单选题{{B}}Passage Three{{/B}} Her Dual Citizenship Brings Prejudice 她的双重国籍导致了偏见 She is Vietnam's top-ranked female tennis player.Still，Noel Huynh Mai Huynh is criticized by the state-run press and jeered by Vietnamese crowds who do not accept her as one of their own. "I play tennis for my family，"Huynh said before the Southeast Asian Games，a regional competition that runs through Saturday."There's a lot of pressure because I know a lot of people, they don't like me very much." Huynh，18，was born in the US territory of Guam.She is the first"Viet kieu."or overseas Vietnamese，to receive dual citizenship from the Vietnam government to compete for Vietnam. Huynh was four years old when her family moved back to Ho Chi Minh City(formerly Saigon) in 1989.She did not speak Vietnamese then but has since mastered the language and now considers herself more Vietnamese than American. Still，many are wary.She is thought of as spoiled because of her American passport.It doesn't seem to matter that she's never been on the US mainland. She and her four siblings—all accomplished tennis players—have been passed over for less talented Vietnamese players. "We practice in Vietnam，we grew up in Vietnam...and they cannot beat us so they try to keep us out of competitions so we don't beat them，"said brother，Jean-Pierre Qui Phu Huynh Jr. The 65-year-old family patriarch，also named Jean-Pierre，is their inspiration.In perfect English，he recounts the path that led him from Vietnam in 1975 and back 14 years later. He fought for the US-backed South Vietnamese army and was the tennis coach for former President Nguyen Van Thieu.He put his wife and children on one of the last helicopters leaving the US Embassy before Saigon fell April 30，1975.He spent the next six months searching for his family，finding them in California. They moved to Guam，where French.educated Jean-Pierre became a top tennis player with a big house and booming business building tennis coups.Still，something was missing.So he decided to go home in 1987. The family，all US citizens，returned to Vietnam two years later.Most refugees were too scared to think of visiting them. The elder Huynh coached his children up to eight hours a day，six days a week，and tried to make sure they got to play. He became friends with former Prime Minister Vo Van Kiet，a tennis fan,and built the country's largest tennis complex in Ho Chi Minh City.He brought in international tennis competitions and urged Vietnam to strengthen its national team.Still，the discrimination persisted. "I don't care about anybody who cheers for the other player，"his daughter said."It's OK for me，but sometimes I'm kind of sad about that because I'm on the national team but thev alwavs want the other players to beat me." With Vietnam hosting the Southeast Asian Games for the first time and encouraging about 2.5 million Viet kieu to return，she was given a chance at this event. "With the participation of Huynh Mai Huynh，the Vietnamese tennis team will be stronger，" said Nguyen Hong Minh，head of the Vietnamese SEA Games sports delegation."This is in our policy to expand international relations as well as win the support of the overseas Vietnamese community." She was eliminated from doubles and mixed doubles.Her strength is singles.but she said her coaches didn't select her for that event. Huynh says all she wants is to represent the country she considers home. "I'll stay here，"she said，"and I'll play for Vietnam forever."

单选题With the possible exception of equal rights, perhaps the most 41 issue across the United States today is the death penalty. Many argue that it is an effective deterrent to murder, 42 others maintain there is no convincing evidence that the death penalty reduces the number of murders. The principal argument 43 by those opposed to the death penalty, basically, is that it is cruel and inhuman 44 , that it is the mark of a 45 society, and finally that it is of 46 effectiveness as a deterrent to crime anyway. In our opinion, the death penalty is a 47 evil. Throughout recorded history there have always been those extreme individuals in every society who were 48 of terribly violent crimes such as murder. But some are more extreme than others. For example, it is one thing to 49 the life of another in a fit of blind rage, 50 quite another to coldly plot and 51 the murder of one or more people in the style of a butcher. Thus, murder 52 all other crimes, is a matter of relative degree. While it could be argued with some conviction, that the 53 in the first instance should be merely isolated from society, such should not be the fate of the 54 type murder. The value of the death penalty as a deterrent to crime may be open to debate. But the 55 majority of citizens believe that he death penalty protects them. Their belief is 56 by evidence which shows that the death penalty deters murder. 57 , from 1954 to 1963, when the death penalty was 58 imposed in California, the murder rate remained between three and four murders for each 100,000 population. Since 1964 the death penalty has been 59 only once, and the murder rate has risen to 10.4 murders for each 100,000 population. The sharp climb in the state"s murder rate, which began when executions stopped, is no 60 .

单选题 {{U}}Elle Woods has it all{{/U}}. She's the president of her sorority, a Hawaiian Tropic girl, {{U}}Miss June in her campus calendar{{/U}}, and, above all, a natural blonde. She dates the cutest fraternity boy on campus and wants nothing more than to be Mrs. Warner Huntington Ⅲ. But, there's just one thing stopping Warner from popping the question: Elle is too blonde. Growing up across the street from Aaron Spelling might mean something in LA, but nothing to Warner's East-Coast blue blood family. So, when Warner packs up for Harvard Law and reunites with an old sweetheart from prep school, Elle rallies all her resources and gets into Harvard, determined to win him back. But law school is a far cry from the comforts of her poolside and the mall. Elle must wage the battle of her life, for her guy, for herself and for ail the blondes who suffer endless indignities every day. "Legally Blonde" is an American comedy which was released in 2001 wordwide. The heroine is played by Reese Witherspoon, who does well in the movie. In my opinion, strictly, "Legally Blonde" is a not-so-bright comedy. Why? The combination of a beautiful but silly blonde and the strict but dull law school makes inconsistent musical notation. But I am well disposed to the lovely girl at the same time. There are a lot of reasons. For one thing, the outstanding performance of Reese Witherspoon makes a deep impression on my mind. For another, the magic and special character of the heroine Elle moves me. She is sensitive to fashion and good at making up, but not the {{U}}silly Billy{{/U}}. Her perfect observation also lights up our eyes. When she went to visit the prisoner, with a CalvinKlein blouse, a suit of Clinique and the last Cosmo, who could doubt her ability to get the trust? When she won the case by her experience about her life, nobody could deny that sometimes {{U}}a handful of common sense was worth a bushel of learning.{{/U}}

单选题The Disaster of Terrorism 恐怖主义的灾难 by Craig Kielburger New York has an energy of its own, and that late summer evening, I truly understood why. All around me the city was alive with activity as everyone headed in different directions. The Big Apple's fabled ambition, wealth, and power were on full display, in the sleek cars stopped by the curb, the bright windows of the bustling restaurants, and the studied nonchalance of stylish young people out on the town. As I cut through the financial district, I passed the Twin Towers, shimmering in the streetlights. Then came the next morning. Even before I heard what was happening, it was clear that something was terribly wrong: there was an unfamiliar edge of desperation to the city's usual hectic pace. At a friend's house, uneasy but unsure why, I turned on the TV news. Within seconds, I saw one, then another, plane crash into the World Trade Center. Time stopped．I was hit by the sickening realization that what I was seeing was real. I found it difficult to breathe as I stared blankly at the television scene. The horror hit me in waves, each more intense than the last. A short distance away, people were injured, trapped, and dying. America was under attack. Again and again, the brutal images flashed by. The city was in a state of emergency. People were being told to stay inside and off the phones. Airports were closed, bridges clogged． That evening there was a knock on the door. On the doorstep stood a ragged man looking frightened and shaken, covered with a thick layer of dust. His eyes were wide and strangely glazed, and his body seemed to tremble. He turned out to be one of the few to have made it out of the World Trade Center alive. As my host and I later learned, this man had spent the day wandering the city-in shock, trying to get through to his wife on his cell phone. When he finally reached her, tearful and happy beyond belief, she had reminded him that an acquaintance, my host, lived in the areA．And so he stood there confused and full of apologies, unsure of what to say or do. Of course, he was immediately invited in. No sooner did he step across the threshold than he collapsed into a nearby chair. He would later say it was a miracle he was still alive. The events that day rocked me to the core. Grieving for those affected, I realized that had things been different, I might have been at the World Trade Center myself. In the midst of my sadness and fear, I felt profoundly grateful to be alive. Twenty-four hours earlier, caught up in meeting after meeting, my biggest problem had seemed to be adding a few more hours onto the day. Now that world seemed so far away. Reeling from the tragedy, I realized that each and every hour I had was a blessing that not everyone would enjoy. I vowed never again to think of time as a problem-but only as a privilege.
