But last Friday, ICANN, the Web’s governing body, approved the use of up to 16 languages for the new system. More will follow in the coming years.

Experts have discussed what to do with characters that have several different meanings. This is particularly true of Chinese.

Google, the Internet search-engine company, has announced it will give more than twenty-five million dollars in money and investments to help the poor. The company says the effort involves using the power of information and technology to help people improve their lives. Aleem Walji works for Google.org -- the part of the company that gives money to good causes. He said the company’s first project will help identify where infectious (传染性的) diseases are developing. In Southeast Asia and Africa, for example, Google.org will work with partners to strengthen early-warning systems and take action against growing health threats. Google.org’s second project will invest in ways to help small and medium-sized businesses grow. Walji says microfinance (小额信贷) is generally small, short-term loans that create few jobs. Instead, he says Google.org wants to develop ways to bring investors and business owners together to create jobs and improve economic growth. Google.org will also give money to help two climate-change programs announced earlier this year. One of these programs studies ways to make renewable (再生的) energy less costly than coal-based energy. The other is examining the efforts being made to increase the use of electric cars. The creators of Google have promised to give Google.org about one percent of company profits and one percent of its total stock value every year. Aleem Walji says this amount may increase in the future. 36. The purpose of Google’s investments is to ________. A) help poor people B) develop new technology C) expand its own business D) increase the power of information 37. According to Aleem Walji, the company’s first project is to ________. A) set up a new system to warn people of infectious diseases B) find out where infectious diseases develop C) identify the causes of infectious diseases D) cure patients of infectious diseases 38. What kind of businesses will benefit from Google.org’s second project? A) large enterprises B) cross-national companies C) foreign-funded corporations D) small and medium-sized businesses 39. From the fourth paragraph, we learn that Google’s money is also invested to help ________. A) start more research programs B) make more advanced electric cars C) develop renewable and coal-based energy D) conduct studies related to climate changes 40. From the last paragraph we learn that the investments by Google.org come from ________. A) Google’s profits and stock value B) some international IT companies C) the company’s own interests D) local commercial banks Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45. Your boss holds your future prospects in his hands. Some bosses are hard to get along with. Some have excellent qualifications but no idea when it comes to dealing with people. Of course, not all bosses are like that. The relationship you have with your boss can be a major factor in determining your rise up the career ladder. Your boss is not only your leader, he is also the person best equipped to help you do the job you are paid to do. He can inform you of company direction that may affect your professional development. Your boss also needs you to perform at your best in order to accomplish his objectives. He needs your feedback in order to provide realistic and useful reports to upper management. But how does this help you establish a meaningful working relationship with your boss? The key is communication. Learn and understand his goals and priorities (优先的事). Observe and understand your boss’s work style. If he has not been clear with his expectations, ask! Likewise, ask for feedback and accept criticism gracefully. And if he understands that you do not view your job as just something to fill the hours between 9 and 5, he may be more likely to help you. In short, getting along with your boss requires getting to know his likes and dislikes and learning to work with his personality and management style. 41. The main idea of the first paragraph is that ________. A) bosses are hard to deal with B) bosses have good character C) bosses determine your career future D) bosses must have similar personality 42. In the second paragraph, “rise up the career ladder” (Line 2) means ________. A) going to work abroad B) changing jobs frequently C) being promoted in position D) pursuing an advanced degree 43. In order to achieve his objectives, your boss expects that you will ________. A) do your best in your work B) show your management skills C) get along with your colleagues D) write reports to upper management 44. The most important factor for establishing a good working relationship with the boss is ________. A) high expectations B) quick feedback C) frequent criticism D) effective communication 45. The best title for the passage might be ________. A) How to Take Care Of Your Boss. B) How to Get Along with Your Boss C) How to Accept Your Boss’s Criticism D) How to Accomplish Your Boss’s Objective 答案:36-40:ABDDA 41-45:CCADB Task 3 Directions: The following is an announcement.
