Reading Comprehension Directions: In this part there are 4 passages. Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage One Passage One By adopting a few simple techniques, parents who read to their children can greatly increase their children's language development. It is surprising but true. How parents talk to their children makes a big difference in the children's language development. If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the parent is reading, the child's language skills will increase. A study was done with 30 three-year-old children and their parents. Half of the children participated in the experimental study; the other half acted as the control group. In the experimental group, the parents were given a two-hour training session in which they were taught to ask open-ended questions rather than yes-or-no questions. For example, the parent should ask, "What is the doggie doing?" rather than "Is the doggie running away?" The parents in the experimental group were also instructed in how to help children find answers, how to suggest alternative possibilities and how to praise correct answers. At the beginning of the study, the children did not differ in measures of language development, but at the end of one month, the children in the experimental group showed 5.5 months ahead of the control group on a test of verbal expression and vocabulary. Nine months later, the children in the experimental group still showed an advance of 6 months over the children in the control group. 41、 Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A. Children who talk a lot are more intelligent. B. Parents who listen to their children can teach them more. C. Active children should read more and be given more attention. D. Verbal ability can easily be developed with proper methods. 42、 What does "It" in line 2 can most probably be replaced by? A. Parents' increasing children's language development. B. Reading techniques being simple. C. Parents' reading to children. D. Children's intelligence development. 43、 According to the author, which of the following questions is the best type to ask children about? A. Do you see the elephant? B. Is the elephant in the cage? C. What animals do you like? D. Shall we go to the zoo? 44、 The difference between the control group and the experimental group was ______. A. the training that parents received B. the age of the children C. the books that were read D. the number of the children 45、 The best conclusion we can draw from the passage is that ______. A. parents should be trained to read to their children B. the more children read, the more intelligent they will become C. children's language skills increase when they are required to respond actively D. children who read actively seem six months old Passage Two Passing by a supermarket, I was attracted by a long queue of people with big plastic bags full of kinds of goods they bought outside the gate. I came up with curiosity to find out the puzzle. Handing in this purchase ticket to the girl in charge of the activity, the boy in the front of the queue received a box of chocolate with delicate package. It turned out to be a promotion activity, which would provide a box of chocolate to those who bought more than ten yuan worth of goods and paid one more yuan. It's really good news especially for those who are keen on bargains. Once there was a promotion activity, they were usually easy to go into ecstasies (狂喜;入迷) and bought the goods on impulse, never having time to consider carefully whether they needed the goods desperately or not. I was not an exception. When I was determined to make a purchase, however, finding that there was only nine yuan with myself, I was forced to give up. Nowadays, more and more merchants use their brains to launch bewildering (迷惑人的) promotion activities to attract people's attention, which motivate their consumption. It's merchants who take advantage of people's psychology of taking advantage of petty benefits. From the point of the whole society, consumption stimulates production, which in turn brings up employment opportunities and strengthens the purchase capacity of the whole society. Once people have more money, they can afford and consume more goods. Consequently, the more goods are consumed, the greater incentive (鼓励) for the renewal cycle of products, which results in the progress of industrial technology and the elimination of economic depression. As for one who has little money at his disposal, he'd better consider carefully before making a purchase decision. Otherwise, he has to curtail (削减) his expenditure during the rest of the month. 46、 Why was the boy given a box of chocolate? A. Because he had a purchase ticket. B. Because he was keen on bargains. C. Because the goods he bought cost more than 10 yuan. D. Because he had helped the girl to carry the goods she bought. 47、 People cannot help buying goods they don't actually need when ______. A. there is a promotion activity B. they have enough money C. they have time to go around D. they are with children 48、 I didn't buy the goods during the promotion activity because ______. A. I was not interested in them B. I didn't need the goods C. I didn't have enough money D. I had no time 49、 Which of the following statements is True? A. Nowadays people are not easy to believe the promotion activity. B. Consumption promotion is a way of eliminating economic depression. C. Consumption can stimulate production but cannot bring up employment opportunities. D. That people want to buy better goods with little money is a bad news to the merchants. 50、 For a person who has little money, which of the following is a good proposal? A. Buy more goods during the promotion activities. B. Don't buy any goods during the promotion activities. C. Consider carefully before buying goods. D. Buy things as few as you can. Passage Three It is really a surprise that after hundreds of years, educationists have still failed to design anything more efficient and reliable than examinations. It is claimed that examinations test what you know, but it is common knowledge that they more often do the exact opposite. They may be a good means of testing memory, or the skills of working rapidly under extreme pressure, but they can tell you nothing about a person's true ability. As anxiety-makers, examinations are second to none. That is because so much depends on them. They are the mark of success or failure in our society. Your whole future may be decided in one fateful day. No one can show his best in worry, or after a sleepless night, yet this is precisely what the examination system expects him to do. A good education should, among other things, train you to think for yourself. The examination system, however, does anything but that. What has to be learnt is laid down by a syllabus (教学大纲), so the student is encouraged to memorize. Examinations do not motivate a student to read widely, and they do not enable him to seek more and more knowledge. Furthermore, teachers themselves are often judged by the results of their students' examinations. Consequently, they have to train their students to master exam techniques which they dislike. The most successful candidates are not always the best educated but the best trained. The results on which so much depends are often nothing more than a subjective assessment by some anonymous (匿名的) examiners. They certainly make mistakes, because they have to mark mountains of scripts (答卷) in a limited amount of time. They work under the same sort of pressure as the candidates. 51、 The main idea of this passage is that examinations are ______. A. anxiety-makers B. reliable and efficient C. harmful to education D. good measures of memory 52、 It is clear that the author ______ examinations. A. argues for B. argues against C. is indifferent to D. is interested in 53、 The fate of students is decided by ______ according to the passage. A. examination B. teaching C. education D. learning 54、 According to the author, the most importance of a good education is to ______. A. encourage students to read widely B. teach students how to tackle exams C. train students to think on their own D. encourage students to seek more knowledge 55、 Which statement is NOT mentioned in the passage? A. Examinations can make students anxious. B. The examiners might make mistakes in marking. C. Teachers' work is judged based on the results of examinations. D. Tools better than examinations to test students' ability have been found. Passage Four Vegetable gardening is the relaxing art and science of turning a love for growing plants into a meaningful activity. Having vegetables in the backyard makes home gardening appealing for many people. In addition, vegetable gardening provides exercise and fun for both urban and suburban families. Vegetable gardeners agree that many home-grown vegetables are superior to those purchased from markets. From spring through late fall, a well-planned and well-kept garden can provide a supply of fresh vegetables, thus increasing the nutrition of the family diet. Freezers make it possible to keep some of the vegetables to be enjoyed at a later date. Other vegetables can be stored for a few months in a cool area. Although the money spent for a garden may be little, one cannot escape the fact that gardening requires hard work and time. Many of the gardening tasks must be performed at times that are most inconvenient. Not doing jobs that should be done on a regular basis may result in failure and a negative feeling toward gardening. One should not plant a garden that is too large for him to care for. A small, well-kept garden is more enjoyable and profitable than a large neglected one. Vegetables do well in full sunlight and need at least five or six hours of sun during the middle of the day. Too much shading results in poor plants and few vegetables. If possible, the garden should be near the house, so the gardener can work in it whenever they are free. Soils for vegetables should be easily broken up and porous (多孔的) for quick water drainage and good aeration(透气). Usually the home owner has little choice in the soil type he can choose. Fortunately, many vegetables can be grown on poor soils if the soils are properly prepared. 56、 Many people find home gardening ______. A. expensive and boring B. interesting and enjoyable C. time-consuming and inconvenient D. neither interesting nor enjoyable 57、 A well-planned and well-kept garden can provide a supply of fresh vegetables ______. A. all year round B. whenever you need nutritious food C. for a great part of the year D. throughout spring 58、 The amount of money you spend on your garden ______. A. can be large B. must be large C. can not be large D. must not be small 59、 Which of the following statements is TRUE? A. Vegetables need to have as much shading as possible. B. A small garden is much better than a large one. C. Homeowners can freely choose the soil for their vegetable garden. D. If possible, the vegetable garden should be close to your home. 60、 From the passage we can conclude that ______. A. vegetables need little care while growing B. vegetables can be grown on almost any kind of soil C. vegetable gardening is an indispensable part of life for urban and suburban people D. vegetable gardening is a good pastime for retired people ?. Cloze Test Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank, there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage. Then write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor: you must be able to 61 the attention and interest of your students; you must be a 62 speaker, with a good, strong, 63 voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to 64 what you are teaching in order to make its meaning clear. 65 a good teacher and you will see that he does not sit still 66 his class: he stands the whole time when he is teaching; he walks about, using his 67 , hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will 68 the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always 69 according to what he is 70 about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn't 71 that he will indeed be able to act 72 on the stage, for there are very important 73 between the teacher's work and the actor's. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the 74 words each time he plays a certain part; 75 his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually 76 beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem 77 on the stage. A good teacher 78 in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his 79 ; they ask and answer questions; they obey orders; and if they don't understand something, they will say so. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his students. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must 80 it as he goes along. 61、 A. pay B. hold C. give D. know 62、 A. clear B. slow C. quick D. loud 63、 A. frightening B. fearing C. exciting D. pleasing 64、 A. act B. talk C. say D. repeat 65、 A. Listen B. Look C. Watch D. Observe 66、 A. for B. before C. behind D. with 67、 A. tongue B. words C. sound D. arms 68、 A. hear B. see C. think D. guess 69、 A. making B. changing C. expressing D. giving 70、 A. talking B. thinking C. hearing D. saying 71、 A. tell B. express C. show D. mean 72、 A. good B. badly C. well D. actively 73、 A. things B. differences C. points D. jobs 74、 A. different B. same C. above D. following 75、 A. just B. never C. ever D. even 76、 A. read B. known C. fixed D. written 77、 A. natural B. real C. false D. clear 78、 A. is B. works C. has D. teaches 79、 A. group B. party C. class D. parlor 80、 A. invent B. discover C. teach D. continue ?. Translation Directions: In this part, there is one passage in English. Read the passage carefully and translate it into Chinese. 81、How do you learn about topical events? Where can you find out about things which are happening every day all over the world? You can read newspapers, listen to the radio or watch television. These three methods of communication bring daily news to millions of people everywhere. They are known as the mass media. The main job of a newspaper is to inform us about what is going on in the world. Newspapers are probably the least entertaining of the media, but they are the most informative. The news is gathered by reporters. The editor of a newspaper decides which items of news to publish and which page they will appear on. It is also his job to make sure that the piece is not too long, that the story is interesting and that people will be able to understand it when they read it. TV and radio stations also have reporters. They interview people and their interviews are filmed. The news editor decides which pieces of film to use in the television news every evening. Radio interviews are tape-recorded. An important source of world news for the broadcasting media is news agencies. There are several worldwide news agencies which employ correspondents in different places all over the world to make reports. These reports are gathered at the agencies' headquarters and then sent overseas by teleprinters. One of the most important jobs of the news editors at the radio and TV stations is re-writing these reports, for they are originally written for people to read in newspapers and magazines. Written language is often much more formal than spoken language, therefore they have to be re-written so that they sound natural when the news reader reads them over the air. ?. Writing 82、Directions: For this part, you are required to write a composition of 120 to 180 words. You should base your composition on the title and outline given below. Should College Students Establish a Business? (1)有人认为大学生应该创业，理由是…… (2)有人认为大学生不应该创业，理由是…… (3)你的看法。 答案: ?. Vocabulary and Structure 1、A [解析] 句意:除非你更努力学习，否则别指望我会帮助你。词语搭配题。空格处后面跟的是动词不定式结构to help you，而在四个选项中，只有expect一个选项在意思上与句意相符，且能构成expect sb. to do sth. 的结构，因此本题选A。 2、D [解析] 句意:现在正在讨论的问题是新工厂该建在哪里。本题考查现在分词被动语态的用法。由句子结构可知，The question属于句子的主语，且空格处内容是对The question的修饰，又由now一词可知，这里表示动作正在进行，由于问题是被讨论，需要使用被动语态，所以D是正确答案。 3、A [解析] 句意:为了去环球旅行，约翰决定放弃现在的工作。词义辨析题。根据句意，约翰为了能去环球旅行，决定不再从事现在的工作，give up(放弃)符合句子意思，其他三个词组的意思均与句子意思不符，故A为正确答案。 4、B [解析] 句意:和以前的老房子相比，麦克的新房子看起来就像是一座宫殿。词语搭配题。compare with sb./sth.表示“和……相比”，是固定搭配，故B为正确答案。 5、C [解析] 句意:电脑技术使得人们在家工作成为可能。词义辨析题。空格处的形容词需要表达的意思是“可能的，可行的”，由此可知C为正确答案。harmful:有害的;serious:严重的;difficult:困难的;三个选项的意思都与句意不符，都可以排除。 6、A [解析] 句意:听到他们已经开始和贵公司进行商业合作的消息，我们很高兴。本题考查的是同位语从句。分析句子结构可知空格后的句子是news的同位语从句，因此空格处应为同位语从句的引导词，且在这个从句中不充当句子成分，故本题选A。 7、B [解析] 句意:设计这个电脑程序的目的是使在线阅读变得简单。词语搭配题。for the purpose of是固定搭配，意为“为了……，目的是”。A、C、D三个选项都不能与for the...of构成符合句子意思的搭配，因此B为正确答案。 8、C [解析] 句意:此次商业会谈将在下周贵公司的首席执行官抵达后举行。本题考查的是一般将来时的用法。句中有明显的时间状语next week，因此句子需要使用一般将来时，且主语business talk与谓语动词hold之间是动宾关系，因此需要使用一般将来时的被动语态，即will be done的结构，故本题选C。 9、A [解析] 句意:太吵了，我们发现很难再将谈话进行下去。词义辨析题。本句中so...that结构表示“如此……以至于”，根据本句的意思可知此处需要选择一个表示“进行”的短语，B、C、D的意思均不符合句意要求，可以排除，故A为正确答案。 10、D [解析] 句意:除非你在三天之内改变主意，否则订单将不能取消。本题考查条件状语从句。根据句意可知，空格后的句子应为条件状语从句，因此空格处应为条件状语引导词，unless意为“除非，若不”，可作连词，引导条件状语从句，故应选D。A选项后面常跟虚拟语气，B选项后面常跟时间状语从句，C选项常引导结果状语从句。 11、D [解析] 句意:我们同意认可任何一个他们认为是最佳导游的人。本题考查宾语从句。考生们最易把此题答案误选成C，误把这个引导宾语从句的连接代词当成they think的宾语。实际上，they think仅是插入语。做这类题的简单办法便是暂时去掉插入语，句子结构便容易看清了。这个连接代词除了要引导宾语从句外，还要担任宾语从句的主语，故必须选主格的连接代词才正确，故选D。 12、B [解析] 句意:除了英国，在其他任何国度里人们都不可能在一天之内体验到四季(的气候变化)。词 语搭配题。A(比……多，比……更……;B(除了……之外;C(而不是;D(比……更好。句子前面有否定词no与other than搭配起来就构成了否定之否定，意思就成了“除了英国之外别国都不=只有在英国才能”，故选B。 13、A [解析] 句意:要不是当时叔叔借钱给我交学费，我这会儿还在农场干活呢。本题考查虚拟语气。本题是一个错综时间条件句，由时间状语可知，条件状语从句虚拟的是过去动作，而主句虚拟的是现在动作。因此从句谓语应用过去完成时即had done的形式，且可省略If并把had提至句首，故选A。 14、A [解析] 句意:尽管他没经验，他还是在其他那些有经验的科研人员失败的领域里取得了成功。本题考查状语从句。主句中的succeed作为“成功”解时是不及物动词，如果其后要接宾语从句需用介词in才行。既然此处没有介词in，那么后面接的就只能是由连接副词引导的状语从句。而B为连接代词，只能引导名词性从句，因而首先排除;C为关系代词，引导定语从句可排除;D虽为连接副词也能引导方式状语从句，但与主句意思不合，故也排除。A为连接副词，可引导地点状语从句，表示“成功的领域”，故选A。 15、A [解析] 句意:我想知道明天的天气是否会有一点改变。词语搭配题。a little bit是固定词组，意为“有一点，有几分”。 16、A [解析] 句意:如果把这些花移到温室里，它们很快就会开放。词义辨析题。bring:带来，拿来，把……移至……;push:推动，挤;harvest:收割，收获;wave:挥手，招手。根据句子意思，A最恰当。 17、D [解析] 句意:我本应该记得去把信寄给我的父母，但我太忙了。本题考查的是情态动词的用法。由逗号后面的句子可知，前半句表达的意思应该是“我本应该记得去寄(但是实际上我没寄)”。符合此意的只有D项。should+have done结构表示“过去应该做某事而没有做”。A、C项表示“记得”;B项表示“一定要记得”，与句意不符。 18、C [解析] 句意:他几乎不知道这个地区自然资源这么丰富。本题考查的是倒装结构。否定副词或含有否定词的短语放在句首时，句子要用部分倒装。本句中是将little放在句首，应用倒装结构，并将助动词提到主语前，故选C。 19、A [解析] 句意:他上周买的家具很时髦。本题考查的是时态及主谓一致的问题。分析句子结构可知，本句的主语是The furniture，其后是一个定语从句。句子主体结构为主系表结构。因为是描述客观事实，所以谓语动词应用一般现在时，排除C和D项。英语中，furniture为不可数名词，所以当其作主语时，后面的谓语动同应用单数形式。 20、D [解析] 句意:天太黑了，所以我没注意她的连衣裙是什么款式的。词义辨析题。set:一组，一套;sample:样品，标本;type:种类，类型;pattern:样式，模式，款式。根据句子意思，D项最恰当。 21、A [解析] 句意:有许多种金属，每一种都是有它自己的特性。本题考查独立主格结构。当现在分词的主语与句子主语不一致时，现在分词可与其逻辑主语构成独立主格结构，在句中作状语表伴随、方式等，分析小题句子结构可知A项为正确答案。 22、B [解析] 句意:在他看来，人生的成功主要取决于我们与其他人如何相处。词义辨析题。keep on意为“继续”;depend on意为“依靠，取决下”;insist on意为“坚决要求，执意”;spend sth. on意为“花费，度过”。根据句意，选B。 23、D [解析] 句意:到下个月底，我们将完成桥的建设。本题考查将来完成时。由时间状语“by the end of next month”可知本句应用将来完成时，表示在将来某一时间已经完成的动作。 24、A [解析] 句意:我们公司的服务遍及世界上近80个国家。词义辨析题。available意为“可获得的，可用的”;natural意为“自然的，惯常的”;relative意为“比较的，有关……的”;careful意为“小心的，谨慎的”。根据句意，选A最合适。 25、B [解析] 句意:去年正是在约翰逊的旅馆里举行了商务会议。本题考查强调句型。强调句型的基本结构为:It is/was+被强调部分+that+主语+其他部分。故本题应选B，强调的部分为地点状语。 26、C [解析] 句意:我们将不得不为他们的服务支付一大笔钱。词语搭配题。四个选项中能与a large搭配并修饰不可数名词money的只有amount，构成短语a large amount of，意为“许多，大量”。 27、B [解析] 句意:如果你能告诉我怎样操作这台机器我会非常感激。本题考查非谓语动词。疑问词可以与不定式连用，构成不定式短语，在句子中可作主语、宾语、表语等成分。本句中不定式短语作动词tell的宾语。 28、C [解析] 句意:很遗憾地告诉你，你想要的那种材料卖完了。词义辨析题。take off意为“脱下，起飞”;put up意为“增加，提高，张贴”;sell out/be sold out意为“售空，卖光”;get off意为“动身，出发”。根据句意，选C。 29、A [解析] 句意:很明显，这些小企业需要技术支持。固定搭配题。in need of sth.意为“需要某物”，是固定搭配。 D 30、 [解析] 句意:就我而言，先得到一份工作尤为重要。连词词义辨析题。as long as意为“只要”;as well as意为“也”;as soon as意为“一……就……”;as far as意为“就……来说”。根据句意，选D。 31、B [解析] 句意:员工的平均工资约为五十美元。词义辨析题。average:平均的，中等的;usual:通常的;equal:相等的;common:共同的，公共的。 32、C [解析] 句意:许多人申请了这个空缺的职位。词义辨析题。vacant:空的，未被占用的，职位空缺的;empty:空的(中间没有东西的);bare:赤裸的，无遮掩的，没有修饰的;blank:空白的，没有写字的。 33、A [解析] 句意:然后他换上工作服，在接下来的八个小时里做清洁工作。词义辨析题。change into:变成，换衣服;exchange for:交换;alter:改变;turn into:(使)变成。 34、C [解析] 句意:委员会正在开会，谁都不许进入大厅。词语搭配题。session与in搭配，中间不加冠词，表示“正在开会，正在开庭”。 35、D [解析] 句意:因为我确信珍妮是非常诚实的，所以我不相信她偷了钱。词义辨析题。doubt:不能确定，不相信，怀疑;其后常接if/whether或that从句。A(猜测)和B(相信)的意思不符合题意。suspect:怀疑，觉得(尤指坏事可能是事实)。若是换成suspect，此句的意思就成了“因为我相信珍妮是非常诚实的，所以我觉得她偷了钱”，显然意思上也不符合题意。故D为正确答案。 36、C [解析]

as...can的意思是“尽……最大能力;尽可能”，因此，选择答案D。 38、A [解析] 句意:我们系有很多藏书，其中很多是英语书。该题考查的是非限制性定语从句，即定语从 句和先行词之间有逗号隔开。非限制性定语从句和主句的关系比较松散，只起补充说明的作用，即使 省略也不影响主句意思的完整。修饰物时，只能用which来引导，that不能引导非限制性定语从句。 因此，本题中用many of which引导非限制性定语从句，选择A选项。 39、B [解析] 句意:这位教授虽然年纪大了，但仍在尽力学习一门新语言。本题考查倒装句。as引导让步 状语从句时，意为“尽管，虽然”，通常从句要用倒装，即把从句的表语或状语放as之前。所以选B。 40、B [解析] 句意:你花钱太大手大脚不加节制了，我觉得你必须多少减少点开支。词义辨析题。cut off: 切断;cut down:减少，削减;cut out:割掉，剪下;cut across:超出……的界限。根据句 意选cut down。 ?.

Translation 81、你是怎样了解大事件的?你是从哪儿知道全世界每天正在发生的事情的?你可以读报纸，听广播 或者看电视。这三种交流方式给各地千百万人民带来当天的新闻。它们被总称为大众传媒。 报纸的主要工作就是告诉我们世界上正在发生什么。在所有的传播媒体中，报纸也许是趣味性 最小的，但提供的消息却最多。新闻由记者搜集一报纸上登载哪几条新闻，它们各登在哪一版上，则 由报纸编辑决定。编辑还得确保一条新闻不太长，故事有趣，人们能够读得懂。 电视台和广播电台也有记者。他们采访群众，并将采访过程摄制下来。新闻编辑则决定每天晚 上的电视新闻采用哪几条采访录像。广播采访是把声音录下来。对于广播媒体来说，世界新闻的重要 来源是通讯社。几家世界通讯社在全世界不同地区雇用记者采制新闻报道。这些报道由总部收集起来， 然后用电传发往海外。广播电视台新闻编辑的重要任务之一就是改写这些报道，因为这些报道最初是 写出来登在报纸杂志上让人阅读的。书面语言往往比口头语言正式得多，因此编辑得加以改写，以便 让新闻播音员在播音的时候听起来自然些。 ?. Writing 82、Should College Students Establish a Business? At present, more and more college students have begun to establish businesses, and there is no consensus of opinion among people about it. Some people are for the view that college students should establish businesses. On the one hand, it is favorable for integrating theory with practice and promoting teachers' work. On the other hand, it is beneficial to train students' innovation abilities and arouse the students' interest in learning. While others take an opposite view, firmly believing that students should not establish businesses. They argue that college students' main task is to learn knowledge and lay a good foundation for a future career, and that establishing businesses will make them neglect their studies. As for me, the former notion is preferable in many senses, because university students' pioneering work can realize their personal value and cultivate their individual abilities.
