[填空题]Greg Louganis:
These were the trials for the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, Korea. Until this dive, I had been ahead. But now, something else was more significant than winning. I might have endangered other divers’ lives if I have spilled blood in the pool. For what I knew—that few others knew—was that I was HIV-positive. AIDS forced me to stop diving; I had to quit diving professionally after the Olympics.
Margaret Chan:
It is reported that almost three million people in developing countries are now receiving drugs for HIV. This is an increase of almost one million people from two thousand and six. Still, the hope was to reach three million by two thousand and five. But antiretroviral therapy, or ART, alone will not solve the problem. For every two persons we manage to provide them with ART, another five persons get infected. So again, we cannot underestimate the power of prevention.

[单项选择]Civil trials often involve great complexities that are beyond the capacities of jurors to understand. As a result, jurors’ decisions in such trials are frequently incorrect. Justice would therefore be better served if the more complex trials were decided by judges rather than juries.
The argument above depends on which of the following assumptions
A. A majority of civil trials involve complexities that jurors are not capable of understanding.
B. The judges who would decide complex civil trials would be better able to understand the complexities of those trials than jurors are.
C. The judges who would preside over civil trials would disallow the most complex sorts of evidence from being introduced into those trials.
D. Jurors’ decisions are frequently incorrect even in those civil trials that do not involve great complexities.
E. (E) The sole reason in favor of having juries decide civil trials is the supposition that their decisions will almost always be correct.

[单项选择]Juries in criminal trials do not base verdicts on uncorroborated testimony given by any one witness. Rightly so, because it is usually prudent to be highly skeptical of unsubstantiated claims made by any one person. But then, to be consistent, juries should end an all-too-common practice: convicting defendants on the basis of an uncorroborated full confession. Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument above
A. Juries often acquit in cases in which a defendant retracts a full confession made before trial.
B. The process of jury selection is designed to screen out people who have a firm opinion about the defendant’s guilt in advance of the trial.
C. Defendants sometimes make full confessions when they did in fact do what they are accused of doing and have come to believe that the prosecutor has compelling proof of this.
D. Highly suggestible people who are accused of wrongdoing sometimes become so unsure of their own recollection of the past that they can come to accept the accusations made against them.
E. (E) Many people believe that juries should not convict defendants who have not made a full confession.

[单项选择]Greg Woodburn, a sophomore at the University of Southern California, spends a lot of time cleaning sneakers. Some of them once belonged to him; some belonged to his friends. But soon the shoes will have new owners: underprivileged children in the United States and 20 other countries, thanks to Woodburn’s Share Our Soles (S.O.S.) charity.
"I started thinking about all the things I got from running—the health benefits, the friendships, the confidence," he says. "And I realized there are children who don’t even have shoes." Woodburn gathered up his own stash of slightly worn sneakers, then put out a call to teammates and the town. His goal was to have 100 pairs by this Christmas. When the count climbed to more than 500 pairs, he decided to turn the shoe drive into a year-round endeavor.
Back then, the sneakers came from donation boxes at the YMCA (Young Men’s Christian Association) and the local sporting goods store and from door-to-door pickups. Woodburn has now set up collecti
