NPR has ended its contract with Juan Williams, one of its senior news analysts, after he made comments about Muslims on the Fox News Channel.
NPR said in a statement that it gave Mr. Williams notice of his ending in this organization on Wednesday night.
The move came after Mr. Williams, who is also a Fox News political analyst, appeared on the “The O’Reilly Factor” on Monday. On the show, the host, Bill O’Reilly, asked him to respond to the idea that the United States was facing a “Muslim dilemma(窘境).”Mr. O’Reilly said, “The cold truth is that in the world today jihad(圣戰(zhàn)), helped and encouraged by some Muslim nations, is the biggest threat on the planet.”
Mr. Williams said he agreed with Mr. O'Reilly.
He continued: “You know the kind of books I've written about the civil rights movement in this country. But when I get on the plane. I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim clothing and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and known as Muslim. I get worried. I get nervous. ”
Mr. Williams also made reference to the Pakistani immigrant who was guilty this month trying to plant a car bomb in Times Square. “He said the war with Muslims, America's war is just beginning, first drop of blood. I don’t think there’s any way to get away from these facts,” Mr. Williams said.
NPR said in its statement that the remarks “were inconsistent with our editorial standards and practices, and weakened his reputation as a news analyst with NPR”
The public radio organization said it thanked him for many years of service. Mr. Williams did
not immediately respond on Wednesday night to an e-mail seeking comment.
Mr. Williams' contributions on Fox raised eyebrows at NPR in the past. In February 2009, NPR said it had asked that he stop being identified on “The O’Reilly Factor” as a “senior correspondent for NPR,” even though that title was accurate.
According to the passage, NPR is probably_ .
A. a TV station B. a public radio organization
C. a newspaper D. a website
NPR has ended its contract with Juan Williams because
A. Juan Williams made comments on the Fox News Channel without NPR's permission
B. NPR was disappointed about Juan Williams’ performance in its programs
C. Juan Williams' remarks about Muslims ruined NPR's reputation
D. Juan Williams' comments and performances didn't agree with NPR's traditions

C. Muslims are sometimes considered dangerous to the safety of the world.
D. Juan Williams looks down upon Muslims.

It was a cold grey day in late November. The weather had changed overnight, when a backing wind brought a pale sky and a muzzling rain with it, and although it was now only a little after two o’clock in the afternoon the gray of a winter evening seemed to have closed upon the hills, surrounding them in mist. It would be dark by four. The leather seats felt damp to the hands, and there must have been a small crack in the roof, because now and again little drips of rain fell softly through, polluting the leather and leaving a dark – blue stain like a spot of ink. The wind came in, at times shaking the coach as it traveled round the bend of the road, and in the exposed places on the high ground it blew with such force that the whole body of the coach trembled and swayed, rocking between the high wheels like a drunken man.
The driver, muffled (裹。 in a greatcoat to his ears, bent almost double in his seat in a faint endeavor to gain shelter from his own shoulders. The few passengers pressed together for warmth, exclaiming all together when the coach sank into a heavier rut (車轍) than usual, and one old fellow, who had kept up a constant complaint ever since he had joined the coach at Truro, rose from his seat in anger; and, feeling with the window – frame, let the window down with a crash, bringing a shower of rain upon himself and his fellow – passengers. He thrust his head out and shouted up to the driver, scolding him in a angry voice for a rogue and a murderer; that they would all be dead before they reached Bodmin if he persisted in driving at dangerous speed; they had no breath left in their bodies as it was, and he would never travel by coach again.
41.What is the main image the author gives in this description?
A.In terrible weather, a coach was running fast in mud with complaining passengers on it.
B.On a cold and rainy day the coach broke and the driver was repairing it on the road.
C.On a cold night the driver and the passengers felt very cold and struggled in the rain.
D.The bad condition of the road resulted in the bad mood of the passengers.
42.Which of the following is correct according to the text?
A.The windows were tightly closed, so the cold air was kept outside the coach.
B.The spot of ink stained leather, so the seats felt damp to the hands.
C.Most probably the roof of the coach was broken.
D.There was a drunken man swaying constantly on the coach.
43.The expression “muffled in a greatcoat to… his own shoulders” implies .
A.the driver felt very cold and tried to change his seat
B.the driver felt comfortable by doing in that way
C.The driver felt very cold and tried to gain warmth
D.The driver tried to protect his ears and shoulders
44.We can learn from the text that .
A.the coach was running slowly due to the bad weather
B.a(chǎn)n old passenger who got on the coach at Truro was angry about the windows
C.one of the passengers on the coach was a murderer
D.the few passengers let out exclamations as the coach moved violently

It was eleven o'clock that night when Mr. Pontellier returned from his night out. He was in an excellent humor, in high spirits, and very talkative. His entrance awoke his wife, who was in bed and fast asleep when he came in. He talked to her while he undressed, telling her anecdotes and bits of news and gossip that he had gathered during the day. She was overcome with sleep, and answered him with little half utterances.
He thought it very discouraging that his wife, who was the sole object of his existence, showed so little interest in things which concerned him and valued so little his conversation.
Mr. Pontellier had forgotten the candies and peanuts that he had promised the boys. Still, he loved them very much and went into the room where they slept to take a look at them and make sure that they were resting comfortably. The result of his investigation was far from satisfactory. He turned and shifted the youngsters about in bed. One of them began to kick and talk about a basket full of crabs.
Mr. Pontellier returned to his wife with the information that Raoul had a high fever and needed looking after. Then he lit his cigar and went and sat near the open door to smoke it.
Mrs. Pontellier was quite sure Raoul had no fever. He had gone to bed perfectly well, she said, and nothing had made him sick. Mr. Pontellier was too well familiar with fever symptoms to be mistaken. He assured her the child was burning with fever at that moment in the next room.
He reproached his wife with her inattention, her habitual neglect of the children. If it was not a mother's place to look after children, whose on earth was it? He himself had his hands full with his business. He could not be in two places at once; making a living for his family on the street, and staying home to see that no harm done to them. He talked in a dull, repeated and insistent way.
Mrs. Pontellier sprang out of bed and went into the next room. She soon came back and sat on the edge of the bed, leaning her head down on the pillow. She said nothing, and refused to answer her husband when he questioned her. When his cigar was smoked out, he went to bed, and in half a minute was fast asleep.
Mrs. Pontellier was by that time thoroughly awake. She began to cry a little, and wiped her eyes on the sleeve of her nightdress. She went out on the porch, where she sat down and began to rock herself in the chair.
It was then past midnight. The cottages were all dark. There was no sound except the hooting of an old owl and the everlasting voice of the sea, which broke like a mournful lullaby (催眠曲) upon the night.
The tears came so fast to Mrs. Pontellier's eyes that the damp sleeve of her nightdress no longer served to dry them. She went on crying there, not caring any longer to dry her face, her eyes, her arms.
She could not have told why she was crying. Such experiences as had just happened were not uncommon in her married life. They seemed never before to have weighed much against theabundance (充足) of her husband's kindness and a uniform devotion which had come to be self-understood.
An indescribable oppression, which seemed to generate in some unfamiliar part of her consciousness, filled her whole being with vague pain. It was like a shadow, like a mist passing across her soul's summer day. It was strange and unfamiliar; it was a mood. She did not sit there inwardly scolding her husband, expressing sadness about Fate, which had directed her footsteps to the path which they had taken. She was just having a good cry all to herself.
The mosquitoes succeeded in driving away a mood which might have held her there in the darkness half a night longer.
The following morning Mr. Pontellier was up in good time to take the carriage which was to convey him to the ship. He was returning to the city to his business, and they would not see him again at the Island till the coming Saturday. He had regained his calmness, which seemed to have been somewhatweakened the night before. He was eager to be gone, as he looked forward to a lively week in the financial center.
1.Mr.Pontellier comes back home from his night out in a/an ______state of mind.
A.excited B.confused C.depressed D.disappointed
2. Mr. Pontellier criticizes his wife because ______.
A.she is not wholly devoted to her children
B.she does little housework but sleep
C.she knows nothing about fever symptoms
D.she fails to take her son to hospital
3.The writer would most likely describe Mr. Pontellier’s conduct during the evening as ______.
A.impatient and generous B.enthusiastic and responsible
C.concerned and gentle D.inconsiderate and self-centered
4.The underlined sentence suggests that Mr. Pontellier's complaints to his wife are ______.
A.hesitant and confused B.not as urgent as he claims
C.a(chǎn)ngry and uncertain D.too complex to make sense
5.In paragraphs 8 to 13, Mrs. Pontellier’s reactions to her husband’s behavior suggest that ______.
A.she accepts unquestioningly her role of taking care of the children
B.this is one of the first times she has acknowledged her unhappiness with her husband
C.her relationship with her husband is not what has made her depressed
D.she is angry about something that happened before her husband left
6.The passage shows Mr. Pontellier is happiest when he ______.
A.sits near the open door smoking a cigar and talking
B.makes up with his wife after a heated argument
C.has been away from home or is about to leave home
D.has given his children gifts of candies and peanuts
