When I asked my daughter which item she would keep: the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the TV, or her boyfriend, she said “the phone”. Personally, I could do without the phone, which makes me unusual. Anyway, the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology.
Point 1
The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic. My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to her classmates or friends at school. If the phone didn’t appear, would she have anything to talk about?
Point 2
The mobile phone means that we are never alone. “The mobile saved my life.” says a woman who once had an accident in her car. Trapped inside, she managed to call the ambulance (救护车) to save her.
Point 3
The mobile takes away our private time. It allows the marketing manager of any company to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time of day to ask where they are, where they are going, and how their last meeting went.
Point 4
The telephone separates us. Antonella Bramante in Rome says. “We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near — but we didn’t meet for the first two weeks!”
Point 5
The telephone allows us to reach out beyond(超越) our own lives. Today we can talk to
several strangers at the same time on chat lines (At least my daughter does. I wouldn’t know what to talk about). Actually, we can talk across the world. And, with the phone, we can also surf the Internet.
41．What does point 1 try to tell us?
A．People communicate less because of the creating of the telephone.
B．People communicate more since telephone has been created.
C．People communicate more because of more traffic.
42．Which points show that telephones have improved people’s life?
a. Point 1.
b. Point 2.
c. Point 3.
d. Point 4.
e. Point 5.
A．b, c B．a, d C．b, e

A．people in separate offices can be friends with the help of mobile phones
B．the telephone is changing our lives like other pieces of technology
C．people can talk to some strangers at the same time through the phone
44．Which of the following best shows the writer’s opinion towards mobile phones? A．Mobile phones are so important and should be encouraged.
B．Mobile phones make life easier while leave little secret to people.
C．Mobile phones help people deal with the things that happen suddenly.

My son is now studying in college. He sometimes talked with me about some of his experiences or confusions(困惑). He didn’t know what to do when he thought the teachers were wrong.

When he ____63____ my paper, I was shocked. There was a big red “X” through each
of my answers. I had failed. There had to be some mistakes! I had written down ____64____ what Mr. Taylor said. Then I realized that everyone in the class had failed. Because this achievement ____65____ in our report when the team ended, we all got angry.
But Mr. Taylor ____66____ to make a change. What had happened? “Very simple.” Mr. Taylor said. There had ____67____ been any such animal. All the story was made up by himself. So what we wrote down in our notes was the totally wrong. Did we expect marks for wrong answers? Hearing his ____68____, we realized that he hadn’t given us any useful facts, such as its living habit or body characters.
Mr. Taylor said teachers and textbooks are not always ____69____. In fact. no one is. So we should find out the truth by ourselves instead of accepting what the text or the teacher said _____70_____. He told us not to let our mind go to sleep and to have the courage to stand up for the truth.
After hearing this, my son’s eyes were shining. He said, “Just like what Aristotle said--Plato is dear to me, but dearer still is truth.”

In your dreams, you may clearly see something or hear someone talking. But what about smells? Can you ever remember smells from your dreams?
Researchers have studied different sensory(感官的) experiences in dreams. According to The Independent, a study has found that visual(视觉的) experience mainly controls one’s dreams. ____71____ But why do they differ a lot? Now scientists from the University of Illinois, US, may have the answers.
In our brain, a special part called the cerebral cortex(大脑皮层) is linked to our feelings. Two-thirds of the cerebral cortex works in vision. ____72____ Auditory is closely tied to language, and language is processed completely in the cerebral cortex.
____73____ It connects directly into the memory and emotional systems. That is why a smell can bring back a memory.
____74____ For example, close your eyes and imagine your favorite dish. What do you get? It is easy to think about what it looks like. But it is not easy to imagine its smell.
The vision and auditory senses are part of a complex process inside the brain. But smell is a direct measurement of the chemicals in the air. There is less imagination involved(涉及) in smell. ____75____
It is similar to taste and touch. That is why you don’t often have the experience of taste and touch in your dreams.
A．So vision appears often in dreams.
B．Smell, however, has little to do with the cerebral cortex.
C．It is probably because the experience of smell is much more difficult.
D．Another possibility is that perhaps smell is not easily influenced by our imagination. E．Therefore, smell might be less influenced by the brain activity happening during dreaming. F．It takes up about 85 percent, while auditory(听觉的) experience makes up 69 percent, and smell only 7 percent.

In today’s society, more and more parents both work outside, so most parents would prefer a car to send children between school, football practice and piano lessons. Getting children where they need to go is a huge task, especially in homes where both parents work. Hailing rides (专车服务) like Uber have made life easier for adults, but drivers are not allowed to pick up kids who travel without an adult aside.
Ride-hailing for kids could be a market worth at least $50 billion in America, said Ritu
Narayan, the CEO of Zum. The services are similar to Uber’s, except they allow parents to plan rides for their children ahead. Children are given a code word to make sure they find the right driver, and parents receive warnings about the ride and the car’s speed. These services promise more careful background checks, finger printing and training than other ride- hailing companies.
Annette Yolas, who works at AT&T, says that she spends around $200 a month on Hop Skip Drive, a service that operates(运行) in several markets in California, for her three kids to get to the school bus on time and to football practice. She says it has been a “life-saver” by allowing her to work longer hours.
But ride-hailing companies for kids may face several challenges. One is finding enough drivers. All users need rides during the same set of hours: before and after school, which makes it hard to offer drivers enough work. It can also be challenging to get parents’ support, who have taught children never to get in a stranger’s car.
And while ride-sharing companies can drive adult passengers mad by cancelling or being late, such behavior can be a disaster to children. Huddle, one of the earliest to take part in the competition in the taxis-for-kids business, shut down in 2016. It had only two out of five stars on Yelp (点评网站) for that reason, and lots of negative reviews from parents. It had made money on rides mainly by raising prices even higher.
Huddle’s failure has not discouraged Uber, which is expected soon to set up a program for teenagers under 18. Parents may be happier to use services they are familiar with. But Uber’s entrance will add more competitions of child-ride-hailing businesses as they compete for customers and money.
