A
With its private hidden coves(小海湾)and pink beaches．Bermuda is a perfect place for relaxation and romance．Though this tiny string of Atlantic islands covers only 21 square m iles ．there ’ s much to see and do ． Spend tile days boating，golfing，shopping or swimming with dolphins．Explore secret caves，visit historical museums and churches ． Bermuda's nightlife offers everything from fine dining to fast food，jazz clubs to Irish pubs．
Even though a large number of people live 011 this small island,you should
never feel crowded．There are no ad boards or signs，and relatively few cars to
spoil the beauty of the countryside．Most houses seem to fit quite naturally
into the scenery．
Bermuda consists of nine parishes(教区)．Pembroke，which surrounds the capital city of Hamilton．is the largest parish in population；St．George has the largest land area。

Because of its small size．it's easy to get to know tile island．There's much to see ． Whether you travel by bike. ferry ， bus ， or taxi ． You'll need plenty of
time ． though ， because the pace is slow ． Cars and other motorized
vehicles must observe tile top speed of 15 mph in Hamilton and St．George,20 mph in the countryside．The speed limits are strictly enforced．and there are severe punishments for breaking the rules．
Once you’ ve done all the must-sees,you'll want to walk around and make discoveries on your own . The best parishes for walking are Somerset ,St. George , and Hamilton.
But don’ t fill your days with too much structured sightseeing .You’ ll want time to lie on the beach and play in the water ,and to enjoy moments like
sitting by the harbor in the late afternoon, enjoying the views as the sailing
boats pass by . Absorbing Bermuda’ s beauty at your own pace, and stopping to
chat with the occasional islander , is really the point.
56.According to the text , which of the following is not true of St. George?
A. It has the largest population.
B. It has the largest land area.
C. It is suitable to be toured on foot.
D. Its cars travel in a very low speed.

B. its colorful nightlife
C. visiting some churches
D. fast racing cars
58.You will need plenty of time to sightsee Bermuda because.

you have to walk around only
59. In the writer’ s opinion, .
A. Bermuda is a relaxing and natural place

C. it’ s difficult to chat with local islanders in Bermda
D. not everyone is allowed to lie on the beach
B
Although new laws have been passed in
some American states to cut down on
distracted(分心的)driving,many accidents
and deaths were still related with it,
especially using cell phones while driving .
Recently the Obama administration is
considering disabling cell phones in cars .
aiming to cut down cell-phone-related road
deaths.
Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, the nation’s anti-distracted-driving supporter,said in an interview on November18that federal officials are looking at technology to disable cell phones inside cars.
“ I think it will be done，” LaHood said 。

“ I think the technology is there
and I think you’ re going to see the technology become adaptable in automobiles
to disable these cell phones． We need to do a lot more if we were going to save
lives．”
Also on Thursday,the transportation government started a new“Faces of Distracted Driving”video campaign that features people who have been killed or
lost their loved ones because of inattentive drivers． The video features heartbreaking stories of children killed in crashes because of phoning or text
messaging ， and new videos are expected to be added every few weeks．
A driver is four times more likely to crash while using a mobile phone． More than 5 ， 500 people were killed last year by distracted drivers， and another 500， 000 were injured． LaHood has said it is never safe to talk on a
cell phone while driving,hands-free or not． because it can really cause distraction．
Incidentally． a1ot of people seem to agree with this viewpoint— a new research shows nearly two-thirds of Americans support a national ban on the use
of cell phones while driving， even if the driver is using a hands-free device(装置 ) ． But the research didn’ t ask how people feel about government-
issued mobile phone scramblers or other disabling devices。

because ．
A． there is no national laws to prevent the use of cell phones in cars

62． We can learn from the text that Ray LaHood．
A． is in charge of the invention of the technology
B． thinks it’s easy and practical to invent the technology
C． thinks it’s unnecessary to use cell phone while driving
D． is strongly for the use of the technology in cars
63． The“ Faces of Distracted Driving”video campaign aims to．
A． find out the real drivers who caused the accidents
B． make the public aware of the terrible results of distracted driving
C． call on drivers to buy the new device which disables cell phones in cars

64． In the last paragraph， the “ mobile phone scramblers” are probably．
A． a kind of disabling devices

D． new devices to help text messaging
65． We can itfer from the text that．
A． most people realize the harmfulness of distracted driving

C． the disabling devices in cars will be widely used if it is free
D． the writer is not sure whether disabling devices will be accepted by the

lot we can do to preserve our eyesight．

will result in brown spots ill the eyes or some eye diseases． In order to prevent harmful UV rays， if you plan to be in the sun for extended periods of
time ， you need to wear protective eye wear．
Practice disease prevention． Diabetes(糖尿病 )is among tile few diseases that call cause blindness if left untreated， mistreated or undiagnosed． One of the best ways to prevent disease related blindness is to prevent or control your disease. For example． if you have diabetes it is highly recommended that
you eat a healthy diet， check your blood sugar often and take medicine if your
blood sugar is above 150．
Add vitamin A to your diet． This concept is usually taught during your younger years ． Vitamin A is required for the production of rhodopsin which is
an eye pigment(色索 )highly sensitive to light that is used to see ill pool-lighting conditions． To get your healthy portion of vitamin A， you can go to your local grocery store and pick up carrots，broccoli and other cruciferous(十字花科 )vegetables．
Visit your eye doctor routinely． Visiting your eye doctor can keep， you up to date on your eye health． You should visit your eye doctor for an eye exam
once every one to two years (more often if you wear glasses)to help you keep
good eyesight． You are advised to see your eye doctor immediately if you

About five years ago , an American
electrical engineer named Scott Brusaw and
his wife Julie came up with the idea of
putting solar panels(控制板)on the ground
rather than the roof .Then they began to
develop the Solar Roadway .The Solar
Roadway is an intelligent road that provides
clean renewable energy using power from the sun . while providing safer driving
conditions , along with power and data delivery . They predict that the Solar
Roadway will pay for itself through the generation of electricity along with other forms of income and that the same money that is being used to build and
resurface current roads can be used to build the Solar Roadways.
Each Solar Road Panel measures roughly 4 meters by 4 meters and contains a microprocessor(微处理器 )that monitors and controls the panel ,while communicating with neighboring panels and the vehicles travelling overhead . The inventors suggest that this provides a communications device every 4 meters
on every road which could be used for example to warn drivers of cars which are
moving across a centre line and various other speed control problems. The top
of the Solar Road panels is made of super-strong glass that would offer vehicles the tractions(抓地力 ) they need.
According to the inventors,the Solar Roadway creates and carries clean renewable electricity and therefore electric vehicles can be recharged at any
conveniently located rest stop , or at any business that has paved Solar Road
Panels in their parking lots.
The inventors say their Solar Roadway has many functions and advantages from main roads to driveways, parking lots , bike paths , sidewalks and runways.
The Federal Highway Administration has given Brusaw＄ 100,000to develop the invention and Brusaw hopes to build a smart-road parking lot in the coming spring .
71.In the inventors ’ opinion, the Solar Roadway. A. is
too expensive to build at present
B. costs no more money than current roads
C. can provide as many data as present
computers D. will bring them a large sum of money
72.The underlined word“ they” in Paragraph 2 refers to .
A. the panels
B. the inventors
C. the researchers
D. the vehicles
73.The Solar Roadway includes all the following advantages except.
A. providing safer driving conditions
B. helping drivers communicate with each other while driving
C. creating and carrying clean renewable electricity
D. warning drivers of various speed control problems
74. It can be inferred from the text that.
A. the Solar Roadway has already been put into use
B.＄ 100,000 is only enough to build a smart-road parking lot
C.the Solar Roadway is not available for gas-powered cars
D.future electric vehicles can be charged anytime and anywhere
75.What can be the best title for the text?
A.Solar-powered smart road of the future
B.The great changes on the roadway
C.The influence the Solar Roadway has on people
D.The Solar Road — a much faster road

Five years ago this month I founded Parenting Pathways． In celebration of
my 5-year-old child． I offer My Top5Pieces of Parenting Advice(in no particular order.)
1． There is no such thing as perfect． Struggling for perfection is a road
to nowhere. Stop! Expecting perfection from your child is a mistake． Perfection
is relative， and it doesn’ t really exist.Children need to be taught to struggle for satisfaction．
2.Prepare the child for the path and not the path for the child． You don’ t get to create a world that works for your child； you need to prepare your child for the world． Removing the stones from her way won’ t enable your child to walk life’s path. It is by allowing your child to deal with obstacles
in her way that you prepare her for life．And experience is her best teacher.
3.a child who has not been bandaged has not been well parented． Children need to struggle。

sometimes fall down． They need to get hurt， and they need to learn to pick themselves up with the support of a loving parent．It is through such struggle thin children learn they can survive the bruises（伤痕 ) —and how to do it differently or better next time.
4 .One careless Yes fuels a child through a thousand no’ s． Especially with young children who have elephant-1ike memories， stick to your principles． If one Thursday , six months ago， you gave in to your child’ s begging andright before dinner ． He will remember it and keep asking you for a cookie every day
before dinner! Don’ t compromise．No means no !
5． Be the person you want your child to be． Even though you don’ t believe it now， the apple really doesn’ t fall too far from the tree． Your child is watching you all the time ； he is absorbing what you say and what you don’ t say ， how you react， how you treat people,how you behave.Modeling is a powerful teacher．
76.Why does the author think it necessaryfor a child to suffer some kind of
struggles?(no more than 15 words.)
77.Fill in the blank with proper words .(no more than 5 words.)
78.What ’ s the probable meaning of the underlined word “ compromise ”?(no more than 3 words.)
79.In the sentence “ the apple really doesn’ t fall too far from the tree . ” what or who do “the apple ” and “ the tree ” refer to?
“ The apple ” refers to。

“ The tree ” refers to .
80.Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.

Dear Brooke ，
I am writing to tell you that I took the English Speech Contest held in my
school yesterday ． As the only one from my class． I had to challenge the other
l5 excellent participants selected from the whole school． When it came to me to present ， I got a little bit nervous at first， but soon I calmed down at the thought of your words and suggestions． As you predicted， everything went smoothly and I performed perfectly． Although the question-and-answer section was the most challenging， I managed to get through it properly with the techniques you taught me． When the judge announced the result, I wasn’t at all surprised but quite excited!I got the first prize in the contest， which I couldn ’ t imagine months ago． Thank you very much Brooke， for your unselfish
