Peter waved goodbye and closed the door slowly as Jane left home to visit her grandmother. Expecting a whole day to relax, he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favorite TV talk show on his first day off in months. “This will be like a walk in the park,” he’d told his wife, “I’ll look after the kids, and you can go to visit your grandma.”
Things started well, but just after eight o’clock, his three little “good kids”—Adam, Bob, and
Christopher—came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted “breakfast, daddy.” When food had not appeared within thirty seconds, Adam began using his spoon on Christopher’s head as if it were a drum. Christopher started to shout loudly in time to the beat (节拍). Bob chanted “Where’s my toast, where’s my toast” in the background. Peter realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.
Life became worse after breakfast. Adam wore Bob’s underwea r on his head. Bob locked himself in the bathroom, while Christopher shouted again because he was going to wet his pants. Nobody could find clean socks, although they were before their very eyes. Someone named “Not Me” had spilled a whole glass of orange j uice into the basket of clean clothes. Peter knew the talk show had already started.
By ten o’clock, things were out of control. Christopher was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter. Adam was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his color pencils. Bob, thankfully, appeared to be reading quietly in the family room, but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands. Peter realized that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible.
At exactly 11:17, Peter called the daycare centre (日托所).“I suddenly have to go into work and my wife’s away. Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes?” The answer was obviously “yes” because Peter was smiling.
4. When his wife left home, Peter expected to .
A. have a relaxing day without pressure
B. enjoy his first day off work in weeks
C. watch TV talk show with his children
D. go out for a walk in the nearby park
5. Which of the following did Bob do?
A. Using his spoon on Christopher’s head.
B. Wearing his underwear on his head
C. Reading quietly in the family room.
D. Eating apple jam from the bottle.
6. Why did Peter ask the daycare centre for help?
A. Because he had to pick up his wife back home.
B. Because he found it hard to kill the time home.
C. Because he wanted to go to his office to work.
D. Because he found it hard to look after his boys.
7. This text is developed .
A. by time
B. by giving examples
C. by comparison
D. by space
C
Facebook is the world’s biggest social networking site. People are being tricked into Facebook with the promise of a fun, free service without realizing they’re paying for it by giving up loads of personal information.
Most Facebook users don’t realize this is happening. Even if they know what the company is up to, they still have no idea what they’re paying for Facebook because people don’t really know what their personal data is worth.
The biggest problem, however, is that the company keeps changing the rules. Early you could keep everything private. That was the great thing about Facebook— You could create your own little private network. Last year, the company changed its privacy rules so that many things— your city, your photo, your friends’ names— were set, by default (默认),to be shared with everyone on the Internet.
According to Facebook’s vice-president Elliot Schrage, the company is simply making changes to improve its service, and if people don’t share information, they have a “less satisfying experience”.
Some critics(批评家) think this is more about Facebook looking to make more money. In original business model, which involved selling ads and putting them in the side of the pages totally, who wants to look at ads when they’re online connecting with their friends?
The privacy issue has already landed Facebook in hot water in Washington. In April，Senator Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy. He also urged(催促) the Federal Trade Commission to set guidelines for social networking sites. “I think the senator rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how people could choose to use them or not to use them,” Schrage admits.
I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade our privacy, it’s only the
beginning，which is why I’m considering cancelling（取消）my account. Facebook is a handy site, but I’m upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I don’t know. That’s too high a price to pay.
8. What do we learn about Facebook from the first paragraph?
A. It is a website that sends messages to users who want to get married.
B. It earns money by putting on advertisements.
C. It provides loads of personal information to its users.
D. It makes money by selling its users’ personal data.
9. What does the author say about most Facebook users?
A. They are unwilling to give up their personal information.
B. They care very little about their personal information.
C. They don’t identify themselves when using the website.
D. They don’t know their personal data enriches Facebook.
10. Why does Facebook make changes to its rules according to Elliot Schrage?
A. To obey the Federal guidelines.
B. To provide better service to its users.
C. To improve its users’ connection
D. To expand its business.
11. Why does the author plan to cancel his Facebook account?
A. He doesn’t want his personal data badly used.
B. He finds many of its users untrustworthy.
C. He is dissatisfied with its present service.
D. He is upset by its frequent rule changes.
D
Electric cars are dirty. In fact, not only are they dirty, but they might even be more dirty than their gasoline-powered cousins.
People in California love to talk about “zero-emissions (排放) vehicles”, but people in California seem to be clueless about where electricity comes from. Power plants(工厂) mostly use fire to make it. Apart from the few people who have their roofs covered with solar cells, we get our electricity from generators (发电机). Generators are fueled by something—usually coal, oil,
but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants. There are a few wind farms and geothermal (地热) plants as well, but by far we get electricity mainly by burning something.
In other words, those “zero-emissions” cars are likely coal-burning cars. Because the coal is burned somewhere else, it looks clean. It is not true. It's as if the California Greens are covering their eyes—“If I can't see it, it's not happening.” Gasoline is an incredibly (极其) efficient way to power a vehicle; a gallon of gas has a lot of energy in it. But when you take that gas (or another fuel) and first use it to make electricity, you waste a nice part of that energy, mostly in the form of wasted heat--at the generator, through the transmission lines, etc.
A gallon of gas may drive your car 25 miles. But the electricity you get from that gallon of gas won't get you nearly as far—so electric cars burn more fuel than gasoline-powered ones. If our electricity came mostly from wind or geothermal, or solar, then an electric car truly would be clean. But for political, technical, and economic reasons, we don't use much of those energy sources.
In addition, electric cars' batteries which are poisonous for a long time will eventually end up in a landfill (垃圾填埋场). And finally, when cars are the polluters, the pollution is spread across all the roads. When it's a power plant, though, all the junk is in one place. Nature is very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentrated, but it takes a lot longer when all the garbage is in one spot.
12. Which of the following words can replace “be clueless about” in Paragraph 2?
A. be familiar with.
B. be curious about.
C. fail to understand.
D. show their interest in.
13. The electricity we get from a gallon of gas may make our car run _________.
A. at least 25 miles
B. more than 25 miles
C. less than 25 miles
D. as far as 25 miles
14. In the author’s opinion, compared with cars using gas, electric cars are more __________.
A expensive. B. harmful
C. efficient
D. environmentally-friendly
15. It can be inferred from the passage that __________.
A. electric cars’ batteries are no longer poisonous in the landfill
B. now electric cars are used more than their gasoline-powered cousins
C. zero-emissions vehicles should be chosen to protect our environment
D. electric cars are not clean since we get electricity mainly by burning something
第二节：阅读填句（共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10分）
根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

Homework is a major part of going to school: It’s your teachers’ way of evaluating how much you understand what's going on in class. 16 Luckily, you can do a few things to make homework less burden.
Be sure you understand the homework.
Write your homework down in your notebook or day planner if you need to. 17 It’s much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night!
Use any extra time in school.
Many schools have study halls that are specifically designed to allow students to study. It’s tempting(诱惑人的) to hang out with friends during study periods or unstructured (松散的) time.
18
Take a break.
19 So take some breaks while doing your homework. Sitting for too long without stretching or relaxing will make you less productive than if you stop every so often. Taking a 15-minute break every hour is a good idea for most people.
20
If you don't finish your homework during school, think about how m uch you have left and what else is going on that day, and then budget your time. Most high-school students have between 1 and 3 hours of homework a night. If it’s a heavy homework day and it seems like you’ve got an assignment in every subject but gym and lunch, you’ll need to devote more time to homework. It’s a good idea to come up with some kind of homework schedule, especially if you are involved in sports or activities or have an after-school job.
A. Once your homework is done, you can check over it if you have extra time.
B. And it helps digest important concepts.
C. Plan yourself.
D. Settle down to homework.
E. Don't be afraid to ask questions about what's expected in your homework.
F. But the more work you can get done in school, the less you'll have to do that night.
G. Most people's attention spans (跨度) aren't very long.

Dear John,
I’m so pleased to receive your last letter. You are welcome to come to my hometown and visit Shanghai Disneyland when it is first open to the public. I suppose that the Disneyland in Shanghai will attract thousands of visitors from home and abroad on its first opening day. So before your leaving for Shanghai, remember to tell me your flight number and the date, and I will go to the airport to meet you personally. I will put you up in my family, for both my parents want to chat with you. After arriving, you can have a good rest at my home. Then I will show you around some places of interest in Shanghai. I have booked the tickets online in advance, so there is no hurry.
I’m looking forward to seeing you as soon as possible.
Yours,
Li Hua。
