She fought for women's rights long before they became a popular issue.Susan was born on February 15, 1820, in Adams, Massachusetts. At that time, women had few rights. They could not own property. Money earned by a married woman belonged to her husband. Major decisions regarding children were made by the fathers. Women could not vote.At the age of 15, Susan became a schoolteacher. She taught for 15 years. Then she began organizing women's groups to promote causes that were important to women. She helped gain better educational rights for women. She helped give married women possession of their earnings.After the Civil War, Susan became very involved in the woman's suffrage movement. After years of lecturing, writing, and appealing by Susan and other women, some parts of the United States changed their laws to give women the right to vote. The first state was Wyoming in 1869. Other areas and states gradually followed Wyoming's decision. It was not until 1920 that the U. S. Constitution was changed to give all women voting rights.Susan Brownwell Anthony died in 1906 at the age of 86. She was elected to the American Hall of Fame for Great Americans in 1950. She was the first American woman to have a likeness (肖像) of her face on a coin. It was the 1979 Susan Brownell Anthony dollar.24. What was the situation of American women like when Susan was born?A. They had a low social status.B. They could vote after getting married.C. They managed money for their husbands.D. They were responsible for decision-making.25. What is the third paragraph mainly about?A. Susan's teaching experiences.B. Susan's educational background.C. Susan's efforts to abolish slavery.D. Susan's fighting for women's causes.26. What does the word "decision" in the fourth paragraph refer to?A. Promoting the social movement.B. Changing the US Constitution.C. Giving women voting rights.D. Uniting other areas and states.27. What may be the best title for the text?A. The first American woman to invent coinsB. The problem of women rights in the USC. The most popular women organizationsD. A pioneer in fighting for women's rightsCCrossing your legs is an extremely common habit; most people don't even notice that they're doing it when they sit down. While you may find it comfortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of.A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure. The reason for this is that the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart and that crossing one leg over the other increases resistance, making it even harder for the blood to circulate. This causes your body to increase your blood pressure to push the blood back to the heart. You won't feel any immediate effects, but repeated, drawn-out increases in blood pressure can cause long-term health issues. So, planning to sit for a long period of time? Don't keep your legs crossed.Crossing your legs at the knee can also cause pressure on the major nerve in your leg that passes just below your knee and along the outside of your leg, explains Richard Graves, a medical expert. This pressure can cause numbness and temporary paralysis (麻痹) of some of the muscles in your foot and leg, preventing you from being able to raise your ankle—what we know as thatrepeatedly crossing your legs until they feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floor. Not only will it help your posture and stability, but it will also save your health in the long run.28. What can we learn about crossing one's legs?A. It is a very bad social habit.B. It is usually practiced deliberately.C. It can do harm to people's health.D. It can make others feel uncomfortable.29. According to the study, sitting with your legs crossed can______.A. affect your blood pressureB. resist gravity effectivelyC. lead to heart attacks easilyD. improve the function of legs30. In the third paragraph "pins and needles" probably means______.A. slight sharp painsB. being a little nervousC. serious muscle injuriesD. being highly flexible31. What is the main purpose of the text?A. To compare common habits.B. To give readers some advice.C. To evaluate effects of an experiment.D. To introduce research methods.DBees play a vital role in the world. Unfortunately, bees are dying by the second.The main purpose of bees is to make honey. Honey, shockingly, does not exist for human consumption, it is essential to the insects. Honeybees store honey in their hives (蜂巢) in order for the bees to have energy for their flight muscles and for heating the hive during the winter period. They collect pollen (花粉) which supplies protein for young bees to grow.According to National Honey Board, the increased production and quality of agricultural crops as a result of honeybee pollination is valued at more than $14. 6 billion per year. These insects are responsible for over 70 of the fruits and vegetables we eat today, including apples, grapes, coffee, beans, and broccoli.So if they are so valuable to agriculture, why do they keep dying off? A key suspect seems to be pesticides (农药). Honeybees who are exposed to pesticides result in the damage to their neurological (神经的) functions, specifically memory or behavior. And that's why the majority ofworker bees disappear and leave behind a queen, plenty of food and a few nurse bees to care for the remaining immature bees and the queen. There are several other causes of the decline of bees, including the destruction of natural habitats, like woodlands, forests, and other habitats for bees. Climate change is also a factor in the decline of the wild bee population.Actually, there are a variety of methods to help the bee population grow. One way is to start your own organic garden by planting bee-friendly plants. Pesticides are used in both industrial practices and even in your home, so it is best to find organic seeds and weed killers.32. Why do honeybees store honey in their hives?A. To provide enough honey for human to consume.B. To draw protein out of honey for young bees.C. To help attract other insects and make hives stronger.D. To strengthen bee muscles and heat hives in winter.33. Apples and beans are mentioned in the third paragraph to show that _____.A. bees supply human beings with basic foodB. bees mainly live on these agricultural cropsC. bees are of great importance to fruits and vegetablesD. bees can bring in more money for famers every year34. What is most likely to cause the worker bees to leave their hives behind?A. The lack of food.B. The abuse of pesticides.C. The fighting among bees.D. The destruction of the habitats.35. What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?A. Another way to save bees.B. Other tips for choosing seeds.C. More methods to plant green organic fruits.D. Causes of the decline in the wild bee population.第二节（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。

AWhat makes a building ugly? Everyone's got their own opinion, so it’s hard to say. Now, let’s take a look at some of the world’s worst buildings.The Torre VelascaThe Tone Velasca in Milan is in the centre of Milan (Italy). The tower, which went up in the 1950s, is about 100 metres tall. Its design is actually a modern representation of a traditional Lombard castle, where the lower parts were narrower (狭窄的）than the upper parts.The Mirador BuildingThe Mirador Building in Madrid (Spain) was created by Dutch studio MVRDV and the Spanish architect Blanca Lleo. The building, which is a block of flats, opened in 2005. There is a large rectangular (矩形的）hole in the upper part of it, which is used by the neighbourhood as a meeting area and playground.The Prague TV TowerThe Prague TV Tower is in Prague (the capital of the Czech Republic). It stands 216 metres high and looks a bit like a tall, thin space ship. Prague is famous for its architectural beauty,so when the tower was put up in 1985 by architect Vaclav Aulicky and engineer Jiri Kozak, many felt it didn’t fit in.The Longaberger Basket CompanyThe Longaberger Basket Company building is in Newark, Ohio (USA). The office block was opened in 1997 and looks like a very large basket. It，s got seven floors and two handles at the top. The handles weigh about 150 tons. It may not be the ugliest building in the world but it’s certainly one of the most unusual.21. According to the text, the Torre Velasca _________ .A. is similar to a Lombard castleB. was created by Blanca LleoC. has a history of over 100 yearsD. is taller than the Prague TV Tower22. Which of the following buildings might be the Mirador Building?A. B.C D23. When the Prague TV tower was put up, many people___ .A.liked it very muchB. thought little of itC. felt that it might fall down easilyD. thought that it was totally uselessBEmma and Ryan, a married couple, were driving to a friend’s house when Emma turned to Ryan and asked, “Would you like to stop for lunch?”Ryan replied. “No,I’m not hungry yet,”and continued driving. Meanwhile, Emma sat quietly fuming (十分恼火)in the passenger seat. Ryan could not understand why Emma was unhappy. He had thought she was asking if he was hungry, but in reality, Emma was telling him that she was hungry and wanted to stop for lunch.Misunderstandings like this often occur between men and women, even among people from the same culture. Deborah Tannen, professor of linguistics at Georgetown University in the United States, has studied conversational rules. In Emma and Ryan’s situation, Emma was making a request in the form of a question. Her style of talking is common for women. She needed Ryan to agree they were both hungry. So, Emma asked Ryan what he wanted. She was really telling Ryan what she wanted; however, Ryan did not understand this. If he had been hungry, he would have said something more direct, such as, “I’m hungry. Let’s have lunch.”Tannen believes that most women grow up in a world where talk is used to express feelings. However, most men are raised differently and they tend to keep their feelings to themselves.Tannen says, for men, talk is often used as a situation used outside the home to gain respect, to entertain and get attention , or to exchange information. This is why men communicate by making each other laugh, or talking about sport and work. These men do not always feel it is necessary to talk to feel close or to express their feelings. Women, on the other hand, are encouraged to speak about their feelings since this is a way to build relationships.24. What can be inferred from Emma and Ryan’s story?A. Emma didn’t like Ryan.B. Ryan didn’t want to talk to Emma.C. Ryan didn’t want to eat with Emma.D. Emma wasn’t pleased with Ryan’s answer.25. According to Deborah Tannen, what causes the misunderstanding?A.Different culturesB. Different characteristicsC. Different ways of communicatingD.Different educational background26. Compared with women, men_______.A. talk less about feelingsB. communicate more with othersC. are more likely to become angryD.are better at building relationships27. What might be the best title for the text?A. Why women like to express feelingsB. How men and women communicateC. Different ways of supporting a childD. Misunderstandings in social communicationCRed meat, usually considered to be beef, pork, mutton and lamb products, have nutritional value, but eating red meat also raises some health concerns.Red meat is an excellent source of protein(蛋白质). It is also a key source of vitamin B12, which is only available in animal products and is key for both red blood cell and nerve health. Red meat is also a rich source of zine, selenium(硒) andiron. Zinc and selenium are good for our immune system (免疫系统). Iron helps transport oxygen in the blood, and low levels of iron can lead to feeling tired. Eating red meat, especially lean cuts(廋肉), with meals and snacks, may help people curb hunger between meals and help people with weight management.Health risks of red meat may include the risk of heart disease and cancer. It is usually best to avoid processed meats. These tend to contain lots of salt andnitrites(亚硝酸盐), which may damage our health. Choosi ng lean cuts and cooking meat correctly may reduce health risks. It is generally advised not to undercook or overcook red meat and to avoid grilling(烧烤).When it comes to red meat and health, another thing is whether the animals are grain or grass-fed. Grass-fed animals frequently have a better quality of life. Grass feeding can be more environmentally friendly as well.Many governments suggest the amount of red meat should be safely included in a healthy diet. The amount varies between nations, but several portions a week are usually acceptable. Those who choose to include eating red meat may wish to choose grass-fed animals and to cut off any fat before eating.28. According to Paragraph 2, red meat _____.A.is quite expensiveB. a major source of various vitaminsC.can provide important nutrition for usD.contains protein that can’t be found in plants29. What does the underlined word “curb”in paragraph2 probably mean?A. experienceB. developC. controlD. realize30. What suggestion does the author give us on eating red meat?A. We should eat it anyway we like.B. We should cut it out from our diet.C. We should cook it as long as possible.D. We should pay attention to its quality and amount.31.What may be the best title for the text?A. Red meat and healthB. Diseases related to red meatC. Unhealthy diet of meat loversD. Methods of cooking red meatDScientists in Argentina have created the world’s first cow with two human genes that will enable it to produce human-like milk.Genetic engineering was used to introduce the "mothers’milk" genes into the animal before birth, according to the National Institute of Agribusiness Technology in Buenos Aires.As an adult, the cloned cow "will produce milk that is similar to that of humans", which will prove "a deve lopment of great importance for the nutrition of infants(婴儿)", said the institute. "The cloned cow, named Rosita ISA, is the first in the world with two human genes that contain the proteins present in human milk," said the statement.In April, scientists in China published details of research showing that they had created dairy cows which produced milk containing proteins found in human breast milk. But the Argentine team said the Chinese only introduced one human gene, while their research involved two, meaning the milk will more closely resemble that of humans.“Our goal was to raise the nutrition value of cows’milk by adding two human genes, which do good to the immune system of infants,” said Adrian Mutto, from the National University of San Martin which worked with the institute.Cristina Kirchner, President of Argentina, said that the scientific institute made all Argentines proud. She also said that she had refused the "honor" of having the cow named after her. "They came to tell me that the name is Cristina, but what woman would like to have a cow named after her? It appeared to me to be more proper to call it Rosita.”32. What is the passage mainly about?A. The importance of genetic engineering.B. Ways to improve mothers’ milk.C. Advanced agricultural technology in Argentina.D. A cloned cow to produce human-like milk.33. Which of the following can best replace “more closely resemble” in Para 4?A. have more varieties thanB. have more nutrition thanC. be more similar toD. be more different from34. What can be inferred from Cristina Kirchner’s statements?A. She was quite satisfied with the research done by the institute.B. She considered it an honor to name the special cow.C. She felt it improper to be named after the cow.D. She refused to give a name to the cow out of self-respect.35. What’s Adrian Mutto’s attitude to the genetic engineering?A.negativeB. supportiveC.indifferentD.mixed第二节（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。

With TV Ears wireless technology, you set your own headset volume, while other TV listeners hear the television at a volume level that's comfortable for them. You can even listen through the headset only and put the TV on mute (静音) if the situation needs a quiet environment —maybe the baby is sleeping. Or perhaps you are the only one who is interested in listening to the ballgame.TV Ears patented (有专利权的) technology includes a revolutionary noise reduction ear tip, not used in any other commercially available headset. This tip reduces outside noise so that television dialogue is clear and understandable. Get the technology that has proven to help the most demanding customers. That's why TV Ears has earned the trust and confidence of audiologists (听觉学家) nationwide as well as world-famous doctors.Doctor Recommended TV Ears!“My wife and I have used TV Ears almost daily for the past two years and find them a great help in our enjoyment of television. As a retired ear doctor, I heartily recommend TV Ears to people with normal hearing as well as those with hearing loss.”— Robert Forbes, M.

This advertisement is made more believable by .A. usingrecommendationsB. offering reasons for this inventionC. providingstatisticsD. showing the results of experimentsCIn 1971, UN scholar Paolo Lugari started an eco-social experiment in Gaviotas, Colombia. Located in one of the most extreme climates, Gaviotas was described as a sustainable(可持续的), self-sufficient village in an area that Lugari called 'just a big, wet desert'.'They always put social experiments in the easiest places,' Lugari said.'We wanted the hardest place. We figured if we could do it here, we could do it anywhere.''Lugari just thought that someday the world would become so crowded thathumans would have to learn to live in the planet's least desirable areas,' wrote Alan Weisman, author of Gaviotas: A Village to Reinvent the World.Today, Gaviotas is an eco-village with about 200 people. They farm organically. They use wind and solar power. Since 2004, Gaviotas has been 100% fossil fuel independent. The residents also enjoy free housing, schooling, and community meals. Shockingly, there are no weapons, no police, no jail and no mayor. But though these elements would make any social experiment a success, perhaps the most remarkable accomplishment is the planting of 1.5 million pine trees and palm trees. The various results of this new tree growth have been incredible. The shade of the trees has inspired the return of many rainforest species that were once native to the region. Additionally, the residents of Gaviotas enjoy a sustainable source of income from the resin(松香) harvested from the trees.The United Nations named Gaviotas a model of sustainable development. The Colombia novelist and Noble Prize winner Grabriel Marquez called Lugari the 'inventor of the world'.A new study by a team of researchers has found that 'nature's capacity to store carbon is steadily falling as the world's farmers expand croplands at the cost of the native ecosystem such as forests'.Considering this disturbing fact—and as the world population increases towards an estimated 9 billion by the year 2050 and global warming continues to increase the planet's surface temperature—Gaviotas stands as one shining example of how things could be different.28.Before the year 1971,________.A.there was never any rain in GaviotasB.Gaviotas was one of the hardest places to live on the planetC. scientists did many social experiments in GaviotasD. Lugari often visited Gaviotas29. Gaviotas has developed into a sustainable, self-sufficient village thanks to________.A. the government's greatsupport B. people's organic farmingC. Lugari's greatcontribution D.the United Nations' research30. The fourth paragraph is intended to tell us ________.A. the income of people inGaviotas B. the public security situation of GaviotasC. the rainforest species inGaviotas D. the living conditions of people in Gaviotas31. What is the passage mainly about?A. A village that reinvented the world.B. A person who planted many trees.C. How a small village turned into a businesscenter. D. The importance of protecting the environment.DThe extraordinary Eastgate Building in Harare, Zimbabwe's capital city, is said to be the only one in the world to use the same cooling and heating methods as the termite mound (白蚁堆).Architect Mick Pearce used precisely the same strategy when designing the Eastgate Building, which has no air conditioning and almost no heating. The building is the country's largest commercial and shopping complex（综合楼）but uses less than 10% of the energy of a conventional building of its size. The Eastgate's owners saved 3.5 million on a 36 million building because air conditioning didn't have to be equipped.The complex is actually two buildings linked by bridges across a shady, glassroofed atrium (天井) open to the air. Fans take fresh air in from the atrium, blow it upstairs through hollow spaces under the floors and from there into each office through vents (通风口). As it rises and warms, it is drawn out via ceiling vents and finally exists through fortyeight brick chimneys.During summer's cool nights, big fans blow air through the building seven times an hour to cool the empty floors. By day, smaller fans blow two changes ofair an hour through the building to circulate the air which has been in contactwith the cool floors. For winter days, there are small heaters in the vents.This is all possible only because Harare is 1,600 feet above sea level,and has cloudless skies, little dampness and rapid temperature swings---days aswarm as 31 °C commonly drop to 14°C at night.“You couldn't do this in New York,with its fantastically hot summers and fantastically cold winters,”Pearce said.The engineering firm of Ove Arup & Partners monitors daily temperatures.It is found that the temperature of the building has generally stayed between 23 °Cand 25 °C, with the exception of the annual hot period just before the summerrains in October and three days in November, when a doorkeeper accidentallyswitched off the fans at night. And the air is far fresher than in airconditioned buildings, where up to 30% of the air is recycled.32.Why was Eastgate cheaper to be built than a conventional building?A. It was designed in a smallersize. B. No air conditioners werefixed in.C. Its heating system was less advanced.D. It usedrather different building materials.33. What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 3?A. Fresh air fromoutside.B. Heat in the building.C. A hollowspace.D. A baseboard vent.34. Why would a building like Eastgate not work efficiently in New York?A. New York has less clear skies as Harare.B. Its dampness affects the circulation of air.C. New York covers a larger area than Harare.D. Its temperature changes seasonally rather than daily.35. The data in the last paragraph suggests Eastgate's temperature controlsystem .A. allows a wide range of temperaturesB. functions well for most of the yearC. can recycle up to 30% of theair D. works better in hot seasons第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Tips for protecting your eyes during the winterWe usually worry about staying warm during the winter months, and think less about protecting our eyes.____36____.

A“ I Went Skydiving at 84!”As a young girl growing up in the 1930s, I always wanted to fly a plane, but back then it was almost unheard of a woman to do that. I got a taste of that dream in 2011,when my husband arranged for me me ride in a hot air balloon for my birthday. But the experience turned out to be very dull. Around that time ,I told my husband that I wanted to skydive. So when our retirement community（社区）announced that they were having an essay competition and the topic was an experience of a lifetime that you wanted to have, I decided to write about my dream.In the essay, I wrote about my desire to skydive, stating George Brush Sr. did it at age 80. Why not me? I was just 84 and in pretty good health. A year went by and I heard nothing. But then at a community party in late April 2009, they announced that I was one of the winners. I just couldn’ t believe it. Inspired by this, I decided to realize my dream, even though some of my family members and my doctor were against it.One June 11, 2009, nearly 40 of my family and friends gathered in the area close to whereI would land while I headed up in the airplane. My instructor, Jay, guided me through the experience. The plane was the noisiest one I had ever been in, but I wasn’t frightened—I was really just looking forward to the experience. When we reached 13,000 feet, Jay instructed me to throw myself out of the plane. When we first hit the air, the wind was so strong that I could hardly breathe. For a second I thought, “What have I gotten myself into?” But then everything got calmer. We were in a free fall for about a minute before Jay opened the parachute（降落伞）, then we just floated downward for about five minutes. Being up in the clouds and looking at the view below was unlike anything I have ever felt—much better than the hot air balloon. I was just enjoying it.Skydiving was really one of the greatest experiences of my life. I hope other people will look at me and realize that you don’ t stop living just because you are 84 years old. If there’ ssomething you want to experience, look into it. If it’ s something that is possible, make it happen.1.What happened to the author in 2011?A. She flew an airplane.B. She entered a competition.C. She went on a hot air balloon ride .D. She moved into a retirement community.2. The author mentioned George Bush Sr. in her essay to ___________.A. build up her own reputationB. show her admiration for himC. compare their health conditionD. make her argument persuasive3. How did the author feel immediately after she jumped out of the plane?A. ExcitedB. ScaredC. NervousD. Regretful4. What did the author enjoy most when she was skydiving?A. The beautiful cloudsB. The wonderful viewC. The company of JayD. The one-minute free fallBBrave Frenchman Found Half-way Around the World(NEW YORK) A French tourist highly praised for rescuing a two-year-old girl in Manhattan said he didn't think twice before diving into the freezing East River.Tuesday's Daily News said 29-year Julien Duret from France is the man who left the spot quickly after the rescue last Saturday.He lifted the little girl out of the water after she fell off the bank at the South Street Seaport museum. He handed the girl to her father, David Anderson, who had dived in after him.“ I didn't think at all,” Duret told the Daily News. “ It happened very fast. I reacted very fast.”Duret, an engineer on vacation,was walking with his girlfriend along the pier (码头) when he saw something falling into the water. He thought it was a doll, but realized it was a child when he approached the river. In an instant, he took off his coat and jumped into the water.When he reached the girl, she appeared lifeless, he said. Fortunately, when she was out of the water, she opened her eyes.Anderson said his daughter slipped off the bank when he was adjusting his camera. An ambulance came later for her, said Duret, who was handed dry clothes from onlookers. Duret caught a train with his girlfriend shortly after.The rescue happened on the day before he left for France. Duret said he didn't realize his tale ofheroism had greatly moved New York until he was leaving the city the next morning. "I don't really think I'm a hero," said Duret. "Anyone would do the same ting."5. Why was Duret in New York?A. To meet his girlfriend.B. To work as an engineer.C. To spend his holiday.D. To visit the Andersons.6. What did Duret do shortly after the ambulance came?A. He was interviewed by a newspaperB. He asked his girlfriend for his dry clothesC. He went to the hospital in the ambulanceD. He disappeared from the spot quickly7. Who dived after Duret into the river to save the little girl?A. David AndersonB. A passer-byC. His girlfriendD. A taxi driver.8. When was Duret most probably found to be the very hero?A. The day when he was leaving for home.B. A couple of days after the girl was rescued.C. The first day when he was in New York.D. The same day when he was interviewed.CFor many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents' point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents' complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.In this article, I'll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen's hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child's failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn't matter what the topic is—politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg—the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, forboth wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something—and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they'll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.9. Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict?A. Both can continue for generations.B. Both are about where to draw the line.C. Neither has any clear winner.D. Neither can be put to an end.10. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?A. The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.B. The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict.C. The teens accuse their parents of misleading them.D. The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents.11. Parents and teens want to be right because they want to _____.A. give orders to the otherB. know more than the otherC. gain respect from the otherD. get the other to behave properly12. What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?A. Causes for the parent-teen conflicts.B. Examples of the parent-teen war.C. Solutions for the parent-teen problems.D. Future of the parent-teen relationship.DModern inventions have speeded up people's lives amazingly. Motor-cars cover a hundred miles in little more than an hour, aircraft cross the world inside a day, while computers operate at lightning speed. Indeed, this love of speed seems never-ending. Every year motor-cars are produced which go even faster and each new computer boasts (吹嘘) of saving precious seconds in handling tasks. All this saves time, but at a price. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so. We get the uncomfortable feeling known as jet-lag; our bodies feel that they have been left behind in another time zone. Again, spending too long at computerresults in painful wrists and fingers. Mobile phones also have their dangers, according to some scientists; too much use may transmit harmful radiation into our brains, a consequence we do not like to think about.However, what do we do with the time we have saved? Certainly not relax, or so it seems. We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing, or even just one thing at a time. Perhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imagination take us into another world.There was a time when some people's lives were devoted simply to the cultivation of the land or the care of cattle. No multi-tasking there; their lives went on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pattern. There is much that we might envy about a way of life like this. Yet before we do so, we must think of the hard tasks our ancestors faced: they farmed with bare hands, often lived close to hunger, and had to fashion tools from wood and stone. Modern machinery has freed people from that primitive existence.13. The new products become more and more time-saving because _____.A. our love of speed seems never-endingB. time is limitedC. the prices are increasingly highD. the manufacturers boast a lot14. What is the author's attitude towards the modern technology?A. Critical.B. Objective.C. Optimistic.D. Negative.15. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. The present and past times.B. Machinery and human beings.C. Imaginations and inventions.D. Modern technology and its influence. .第二节（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。
