morning.C.Wear warm clothes.D.Make reservations in advance.BMinutes after the last movie ended yesterday at the Plaza Theater,employees were busy sweeping up popcorns and gathering coke cups.It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s75-year history.This time, however,the cleanup was a little different.As one group of workers carried out the rubbish,another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater.Though the movie is30years old,most of the250seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-be to the old building.Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate.The movie徐老师is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete.He added that the theater’s location(位置)was also a reason.“This used to be the center of town,”he said.“Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place.However,these plans were abandoned because of financial problems.Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm,which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.The theater audience said good-by as Bradford locked the doors for the last time.After75years the Plaza Theater has shown its last movie.The theater will be missed.4.In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?A.It made room for new equipment.B.It signaled the closedown of the theater.C.It was done with the help

it.D.The theater owner found it suitable.6.What will probably happen to the building?A.It will be repaired.B.It will be turned into a museum.C.It will be knocked down.D.It will be sold to the city government.7.What can we infer about the audience?A.They are disappointed with Bradford.B.They are sad to part with the old theater.C.They are supportive of the city officials.D.They are eager to have a shopping center.CAfter years of heated debate,gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park.Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park.By last year,the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than170 wolves.Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States,but they were gradually displaced by human development.By the1920s,wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area.They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada,where there were fewer humans around.The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results.Deer and elk populations—major food sources(来源)for the wolf–grew rapidly.These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation(植被),which reduced plant diversity in the park.In the absence of wolves,coyote populations also grew quickly.The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park’s red foxes,and completely drove away the park’s beavers.As early as1966,biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park.They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems.Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.The government spent nearly30years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolvers.The U.S.Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone.Today,the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone.Elk,deer,and coyote populations are down,while beavers and red fores have made a comeback.The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.8.What is the text mainly about?A.Wildlife research in the United States.B.Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.C.The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.D.The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.9.What does the underlined word“displaced”in paragraph2mean?A.Tested.徐老师B.Separated.C.Forced out.D.Tracked down.10.What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about?A.Damage to local ecology.B.A decline in the park’s income.C.Preservation of vegetation.D.An increase in the variety of animals.11.What is the author’s attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project?A.Doubtful.B.Positive.C.Disapproving.D.Uncaring.DThe Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named“DriveLAB”in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are.Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and well-being among older people,leading to them becoming more isolated(隔绝)and inactive.Led by Professor Phil Blythe,the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life.These include custom-made navigation(导航)tools,night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations.Phil Blythe explains:“For many older people, particularly those living alone or in the country,driving is important for preserving their independence,giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others.”“But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills.The result is that people stop driving before they really need to.”Dr Amy Guo,the leading researcher on the older driver study,explains,“The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.“For example,most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly,we found that in30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined.We’re looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that.“We hope that our work will help with technological solutions(解决方案)to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.”12.What is the purpose of the Drivel AB?A.To explore newmeans of transport.B.To design new types of cars.C.To find out older driver`s problems.D.To teach people traffic rules.13.Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe?A.It keeps them independent.B.It helps them save time.C.It builds up their strength.D.It cures their mental illnesses.14.What do researchers hope to do for older drivers?A.Improve their driving skills.B.Develop driver-assist technologles.C.Provide tips on repairing their cars.anize regular physical checkups.15.What is the best title for the text?A.A new Model Electric CarB.A Solution to Traffic ProblemC.Driving Service for eldersD.Keeping Older Drivers on the Road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。

The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete.Headded that the theater’s location(位置)was also a reason.“This used to be the center of town,”he said.“Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place.However,these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm,which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time.After75years the Plaza Theater has shown its last movie.The theater will be missed.24.In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?A.It made room for new equipment.B.It signaled the closedown of the theater.C.It was done with the help of the audience.D.It marked the75th anniversary of the theater.25.Why was The Last Picture Show put on?A.It was an all-time classic.B.It was about the history of the town.C.The audience requested it.D.The theater owner found it suitable.26.What will probably happen to the building?A.It will be repaired.B.It will be turned into a museum.C.It will be knocked down.D.It will be sold to the city government.27.What can we infer about the audience?A.They are disappointed with Bradford.B.They are sad to part with the old theater.C.They are supportive of the city officials.D.They are eager to have a shopping center.CAfter years of heated debate,gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park.Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park.By last year,the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than170wolves.Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States,but they were gradually displaced by human development.By the1920s,wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area.They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada,where there were fewer humans around.The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results.Deer and elk populations—major food sources(来源)for the wolf—grew rapidly.These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation (植被),which reduced plant diversity in the park.In the absence of wolves,coyote populations also grew quickly.The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park’s red foxes,and completely drove away the park’s beavers.As early as1966,biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park.They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems.Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.The government spent nearly30years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolvers.The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone.Today,the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone.Elk,deer,and coyote populations are down,while beavers and red fores have made a comeback.The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.28.What is the text mainly about?A.Wildlife research in the United States.B.Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.C.The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.D.The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.29.What does the underlined word“displaced”in paragraph2mean?A.Tested.B.Separated.C.Forced out.D.Tracked down.30.What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about?A.Damage to local ecology.B.A decline in the park’s income.C.Preservation of vegetation.D.An increase in the variety of animals.31.What is the author’s attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project?A.Doubtful.B.Positive.C.Disapproving.D.Uncaring.DThe Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named“Drive LAB”in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are.Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and well-being among older people,leading to them becoming more isolated(隔绝)and inactive.Led by Professor Phil Blythe,the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life.These include custom-made navigation(导航)tools,night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations.Phil Blythe explains:“For many older people,particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is important for preserving their independence,giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others.”“But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills.The result is that people stop driving before they really need to.”Dr Amy Guo,the leading researcher on the older driver study,explains,“The Drive LAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.“For example,most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly,we found that in30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined.We’re looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that.“We hope that our work will help with technological solutions(解决方案)to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.”32.What is the purpose of the Drive LAB?A.To explore newmeans of transport.B.To design new types of cars.C.To find out older driver’s problems.D.To teach people traffic rules.33.Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe?A.It keeps them independent.B.It helps them save time.C.It builds up their strength.D.It cures their mental illnesses.34.What do researchers hope to do for older drivers?A.Improve their driving skills.B.Develop driver-assist technologles.C.Provide tips on repairing their cars.anize regular physical checkups.35.What is the best title for the text?A.A new Model Electric CarB.A Solution to Traffic ProblemC.Driving Service for eldersD.Keeping Older Drivers on the Road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。

Chile. A good week may see her cut 1, 100 pounds of seaweed from the rocks where it grows.Muftoz is one of the 30^000 people for whom Chile's seaweed industry provides a livelihood. Throughout Latin America, the cultivation(种植) and collection of seaweed art1gaining a support both as a source of food and as in means of ensuring food security in a region where 34million people are food insecure and poverty affects 47percent of the rural population. Countries such as Argentina, Brazil, Colombia. Cuba, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, and Veoczuela have all explored seaweed production for food. Yet as demand outpaces production and wild stocks have declined, more arrendon is being paid to sustainable cultivation and harvesting methods that can keep I he industry surviving.Seaweed has n long history in South American style of cooking. The native cooking of Chile made frequent use of cochayuyo, the most abundant of the country^ 750 types of seaweed. . Today, cochayuyo is commonly found in place of meat incharquican, a traditional dish cooked slowly in a closed pan.Kelp, a type of large brown seaweed, as the new vegetable h a global trend too, and for good reason, Nutritiomdly, seaweed is packed with iodine and other nutrients, and appears on trend-making menus in Google’s New York cafeteria, though it used to be thought difficult to get people to eat it.While 83percent of cultivated sea vegetables are produced for human consumption, we aren't just eating it. Seaweed is used in fertilizers and animal feed, and seaweed-based food additives are likely in many products in your kitchen and bathroom right now. Carrageenan, made from red seaweed, is in everything from shampoo and toothpaste to ice cream and some hot dogs.While seaweed grows readily- there are concerns that humans are taking too much of the wild stuff. It is possible that overexploitation of natural seaweed resources could lead to significant ecological, economic, and social consequences at local, regional, and even global scales. In Lalin American countries like Brazil and Peru, where the seaweed industry is based on harvesting wild seaweed rather than cultivated, the need for environmentally friendly models is urgent.58.What do you know about seaweed? _____A.It is hard to grow. B.It is good to health.C.It tastes delicious. D.It costs a great deal59.What can we learn from the passage? _____A.How people collect weed. B.What people do with seaweedC.How people cook with seaweed. D.Where people trade seaweed.60.Why is seaweed cultivated according to the passage? _____A.To make the best of the seas and to increase the export of seaweed.B.To help more people out of poverty and to open up its new markets.C.To meet the needs of the market and to preserve the wild resources.D.To cut the costs of seaweed industry and to benefit rural population.CThousands of people impact all aspects of our lives* be it the weatherman at the TV studio in a neigh boy ring city, or the technician at a phone company across the continent, or the woman in Tobago who picks the mangoes for your fruit Scaled. Every day. intentionally or unintentionally, we make a large number of connections with people around the world.Our personal growth and evolution (and the evolution of societies) come about as a result of connecting with our fellow humans, whether as a band of young warriors setting out on a hunt or as a group of co-workers heading out to the local bakery after work on Friday, As a species(物种), we are instinctively(本能地) driven to come together and form groups of friends, associations and communities, Without them, we cannot exist.Making connections is what our gray matter does best. It receives information from our sense and processes it by making associations. It grows quickly when it's making connections.People do the same thing. It's a scientific fact that people who stay socially and physically active hive a longer life. This doesn't mean staying with the same old crowd and going around on an exercise bike. It means getting out and making new friends.When you make new connections in the outside world_ you make new connections in the inside world—in your brain. This keeps you young and alert(机警的)-Edward M. Hallowell, in his book Connect, cites the 1979Alameda County Study by Dr, Lisa Bergman of the Harvard School of Health Sciences. Dr, Berkman and her team carefully looked at 7, 000 people- aged 35to 65, over a period of nine yews. Their study concludes that people who lack social and community connections are almost three times more likely to die of medical illness than those who have more contacts. And all this is independent of socioeconomic status and health practices such as smoking, alcoholic beverage consumption or physical activity!Other people can also help you take care of your needs and desires, Whatever it is you'd like in this life—romance, a dream job, ticket to the Rose Bowl—the chances are pretty high that you'll need someone's help to get it. If people like you. they will be willing to give you their time and their efforts. And the better the quality of harmonious relationship you have with them, the higher the level of their cooperation.61.Which of the following is laid great stress on in the passage? _____A.Our fate is decided by the companions we keep.B.People connect with each other out of necessity.C.Contacts between people are essential for our life.D.Conned ion is established when we work together.62.The underlined part44gray matter” in Paragraph 3refers to _____A.nerve B.cell C.sight D.brain63.Dr, Berkman and his team's study reverb _____A.a wonder cure for deadly diseasesB.a vital function of connectingC.a great encouragement to smokersD.a practical way to connection64.Which of the following can be Inc. proper little for the passage? _____A.The Benefits of Connecting B.The Progress of ConnectionC.The Methods of Connecting D.The Features of ConnectionDMy grandmother Rosalind Einkorn was born exactly fifty-two year's before I was, on August 28, 1917, Like many poor Jewish families in New York City, hers lived in a small, crowded apartment close to their relatives. Her parents, aunts, and uncles addressed her male cousins by their given names, but she and her sister were referred to only as "Girlie”.During the Depression t my grandmother was pulled out of Morris High School to help support the household by sewing fabric flowers onto undergarments that her mother could resell for a tiny profit. No one in the community would have considered taking a boy out of school. A boy's education was the family's hope to move up the financial and social ladder Education for girls, however, was less significant both financially, since they were unlikely to contribute to the family's income, and culturally, since hoys were expected to study the Torah while girls were expected to run a “proper home?!”Luckily for my grandmother, a local teacher insisted that her parents put her back into school. She went on not only to finish high school but to graduate from U. C Berkeley.After college, “Girlie”worked selling pocketbooks and accessories at David's Fifth Avenue. When she left her job to marry my grandfather, David's had to hire four people to replace her. Years later, when my grandfathers paint business was struggling, she jumped in and look some of the hard steps he was reluctant to take, helping to save the family from financial ruin. She displayed her business ability again in her forties. After being diagnosed(诊断)with breast cancer, she beat it and then devoted herself to raising money for the clinic that treated her by selling some watches. Girlie ended up with a profit that Apple would envy. I have never met anyone with more energy and determination than, my grandmother.When my grandmother had children of her own—my mother and her two brothers—she emphasized education for all of them. My mother attended the University of Pennsylvania, When she graduated in 1965with a degree in French literature, she surveyed a workforce that she believed consisted of two career options for women: teaching or nursing. She chose teaching. She began a Ph. D.programmer, got married, and then dropped out when shebecame pregnant with me. It was thought to be a sign of weakness if a husband needed his wife's help to support their family, so my mother became a stay-at-home parent and an active volunteer. The centuries-old division of labor stood.Even though I grew up in a traditional home, my parents had the same expectations for me. my sister, and my brother. All three of us were encouraged to do well in school. do equal routine tasks, and participate in after-school activities. We were all supposed to be athletic too. My brother and sister joined sports teams, but I was the kid who got picked last in gym, Despite my athletic shortcomings. I was raised to believe that girls could do anything boys could do and that all career paths were open to me.When I arrived at college in the fall of 1987.my classmates of both genders seemed equally focused on academics. I don't remember thinking about my future career differently from the male students. I also don't remember any conversations about someday balancing work and children. My friends and I assumed that we would have both. Men and women competed openly and aggressively with one another in classes, activities, and job interviews. Just two generations removed from my grandmother, the playing field seemed to be level.But more than twenty years after my college graduation. the world has not evolved nearly as much as I believed it would. Almost all of my male classmates work in professional settings. Sonic of my female classmates work full-time or part-time outside the home. and just as many are stay-at-home mothers and volunteers like my mom. This mirrors the national trend. In comparison to their male counterparts(相同能力者), highly trained women are scaling back and dropping out of the workforce in high numbers.65.Why were the writer's grandma and her sisters called "Girli e”? _____A.They had not yet got their given names.B.They were highly valued by their ciders,C.They shared apparent similarities in many ways.D.They were regarded as less important than boys.66.From Paragraph 2we can mainly learn _____A.how people suffered during I he DepressionB.what resulted in the social division of laborC.who took responsibility for supporting a familyD.why education was essential for all the children67.What conclusion am we draw about the writer's grandmother? _____A.She was an extraordinarily able and tough woman.B.She was full of ideas for solving various problems,C.She benefited greatly from her family background,D.She had special ways of teaching her own children,68.What might people think when the writer s mother gave up her job? _____A.Her freedom of choice ought to be well respectedB.Her job should be taken over by a younger person,C.It was a real shame about her losing that good job.D.It was quite normal for a woman like her to do so.69.From the description of the writer's own life, we can see _____A.great expectations in the students' mindsB.seeming social progress in certain aspectC.innocent friendship between boys and girlsD.positive attitudes to work and competitions70.By writing the passage* the writer intends to reveal _____A.the necessity of women's educationB.the importance of women's liberationC.the existence of gender discriminationD.the lives of three generations of women第Ⅱ卷(两部分共35分)第四部分任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)请认真阅读短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入1个最恰当的单词.注意:请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号店的横线上.每个空格只填1个单词.When was the last time you read a. book, or a magazine article? Do your everyday reading habits center around updates on the Internet?

Being able to express your ideas clearly in words is of great help in any profession? and knowing that you can speak to higher-ran king people with self-confidence can he a great encouragement to your self-esteem(自尊). It could even aid in your career. as those who are well-read, well-spoken, and knowledgeable on a variety of topics tend to get promotions more quickly (and more often) than those with smaller vocabularies and lack of awareness of literature, scientific breakthroughs, and global events.

Second, very importantly, it's not 100% safe to give your credit card number over the Internet You don't know who might see it and use it. And finally, not all Web addresses are for real companies.

It was a scene that had been repeated man y times in the theater’s 75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete. He added that the theater’s location(位置) was also a reason. ―This used to be the center of town,‖ he said. ―Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.‖Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.The theater audience said good-by as Bradford locked the doors for the last time. After 75 years the Plaza Theater has shown its last movie. The theater will be missed.24.In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?A.It made room for new equipment.B.It signaled the closedown of the theater.C.It was done with the help of the audience.D.It marked the 75th anniversary of the theater.25.Why was The Last Picture Show put on?A.It was an all-time classic.B.It was about the history of the town.C.The audience requested it.D.The theater owner found it suitable.26. What will probably happen to the building?A.It will be repaired.B.It will be turned into a museum.C.It will be knocked down.D.It will be sold to the city government.27. What can we infer about the audience?A. They are disappointed with Bradford.B. They are sad to part with the old theater.C. They are supportive of the city officials.D. They are eager to have a shopping center.CAfter years of heated debate, gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park. Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park. By last year, the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170 wolves.Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States, but they were gradually displaced by human development. By the 1920s, wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area. They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada, where there were fewer humans around.The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results. Deer and elk populations —major food sources (来源) for the wolf – grew rapidly. These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation (植被), whichreduced plant diversity in the park. In the absence of wolves, coyote populations also grew quickly. The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park’ s red foxes, and completely drove away the park’ s beavers.As early as 1966,biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park.They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems.Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolves. The U.S.Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone.Today,the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone.Elk,deer,and coyote populations are down,while beavers and red fores have made a comeback.The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.28.What is the text mainly about?A.Wildlife research in the United States.B.Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.C.The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.D.The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.29.What does the underlined word ―displaced‖ in paragraph 2 mean?A.Tested.B.Separated.C.Forced out.D.Tracked down.30.What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about?A.Damage to local ecology.B.A decline in the park’s income.C.Preservation of vegetation.D.An increase in the variety of animals.31.What is the author’s attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project?A.Doubtful.B.Positive.C.Disapproving.D.Uncaring.DThe Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named ―DriveLAB‖ in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are.Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and well-being among older people, leading to them becoming more isolated(隔绝) and inactive.Led by Professor Phil Blythe, the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life.These include custom-made navigation(导航) tools, night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations. Phil Blythe explains: ―For many older pe ople, particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is important for preserving their independence, giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others.‖―But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions s low down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills. The result is that people stop driving before they really need to.‖Dr Amy Guo, the leading researcher on the older driver study, explains, ―The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.―For example, most of us would expect older drivers always go slow er than everyone else but surprisingly, we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined. We’re looking at the benefits of systems which control their s peed as a way of preventing that.―We hope that our work will help with technological solutions(解决方案) to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.‖32.What is the purpose of the Drivel AB?A.To explore newmeans of transport.B.To design new types of cars.C.To find out older driver`s problems.D.To teach people traffic rules.33.Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe?A.It keeps them independent.B.It helps them save time.C.It builds up their strength.D.It cures their mental illnesses.34.What do researchers hope to do for older drivers?A.Improve their driving skills.B.Develop driver-assist technologies.C.Provide tips on repairing their cars.anize regular physical checkups.35.What is the best title for the text?A.A new Model Electric CarB.A Solution to Traffic ProblemC.Driving Service for eldersD.Keeping Older Drivers on the Road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学&科&网最佳选项。

AHow will you celebrate New Year’s Eve? By having a party with your classmates? Going to the karaoke for a singing competition? Many people around the world celebrate the day. Let’s have a look at what people in other c ountries do.In the United States, thousands of people jam into Times Square in New York to welcome in the new year at midnight. The change from New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day is very exciting. People count down the seconds to welcome the new day as the New Year ball slowly gets down and lights up the area.In Spain, when the clock strikes midnight, everyone eats 12 grapes. They eat one grape for each toll (钟声) to bring good luck for the next 12 months of the new year.In Scotland, fireworks are set off in front of the Edinburgh Castle. Immediately after midnight, people sing Auld Lang Syne. The words are in Scottish and mean “days gone by”. The famous Scottish poet Robert Burns wrote the song.In Brazil, most people wear white clothes on New Year’s Eve to bring good luck for the new year. If they live near a beach, aftermidnight, people go there, light candles in the sand, throw flowers in the sea and make a wish.

After all, nobody has seen a living dinosaur. This book explains how scientists and artists work together to re-create dinosaurs. As scientific discoveries have been made, the models have changed. Scientific tests may one day expose what a dinosaur’s coloring was, but now artists have to use their imagination to determine how these huge creatures looked.Beyond the Solar System by Mary Kay Carson, 128 pages, ages 10-13This book takes readers back to the beginnings of space exploration—thousands of years ago, when people began star observation—and forward to today’s search for planets in distant parts of the Milky Way.

The activities are perfect for cold winter days.Ultimate Bugopedia by Darlyne Murawski and Nancy Honovich, 272 pages, ages 7 and olderIf you’re always on the lookout for butterflies, this book is for you.

Kelly, a policeman, said “He says that there was an evil spell that was cast on him.”Camara, who was in stable condition at St. Barnabas Hospital, was later charged with the murder of Rita Morelli.The 36-year-old woman was getting a degree at Borough of Manhattan Community College as she waited tables at Caffe Buon Gusto on the upper East Side, police said. Camara called 911 from a payphone after killing the lively Morelli on Nov. 23.Her body was later found in her E. 120th St. home. She was hanged and had knife wounds to her throat and chest.Policemen began dialing numbers from Morelli’s cell phone and when Camara picked up, a detective recognized his voice as the man who called in the report of a dead body, police said. When officers went to Camara’s home, he locked himself inside, forcing policemen to burst down the front door to catch him.“He is standing there with a knife pointed at his chest,” Kelly, a policeman, said. “He makes threatening statements as to the fact that he killed the woman. He then stabs himself in the chest.”Camara, who told police he served six years in prison for robbery back in his native country, was still waiting to be charged with murder Thursday.Morelli left her hometown of Spoltore, Italy, five years ago to fully experience the arts and music culture of the big city, her family said.8.

It requires you to predict what other road users will do and get ready to react to something unexpected. When alcohol is consumed, it enters your bloodstream and acts as a depressant (抑制药), damaging eyesight, judgment and co-ordination(协调), slowing down reaction time and greatly increasing the risk of accidents. Even below the drink driving limit, driving will be affected.Alcohol may take a few minutes to be absorbed into the bloodstream and start action on the brain. Absorption rate is increased when drinking on an empty stomach or when consuming drinks mixed with fruit juice. To get rid of alcohol from the body is a very slow process and it is not possible to speed itup with any measures like taking a shower or having a cup of tea or coffee.The present Road Traffic Ordinance states clearly that the limit of alcohol concentration is:● 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of blood; or● 22 micrograms of alcohol per 100ml of brea th; or● 67 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of urine (尿液).Drivers who cause traffic accidents, or who commit a moving traffic offence or are being suspected of drink driving will be tested.Any drive found drinking beyond the limit will be charged. The driver declared guilty may be fined a maximum of HK $25,000 and be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison and punished for 10 driving-offence points; or temporarily banned from driving.The same punishment applies to failing to provide specimens (样本) far breath, blood or urine tests without good excuse.Drink driving is a criminal offence. Be a responsible driver, think before you drink. For the safety of yourself and other road users, never drive after consuming alcohol.12. The first paragraph is mainly about ________.A. the introduction of driving skillsB. the damage of drinking to your bodyC. the effect of drinking on drivingD. the process of alcohol being absorbed13. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to “________”.A. alcoholB. absorptionC. bloodD. process14. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Drinking below the drink driving limit has no effect on driving.B. Alcohol is taken in more quickly when drunk with fruit juice.C. Having a cup of tea helps to get rid of alcohol from the body.D. 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of breath is below the drink limit.15. A drive suspected of drink driving ________.A. should provide specimens for testingB. will be forbidden to drive for 3yearsC. will be punished for 10 driving-offence pointsD. should pay a maximum fine of HK $25,000第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Most Popular Instagram Photos.BJessica Westervelt,a Spanish teacher at Bethlehem High School in New Yor,created an activity called “House Hunters”,which was inspired by the popular television show “House Hunters International”,for her Spanish class about four years ago.Similar to the show,students wor in groups,pretending to be real house agents,and loo for three houses in Spanish-speaing countries.She uses the activity to teach vocabulary related to the home,chores,travel and vacation.She created the eercise because she wanted to incorporate her students’ interests into the curriculum.At the time,a group of her students were big fans of the show.The students loo for a house for Westervelt to buy to live in,or rent for vacation.She tells them what she is looing for in a home and gives them a budget.Students wor in groups of three,and each student is responsible for finding one house in a Spanish-speaing country that fits the requirements.The groups usually mae a brochure describing the houses they find.Each group presents their findings to the class,while the other students tae notes.The entire activity is done in Spanish,so students get to practice their writing,listening and conversation sills.They also get some cultural education when researching homes in Spanish-speaing countries.Westervelt says that students planning to tae the class loo forward to her project.Westervelt says,“I thin any time that you can find a way to lin into something that they are interested in outside of school,it maes it more realistic for them and it maes that activity much more enjoyable for them.”25.How did Westervelt come up with the idea of the activity?A.She got it from a TV program.B.She was inspired by her students.C.She learned it from a house agent.D.She was taught that in high school.26.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “incorporate” in Paragraph 2?A.changeB.absorbC.forceD.persuade27.What are the students supposed to do with the houses they find?A.Rent the houses for their vacation.B.Live in the houses for a while.C.Write an introduction to the houses.D.Choose and buy one for their teacher.28.What do Westervelt’s words in the last paragraph mean?A.Most school activities are not enjoyable.B.Students should be realistic about study.C.Out-of-school activities are very important.D.Learning should be combined with interest.CA new study suggests that washing dishes by hand is healthier than using a dishwasher.Nobody lies doing the dishes,but it turns out that doing this tas might pay off in an unepected way.According to a new study published in the Journal of Pediatrics,washing dishes by hand instead of using a dishwasher might prevent the development of allergies(过敏).Researchers in Sweden surveyed the parents of 1,029 children aged 7 and 8.They discovered that children whose families hand-washed the dishes instead of using a machine were less liely to have allergies.Earlier research has shown that dishes washed by machine are cleaner than those washed by hand.So why would ids who eat off of slightly dirtier plates be better off when it comes to preventing allergies?One eplanation is based on a theory nown as the “hygiene hypothesis”,which says the reason ids develop allergies is that their surroundings are actually too clean.Your immune system eeps you healthy by fighting germs(细菌)lie bacteria and viruses.But when you have allergies,it overreacts and tries to fight ordinary things lie pollen(花粉)or certain foods.Being eposed to germs,especially early in life,is good training for the immune system,says the lead author of the study,Dr.Bill Hesselmar of Queen Silvia Hospital in Sweden.“You stimulate the immune system in various ways and it becomes tolerant.”This study shows that while using the dishwasher might be easier,the old-fashioned method of cleaning up could be better for your health.29.What is the benefit of washing dishes by hand?A.It can improve our immune system.B.It is easier than washing by machine.C.It costs less time than washing by machine.D.It might reduce the chance of developing allergies.30.What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A.Our health depends much on our immune system.B.Children in clean environment must have allergies.C.Our immune system can only fight bacteria and viruses.D.Hand-washed dishes are as clean as those washed by machine.31.What do we now about germs from the passage?A.Without germs,people won’t get sic.B.There are no germs in clean environment.C.Eposure to germs can improve our immune system.D.Germs lie bacteria and viruses do harm to our health.DHalf off usually unaffordable products?Only $49.99 for that $100.00 dinner?That’s themagic of Groupon,but for some small business owners the “great business” offered by Groupon can be equal to the iss of death.How could that occur?The math of Groupon seems simple at a glance,but upon further inspection the numbers don’t add up when it comes to smaller businesses.A Groupon typically offers a 50% discount on a product or service;then the remaining profit is divided between Groupon and the small business.While Groupon has already received the profit in advance,the merchant is left waiting for their cut.Those worrying numbers are assuming the price cut is 50/50,which,in some cases,is being generous.When you brea it down to numbers,a Groupon deal seems disastrous,but it’s not only the numbers small business owners have to worry about.The point of Groupon deals is to attract new and hopefully long term customers.Yet,does this actually happen?The majority of consumers buying the Groupon are there for the bargain and don’t return after using their Groupon.CFHS Junior Angelita Pope stated,“I love the deals offered by Groupon!They can really save you so much money.”However,she went on to say that she hadn’t returned once to any of the businesses after using her Groupon.For some small businesses,the pressure lies with the responses of their loyal customers,who watch as new faces get the same product or service for half the price that they have been paying for years.When you brea it down,Groupon indicates that the business offering the deal is not only willing to be fleible with their price,but also that their product or service isn’t worth the price they’re charging for.When combining these factors,it’s no wonder loyal customers are put off by the idea of their favorite shop offering Groupons.Now I by no means say Groupons have bad effects on all businesses;however the storm of Groupon is actually a disaster for a small business.32.What is good about Groupon?A.It can offer a large discount.B.It helps add up the numbers.C.It can improve the quality of the product.D.It brings small business owners more profit.33.CFHS Junior Angelita Pope’s statement suggests that .A.small business owners needn’t worry about dealsB.people lie using Groupon in the same businessC.the purpose of Groupon is to promote businessD.Groupon may not bring customers bac34.What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A.New faces.B.Loyal customers.C.Groupon dealers.D.Small businesses.35.What could be the best title for the tet?A.A new business trend—Groupon dealingB.The development of a Groupon companyC.The effects of Groupon on small businessesD.A fantastic shopping eperience—Groupon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,选项中有两项为多余选项。
