AAfter a terrible electrical accident, which caused him to become both blind and deaf, the whole world became completely dark and quiet for Robert Edwards for almost ten years．The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life．His family, especially his wife, did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live．One hot summer afternoon, he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once．He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet, but he was struckby the lightning．Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later lying face down in muddy water at the base of the tree．He was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes, he could hardly believe what he saw: a plough and a wall．When Mrs. Edwards came running up to him, shouting to their neighbors to call for help, he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years．The news of Robert regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread, and many doctors came to examine him．Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning．However, none of them could give a convincing answer as to why this should have happened．The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since Robert lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock, perhaps, the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock．21．The reason for Robert’s attempts to kill himself was that _________．A．a terrible traffic accident happened to himB．he had to live in a dark and silent worldC．he was struck by the lightning once moreD．nobody in the world cared about him22．What was Robert doing when he was struck by the lightning?A．Sheltering from the rain under a tree．B．Driving a car．C．Taking a walk with a stick．D．Lying on the ground．23．We can infer from the text that ________．A．there was no accurate explanation for Robert’s recoveryB．many doctors came because Robert was badly injuredC．Robert’s wife sent for doctors immediately after the shockD．a sudden injury in the head led to Robert’s recovery24．What’s the best title of the whole passage?A．A Terrible Electrical AccidentB．Robert Edwards and His WifeC．What a Sudden ShockD．An Unforgettable ExperienceBIt must be something that many American companies hold a baby contest．Of course, babies are wonderful, and many parents would be the first to agree．Companies really bring in much money．Walgreens Baby contestIf you play the new Baby Milestones Challenge Contest by BabyCenter & Walgreens, you could win $1,000 in Walgreens & Beauty．com Gift Cards and Certificates．You can play the instant winner if you g et a $25 Walgreen’s gift card, but you also have to write down your email address and receive all their sales and other information for the contest．Kids and BabiesKids and Babies are accepting entries for May 2014 Free Photo Contest．Baby Photo Galley with theme albums and age group albums is moved to the new website Cute Baby Gallery．Check KidsandBibs．com for their Baby Photo Contest blog’s latest update．The grand prize is $25,000．The catch: Winners are decided by the visitors coming to the site and voting for their favorite babies, so you have to advertise their site for them．Parents．comParents．com has a website only for their members, but if you are into baby photos, it is well worth surfing．You could receive offers on free samples, money-saving coupons （优惠券）, and chances to win the latest contests．AvonAvon is another company that has a baby photo contest this spring．Avon is advertising their newest collection．It is Avon’s only collection for the photos of babies．Babies’ age: newborn to 2 years．Just go to TinyTillia．com and upload your recent baby’s photos．The first place baby will be featured in a Tiny Tillia Storybooks and win a $5,000 U．S．Savings Bond．Ten beautiful girls will win $300 worth of Tiny Tillia products．The tip is to run a search engine for all the latest contests going on and start entering them today．You could be lucky and win enough to put your baby through college!

One reason is that it’s easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code．” “Alot of young people don’t want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so it’s hard t o hire people if you have a conservative（保守的）dress code．” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes．In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale（心境，士气）．Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative influence on productivity．Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money．“Suits are expensiv e, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said．“For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes．”29．David Smith refers to himself as having been “a clothes addict,” because ________．A．he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirtB．he couldn’t stand a clean appearanceC．he wanted his clothes to look neat all the timeD．he didn’t want to spend much money on clothes30．David Smith wears casual clothes now, because__________．A．they make him feel at ease when workingB．he cannot afford to buy expensive clothesC．he looks handsome in casual clothesD．he no longer works for any company31．In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned EXCEPT __________．A．saving employees’ moneyB．making employees more attractiveC．improving employees’ motivationD．making employees happierDIn Los Angeles, drivers spend sixty-one hours every year stuck in traffic．These drivers know all too well how bad the traffic can be．“There're too many cars, and you can't move around a lot．”Professor Cyrus Shahabi also knows about traffic jams．He lives more than 65 kilometers from his office at the University of Southern California, in Los Angeles．He is always late even with thehelp of a navigation （导航）system．He decided to develop a program called ClearPath for that．He says his program uses historical data to predict traffic conditions even before the driver leaves the house．“What’s unique is that we use a lot of data that’s currently become available inc luding traffic data, weather data, and we analyze that so that we can predict what's going to happen in front of you when you leave home．”Professor Shahabi says his system does more than just respond to current traffic conditions．With ClearPath, he says, a driver can decide what time he wants to leave, and ClearPath will give the fastest route．It looks at the entire road network, including surface streets as well as highways, before the driver hits the road．Professor Shahabi hopes to have ClearPath available nationwide and overseas once they can collect traffic data from other cities．“I always thought thatLos Angeles had the worst traffic, but now I know that Shanghai, Beijing, Seoul, Tokyo, believe it or not, Singapore, Hong Kong certainly are examples that can immediately use this．”Professor Shahabi hopes to share this new technology with companies that already have navigation systems, such as Google and Apple．32．Drivers in Los Angeles were mentioned in order to__________．A．show care for them B．introduce their lifeC．solve traffic problems D．raise the topic33．What is unique about ClearPath?A．It can use a lot of information all over the world．B．It can ensure that you will never be late for work．C．It helps drivers see clearly what happens on the road．D．It helps drivers know the road conditions ahead of time．34．The underlined word “hits” in the fifth paragraph probably means __________．A．have an accident B．get toC．turn left or right D．collect traffic data35．What's Professor Shahabi’s attitude toward his invention?A．Disappointed．B．Proud．C．Optimistic．D．Worried．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。
