It is heavy in weight and can not easily be disposed(处理)of like other garbage due to dampness. Separating kitchen waste from other waste can help to reduce organic matter in landfills, reducing smell and waste liquid and protecting disposal equipment. It is therefore necessary to perform garbage classification when disposing of kitchen waste.There are special garbage trucks to process kitchen waste. Labeled “Kitchen Waste”, the beds of the trucks are covered in a hermetic(密封的) metal topper to contain the smell of the rotting organic waste. There are two sizes of the trucks —the smaller ones are designed to move through narrow streets, especially in the old-fashioned hutong, the larger ones are for wider streets.Everyday, they stop at the residential(居住的) communities in Xicheng district, pick up their kitchen waste and carry it to the kitchen waste transfer buildings nearby. And Fengrongyuan residential community is one of them. It has 10 residential buildings and 606 families. In the试卷第2页,共12页afternoon. Two garbage trucks arrive at the community to collect its kitchen waste. The community now has 31 sets of garbage cans. Every set has three cans in different colors, green for kitchen waste, blue for recyclable waste and grey for other garbage.Yang Kun, an official of Financial Street office, said that if residents in the community can respect the waste regulations and make it a standard practice in their daily life, they could be rewarded for their efforts.After the two trucks are loaded with kitchen waste at Fengronfyuan, they will leave for the Xibianmen garbage storage building, where they are weighed before driving to an area to unload. The building has six big boxes to contain the kitchen waste.To save resources and promote the disposal of household waste, the first step is garbage classification as conducted by residents.1、What can be learned about kitchen waste from Paragraph1? A .It is too damp and heavy to easily dispose of. B .It can be as easily disposed of as other garbage. C .It helps to reduce organic matter in landfills. D .It is necessary for garbage classification.2、What is needed to prevent the organic waste letting out smell? A .Trucks with a hermetic metal popper. B .Trucks labeled “Kitchen Waste”. C .Wider streets for garbage trucks. D .Waste transfer buildings nearby.3、Where is the kitchen waste weighed before being unloaded? A .Old-fashion hutong. B .Xicheng district.C .Fengrongyuan residential community.D .The Xibianmen garbage storage building. 4、What’s the main idea of the text?A .Kitchen waste does harm to the disposal equipment.B .It’s a practice to respect the waste sorting regulations.C .The disposal of kitchen waste is aimed to save resources.D .The disposal of household waste begins with garbage classification.Do you think studying in a different country is something that sounds very exciting and great fun? Certainly, it is a new experience, one that brings the opportunity(机会) to discover amazing things and a feeling of freedom. But do remember that there are also some challenges you will meet, for your views may disagree with the different beliefs, norms(社会准则), values and traditions of different countries. This is called “culture shock”. The follo wing are the stages of adjusting.The first stage is called ”the honeymoon”, where you are excited about living in a different place, and everything seems to be fantastic.Eventually, however, the second stage of culture shock appears, “the hostility stage”. You begin to notice that not everything that seemed so wonderful initially is now awful, making you feel distressed and tired. Usually at this point, you use some defense mechanisms(机制) to help you cope(应付) and to protect yourself against the effects of culture shock. Two of them are “repression”, which happens when you pretend that everything is acceptable and that nothing bothers you, and “regression”, when you start to act like a child, sometimes careless and irresponsible. The third kind is “isolation”. You don’t want to communicate with anybody, cutting yourself off the world. The last type is “rejection”, where you think you don’t need anybody, feeling you are coping fine alone.After you deal with your hostile feelings, next comes the stage, “recovery”, when you begin to see things of a different culture you can learn to appreciate.The last stage is “adjustment”. In this stage, you have reached a point where you actually feel good because you are able to understand the new culture.Culture shock is not something you can avoid in a foreign country. Actually, you learn how to interact with other people, and you learn a considerable amount about life in a new culture. Eventually, you learn more-about yourself.5、How many stages of culture shock does the text mention?A.4.B.6.C.7.D.8.6、Which mechanism does a person apply if he pretends to accept everything in a new culture? A.Repression.B.Regression.试卷第4页,共12页C .Isolation.D .Rejection.7、What’s the writer’s attitude towards culture shock? A .Serious. B .Positive. C .Cautious. D .Scared.8、Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A .A New Experience B .Stages of adjustment C .Culture Shock D .Defense MechanismsIn many cases they have built their reputations over hundreds of years, and they have become names that millions of Chinese love, respect and most of all buy.At least once a year, Meng Wei visits several shops in Beijing that specialize in traditional goods, longing to buy something for his family in Xi’an.“It’s a routine I go through before I head home for big holidays such as the Spring Festival,” Meng says.His shopping list includes Daoxiangcun pastries and Niulanshan Erguotou. “My mother has a sweet tooth and she always has a preference for Daoxiangcun, and my uncles love the kick of Ergu otou,” Meng says.A trust in quality and a desire for things of the past are among the reasons why many people buy these time-honored brands.However, with such brands one characteristic stands out above all else: Their popularity has endured for years, decades and in many cases centuries. That popularity was evident in the attention the public gave to them in a survey (调查) of time-honored brands in Beijing last year, which drew more than 4 million respondents.Yili, a century-old pastry brand, came out on top as the favorite. There are some old brands, too, that have been bywords for older generations, faded from view but then made spectacular comebacks.One of these is Beibingyang (Arctic Ocean) a soft drink that was the first commercial beveragemany Beijingers tasted. It disappeared from the market for 15 years but resurfaced in 2010. It again proved to be a hit, many people saying it took them back to the 1960s and 1970s, and was a natural reference point as older people started recounting childhood stories to their children. "Such brands are the product of market competition and real quality," says Yin Jie, an official with a committee of experts charged with revitalizing Chinese time-honored brands. These brands are 230 years old on average, and some were highly popular back when the country enjoyed great prosperity(繁荣)hundreds of years ago, Yin says. "To this day what China contributes to these brands is certain rare natural ingredients(成分), and that keeps them going."9、What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.Big holidays.B.Time-honored brands.C.The respondents.D.The older generations.10、What does Meng Wei usually do in the Spring Festivals?A.He runs several shops selling traditional goods.B.He shops traditional brands for his family.C.He misses the things of the past very much.D.He buys various sweeties and drinks.11、What can be learned about the time-honored brands?A.They are not trusted in quality and competition.B.Many disappeared and never made comebacks.C.They enjoy a long time of popularity.D.They are the childhood stories of the aged.12、What does Yin Jie think important in keeping time-honored brands going? A.China’s prosperity.B.Historic influence.C.Certain rare natural ingredients.D.Bywords for older generations.Monthly active users of WeChat, a popular social networking App run by Internet TencentHoldings Ltd, rose to 889 million last year, up 28 percent year-on-year, according to a report on试卷第6页,共12页Thursday.The report said the number of active WeChat users last year helped directly drive 174.3 billion yuan of information-sector(信息产业)spending, an increase of 26.2 percent on the previous year.The government has urged to expand consumption to create new sources(来源)of economic growth and to help drive industry upgrading.The report added that the popular message App, which provides a wide range of services, created jobs for 18.81 million people in 2016, up 7.7 percent year-on-year.It found that the percentage of older WeChat users gradually increasing. Those aged over 55 using voice messages accounted for 22 percent of the total, while their average length of time spent on audio and video calling service reached 82 minutes, higher than other groups of users. The report also found that WeChat has quickened the transmission(传送) of information, changed people’s paying habits because they only need to take their mobile phones when going out to shop, and create the channels with which people get information.Ma Shicong, an analyst at Beijing-based Internet Consultancy Analysis, said: “WeChat has accumulated a large number of faithful users by providing various services, from instant messaging, information to mobile payments. WeChat helps make lives easier and more convenient.”The report also showed the WeChat official accounts were favored by users, with 36.1 percent of them following or subscribing to accounts related to in news and information. 13、What’s the desire of the government according to the text?

These were teens and adults up to the age of 40. We learned new steps together. Welaughed together and we shared a love of music and fellowship.I had one pupil, Dan, who didn ’ t appear to get much out of the class. I neverhad eye contact with him. When I left the class to travel down the stairs to reachthe main floor of the building, he moved worriedly as a blind person might do inunfamiliar condition.One day his parents met me shopping downtown and told me that they were sograteful that I was teaching the class. They said that my class was the high point of their son’ s week. Were they just being polite?A week later, a snowstorm held me up and I was later than usual pulling intothe school parking lot. Ahead of me by one row of cars, and over to one side, wasmy student, Dan and his worker. I could see his face as he moved toward the building.He was excited. I watched Dan run toward the building in anticipation of(希望着) his weekly treat, my class. I cried as it hit me that though I could not see inclass all that Dan got from the class, it surely meant a lot to him. Dan didindeed love the class. He was getting enjoyment out of it.Today when I teach courses at the College to students, I remind them thatchildren can stand on the sidelines and seem to be uninterested and yet they canbe learning at the same pace as those who are in the middle of the activity.When I teach this, I think, yes and this is true for those with disabilities too!Teach with the wonderful enthusiasm and you are bound to reach your students.Do your job with a love for others and you will be successful no matter what yourjob involves.25.

It’ s not real.”The original advertisement became the target of punishment by the governmentfor over-spreading the effects of the shampoo after it was broadcast in 2004.“ Duang”has now become one of the hottest topics on Sina Weibo, a Twitter-like Chinese social network site among those crazy ones imitating Jackie Chan’ s speech in different situations.The actor’ s Weibo account was flooded with comments containing the word inthis sweeping online trend.The video came at a time when the famous movie star has been under publicattention after trying to save the ill image of his son, Jaycee Chan, whowas released from prison this week.Data from Baidu, the major Chinese search engine, also proved the phrase’ s popularity as it has been searched more than 586,000 times within two days.The word of geili’ s sudden rise in 2010 caught the attention of international media when it made up for the word’ s official translation- geilivable- to describe something cool or awesome.It ’ s not the first time that online word has become a regular vocabulary inChina.29. From the passage we know that the word“ Duang”was originally made .A. by some crazy Internet usersB. to refer to a kind of productC. by Hong Kong actor Jackie ChanD. to expresssome special meaning30. From the passage we know that the new word“geili”is .A. only popular in ChinaB. a cool and awesome wordC. used by ordinary peopleD. also widely used abroad31.

To explain how Jackie Chan invented the popular word.D. To urge people to fight against the false advertisements.DDennis Sinar,51,a doctor from NewYork,is quick to explain why he took a year-long break from his job.“ I was pretty burned out after practicing medicine for 26 years.I needed a recharge.” So he took a“ gap year ”, from July 2011 to June 2012, to explore things like ancient buildings,and traditional Eastern medicine, in locations including Alaska, Nepal and Romania.“ Taking a break from work is an excellent way for adults to go into a new career or refresh an old one, ” said Holly Bull,president of Princeton,N, J. “In recent years, mid-career breaks have been gaining more interest,” she said. A report on adult gap years published this year by a market research company also describedthe potential American market for gap years as a“ sleeping giant.”“ A gap year is a challenge for the older individual to step out of a comfortzone and take a risk. I enjoyed that side most.” said Dr. Sinar, who kept a daily blog about his experience.His time studying Eastern medicine“ assured the reasons I went into health care,” said Dr. Sinar, who returned to practice medicine athis old job, although he works fewer days.“ I use those experiences to providemy patients with more care,” he added.“And I listen better than I did before.”George Garritan, chairman of the Department of Leadership and Human Capital Management at New York University, certainly agrees with Dr. Sinar. He said agap-year experience could be worthwhile for employees and companies. For employees, investing in themselves and improving skill sets is a move that will benefitthroughout their career. He added that returning employees feel refreshed and have given more thought to their career. For companies, offering unpaid leaves makesgood sense for attracting and keeping talented employees.32. Dr. Sinar took a gap year because he ______.A. had lost his old jobB. wanted to refresh after 26 years’ workC. had a desire for travellingD. became interested in historical research33. The phrase“ sleeping giant” (in 2nd paragraph) indicates that ______.A. it’s too early for people to accept the concept of gap yearB. the effect of gap year policy remains to be seenC. it’s difficult to foresee the gap year marketD. more American people will accept the gap year policy34. What’ s George Garritan’ s attitude toward the“ gap year” ?A. Positive.B. DoubtfulC. Uninterested.D. Uncertain.35. What’ s the passage mainly about?A. How an adult plans a mid-career gap year.B. Why a gap year is worthwhile for adults.C. Whether a gap year is popular with adults.D. Why a gap year is challenging for individuals.第二节(共 5 小题;每题 2 分,满分10 分)依照短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

They were killed as tornadoes (龙卷风)blew through their small town of Carbon Hill in Alabama, US, between November 8---10.Her sister and niece died when a tornado lifted their small mobile house into the air and threw it upon a tree. Now all that is left is the bent metal frame, which was wrapped (包裹) around the tree. ―Everybody’s house is just gone.

It is just gone.Seven people in Carbon Hill were killed, 250 homes were destroyed and the town no longer has a grade school. It is now just a pile of bricks without a roof. It was only three months ago that Carbon Hill’s hig h school burned down.In Mossy Grove, Tennessee, clothes flapped in the wind, power lines swung in the air and cars were destroyed after the winds threw them around like toys. Over half of the houses in this small town were just a pile of bricks after the tornadoes passed through at up to 224 kilometers an hour.

She said, picture of a story. The information“ What a journalist does is painting a littlehas to be accurate. Therefore, you really haveto be watching and listening.”Mary also emphasized ( 重申 ) the importance of experience.“ It is important to collect as many skills as possible to be able to stand out of the crowd. A lot ofthe skills come from experience, so you won’ t walk in the street and be a goodjournalist. You will be a good journalist because you’ ve done it long enough,”she said.Mary said,“ You will not get a job handed to you. You will have to be prepared to put in long hours; you will have to be prepared to ring people, and you willhave to be prepared to have no money for quite a while. In a word, you will haveto work hard for it. Then it gets to the stage where you love your job and you think`Why is somebody paying me to do something that I really love?From what an experienced journalist said, I learn that it is’not”just about theskills, but also the passion required to work in the field of journalism.4.

By saying“ You will not get a job handed to youmeans the author _________.A. will not become a journalistB. will have to work hard for the jobC. will not get any help from others” in Paragraph 5, Mary HarteD. will get tired of being a journalist soonCIf you could have one superpower (“超能力” ), what would it be?Dreaming about whether you would want to read minds, see through walls, or have superhuman strength may sound silly,but it actually gets to the heart of what really matters in your life.Every day in our work, we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world.They have a different kind of superpower that all of us possess: the power tomake a difference in the lives of others.We’ re not saying that everyone needs to contribute their lives to the poor.Your lives are busy enough doing homework, playing sports,making friends,seeking after your dreams. But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself. Findan issue you are interested in and learn more. Volunteer or,if you can,contributea little money to a cause. Whatever you do, don’ t be a bystander. Get involved.You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you’ re older. But why not start now?Our own experience working together on health,development,and energy the last twenty years has been one of the most rewarding parts of our lives.It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.8.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.

He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends.My earliest memories of my father are of a tall, handsome, su ccessful man devoted to his work and family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult I feared him and felt bitter about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he w as. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to stru ggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard.On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor café. We walked along that af ternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laug hed over my son’s funny facial expressions. Gone was my fat her’s critical air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew a s my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be aro und? What had held him back before?The next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and tol d me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although ou r times together became easier over the years, I never felt clo ser to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last se eing another side of my father.

I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved . I’ve slightly changed my mind afterseventeen years because I think it’s an ugly town now. Things have changed. For everybody, meant gentlemen, fair play, and good manners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good manners—people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disap pearing.I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You ’re forced to live indoors. In I go out much more, to restaurant s and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis beca use I will not take public transport after 10 p. m.

Instead, the 24-year-old law student began thinking about helping low-income women get better jobs. “If a woman goes for a job inte rview(面试) poorly dressed, she won’t get the job,” Lublin says. “But wi thout a job, she can’t afford suitable clothes.”So, with the money founded “Dress for Success” and began collecting women’s clothes which were still in good condition but which their owners no longer needed. “So many women h ave clothes lying around that they will never wear again,” one of Lublin’s assistants says, “’s idea is so simple and yet so im portant to women.”Many women come to ’s office before going to a job interview. Here, they receive a suit, shoes and any other things they ne ed. Since it was set up, more than 1,000 women have turned t o “Dress for Success” for help. Many of them have won jobs. Some have found jobs after being out of work for many years.

This past year has been one of the hardest f or me. I felt I was stuck in a position that had nothing to do with what I wanted to do with my life. In January, after two years of being together, my boyfriend left me.I read your blog every morning as I drink my coffee at work, but it wasn't until this March that I told myself "no more negati vity" as you taught readers in your blog.Since then I've got into new habits at work to keep my ener gy positive. When people walk in the front door, I'm the first fa ce they see, so I smile big when I say "good morning" to them , especially on Mondays. Instead of waiting for someone to as k me for help, I offer it with an open mind. The CEO noticed m y change and offered me the executive assistant position that I wanted.One of the biggestthings I've taken to heart from your blog is changing my opini ons on my job. Yes, it was not an important position, but when I was passionate (热情的) about it, I could make my life fulfilling.All in all, I have to thank you somehow for having the passi on to help others because it truly is inspiring to me. So thank you so much, John. My life has changed because your words pointed me in the right direction, Take care!Sincerely ,Amber24. Amber wrote the letter mainly to______A. introduce herself to JohnB. talk about her bad yearC. ask for some adviceD. express her thanks25. We can infer from the passage that Amber______A. didn't like her boyfriendB. spent a lot of time onlineC. wasn't satisfied with her jobD. received very good e ducation26. What is implied about John in the letter?A. He is a very famous writer.B. He used to live a very negative life.C. He doesn't like sharing his life stories.D. He likes helping others through writing positive blogs.27. What does Amber's change tell us?A. Practice makes perfect.B. Bad luck doesn't exist lo ng.C. A positive attitude is rewarding.D. A friend in need is a f riend indeed.CThe African elephant, the largest land animal remaining on ea rth , is of great importance to African ecosystem(生态系统). Unlike other animals, the African elephant is to a great ex tent the builder of its environment. As a big plant-eater, it largely shapes the forest-and-savanna(大草原)surroundings in which it lives, therefore setting the terms ofexistence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat(栖息地).It is the elephant's great desire for food that makes it a disturb er of the environment and an important builder of its habitat. I n its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must h ave every day, it kills small trees and underbushes, and pulls branches off big trees. This results in numerous open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part ofthe African savannas. In these open spaces are numerous pla nts in various stages of growth that attract a variety of other pl ant-eaters.Take the rain forests for example. In their natural state, the sp reading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor. By pulling down trees and eating plants, elephants make open spaces, allowing new pla nts to grow on the forest floor. In such situations, the forests b ecome suitable for large hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small plant-eaters to get their food as well.What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has b ecome an endangered species. If the elephant disappears, sc ientists say, many other animals will also disappear from vastareas of forest and savanna, greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem.28. What is the passage mainly about?A. Disappearance of African elephants.B. Forests and savannas as habitats for African elephants.C. The effect of African elephants' search for food.D. The eating habit of African elephants.29. What does the underlined phrase “setting the terms” most probably mean?A. Fixing the time.B. Worsening the st ate.C. Improving the quality.D. Deciding the co nditions.30. What do we know about the open spaces in the passage?A. They result from the destruction of rain forests.B. They provide food mainly for African elephants.C. They are home to many endangered animals.D. They are attractive to plant-eating animals of different kinds.31. The passage is developed mainly by________.A. showing the effect and then explaining the causesB. pointing out similarities and differencesC. describing the changes in space orderD. giving examplesDExperiments under way in several labs aim to create beneficia l types of genetically modified foods, including starchier potato es and caffeine-free coffee beans. Genetic engineers are even trying to transf er genes from a cold-winter fish to make a frost-resistant tomato.A low-sugar GM strawberry now in the works might one day allow p eople with health problems such as diabetes (糖尿病) to enjoy the little delicious red fruits again. GM beans and grains rich in protein(蛋白质) might help people at risk of developing kwashiorkor. Kwas hiorkor, a disease caused by severe lack of protein, is commo n in parts of the world where there are severe food shortages. Commenting on GM foods, Jonathon Jones, a British researc her, said: "The future benefits will be enormous(巨大的), and the best is yet to come". To some people, GM foodsare no different from unmodified foods. "A tomato is a tomato ," said Brian Sansoni, an American food manufacturer.Critics of GM foods challenge Sansoni's opinion. They worry a bout the harm that GM crops might do to people, other animal s, and plants.In a recent lab study conducted at Cornell University, scientist s tested pollen(花粉) made by BT corn, which makes up one-fourth of the U.S. corn crop. The scientist dropped the pollen onto milkweed, a plant that is the only known food source of a butterfly caterpillar(毛虫). Within four days of feeding on the leaves, almost half of a test group of caterpillars died. "This is a warning bell." said C ornell researcher Linda Raynor.Some insects that are not killed by GM foods might find thems elves made stronger. How so? The insecticides are used on t he crops to kill the pests. But GM plants produce a continuous level of insecticide. Insects relying on those crops may devel op resistance to the plants and they may also develop a resist ance to the insecticide.At the forum on GM food held last year in Canada. GM crops t hat have been made resistant to the herbicide might crossbre ed with wild plants, creating "superweeds" that could take ove r whole fields.So where do you stand? Should GM food be banned in the U nited States, as they are in parts of Europe? Or do their benef its outweigh(胜过) any of the risks they might carry?32. The first three paragraphs try to give the idea that_______ ___A. GM foods may bring about great benefits to humans.B. GM foods are no different from ordinary ones.C. GM foods may have both benefits and harm.D. GM foods are particularly good to the kwashiorkor patients.33. Why is the pollen-sprayed milkweed mentioned in Paragraph 5?A. To show GM foods can kill insects effectively.B. To show GM foods contain more protein.C. To show GM foods also have a dark side.D. To show GM foods may harm crops.34. What happens to those insects when not killed by the spra y of insecticide?A. They may lose their ability to produce lay eggs.B. They may have a higher ability to adapt to the environment .C. They move to other fields free from insecticide.D. They never eat again those plants containing insecticide.35. Which of the following statements concerning banning GM foods is true according to the passage?A. Underdeveloped countries have banned GM foods.B. Both Europe and the U.S. have banned GM foods.C. Most European countries have not banned GM foods.D. The United States has not banned GM foods.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。

It reminds me a little of what my grandmother used to wear: simple things that were not too fancy.M: Would you like to try it on?W: Maybe I can just check…yeah, just what I thought: a little out of my price range. Thank you, though!M: My pleasure! Let me know if I can help you after my break.Text 7W: So, what do you think you want to study in college, John?M: I’ve been thinking about film studies.W: Really? I had no idea about it.M: Yeah, most people are pretty shocked to learn that about me. But this is a perfect chance for me. I want to see if I can make a career out of something I’m already into.W: What was your parents’ reaction?M: Well, they really want me to be a programmer. They think that’s where the job market is headed for young people. But they understand how much this means to me.W: That’s awesome. Personally, I’m interested in economics. My parents have never pressured me to make any decisions about my major.M: Yeah. Sometimes I wish that my parents were a little bit more like yours...Text 8M: Mrs. Robinson, I’m Dr. Andrews. Your son, Jesse, is going to be all right.W: Oh, thank goodness! What happened to him? I just got a call from the police department to come down here.M: We’re not quite sure. We think the accident was the other driver’s fault. And that caused Jesse’s car to crash into a tree. The damage to Jesse’s car would suggest that. W: Can I go in and see him?M: I’m afraid not right now, Mrs. Robinson. We need to do some tests. I’ll give you an update in a few hours, OK?W: All right. But what are we supposed to do now?M: I’d advise you to get something to eat and be back in three hours, and by that time,I should have more information for you.W: Thank you so much, Dr. Andrews!Text 9W: Excuse me, sir. You look like you’re looking for something. Can I help you find anything? M: Yes. The way things are organized here is really different than usual. Did you guys change some stuff around or something?W: Yes, we made some changes. For example, the area we’re standing in used to be the bakery,and the meat section was on the other side of the store, but we changed those locations about two weeks ago. And now the meat section is in the back of the store.M: No wonder. I come here once a month.W: What do you think the way it looks?M: Well, to be honest, it’s not as easy for me to find the things I need. I like the old way better.W: Well, I’ll keep it in mind and bring it up with my manager. Is there anything I could help you find?M: I really need some items for the bathroom. Where would I find those?W: On goods shelf four. The entire shelf is filled with things for the bathroom.M: Great! I’m also looking for some oranges, but I can see the fruit section just to the left over there. I’ll let you know if I need any more help.Text 10The subway system in San Francisco serves the transportation needs of about five million residents, with 45 stations across a dozen cities and towns in the San Francisco Bay Area. There are a total of four lines that are known by color: yellow, orange, red, and blue. All lines travel through San Francisco, and service runs from 5:00 a.m. to midnight. An interesting fact is that only one third of the stations are below street level; the rest are either at street level or travel high above the freeway. The average speed of the trains is 35 miles per hour, but they can go up to 80 miles an hour. The cost to ride the trains depends on how far you want to go. Many people who live in the suburbs take the train into San Francisco to go to work. This means that the system is very crowded from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and again from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., but outside these times, the subway system is not very busy. This can be great if you want to get a seat, but it also means that there are fewer trains. During rush hour, trains come every 5-10 minutes, but in the middle of the day and late at night, trains come every 20-30 minutes.。
