Driving a car
Do not use your phone while you are driving ! You could concentrate on your conversation and forget to look where you are going, or you could take your eyes off the road to look at the phone’s display or to press in a number. Either way, you could cause a terrible accident.
In a restaurant
There is probably nothing more annoying than a diner receiving or making a call near you when you are in a restaurant. The icy glares you receive should be warning enough that it is not appreciated. Turn you phone off and enough that it is not appreciated. Turn you phone off and use your message service to return calls after you leave.
At the cinema
Do not give way to the desire to call a friend if the film is boring, or if you want to find out what happens. You could become the target of all the angry cinema customers.
At the theatre
There is no more icy glare than that of a theatre goer who has paid a lot of money to see a show and hears your phone playing a tone. It goes without saying that you will be seen as a socially unacceptable person in this situation.
In hospitals
This is probably the most important place to make sure your phone is switched off. Your phone can disturb life-saving electronic equipment in hospitals, so it is necessary that your phone is switched off before you enter.
On planes
Your phone might disturb navigational equipment and cause a horrible accident so you should switch it off before boarding a plane.
小题1:According to the passage, the most annoying thing in a restaurant is that __________.
A.you receive icy glares |
B.a nearby diner is answering a phone call |
C.you have to use the message service |
D.you can not return calls until after you leave |
A.Theatre goers will not give you icy glares when they hear your phone. |
B.When switched on in hospitals, mobile phones could endanger patients’ lives. |
C.Passengers should switch off the phones before getting on a plane. |
D.Pressing in phone numbers when driving could lead to traffic accidents. |
A.different functions of mobile phones |
B.the overuse of mobile phones on some occasions |
C.some areas where message service is forbidden |
D.the proper use of mobile phones in some public places |
A.make something stronger | B.carry on |
C.pay particular attention | D.think something clearly |
答案
小题1:B
小题2:A
小题3:D
小题4:C
解析
小题1:本题考查理解文章细节的能力。从In a restaurant 中的“There is probably nothing more annoying than a diner receiving or making a call near you when you are in a restaurant.”可知最佳答案为B项。
小题2:本题考查根据文章相关信息进行正误判断的能力。从At the theatre中的“There is no more icy glare than that of a theatre goer who has paid a lot of money to see a show and hears your phone playing a tone.”可知A项表述与此不相符, 故A项符合题干要求。从In hospitals 中的“Your phone can disturb life-saving electronic equipment in hospitals, so it is necessary that your phone is switched off before you enter. ”可知B项表述正确;从 On planes 中的“…so you should switch it off before boarding a plane. ”可知C项表述正确;从 Driving a car 中的“…or you could take your eyes off the road to look at the phone’s display or to press in a number. Either way, you could cause a terrible accident. ”可知C项表述正确;
小题3:本题考查归纳主旨大意的能力。第一段中的句子“However, because of the quick acceptance and extensive usage of mobiles in our lives, we have missed out on an important step, namely, the appropriate (恰当的)use.” 指出本文的主旨,然后再分别介绍在不同场合使用手机的礼仪。其他选项都是文章的细节而不是主题。
小题4:本题考查根据文中细节猜测短语含义的能力。根据“concentrate on” 后面句子的意思:忘记看看你正往何处去,或者您可能把目光移开看手机或按键盘,由此可以推测的意思为“集中精力于;专心于”。故C项为最佳答案。

Methane gas forms when organic matter breaks down and is drawn off from large rubbish tips by pipes sunk into the middle of the waste. Until now this process wasn’t possible on small sites because the pipe allowed oxygen to seep in and that stop the breakdown process.
Viktor Popov of the Wessex Institute of Technology has now developed a system to modify existing landfill sites by making them airtight while the methane is extracted from sunken wells. The site is covered by a special three-layered skin whose two outer layers are made of clay with a pressurized(加压的)layer of carbon dioxide gas in the middle. As the methane is sucked out through a central well it is replaced by carbon dioxide from the middle layer rather than oxygen, allowing the breakdown process to continue.
Unfortunately there are no plans to use the power of methane even though Popov claims his invention could provide a valuable source of energy over the next 20 years.
小题1:The passage mainly introduces ______ to us.
A.how to make methane | B.a new way to make use of rubbish |
C.the valuable things in rubbish | D.the amount of rubbish beig reused |
A.in Europe 94 billion cubic meters of methane is produced every year |
B.some of the waste will explode if it is not burnt off |
C.99% of the rubbish has been burnt off in Europe |
D.only a very small part of this kind of energy is used in Europe |
A.methane gas | B.the long pipe | C.oxygen | D.the rubbish |
A.Oxygen can cause the breakdown process to stop. |
B.When the methane is sucked out, oxygen will enter from the middle layer. |
C.Carbon dioxide doesn’t affect the breakdown process. |
D.The new invention has not been put into use. |
However, you will find college life is different from your previous school environment. Many of us can be easily overwhelmed by the details of running a well-balanced life. While some of us may have the know-how, I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of others who have walked the college halls before you.
The following you may find of use about life on campus:
·Plan well. There are so many new things to do at a new college or university. Give yourself time to make new friends and became familiar with the campus, but don’t forget why you are there. Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely.
·If you don’t have a “system” for planning your time now (like a day timer a computer data book). get one. Most of all, don’t depend on your memory.
·Don’t miss the guidelines. The restrictions, rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student’s handbook. Consider them well-balanced food for thought. What dates are important? What pieces of paper need to be handed in? What can / can’t you do in your student residence(住处)? Who has the right for what? What do you need to complete to graduate?
·Write the word “STUDY” on the walls of our bedroom and bathroom, and maybe it will help to to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone, TV and the kitchen table. Consider this — you are paying thousands of dollars for your course. You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course.
·Build your identity. This is the time for you to decide what to do and what not to do. Take as much time as you need to explore new ideas. Do not be afraid of the beyond. This is learning to make good choices.
小题1:What is the main purpose of the passage?

A.Because you will have more freedom at college. |
B.Because you will no longer be afraid of the beyond |
C.Because you prepare for your future career and life there. |
D.Because professors there will provide you with many new ideas. |
A.An understanding of how things are going at college |
B.Practical knowledge about how to behave and what to do at college |
C.College halls where rules and regulations are presented |
D.An environment completely different from the one you’re used to |
A.needn’t learn from those who went to college before them |
B.spend as much time as possible on social activities |

D.are supposed to repeat or replace at least one course |
In my family, it was always important to place blame when anything had happened.
“Who did this?” my mother would scream about a dirty kitchen.
“This is your entire fault, Katherine,” my father would insist when the cat got out or the dishwasher broke.
From the time we were little, my sister, brothers and I told to each other. We set a place for blame at the dinner table.
But the Whites didn’t worry about who had done what. They picked up the pieces and moved on with their lives. The beauty of this was driven home to me the summer Jane died.
In July, the Whites sisters and I decided to take a car trip from their home in Florida to New York. The two older sisters, Sarah and Jane, were college students, and the youngest, Amy, had recently turned sixteen. Proud of having a new drivers license, Amy was excited about practicing her driving on the trip. She showed off her license to everyone she met.
The big sisters shared the driving of Sarah’s new car during the first part of the trip, but when they reached less crowded areas, they let Amy take over. Somewhere in South Carolina, we pulled off the highway to eat. After lunch, Amy got behind the wheel. She came to a crossroads with a stop sign. Whether she was nervous or just didn’t see the sign no one would ever know, but Amy continued into the crossroads without stopping. The driver of a large truck, unable to stop in time, ran into our car.
Jane was killed immediately.
I was slightly injured. The most difficult thing that I had ever done was to call the Whites to tell them about the accident and that Jane had died. Painful as it was for me to lose a good friend, I knew that it was far worse for them to lose a child.
When Mr. and Mrs. White arrived at the hospital, they found their two daughters sharing a room. Sarah had a few cuts on the head; Amy’s leg was broken. They hugged us all and cried tears of sadness and of joy at seeing their daughters. They wiped away the girl’s tears and made a few jokes at Amy as she learned to use her crutches(拐杖).
To both of their daughters, and especially to Amy, over and over they simply said, “We are so glad that you are alive.”
I was astonished. No blame. No accusations.
Later, I asked the Whites why they never talked about the fact that Amy was driving and had run a stop sign.
Mrs. White said, “Jane is gone, and we miss her terribly. Nothing we say or do will bring her back. But Amy has her whole life ahead of her. How can she lead a full and happy life if she feels we blame her for her sister’s death?”
They were right. Amy graduated from the University of California and got married several years ago. She works as a teacher of learning-disabled students. She’s also a mother of two little girls of her own, the oldest named Jane.
小题1: How did the author’s parents differ from the Whites?
A.The author’s parents were less caring. | B.The author’s parents were less loving. |
C.The author’s parents were less friendly | D.The author’s parents were less understanding |
A.Amy didn’t stop at a crossroad and a truck hit their car. |
B.Amy didn’t know what to do when she saw the stop sign. |
C.Amy didn’t slow down so their car ran into a truck. |
D.Amy didn’t get off the highway at a crossroad. |
A.Florida | B.California | C.South Carolina | D.New York |
A.they didn’t want Amy to feel ashamed and sorry for the rest of her life |
B.Amy was badly injured herself and they didn’t want to add to her pain |
C.They didn’t want to blame their children in front of others |
D.Amy was their youngest daughter and they loved her best |
A.Amy has never recovered from the shock | B.Amy changed her job after the accident |
C.Amy lost her memory after the accident | D.Amy has lived quite a normal life |
Green building means “reducing the impact(影响)of the building on the land”, Taryn Holowka of the US Green Building Council in Washington.D.C. said. According to Holowka, buildings account for 65 percent of total US electricity use.
But green buildings can reduce energy and water use. Also, the buildings are often located near public transportation such as buses and subways, so that people can drive their cars less. That could be good for the environment, because cars use lots of gas and give off pollution. Green buildings are often built on developed land, so that the buildings don’t destroy forests.
Marty Dettling is project manager for a building that put these ideas into action. The Solaire has been called the country’s first green high-rise building. According to Dettling, “We’ve reduced our energy use by one-third and our water by 50 percent.”
The Solaire cuts energy in part by using solar power. “On the surface of the building we have solar panels(电池板)which change the sun’s energy into electricity,” Dettling explained.
The Solaire also has lights that automatically turn off when people leave the room. In addition, the building has lots of windows, allowing people to use the sun for light during the day. The Solaire cuts water by reusing it.
Not everyone is eager to move into a green building, however. Some people think that things like solar panels cost more money than more traditional energy source. Anyhow, Holowka said, “It is going to take off.”
小题1: “A green building”most refers to a____________ building according to the passage.
A.not ripe or modern | B.covering green color |
C.environmentally friendly | D.fresh or new |
A.they can reduce energy and water use in many ways |
B.they are often built on an area of land which has already been used for buildings. |
C.people can collect energy from sunsight to heat water and produce electricity |
D.they are equipped with lots of modern but cheaper equipment |
A.the places will cause a lot of trouble and inconvenience to consruction work |
B.cars will give off more pollution and more forests will be destroyed |
C.the environment of the places is not better than that of big cities |
D.the places are poorly equipped and unfriendly. |
A.will become successful and popular very quickly |
B.will be begining to disappear |
C.will be more modern. |
D.will replace traditional buildings. |
A.Dettling designed the first green building in the US. |
B.Energy shortage calls for buildings of new design |
C.The Solaire serves as a model of high buildings. |
D.Green buildings help save environment. |
Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you’ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we’re the apple of our parents’ eyes, and that our Grandmas think we’re great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics. but sometimes it’s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge. it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.
Self-image is your own mind’s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about US. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.
The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don’t allow doubts to occur in it.
It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can’t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you’re silly because you aren’t good at math, find a tutor. If you think you’re weak because you can’t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you’re dull because you don’t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesn’t mean it’s true.
The best way to get rid of a negative serf-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat(拍) yourself on the back, you’ll know you’re well on your way. Good luck!
小题1:You need to build a positive self-image when you _________.
A.dare to challenge yourself | B.feel it hard to change yourself |
C.are unconfident about yourself | D.have a high opinion of yourself |
A.have positive effects | B.are probably untrue |
C.are often changeable | D.have different functions |
A.To keep a different image of others. | B.To make your life successful. |
C.To understand your own world. | D.To change the way you think. |
A.How to prepare for your success. | B.How to face challenges in your life. |
C.How to build a positive self-image. | D.How to develop your good qualities. |
A.Parents. | B.Adolescents. | C.Educators. | D.People in general. |
