using text messages delivered to cell phones.
Text messages have exploded in popularity in recent years, particularly among young people. The
wireless industry"s trade association, CTIA, estimates (估计) more than 48 billions text messages are sent
each month.
The plan comes from the Warning Alter and Response Network Act, a 2006 federal law that requires
improvement to the nation"s emergency alter system. The act tasked the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) with coming up with new ways to alter the public about emergencies.
"The ability to deliver accurate and timely warning and alters through cell phone and other mobile services
is an important next step in our efforts to help ensure that the American public has the information they need
to take action to protect themselves and their families before, and during, disasters and other emergencies,"
FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said following approval of the plan.
Participation in the alter system by carriers-telecommunication companies-is voluntary, but it has received
solid support from the wireless industry.
The program would be optional for cell phone users. They also may not be charged for receiving alters.
There would be three types of messages, according to the rules.
The first would be a national alter from the president, likely involving a terrorists attack or natural disaster.
The second would involve "approaching threats," which could include natural disasters like hurricanes or
storms or even university shootings. The third would be reserved for child abduction (绑架) emergencies,
or so-called Amber Alerts.
The service could be in place by 2010.
B. To popularize the use of cell phone.
C. To estimate the monthly number of messages.
D. To promote the wireless industry.
B. the Warning Alert and Response Network
C. FCC
D. federal regulators
B. mobile phone users
C. the carriers themselves
D. the law of the United States
B. They may enjoy the alert service for free.
C. They must send the alerts to others.
D. They may choose the types of messages.
B. a university shooting happens
C. a natural disaster happens
D. a terrorist attack occurs
B. Cell Phone Alerts by Wireless Industry
C. Cell Phone Alerts of National Disasters
D. Cell Phone Alerts Coming Soon

seeing some new kinds of addictions. Some people are compulsive (难以自制的) shoppers. Others find it
impossible to pull themselves away from their work. Still others spend countless hours watching TV or
playing computer games.
(2) Over the years, shopping has become a very common activity. Many people enjoy going to stores
more and more every day, but it"s more than a common hobby for some of them. They have turned into
shopaholics. They are people who simply enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without
being able to stop doing. They are booked on shopping and usually buy things that they don"t need. Even
though they don"t have enough money, they buy everything they want.
(3) The question is, why do they have this addiction? There isn"t a specific answer. Some people go
shopping when they are sad, worried, upset or lonely and they want to feel better. They use this activity
as a way to forget their problems. Shopaholics say they feel more important and better after they buy
something. They also tend to have this addition when they feel guilty.
(4) Shopaholism seems to be harmless addiction, but it can _____. Some of them can be psychological.
If this is the case, people addicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them break this habit.
However, the process, like for most addictions, is long, and they suffer a lot. It can also cause financial
problems. They just think about satisfying their feelings, so they spend money they don"t have. They get
deep in debt, and they can even go bankrupt and get sent to prison.

research.
A getaway of a week or more is no longer considered essential by many families and is often beyond their
reach, said the analysis of what parents and children say they really need. Fashionable clothes for the children,
expensive birthday parties and lots of toys are also on the list of luxuries families don"t have to have. Instead,
recession-hit parents are thinking of the future, and the things they want for their children centre around
learning to behave properly, good education and good health.
Their picture of what a family ought to have includes a space to eat together away from the television,
plenty of fruit and vegetables, and bicycles so children can get exercise.
The breakdown of necessities and luxuries was prepared by researchers from the Department for Work
and Pensions (DWP) who were trying to establish an up-to-date picture of what parents say they really need.
Their findings show how families have scaled down their expectations in the face of economic difficulties-
how parents are now concentrating their attention and money firmly on the long-term interests of their children.
Many believe that while it is vital for a family to do things together, day trips or weekend breaks are enough.
Spending on furniture or decorating the house was also considered luxurious, unless the state of the home
was so bad it became difficult to invite visitors in.
Instead, researchers said: A family home should have an area where the family can eat together, not on
their laps in front of a television. Families should be able to go on outings, overnight trips and possibly short
holiday: the fact of being able to share these experiences is more important than the precise activity and its
cost.
B. children hardly ever need fashionable clothes and lots of toys
C. what a family should have is basic things that they must have
D. annual holidays were once considered necessary and vital
B. day trips or weekend breaks are enough for families to share experiences
C. their expectations should be increased in the face of economic difficulties
D. a week"s holiday is an essential minimum during the financial crisis
B. They learn it is insignificant for a family to do things with each other regularly.
C. They want to know what parents really need in the face of economic difficulties.
D. They found spending on furniture or decorating the house was thought valuable.
B. a family needs at least a week away on holiday each year
C. a family home should have a comfortable area to watch TV
D. going on outings and overnight trips is wasting time for families
B. Family holidays once a year have become a luxury.
C. It is vital for parents to eat together with children.
D. Parents are concerned with children’s future.
The cars are sitting in petrol stations while drivers pay for their fuel. The Automobile Association(A.A) has
discovered that cars are left unattended for an average three minutes and sometimes longer as drivers buy
drinks, sweets, cigarettes and other consumer items.With payment of credit cards becoming more and more
common, it is not unusual for a driver to be out of his car for as long as six minutes, providing the car theft
with a golden opportunity.
For more than ten years there has been a big rise in car crime than in most other types of crime. An average
of more than two cars a minute are broken into or stolen in the UK. Car crime accounts for almost a third of
all reported offenses with no signs that the trend is slowing down.
Although there are highly professional criminal involved in car theft, almost 90 percent of car theft is
committed by the opportunists. Amateur thieves are aided by our own carelessness. The A.A. recommends
locking up whenever you leave the car and for however short a period. A partially open sunroof or window is
a further come-on (诱惑) to thieves.
There are many other traps to avoid. The A.A. has fond little awareness among drivers about safe parking.
Most motorists questioned made no efforts to avoid parking in quiet spots-just the places thieves love. The A.A.
advises drives to park in places with people around because thieves don"t like audiences.
B. about 20% of all reported crimes involve cars
C. car crime is decreasing gradually
D. the A. A. didn"t pay much attention to car crimes
B. people who always steal or break into cars
C. highly skillful criminals
D. careless criminals who tend to fail in their crimes
B. keep the sunroof and windows open
C. avoid parking in crowded places
D. keep some people around to watch their cars
B. the opportunities for non-professional car thieves
C. the anti-theft tips
D. when to lock the car
newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news
from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading
a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.
The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives-the
big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the
same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It"s already happening in areas
that may directly affect our lives, like genetic (基因) engineering. In the future, I think there will be
more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do-as we develop a better understanding
of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.
It"s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted (传送) electronically from
Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I"m pretty sure that how it will happen in the future.
You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the
things you want to read- sports and international news, etc.
I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media (媒体).
They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers,
but that hasn"t happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound
lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it"s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.
B. The Changes of Media
C. Make Your Own Newspaper
D. The Future of Newspaper
B. newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer
C. newspapers will cover more scientific research
D. more and more people will watch TV
B. A menu of important news.
C. The most important news.
D. What you are interested in.
B. newspapers will stay with us together with other media
C. television will take the place of newspaper
D. the writer believe some media will die out
values-this can not be repeated too often-aren"t necessarily our values. Physical comfort, cleanness and
order are not necessarily the most important things. The social services from time to time find themselves
faced with a room with rotten food covered by small worms, and an old person lying alone on bed, taking
no notice of the worms. But is it interrupting personal freedom to insist that they go to live with some of
their relatives so that they might be taken better care of? Some social workers, the ones who clear up the
worms, think we"re in danger of carrying this idea of personal freedom to the point where serious risks (冒
险) are being taken with the health and safety of the old.
Indeed, the old can be easily hurt or harmed. The old is like a car: it needs more mechanical repair as it
gets older. You can carry this comparison right through to provision of spare parts. But never forget that
such operations are painful experiences, however good the results are. And at what point should you stop
to treat the old body? Is it morally right to try to push off death by continuing the development of medicine
to excite the forgetful old mind and to make the old body active, knowing that it is designed to die? You
cannot ask doctors or scientists to decide, because so long as they can see the technical chances, they will
feel it necessary to give them a try, by the rule that while there"s life, there"s hope.
Talking to the old, however, you"re forced to the conclusion that whether age is happy or unpleasant
depends less on money or health than it does on your ability to have fun.
B. old people enjoy living alone so as to have more personal freedom
C. every old people enjoy living with their relatives
D. social services have nothing to do with very old people
B. one should not take risk dealing with old people
C. health and safety are more important than personal freedom
D. personal freedom is more important than health and safety
B. the conclusion you have come to
C. whether age is happy or unpleasant
D. you talk to the old people
B. the opinion that we should try every means possible to save old people is uncertain
C. old people can enjoy a happy life only if they are very rich
D. medical decisions for old people should be left to the doctors
