What kinds of homes will we live the future? Nobody can be sure, architects, and scientists are new ideas now.
Some architects are thinking about whole cities under huge glass domes. Of course, complicated heating and systems will be necessary to control the climate in the domes. , there will never be any rain snow, and the temperature will be always .
Perhaps everyone will live in vertical（立体的） . High rises are so large that they can contain all the necessities of life. Since vertical cities will use land than horizontal cities, and provide homes for more people, they will be for small countries that have populations.
Another idea that will be helpful to countries (and island countries) is
the city. Monaco has already built homes, stores, and offices the water of the Mediterranean Sea. And a Japanese has made a plan for constructing buildings on bridges over Tokyo Bay.
There are some people who think we will go back to living in . But the caves of the future will be quite the caves of the Stone Age. Computers will control light and climate. Farms and parks will be on the land the cave city. When people want to go to the country or to a park, a short ride in will take them there.

解析
试题分析：文章叙述了建筑师对未来家园的几种设想：圆顶的城市，立体的城市，漂浮的城市，山洞城市。
小题1:C考查介词。句意: 在将来我们住在什么样的房子里呢？因为宾语是房子，live居住，是不及物动词，带宾语时需加in，再有就是关键词the future，构成短语：in the future，所以C正确。
小题2:C考查连词。句意:没有人能够确定，但考古学家和科学家正在想出新的想法呢。根据前后两句之间的关系应该是转折关系，but是连词，而however是副词，因为前后是两个句子，应该用连词，所以Ｃ正确。
小题3:A考查动词短语辨析。句意: 但考古学家和科学家正在设计新的想法呢。A. working out 设计出，计算出 B. working at从事 C. working on 从事 D. thinking认为，根据句意应该是设计出，所以A正确。
小题4:D考查动词辨析。句意:一些考古学家正在考虑在巨大玻璃圆顶下建一座城市。A. burying 埋 B. destroying毁坏C. founding成立 D. building建造，根据句意所以D正确。
小题5:A考查词义辨析。句意:当然了，复杂的加热和冷却系统将是必要的。把握关键词and，前后连接并列成分，前面是加热，后面应该是冷却，A. cooling 冷却B. cold 冷的C. living 生活D. social社会的，社交的，所以A正确。
小题6: C考查副词。句意:将不会有雨也不会有雪，根据前后句之间当然是因果关系，A. So 因此（连词）B. However然而 C. Therefore因此（副词）D. Even if（即使），根据空后的逗号，所以是副词，所以C正确。
小题7:A考查连词。句意: 将不会有雨也不会有雪，根据句意是连续否定，所以用or .
小题8:D考查形容词。句意:温度将是总是让人舒服的。根据前句既有圆顶，又有冷却和加热系统，A. pleased 高兴的 B. happy高兴的C. content满意的D. comfortable舒适的，所以D正确
小题9:D考查名词。句意:或许大家都愿意住在立体的城市里。根据后线索：Since vertical cities will use land than horizontal cities,，所以是城市，D正确
小题10:D考查形容词和语境理解。句意:由于立体的城市将比地面上的城市使用更少的土地。根据句意和语境理解，因为是立体的，所以使用的土地更少，所以D正确。
小题11:A考查形容词。句意:由于用地少，为更多的人提供的家园，所以对于人口多的小城市来说更加实用。A. practical实用的B. expensive昂贵的 C. unnecessary不必要的D. useless无用的，所以A正确
小题12:D考查形容词。句意: 对于人口多的小城市来说更加实用。根据固定用法：人口的多少不用many，much，而应该用large和small，所以D正确
小题13:B考查语境理解。句意:对于小的国家和岛国有帮助的另外一个想法就是漂流的城市。根据前线索：they will be for small countries，float意思为"漂浮"，此处为现在分词短语作定语。所以B正确
小题14:C考查语境理解。句意: 对于小的国家和岛国有帮助的另外一个想法就是漂流的城市，根据后线索：and offices the water of the Mediterranean Sea.，所以C正确
小题15:D考查介词。句意:摩纳哥已经在地中海的海面上建了家园，商店和办公室。因为是漂在水面上的，所以用on，所以D正确
小题16:D考查名词和语境理解。句意:一个日本的建筑师做了一个跨越东京湾建房的计划。. A. teacher老师B. sailor 船员C. doctor 医生D. architect建筑师，所以D正确。
小题17:B考查名词。句意:还有人认为我们将回到山洞里居住。go back to doing sth.意思为"重操旧业"。这里是指又重新生活在洞穴里，所以B正确。
小题18:A考查形容词短语。句意未来的山洞和石器时代的山洞很不同。根据后线索Computers will control light and climate，当然是不同了，所以A正确。
小题19:C考查介词。句意:农田和公园将在山洞城市的上面A. under在。。。下面 B. in 在。。。里C. over 在。。。上方 D. far from远离，over是指在洞穴的上方，所以C正确

As I was walking, I saw a bunch of kids running towards him. They knocked all his books out of his arms and tripped(绊倒) him so he landed in the dirt. His glasses went flying, and I saw them land in the glass about ten feet from him. He looked up and I saw this terrible sadness in his eyes. So, I jogged over to him and as he crawled around looking for his glasses, I saw a tear in his eye.
As I handed him his glasses, I said, "Those guys are jerks. They really should go to hell." He looked at me and said, "Hey, thanks!" There was a big smile on his face. It was one of those smiles that showed real thankfulness. I asked him where he lived. As it turned out, he lived near me.
Over the next four years, Kyle and I became best friends. I teased him all the time about being a nerd. He had to prepare a speech for graduation. As he started his speech, he cleared his throat, and began. "Graduation is a time to thank those who helped you make it through those tough years. I am here to tell you a story."
I just looked at my friend with disbelief as he told the story of the first day we met. He had planned to kill himself over the weekend. He talked of how he had cleaned out his locker so his Mom wouldn"t have to do it later and was carrying his stuff home. He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile. "Thankfully, I was saved. My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable."
I heard the gasp(倒吸气) go through the crowd as this handsome, popular boy told us all about his weakest moment. I saw his Mom and Dad looking at me and smiling that same grateful smile. Not until that moment did I realize its depth.

But this doesn’t explain why, for some people, motorcycles are a way to travel, they are a way of life. Everybody knows about the problems of riding a motorcycle. It’s quiet dangerous. It’s very uncomfortable too. However well dressed for a ride the motorcyclist is, wind and rain make the journey difficult and . And then, motorcycles often .
But the motorcyclist doesn’t care!
Take a look at any motorcycle magazine and you will have an idea of what motorcycling means to the enthusiast. The keen motorcyclist may sometimes think about the of his way of life. But he will still go ‘on the ride’ whenever he can!

Early Bird Gets the Deal.
Travel experts say that there are certain times of day when more deals are available. Airfares can change three times a day as airlines adjust their prices to fill up flights. Early morning is when the fares tend to be lowest.
What Wouldn’t a Business Traveler do?
Flying when business travelers don’t can save you big money. Most business travelers fly on Mondays and Fridays, so Tuesday and Wednesday are the best days. Airlines will usually lower their prices on these days to aggressively try and fill empty seats.
Fly to popular places at unpopular times. The slowest time of the year for travel is in the Fall between Labor Day and Thanksgiving. Again, to try and fill more empty seats, the airlines will lower prices and offer better deals to get people to fly during this time of the year.
Package Deals
Many times the best deals on airfare can be found as part of a package rate. Most travel sites have package rates available. Often, the entire package (hotel, airfare, rental car) is cheaper than just the plane ticket on another site. Even if you don’t need the rental car, with the money you’ve saved on the flight, you can afford to take a taxi. These deals are especially good on last minute bookings.
With a little inside knowledge and some good timing, you can get yourself a steal on a ticket to the vacation you thought was out of reach.
小题1:Which would be the best title for the text?
| A．Tips on Vocation Travelling |
| B．Advice for Business Travelers |
| C．The Effect of Economy on Airlines |
| D．Tricks of Finding the Cheapest Flights |
| A．have no saving tricks | B．consider economic reasons |
| C．seldom do research | D．can’t have great deals |
| A．Fly to popular places. |
| B．Don’t Miss the Holydays. |
| C．Better Avoid the Crowds. |
| D．Lose No Chance for Travelling. |
| A．Saving tricks can make the seemingly impossible vacation possible. |
| B．Inside knowledge and good timing help you to steal tickets from airlines. |
| C．Vacation will be out of reach without inside knowledge and good timing. |
| D．Who thinks the vacation is out of reach never grasps the tricks of saving. |
Wethersfield is a typical New England town, a small close community (社区) where almost everyone knows your name. My friends all go to the same high school and my parents are friendly with my friends’ parents. Most of my friends don’t realize what life is like outside this little town. Maybe every so often a few take a day trip to Manhattan or Boston, but none really knows what it’s like to live in an urban environment.
My parents are both from New York City and since they have siblings and friends who still live there, we visit a lot. From an early age I have been exposed to urban life. Jeff, one of my cousins, lives with his mother in a one-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn. He has never had his own room and has always been very much on his own. I don’t think any of my friends could understand how someone could live like that.
When I go to the city I see things I would never see in my hometown. I see poverty and people struggling to make a living. I observe a whole different pace; there, you’re just one guy living with millions of others who will never know your name.
I feel blessed to have experienced the lifestyles of two completely different places. I am grateful for the opportunities I have had. I feel that living in Wethersfield has given me a solid base in forming my character and the ability to deal in a close-knit society. On the other hand, my time spent in New York has exposed me to diverse cultural experiences. I feel that I would be comfortable in any environment and could make the best of any situation.
小题1:According to the author, most of his friends in the town _____.
| A．have never experienced city life |
| B．can only understand the rural life |
| C．prefer the small close community |
| D．know little about the real city life |
| A．schoolmates | B．colleagues | C．relatives | D．parents |
| A．his present character | B．the social ability |
| C．the comfort of city life | D．diverse cultural experiences |
| A．A Small Town and a Big City |
| B．A Man of Two Different Worlds |
| C．Experience Various Environments |
| D．Make the Best of Diverse Cultures |
