阅读理解。     In 1901,H. G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the
explorers landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They
expressed their surprise to the "moon people" they met. In turn, the "moon people" expressed their
surprise. "Why," they asked, "are you traveling to outer space when you don"t even use your inner
space?"
     H.G. Wells could only imagine travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the
moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question
that the "moon people" asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously
thinking about it.
     Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities,
such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The "Channel",a
tunnel connecting England and France, is now complete.
     But what about underground cities? Japan"s Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground
systems, called "Alice Cities". The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using
underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome would cover the whole city.
     Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way
to use the earth"s space. The space, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H.G. Wells "moon people" would agree. Would you?1. The explorers in H.G. Well"s story were surprised to find that the "moon people"       .A. knew so much about the earth
B. understood their language
C. lived in so many underground cities
D. were ahead of them in space technology2. What sorts of underground system are already here with us?A. Offices, shopping areas, power stations
B. Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas
C. Gardens, car parks, power stations
D. Tunnels, gardens, offices3. What would be the best title for the text?A. Alice Cities-cities of the future
B. Space travel with H.G. Wells
C. Enjoy living underground
D. Building down, not up

阅读理解。     Online shopping can help one buy a book, a T-shirt, or a cell phone. Now, even cars
can be purchased on the Internet with just a few clicks of a mouse.
     China"s privately owned Zhejiang Geely Holding Group Co, which acquired the
Swedish carmaker Volvo Car Corporation from Ford Motor Company earlier this year,
on Monday launched (推出)its official store on Taobao Mall. The venture, on China"s
largest business-to-customer shopping site by market share, means Geely is the first
automaker to sell cars on Taobao.
     The company will begin offering two of its Panda models on the website from Dec
22, initially (最初)through a group-buying system. "We will add more cars to the Geely
store in the future, and also sell special editions(版本)which are only available on the
Internet," said Liu Jinliang, vice-president of Geely, adding that the special editions will
help differentiate(区分)the products sold in 4S (sales, service, spare parts and survey)
stores and those on the company"s online store.
     Customers can search for information, place orders, and pay their deposit(保证金)
through the company"s online store, and then test-drive, obtain their cars, and pay the
remainder of the purchase price at traditional 4S stores. Liu said the company will provide
door-to-door delivery (交货), an installment payment(分期付款)plan, and pay-in-full
services in the future, as it aims to improve the overall quality of online shopping.
     Selling cars online is seen not only as a means of attracting attention, but also as a way
of cutting costs. "By setting up an online store, we can save costs originally incurred (引起)
for land, infrastructure (基础设施), and human resources," said Yang Xueliang, public
relations director of Geely, adding that the company may consider lowering the number
of its physical stores(实体店)if the online venture is successful. "The costs saved, in turn,
will lead to discounts for customers," Yang added.
     Though online stores will not replace the functions of 4S stores, they are a phenomenon
many automakers may adopt in the future, said analysts.
     "It (setting up an online store) helps automakers to explore new ways of selling, though
it is far from a large-scale practice," said Jia Xinguang, a senior auto industry analyst. 1. The purpose of the passage is to tell us _______________________.             .A. Online auto stores will replace the functions of 4S stores.
B. Geely is the first automaker to sell cars on Taobao.
C. Now cars can be purchased on the Internet.
D. Selling cars online is a means of attracting attention.2. According to Liu Jinliang, _______________________.             .A. the cars sold online will be cheaper
B. more cars have been added to the Geely store
C. the cars sold in 4S stores and those on the company"s online store are just the same
D. there"ll be special car editions which are only available on the Internet3. It can be implied from the passage that _____________________.A. the company offers two of its Panda models on the website
B. the company will provide door-to-door delivery service
C. customers must pay all the money through the online store
D. selling cars online can save money for customers4. What"s the analysts" attitudes towards online auto stores?A. It will never replace the functions of 4S stores.
B. It"s a new way of selling cars.
C. More automakers may adopt it in the future.
D. It is a large-scale practice.

任务型读写。     Real policemen hardly recognize any similarity between their lives and what they see on TV.
     The first difference is that a policeman"s real life revolved round (围绕；以…为目的) criminal law.
He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court.
He has to know nearly as much law as a professional lawyer, and what is more, he has to apply it on his
feet, in the dark and rain, running down a street after someone he wants to talk to.
     Little of his time is spent in chatting. He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on
thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty of stupid crimes.
     Most television crime drama is about finding the criminal: as soon as he"s arrested, the story is over. In
real life, finding criminal is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and
terrorist attacks, little effort is spent on searching.
     Having made an arrest, a detective (侦探) really starts to work. He has to prove his case in court and
to do that he often has to gather a lot of different evidence.
     A third big difference between the drama detective and the real one is the unpleasant pressures: first,
as members of a police force, they always have to behave absolutely in accordance with (依照) the law.
Secondly, as expensive public servants, they have to get results. They can hardly ever do both. Most of
the time some of them have to break the rules in small ways.
     If the detective has to deceive (欺骗) the world, the world often deceives him. Hardly anyone he
meets tells him the truth. And this separation the detective feels between himself and the rest of the world
is deepened by the simple-minded - as he see it - of citizens, social workers, doctors, law-makers, and
judges, who, instead of eliminating(消除) crime, punish the criminals less severely in the hope that this
will make them reform. The result, detective feel, is that nine-tenths of their work is re-catching people
who should have stayed behind bars. This makes them rather cynical (愤世嫉俗的).

Why are so many people so afraid of failure? Quite simply, because no one tells us how to fail so that failure becomes an experience that will lead to growth. We forget that failure is part of the human condition and that every person had the right to fail. Most parents work hard at preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards. A mother describes her child"s hastily made table as "perfect" even though it doesn"t stand still. Another way is to shift blame. If John fails science, his teacher is unfair or stupid. The trouble with failure-prevention devices is that they leave a child unequipped for life in the real world. The young need to learn that no one can be best at everything. No one can win all the time and that it"s possible to enjoy a game even when you don"t win. A child who"s not invited to a birthday party, who doesn"t make the honor list on the baseball team, feels terrible, of course, but parents should not offer a quick consolation prize(安慰奖) or say, "It doesn"t matter." Because it does. The young should be allowed to experience disappointment and be helped to master it. Failure is never pleasurable. It hurts grown-ups and children alike. But it can make a positive contribution to your life once you learn to use it. Step one is to ask "why did I fail?" Don"t blame someone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong, how you can improve. If someone else can help, don"t be shy about inquiring. Success, which encourages repetition of old behavior, is not nearly as good a teacher as failure. You can learn from a bad party how to give a second one, from an ill-chosen first house what to look for in a second. Even a failure that seems definitive can prompt(激起) fresh thinking, a change of direction. After 12 years of studying ballet a friend of mine auditioned(面试) for a professional company. She was turned down. "would further training help?" she asked. The ballet master shook his head. "You will never be a dancer," he said, "you haven"t the body for it." In such cases, the way to use failure is to take stock(鉴定) bravely and ask, "What have I left? What else can I do?"My friend put away her shoes and moved into dance treatment center, a field where she"s both able and useful. Failure frees one to take risks because there"s less to lose. Often there is recovery of energy-a way to find new possibilities.
1. The first paragraph tells us _______.
A. the reason why so many people are afraid of failure B. the reason why we don"t know how to fail C. failure is very natural for every person D. one should be ready to face failure at any time
2. The second paragraph tells us___________.
A. how a mother praised her children B. two ways of failure prevention most parents use when their children fail C. how to shift blame D. parents should blame their children at the proper time
3. According to the author, what should a child know in the real world?
A. Ways to avoid failure. B. No one can be best all the time at everything. C. No parents should offer quick consolation. D. He can get pleasure from failure as well as success.
4. What can make a positive contribution to one"s life once he learns to use it?
A. Success B. Disappointment C. Failure D. Value.
