  Booking Online and Saving the Environment

  When you are looking to book a holiday, it is unlikely that you will think about how green your booking decision is, but it is something that you should think about. By“green”we mean the impact on the environment.

  When looking to book a holiday, you will probably find that you are faced with two main decisions. The first is to go into a travel agency, pick up brochures(宣传册)read through them and go back with just one and book with the travel agents directly or over the phone. The second is to go onto the Internet

  The Internet holds many advantages over the travel agencies. The main one is convenience. You can go online to look at holidays at any time of the day. The travel agents, however, are usually very busy at times when people can actually go, i.e. lunch hours or at the weekend. You could use the telephone, but you wouldn’t be able to see the pictures or the details of the holidays, so you would probably be sent a brochure anyway.

  There are websites on the Internet that make shopping for holiday deals much easier. These websites are known as[A1] price comparison websites. They search through lots of different tour operators[A2] , and the results are displayed on one page, from which you can choose.

  Compared with the travel agencies, booking online is greener. The piles of brochures are definitely not green, and the amount of unnecessary paper used can’t be good for the environment. In the days of the Internet, there is really no need for such a large amount of paper to be wasted. So booking online will not only save you time and effort, it will do a little bit towards saving the environment, too!

  1. When planning holidays, few people will think about being green.

  A. True B. False C. Not Given

  2. There are two main choices when people look to book their holidays.

  A. True B. False C. Not Given

  8.Travel agencies make the best use of price comparison websites.

  A. True B. False C. Not Given

  9. Travelers collect brochures as a hobby.

  A. True B. False C. Not Given

  10. Booking online is a way to save the environment.

  7、B, There are lots of 而不是 limited choices at price comparison website,所以 错误。

  8、 C, Travel agencies make the best use of price comparison website.文中并未提 及两者的关系,所以未提及。

  9、 C, Travelers collect brochures as a hobby.文中并未提及。

  10、A, Booking online is a way to save the environment。正确,与本文标题和主题相呼应,所以正确。

  Urban Gardening

  Urban gardening refers to the practice of planting a garden in the city. Apartments, town homes,and other areas with Iittle or no land are being used for gardening. This method of gardening is becoming more common as the amount of land for gardening. in cities is becoming smaller and smaller.

  Containers,hanging baskets and raised beds are examples of items people use to create a garden in a confined space. Some cities also offer a shared community garden for people who have no room to grow plants at home.

  Many types of plants can be grown in containers and baskets. Tomatoes and peppers, for instance,can grow in containers on windowsills(窗台). Plants grown on a windowsill should usually receive at least six to eight hours of sunlight daily. Herbs are often grown in containers or baskets in the kitchen. They do not require much space and can be handy for cooking.

  People who want to grow more plants may use raised beds which are usually made of wood pieces and filled with a mixture of soil and fertilizers. They can be built on top of any hard surface,including roof tops. People like them because the beds often cost much less than most other methods of gardening.

  Community gardening could be an option for anyone who does not have space for a garden at home. Most cities that offer this will rent a small plot of land to someone for a fee, or allow them to use it free of charge. Instead of dividing the land into separate plots, some cities allow everyone in the neighborhood to share and work on the same land. This method could be beneficial for people in the neighborhood who share the passion for growing things.

  Lack of Sleep Is Dangerous

  Do you know that if you miss out too much sleep you will die? Its true! If you stay awake for a long, long time, your brain and body will break down.

  The unofficial world record for staying awake is 11 days, and its held by Randy Gardner. 26 E He also had help from TV and radio reporters, a sleep researcher and a doctor.

  What happened? 27 F Then his brain started to lose sense. On day 4, he thought a street sign was really a person. On day 6, he began to speak very slowly. On day 9, he couldn’t finish sentences. On ty 10, Randy thought he saw a forest in the next room. 28 A Eventually, after he’d broken the world record, Randy was told to go to sleep. Experiments that keep people awake for dangerously long periods are always stopped before the patients break down .

  Rats, however, aren’t so well cared for. 29 DThats sooner than if theyd been allowed to sleep but were given no food. They get really thin. But that’s not because they stop eating—quite the opposite[A9] . Even though these rats are eating food, their bodies cant process it in the normal way. On top of that[A10] , their little bodies lose more heat than normal, which makes them weak. This means that they need more food to stay at a healthy temperature. 30 C

  And thats what lack of sleep does for you.

  A. In fact, he went a bit crazy.

  B. Normally rats wouldnt catch a cold

  C. Towards the end, the health of these rats is failing.

  D. When kept from sleeping, they die within three weeks.

  E. Randy asked two of his friends to stop him falling asleep.

  F. First of all staying awake long made Randy bad-tempered.

  Those Who Ride on Two Wheels

  In the United States there are six million tennis players and twelve million gofers.

  These figures would not surprise most people. But many would be surprised to learn that twenty million Americans ride motorcycles (摩托车) Few people realize that motorcycling is fast becoming one of Americas most popular sports.

  According to the Cycle News, many kinds of people enjoy motorcycling. They include black people and white people, businessmen, professionals, and blue- collar workers, Among them, about 55% are businessmen, 3% are in the professions and 9% in government service.

  Such information is offered by the Cycle News in the hope of improving the general; publics impression of the sport. The public has tended to believe that all motorcyclists are wild and lawless young men.

  There are several things about motorcycling that the average citizen dislikes. A motorcyclists appearance has something to do with this dislike. Motorcyclists often look dirty; in fact, they are dirty. On the road, there is little to protect them from mud.

  For practical reasons, they often dress in old clothing which looks much less respectable than the clothing of people who ride in cars. For the same reason, motorcyclists usually wear dark colors. Perhaps this helps to explain why they are sometimes suspected of having bad natures.

  Probably motorcycles themselves also produce anger and fear. They are noisy, though some trucks are even noisier. But trucks are acceptable because they perform a needed service. Motorcycles, on the other hand, make an uncomfortable noise just to give their riders pleasure. Roaring along quiet streets they wake sleeping families and make babies cry.

  Yet, as motorcycling becomes more and more common, it will be interesting to see how people in general feel about the sport, Perhaps it will someday become as“respectable" as tennis or golf.

  11.According to the text,more and more Americans like__.

  A.playing tennis B.playing golf C.motorcycling D.car-racing

  12. According to the Cycle News, over half of the motorcyclists are__.

  30__ For too long, people have destroyed natural resources, using up those resources that cannot be easily replaced. On the earth, we are lucky to have many resources that are renewable, such as sun, wind, water, and trees. As more and more focus is placed on the use of renewable resources, it will become easier to protect our planet from further harm.

  A. It is easy to find new resources in nature.

  B. Renewable resources are those that can be replaced easily.

  C. While you may not think of oceans as natural resources, they are.

  D. For example, regions with rich soil can support farming societies.

  A Priceless Lesson in Humility(谦卑)

  A few years ago,I took a sightseeing trip to Washington,D.C.Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Center,I heard a voice say,“Can you help me?”I turned around and saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended.Without thinking,I reached into my pocket, pulled out all of my loose change and placed it in her hand.

  But the blind woman smiled and said,“I dont want your money.I just need help finding the post office.”In a moment,I realized what I had done.I had acted out of prejudice (偏见).

  I hated what I saw in myself.This incident reawakened (唤起)my basic belief.I believed in humility,even though I had failed to do so for a moment.

  The thing I had forgotten about myself was that I am an immigrant.I came to the U.S.at the age of 15.Over the years,I had been a dishwasher,cashier and mechanic,and eventually I became a network engineer.

  In my own life,I have experienced many open acts of prejudice.I remember a time, when I was a waiter,I heard a father tell his little boy that,if he did not do well in school,he would end up like me.So I know what it is like.

  But now,living in my American middle-class lifestyle,I find it all too easy to forget my past,to forget who I am and where I have been.That blind woman cured me of my “blindness.”She reminded me of my belief in humility and to always keep my eyes and heart open.

  Girls and Science

  ① As economy goes global,math and science are bigger than ever.These fields are where girls have been traditionally under-represented.The more represented the girls are in science and math,the greater opportunities they have.Making your daughter interested in science may sound challenging.However,it could be very simple.

  ② The first thing to do is to keep high expectations for your daughter.Children have a natural sense of curiosity(好奇心).They are born explorers.So you need to encourage your daughter to take note of her surroundings,and to consider things such as how bridges are built and what makes plants grow.

  ③ Another thing that needs to be done is to find a good teacher.A positive role model will inspire your daughter.So you need to introduce her to a family friend or community member who can show her around a chemical lab or architecture(建筑)firm.

  ④ You should also involve your daughter in activities with other children.She can design a birthday party with a scientific theme.She can go to a science museum with her friends.She can work on a construction project with her classmates.In this way your daughter will always have fun.

  6 Science talents are likely to give your daughter help in the job market.And the importance of scientific search goes far deeper than that.While exploring the scientific world,your daughter is engaging her creative and problem-solving abilities.This may give her valuable experience to study everything in the world.

  Famous Brands

  Why do we always buy certain shoes or clothes that have a famous brand? why do we have to copy other people? The people we often admire the most are those who have their own styles. They don’t want to copy someone elses.

  Big companies give free products to famous people such as sportsmen and movie stars. They intend to get people like you to buy their products. When you spend a lot of money on an expensive pair of shoes, they may not suit you. You might enjoy more if you buy something else at the same price! Besides the brand, you may want to know why they are asking that price. The brand may sometimes have nothing to do with the quality of the product.

  It can be of bad quality and badly made. This makes you think why it has the designer’s name on it. It’s very important for designers to use their creative talent to make something beautiful. But today the making of money has become more important. So they just copy other products and their standards fall.

  Creative products should be available to people at a reasonable price. In this way, big companies wouldn’t be able to dominate(控制)the market and encourage people to spend too much money on their products.

  They are dominating the market by telling us what to buy. If you go into a toy shop or children s clothes shop you’ll find the whole section for girls is almost all pink. Because of the domination of big companies, the original arts and crafts are beginning to die out. It would be a real shame if these arts and crafts were to disappear.

  Self-esteem(自尊)and Body Image

  Self-esteem is all about what people think of themselves. It is important because feeling good about yourself can affect how you act. People who have high self-esteem will make friends easily. They are more in control of their behavior, and will enjoy life more.

  Some teenagers struggle with their self-esteem when they grow into adults because the body goes through many changes. Along with the changes comes a natural desire to feel accepted. Whats more,they cant help[A1] but compare themselves with others. They may compare themselves with the people around them or with actors and other famous people they see on TV,in movies,or in magazines.

  The physical changes can affect how both girls and boys feel about themselves. Some girls may feel uncomfortable about their growing bodies. Others may wish that they were developing faster. Girls may feel like being thin but boys may feel like they don’t look big enough.

  Its not just body development that affects self-esteem. Many other factors can affect a persons body image too. Family life,for example,can sometimes influence self-esteem. Some parents spend more time criticizing their kids and the way they look than praising them. This can reduce kids ability to develop good self-esteem. Also their classmates and peers may tease them about the way they look[A2]. These sometimes can affect their self-esteem.

  If there are things about yourself that you want to change and you can change, do this by making goals for yourself. If there are things that you cant change,recognize that your body is your own. lts no ones business but your own what your body is like. Actually, to be happy with yourself all you need to do is to change the way you see your body.

  Helping Children Cope with Stress

  1To adults, childhood can seem to be happy and free from worries. But children still experience stress. Things like school and their social life can sometimes create pressures that are too difficult for them to deal with. While they may not talk about their troubles,they do want their parents to reach out and help them.

  2Children deal with stress in both healthy and unhealthy ways. As a parent,you cant protect your children from stress,but you can help them develop healthy ways to cope with stress and solve everyday problems. By doing so, you not only help your children handle their current stresses, but also prepare them to deal with future stresses. Here are a few tips for you.

  3When you notice that something is upsetting your child, you need to tell your child about it. if you can,name the feeling[A3] you think your child is experiencing. This shouldn’t sound like[p4] blame. It s just a casual [A5]observation, and you‘re interested in hearing more about your childs concern. Be sympathetic and show that you care and want to understand.

  4Also ask your child to tell you what’s wrong. Listen attentively and calmly [A6]with interest, patience, openness,and caring, Dont hurry to make judgements. Do not blame or criticize your child for what he or she has done. The idea is to listen to your child s concerns and feelings. Try to get the whole story by patiently asking questions. Take your time. And let your child take his or her time, too.

  5Remember to be patient. As a parent, it hurts to see your child unhappy of stressed. But you should not try to solve every problem for your child. Instead, try to help your child grow into a good problem solver, a child who knows how to deal with life’s ups and downs, express feelings in words calm down when needed and never give in to difficulties.

  The coyote(丛林狼)

  The coyote is a relative of the dog and the wolf. Like its relatives, it mostly feeds on other animals. It will, however,eat a wide variety of foods, including insects, fruits and vegetables. Coyotes are found throughout most of North America from Mexico and Central America to Canada and Alaska, The color of its coat depends on where it lives.26 E

  Like the wolf, coyotes live in groups, or packs. The coyote pack is usually smaller than a wolf pack.27 DThe pack will often divide into pairs to hunt. Female coyotes give birth to baby coyotes once a year. Over half of the babies will die before they reach adulthood. Male babies usually leave the pack to find their own territory.28 A

  Wolves and coyotes compete for the same animals for food. Since the coyote is smaller than the wolf, wolves will usually drive the coyote out of any shared living area.

  The coyote adapts easily to new areas. Unlike the wolf, the coyotes living area increased when more and more people settled across North America.29F Once the New England settlers eliminated wolves, the coyote moved in. Scientists who have studied the coyote believe it is better than the wolf at living in human areas.

  30 CThey find enough supply of food in these areas, since coyotes are willing to eat garbage, rodents (such as rabbits and mice) and even small pets. Scientists estimate [A7]that as many as 2,000 coyotes may be living in the Chicago area.

  A. Female babies stay with the parents pack

  B. The coyote is not an endangered species.

  C. Coyotes are now found in most large cities.

  D. All members of the pack are usually related.

  E. Mountain coyotes are darker than those living in the desert.

  F. For example,the coyote was not native to New England

  On a sunny day last April,Bode,then nine,and his father,John Taylor,54,were snowmobiling around the remote country of Lake Tahoe.As they were driving on the snow,a little dry branch jammed in the brake of Johns vehicle.Unable to slow down,John rushed toward a pine tree.He moved to jump off the vehicle before it crashed,but his pantleg (裤腿) caught underneath it.John felt his leg broken.As he sank six inches into the powdery snow, he could tell his arms and shoulder were injured too.Bode rushed to dig out his father,but John stopped him.They had no water,little food,and no cell phone service."Get on your snowmobile,"John told Bode."Follow the road,and try to find help."

  After a 20-minute ride,Bode spotted a tour group and asked the guide radio for help.The rescuers quickly appeared on the scene.And Bode led them through the white wilderness to his dad,who was pale and in pain.

  While they were waiting for a plane to send John to the nearest hospital,the rescuers quickly stabilized his leg.An hour later,he received surgery for the broken,leg and internal bleeding.

  Today,Johns leg has healed enough for him to take Bode out on dirt bikes.Father and son now carry extra devices on their trips,including a two-way radio withan emergency button."Im still a little afraid to go out on a snowmobile,"says Bode."Butm starting to feel better about it."

  Tisha Shaw,Bode’s mother,says her sons courage and quick thinking have led her to treat him as more of an adult.She lets him stay up later at night because"I trust his judgment," she says.

  1 Bode and his father went snowmobiling last April.()

  A: True

  B: False

  C: Not Given

  答案:A

  解析:正确。根据原文第一段,Bode 和他的父亲去年四月份去 Lake Tahoe 玩雪地摩托。因此,选项“Bode and his father wentsnowmobiling last April.”是正确的。

  2 Bode’s snowmobile broke down on the way.

  A: True

  B: False

  C: Not Given

  答案:B 解析:错误。原文说的是一根干枯的小树枝卡在了 John 的雪地摩托的刹车上,而不是 John 的雪地摩托坏了。因此选项“Bode’s snowmobile brokedown on the way.”是错 误的。

  3 John had an accident and injured himself.

  A: True

  B: False

  C: Not Given

  答案:A

  解析:正确。根据原文第一段,John 在雪地摩托时发生事故并受伤,所以选项“John had an accident and injuredhimself.”是正确的。

  4 John told his son to make a call for help.

  A: True

  B: False

  C: Not Given

  答案:B

  解析:错误。原文中他们没有手机服务,John 让 Bode 坐上雪地摩托沿着路寻找帮助,因此选项“John told his son to make a callfor help.”是错误的。

  5 A tour guide helped Bode to contact the rescuers.

  A: True

  B: False

  C: Not Given

  答案:A

  解析:正确。根据原文"After a 20-minute ride,Bode spotted a tour group and asked the guideradio for help",Bode 遇到了一队旅游者,并使用了旅游向导的无线电请求帮助,因此可以得出结论,一个旅游向导帮助 Bode 联系了救援人员。

  6 The rescuers stabilized Johns leg on the plane.

  A: True

  B: False

  C: Not Given

  答案:B

  解析:错误。根据原文"While they were waiting for a plane to send John to the nearesthospital,the rescuers quickly stabilized hisleg.",救援人员在等待飞机将John 送往最近的医院时,稳定了他的腿伤,而不是在飞机上稳定了他的腿伤。因此,这个陈述是不正确的。

  7 Johns surgery lasted for a long time.

  A: True

  B: False

  C: Not Given

  答案:C

  解析:未提及。根据原文"An hour later,he received surgery for the broken,leg and internalbleeding.",一个小时后,John 接受了骨折、腿部和内出血的手术,但并没有提到手术持续了多长时间

  8 Bode and his father are better equipped for their trips now.

  A: True

  B: False

  C: Not Given

  答案:A

  解析:正确。根据原文中的句子“Father and son now carry extra devices on their trips,including atwo-way radio with an emergencybutton”,可以得知 Bode 和他的父亲现在携带了额外的设备,包括一个带有紧急按钮的双向无线电,因此他们现在比以前准备的更好了。

  9 Bode learned to use the two-way radio quickly.

  A: True

  B: False

  C: Not Given

  答案:C

  解析:未提及。在文中没有提到 Bode 学会了快速使用双向无线电。

  10 Tisha Shaw has great praise for her son.

  A: True

  B: False

  C: Not Given

  答案:A

  解析:正确。根据原文中的句子“Tisha Shaw,Bode’s mother,says her son’s courage and quick thinkinghave led her to treat him as more of an adult.”,可以推断出 Tisha Shaw 对她的儿子有很高的评价。

  Secrets About Professional Chocolate Tasters

  ①Peoples faces light up when I say I taste chocolate for a living.but its not always delicious.I also have to taste bad chocolate.Im usually in a small room and sit in front of a computer to record information.Sometimes the room has red lighting.So I can evaluate chocolate only by taste,not appearance.

  ②I can sample as many as 30 chocolates per day.To taste them professionally,I spit the sweets back out.Thats another not-so-sweet part of the job.Between samples,I wait 30 seconds to let my senses rest,and I chew half an unsalted biscuit and drink plain warm water.

  ③First I smell the chocolate and record it.I also listen:Old chocolate doesnt make a clear and sharp sound when broken.Then I put a tiny piece in my mouth and leave it there for a few seconds.I let it melt and record the four basic tastes-sweet,sour,bitter and salty.

  ④I love chocolate.The bottom part of my refrigerator is filled with chocolate from different parts of the world.My favorite types are very high in cocoa(可可粉).Before I started tasting chocolate professionally,I ate a lot.But now I dont eat so much.

  ⑤Many people dont know how to appreciate the taste of chocolate.As a taster,I want to help others do what I do.To retrain your taste buds to enjoy better quality chocolate,try simple kinds that arent filled with ingredients like nuts.Look at food with curiosity and love. Notice its color,smell and taste.Then youll know good quality.

  Lots of work has to be done before the filming begins.The producer and the director plan how and when they will film each scene.

  A movie is filmed scene by scene.27____ The scenes are not usually filmed in the order you see in the movie.Sometimes the weather is bad and an outdoor scene cannot be filmed.Big fancy sets take a long time to build.Scenes using these sets are often shot later.However,you may see them at the beginning of the film.

  答案:26.E 27.A 28.D 29.F 30.B

  解析:26、【E.Thats why movies are sometimes called motion pictures.】 上下文提到电影是由一系列快速闪过的图片组成的,因此它们被称为动态图像,也就是运动中的图片。因此,答案是 E,即这就是为什么电影有时被称为动态图像。 27、【A.And a scene is filmed shot by shot.】 上 下文提到电影中的场景不是按照电影中出现的顺序拍摄的,因此需要逐个拍摄每个场景,因此答案是 A,即一个场景是逐个镜头拍摄的。

  28、【D.They also include computer-made images.】 上 下文提到电影中有时需要特殊效果,包括小模型和巧妙设计的场景,电影制作人用这些来拍摄不存在的场景和地点。因此可以推断出答案为 D,即这些效果还包括计算机生成的图像。 29、【F.Moviemakers can then change the images any way they want.】 上 下文提到电影可以被转换成计算机文件,并且可以使用计算机创建新的图像,因此电影制作人员可以随意改变图像,因此答案是 F。 30、【B.Computers can even make imagesof actors.】 上 下文提到《泰坦尼克号》中的许多图像,包括船上的人群,实际上都是由电脑制作的。因此可以推断出计算机可以制作演员的图像,因此答案是 B。

  Do You Love Your Dog More Than Humans?

  Elizabeth Anderson once had a dog named Grace.She and her husband cared for Grace and tried to keep her out of trouble.They took her on vacations and enjoyed her company around the house.When Grace died at age 14,they were deeply upset.Because Grace was a dog,"I was unable to talk to anyone about this great grief,"says Anderson.

  “But its common to feel that way after the loss of a dog,”says Stanley Coren,a professor of psychology.“Our relationship with dogs is simple.Some might call it true love.”

  The bond between people and their dogs is a lot like love.In one recent study,when the dogs and their owners just looked at each other,they both had a higher level of the hormone (荷尔蒙)associated with love.“It is very natural to form a bond between dogs and humans,” says Takefumi Kikusui,author of the study.“But we found the same cant be said for humans and wolves."

  “Dogs are mans best friend,”says Coren.“Weve trained them to be that way.We invented the dog to fit in our lives.For 14,000 years,weve been creating an animal which understands our communications and we understand its communications.They have a bond with us.”For example,if a person points to something in a distance,a dog will look in the direction of the finger,just like a human.But what about a wolf?“It would simply look at the finger,”Coren says.

  For Anderson,dogs are more lovable than humans.She says,“They try their best to please us.They want to do whatever we want to do.Their love is not limited.They are good at all the things we enjoy in a relationship."

  Marta Garcia:Inspired by Technology

  Marta Garcia is a high school senior.In the past years she has been working on a variety of projects.The projects are part of her work with Techbridge,a nonprofit organization. Techbridge was set up in 2000 to increase the number of women in science,technology, engineering and math(STEM).It offers a range of after-school activities for students.

  Techbridge focuses on learning by doing.It attracts Martas interest.“When I was a kid,” says Marta,“I wasnt into English.I was really into technology and math.My older sister was in Techbridge.She encouraged me to join.It was something for me to do after school.I found it pretty fun."

  Marta has created a complex music-making machine.Her latest project is a digital piano, which shows how far her STEM skills have advanced.Martas instructors have been following her progress closely.“Tve seen her master STEM skills,”says Techbridge CEO Linda Kekelis.“Shes very confident to face challenges.She isnt afraid of temporary setbacks.”

  Marta plans to attend Smith College this fall.She is still drawn to math and technology.

  But she does not want to be limited to one particular course of study.

  The Kid That Saved His Dad

  On a sunny day last April,Bode,then nine,and his father,John Taylor,54,were snowmobiling around the remote country of Lake Tahoe.As they were driving on the snow,alittle dry branch jammed in the brake of Johns vehicle.Unable to siow down,John rushed toward a pine tree.He moved to jump off the vehicle before it crashed,but his pantleg(裤腿)caught underneath it.John felt his leg broken.As he sank six inches into the powdery snow,he could tell his arms and shoulder were injured too.Bode rushed to dig out his father,but John stopped him.They had no water,little food,and no cell phone service."Get on your snowmobile,"John told Bode."Follow the road,and try to find help."

  After a 20-minute ride,Bode spotted a tour group and asked the guide to radio for help.

  The rescuers quickly appeared on the scene.And Bode led them through the white wilderness to his dad,who was pale and in pain.

  While they were waiting for a plane to send John to the nearest hospital,the rescuers quickly stabilized his leg.An hour later,he received surgery for the broken leg and internal bleeding.

  Today, Johns leg has healed enough for him to take Bode out on dirt bikes. Father and son now carry extra devices on their trips, including a two-way radio with an emergency button. "Im still a little afraid to go out on a snowmobile,"says Bode. "But Im starting to feel better about it."

  Tisha Shaw, Bodes mother, says her sons courage and quick thinking have led her to treat him as more of an adult. She lets him stay up later at night because "I trust his judgment,"she says.

  Secrets About Professional Chocolate Tasters

  ①Peoples faces light up when I say I taste chocolate for a living,but its not always delicious.I also have to taste bad chocolate.Im usually in a small room and sit in front of a computer to record information.Sometimes the room has red lighting.So I can evaluate chocolate only by taste,not appearance.

  ②I can sample as many as 30 chocolates per day.To taste them professionally,I spit the sweets back out.Thats another not-so-sweet part of the job.Between samples,I wait 30 seconds to let my senses rest,and I chew half an unsalted biscuit and drink plain warm water.

  ③First I smell the chocolate and record it.I also listen:Old chocolate doesnt make a clear and sharp sound when broken.Then I put a tiny piece in my mouth and leave it there for a few seconds.I let it melt and record the four basic tastes—sweet,sour,bitter and salty.

  ④I love chocolate.The bottom part of my refrigerator is filled with chocolate from different parts of the world.My favorite types are very high in cocoa(可可粉).Before I started tasting chocolate professionally,I ate a lot.But now I dont eat so much.

  ⑤Many people dont know how to appreciate the taste of chocolate.As a taster,I want to help others do what I do.To retrain your taste buds to enjoy better quality chocolate,try simple kinds that arent filled with ingredients like nuts.Look at food with curiosity and love.Notice its color,smell and taste.Then youll know good quality.

  How to Shoot a Movie

  A movie is a series of pictures.Each image is a still picture,just like a picture you take with a regular camera.But the pictures flash by so fast in a movie.As a result,you see horses run,people talk,and other kinds of motion._26Movies are also called films because they are filmed.

  Lots of work has to be done before the filming begins.The producer and the director plan how and when they will film each scene.

  A movie is filmed scene by scene._27The scenes are not usually filmed in the order you see in the movie.Sometimes the weather is bad and an outdoor scene cannot be filmed.Big fancy sets take a long time to build.Scenes using these sets are often shot later.However,you may see them at the beginning of the film.

  Sometimes a movie needs special effects.They include small models of huge scenes andcleverly designed sets._28Moviemakers use these to film scenes and places that do not exist.They might use a small model of a large building to film the building falling down.

  Films can be turned into computer files._29_They can use computers to make new images.For example,dinosaurs(恐龙)made by computer looked like they were flying in some films.

  30Many images in Titanic,including crowds of people on the ship,were actually made by computer.In some other films,computers were used to make the actors look as if they were fighting while floating in the air.

  A. And a scene is filmed shot by shot.

  B. Computers can even make images of actors.

  C. Moviemaking includes several different stages.

  D. They also include computer-made images.

  E. Thats why movies are sometimes called motion pictures.

  F. Moviemakers can then change the images any way they want.

  Bicycle Commuting

  I may not be a movie star, best selling author, or millionaire when I grow up, but one thing I will be known for, at least locally, is commuting by bicycle. Im sad to see how few people do even though many could. Lots of people eagerly campaign for the reduction of greenhouse gases, but by driving cars, theyre still contributing to the problem.

  You might be picturing me as an extreme environmentalist (环保主义者), but Im not one of those teenagers who wear shirts that say "Help save the world: Recycle." Actually, my interest in exercise, health, and fitness led me to cycling.

  Cycling can help you lose weight, improve your health, and prevent many diseases. Cycling also carries a relatively low chance of injury.

  While being good for your body, bicycle commuting is also a great way to cut greenhouse gases. Many environmentalists recycle, plant tees, and drive hybrid cars (混合动力汽车),but bicycle commuting could be even more effective than all of those combined. You could cut down the amount of greenhouse gases just by commuting by bicycle a few times a week.

  Bicycle commuting saves money too. When you buy your bicycle and the things that usually go with it. You might be shocked by the cost. But if you think about the increasingly high gas prices, you will know for sure that you can save a significant amount each year by not driving a car.

  You might think that you dont have time for bicycle commuting Actually, you probably do. You could cut back[p1] on your TV time and pick up this activity, It helps you care for the environment, save money, and most importantly get fit.

  Spilt (打翻的)Milk

  I recently heard a story about a famous scientist who had made several very important medical achievements. He was asked why he was so much more creative than the average person。

  He responded that it all came from an experience when he was about two. He had been trying to remove a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he lost his grip (紧握) and it fell, spilling (打翻) the milk all over the floor。

  When his mother came into the kitchen,instead of yelling at him, or punishing him, she said, “Robert, what a wonderful mess you have made! Well, the damage has already been done. Would you like to play in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?”

  Indeed, he did,After a few minutes, his mother said, “Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to clean it up. So, how would you like to do that? We could use a sponge ( 海绵) or a towel. Which do you prefer?" He chose the sponge and together they cleaned up the spilt milk.

  His mother then said ,“You know, what we have here is a failed experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands. Let s go out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can discover away to carry it without dropping it" The little boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands,he could carry it without dropping it.

  The scientist remarked that it was then that he knew he didn’t need to be afraid to make mistakes. Instead, mistakes were. just opportunities for learning Something new, which is, after all[p2] , what scientific experiments are a1l about. Even if the experiment" doesn’t work, ”we usually learn something valuable from it.

  Volunteers

  ① Volunteers are people who work without being paid. They do the work because they want to. We need volunteers because there are many things that need to be done in society which the Government cant afford to pay for.

  ② Volunteers are motivated by a desire to help others and to make the world a better place. Statistics suggest that more than one million people do voluntary work in New Zealand. Some volunteers do the kind of work that they are particularly interested in, but perhaps havent had the chance to do during their working lives. Others make use of their professional skills and experience.

  ③ Volunteers contribute to society in a number of ways. For example, some give their time to help preserve the natural environment. While there are government-run projects to maintain national parks and forests, the projects would not succeed without volunteers. Some environmental organizations rely solely [p4] on voluntary labor.

  ④ "Meals on Wheels" is a voluntary organization run by the Red Cross. It delivers meals to elderly people who are unable to cook for themselves. Every year volunteer drivers deliver a million meals. This enables elderly people to remain in their own houses.

  ⑤ Volunteer Service Abroad was started in 1962. It sends volunteers to poor countries. To be a volunteer you should be between the ages of 25 and 77, of good health and have a skill or ability that is requested by the country. Volunteers spend two years helping the local people improve their lives. Two years is a long time, but when they return, many volunteers say: It was the best two years of my life.

  How to Talk to a Doctor

  Its one of the saddest situations in modern medicine, the average doctor1 s appointment lasts 15 minutes or less. 26 A That doesnt leave much time for chatting about the weather or your mood

  What you dont realize but what I see, very clearly as a doctor is that what the patient says is more important than ever. 27 F They can also make it much harder for me to figure out whats wrong with you.

  Medical schools teach a specific way to conduct an office visit. Part one is the complaint. 28 D Part two in the physical exam, And part three is when the doctor gives you a diagnosis and prescribes tests or a treatment. Chances are, you focus on part three, but the patients who receive the best care are those who master part one. The key is to describe in detail what youve been feeling not just "bad, "but what kind of bad, for how long, and after what kind of activity.

  29 B Even though Ive been a doctor for many years, I tend to be a little nervous when Im the one sitting on the exam table. If I haven1 t prepared, I lose track of the details I intended to share E 30 When the doctor asks you questions, you can be more specified, and the diagnosis and treatment will be more accurate. And there may be a few 欢 minutes leftover for a little pleasant conversation!

  A. No wonder[p5] you feel rushed.

  B. Of course, thats easier said than done.

  C. It is wise to see a doctor with your friend

  D. It is also called the description of your problem.

  E. So I take a few minutes to write down some crucial [p6] details.

  F. In fact, your descriptions can help me give you great care.

  正确答案:

  26.答案 A:No wonder you feel rushed.

  27.答案 F:In fact, your descriptions can help me give you great care.

  Why Dogs Bury Their Favorite Bones

  You may find it crazy that your dog buries his favorite bone or chew toy, only to dig it up a day or two later, but there is actually a reason behind it- -it is simply in their nature. For thousands of years, dogs have buried their bones. The practice itself started long before dogs were even pets when they had to bury bones to survive.

  When dogs lived in the wild, sometimes food was scarce. If they were able to find food, dogs became very protective of it. Sometimes they would have more bones than they could eat for one meal. To keep other dogs and animals from stealing their bones, dogs would bury them in the ground. When it was time for the next meal, they would dig up their bones and enjoy them again. This would continue until the bones were gone.

  Even though most dogs have plenty of food to eat today, their instincts still tell them to bury their bones and favorite toys. They do this to keep other dogs and animals from stealing them, just like their ancestors did. Some dogs keep at least two bones buried at once. When they want to dig up one, they will bury one more. This may leave a backyard full of holes and bones.

  How do dogs decide where to bury their bones? A dog cannot bury a bone just anywhere. He must first find the perfect spot. This involves using his nose to find a spot that is free from other dogs and animals. Often it is near a tree or a large rock, but it could be anywhere in the yard. Once the dog finds the perfect spot, he uses his front paws to dig a hole, drops the bone in and covers up the hole to protect his treasure.

  Public Wi-Fi Users Neglect Safety

  A recent survey shows that 25% of Internet users have done online banking through public WiFi in the last three months. It also shows that 27% have bought a product or service with a credit card this way.

  Experts worry that hackers (黑客) will take advantage of these practices. Doug Shadel said that hackers usually attack in two ways. They may create Wi-Fi hotspots that have the same name of the ones you trust, such as a hotel or a coffee shop. They may also provide a stronger Wi-Fi signal to get between you and the safe hotspot. In either case, the hackers can see your email, credit card information, user names and passwords.

  Sometimes hackers just set up their electronic traps near a business where people enjoy the free Wi-Fi. "In most cases they are after your personal information," Shadel said.“If you use the same user name and password for many accounts, they can get into them all. Its possible for any hacker to do it. The software to hack into a Wi-Fi network is available at little or no cost"

  "Its difficult for people to know if a Wi-Fi network is safe," Shadel said.“So you should just think they are not. Any shared Internet access, free or paid, carries the same level of risk. It is safe only when you or someone you trust directly controls it."

  Shadel sometimes checks email through public Wi-Fi. But he never does any banking that way. In an unfamiliar place, he uses a Virtual Private Network (V P N). "This service creates a passage between your device and a safe place on the Internet," he said.

  11. A recent survey finds that 25% of Internet users use public W-Fi to____.

  A. do banking

  B. buy things

  C. provide service

  D. play cards

  12. The phrase "take advantage of" (Para. 2) can best be replaced by“____”.

  A. adjust to

  B. benefit from

  C. lead to

  D. result from

  13. According to Shadel, any hacker can____.

  A. create different passwords

  B. open an electronic account

  C. steal peoples information

  D. write software for businesses

  14. For the sake of safety, Internet users are advised to____.

  A. test shared Internet access

  B. rely on paid Internet access

  C. look for free Internet access

  D. avoid shared Internet access

  15. Shadel uses public Wi-Fi to____.

  A. learn about V P N

  B. deal with his emails

  C. keep his account safe

  D. handle financial matters

  I Use Every Second Before I Go to Work

  I wake up at 6a.m. every day. The first thing I do when I wake up is grab my smartphone and take it to the bathroom with me, where I start my day by consuming quite a lot of information. I go to some websites, but the main site that I focus on during this time is Nuzzel, a collector of headlines and links. I recommend everyone look into it if they feel they dont have time to properly focus on every website individually.

  After visiting those sites, I head to Twitter, my No.1 outlet for communication with the public. Twitter is becoming a listening platform. There is such a volume of information on the platform that you need pay attention to. So I spend a great amount of my morning responding to people and starting conversations.

  After all this comes my workout (锻炼) with my trainer. I usually work out for about 45 minutes. The specific workout routine varies depending on the day of the week, what I ate, and how much Ive been traveling.

  After the workout, I head back home to get my children ready for school. I say bye to them and give them each a kiss before they leave. Then, Im off to my office, often before 9 a.m.

  In the car to my office, I call my mom, dad or sister. I talk to them just to learn what theyre up to. I really value those small moments. By the time I step into my office, so much is going through my head. My day starts the minute I open my eyes.

  Banning Mobile Phones at School

  It is a question that keeps some parents awake at night. Should children be allowed to take mobile phones to school?_26 DFor parents who want their children to do well at school, it is no.

  Banning mobile phones at school is effective. According to a UK study, after schools banned mobile phones, the test scores of students improved by 6.4%. The findings will influence the debate about children and mobile phones. In the UK, more than 90% of teenagers own a mobile phone; in the US, 75% have one. The popular mobile phone is a problem in the eye of teachers._27 AIn a 2001 survey, no school banned mobiles. By 2007, this had risen to 50%. By 2012, 98% of schools had taken action. Some did not allow phones. The others required them to be handed in at the beginning of the day.

  28F New York City has lifted a 10-year ban on phones at school. It says that lifting the ban will promote equality. "This view is wrong," the researchers of the UK study write. “We found that the ban led to improvements in test scores among students. Low-achieving students gained the most._29 EAllowing phones into schools will harm the lowest achieving students the most."

  The UK study was carried out at Birmingham, London, Leicester and Manchester schools before and after bans were introduced. "Technology is commonly viewed as increasing efficiency," the researchers write. “Modern technology is used in the classroom to improve student performance._30 C_ Some students will pay no attention to their class."

  A. They are worried about the trend. 他们担心这个趋势

  B. The mobile phone is a good example. 手机是一个好的例子

  C. However, there are potential problems. 然而,那样有潜在的问题

  D. Now researchers say that they have an answer. 现在的研究说他们有一个答案

  E. Therefore, lifting the ban may in fact lead to the opposite. 因此,解除限制可能实际上会导致反对

  F. However, some schools are starting to allow limited use of mobile phones. 然而,一些学校正在开始允许有限的使用
