阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Saber Miresmailli was on vacation in London when, caught in a bit of traffic on London Bridge, he decided to take a photo of Tower Bridge.
"I noticed the couple," he said. "At that moment, I did not see anyone from the wedding party or a photographer with the couple, so I took several pictures. Usually, my pictures are not very good given the fact that I don’t use flash and I don’t stop to compose (构图)—so when we get back after two weeks, I was very surprised to find this one turned out so well."
Miresmailli said, "I thought to myself, if it was me getting married, I would have wanted the picture."
So he posted the photo on Facebook and attached a few friends with the hope of finding the couple and passing them the picture. What happened next, he said, "was crazy."
"I received more than 2,000 requests from perfect strangers and lots of positive and negative emails." Until this afternoon, almost 230,000 people had shared his Facebook post on the photo.
There's also been an uncertain identification of the couple. It's likely that their names are Laura and James. “If it's the right couple,” Miresmailli said, “they are on their honeymoon in Bali and have no idea about the photo. I believe they will be shocked to find out about their fame”.
Miresmailli said he's been drowned by the interest in the photo.
"I just want to give them their picture and go back to work and tend my tomatoes," he said.

Unseen Art wants to give the Mona Lisa and other world-famous artworks the 3D treatment so that they can be touched, making them accessible to the blind and visually impaired(受损的). “There are many people in the world who have heard of classical artworks their whole lives but are unable to see them,” say Marc Dillon, advocate for the project. “Now they can experience them for the first time and create their own impressions and opinions.”
The project is currently crowd-funding(大众筹资) on Indiegogo, offering 3D prints of the Mona Lisa for backers, which can be kept or donated to an organization serving the blind and visually impaired community. The money raised will be used to fund an online platform where the 3D files will be down-loadable for free, making 3D printable art available worldwide, anywhere there is a 3D printer.
The project strikes a personal chord(引起共鸣) with Dillon. “I was born with one arm shorter than the other. All my life, I continually had to prove that I was able to do everything I wanted to, from playing guitar and riding motorcycles to life-guarding and weightlifting. I also had an uncle who worked as a mechanic(技工) and became blind in adulthood. I saw he was able to continue to do almost anything a seeing person could do.”
To test the concept, Dillon took the first 3D print to the Blind Institute of Finland, “They were very excited to touch the Mona Lisa!”says Dillon. In a video for the project, one can see a blind woman experiencing da Vinci’s masterpiece through touch. Just like countless others throughout history, she is interested in Mona Lisa’s mysterious expression.“It’s a little bit… mysterious,” she says happily. “She wasn’t exactly a classical beauty！”
1.World-famous artworks are printed with 3D technology to ________ .
A. allow the disabled to experience by themselves
B. raise money for an online platform
C. keep those works for future generation
D. make money for themselves
2.How can the money raised be used?
A. For any printing office.
B. Other similar projects.
C. For an online platform.
D. Other famous artworks.
3.According to paragraph 3, we can know that ________ .
A. Dillon became blind in childhood
B. Dillon’s uncle was disabled too.
C. Dillon tried to become a mechanic
D. Dillon’s uncle created 3-D technology
4.After a blind woman experienced the printed works, she felt ________ .
A. disappointed B. worried C. unsatisfied D. excited

Since Henry Ford turned it into a mass?market product a century ago, the car has delivered many benefits. It has promoted economic growth, increased social mobility and given people a lot of fun. But the car has also brought many problems. It pollutes the air, creates traffic jams and kills people. An astonishing 1.24 million people die, and as many as 50 million are hurt, in road accidents each year.
Drivers and passengers waste around 90 billion hours in traffic jams each year. In some car?choked cities as much as a third of the petrol used is burned by people looking for a space to park.
Fortunately, a new technology promises to make motoring safer, less polluting and less tendency to hold?ups. “Connected cars” — which may eventually develop into driverless cars but for the foreseeable future will still have a human at the wheel — can communicate wirelessly with each other and with traffic management systems, avoid walkers and other vehicles and find open parking spots.
Some parts of the transformation are already in place. Many new cars are already being fitted with equipment that lets them keep their distance and stay in a motorway automatically at a range of speeds. Soon, all new cars in Europe will have to be able to warn the emergency services if their on?board sensors (传感器) discover a crash. Singapore has led the way with using variable tolls (道路通行费) to smooth traffic flows during rush hours; Britain is pioneering “smart motorways”， whose speed limits vary constantly to achieve a_similar_effect. These new inventions could create a much more highly effective system in which cars and their drivers are constantly warned of dangers and showed the ways. Traffic always flows at the proper speed and vehicles can travel closer together, yet with less risk of crashing.
In the past, more people driving meant more roads, more jams, more death and more pollution. In future, the connected car could offer mankind the pleasures of the road with rather less of the pain.
1.According to Paragraph 2, the problem of parking has resulted in ________.
A.more time on the road
B.a great waste of fuel
C.even heavier traffic jams
D.increased death and injuries
2.What does “a similar effect” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A.Reducing traffic jams.
B.Building smart motorways.
C.Setting proper speed limits.
D.Keeping steady traffic flows.
3.What is the author's attitude towards connected cars?
A.Curious. B.Doubtful.
C.Supportive. D.Disappointed.
4.Which of the following can be the best title of the text?
A.The Future of Cars: Wireless Wheels
B.The Future Traffic Management System
C.The Benefits and Problems of Cars
D.The Promising Future of Car Production

People often have the impression that Chinese characters are extremely difficult to learn. In fact, if you were to try to learn how to write Chinese characters, you would find that they are not nearly as difficult as you may have imagined. And they certainly qualify as forming one of the most attractive, beautiful, logical(合乎逻辑的), and scientifically constructed(构造) writing systems in the world. Each stroke(笔画) has its own special significance. If you are familiar with the rules of Chinese characters, you will find it very easy to remember even the most complicated looking character, and never miss a stroke.
The earliest known examples of Chinese written characters in their developed form are carved into tortoise shells and ox bones. The majority of these characters are pictographs. Archaeologists of various countries have learned that most early writing systems went through a pictographic stage, as did the Egyptian hieroglyphics. Most writing systems, however, eventually developed a phonetic(表示语音的) alphabet to represent the sounds of spoken language rather than visual images observed in the physical world.
One notable feature of Chinese characters is the "radical." "Radical" in English means "root". For example, the characters yu "language," shuo "talk," i "discuss," "opinion," and lun "discuss" all share the yen radical, which means "language," and gives the reader a clue to the meaning of the character as a whole. The characters hsiu "rotten," shan "cedar," " t'ao "peach," and lin "forest," all contain the mu "wood" or "tree" radical, indicating one of their shared key characteristics. If you know the radical of a character, you can usually get a general idea of the meaning of the character it is a part of. Although there is a theoretical total of almost 50,000 written Chinese characters, only about 5,000 of these are frequently used; and the total number of radicals is only 214. So learning to read and write Chinese is not nearly so formidable a task as it may at first seem.
1.According to the author, Chinese characters are ________.
A. extremely difficult to learn
B. scientifically constructed
C. difficult to remember
D. as difficult as you may have imagined
2.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. There are rules in forming the Chinese characters.
B. Some strokes are more important than others.
C. All the Chinese characters are pictographs.
D. Some writing systems eventually developed a phonetic alphabet.
3.The passage is mainly about ________.
A. pictographs
B. the strokes of the Chinese characters
C. the Chinese writing system
D. the radical of the Chinese characters
