【题目】

Welcome to your future life

You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. Your face is firm and young-looking. In 2035,medical technology is better than ever. Many people your age could live to be 150,so at 40,you're not old at all. And your parents just had an anti-aging(抗衰老的) treatment. Now, all three of you look the same age!

You say to your shirt,"Turn red. "It changes from blue to red. In 2035," smart clothes" contain particles(粒子)much smaller than the cells in your body. The particles can be programmed to change your clothes' color or pattern.

You walk into the kitchen. You pick up the milk, but a voice says," You shouldn't drink that !" Your fridge has read the chip (芯片)that contains information about the milk, and it knows the milk is old. In 2035,every article of food in the grocery store has such a chip.

It's time to go to work. In 2035,cars drive themselves. Just tell your" smart car" where to go. On the way, you can call a friend using your jacket sleeve. Such " smart technology" is all around you.

So will all these things come true? "For new technology to succeed," says scientist Andrew Zolli," it has to be so much better that it replaces what we have already. " The Internet is one example-what will be the next?

【题目】Dear Dad,

Today I was at the shopping mall and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cardsThey all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about youYet as I selected and readit occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you

You'll soon be 84 years oldDadand you and I will have had 55 Father's Days togetherI haven't always been with you on Father's Day but I've always been with you in my heart

You knowDadthere was a time when we were separated by the generation gapYou stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other

The Father Daughter Duel shifted into high gear ( 档位) when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the '54 Chevy whether you liked it or notThe police officer who sent me homeafter you reported the Chevy stolendidn't have much tolerance for a stubborn 16 year oldwhile you were so tolerant about itDadand I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life

Our relationship greatly improved when I married a man you likedand things really turned around when we began making babies right and leftSomewhere along the linethe generation gap disappearedI suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging togetherrather like a fine wine

I guess what I'm trying to sayDadis what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad todayHonoring a father on Father's Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and takingIt's about loving someone more than words can sayand it's wishing that never had to end

I love youDad

Love,

Jenny

【题目】

Calling the future

When American inventor Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876,it was a revolution in communication. For the first time, people could talk to each other over great distances. Over the last two decades a new means of spoken communication has appeared :the mobile phone.

The mobile phone is like a two-way radio. But the two-way radio is a limited means of communication. As soon as the users move out of range of each other's broadcast area, the signal is lost. In the 1940s, researchers experimented with the idea of using a number of radio masts(无线电杆)to pick up signals from two-way radios. A caller would always be within range of one of the masts. When he or she moved too far away from one mast, the next mast would pick up the signal. (Scientists referred to each mast's reception area as being a "cell". This is why in many countries mo-bile phones are called "cellphones".)

However,1940s, technology was just at the beginning. The "mobile phones" were huge boxes. They had to be moved by car.

The first real mobile telephone call was made in 1973 by Dr Martin Cooper. As soon as his invention was complete, he tested it by calling a rival (竞争对手)scientist to announce his success. Within a decade, mobile phones became available to the public.

They have changed the way we do a lot of things. One powerful feature is: the short message service(SMS) or text message. It's the perfect communication method for the busy modern lifestyle. The text message has changed the way we write in English. The language construction became more lax (松散的). Traditional rules of grammar and spelling are much less important.

Over the last few years mobiles have become more and more advanced. We have seen the introduction of cameras, global positioning system and Internet access.

Alexander Graham Bell would be surprised if he could see how far the science of the telephone has developed in less than 150years. If he were around today, he might say " That's gr8! But I'm v busy rite now. Will call U 2nite. "

【1】 The article is written to __________.

A. warn people of the possible risks in using mobile phones

B. inform readers of the history and development of mobile phones

C. convince people of the uses of mobile phones

D. predict the applications of mobile phones

【2】 What's the CORRECT time order about the development of communication?

a. the telephone invented by Alexander Graham Bell

b. "mobile phones" with very large boxes

c. mobile telephone call made by Dr Martin Cooper

d. mobiles with cameras, GPS and Internet access

A. a, c,b, d

B. b, a,c, d

C. a, c,d, b

D. a, b,c, d

【3】 The last sentence of the whole passage "That's gr8 But I'm v busy rite now. Will call U 2nite. " may probably mean __________.

A. That's great! But I'm very busy right now. (I)Will call you to-night

B. It's eight now. I'm very busy. (I) Will call you tonight

C. That's great! But I'm busy writing now. (I) Will call you at two tonight

D. "8" is great! But I'm very busy right now. (I) Will call it "U" to night

【题目】Poet William Stafford once said that we are defined more by the detours(绕行路) in life than by the narrow road toward goals. I like this image. But it was quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words.

For years we made the long drive from our home in Seattle to my parents' home in Boise in nine hours. We traveled the way most people do: the fastest, shortest, easiest road, especially when I was alone with four noisy, restless kids who hate confinement(限制) and have strong opinions about everything.

Road trips felt risky,so I would drive fast, stopping only when I had to. We would stick to the freeways and arrive tired.

But then Banner, our lamb was born. He was rejected by his mama days before our planned trip to Boise. I had two choices: leave Banner with my husband, or take him with me. My husband made the decision for me.

That is how I found myself on the road with four kids, a baby lamb and nothing but my everlasting optimism to see me through. We took the country roads out of necessity. We had to stop every hour, let Banner shake out his legs and feed him. The kids chased him and one another. They'd get back in the car breathless and energized, smelling fresh from the cold air.

We explored side roads, catching grasshoppers in waist-high grass. Even if we simply looked out of the car windows at baby pigs following their mother, or fish leaping out of the water, it was better than the best ride down the freeway. Here was life. And new horizons(见识).

We eventually arrived at my parents' doorstep astonishingly fresh and full of stories.

I grew brave with the trip back home and creative with my disciplining technique. On an empty section of road, everyone started quarreling. I stopped the car, ordered all kids out and told them to meet me up ahead. I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence.

Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight. But that trip with Banner opened our eyes to a world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of journey—and the best part of yourself.

【1】Why did the author use to take freeways to her parents' home?

A.It was less tiring.

B.It would be faster and safer.

C.Her kids would feel less confined.

D.She felt better with other drivers nearby.

2The author stopped regularly on the country roads to ________.

A.relax in the fresh air

B.take a deep breath

C.take care of the lamb

D.let the kids play with Banner

3Why did the author ask the kids to get out of the car on their way back home?

A.To give herself some time to read.

B.To order some food for them.

C.To play a game with them.

D.To let them cool down.

4What could be the best title for the passage?

A.Charm of the Detour

B.The Road to Bravery

C.Creativity out of Necessity

D.Road Trip and Country Life
