    The Gold Coast family holidays are always great fun whether you are from Australia or from abroad. There are beautiful beaches, adventure parks, nature parks and so much more.
    There are so many sights to see here. It is a pity to drive in a car and you’ll miss a great part of it. Australia is home to many animals and birds that can only be seen when moving slowly and going into the areas that they live.
    When you are on a bicycle, you have the advantage of being able to stop whenever you want to see an interesting animal or bird that you have never seen before. It is a quieter mode （方式） of transportation as well, so you might even be able to take a picture. When you are on the beach, you can breathe that clean air and view the beauty of the water and sand. It is a totally different experience from either simply sunbathing or passing it in a car.
    There are many choices of hiring a bicycle to experience the Gold Coast attractions. There are stores that will fit a bike perfectly to your size. These bikes for both adults and children are in many styles and colors to please any taste. If you have ever wanted to try a tandem bike （双人单车）, now is your chance, because they have those too.
    A bicycle hire on Gold Coast is something that everyone should try at least once. This is a wonderful chance for anyone who likes to cycle and it is also a cheap way to travel with your family.
    小题1:You’d better not drive in a car on Gold Coast because ________.

    A．you can take photos of animals
    B．it is a cheap way of traveling

    D．He thinks it’s only good for adults.

    小题1:C
    小题2:D
    小题3:B
    小题4:A

    试题分析：文章主要介绍了澳大利亚黄金海岸的旅游景点，在那里，骑自行车游览是一大特色，得到了作者的大力推荐。
    小题1:根据第二段“There are so many sights to see here. It is a pity to drive in a car and you’ll miss a great part of it.”可知，澳大利亚黄金海岸有许多景点，开车去的话，会错过许多的美景。故选C。
    小题2:根据第三段“...being able to stop whenever you want to see an interesting animal or bird...be able to take a picture”可知，A、C正确；根据最后一段的“a cheap way to travel”可知，B正确；“It is a totally different experience from either simply sunbathing or passing it in a car.
    ”骑自行车游览和单纯的日光浴及开车是完全不一样的经历。D项把骑自行车等同于日光浴，是错误的，故选D。
    小题3:根据第四段“There are many choices of hiring a bicycle...These bikes for both adults and children are in many styles and colors...try a tandem bike”可知，本段主要介绍的是自行车的类型，故选B。
    小题4:根据最后一段“everyone should try at least once...a wonderful chance...”可知，作者极力推荐骑自行车游览，故选A。

    Su Hua is studying at Cambridge, UK. She has bought a bicycle and is worried about security. Her friend, Kate, found this article and sent it to her.
    Introduction
    A lot of crime is against bicycles. About 150,000 bicycles are stolen every year and most are never found. You can prevent this happening by following a few careful steps.
    Basic Security
    Do not leave your bicycle in out-of-the-way places. Always lock your bicycle when you leave. Secure it to lampposts or trees. Take off smaller parts and take them with you, for example lights and saddles(车座).
    Locks
    Get a good lock. There are many different types in the shop. Buy one that has been tested against attack. Ask for a recommendation from a bike shop.
    Marking
    Security marking your bike can act as a deterrent(威慑) to a thief. It can also help the police find your bicycle. It should be clearly written and include your postcode and your house or flat number. This will provide a simple way to identify your bicycle.
    Registration
    There are a number of companies who will mark your bicycle for you. They will then put your registration number and personal details on their computer database. Then if your bicycle is found it will be easy to contact you.
    Finally
    Keep a record of the bicycle yourself: its make, model and registration number. You can even take a photograph of it, this will prove the bicycle belongs to you.

    A hobby can be almost anything a person likes to do in his spare time. Hobbyists raise pets, build model ships, weave baskets, watch birds, hunt animals, climb mountains, raise flowers, fish, ski, skate, and swim. Hobbyists also paint pictures, attend concerts and plays, and perform on musical instruments. They collect everything from books to butterflies, and from shells to stamps.
    People take up hobbies because these activities offer enjoyment, friendship, knowledge, and relaxation. Sometimes they even produce financial profit(利润). Hobbies help people balance between work and play. Hobbies also offer interesting activities for persons who have retired. Anyone, rich or poor, old or young, sick or well, can follow a satisfying hobby, regardless of (不论)his age, position, or income.
    Hobbies can help a person’s mental and physical health. Doctors have found that hobbies are valuable in helping patients recover from physical or mental illness. Hobbies give bedridden or wheel-chair patients something to do, and provide interests that keep them from thinking about themselves. Many hospitals treat patients by having them take up interesting hobbies or pastimes.
    In early times, most people were too engaged in making a living to have many hobbies. But some persons who had leisure(休闲)did enjoy hobbies. The ancient Egyptians played games with balls made of wood or pottery.
    People today have more time than ever before for hobbies. Machines have reduced the amount of time they must spent on their jobs. Hobbies provide variety for workers who do the same monotonous(单调的) tasks all day long. More people are retiring than ever before, and at an earlier age. Those who have developed hobbies never need to worry about what to do with their newly found leisure hours.
    Sir William Osier, a famous Canadian doctor, expressed the value of hobbies by saying, “No man is really happy or safe without a hobby.”

    For those who make journeys across the world, the speed of travel today has turned the countries into a series of villages. Distances between them appear no greater to a modern traveler than those which once faced men as they walked from village to village. Jet planes fly people from one end of the earth to the other, allowing them a freedom of movement undreamt of a hundred years ago.
    Yet some people wonder if the revolution in travel has gone too far. A price has been paid, they say, for the conquest (征服) of time and distance. Travel is something to be enjoyed, not endured (忍受). The boat offers leisure and time enough to appreciate the ever-changing sights and sounds of a journey. A journey by train also has a special charm about it. Lakes and forests and wild, open plains sweeping past your carriage window create a grand view in which time and distance mean nothing. On board a plane, however, there is just the blank blue of the sky filling the narrow windows of the airplane. The soft lighting, in-flight films and gentle music make up the only world you know, and the hours progress slowly.
    Then there is the time spent being ‘processed’ at a modern airport. People are conveyed like robots along walkways; baggage is weighed, tickets produced, examined and produced yet again before the passengers move to another waiting area. Journeys by rail and sea take longer, yes, but the hours devoted to being ‘processed’ at departure and arrival in airports are luckily absent. No wonder, then, that the modern high-speed trains are winning back passengers from the airlines.
    Man, however, is now a world traveler and cannot turn his back on the airplane. The working lives of too many people depend upon it; whole new industries have been built around its design and operation. The holiday-maker, too, with limited time to spend, patiently endures the busy airports and the limited space of the flight to gain those extra hours and even days, relaxing in the sun. Speed controls people’s lives; time saved, in work or play, is the important thing—or so we are told. Perhaps those first horsemen, riding free across the wild, open plains, were enjoying a better world than the one we know today. They could travel at will, and the clock was not their master.
    小题1: What does the writer try to express in Paragraph 1?
    A．Travel by plane has speeded up the growth of villages.
    B．Man has been fond of traveling rather than staying in one place.
    C．The speed of modern travel has made distances relatively short.
    D．The freedom of movement has helped people realize their dreams.
    小题2:How does the writer support the underlined statement in Paragraph 2?
    A．By giving examples.
    B．By giving instructions.
    C．By analyzing cause and effect.
    D．By following the order of time.
    小题3:According to Paragraph 3, passengers are turning back to modern high-speed trains because ______.
    A．they pay less for the tickets
    B．they feel safer during the travel
    C．they can enjoy higher speed of travel
    D．they don’t have to waste time being ‘processed’
    小题4: What does the last sentence of the passage mean?
    A．They could travel with their master.
    B．They needed the clock to tell the time.
    C．They preferred traveling on horseback.
    D．They could enjoy free and relaxing travel.

    It’s hard not to feel cheated and over-charged when you receive unexpected roaming (漫游) charges while traveling abroad—whether they come from making phone calls or checking e-mails.
    Jeff Gardner received an $ 11,000 bill from Verizon after spending four days in Jamaica. Before the trip, Mr. Gardner, who runs a fly-fishing business in Grayling, Michigan, said he called Verizon to find out what it would cost to use his cellphone for calls and his wireless card to check e-mails while in Jamaica. He said he was told that calls would be about $ 2 a minute and that there would be no extra charges for data as he was on an unlimited plan. The latter part turned out to be wrong.
    “I don’t mind paying a fair amount for fair service, but $11,000 for four days is ridiculous,” said Mr. Gardner, who used his phone carefully and economically on the trip. He also tried to check and send e-mails using his wireless card, but quickly gave up after the e-mails didn’t go through. Still, his Verizon bill said more than 500,000 kilobytes (千字节) of data was delivered while he was in Jamaica, an amount Mr. Gardner said is 100 times what he normally uses in a month.
    As travelers increasingly use smart phones abroad in the same way they do at home—to check e-mails, update Facebook and Twitter and pull up online maps—many are facing costly roaming fees, which providers charge when customers use their phones outside their service area. In fact, roaming charges have gotten so out of hand that the Federal Communications Commission has proposed a plan that would require wireless companies to send their customers a voice or text message when they are approaching their plan’s limit, when they have reached that limit and when they are starting to result in roaming fees.
    小题1:Why did Jeff Gardner call Verizon before his trip to Jamaica?
    A．To hand over his business.
    B．To check his cellphone bill
    C．To find out information about Jamaica.
    D．To find out information about roaming charges.
    小题2:What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?
    A．Extra charges were made for Jeff Gardner’s data delivery.
    B．Jeff Gardner’s calls were charged over $2 per minute.
    C．Jeff Gardner’s plan turned out to be limited.
    D．Jeff Gardner had difficulty delivering data abroad.
    小题3:During the trip, Jeff Gardner______.
    A．was careless with phone use
    B．delivered no more data than at home
    C．received quite poor e-mail services
    D．frequently used his wireless card to send e-mails
    小题4:What should wireless companies do according to the Federal Communications Commission?
    A．Make customers know when they’re outside their service area.
    B．Get customers informed when they’re near the limit of their plan.
    C．Stop serving customers when they’ve reached their plan’s limit.
    D．Limit some services to reduce the amount of roaming charges abroad.

    There used to be a term that was used to describe someone who drove their vehicles down the highway while staring at the scenery. These drivers just drove slowly, taking their own sweet time, as if they had nothing to do and no place in particular to go. Thus, the expression, “Sunday driver”, was born. Consequently, a Sunday driver wasn’t necessarily someone who was driving on a Sunday. A person could be a Sunday driver any day of the week. The expression simply meant that the person was an obstacle to other drivers who were in a hurry.
    The expression probably came about because there was a time when people would often decide to go for a relaxing drive on Sunday afternoons. A Sunday drive was a common occurrence years ago and especially on a nice warm sunny day. There were no stores open on Sunday because of the “blue laws”, so you needed to be sure and fill up the gas tank and make any other needed purchases before Sunday arrived.
    Some of the states had strict blue laws that even prohibited some activities on Sunday. However, there is still a lot to be said for the slow, gentle life that once existed. It was a time when very few people worked on Sunday except for those professions vital to our well-being such as those in the medical profession. It was a day “set apart” that was used to rest, visit with neighbors and friends, or maybe go to grandma’s house for supper. Today there are many who return to work and children who go back to school overly tired on Monday due to a lack of rest. Perhaps there would be less stress related illnesses if we really kept Sunday as a day of rest.
    小题1:According to the passage, “Sunday driver” refers to the person who ______.
    A．drives his vehicle on Sundays
    B．drives for fun and relaxation
    C．enjoys a weekend break
    D．makes a Sunday purchase
    小题2:What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph l mean?
    A．Sunday drivers affected traffic flow
    B．Sunday drivers drove too slowly
    C．Sunday drivers increased traffic speed
    D．Sunday drivers felt hatred for other drivers
    小题3:What kind of activity was strictly prohibited on Sunday by the laws?
    A．Visiting with neighbors and friends.
    B．Going to the hospital to see a doctor.
    C．Having a family get-together.
    D．Selling goods or services.
    小题4:According to the author, Sunday rest would help people______.
    A．earn a lot more money
    B．experience less pressure
    C．keep pace with society
    D．improve academic performance

    Our interpersonal skills have a great effect on success in our daily lives. This appears not only in the workplace where we can make more money or enjoy our job more, but also shows itself in marriage, raising a family and the ability to reach goals in almost every area of life. Interpersonal skills come into play when our flight is cancelled and we need to make other arrangements. They come into play when a marriage is threatened by financial challenges or infidelity(不忠).
    Our communication skills even matter when we are in traffic and we need to make a decision about how to respond to other drivers. Communicating with others becomes inseparable from having a good day, or a bad day not only in how we begin communication, but in how we react to the communications of others who are having a difficult time.
    It can make a difference in saving a marriage or getting a divorce, celebrating a rise or getting fired, and even having your eggs cooked as the way you like at the local restaurant. Many wise men and women have stressed the importance of dealing with others in a skillful manner.
    Getting feedback(反馈意见) from others can be of great value in improving our interpersonal communication skills. Often, however, others are not skilled at giving feedback. When we get negative results, they rarely include the details we need in order to improve our interpersonal skills.
    Since life improves so much with greater communication skills, getting feedback and an opportunity to improve would be not only life-saving for pilots, but labor-saving for the rest of us. Contact Alice Aspen March for a free consultation today and see how you might improve your communication skills, or learn more about The Attention Factor.
    小题1:Which of the following can greatly influence our success in our daily life according to the passage?
    A．The education we receive.B．The skills of making a decision.
    C．The nationality of our friends.D．Our interpersonal skills.
    小题2:What does the underlined word “They” refer to in the last sentence of Paragraph 1?
    A．Family members
    B．Interpersonal skills.
    C．Husband and wife
    D．Challenges of lack of money.
    小题3:Why does the author mention “traffic” and “other drivers” in the second paragraph?
    A．Just to call our attention
    B．To tell us the importance of communication skills.
    C．To lead us to think of a sad scene
    D．To help us not to forget traffic is very important.
    小题4:Which of the following is true?
    A．Getting feedback from others can be valueless in improving our interpersonal skills.
    B．Even if we have good communication skills, we will surely not be able to improve our life.
    C．If we pay enough money, we can get some advice from Alice Aspen March.
    D．Many wise people think communicating with others needs skills.
    小题5:What’s the best title of the passage?
    A．The Attention Factor
    B．The Problems of Marriage
