A [2015 •哈尔滨六中二模]
Cleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy―they're given after all. Choices can be hard.
I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2 , 300 per cent per year. I'd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old, and I'd been married for a year. I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn't work since most start?ups don't, and that I wasn't sure what to expect. MacKenzie told me I should go for it. As a young boy? I'd been a garage inventor. Id always wanted to be an inventor, and she wan?ted me to follow my passion.
I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people, and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park, listened carefully to me, and fi?nally said, "That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job. " That logic made some sense to me, and he con?vinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice, but ultimately (最后),I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn't think I'd regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.
After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, and I'm proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choices.

A [2015*四川宜宾高三一诊] There were smiling children all the way. Clearly they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favourite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved.
I had always travelled to Malaysia by plane or car, so that was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read The Economist,
It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johor Bahru was just another city like Sin?gapore City, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight, immediately I came alive; I decided to wave back.
From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the wastebasket and decided to join in Mal?aysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.
The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pm. Soon the train pulled in at Butterworth. I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beauti?ful. When my uncle waved with a smile, I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug. I had never done this be?fore. He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face lighted up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.
I looked forward to the return journey.

B [2015 •北京市西城区一模] The Netherlands on Monday introduced its first-ever intelligent bicycle, fitted with electronic devices to help bring down the high accident rate among elderly cyclists in the bicycle-mad country.
Developed for the government by the Netherlands Or?ganization for Applied Scientific Research TN(), the intelli?gent bicycle runs on electricity. A commercial-available bicy?cle is expected to be on the market in the next two years and should sell for from 1,700 to 3,200 euros per bicycle.
The devices on the bike are linked through an on-board computer with a vibrating warning system fitted in the bicycle's saddle and handlebars to warn cyclists of the coming danger.
The saddle vibrates when other cyclists approach from behind, while, the handlebars do the same when barriers appear ahead.
"Accidents often happen when cyclists look behind them or get a fright when they are passed at high speed," said Maurice Kwakkernaat, one of TNO's research scientists involved in the project. "The on-board system technology has already been at work in the car industry," he said.
"More and more elderly people are using a bicycle, not only for short distances, but also for longer distances," Dutch Environment and Infrastructure Minister Melanie Schultz van Haegen told AFP. " This type of bicycle is truly-needed in the Netherlands because it will help us bring down the number of elderly people who are injured every year and allow them to continue to enjoy cycling," she said.
In the Netherlands, bicycles outnumber the population of 17 million by at least one million and there are some 25,000 km of bicycle path in the country. Those statistics are set to grow as more and more people take to two-wheeled trans?port, leading to an increased risk of injury.
Last year, 184 cyclists died in the country, of which 124, or 67 %? were older than 65, according to the Central Statistics Office. The year before, 200 cyclists died, the ma?jority of victims also being elderly.
The current model weighs 25 kilograms but researchers are working on making the on-board system smaller.
5.The intelligent bicycle is aimed to___________
A. protect the environment
B. help reduce traffic pressure
C. popularize the use of bicycles
D. improve safety for elderly cyclists
6.Which part of the intelligent bicycle will vibrate when oth?er cyclists approach it from behind?
A. The saddle.
B. The wheels.
C. The handlebars.
D. The on-board computer.
7. We can learn from the passage that .
A. the elderly ride bicycles wherever they go
B. the elderly are planning to give up cycling
C. the number of elderly cyclists is decreasing
D. the accident rate among elderly cyclists is high
8. Which is the best title for the passage?
