4.Our room was on the second floor but you could still hear the roar of the ocean and see the stars at night.I used to take long walks along the water.The food in town was wonderful and the people were very friendly.The area was very quiet and peaceful,and fairly deserted.
The last evening of our vacation,however,we all heard strange footsteps following closely behind us as we were walking up to our room in the holiday centre.We turned around and noticed a fairly young man moving very rapidly across the beach and getting closer to us.He was tall and wore a baseball cap.We didn't have any cell phones on us.I never saw Dad as worried as he was then and knew that something was terribly wrong.The sense of fear started to overwhelm Mom and me.We had had such a good time in town.Now,the night was rapidly turning into a dangerous situation.
We could hear the man's footsteps getting closer.Dad's face was almost pale.The so-called intruder (侵入者) had moved nearer and nearer when all of a sudden,the nearby vending (自动贩卖) machine started going crazy and spitting out cans of soda!The noise actually scared the intruder and he ran out of sight.My parents were shaking,but we all turned around to see who had put money into the vending machine downstairs,and actually saved us,but no one was around at all.Not a soul.
It's one vacation I will never forget.

14.What do Tom Sawyer and jumping frogs have in common?Stories about both of them were created by one mans:Mark Twain.Born Samuel Langhorne Clemens,Mark Twain was his pen name.When Twain was 4,his family moved to Hannibal,Missouri,lying on the west bank of the Mississippi.Twain grew up there and was attracted greatly with life along the river-the steamboats,the big wooden boats,and the people who worked on them.
The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras Country is one of Twain's best-loved short stories,and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is one of his most famous novels.Both these works are celebrated by events held during National Tom Sawyer Days.There's also a fence-painting competition to see who can paint the fastest.The idea for this competition comes from a scene in Torn Sawyer,in which Torn has been told to paint the fence in front of the house be lives in.It's a beautiful day,and he would rather be doing anything else.As his friends walk by,he persuades them to paint with him for fun,and they all join in the"fun".By the end of the day,the fence has three coats of paint!
Although the story of Tom Sawyer is not true,it's based on fact.If you go to Hannibal,you'll see the white fence,which still stands at Twain's boyhood home.

15.About ten years ago,a young and very successful businessman named Josh was traveling down a Chicago neighborhood street.He was going a bit too fast in his shiny,black,12cylinder Jaguar XKE,which was only two months old.
He was watching for kids rushing out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something.As his car passed,no child came out,but a brick sailed out and-WHUMP!-it hit the Jag's shiny black side door!SCREECH…!!!!Immediately Josh stopped the car,jumped out,seized the kid and pushed him up against a parked car.He shouted at the kid,"What was that all about and who are you?Just what are you doing?!"Building up a head of steam,he went on."That's my new car and that brick you threw is going to cost you a lot of money.Why did you throw it?"

"Thank you,sir.And God bless you,"the grateful child said to him.He then watched the younger brother push him down the sidewalk toward their home.

9.You know how wonderful you are,and you know that others know how wonderful you are,but what do you do when admiration crosses over the line into jealousy(嫉妒)?For most teens there will come a day when you realize that one of your friends is jealous and that this jealousy is hurting your friendship.When this happens it can seem like there is nothing that you can do,but the good news is that there is.Don't let jealousy spoil your relationships.Deal with it confidently and you might be back to normal much sooner than you think.
It can be hard to walk up to a friend and ask them what the problem is,but if you want to save your friendship you'll have to do just that.Don't approach them and ask why they are jealous of you unless of course you want to appear totally conceited (逞能),just take some time alone with them and let them know that you've been feeling like there's been something coming between you.If they refuse to respond,then use the opportunity to explain how you have been feeling.Chances are that something you say will strike a nerve and your friend will open up as well.
When you figure out what is annoying your friend,ask him or her what (s)he thinks would make the situation better.If,for example,(s)he says that (s)he feels like (s)he doesn't get to spend any time with you because of your being off with your new friends from the swim team then maybe you could invite her along the next time or block off one day a week for just the two of[.Com]you.Remember,though,that whatever solution you decide on should be a compromise(妥协).Don't limit your own talents or opportunities simply because your friend is unhappy.Try instead to include him or her in your new life and see how that works out.
Even the best of friendships can be ruined by jealousy.This destructive emotion is rarely productive and can turn best friends into worst enemies.Before taking extreme action,chat with your jealous friend to see if the two of you can work out a compromise.If you can't,be prepared to know exactly how far you will go to keep your friend and how far you won't.
33.What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 2?A
A.How to solve the problem of jealousy.
B.Why we need to solve the problem of jealousy.
C.How to explain your jealousy to your friends.
D.Why it is hard to deal with the problem of jealousy.
34.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?D
A.There's always a solution to solve the problem of jealousy.
B.Jealousy can turn best friends into worst enemies.
C.You should go a long way with your friend to work out a solution
D.You may lose a friend to keep your own gifts,chances or self-development.
35.This passage is mainly intended forC.
A.female readers      
B.students   
C.teenagers       
D.best friends.

14.Recently,university students around the world were asked to volunteer in a global experiment called Unplugged.It was designed to see how young people would react if they were asked to observe a total media ban by unplugging all forms of media devices for 24 hours.
Unplugged is being run by Dr Roman Gerodimos,a lecturer in Communication and Journalism at Bournemouth University.During the experiment,Dr Gerodimos said there were already  signs of how much the exercise affected volunteers.He said:"They're reporting withdrawal symptoms,overeating,feeling nervous,isolated and disconnected."
During their 24-hour test,three of the experiment's participants were followed around by a BBC reporter plus cameraman.They were asked to write down 100 lines about their day offline,but of course,they all waited until the next day when they had access to their laptops.
Elliot Day wrote:"Today,my whole morning routine was thrown up into the air.Despite being  aware of the social importance of the media,I was surprised by how empty my life felt without the radio or newspapers."
From Caroline Scott,we read:"I didn't expect it,but being deprived of the media for 24 hours resulted in my day-to-day activities becoming so much harder to carry out than usual…I didn't break out in a cold sweat like our lecturer expected us all to,but It's not something l would like to do again!"
And Charlotte Gay wrote:"I have to say the most difficult item for me to be without has been  my  mobile;not  only is it a social device,it's  my main access point of communication."
Earlier in the year,a UK government study found that in the UK we spend about half our waking hours using the media,often plugged into several things at once.So,with technology continuing to develop at an alarming rate,how much time will you set aside for sleep in the future?
71.What can we learn about the volunteers?B
 A.Volunteers didn't write down about their day offline.
 B.Volunteers weren't allowed to use any media for 24 hours.
 C.Volunteers  were followed around by Dr Roman Gerodimos.
 D.Only volunteers in the UK took part in Unplugged experiment.
72.Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the participants'feelings?D
 A.Anxious.  B.Lonely  C.Bored.   D.Despaired.
73.Which of the following is true of Caroline Scott?C
 A.The media ban affected his temperature.
 B.His work went on smoothly without the media.
 C.His work was carried on hard without the media.
 D.His life was empty without the radio or newspapers.
74.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A
 A.People should use the media devices reasonably.
 B.People can easily survive the media devices addict.
 C.People can spend more time sleeping in the future.
 D.People spend about half the time using the media devices.
75.The text is most probably a.C
 A.newspaper ad      B.book review
 C.news report       D.science fiction story.
