4.In 1997,a London researcher came up with a startling idea on how humans would live in the future.Professor Michael Batty,a widely known urban planner,summed it up in one phrase-"The Computable City".By 2050,he says,there will be a convergence(集中) of computers and communication technologies,with highways and smart buildings connected via the Internet in new kinds of vast information infrastructures(基础设施)."Everything around us will be some form of computer,"he wrote.
Take the old Spanish port city of Santander as an example.After an?11million  grant  in 2011,over 12,000sensors(传感器) have been set up,recording everything from air pollution levels to free parking spaces.
Streetlights now automatically get dark when no one is around,while rubbish bins give notice to collectors when they're full.These advances save local authorities about 25% on electricity bills and 20% on waste management.
In a smart city,the information being produced is vast.Some experts estimate that by 2016we will provide 4.1terabytes(兆兆字节) of information per day per square kilometer of urban land area,which equals more than four average home computer hard drives.
But the Santander centre's purpose is not just to serve the local government.It also makes this sensor data freely available to Santander citizens themselves.Via their smart phones,citizens can access up-to-the-minute information on everything from local traffic jams,parking spaces to pollen counts(花粉量).
Other smart city projects are even more diverse.In Norway,for example,more than 40,000bus stops for local transport company Kolumbus are already making scheduled announcements via Twitter.Passengers can also scan a type of two-dimensional barcode(二维玛) with their smart phones,which can be seen at each stop and leave messages about their experiences.
While in Boston,a system called ShotSpotter is using acoustic sensors to find out the location of gunshots quickly,helping the police reduce crime.

46.We can learn from the first paragraph that the computable cityA.
A.is a highly informational city
B.is a city where computers are seldom used
C.refers to a city someone describes in a novel
D.refers to a city where everything is automatically controlled
47.The underlined word"grant"is closest in meaning toB.
A.imaginary project
B.money aid
C.special permit 
D.policy support
48.According to the passage,in the smart city SantanderD.
A.there is much less air pollution
B.home computers are not needed any more
C.rubbish bins can deal with waste by themselves
D.people can get the newest information on anything
49.When you travel in a smart city,what can help record and keep your experiences?C
A.All the bus stops.
B.The acoustic sensors.
C.Your smart phones.
D.The local government.
50.What would be the best title for this passage?A
A.Smart Cities in Action
B.Automatic Streetlights
C.The Santander Centre
D.Information Infrastructure.

10.I have only once been in trouble with the law.The whole process of being arrested and taken to court was a rather unpleasant experience at the time,but it makes a good story now. What makes it rather disturbing was the arbitrary (随意的) circumstances both of my arrest and my subsequent (随后的) fate in court.
It happened in February about twelve years ago.I had left school a couple of months before that and was not due to go to university until the following October.I was still living at home at the time.
One morning I was in Richmond,a suburb of London near where I lived.I was looking for a temporary job so that I could save up some money to go traveling.As it was a fine day and I was in no hurry,I was taking my time,looking in shop windows,strolling in the park,and sometimes just stopping and looking around me.It must have been this obvious ainilessness that led to my downfall.
It was about half past eleven when it happened.I was just walking out of the local library,having unsuccessfully sought employment there,when I saw a man walking across the road with the obvious intention of talking to me.I thought he was going to ask me the time.Instead,he said he was a police officer and he was arresting me.At first I thought it was some kind of joke.
But then another policeman appeared,this time in uniform,and I was left in no doubt.
'But what for?"I asked.
‘Wandering with intent to commit an arrestable offence,'he said.
‘What offence?'I asked.
'Theft,'he said.
'Theft of what?'I asked.
'Milk bottles,'he said,and with a perfectly straight face too!
'Oh,'I said.
It turned out there had been a lot of petty thefts in the area,particularly that of stealing milk bottles from doorsteps.
Then I made my big mistake.At the time I was nineteen,had long untidy hair,and regarded myself as pan of the sixties''youth counterculture'.As a result,I wanted to appear cool and unconcerned with the incident,so I said,'How long have you been following me?in the most casual and conversational tone I could manage.I thus appeared to them to be quite familiar with this sort of situation,and it confirmed them in their belief that I was a thoroughly disreputable (品行不端的) character.
    A few minutes later a police car arrived.
'Get in the back,'they said.'Put your hands on the back of the front seat and don't move them.'
    They got in on either side of me.It wasn't funny any more.
    At the police station they questioned me for several hours.I continued to try to look worldly and familiar with the situation.When they asked me what I had been doing,I told them I'd been looking for a job.'Aha,'I could see them thinking,'unemployed'.
Eventually,I was officially charged and told to report to Richmond Magistrates'Court the following Monday.Then they let me go.
I wanted to conduct my own defense in court,but as soon as my father found out what had happened,he hired a very good solicitor (律师).We went along that Monday armed with all kinds of witnesses,including my English teacher from school as a character witness.But he was never called on to give evidence.My'trial'didn't get that far.The magistrate (法官) dismissed the case after fifteen minutes.1 was free.The poor police had never stood a chance.The solicitor even succeeded in getting costs awarded against the police.
And so I do not have a criminal record.But what was most shocking at the time was the things my release from the charge so clearly depended on.I had the'right'accent,respectable middle-class parents in court,reliable witnesses,and I could obviously afford a very good solicitor.Given the obscure nature of the charge.I feel sure that if I had come from a different background,and had really been unemployed,there is every chance that I would have been found guilty.While asking for costs to be awarded,my solicitor's case quite obviously revolved (回转) around the fact that I had a'brilliant academic record'.
Meanwhile,just outside the courtroom,one of the policemen who had arrested me was gloomily complaining to my mother that another youngster had been turned against the police.'You could have been a bit more helpful when we arrested you,'he said to me reproachfully (责备地).
What did he mean?Probably that I should have looked outraged (暴怒)and said something like,'Look here,do you know who you're talking to?I am a highly successful student with a brilliant academic record.How dare you arrest me!'Then they,probably,would have apologized perhaps even taken off their caps,and let me on my way.
