18．Which animal has the fastest snapping jaw （突然合住的颚）？If you're guessing a shark or perhaps a larger animal，you'll have to think smaller．The trap-jaw ant，which lives in Central and South America，moves its mouth parts at 35to 63meters per second．Another way to think about this is that the ant's jaws close at 125to 233kilometers per hour．That's 2，300times faster than the blink of an eye．
Scientists were able to measure the amazing jaw speed using high-speed video techniques．Sheila Patek，a biologist，says the key is that the jaws have a springy （有弹性的） system，which is critical in getting explosive （爆发性的） speeds．
Consider a bow and arrow．If you try to throw an arrow with your arm，it won't go very far．If you use a bow，elastic energy stored in the bow is freed almost immediately when you let go of the arrow with your finger．That's exactly what really fast organisms are doing．
Maybe even more amazing than how fast these ants grab food or even enemies is how they use this same energy to move．As the ant closes its jaws，it uses them to push off the ground-all faster than the eye can see without slow motion video．A snap of the jaw can send an ant up to 8.3centimeters into the air．That's like someone who is 1.7meters jumping 13meters high!Not only can they quickly escape from enemies，but often a group of ants will start jumping all at once．It would be hard for their enemies to grab just one．

33．The fast speed of the trap-jaw ants'jaws lies inB．
A．their light bodies
B．their springy systems
C．their living environment
D．the length of their jaws
34．What does the passage use"a bow and arrow"as an example to show？C
A．How an arrow gets so much energy to fly．
B．Why the trap-jaw ants have a springy system．
C．Why the trap-jaw ants'jaws move so fast．
D．How a bow and arrow works．
35．According to the passage，the trap-jaw ants'jaws keep them safe becauseD．
A．they can catch their enemies easily with their jaws
B．their jaws make them difficult to recognize
C．their jaws help them to find food easily
D．their jaws help them to escape from their enemies．

3．A few cups of green tea each day may help prevent heart disease，Greek researchers said on Wednesday．A study published in the European Journal of Cardiovascular （心血管的） Prevention showed further evidence of the potential health benefits from tea already linked to a reduced risk of a range of cancers and other conditions．
The study showed that green tea improves blood flow and the ability of arteries （动脉） to relax，said Charalambos Vlachopoulos，an expert at the Athens Medical School in Greece who worked on the study．
Other studies have shown that black tea also has benefits for cardiovascular health．
The Greek team said they believed green tea might be even better because it had higher quantities of beneficial substances called flavonoids （类黄酮）-some of which are lost in the oxidation （氧化） process that black tea undergoes．
Flavonoids are also found in cocoa，tomatoes and grapes．"A couple of cups a day would probably be good for people，"Vlachopoulos said．"This is the first study to show these effects for green tea．"
The researchers gave 14healthy volunteers either green tea，coffee or hot water and then measured the function of endothelial cells （内皮细胞）．These cells help relax arteries and ease blood flow．"What is important is these effects are evident within 30minutes，"Vlachopoulos said．
The measurements taken 30，90and 120minutes following consumption showed an almost immediate benefit among people who had drunk green tea，he said．While the researchers looked only at a short-term effect，Vlachopoulos said the team's studies suggest the protection is long-lasting．
"Green tea is consumed less in the Western world than black tea，but it could be more beneficial，"he said．
32．What would be the best title for the passage？B
A．Benefits from Black Tea
B．Green Tea Protects Against Heart Disease
C．Different Kinds of Tea
D．Green Tea Reduces the Risk of Cancer
33．According to the study，green tea can do the following EXCEPTB．
A．improve blood flow
B．increase the oxidation rate of flavonoids
C．help relax arteries
D．benefit cardiovascular health
34．Which of the following statements is TRUE？A
A．Green tea contains more flavonoids than black tea．
B．Green tea is better than black tea because it has been processed．
C．Vlachopoulos's study is based on many years'research．
D．Vlachopoulos's study shows the effects of Green tea are not evident in short time．
35．We can learn from the passage thatD．
A．14volunteers with heart disease joined in the experiment
B．it takes an hour for green tea to take effect
C．Westerners prefer green tea to black tea
D．green tea has a long-lasting effect according to Vlachopoulos．

13．You may have experienced the annoyance of being fined because of parking illegally or finding your car towed away（拖走）after leaving it parked somewhere for a couple of minutes．But now a high-tech car sticker that's designed to be stuck to a car's windscreen could help motorists avoid such a situation．
The TowStop sticker sends a text message to a driver when touched by a traffic policeman，to allow motorists to send a reply and give them time to move their cars immediately．Frankfurt-based IT consultant，Daniel Kalliontzis，came up with the idea and is raising money to put his￡43sticker into production．
Car owners can put the sticker inside their car's windscreen，having set it up with key information，such as their phone number．The slim design will include a sensor（传感器）that，when touched by a traffic policeman，will send a text message warning a driver of a possible fine．The driver could then type a reply for the policeman using a smartphone，which will appear on the sticker's screen．
The smart sticker system will rely on the good will of traffic policemen and in a way，a German law．The law states：an officer has to choose the most efficient and inexpensive way for the car owner to remove the vehicle．It could be cheaper for the government to call the driver than to tow his car．
Mail Online asked the Department of Transport whether the sticker could be used in the UK in a similar way．A spokesman said，"In England there is no legal duty to warn the motorist before issuing the ticket．However，a policeman does have the discretion not to issue a ticket if he doesn't think the situation is that bad or he just wants to issue a warning．"
So far，Mr．Kalliontzis has raised just over￡2，362of his￡39，381goal．If he manages to raise the money，the stickers will be shipped in June 2015．But it appears that car owners using the smart system could get some unnecessary warning messages，because anyone could touch the smart sticker．
28．The author wrote the third paragraph toA．
A．explain how a smart car sticker works
B．advise drivers to buy a car sticker
C．show the importance of a sensor
D．tell drivers how to park a car
29．We may infer from the text that in BritainB．
A．car owners don't have to worry about a parking ticket
B．smart car stickers wouldn't work as well as in Germany
C．traffic policemen prefer to call a driver rather than tow his car
D．the Department of Transport thinks highly of smart car stickers
30．The underlined word"discretion"in Paragraph 5can best be replaced by"C"．
A．trouble
B．pressure
C．freedom
D．opportunity
31．What would be the best title for the text？D
A．Daniel Kalliontzis-a great inventor
B．Environment-friendly car stickers
C．Parking systems in Europe
D．End of the parking ticket？

18．Dear Aunty，
I work at a supermarket，and another girl and I share tasks we must finish before leaving．But she takes half an hour to do something I can do in ten minutes．She always has a story to tell me and stops working when she does．My boss is angry at both of us，but It's not my fault．I don't want to rat on her，but what else can I do？
Flustered
Dear Flustered，
Let me propose a better way．Make a log of all the tasks you share，then suggest to your boss that for efficiency your duties could be divided into two separate checklists．If he's reluctant，go to plan B：the next time this girl starts telling you a story，stop working to listen and call your boss over to hear what a great storyteller she is．I'm sure he'll take it from here．
Aunty
Dear Aunty，
I'm a college student in the Philippines who wants to be wise with money．I'm not an economics or business major student and I don't know anything about stocks．But I really want to buy assets and invest．I receive about 15，000pesos（比索）every school term from my education plan．I don't have any idea how I should spend it．I don't want to just buy new clothes，or hang out with my friends because it would not be wise．I want my money to grow．Please enlighten me．

Being wise with money is the No.1thing to learn．Start with a disciplined and systematic savings plan．When your savings reach a sizeable amount，then you may start investing．In the meantime，invest in yourself by reading up on stock markets and capital markets．Follow the news．Before I started investing during my senior high school years，I had already studied stock market data of the past century as I believe markets tend to repeat themselves．If you master this skill，you will master your reading of the markets．
