【题目】根据短文内容,选择最佳答案。
One of the most recent social changes taking place in the world is social networking. Social networking has been in existence for at least 150 years, and probably longer than that. In the times before the invention of the computer and the World Wide Web (WWW), social networking was done in person. People who had similar likes and interests would gather together to share experiences, make new friends, and improve their businesses.
On the Internet, social networking websites made their first appearances during the late 1990s. The first major social networking website in the United States was MySpace. MySpace allowed its users to exchange messages, share pictures, and make new friends in a way that was never thought of in the past. With MySpace, people who did not go out much could reach out to others from their own homes.
In 2004, Facebook was created. It was first a website created for use by Harvard University's students and teachers, but it soon expanded to include just about everyone. It is now larger than some of the largest companies in the world. It is a website that is changing all the time. Facebook has completely changed the way people stay connected with each other and the rest of the world. The way it works is simple. Users can set up a new account (账户) easily. All a new user needs is an email address to start. Once a person has created an account and his friend also has his own Facebook page, he can invite his friend by sending a request out to him. Once you get started, making new friends will come easily.
(1)What can we learn about social networking?
A.It is not a new development.
B.It made World Wide Web famous.
C.It appeared because of the computers.
D.It helped people develop new interests.
(2)What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A.MySpace is less famous than Facebook.
B.MySpace greatly changed people's lives.
C.MySpace led to the appearance of Facebook.
D.MySpace was improved by Harvard University's students.
(3)What do new users of Facebook need to create an account?
A.An email address.
B.His friend's help.
C.High-speed network.
D.His friend's Facebook page.
(4)What does the passage mainly tell us?
A.The way to be a Facebook user.
B.The importance of social networking.
C.Two important social networking websites.
D.The differences between MySpace and Facebook.

【题目】阅读理解
Some people will do just about anything to save money. And I am one of them. Take my family's last vacation. It was my six-year-old son's winter break form school, and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a week-long trip. The flight was overbooked, and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day. I had meetings in New York, so I had to get back. But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay. I took my nine-month-old and took off for home.
The next day, my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight. Yes, I encouraged—okay, ordered—them to wait it out at the airport, to "earn" more Delta Dollars. Our total take: $1,600. Not bad, huh?
Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either. But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar. And these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up.
I've made a living looking for the best deals and exposing (揭露) the worst tricks. I have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade. I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do what I believe in.
I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money's worth. I'm also tightfisted when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants. But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut. It keeps its shape longer, and it's the first thing people notice. And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture. Quality lasts.
(1)Why did Delta give the author's family credits?
A.They had early bookings.
B.They took a later flight.
C.Their flight had been delayed.
D.Their flight had been cancelled.
(2)What can we learn about the author?
A.She is interested in cheap products.
B.She seldom makes a compromise(折衷).
C.She is very strict with her children.
D.She rarely misses a good deal.
(3)What does the author do?
A.She's a teacher.
B.She's a housewife.
C.She's a businesswoman.
D.She's a media person.
(4)What does the author want to tell us?
A.How to spend money wisely.
B.How to reserve airline seats.
C.How to expose bad tricks.
D.How to make a business deal.

【题目】根据短文内容,选择最佳答案。
Living among trees, plants and flowers can fill your life with beauty. And if you are a woman, it can also help you live longer. Researchers found that women who live in homes surrounded by plants appear to have lower death rates than women who live in areas with fewer plants.
Researchers at Harvard University's T.H. Chan School of Public Health reported the finding. They looked at the information from one of the largest and oldest investigations of the women's health: the Nurse's Health Study. It began 40 years ago. It now has information on nearly 200,000 women.
For the new study, the team looked at the death rates of more than 100,000 women between the years 2000 and 2008. Then the researchers compared the death rates of these women to the plants around their homes. The researchers also considered other things, such as the age of the women, money they earn and race. They also looked at whether or not the women smoked.
The study found that the death rate among women who lived in the greenest spaces was 12% lower than those from the least green areas. The researchers were surprised to find such a strong connection between high vegetation levels and low death rates.
The study suggested that living among trees, flowers and other plants lowered levels of depression. Researchers said women in greener areas spent more time with other people and exercised more. It is common knowledge that plants can help the environment in many ways. The new finding also suggested ways to the government and the city planners to grow even healthier living areas.
(1)How did the researchers divide the women in the study?
A.By their money.
B.By their different ages.
C.By their habit of smoking.
D.By the number of plants around them.
(2)It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ________.
A.more and more women will plant trees
B.it will be a must to build houses with trees around
C.the new finding may influence future living conditions
D.the government will take action to make women healthier
(3)What is the best title of this passage?
A.Women should grow flowers at home
B.Plants may help women live longer
C.Women must exercise more to keep healthy
D.The bad environment causes high death rates

【题目】Have you ever wondered why birds sing?Maybe you thought that they were just happy.After all,you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.

Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy.However,they sing most of the time for a very different reason.Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.

Do you know what a “territory” is?A territory is an area that an animal,usually the male,claims (声称) as its own.Only he and his family are welcome there.No other families of the same species are welcome.Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome.If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you,you might shout.Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.

If so,you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him.A bird does the same thing.But he expects an outsider almost any time,especially at nesting season.So he is screaming all the time,whether he can see an outsider or not.This screaming is what we call a bird’s song,and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.

Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.

You can see that birds have a language all their own.Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.

1What is a bird’s “territory”?

A. A place where families of other species are not accepted.

B. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.

C. An area for which birds fight against each other.

D. An area which a bird considers to be its own.

2Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?

A. Because they want to invite more friends.

B. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.

C. Because they want to find outsiders around.

D. Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.

3How does the writer explain birds’ singing?

A. By describing birds’ daily life.

B. By reporting experiment results.

C. By comparing birds with human beings.

D. By telling.
