18.Perhaps you have heard a lot about the Internet,but what is it,do you know?The Internet is a network.It uses the telephone to join millions of computers together around the world.
Maybe that doesn't sound very interesting.But when you've joined to the Internet,there are lots and lots of things you can do.You can send E-mails to your friends,and they can get them in a few seconds.You can also do with all kinds of information on the World Wide Web (WWW).

9.Have you ever met the situation where you kept thinking that there are opportunities,or chances,which are better than your current one?This is the syndrome(综合征) when you are looking at the other side of the grass and think that the grass is greener on the other side and is also what I call the"greener grass"syndrome.
Why are you like this?Uncertainty and curiosity play a big part in creating the"greener grass"syndrome.If you have this syndrome,you are likely to miss a lot of things you have now.When you are always focusing on other opportunities,sometimes you may waste the opportunity right in front of you.
So what can you do to treat the"greener grass"syndrome?Just remember:the grass always starts out a nice and shiny green,but will begin to wear a bit with use.Then,it still needs to be maintained in order to stay a nice shade of green.So as for your jobs,the first thing to do is recognize that your current job is your best choice right now.Try to focus on"what is"instead of"what if".Secondly,always stick to your job,no matter which side you are at.Last but not least,always do your best in your current job.In conclusion,it is important for you to choose a side,and make the best.
24.Which one of the following thoughts is Not the"greener grass syndrome"?B
A.Students studying abroad must live a much more relaxing life than us.
B.I am better than I used to be.
C.What if I were a boy
D.If I could just lose 10pounds,I would feel better.
25.How can people deal with the"green grass"syndrome?A
A.Stick to whatever side you are at.
B.Just ignore the dulled green grass
C.Seek for the best choice.
D.Focus on"what if"
26.What is the purpose of this passage?C
A.To introduce a common medical syndrome.
B.To discuss ways to focus on different opportunities.
C.To persuade people to make the best of what they have.
D.To show people different ways to make the grass greener.
27.How is the passage organized?C
A.Opinion-Description-Discussion
B.Comparison-Argument-Explanation

6.Teachers and parents usually call attention to the pictures when they read storybooks to preschool child.But a new study suggests that calling attention to the words and letters on the page may lead to better readers.
The two-year study compared children who were read in this way in class with children who were not.Those whose teachers most often discussed the print showed clearly higher skills in reading,spelling and understanding.These results were found one year and even two years later.
 Shayne Piasta,an assistant professor of teaching and learning at Ohio State University,was a n author of the study.She says most preschool teachers would find this method manageable and would need only a small change in the way they teach.They already read story-books in class.The only diff erence would be increased attention to the printed text."If you get children to pay attention to letters and words,it makes sense that they will do better at word recognition and spelling."But she says research suggests that very few parents and teachers do this in a systematic way.
   More than 300 children aged four and five were observed in classrooms.They came from poor families and were below average in their language skills.For thirty weeks,the children took part in a program called Project STAR-Sit Together and Read.The project is based in Ohio State.It tests the short-term and long-term results of reading regularly to preschool children in their classrooms.
    There are different ways that adults can talk to children about print.They can point to a letter and discuss it,and even trace the shape with a finger.They can point out a word and discuss the meaning of the print or how the words tell the story.And they can talk about the organization of the print--for instance,showing how words are written left to right in English.
56.What do we know about the ways preschool children are usually taught?B
A.Preference is given to the shape of the letters and the organization of the print.
B.More attention is paid to the picture,with words and letters being ignored.
C.The focus of the teaching is on bringing them up to be good readers.
D.Equal attention is paid to the texts and the pictures.
57.Shayne Piasta suggested that preschool teachers shouldC.
A.read storybooks regularly in class.
B.learn to manage their class well
C.often discuss the printed words and letters  
D.search for a better method of reading
58.The children who joined in Project STAR wereA.
A.very poor in their reading          
B.mostly cleverer than others
C.especially good at language skills   
D.worried about reading problems
59.Which of the following is TRUE about the study on language skills of preschool children?D
A.Many teachers want to change their way of teaching preschool children.
B.Attention of the pictures has made the children uninterested in reading.
C.Teachers are often prevented from taking different approaches to language teaching.
D.Project STAR aims to research into the results of reading books to preschool children in the classro om.
60.The last paragraph mainly tells usC.
A.why we should discuss the meaning of the print 
B.the shape of the letter is the focus of teaching
C.how we can teach children about print   
D.English words are usually written from left to right.

13.If you thought it was cold where you are at the moment,then a visit to the Russian village of Oymyakon might change your mind.
With the average temperature for January of 2013standing at-50℃,it's no wonder that the village is the coldest place in the world with people always living.The coldest ever temperature recorded in Oymyakon was-71.2℃.And despite its terrible winters,in June,July and August temperatures over 30℃are not uncommon.
In Oymyakon most homes still burn coal and wood for heat.Nothing grows there so people eat reindeer(驯鹿) meat and horse meat.The local people work as reindeer-keepers,hunters and ice-fishermen.Here there is a single shop and there is only a school,which only shuts if temperatures fall below-52℃.
There are few modern conveniences in the village.Many buildings still have outdoor toilets.When coal deliveries are irregular,the power station starts burning wood.If the power stops,the town shuts down in about five hours,and the pipes freeze and break.
What troubles people living in Oymyakon in their everyday life includes pen ink freezing,and glasses freezing to people's faces.Locals are said to leave their cars running all day for fear of not being able to start them again.Another problem caused by the cold temperatures is burying dead bodies.The earth must first have thawed(解冻) enough in order to dig it,so a fire is lit for several hours.Hot coals are then pushed to the side and a several-inch-deep hole is dug.The process is repeated for several days until the hole is deep enough to bury the coffin(棺材).
Travel companies offer tourists the chance to visit the village and experience life in the freezing conditions.

60.What's the author's purpose in writing the first paragraph?C
A.To state how unique the village Oymyakon is.
B.To compare different ideas on coldness.
C.To lead in the topic for discussion.
D.To advertise for tourists to Oymyakon.
61.According to the passage,Oymyakon is a village whereA.
A.temperatures vary greatly from season to season
B.people enjoy comfortable living conditions
C.people can enjoy many modern conveniences
D.the lowest temperature in history was recorded in 2013
62.What can we know about the local people of Oymyakon?B
A.Horse meat is their favorite food.
B.Coal and wood are still their main fuels.
C.They don't have tourists in cold months.
D.They don't drive when it is freezing cold.
63.What does Paragraph 5mainly talk about?D
A.The lifestyle of the local people in Oymyakon.
B.The customs of burying dead bodies in Oymyakon.
C.Local people's ways of dealing with their daily problems.
D.Daily problems caused by coldness in Oymyakon.

10.The truth was written all over her face.The eyes are the window to the soul.From those sayings,you would think that we could read faces.In fact,people tend to overestimate their ability to do it.
Most of us can't distinguish between certain expressions without contextual clues.In one study,participants were unable to tell whether faces in photos were showing pain or pleasure about a quarter of the time.In another,when people watched silent videos of the same person experiencing pain and faking pain,they couldn't tell which was which.
And yet,as bad as we are at reading expressions,we jump to all kinds of conclusions based on people's faces.We might scoff at the ancient physiognomy-assessing character on the basis of facial feature-but we unknowingly practice it daily.Recent research shows that while there's practically no evidence that faces reveal character,we nonetheless behave as if certain features signal certain traits.People with typically"female"facial features seem more trustworthy; those with lower eyebrows appear more controlling.In another study,people were ready to decide whether an unfamiliar face should be trusted after looking at it for just 200 milliseconds.Even when given a chance to look longer,they rarely changed their mind.
Such judgments can defy logic.Subjects playing a trust game invested more money with a player who had a trustworthy face than with one who didn't-even when the two players had the same fame.Another study reported that judges needed less evidence to sentence a person with an untrustworthy face.And a researcher focusing on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict found that a Palestinian peace offering was more likely to be accepted by Jewish Israeli if it was attributed to a politician with"babyfacedness".
Which brings us to a contradiction?A person's face may not reflect her nature,and yet research finds that specific facial features do seem to influence futures.U.S.Army War College graduates with controlling-looking faces are more likely than their peers to become generals; people with obvious cheekbones,appearing strong and  competent,are more likely to become CEOs of successful companies.This makes a certain sense.If everyone assumes strong-chinned Daniel is an ambitious person,he's more likely to become one.Perhaps by treating others as though their face reveals their character,we motivate them to become the people we assume them to be.
55.Miss Green wants to find a pet shop for her dog while she is on holiday.She is most likely to choose the shop's owner withB.
A.a strong chin                    
B."female"facial features
C.low eyebrows                 
D.obvious cheekbones
56.Which of the following is TRUE according to the author?A
A.People rush to judgments based on facial features.
B.People are better at telling"pain"than"delight"from faces.
C.People consider it instructive to study the ancient physiognomy.
D.People would change their first impression if given more chances.
57.In Paragraph 4,the examples are used to showD.
A.facial features reveal minds
B.trust is essential in big issues
C.baby faces are more trustworthy
D.decisions are easily in fluenced by faces
58.According to the last paragraph,the author believesD.
A.facial features mirror character
B.people's behavior is contradictory
C.people won't be judged by appearance
D.facial features can influence eventual character.

7.My mother loves flowers.As soon as warm weather comes around,you will find her planting,watering and weeding over everything.For many years we lived next door to each other,and she spent as much time in my garden as she did her own.After the flowers became plentiful each summer,she would cut colorful bouquets(花束)to enjoy inside the house-both hers and mine.I would often come home from work and find a beautiful arrangement of fresh flowers on my coffee table.
Shortly before Christmas one year,a local flower shop offered a bouquetamonth special.It seemed to be a great way to thank her for all of the flowers she had given me through the years.
After the holidays,in early January,I drove her to the flower shop to pick up her first month's bouquet.The small fresh colorful bouquet would hardly fill a small vase.
I was so embarrassed.However,after we returned home,she began to arrange the flowers she had received."Mom,I'm sorry,"I told her."I can't believe how skimpy that bouquet is."She looked at me and smiled."It's okay,"she said."It allows me to better enjoy the beauty of each one."
Mom's words helped me to realize something bigger and more important-when we have too many good things,we often fail to enjoy the beauty of each one.
Thanks,mom,for helping me understand that less is sometimes more.

8.Disposing (处理) of waste has been a problem since humans started producing it.As more and more people choose to live close together in cities,the waste disposal problem becomes increasingly difficult.
During the eighteenth century,it was usual for several neighboring towns to get together to select a faraway spot as a dump site.People would transport household rubbish,rotted wood and old possessions to the site.Regularly some of the trash was burned and the rest was buried.The unpleasant sights and smells caused no problem because nobody lived close by.Factories and some other industrial sites also had waste to be disposed of.Those located on rivers often just poured the unwanted remains into the water.Others built huge burners with chimneys to deal with the problem.
Several facts make these choices unacceptable to modern society.The first problem is space.Dumps(垃圾场),are most needed in heavily populated areas.Such areas rarely have empty land suitable.Farm areas are refusing to accept rubbish from elsewhere,cheap land in major city areas to dispose wastes is nonexistent(不存在的).Awareness of pollution dangers has resulted in more strict rules of waste disposal.Pollution of rivers,ground water,land and air is a price people can no longer pay to get rid of waste.The amount of waste,however,continues to grow.
Recycling efforts have become commonplace,and many towns require their people to take part.Even the most efficient recycling programs,however,can hope to deal with only about 50percent of a city's reusable waste,so more people should be involved in recycling programs.
28.The most suitable title for this passage would beD.
A.Places for Disposing of Waste
B.Waste Pollution Dangers
C.Ways of Getting Rid of Waste
D.Waste Disposal Problem
29.During the 18th century,people disposed of waste in many ways except forB.
A.burying it  
B.recycling it
C.burning it  
D.throwing it into rivers
30.What can be inferred(推断)from the third paragraph?C
A.Farm areas will continue accepting waste from the city.
B.There is cheap land to bury waste in modern society.
C.It is difficult to find space to bury waste in modern society.
D.Ways to deal with waste in modern society stay the same.
31.The main purpose of writing this article is toA.
A.draw people's attention to waste management
B.warn people of the pollution dangers
C.call on people to take part in recycling programs
D.tell people a better way to get rid of the waste.
