Thirty million people visit Paris every year and when you are standing in a queue at the Louvre waiting to have a look at the Mona Lisa,it is possible to think that each and every one of them is in the same room as you.
But it is possible to see the iconic sites of the City of Lights without falling into the crowded tourists.
My favourite way to enjoy Paris is to
take enough money to last a visit of at least two months. I did this when I was 20. I lived in a poor hotel on Rue St. Jacques around the corner from the Sorbonne and the Jardin du Luxembourg. Surviving on 100 francs a day, I ate baguettes, tomatoes and a jar of mayon-naise. I drank my short blacks while standing at the counter of cafes. I walked everywhere,down the city's grand avenues and up its hid-den old alleyways. I loved every single pover-ty-covered moment of that winter.
I've been back several times since for shorter trips. Each time, Paris offers new joys and discoveries.
An increasingly popular way to get that true Parisienne (巴黎女子的) touch to your trip is to rent an apartment. Brisbane author Nerida Newtown loved the “at home” feeling when she and her family realized a long-term dream by living in Paris for a few months.
If you can't manage a long stay, never fear. Jodie Minus's excitable account of her whirlwind trip to the City of Lights shows how you can get the most out of Paris in a short time. Jenny Stevens managed to show a first-time visitor much of Paris. But now it's over to you: Share your secrets and passions about Paris.
(1) The text is mainly to tell readers________.
[ ]
A．where to visit in Paris
B．some tips on how to visit Paris
C．the writer's experience of visiting Paris
D．the introduction of Paris
(2) Those who want to get tips on short trips in Paris had better contact________.
[ ]
A．the Mona Lisa
B．Jodie Minus
C．Jenny Stevens
D．the writer
(3) According to the text, “ the City of Lights” should refer to“________”.
[ ]
A．the city of Paris
B．the hotel the writer ever lived in
C．a famous tourist attraction in Paris
D．the name of a Paris' street
(4) According to the writer, in order to know better about Paris, visitors________.
[ ]
A．should read Nerida Newtown's novels first
B．had better plan a long trip there
C．must get advice from Jenny Stevens
D．should visit Louvre for the Mona Lisa

In a few years，you might be able to speak Chinese，Korean，Japanese，French，and English-and all at the same time. This sounds incredible，but Alex Waibel，a computer science professor at US's Car-negie Mellon University (CMU) and Germany's University of Karlsruhe，announced last week that it may soon be reality. He and his team have invented software and hardware that could make it far easier for people who speak different languages to understand each other.
One application，called Lecture Translation，can easily translate a speech from one language into an-other. Current translation technologies typically limit speakers to certain topics or a limited vocabulary. Us-ers also have to be trained how to use the programme.
Another machine can send translations of a speech to different listeners depending on what languagethey speak. “It is like having a simultaneous translator right next to you but without disturbing the person next to you，”Waibel said
Prefer to read? So- called Translation Glasses transcribe(转录) the translations on a tiny liquid-crystal display(LCD) screen.
Then there's the Muscle Translator. Electrodes capture the electrical signals from facial muscle movements made naturally when a person is mouthing words. The signals are then translated into speech.The electrodes could be replaced with wireless chips implanted in a person's face，according to research-ers.
During a demonstration held last Thursday in CMU's Pittsburgh campus，a Chinese student named Sang Jun had 11 tiny electrodes attached to the muscles of his cheeks，neck and throat. Then he mouthed-without speaking aloud- a few words in Mandarin(普通话) to the audience. A few seconds later，the phrase was displayed on a computer screen and spoken out by the computer in English and Spanish: “Let me introduce our new prototype.”
This particular instrument，when fully developed，might allow anyone to speak in any number of lan-guages or，as Waibel put it，“to switch your mouth to a foreign language”. “The idea behind the universi-ty's prototypes is to create'good enough' bridges for cross- cultural exchanges that are becoming more common in the world，”Waibel said.
With spontaneous(自发的) translators，foreign drivers in Germany could listen to traffic warnings on the radio; tourists in China could read all the signs and talk with local people;leaders of different coun-tries could have secret talks without any interpreters there.
【小题1】What can't be learned from the text?
| A．The spontaneous translators will help us a lot. |
| B．There is no Muscle Translator in the world now. |
| C．Muscle Translators can translate what you think into speech if you just move your mouth. |
| D．A lecture translation can translate what you said into other languages easily. |
| A．happening at at the same time. | B．happening by itself. |
| C．similar in size. | D．Similar in quality. |
| A．To make cultural exchanges between different countries easier. |
| B．To help students learn foreign languages more easily. |
| C．To make people live in foreign countries more comfortably. |
| D．To help people learn more foreign languages in the future. |
| A．The translator is so good that it can translate any language into the very language you need. |
| B．The translator is becoming more and more common in the world as a bridge. |
| C．With the help of the translator，you only need to open your mouth when you want to say something without saying the exact words at all. |
| D．The translator needs to be improved before being put into market. |
| A．A newspaper. | B．A magazine on science. |

（天津市蓟县下营中学2010届高三第一次模拟）
A
Pete Rose, the famous baseball player, whom I have never met, taught me something so valuable that changed my life. Pete was being interviewed in spring training the year he was about to break Ty Cobb’s all-time hits record. One reporter asked, “Pete, you only need 78 hits to break the record. How many at-bats（轮到击球）do you think you’ll need to get the 78 hits?” Without hesitation, Pete said, “78.” The reporter yelled back, “Ah, come on, Pete. You don’t expect to get 78 hits in 78 at-bats, do you?”
Mr. Rose calmly shared his rule in life with all the reporters who were anxiously awaiting his reply. “Every time I step up to the plate, I expect to get a hit! If I don’t expect to get a hit, I have no right to step in the batter’s box in the first place! If I go up hoping to get a hit, then I probably don’t have a prayer of getting a hit. It is the positive expectation that has gotten me all of the hits in the first place.”
When I thought about Pete Rose’s rule and how it was applied to everyday life, I felt a little embarrassed. As a business person, I was hoping to make my sales meet the quotas（定额）. As a father, I was hoping to be a good dad. As a married man, I was hoping to be a good husband.
The truth was that I was an adequate salesperson, I was not so bad as a father, and I was an okay husband. I immediately decided that being okay was not enough! I wanted to be a great salesperson, a great father and a great husband. I changed my attitude to one of positive expectations, and the results were amazing. I was fortunate enough to in a few sales trips, I won Coach of the Year in my son’s baseball league, and I share a loving relationship with my wife! Thanks, Mr. Rose!
36. Which of the following sayings can most appropriately be used to describe Mr. Rose’s rule?
A. He who doesn’t want to be a general can’t be a good soldier.
B. Before everything else, getting ready is the secret of success.
C. If you work hard enough, your dreams will come true.
D. Rome was not built in one day.
37. What can be inferred about Pete Rose from the passage?
A. He was generous to share all his rules with everyone.
B. He got all the hits he wanted because of good luck.
C. He set himself a goal of being the best.
D. He liked to dream of something impossible.
38. By saying “I was an adequate salesperson”（Para. 3）the writer probably means “______”.
A. he could make adequate money as a salesperson
B. he didn’t do an excellent job as a salesperson
C. he was good enough to be a salesperson
D. he knew how to sell goods in a proper way
39. Which of the following is NOT a role of the writer?
A. A teammate of Rose. B. A salesman.
C. A father. D. A baseball coach.
40. Why does the writer thank Mr. Rose at the end of the passage?
A. Because Mr. Rose showed him how to be a successful salesperson.
B. Because Mr. Rose taught him to face life with positive expectation.
C. Because Mr. Rose trained him to win Coach of the Year for his son.
D. Because Mr. Rose gave him advice on managing a happy family.
