If youre interested in NoPhone,but concerned about not being able to take selfies(自拍) anymore.Dont feel upset.The makers do have an upgrade at no extra chargethe mirror sticker.That way,they say,you can enjoyreal-timeselfies with your friends when theyre standing right behind you.

【2】D 主旨大意题。根据对第三段的阅读可知,这一段主要介绍的是NoPhone的大小、样式、功能等,也就是说是对NoPhone的简单描述。故选择D。

The truth is that you will have to deal with difficult problems throughout your life,whether it is in your personal life or career.Most of us get really afraid and run away from problems because we don’t want to accept reality.Running away from your problems is the worst thing you can do to deal with the challenges you are faced with.Here are some tips for you on learning how to deal with everyday challenges.

【题目】Coral reefs(珊 礁)are not just beautiful to look at,but also very useful.They shelter nearly 25% of ocean life and provide food for billions of people.However, like many other species,this amazing ecosystem(生态系统)is in danger of dying out!

There are two main reasons for the destruction—the rising carbon dioxide levels caused by global warming as well as human influences like bottom operation.While not much can be done about the former,the loss caused by the latter can be reduced.

Bottom operation involves dropping nets to the ocean bed and then dragging them up when filled with fish.This action damaged the ocean floor,causing the coral branches to separate from the reefs.While that is very discouraging,the good news is that if these branches are found quickly,they can be saved.At present,that work is being performed by volunteer divers. But the method has only limited success because they cannot stay long underwater, nor reach depths of over 200 meters where some of the deep-sea coral grows.

However,this is not the case for Coral botsthe robots that can constantly seek out broken branches.A team of ‘coral bots’,each individually working to simple rules will piece together damaged bits of coral, allowing them to regrow. They are programmed to be able to distinguish between other things and the coral.The robots work together in groups,similar to bees.If one coralbot is damaged then the others will still be able to complete the task.

Dr Lea-Anne Henry said:The project of using coral bots offers us the possibility to restore(修复)the function of reefs.It is in the final stage of testing.Once ready, the researchers hope to build hundreds of them and use them effectively in the waters off Scotland and then hopefully in the oceans across the world.

【1】Which of the following is a cause of the danger that coral reefs are facing?

A.The appearance of new creatures.

B.The seriously polluted sea water.

C.The activities of volunteer divers.

D.Human activities like bottom operation.

【2】Compared with volunteer divers,coralbots ______________.

A.can stay longer underwater

B.must work as bees do

C.can distinguish what is coral

D.can never be damaged

【3】What does the underlined wordthemin the last paragraph refer to?

A.Coralbots. B.Broken branches.

C.working bees. D.Bits of coral.

【4】We can infer from the passage that _______________.

A.bottom operation has affected most underwater creatures

B.broken branches of coral can regrow if saved in time

C.hundreds of the coralbots have worked well in the oceans

D.with the coralbots all damaged coral reefs can be restored

Yesterday a school boy is daydreaming in class. Not knowing that he was doing, he put a pen cap into his mouth. A few minutes late, he was terrified to find that he had swallowed it! The teacher was shocking when the boy stood up and said, “I've just swallowed a pen cap.” He was quickly sent the nearest hospital. There a doctor examined him and said the best treatment was to take some medicines so that the pen cap could pass natural. Three hours later the boy successfully made it.“She is really lucky,” said the doctor. “It's not rare that small children put things into their mouths for a fun. It's very danger.”

【题目】Most Chinese people expect to relax and enjoy themselves during the Golden Week. But for those trying to go someplace,it may seem more disappointment than pleasure. This year, the severe traffic jam resulted in a roadside wedding.

The suffering of being stuck in traffic was possibly most strongly felt by Lv Kangzhou and his bride Yan Mengxia. By tradition, the groom drove early in the morning to the bride's home in Zhejiang province in East China to pick her up along with her family and take them to his family's hometown for the wedding. By 4 p.m., Lv's wedding was 90 minutes away, but his car had not moved an inch for a long time. Lv contacted the local radio to explain his difficult situation and ask for a traffic forecast. The radio host told Lv there was no way he could hold his wedding on time and offered to hold their wedding on the air. At 5:30 p.m., Lv and his bride said their vows on the side of the road while Lv's family and friends witnessed the ceremony while listening to the radio.

Lv wasn’t the only person stuck in the Golden Week crowds. According to the state news agency Xinhua, 11.7 million people traveled by train Wednesday. It calculated that 120,000 people gathered at Tiananmen Square in Beijing to watch the flag raising ceremony. Last year, the Forbidden City in Beijing hosted 175,000 tourists on a single day during Golden Week, and the number is expecting to be even bigger this year.

Chinse internet users routinely complain about the Golden Week holiday every year. As internet user Tuzhi said on Sina Weibo: “On the Great Wall, I’m holding your hand, but I cannot see your face.”

【1】What does the text mainly intend to tell us?

A. A successful roadside wedding during the Golden Week.

B. The popularity of traveling around during the Golden Week.

C. The crowded situation in China during the Golden Week.

D. The cause of the heavy traffic in China during the Golden Week.

【2】Lv, the groom, called the local radio because he wanted ________.

A.to ask for help

B. to hold their wedding on the air

C. to complain about the traffic conclusion

D. to find someone to pick them up

【3】By tradition, the wedding was supposed to take place ________.

A. in Zhejiang Province B. in a hotel

C. in the bride’s hometown D. in the groom’s hometown

【4】Where does this text probably come from?
