    A store that sells husbands has just opened in Ottawa，where a woman may go to choose a husband from many men.

    The store consists of 6 floors and the men increase in positive attributes（品质，特点）as the shopper goes up the flights. There is, however, a catch（陷阱. As you open the door to any floor, you may choose a man from that floor, but if you go up a floor, you cannot go back down except to exit the building.

    So a woman goes to the shopping center to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1—These men have jobs. The woman reads the sign and says to herself, “Well, that’s better than my last boyfriend, but I wonder what’s further up?”

    So up she goes. The second floor sign reads: Floor 2 —These men have jobs and love kids. The woman remarks to herself, “That’s great, but I wonder what’s further up?”

    And up she goes again. The third floor sign reads: Floor 3 — These men have jobs, love kids and are extremely good-looking. “Hmm, better.”

    The fourth floor sign reads: Floor 4 —These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good-looking and help with the housework. “Wow!” exclaims the woman, “Very tempting. But, there must be more, further up!”

    And again she heads up another flight. The fifth floor sign reads: Floor 5 —These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good-looking, help with the housework and have a strong romantic character. “Oh, mercy me! But just think…, what must be awaiting me further on?”

    So up to the sixth floor she goes. The sixth floor sign reads: Floor 6 –You are visitor 3, 456, 789,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. Thank you for shopping Husband Mart and have a nice day.

    1.The writer intends us to believe that _____.

    A. husbands are hard to shop

    B. women are hard to please

    C. women think they are better than men

    D. women can’t be too careful when choosing husbands

    2.Why do women tend to go up the floor until they reach the top floor ?

    A. because they think the husbands downstairs are not suitable.

    B. because they are sure that the best husbands are on the top floor.

    C. just because they think even better husbands may be upstairs.

    D. maybe they know the catch very well.

    3.What result can we infer from the passage?

    A. Women are not good at shopping husbands.

    B. Women are more kind than men.

    C. Women are romantic.

    D. More women will leave the shop alone.

    Facebook and Twitter have become a significant threat to marriage – with social media now a factor in an increasing number of divorce cases, say lawyers.

    One in seven married individuals have considered divorce because of their spouse’s（配偶） postings of Facebook or other online sites, according to research. A similar percentage admit that they search online for evidence of their spouse’s disloyalty, while nearly one in five say they have daily quarrels because of the way their husband or wife uses social media. The research was assigned by law firm Gordon in response to an increase in the number of its clients who said that Facebook, Skype, Snapchat, Twitter or other social media sites had played a part in their divorce.

    Andrew Newbury, of law firm Gordon, said: ‘Social media is the new marriage. Five years ago Facebook was rarely mentioned in the context of a marriage ending, but now it has become common.” Social media, specific pictures and posts on Facebook, are now being routinely raised in divorces.’ The survey by Censuswide among 2011 husbands and wives, found the most common reasons for checking their spouse’s social media accounts were to discover who they were talking to, who they were meeting and where they were going. A quarter of the married people said the resulting suspicions led to quarrels at least once a week, and 17 percent said such quarrels were daily events.

    Arguments were caused by contact with former partners, by the sending of secret messages, and by the posting of ‘inappropriate’ pictures. Some 14 percent said they looked at their spouse’s social media with the specific intention of detecting evidence of adultery（出轨）.

    1.The underlined word “disloyalty” in Paragraph 2 probably means _______.

    A. affection B. discomfort

    C. dishonesty D. violence

    2.What might checking spouse’s social media accounts result in?

    A. The couple let out secrets quickly.

    B. The couple lost trust between each other.

    C. All the couples quarreled at least once a week.

    D. The couple felt comfortable about their relationship.

    3.By saying “Social media is the new marriage minefield”, Andrew means that _______.

    A. a new marriage needs social media field

    B. social media is a good thing to marriage

    C. social media is a new field of communication

    D. marriage ending will be caused by social media

    4.What can be the best title for the passage?

    A. Facebook, a Multifunctional Tool

    B. Social Media, a Threat to Marriage

    C. Posting Pictures is Killing Marriage

    D. Argument about Social Media Sites

    Who is your role model? Normally the answer to this question would be anyone around you who you find truly inspiring. It could also be someone like J. K. Rowling or Martin Luther King. Jr. , who have proven to be strong and intelligent people.

    However, in today’s world, stars are regarded as role models along with the heroes listed above, despite their intentions or actions. Teens attempt to imitate their actions for two major reasons. Firstly, to be fashionable and accepted by popular culture, and secondly because stars’ actions are so well documented by the media that it seems to grab our attention and turns it to following stars’ lives. Much of the reports about stars is shocking and exhibits bad morals or lifestyles that aren’t right for teenagers. In addition, almost everything stars do is described beyond truth to make a shocking story by taking it to the next level.

    However, teens must take responsibility for their actions. We can’t always blame stars for influencing us. Only you have control over yourself and only you choose to do something. Our bodies and actions are in the hands of no one else.

    Now, whoever said stars are role models? Whether they choose to be or not, stars set examples as soon as they step into the spotlight. With reporters following and recording every move they make, it is impossible not to be watched and then be imitated. These people influence teens whether or not they want to. Why should someone who doesn’t want to be setting an example set one? So，should we look up to them or to people who are true and good role models? It’s our responsibility as teens to know right from wrong, and it’s time for us to take responsibility for our actions. In doing so，we will lean toward those inspiring people that want to be setting an example, and follow in their steps to be like them.

    1. According to the first paragraph, _______ can usually be role models.

    A. political leaders

    B. wealthy writers

    C. people inspiring others

    D. people with great intelligence

    2.What are the major reasons for the teens to imitate stars?

    A. Interest in stars’ life and expectation of getting rich.

    B. Motivation for being fashionable and inspiration from popular examples.

    C. Intentions to gain acceptance and encouragement from stars’ lifestyle.

    D. Desires to be stylish and great influence from the mass media.

    3. The author writes the passage mainly to advise the teenagers to _______.

    A. have a control over their own bodies and actions

    B. be responsible for their own choices and behaviors

    C. follow fashionable stars’ steps to be more popular

    D. choose right role models according to different reports

    4.It can be inferred from the passage that _______.

    A. stars have the responsibility for teenagers’ actions

    B. not all famous stars choose to influence teenagers

    C. teenagers choose those inspiring people as their role models

    D. stars set examples immediately they stepped into the spotlight

    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

    Most students have had a love-hate experience with procrastination(拖延). Here are some tips to help you reduce this age-old practice.

    ◆Set goals.

    In order to achieve a particular result, you should constantly set and update goals. It can be beneficial to mark all deadlines in a planner. And then you think about how much time you need to meet them all._ 1.___.

    ◆ 2.

    Sometimes you may consider some work or a class pointless and not useful to your further studies. However, when these thoughts arise and you think that getting a pint of beer is a better idea than getting a good grade, remind yourself what the ultimate goal of your schooling is. Remind yourself why you wanted to go to school and take this program in the first place.

    ◆Turn off the Internet.

    The most common things that take your attention away are those found on the Interne-social media sites, and videos. If you do not need the Internet to do your work, turn it off so that you are not receiving notices while completing your work. 3. You can take a break from being connected to the cyber world in order to do your school work. If you feel the need to check messages and websites often, set times when you will allow yourself to do so rather than constantly staying connected.

    ◆ 4.

    Being productive for all hours of every, day does not work-you do need breaks, and as a student you have the right to have a lot of fun. 5. Ideally, social and relaxation plans should be made for after a significant portion of work is complete. This way, while you are working, you can keep in mind that once you have finished your work you can go out and not worry about your assignments.

    A. The same goes for your cell phone.

    B. Have something to look forward to.

    C. Do not worry about your assignments.

    D. Remind yourself of what you are doing.

    E. It can be difficult to mark all deadlines in advance.

    F. So plan time to go out with friends or do something relaxing.

    G. Additionally, make a daily schedule in order to reach necessary goals before going to bed.

    Wrong Reasons for Going to College

    A college education can be priceless. 1. If any of these following factors had a big influence on your decision, you’re probably right to second-guess yourself.

    Because all your friends are going.

    In only a few weeks’ time, the whole friend group will be scattered to a half dozen different colleges in a half dozen different places. Not to go will set yourself apart. 2.

    Because someone else expects it from you.

    Perhaps you come from a family where everyone goes to college. Or maybe, you’re the kid that everyone is proud to believe will be the first to get there. 3. . It’s become so much a part of the air you breathe that you’ve never stopped to consider whether you want to go or whether you’re ready to go.

    4.

    It’s been tough to find even a summer job. You don’t have an alternative plan. Everyone else is doing it(see above). You think you might as well go to school. That is the lamest(无说服力的) of reasons to spend $20,000 or more in the next year.

    Because you are afraid you’ll regret it if you don’t go.

    Your uncle tells you that his one regret in life is that he didn’t go to college. Others tell you that they could have gone so much farther in their career if only they had a college education. 5. So this is not a persuasive reason for you to go to college.

    A. Because you don’t want to work.

    B. Friends will wonder what’s wrong with you.

    C. Because you don’t know what else to do.

    D. Everyone seems more excited than you are.

    E. It seems that for years everyone has just assumed that of course you’ll go.

    F. Whatever the story is, there are always people who regret decisions they’ve made.

    G. But maybe in your heart you know that you are going for the wrong reasons.
