Don’t be surprised if you see a group of people dancing or shouting on the square. They are a flash mob (快闪族). Confused by their name? Actually, a flash mob, organized with the help of the Internet or other digital communications networks, is a group of people who gather suddenly in a public place, do something unusual for a period of time, such as exchanging books, coming together to look at the sky, waving their hands and shouting something at the top of their lungs for 30 seconds, and then quickly disappear before the police can arrive.
Bill Wasik, senior editor of Harper’s Magazine, organized the first flash mob in Manhattan in May 2003 and the first successful flash mob gathered on June 3, 2003 at Macy’s department store involving 100 people gathering on Macy’s Department Store. Following this, about 200 people flooded the lobby of the Hyatt hotel, applauding in one voice for fifteen seconds, and next participants pretending to be tourists on a trip invaded a shoe shop in Soho. A later mob saw hundreds of people in Central Park making bird noises.
Wasik claimed that he created flash mobs as a social experiment designed to tease hipsters (追逐时尚的人), and highlight the cultural atmosphere of agreement and of being part of “the next big thing”. Many web logs, chat rooms and Web groups are devoted to the craze. Though flash mobs were originally regarded as useless, the concept has already developed for the benefit of political and social events. Flash mobbing takes advantage of the efficiency of communicating information on Websites and by email, and protesters can similarly use the “on and off” concept to be involved in political events. Such flash mob gatherings can sometimes shock or frighten people who are not aware of what is taking place. They also have enormous economic potential, such as using flash mobs to advertise a product.
The flash mob is now becoming more and more popular. People use it to do many things. For example, in 2009, hundreds of Michael Jackson’s fans took part in a flash mob to remember him, gathering outside the railway station in Liverpool, singing and dancing Michael’s famous song, beat it together. In another example, some people took part in a flash mob to warn people against negative words. Flash mobs give people from all walks of life an opportunity to come together to create a memory.
1.A flash mob is most likely to .
A. give out leaflets of a brand bicycle to the passers-by
B. gather in public places performing and leave quickly
C. plan to go mountaineering on the first day of Horse Year
D. sit for days in front of the city hall for higher wages
2.According to the passage, what contribute(s) most to the popularity of the flash mob?
A. Harper’s Magazine. B. The government.
C. Political events. D. Digital networks.
3.The purpose of the writing is .
A. to amuse and interest
B. to argue and advise
C. to describe and introduce
D. to question and comment

5 Secrets of Web Travel Sites
Booking a trip on an online travel site is convenient,but comes with its own set of problems.
1.They know who's on a Mac and who's on a PC and who's going to spend more.
Last year,US travel research company Orbitz tracked people's online activities to test out whether Mac users spend more on travel than PC users.On average,Mac users lay out US$20?30 more per night on hotels and go for more stars,according to the Wall Street Journal.As a result,online travel sites show these users more expensive travel options first.To avoid inadvertently paying more,sort results by price.
2.Their software doesn't always hook up to the hotel's system.
A guaranteed reservation is almost impossible to come by anywhere—but the risk of your flight or hotel being overbooked increases with third?party providers.The middle?man's software isn't immune to system errors,so always call the hotel or airline to make sure your booking was processed.
3.Don't be fooled by packages: Often,they're low?end items grouped together.
Ever notice how travel sites recommend a hotel,a rental car,and tour package all in one click? These deals usually feature travel that no one wants,like flights with multiple layovers.Check the fine print.
4.You could miss out on loyalty points.
Third?party providers can get between you and frequent flyer miles or points.Many hotel loyalty programmes don't recognise external sites,others award only minimum points and exclude special offers,like double points on hotel stays.
5.Once your trip is purchased,you're on your own.
An online travel agency can't provide assistance the same way an agent can if a flight is cancelled or a room is substandard.Basically,when you arrive at the airport or hotel,you're just another client who booked at the lowest rate.
1.Which of the following is TRUE?
A.Third?party providers can ensure your reservation.
B.Mac users are likely to spend more money than PC users.
C.An online travel agency functions the same as an agent.
D.Packages usually provide travelers with satisfactory programmes.
2.What's the purpose of the passage?
A.To encourage readers to book a trip on an online travel site.
B.To make an advertisement about several travel sites online.
C.To convince readers not to book a trip on an online travel site.
D.To warn readers of some problems with booking trips online.

Section B
Direction:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished sattments. For each of them there are four choices markedA, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
One early morning, I went into the living room to find my mother reading a thick book called Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again. My interest was aroused only by the fact that the word “Poems” appeared in big, hot pink letters.
“Is it good?” I asked her.
“Yeah,” she answered. “There’s one I really like and you’ll like it, too.” I leaned forward.
“‘Patty Poem,’” she read the title. Who is Patty? I wondered. The poem began:
She never puts her toys away,
The poem was just three short sections. The final one came quickly:
And I’ll be sad.
A terrible sorrow washed over me. Whoever Patty was, she was a mean girl. Then, the shock.
“It’s you, honey,” My mother said sadly.
To my mother, the poem revealed a parent’s affection when her child grows up and leaves. To me, the “she” in the poem was horror. It was my mama who would be sad. It was so terrible I burst out crying.
“What’s wrong?” my mother asked.
“Oh Mama,” I cried. “I don’t want to grow up ever!”
She smiled. “Honey, it’s okay. You’re not growing up anytime soon. And when you do, I’ll still love you, okay?”
“Okay,” I was still weeping. My panic has gone. But I could not help thinking about that silly poem. After what seemed like a safe amount of time, I read the poem again and was confused. It all fit so well together, like a puzzle. The language was simple, so simple I could plainly understand its meaning, yet it was still beautiful. I was now fascinated by the idea of poetry, words that had the power to make or break a person’s world.
I have since fallen in love with other poems, but “Patty Poem” remains my poem. After all, “Patty Poem” gave me my love for poetry not because it was the poem that lifted my spirits, but because it was the one that hurt me the most.
1.Why was the writer attracted by the book Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again?
A. It was a thick enough book.
B. Something on its cover caught her eye.
C. Her mother was reading it with interest.
D. It has a meaningful title.
2.After her mother read the poem to her, the writer felt ______ at first.
A. sad B. excited
C. horrified D. confused
3. The writer’s mother liked to read “Patty Poem” probably because______.
A. it reflected her own childhood
B. it was written in simple language
C. it was composed by a famous poet
D. it gave her a hint of what would happen
4.It can be concluded from the passage that“Patty Poem”leads the writer to _______.
A. discover the power of poetry
B. recognize her love for puzzles
C. find her eagerness to grow up
D. experience great homesickness
