    “Everybody in this city wants a car, and I’m no exception. A car brings with it the freedom to travel”, said a friend of mine while reading a car magazine. I might not agree with him, but no doubt he was speaking for a rapidly growing number of middle-class Chinese. While it is true that all the waiting, walking, being part of a crowd, and sweating, are somewhat unpleasant, there are many problems which can arise when our lives rely too much on this invention.
    First of all, in terms of polluting the environment, driving a car is the worst act an average person can commit. Beijing now finds itself at the top of the list of the most polluted capital cities in the world with Mexico City in the second place. Research also shows that by 2010 around 90% of total pollutants in Shanghai have come from cars. These pollutions are extremely dangerous to our health. They can damage the lungs, cause cancer, and damage the brain.
    Apart from environmental problems, relying too much on cars also creates social problems such as traffic jams, road accidents, and noise pollution. The jeeps that proudly drive through the Hutongs in Beijing as if they are in a race often annoy me, and to make it worse, these drivers seldom respect cyclists.
    Of course, we cannot forget the convenience that cars bring us when we need to travel far, but I often find it faster to cycle from one place to another within the city of Beijing, especially with the growing traffic jams.
    Since people travel further and more frequently than before, cars will certainly be important in the future. At the same time, however, let us work hard to make sure that this invention brings us a more convenient lifestyle rather than trouble and disease. Let us make good use of cars.
    小题1:What is this passage mainly about?
    A．Environmental problems.
    B．Traffic jams in Beijing.
    C．Problems brought about by cars.
    D．Benefits of using cars.
    小题2: The underlined word commit in Paragraph 2 has the close meaning as ____ .
    A．do something right or legal
    B．do something wrong or illegal
    C．do something good and meaningful
    D．do something bad and meaningless
    小题3:What do we know about the author?
    A．The author doesn’t want a car.
    B．The author agrees that a car offers freedom to travel.
    C．The author suggests that we should rely on bicycles.
    D．The author thinks that the invention of cars leads to many problems.
    小题4:In Paragraph 3, what does the author mean by saying “The jeeps… often annoy me”?
    A．The author is troubled by the way jeeps are driven in the Hutongs of Beijing.
    B．The author thinks that Hutongs are too narrow for jeeps to drive through.
    C．The author thinks that the jeeps are too noisy.
    D．The author is worried that more accidents are caused by jeeps than any other cars.
    小题5:What is the author’s idea in Paragraphs 4 and 5 ?
    A．Cars are only convenient for people traveling far.
    B．We should all give up cars and ride bicycles.
    C．Cars have brought us more convenience than troubles.
    D．We should choose between the car and the bicycle according to the situation.

    What time is it？Most people are pretty accurate in their answer. And if you don’t know for sure, it’s very likely that you can find out. There may be a watch on your wrist; there may be a clock on the wall, desk, or computer screen; or maybe you’re riding in a car that has a clock in the dashboard .
    Even if you don’t have a timepiece of some sort nearby, your body keeps its own beat. Humans have an internal clock that regulates (调节) the beating of our heart, the peace of our breathing, the discharge (排出) of chemicals within our bloodstream, and many other bodily functions.
    Time is something from which we can’t escape. Even if we ignore it, it’s still going by, ticking away, second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour. So the main issue in using your time well is, “who’s in charge？” We can allow time to slip by and let it be our enemy. Or we can take control of it and make it our ally.
    By taking control of how you spend your time, you’ll increase your chances of becoming a more successful student. Perhaps more importantly, the better you are at managing the time you devote to your studies, the more time you will have to spend on your outside interests.
    The aim of time management is not to schedule every moment so we become slaves of a timetable that governs every waking moment of the day. Instead, the aim is to permit us to make informed choices as to how we use our time. Rather than letting the day go by, largely without our awareness, what we are going to discuss next can make us better able to control time for our own purposes.
    小题1:The underlined word “ally” in Para.3 most likely means somebody or something that is____________.
    A．your slave and serves youB．your supporter an helps you
    C．under your control and obeys youD．under your influence and follows you
    小题2:The author intends to tell us that time __________.
    A．could be regulated by a timepiece such as a clock or a watch
    B．could be managed by the internal clock by human bodies
    C．should be well managed for our own interest
    D．should be saved for outside interests
    小题3:In the next part, the author would most probably discuss with you ________.
    A．how to keep up with the timesB．how to make up for lost time
    C．how to have a good timeD．how to make good use of time

    Only three local students won Chinese Blog（博客）Competition. And 15 of the 18 awards went to students from China. 
    170 students’ task: to get a fully-designed blog up and running, complete with many posting based on a theme of choice—all written in Chinese. 
    Themes ranged from local opinions－such as the usage of Singlish, education and whether Singapore can be a cultural centre－to food blogs. 
    The entries were judged on Language proficiency（熟练程度）and the quality of writing, as well as the design and level of exchanging ideas with readers. 
    Academics from the National University of Singapore and the SIM University IT experts, and a journalist from Chinese newspaper Lianhe Zaobao in Singapore made up the judges. 
    In the end, only three Singaporean students made it to the award list—the rest of the awards were swept up by students from China. 
    “No surprise.” said Mr. Chow Yaw Long, 37, teachers in charge from Ianova Junior College, which organized the event. “Although the topics were local subjects, the foreign students were generally better in terms of the content of the posts and their grasp of the Chinese language.”
    One of the three local students winning the first prize in the Best Language Award was blogger Christina Gao，19, from the Saint Andrew’s Junior College, who spared no effort in researching for and writing her blog. Each entry took her between five and seven days to produce, complete with pictures and even podcasts（播客）.Her advice for bloggers is: Be responsible. “Some bloggers out there only seek to blame the authorities and other bloggers.” Said Miss Gao. “I think they lack responsibilities and there is no value to their posts.”
    小题1:The competition was organized by _______
    A．the National University of Singapore
    B．Chinese newspaper Lianhe Zaobao
    C．Ianova Junior College

    For a while, my neighborhood was taken over by an army of joggers．(慢跑者). They were there all the time—early morning, noon, and evening. There were little old ladies in gray sweats, young couples in Adidas shoes, middle-aged men with red faces. “Come on!” My friend Alex encouraged me to join him as he jogged by my house every evening. “You'll feel great.”
    Well, I had nothing against feeling great and if Alex could jog every day, anyone could. So I took up jogging seriously and gave it a good two months of my life, and not a day more. Based on my experience, jogging is the most overvalued form of exercise around, and judging from the number of the people who left our neighborhood jogging army. I'm not alone in my opinion.
    First of all, jogging is very hard on the body. Your legs and feet a real pounding (沉重的脚步) running down a road for two or three miles. I developed foot, leg, and back problems. Then I read about a nationally famous jogger who died of a heart attack while jogging, and I had something else to worry about. Jogging doesn't kill hundreds of people, but if you have any physical weaknesses, jogging will surely bring them out, as they did with me.
    Secondly, I got no enjoyment out of jogging. Putting one foot in front of the other for forty-five minutes isn't my idea of fun. Jogging is also a lonely pastime. Some joggers say, “I love being out there with just my thoughts.” Well, my thoughts began to bore me, and most of them were on how much my legs hurt.
    And how could I enjoy something that brought me pain? And that wasn't just the first week: it was practically every day for two months. I never got past the pain level, and pain isn't fun. What a cruel way to do it! So many other exercises, including walking, lead to almost the same results painlessly, so why jog?
    I don't jog any more, and I don't think I ever will. I'm walking two miles three times a week at a fast pace, and that feels good. I bicycle to work when the weather is good. I'm getting exercise, and I'm enjoying it at the same time. I could never say the same for jogging, and I've found a lot of better ways to stay in shape.
    小题1:From the first paragraph, we learn that in the writer's neighborhood ________.
    A．jogging became very popular
    B．many people were encouraged to jog
    C．Alex organized an army of joggers
    D．jogging provided a chance to get together
    小题2: The underlined word “them”(Paragraph 3) most probably refers to ________.
    A．heart attacksB．Back problems
    C．hundreds of peopleD．physical weaknesses
    小题3: From the author's experience, we can conclude that ________.
    A．jogging can help people keep fit
    B．many physical problems result from jogging
    C．not everyone enjoys jogging
    D．jogging makes people feel great

    Last August, Joe and Mary Mahoney began looking at colleges for their 17-year-old daughter, Maureen. With a checklist of criteria (衡量标准)in hand, the Dallas family looked around the country visiting half a dozen schools. They sought a university that offered the teenager’s intended major, one located near a large city, and a campus where their daughter would be safe.
    “The safety issue is a big one,” says Joe Mahoney, who quickly discovered he wasn’t alone in his worries. On campus tours other parents voiced similar concerns, and the same question was always asked: what about crime? But when college officials always gave the same answer -----“That’s not a problem here,”-----Mahoney began to feel uneasy.
    “No crime whatever?” comments Mahoney today. “I just don’t buy it.” Nor should he: in 1999 the U.S. Department of education had reports of nearly 400,000 serious crimes on or around our campuses. “Parents need to understand that times have changed since they went to college,” says David Nichols, author of Creating a Safe Campus. “Campus crime mirrors the rest of the nation.”
    But getting accurate information isn’t easy. Colleges must report crime statistics(统计数字) by law, but some hold back for fear of bad publicity（关注）, leaving the honest ones looking dangerous. “The truth may not always be serious,” warns S. Daniel Carter of Security on Campus, Inc., the nation’s leading campus safety watchdog group.
    To help concerned parents, Carter promised to visit campuses and talk to experts around the country to find out major crime issues and effective solutions.
    小题1:It is often difficult to get correct information on campus crime because some colleges ____.
    A．receive too many visitorsB．mirror the rest of the nation
    C．hide the truth of campus crimeD．have too many watchdog groups
    小题2:The underlined word “buy” in the third paragraph means _____.
    A．mindB．admitC．believeD．expect
    小题3: We learn from the text that “the honest ones” in the fourth paragraph most probably refers to colleges _____.
    A．that are protected by campus securityB．that report campus crimes by law
    C．that are free from campus crimeD．that enjoy very good publicity
    小题4:What is the text mainly about?
    A．Exact campus crime statistics.B．Crimes on or around campuses.
    C．Effective solutions to campus crime.D．Concerns about kids’ campus safety.
