The team even thought about the (57)A uses of their findings.They (58)B whether walls should be painted different colors depending on the task at hand.However,(59)Cthis might be tricky.In an office or a classroom you (60)D want to think creatively some of the time and pay attention to detail at others.

5.     Settling in to life at Oxford      
When you first arrive in Oxford,it may take a little while for you to find your way around.The university is a large organization that is fully integrated into the city and has been evolving for 800years.Some of the first things our students do when they arrive include finding a bike(most students in Oxford find cycling is the best way to go around),setting up a bank account,getting their computer and mobile phone working,finding their department,getting to know their college and working out the best places to socialize.
One of the major events you will experience shortly after"coming up"to Oxford is matriculation.Matriculation is held at the University's Sheldonian Theatre and is the ceremony at which you are formally admitted to the university.
International students are invited to an orientation day at the start of the academic year.Sessions run throughout the day that will give you practical information about living and studying in UK and introduce you to other graduate students from for all over the world who are starting their studies at Oxford at the same time as you,as well as to current Oxford graduate students and staff who will be able to help and advise you.The day covers topics such as studying and learning in the Oxford system,University services,information on living in Britain and culture differences,as well as addressing practical issues such as employment,immigration and visas,health and safety.You can choose which talks to attend and at the end of the day there is a social hour so you can meet fellow students.
Another good thing to experience early on is college dining.Most colleges have a tradition of regular formal hall dinners,which consist of three or four courses,and the atmosphere of an evening out in a nice restaurant.On some of these occasions you can invite people around to your college for dinner and then they may return the favor.In this way,you can get to know people studying your own and other subjects at the same time as visiting many of the historical college grounds and dining halls.
Further information on your first few weeks at Oxford is available via the Students Gateway on our website,and you can get first-hand accounts of what life at Oxford is like by watching videos of students talking about their experiences on our Wall of 100Faces.

70.Which of the following is not the first thing for a newcomer to Oxford to doC?
A.to find a best place to socialize             
B.to set up a bank account
C.to go to the Sheldonian Theatre

B.They received the offer from the admission office.

D.They experienced the matriculation in the university.

B.It offers practical information about living and studying.
C.It helps get students'computers hooked to the Internet.
D.It can help deal with the problem of culture differences.
73."return the favor"in the passage probably meansA.
A.inviting you for dinner               
B.visiting your historic college in return
C.sharing favorite videos

9.There was a man who was blind from birth.He owned a fruit stand (摊子) on a very busy street.
One day his son came to him and told him that he had read in the newspaper of a new discovery that they could operate on his eyes and allow him to see.The father and son traveled to the doctor and paid for the operation.
The doctor asked the man after the operation,"What is the first thing you want to see when I take the bandages off?"
The blind man replied,"I want to see my beautiful fruit on my stand!"
The doctor and the son took the man down to the busy street where his fruit stand was located for so many years.The doctor carefully took off the bandages so that the man could lay his eyes on the beautiful fruit.The man was so full of joy that he could finally see his life's work-taking care of his fruit.
After a few hours of enjoying his beautiful fruit stand,he looked down the street and saw there were quite a few fruit stands in both directions.He spent so much time looking at other fruit stands and he was so sad because his fruit stand was not the only one along the street!
The reason I tell you this story is:
-You are an individual.
-You have different fingerprints,DNA,and thinking!
-You are one of a kind.
-There is no competition.
-You are on the endangered species list!
-Once you are gone,that's it!
-Be yourself and allow everyone else to be who they are.
36.How did the son know there was a way to allow the blind man to see?D
A.From the doctor
B.From a friend.
C.From the advertisement
D.From the newspaper.
37.What was the blind man's biggest wish after he could see?A
A.To see his fruit
B.To see the world.
C.To see his son
D.To see the doctor.
38.Why did the man's feeling change from joy to sadness?C
A.Because he couldn't see his stand very clearly.
B.Because his life's work was taking care of his fruit.
C.Because his stand was just one of those fruit stands.
D.Because the fruit wasn't as beautiful as he had thought.
39.The purpose of the story isB.
A.to support us to compete with others
B.to remind us to mind our own life
C.to advise us to be a special one
D.to believe us endangered.

4.Google Glass,a wearable computer,will not go on sale for many months.But the resistance is already under way.The glasses-like device,which allows users to access the Internet,take photos and shoot videos,has been banned by a bar in Seattle,because according to the bar'owner,the bar was"kind of a private place."Besides,large parts of Las Vegas will not welcome wearers.
Google Glass is a pair of glasses with a tiny computer attached to the right earpiece and has the ability to capture any chance encounter and broadcast it to millions.As personal technology becomes increasingly invisible,it is causing questions of whether it will rob people of privacy.
As Google sees it,Glass is a revolutionary new way to quickly and effortlessly connect people with information.Google stresses that Glass is a work in its early stage,with test versions now being released to 2,000developers.The company hopes they'll be seen as normal and become accepted in the same way smart phones are.The wearer has to speak or touch the device to activate(激活) it,and must look directly at someone to take a photograph or video of them."We are thinking very carefully about how we design Glass because new technology always raises new issues,"said Courtney Hohne,a Google spokeswoman.
Critics view Glass as an unfriendly new technology that could rob people of what few privacy they have left.They think Google is downplaying the privacy and security risks.According to Google,it's obvious when someone is taking pictures or recording a video on Glass.Developers,however,are pushing the limits.One created a small sensation in tech circles with a program that eliminated the need for gestures or voice commands.To snap a picture,all the user needed to do was wink(眨眼).
Imagine a surveillance(监控) device that you could wear on your body all day without anyone being the wiser.Out on the street,in the subway,at a bar or cafe,people would never know whether the stranger next to them is secretly recording their every move.It is really a privacy disaster.

41.What can we know from the first paragraph?D
A.Google Glass sells well in the market.
B.Google Glass is not welcomed by customers.
C.Google Glass can not be used in private places.
D.Google Glass has heard some sort of disapproval.
42.According to Google Company,which of the following statements about Google Glass is NOT true?C
A.Google Glass is an immature product.
B.They are acting cautiously in designing Google Glass.
C.People can take photos without eyeing the objects.
D.Google Glass is just as normal as a smart phone.
43.The underlined part"pushing the limits"in Paragraph 4refers toB.
A.speeding up the production time of Google Glass
B.improving the functions of Google Glass
C.objecting to what Google has said
D.experimenting with something risky
44.In the last paragraph,the author wants to tell us thatD.
A.Google glass is not worth buying
B.people are constantly monitored
C.people can become wiser with Google Glass
D.Google Glass is threatening people's privacy

A.The Disadvantages of Google Glass.
B.A New Way to Gain More Information.
C.Privacy Concerns of Google Glass.
D.A Revolutionary Technology.
