    【题目】Many people rely on a cup of coffee or two to wake them up in the morning or refresh them during the working day, but now a chemist has come up with a speedy alternative to drinking coffee.

    U.S. biochemist Ben Yu has created ‘Sprayable Energy’, which claims to be the world's first caffeine - based topical energy spray.

    He said tired workers can spray a 'shot' of caffeine onto their skin without experiencing a strong noise, taking in unnecessary calories or being stuck with a nasty aftertaste like they might get from drinking energy drinks or coffee.

    The tasteless caffeine spray is absorbed through the skin and spread through the body over a number of hours to deliver a caffeine hit that lasts longer than drinking a cup of coffee. The only active ingredient in the spray is caffeine, which is very similar to nicotine in structure. Each spray ‘Sprayable Energy’ contains around a quarter of the amount of caffeine found in a cup of coffee, but apparently has the same effect as a full cup.

    The website said: “The reason for this is our product isn't entirely metabolized(新陈代谢) by the liver before entering your system and becoming available to your body.” Sprayable Energy's website recommends that users apply the spray in places where they normally spritz perfume, such as wrists, the neck or behind the ears, but warns users not to exceed 20 times a day.

    It claims that after spraying the product on the skin, users will feel awake and focus withut being over-excited, which is common with coffee and energy drinks.

    【1】Compared with an energy drink or a coffee, what is good about “Sprayable Energy”?

    A. It makes no noise.

    B. It contains lower calories.

    C. It has a good taste.

    D. It contains many active ingredients.

    【2】Which of the body may not be suitable to apply “Sprayable Energy”?

    A. The neck. B. Behind the ears. C. Wrists. D. Mouth.

    【3】What can we infer from the text?

    A. “Sprayable Energy” contains caffeine as well as nicotine.

    B. The liver can metabolize in caffeine before it enters your system.

    C. Whenever you feel tired, you can spray the product.

    D. After spraying “Sprayable Energy”, you’ll get rid of tiredness.

    【题目】This fourth of July I moved into a new house with my wife, Nicole. Nicole and I met through a series of coincidences that would be unlikely without some unbelievable force causing them to happen.

    The day Nicole and I met, we talked about the Yankees. In the restaurant where we sat, the first game between the Yanks and Tampa Bay was being shown on television. Nicole was happy I was a baseball fan, and she told me that was an important reason when she considered dating (约会) me. “My dad wouldn’t like me dating anyone who isn’t,” she said.

    Nicole’s dad, Ira, used to be a coach for the Yankees. Many years ago, a colleague (同事) of his was leaving and packing up his office. The only thing left unpacked was a photo on the wall. It was a picture of Sparky Lyle, a famous baseball player. Sparky had signed the photo on the bottom.

    “You’re not taking that?” Ira asked. “You want it?” his colleague offered. “Sure!” Ira said. He jumped at the chance to have a signed photo from a great player who had helped the team win two World Series.

    Ira told me the story after the movers had gone. He then said to me, “Adam, when I first learned who was dating my daughter, that photo came into my mind,” he said. “But by now, I know for sure you’re meant to have it.” He then presented me with a box. I tore it open. Inside was the signed photo of Sparky Lyle which I had lost years ago.

    “To Adam, Best Wishes, Sparky Lyle”. It was picked up by Nicole’s dad years before I’d even met her. The perfect gift — a sign only making me believe what I already knew ... I was meant for Nicole and her family all along.

    【1】What does the underlined word “coincidences” in Paragraph 1 mean?

    A. New things.

    B. Important things.

    C. Things that happened long ago.

    D. Things that happened by chance.

    A. he was able

    B. he was a baseball fan

    C. he got a new house

    D. they had much in common

    【3】Ira got the photo of Sparky Lyle from _____.

    A. Sparky Lyle B. Nicole

    C. his colleague D. Adam

    【4】We can infer from the text that _____.

    A. Adam did not like the gift

    B. Nicole found the lost picture

    C. Adam and Nicole will love each other forever

    D. the picture of Sparky Lyle was first owned by Adam

    【题目】On April 24th, another natural disaster-the oil spill（泄露）in the Gulf of Mexico, happened. Millions of dollars have been used to help stop the spill and to clean up the animals, beaches, and land spoiled by the oil. Unfortunately, when many of these chemicals are used, more damage is caused to the environment, especially to lives in the sea.

    But governments seem to accept the risk of transporting mil-lions of tons of oil by ship every day so that we can fill up our cars and drive around and cause even more environmental damage. Interestingly, the biggest companies in the world produce cars, and the next biggest supply the gasoline to make them run.

    Of all of today's environmental disasters, an oil spill may actually be one of the least serious. Although oil is poisonous, it is a natural material. In the end, it breaks down naturally. In 1967 the tanker Torrey Canyon sank off the Scilly Isles near the coast of England and spilled 120，000 tons of oil into the ocean. If you go there today, you will find it hard to see any sign that it ever happened.

    However, we should be thinking more about reducing our dependency on oil. Governments should be encouraging research into new technologies, such as cars run by solar power, electricity, hydro-gen, and so on. Much of this research, in the past, was stopped by the oil, gas, and coal.

    If the world's millions of cars were 10% more efficient （高效的），we would need many fewer tankers crossing the oceans each year. If this happened, the risks of oil spills would be reduced, and the air we breathe would be cleaner and fresher, too.

    【1】What is the passage mainly talking about?

    A. Oil spills pollution.

    B. What oil pollution is.

    C. Oil tanker accidents.

    D. How to reduce oil pollution.

    【2】How does the author support the idea that oil spills are not as serious as people believe?

    A. By giving a description.

    B. By making an argument.

    C. By giving an example.

    D. By drawing a diagram（图表）.

    【3】Which suggestion is made for reducing oil tankers according to the passage?

    A. We should build safer tankers in the near future.

    B. We should develop new technologies to cut oil use.

    C. Tankers should not be allowed to sail near the coastlines.

    D. Countries should build more oil pipelines under the sea.

    【4】Where can you read this article?

    A. In a story book. B. In a science magazine.

    C. In a novel. D. In a brochure.
