Texting in the street—your funeral
Millions of people are putting their lives at risk by texting their friends as they walk along busy streets, reported the Daily Mail.
One in ten 41 users has already been 42 because they are so lost in their phones that they fail to 43 lamp-posts or cars, according to Joanna Lumdsen of Aston University.
To test the danger of texting while 44 , Lumdsen did an experiment in which volunteers followed a 45 path while trying to 46 in a message on the phone.
Around them, screens 47 up instructions to avoid stepping on 48 colors on the floor.
She found that people missed one in five 49 because they were so busy with their phones.
“In 50 life this means that one in five lamp-posts or moving cars is 51
to go unnoticed by people 52 and walking,” she said.
Her research is looking for ways cell phone makers could improve the 53
of phones to make texting on the move 54 . That could 55 easier-to-use voice operated phones, or phones that respond to gestures.
“The safest thing is 56 people not to text while they walk along,” she said. “ 57 a lot of people in business are 58 to carry a mobile phone and be in 59 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They are under pressure to reply to calls 60 , and to respond to text messages and emails straight away.

Let’s go trick-or-treating!” My daughter waited by the door in her pink princess skirt while I prayed in the living room. Usually I liked taking her out on Halloween, but this year I was sad. I was worried about my mother, who was in China on vacation. I got a call that afternoon that she had slipped and fallen on the hard floor of her hotel and broken her leg. She was taken to a hospital in Beijing. Mom was nervous because she couldn’t understand any of the doctors. If only I could do something to help her! I knew I couldn’t let my worries spoil my daughter’s fun. There was nothing I could do for Mom except pray, I thought. We left the house and went down the block. I was so upset that I hardly took notice of the kids around me. There came the man to whose son I’d once given piano lessons. “Hello there,” I said, greeting him and the boy at his side. “Hello,” the father answered. “Having fun?”“I’m trying,” I said. “Why, what’s wrong?” he asked. I told him the whole story. “My mother, in China, broke her leg and didn’t understand any of the doctors. And I’m too far away to do anything!” I said. He raised his eyebrows. “Beijing, you said?” he asked. I nodded. He smiled. “Believe it or not, my sister is a doctor at an English-speaking hospital there. If you want, I’ll make a call right away and we’ll try and get your mom transferred (转移).” A few days later I sat in the living room with my daughter as she finished the last of the candy. “Mommy, how far away is China?” she asked. “Not as far as I thought,” I said. 41.What did the author’s daughter want to do?
42.What was the author’s mother worried about most?
43.The author hardly took notice of the kids around because _____ .

Maybe even lots of snow. If you don’t have to drive in it or remove it, snow can be very beautiful. When snow covers everything around you, the world looks like a “winter wonderland”. That is the name of a very popular song about winter. Richard Smith and Felix Bernard wrote the song back in 1934. There are hundreds of recordings of this happy song. But winter is not always such a beautiful and happy time. It’s cold outside. You try hard to keep warm. The days are darker and shorter. The sun rarely shines. The leaves on the trees are brown. It isn’t surprising that some people are sad in winter. And some people dream about being somewhere else where it’s warm and pretty—like the state of California. The Mamas and the Papas recorded this famous song “California Dreaming”. During the 1960s, many other famous rock groups released songs about winter. Here is a poetic song by Simon and Garfunkel called “A Hazy Shade of Winter”. They sing about life and hope and possibilities. In 1968, the group Blood, Sweat and Tears recorded this gentle, sad song about winter. They sing about a lost love and forgotten memories in “Sometimes in Winter”. In the early 1990s, Tori Amos wrote and recorded the beautiful song called “Winter”. She enjoyed singing about winter when she was a child. Finally, on a happier note comes this song written and recorded by Fountains of Wayne in 2003. They sing about a snowstorm in a New England town. Nothing unusual there. But instead of being sad or tense about the snow, they write a song about it. 49. The underlined sentence “For some areas, that means snow.” probably means _____ .
50. According to the second paragraph, winter is _____ .
51.Which of the songs can bring us hope of life?
52.What does the passage mainly talk about?

In 2002, former England international footballer Jeff Astle died aged 59. A coroner (验尸官) said that Astle died from a brain disease likely to have been caused by “repeated small damages to the brain” related to heading a heavy leather football. Dr. Scott Delaney, research director of emergency medicine at McGill University Health Center in Montreal, Canada, has also researched soccer-related head injury and agrees that head-to-head or elbow-to-head blows are the real risk. In 2007, Delaney carried out a study on footballers aged between 12 and 17 that showed they were half as likely to be concussed (使脑部受到震荡) wearing headgear (帽) than without. He said youngsters have a higher risk of head injury than adults because their heads are thinner and less able to absorb shock. To make matters worse, their neck muscles aren’t as well developed and they often lack the correct heading technique that can help throw away the force of the ball. Delaney recommends that children wear headgear when playing football and says his two eldest children wear head protection playing the sport. But he admits that children can be unwilling to be the first to wear head protection—especially when their football heroes play without it. While headgear can protect footballers from being concussed during a match, no one knows the long-term effects of repeated “sub-concussive” blows to the head. Delaney says that while there is indirect evidence that a career in soccer can lead to dementia, no one has yet found a sure link between the two. He says proving a link would mean monitoring hundreds of footballers for three or four decades—and that would take a lot of funding. 57.Which might be the best title of the passage?
58.According to Delaney’s research, what is the most risky injuries to head?
59. Children are unwilling to wear headgear because they think _____ .
60.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _____ .

Before you send in your college applications, keep this in mind: it’s not the norm (准则) in every culture for students to go to college right out of high school. 65. So if you find yourself applying for college simply because it’s the thing to do after high school, think again. Going to college right after high school may be the norm in your community, but it’s not the norm everywhere and it may not be the best decision for you. 66. Yes, higher education often gives young people a big advantage in the working world, but not always. A solid technical or business school application can give you an advantage as well, and if the environment seems like a better one for you than a traditional college campus, this might be your best choice. A lot of people lead successful lives with a high school education and years of work experience. The price of a college or university education has become a serious burden for young people and their families. 67. In some cases, putting off college for a year or two while a student earns money full time can make sense. 68. 69. Almost all students suffer from homesickness, but for some students, the transition may be too much to deal with.
E. So students take massive amounts of loans, which can take decades to pay off. F. Many young people have other choices, like military service, work experience, community service or travel. G. The transition from high school to college is an emotional challenge for almost everybody, especially if you move away from home. 【答案】 70.F 71.C 72.E 73.D 74.G 【解析】 略 【题型】其他 【适用】较难 【标题】20102011学年吉林省长春十一中高一下学期期末考试英语题 【关键字标签】Are You Ready for College?，学习类 【结束】 17【题文】阅读下列每个句子，根据空白处的汉语提示，填入适当词汇。每空仅限一词。 75.Now the government is paying more attention to _____ (农业). 76.W out!

I suggested turning off the water tap immediately after using it, and a granny came up with the ideas of reusing the water from kitchen, for example, the water after washing fruits and vegetables can be used to water flowers and so on.

Although the ancient Games were held in Olympia, Greece, through 776 BC to 393 AD, it took 1503 years for the Olympics to return．The first modern Olympics were held in Athens, Greece, in 1896．The man responsible for its rebirth was a Frenchman named Baron Pierre de Coubertin, who presented the idea in 1894．His original thought was to hold the first modern Games in 1900 in Paris, but delegates from 34 countries were so devoted to the idea of holding it in Athens that they made him give up his original thought and move the Games up to 1896 and have Athens serve as the first host．
