(2011·安徽卷)A

Passage 1

The Information Highway is the road that links computer users to a large number of on-line services: the Web, e-mail, and software, to mention just a few. Not long ago, the Information Highway was a new road, with not many users. Now, everyone seems to want to take a drive, with over 30 million families connected worldwide. Not surprisingly, this well-traveled highway is starting to look like a well-traveled highway. Traffic jams can cause many serious problems, forcing the system to close down for repair. Naturally, accidents will happen on such a crowed road, and usually victims are some files, gone forever. Then, of course, there’s Mr. Cool, with his new broad-band connection, who speeds down the highway faster than most of us can go. But don’t trick yourself; he pays for that speeding.

Passage 2

Want to know more about global warming and how you can help prevent it? Doctor Herman Friedman, who is considered a leading expert on the subject, will speak at Grayson Hall next Friday. Friedman studied environmental science at three well-known universities around the world before becoming a professor in the subject. He has also traveled around the world observing environmental concerns. The gradual bleaching (变白) of the Great Barrier Reef, which came into the public eye in 2002, is his latest interest. Signed copies of his colorful book, which was published just last month, will be on sale after his talk.

     You may ride on your bicycle in a rush to get to school every morning. You may fight to get a bit of space
on a bus or on the subway.   1         
     No matter where you are, all big cities around the world have traffic jams these days. But although they all
have their problems, many cities also have a type of transport (交通) that has become a cultural icon (圣像).
     In London, to avoid the traffic above ground, people use the "underground",also called the"tube".   2   With
12 lines and 275 stations across the city, the tube, is normally the quickest and easiest way of getting around
London. In London, you are never far from a tube station.
       3   They serve as a quick and easy way of getting across Manhattan, where the subway doesn't take you
everywhere. Stopping a cab is easy; just stick out your arm like you do in any city. But, with over 12,000
yellow cabs in the Big Apple, they also cause traffic jams.
     Since 1873 when the first cable car started public service, the slow and noisy vehicle has been a symbol of
San Francisco. The city was once damaged by a serious earthquake (地震) and challenged (挑战,考验) by cars.   4    
     But there are no such symbols in Los Angeles. If you visit you' d better rent a car.    5   It can take hours
to get across town by bus. The subway covers just a small part of the city center. The light rail line only runs
between the Long Beach hotel area and the city center. That' s why Angelenos love their private cars more than
any other people in the world.
A. However, it is never caught in traffic jams and provides better views than the subway.
B. You may also watch taxis crawl their way through traffic jams.
C. The city has the oldest and most complicated (复杂的 ) underground railway system in
    the world and is the pride of many Londoners.
D. The city' s public transportation is terrible.
E. As darkness fell, hundreds of people in the village left their houses.
F. New York is famous for its yellow cabs.
