| In many parts of the world, cars play an important role in daily life and many societies would not exist without them. 1_____ But this is the prediction made by a team of transport researchers who are taken seriously, not only by government but also by car manufacturers. The Human Science and Advanced Technology Institute at Loughborough in the UK is part of an international research program. 2_____ That will mean much saving, no accidents and better use of roads. The super-intelligent car of the 21st century will drive itself, 3_____ Instead, we will have a choice of cars and change them as frequently as we change our clothing. According to Dr. David Davis, who leads the research team, these predictions are based on the rising cost of the car culture, which had blocked up our cities, polluted our air, and caused more deaths than both world wars put together. Davis says, cars will be fitted with some intelligent devices (装置) to regulate (调节) the distance between one car and another. 4_____ Computers are much safer drivers than people, so cars in a road train will be able to drive much closer together than cars driven by people. By 2020, Dr. David Davis believes,car technology will give motorists a clear view of the road, whatever the weather conditions, by projecting an image (影像) of the road ahead on to the car's wind-screen. 5_____ Cars will be connected by an electronic tow bar to the car in front to form" road-trains". "The front vehicle in such a train burns the normal amount." says Davis. "But all the others in the train would burn about ten percent of the normal amount, and so produce about ten percent of the pollution." |

And by 2030, cars will travel in line, linked to each other electronically. E. So the idea that in 20 years' time, no one will own cars may be hard to believe. F. Every driver will use less fuel in the car he owns. G. The car will automatically speed up, or slow down, to match the speed of the car in front. |

| Almost all parents in China hope their son or daughter will have happy future. They are very strict with their children, and so do teachers in schools!

| Recently, one of my best friends, whom I've shared just about everything with since the first day of kindergarten, spent the week- end with me. Since I moved to a new town several years ago, we've both always 1 the few times a year when we can see each other. Over the 2 , we spent hours and hours, staying up late into the night, talking about the people she was 3 around with. She started telling me stories about her new boyfriend, about how he experimented with 4 and was into other 5 behavior. I was blown away! She told me how she had been 6 to her parents about where she was going and even sneaking out to see this guy because they didn't want her 7 him. No matter how hard I tried to tell her that she 8 better, she didn't believe me. Her self-respect seemed to have disappeared. I tried to 9 her that she was ruining her future and heading for big trouble. I felt like I was getting 10 . I just couldn't believe that she really thought it was 11 to hang with a bunch of losers, especially her boyfriend. By the time she left, I was really worried about her and 12 by the experience. It had been so frustrating, I had come 13 to telling her several times during the weekend that maybe we had just grown too far apart to 14 our friendship-but I didn't. I put the power of 15 to the ultimate test. We'd been friends for far too long. The chance was that she 16 me enough to know that I was trying to save her from hurting herself. I wanted to believe that our friendship could 17 anything. A few days later, she called to say that she had thought long and hard about our 18 , and then she told me that she had 19 with her boyfriend. I just listened on the other end of the phone with tears of joy running down my face. It was one of the truly 20 moments in my life. Never had I been so proud of a friend. | ||||

| The English, as a race, are very different in many ways from all other nationalities, including their closest neighbors, the French, the Belgians and the Dutch. It is claimed that living on an island separated from the rest of Europe has much to do with it. Whatever the reasons are, it may be fairly stated that the Englishman has developed many attitudes and habits which distinguish him from other nationalities. Broadly speaking, the Englishman is a quiet, shy, reserved person who is fully relaxed only among people he knows well. In the presence of strangers or foreigners he often seems restrained, even embarrassed. You have only to witness a city train any morning or evening to see the truth of this. Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or having a light sleep in a corner, and no one speaks. In fact, to do so would seem most unusual. An Englishman, pretending to be giving advice to overseas visitors, once suggested, "On entering a railway carriage, shake hands with all the passengers." Needless to say, he was not being serious. There is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior which, if broken, makes the person immediately suspected. In many parts of the world it is quite normal to show openly extremes of enthusiasm, emotion, excitement, etc., often accompanied by appropriate gesture. The Englishman is somewhat different. Of course, an Englishman feels no less deeply than anyone of a different nationality, but he tends to display his feelings far less. This is reflected in his use of language. Imagine a man commenting on the great beauty of a young girl. A more emotional man might de- scribe her state "Oh, she is a goddess", whereas an Englishman might just say "Oh, she's all right." An Englishman who has seen a highly successful and enjoyable film recommends it to a friend by commenting, "It's not bad you know", or on seeing some very unusual scenery he might convey (表达) his pleasure by saying," Nice, yes, very nice." The overseas visitor must not be disappointed by this apparent lack of interest and involvement. Instead, he must realize that "all right," "not bad," and "nice," very often have the sense of "first-class," "excellent," "beautiful". This unique style of language use is particularly common in England, and is known as restrained statement. |
| 1. According to the passage, the English are different from other nationalities in _____. |
| A. habits B. attitudes C. character D. all of the above |
| 2. The underlined word "restrained" in the second paragraph probably means "_____". |
| A. calm and controlled B. polite and friendly C. nervous and quiet D. silent and kind |
| 3. In Britain, if you don't want other people to think you are strange, you'd better _____. |
| A. talk with others as much as possible B. behave just like the English do C. say nothing about yourself D. shake hands with everyone you meet |
| 4. If an Englishman says "all right", it may mean "_____". |
| A. not bad B. correct C. quite right D. wonderful |
| 5. From the passage, we can infer that an Englishman _____. |
| A. doesn't like to show his feelings so much B. has less emotion than people of other nationalities C. finds it easy to express his emotion D. likes to have a joke with strangers |

| In the West, advertisements are the fuel that makes mass media work. Many TV stations, newspapers, magazines, radio stations are privately (私下地) owned. The government does not give them money. So where does the money come from? From advertisements. Without advertisements, there would not be these private businesses. Have you ever asked yourself what advertising is? Through the years, people have given different answers to the question. For some time it was felt that advertising was a means of "keeping your name before the public". And some people thought that advertising was "truth well told". Now more and more people consider it in this way: Advertising is the paid, non-personal, and usually persuasive presentation of goods, services and ideas by some certain sponsors (赞助商) through various media. First, advertising is usually paid for. Various sponsors pay for the advertisements we see, read, and hear over the various media. Second, advertising is non-personal. It is not face-to-face communication. Although you may feel that a message in a certain advertisement is aimed directly at you, in fact, it is directed at large groups of people. Third, advertising is usually persuasive. Directly or indirectly it asks people to do something. All advertisements try to make people believe that the product, idea, or service advertised can benefit them. Fourth, the sponsors of the advertisement must show their names. From the advertisement, we can see if the sponsor is a company, or a single person. Fifth, advertising reaches us through old and modern mass media. Included in the old media are newspapers, magazines, radio, television, and films. Modern media include emails, matchbox covers, and boards on top of buildings. |
| 1. The existence of the privately owned mass media depends on the support of ____. |
| A. the government B. their owners' families C. advertisements D. the TV stations |
| 2. The passage seems to say that different ideas of advertising are given due to ____. |

| 3. Which of the following is considered modern mass media? |
| A. Newspapers B. Emails C. Magazines D. Films |
| 4. According to the passage, which of the following statements about advertisements i8 NOT true? |
| A. The sponsors are always mentioned. B. Advertising must be honest and humorous. C. There is the description of things advertised. D. Advertising is meant for large groups of people. |

| Flying over a desert in an airplane, two scientists looked down with trained eyes at trees and bushes. After an hour's flight one of the scientists wrote in his notebook, "Look here for probable metal." Walking across hilly ground, four scientists reported, "This ground should be searched for metal." From an airplane over a hilly wasteland a scientist sent back by radio one word "Uranium". None of the scientists had X-ray eyes: they had no magic powers for looking down below the earth's surface. They were merely putting to use one of the newest methods of locating minerals in the ground-using trees and plants as signs that certain minerals may lie under the ground on which the trees and plants are growing. This newest method of searching for minerals is based on the fact that minerals deep in the earth may affect the kind of bushes and trees that grow on the surface. At Watson Bar Creek, a mineral search group gathered bags of tree seeds. Boxes were filled with small branches from the trees. Roots were dug and put into boxes. Each bag and box was carefully marked. In a scientific laboratory the parts of the forest trees were burned to ashes and tested. Each small part was examined to learn whether there were minerals in it. Study of the roots, branches and seeds showed no silver. But there were small amount of gold in the roots and a little less gold in the branches and seeds. The seeds growing nearest to the tree trunk had more gold than those growing on the ends of the branches. If the trees indicated that there was no gold in the ground, the scientists wouldn't spare money to pay for digging into the ground. |
| 1. Scientists were flying over a desert or a hilly wasteland or a mountain region to ____. |
| A. train their eyes B. study the trees C. look for gold D. search for minerals |
| 2. The study of trees, branches and roots indicated that ____. |
| A. there were larger amounts of gold in the branches far from the tree trunk than in the seeds B. there were smaller amounts of gold in the tree roots deep in the ground than in the branches C. there were larger amounts of gold in the seeds growing closer to the tree trunk than in the seeds farther from it D. there were larger amounts of gold in the branches than in the leaves on the ends of the branches |
| 3. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as part of a tree that can help the searchers? |
| A. Leaves. B. Roots. C. Branches. D. Seeds. |
| 4. Which of the following might be the best title for this passage? |
| A. Scientists searching for treasure with special equipment. B. New methods of doing geological study. C. Gold could be found in trees and plants. D. A new method of searching for minerals. |
