Amelia Earhart was flying alone from North America to England in a small single-engined aeroplane. At midnight, several hours after she had left Newfoundland, she ran into bad weather. To make things worse, her altimeter (高度表) failed and she didnt know how high she was flying. At night, and in a storm, a pilot is in great difficulty without an altimeter. At times, her plane nearly plunged (冲) into the sea. Just before dawn, there was further trouble. Amelia noticed flames (火焰) coming from the engine. Would she be able to reach land? There was nothing to do except to keep going and to hope. In the end, Amelia Earhart did reach Ireland, and for the courage she had shown, she was warmly welcomed in England and Europe.

What was so important about her flight? Amelia Earhart was the first woman to fly the Atlantic Ocean alone, and she had set a record of fourteen hours and fiftysix minutes.

We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an obvious example, Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is a relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brains capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change too: the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger. Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that mans eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald (光秃的).Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. But in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.28.The passage mainly tells us that _.A.humans neednt wear glasses in the future.B.mans life will be different in the future.C.future man will look quite different from us.D.man is growing taller and uglier as time passes.29.Which of the following is closest to the underlined word “assume” in Paragraph 2?A.predict B.think C.compete D.know30.It can be inferred from the passage that _.A. future life is always predictable (可预测的)B. human beings will become less attractive in the futureC. less use of a bodily organ (器官) may lead to its degeneration (退化)D. human beings hope for a change in the future life31.Future man will be similar to us in _.A.Colour and height B.size and appearanceC.thought and observation D.thought and emotionDHaving a smart phone may not be as smart as you think. They may let you surf the Internet, listen to music and take photos wherever you arebut they also turn you into a workaholic, it seems.A study suggests that, by giving you access to emails at all times, the smart phone adds as much as two hours to your working day. Experts found that British people work an additional 460 hours a year on average as they are able to respond to emails on their mobiles. The study shows the average UK working day is between 9 and 10 hours, but 2 more hours is spent responding to or sending work emails, or making work calls.Almost one in ten admits spending up to three hours outside their normal working day checking work emails. Some workers say they are on call almost 24 hours a day. Nearly two-thirds say they often check work emails just before they go to bed and as soon as they wake up, while over a third have replied to one in the middle of the night. The average time for first checking emails is between 6 a.m and 7 a.m, with more than a third checking their first email in the period, and a quarter checking them between 11p.m.and midnight.Ghadi Hobeika, marketing director of Pixmania, said: “The ability to access millions of Apps has made smart phone invaluable for many people. However, there are disadvantages. Many companies expect their employees to be on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and smart phones mean that people cannot get away from work. The more frequently in contact we become, the more is expected of us in a work capacity.”32. With a smart phone the average UK working day is _ .A 11 to 12 hours B 9 to 10 hours C 8 hours D 2 hours33. We can learn from the text that the British people _ .Aprefer to check emails in the morning Bare crazy about different smart phoneCwork more hours with smart phones Dshorten their normal working hours34. What does the underlined word “invaluable” mean?A. useless B. necessary C. expensive D. cheap35. What does Ghadi Hobeika feel about smart phones?AThey are unimportant for most of people. BThey have disadvantages for some companies.CThey are useful to improve a work ability. DThey make it impossible for people to rest.第二节（共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to teach kids responsibilityWed all like our kids to develop into responsible people.
