Halfway along is Selfridges, one of the worlds first department stores where the architecture and window dressing impress even before you go in. There are at least four other major stores on this street, plus Europes largest music shop. In December the atmosphere is especially festive because of the Christmas lights which are always lighted by a politician, a great sportsman, or a super star.Kensington High StreetA fashionable area for shopping is Kensington High Street. One of its department stores even has a roof garden-good for relaxing between purchases. Theres also an organic food superstore.:.Borough Market You cant visit London and not go to a supermarket. One of the oldest and best for food is probably Borough Market on the south bank of the Thames. Get off the underground at LondonBridge and wander among fresh fish stalls, bakeries, and fruit and vegetable sellers. You can also buy specialist food to take away, like cheeses, pork pies, mustard and chutney.More places for bargainsPortobello Road on a Saturday is your best choice for jewelry or collectors items.

A news report.BI watch documentaries, not moviesI read history books, not fictionI use every free moment to accomplish one of the tasks on my never-ending checklist, and I am completely filled with thoughts of productivityAn hour sleeping is an hour wastedAnd like the rest of 21st century America, I like itBut this fixation on productivity is increasingly destroying character and transforming men into robots.New York Times columnist David Brooks warned American University students of this cultural decline in a speech“We cut off all things spiritual and emotional in a competitive urge to stand out”, he said, “The pressure to succeed professionally, to acquire skills, to do the things you need to do to succeed in an information age economy really became the overwhelming（难以应付的） pressures, and it sort of eclipses the thinking about character and morality.”Many students happily go to college, viewing it as a next step on their rise to professional achievementForcing as many success-building activities into their schedules as they can, they enjoy keeping busy with little sleep“Todays outstanding kids are likely to spend their afternoons and weekends shuttling from one skill-improving activity to the next,” Brooks wrote in an article, “We fear failure more than we desire success.”A century ago, college was about character buildingToday, our characters are in declineWe are experts on economics, material things and professional skillsWe fail to discuss and understand relationships, emotions and all things spiritualPhilosopher Karl Popper divided the world into two categories: Clocks and CloudsClock problems are those that can be taken apart, examined and solved through deductive reasoning（演绎推理）Clouds cannot be taken apartCloud problems represent whole systems that need to be understood in a different way.“When we have a Cloud problem, we try to turn it into a Clock problem,” Brooks saidAnd in a reason-centered culture, adding titles to ones resume becomes a trendAt AmericanUniversity, 85 percent of seniors (and 89 percent of business majors) graduate with at least one practical experience which is often helpful to a students future career, but can sometimes draw focus away from academics.:.To prevent the death of mans character, Brooks urges rediscovering our human natures through falling in loveAnd by love he means love for a task, job, or another person“Synchronicity is key to happiness,” he saidRather than crazily increasing our long lists of accomplishments, we need to lose ourselves in what we do, and success will come on its own.24From Paragraph 1, we can learn that people _.Aare controlled by timeBare keen on reading booksCare changing their charactersDare eager to achieve more25In Paragraph 2, the underlined word “eclipses” means _.Adeletes BweakensCworsens Demphasizes26The last paragraph mainly tells us that _Alove is more important than focusBthe focus on human natures countsCmore work contributes to happinessDsuccess comes from devotion to work27The purpose of this passage is to _.Abring awareness to character buildingBstress the importance of productivityCwarn about the pressure to seek successDcriticize students desire for achievementsCIn 1988, a company in Ohio invented an alcohol-based hand cleaner, which was meant to be used by health-care worker; when soap and water were unavailable. Joe Kanfer, the companys C. E. O., told me recently, “there were a couple of other alcohol products out there, but they were really ugly. Either they were greasy (油腻的) or they burned your hands white.” Kanfer took a year and a half to develop this product which is visually appealing and does almost no harm to ones skin. Still. Kanfer lost money on it for more than a decade because people couldnt get what it was for. The product was called Purell. Today, you see it everywhere. My doctor uses it several times during every office visit. You canhear it in almost every office in the U. S. and school picnics would be impossible without it. The former president GrorgeW.Bush was called a racist for using hand cleaner after first shaking hands with Barack Obama, but Bush also gave some of it to Obama and recommended it as a cold preventative (预防药). What was oncebarely even a product is now a growing product category, worth hundreds of millions per year.The rise of Purell makes some health professionals uneasy.Some claimed that promoting hand cleaner may worsen “our cultures irrational (非理性的) fear about bacteria.” Still, the clear agreement among experts is that unclean hands pose a serious health risk, and are one of the main reasons in the spread of infections in hospitals. A 2007 study estimated that, in America in 2002, such infections resulted in more than a million and a half patient illnesses and caused or contributed to nearly a hundred thousand patient deaths - about double the number of U. S.deaths currently caused each year by AIDS and guns combined.However, I asked a food microbiologist whether clean hands might have a medical drawback. He said,“We might have a much healthier population if we adopted the kinds of condition that we see in many Third World countries, with poor-quality food and poor-quality water and lots of bacteria. If we did that, we would have adults who were very healthy and have very strong immune systems. Unfortunately, the price that we would pay would be extremely high child death rate. ”28. Why did Joe Kanfer lose money on his product according to Paragraph 1? A. Because people didnt think it useful. B. Because people thought it was ugly. C. Because it was harmful to the skin. D. Because it burned the hands white.:29. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. Purell brings in lots of money for Kanfer. B. Purell has been widely used in the US. C. Purell is a cold preventative. D. Purell meets different needs.30. What mainly caused patient deaths according to the figures in Paragraph 3? A. Peoples fear about bacteria. B. Hand cleaner. C. Bacteria on the dirty hands. D. AIDS and guns.31. What can we learn about the people in Third World countries? A. They adopt healthy living habits. B. They have poor immune systems. C. They eat food with fewerbacteria. D. Their child death rate remains high.DWelcome to the world of multitaskinga place where the measure of a person is how many jobs they can perform at the same time.In fact，if experts are to be believed，multitasking is a disastrous idea.One of the opponents of multitasking is Dr.CliffordNass，a professor at Stanford University.“People who multitask frequently are less able to pay attention；theyre worse at managing their memory.” he said.In his opinion，the loss that we get with multitasking is harmless in some situations，for example，part of doing business in the digital world；but you cant do serious work like writing，thinking or solving an important problem this way.You do worse even as you think youre doing better.All the time the research points to a simple fact：the brain cannot cope.When you stop midway through composing a report to check an email，you force your brain to stop and regroup.It is like pressing the pause button during a movie，meaning the film takes longer to watch.And as for Dr.Nass，the problems extend beyond the brain.Young people who frequently multitask are not as socially and emotionally healthy as those who dont.They just feel more emotionally satisfied and the feeling is so good and they are bound to desire it again.Todd Oppenheimer，a writer said “Weve become a very shortterm society and dont reward people for taking a lot of time on something.” He fears we may end up losing the next generation of great thinkers.“Its really unfortunate because the longterm challenges of our world environmental issues，financial issues require people to think wisely about the longterm consequences of what they do.And its no coincidence that the kind of people who do think longterm dont multitask.”32According to Dr.Nass，multitasking _Amakes the performance emotionally affected onlyBcontributes to memorizing various thingsCmay result in losing the next generation of great thinkersDcan be performed using digital tools33From the passage，we can tell _Athe loss that we get with multitasking is harmlessBwe mistakenly believe that were doing better by switching between tasksCmultitasking does harm to us in every areaDfor every task you add to your multitasking，you can finish your goal more quickly34Which of the following is a multitasking addict?AYou turn your cellphone to silence when youre out to dine with friends.BYou watch from start to finish without distraction when playing a DVD.CYou have your office desk covered with paperwork from various unfinished projects.DYou feel that when you try to do too much at once，the result always suffers.35The author mainly wants to tell us _Athe less you switch，the better you doBit is more efficient to do things all in a mixed wayCit takes longer for us to become a great thinkerDwe shouldnt be lazy if we want to accomplish many tasks第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空向处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Whether youre a child, teenager, young adult or are middle-aged, respect youre your parents is an important value. Your parents are the people who raised you, devoting time, energy and money to your development. 36No matter your age, there are 5 ways to show respect.Respect their belongings.
