The store also offers many services to overseas visitors, including shipping, translation and a personal shopping service. Au Printemps, whose name means springtime, hosts several free fashion shows each week. The stores beauty department has one of the worlds largest selections of perfumes.Galeries LafayetteTel: 01133014283 The Galeries Lafayette was built in 1906.

La Forum des Halles is next to the metro station C. the clothes in Le Bon Marche are usually very cheap D. the tea shop that is worth visiting is on the ninth floor of Galeries Lafayette BBike sharing have bee popular words in cities from Cape Town to Shanghai to Melbourne. Planners, politicians and media keep showing off their benefits: reducing pollution, congestion, travel costs and oil dependence, while improving public health. Bike sharing also helps make cities appear modern, dynamic and world-wide-qualities much sought after by the creative class. But what makes for a successful public bike-sharing program? This is an important question because installing one requires significant public and private investment and adjustment to the built environment. While many programs have been launched among much praise, often their popularity has soon declined. Many end up operating at a financial loss and depend on other profitable enterprises to cross-subsidize (交叉补贴) them. Some have resulted in thrown-away bikes being an eyesore. Understanding which factors enhance or stop public bike sharing is critical in helping cities decide whether such a program is workable, before considering what design and sitting will work best. Drawing on current knowledge, we discuss the importance of the local landscape, climate, cycling infrastructure (基础设施) and land use. We also touch on other factors, such as the legal environment and the characteristics of the bike-sharing program itself. Take natural environment for example. Two natural environment factors are known to affect participation: hilliness and weather. Hilliness discourages balanced bike-sharing use, as users avoid returning bicycles to stations on hilltops. Those stations end up being empty, while stations on flat areas are often full, so users cannot find a station to return their bikes. As for weather, ideal temperature ranges vary by the climate zone. Case studies show warm and dry weather encourages public bike-sharing use. Rain and strong wind reduce the frequency of trips. However, some approaches, such as providing sheltered, shaded, or even heated or cooled cycling infrastructure, could prove useful.24. What can we infer about bike sharing from Paragraph 1? A. It has no disadvantage.B. It is weled worldwide.C.It can solve every problem.D. It is the symbol of modern cities.25. What is the current situation of bike-sharing programs? A. Many of them run at a loss.B.Most of them make huge profits.C.They are the most promising business.D.Their development is determined by public investment.26. Why does the author mention the natural environment? A. To show users interest in various natural environment.B. To show the decisive function of natural environment.C. To show the necessity of bike-sharing programs.D. To show the significance of some factors.27. Which of the following might increase bike-sharing use? A. Hilliness. B.Attractive bikes. C.Rain and strong wind D. Perfect cycling infrastructure CRecently a study, led by Pedro Hallal of the Federal University, suggests that nearly a third of adults, 31%, are not getting enough exercise. That rates of exercise have declined is hardly a new discovery. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution, technology and economic growth have helped to create a world in which taking exercise is more and more an option rather than a necessity. But only recently have enough good data been collected from enough places to carry out the sort of analysis Dr Hallal and his colleagues have engaged in.There are mon themes in different places. Unsurprisingly, people in rich countries are less active than those in poor ones, and old people are less active than young ones. Less obviously, women tend to exercise less than men34% are inactive, pared with 28% of men. But there are exceptions. The women of Croatia, Finland, Iraq and Luxembourg, for example, move more than their male countrymen.Malta wins the race for most slothful country, with 72% of adults getting too little exercise, and Swaziland and Saudi Arabia are in close behind, with 69%. In Bangladesh, just 5% of adults fail to exercise enough. Surprisingly, six Americans in ten are active enough according to Dr Hallals study, pared with fewer than four in ten British. These high rates of inactivity are worrying. Human beings seem to have evolved to benefit from exercise while deliberately avoiding it whenever they can. In a state of nature it would be impossible to live a life that did not provide enough of it. But that is no longer the case. Actually lack of enough activity these days has nearly the same effect on life span as smoking. 28. We may learn from Paragraph 1 that _.A. the decline of exercise rates is newly discovered B. the study suggests 31% of female adults get too little exercise C. the industrial revolution has changed the way people live to some degreeD. the good enough data has been collected from only one country29. According to the study, women of Luxembourg _. A. have little time to exercise B. hate to get regular exerciseC. take more exercise to lose weightD. exercise more than men in their country30. The underlined word “slothful” in Paragraph 3 most probably means _.A. lazyB. richC. powerfulD. unpopular31. What can be the best title for the text? A. Benefits of Taking Exercise B. New Health DiscoveryC. Evolvement (发展)of Human Beings D. Worldwide Lack of Enough ExerciseDGetting stitched(缝合)up by Dr. Robot may one day be reality. Scientists have created a robotic system which did just that in living animals without a real doctor pulling the strings. Much like engineers are designing self-driving cars, the medical research is part of a move toward autonomous surgical robots, removing the surgeons hands from certain tasks that a machine might perform all by itself. Doctors wouldnt leave the bedside theyre supposed to watch. Plus theyd handle the rest of the surgery. In small tests using pigs, the robotic arm performed at least as well, and in some cases a bit better, as some peting surgeons in stitching together intestinal(肠的)tissue. “The purpose wasnt to replace surgeons, ”said Dr. Kim who led the project. “If you have all intelligent tool that works with a surgeon, can it improve the oute? Thats what we have done. ”If youve heard about machines like the popular Da Vinci system, you might think robots already are operating. Not really. Today many hospitals offer robot-assisted surgery where surgeons use the machinery as tools that they control by hand to operate through tiny openings in the body. But robot-assisted surgery has been controversial, as some studies have shown it can bring higher costs without better outes. Kims team at Childrens Sheikh Zayed Institute invented the new STAR systemit stands for Smart Tissue Autonomous Robotworks sort of like a programmable sewing machine. They added sensors to help guide each stitch and tell how tightly to pull. But the approach wasnt perfect. In the living animals, the robot took much longer and made a few stitching mistakes while the surgeon sewing by hand made none. Kim said the robot can be sped up. He hopes to begin human studies in two or three years. 32. Whats the best title for the text?A. A new robotic system B. A new-style way of stitchingC. The newly-designed driverless vehicles D. Robot surgeons one step closer to reality33. What will surgeons do when Dr. Robot is used in surgery?A. They can help pull the strings. B. They rest at the bedside. C. They join in when necessary. D. They perform another surgery. 34. Some people are against using robots in surgery probably because_. A. they can be out of control B. they will take shorter timeC. they may be expensive to use D. they are likely to cause great pain35. What can we infer from the text?A. Dr. Robot can take the place of surgeons. B. Dr. Robot will be improved. C. Dr. Robot has been tested with human trials. D. Dr. Robot can free doctors hands in the operation. 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白处的最佳选项, 选项中有两项为多余选项。Parents usually teach their children how to cross the street safety, by looking both ways for cars. 36 The city of Honolulu, Hawaii wants everyone to learn that lesson. 37 Beginning on October 24, you will be fined from 15 to 99 if you step into a Honolulu street while looking at your phone. Honolulu is the first major U.S. city to ban what is called “distracted walking”. It recently passed a law in a seven to two vote. The law says, “No pedestrian(步行者) shall cross a street or highway while viewing a mobile electronic device.” 38 The law includes all electronic devices with screens: cellphone, tablets, gaming devices, digital cameras and laptop puters. 39 Pedestrians may use such devices in the street to call emergency services and rescue workers, such as firefighters and police officers.Pedestrian deaths have been increasing as the use of cellphones rises. The Governors Highway Safety Association, or GHSA, says pedestrian deaths in the United States increased 25 percent xx and xx. That trend continued in xx with the number of pedestrian deaths rising to almost 6000, 11% higher than in xx. 40 The state of Washington was the first to outlaw distracted driving back in xx. Now, 46 other states as well as D. C. , Puerto Rico, Guam and the U. S. Virgin Islands, have laws against texting while driving.If you still want to text while walking, you could avoid being fined in Honolulu by using a voice-controlled digital assistant such as Siri or Google Assistant. Or you could just wait until you are again, safely, off the street.A. The law does permit an exception.B. Other U. S. cities may follow HonoluluC. But do they also teach them to put away their cellphones?D. Texting while crossing the street will soon be banned in the city.E. Do you like Honolulus new law that bans texting while walking?F.
