a. people couldnt find the registered bicycles. b. some people couldnt dock bikes properly. c. docking station is not enough at all. d. the charges for hiring bikes are too high.23. what does the underlined phrase probably mean? a. difficulties in carrying out a plan. b. criticism from all the people. c. tooth decays or other tooth diseases. d. quarrels from both sides.24. london mayors attitude towards the new bike hire scheme is probably_. a. doubtful b. optimistic c. indifferent d. critical b315millions of sports lovers are still thinking about one thing-the winter olympics in sochi russia. close to 2900 men and women competed in the 2014 winter games about a month ago.the olympics brought a lot of attention to sochi, a city on the black sea, which is a popular area for vacation travelers. the area is known for its mild winters.at least $50 billion was spent on the 2014 winter games, making it the costliest olympics in history. seven billion dollars was spent on the 2010 winter games in vancouver, canada. olympic officials chose sochi to host the 2014 games almost seven years ago. at that time, russian president vladimir putin said the games would cost about $13 billion. yet the actual expenses exceeded his estimate. so where did all the money go? some observers say the high cost is partly the result of security measures. brian jenkins, a terrorism expert from the rand corporation, gave the following explanation. there were anywhere between 70,000 and 100, 000 policemen and military troops deployed around the city. the main threat came from separatist and islamist groups from the north caucasus, especially from chechnya and dagestan. one group claimed responsibility for two suicide bombings in volgograd last december. the attacks killed more than 30 people. the city is only about 600 kilometers away from sochi. bruce hoffman is a terrorism expert from georgetown university in washington dc. he says the increased security made sochi a difficult target for terrorists. it is thought that the terrorists intention was to make life difficult for the russians and to create some sort of incident that would take away the enjoyment.the last olympians from around the world on russian soil were in 1980. that was a year after soviet troops invaded afghanistan. more than sixty countries didnt take part in the moscow summer games to show their anger.25. according to the passage, why did the sochi winter olympics cost so much?a. because it was held at an area popular for vacation travelers.b. because the russian government wanted to make it the best ever held.c. because security measures at sochi were stricter than before.d. because the original plan was made 7 years before.26. it can be known from the passage that bruce hoffman was .a. a terrorism expert from the usab. the writer who wrote this articlec. an athlete who competed in sochid. a terrorism expert from rand corporation27. which of the following is false? a. sochi olympics cost about 4 times as estimated. b. next winter olympics will be held in vancouver. c. many countries refused to attend the 1980 olympics. d. security is often a problem in international sport games.28. the terrorists might have attacked sochi olympics because . a. they wanted to make trouble for the russians b. they thought russia shouldnt spend so much on sport c. they thought putin was not a nice president d. they were not interested in winter sports c334when jane put out the idea of homeschooling to her parents, the first reaction they gave was, “you are cutting the child off the world. “did the child really get cut off or did the child socialize better?”the moment we hear of homeschooling, we think the child will have no opportunities to interact with peers. however, in my friends opinion, we forget that when attending a regular school, the child is not into socializing all the while. the child is restricted to so many other activities. studies take a major role in a childs life. the child hardly has the time to interact at school.the child might be meeting and studying along with many peers; however, how many kids interact with all the kids in a class? but in homeschooling system, as my friend mentioned, the kid has all the time and can plan his day accordingly. during the day the child studies just like other school-going kids but with no burden of homework and project work, the child has so much free time in the evening as to effectively interact and play with peers. the quality time the child spends in education is really impressive.homeschooled kids have the opportunity to socialize more often as they have a lot of time in their hands. they can also make socializing a regular habit. just as my friend said, her child goes to a neighboring park almost every day and has a set of friends who go there daily. other children get back home to finish off homework and project work whereas her child who is already through with studies gets the opportunity to spend time with family members.when i heard this, i really felt how lucky the child was. definitely the child had a better opportunity to socialize when compared with my kid. however, i might not consider homeschooling for my kid, as i am so used to the conventional schooling system and feel regular schooling the safest bet. zxlmm29. the authors purpose in writing the passage is to_.a. express his views on homeschoolingb. explain what homeschooling isc. share his ways of teaching his childrend. promote homeschooling30. what is the biggest advantage of homeschooled children? a. they will become braver.b. they can be more popular. c. they can socialize better.d. they will know how to arrange time. 31. what do we know about homeschooled children?a. they dont interact with their peers often. b. they have more spare time to play.c. they are restricted to certain activities d. they cant gain enough knowledge.32. how does the passage mainly develop?a. by following the order of importance. b. by following the order of time.c. by making comparisons. d. by presenting data.d290there is an agreement that we are depriving (剥夺) this current generation of young kids a chance to do what they are not only equipped to do，but need to do一take some risksand were not talking about unimportant ones，eitherkids need to learn how to handle “dangerous” things like power tools，make fires，and have the benefits that occur from “playing with knives” hanna rosin focuses on some of the misguided reasons we are raising “the overprotected kid” in the atlanticshe says our concerns with kids safety go beyond the actual risks i agree with this new opinion. for many kids growing up today，there are fewer and fewer opportunities to practice risk takingrisk taking is an important skill every kid needs to learn，how to do something that they are a little seared of doing because they havent done it beforepart of the reason for “overprotection” is certainly the parental fear. this is certainly evident in terms of the physical environment i claim that much of the parental concern isnt driven byfear of injuryits more about concern with success “play” may be in fact less dangerous than our structured sports-yet we focus more on the risk because we dont see the benefitand this broader concern with success is not limited to the playground or sports field“overprotection certainly happens in the social and academic fields as well，as phrases like “helicopter parent” have become mainstreamthere is plenty of social and academic risk taking that can also be prevented because of the perception of risk33. according to paragraph 1, the author thinks todays children_a. arent as happy as their parents b. ignore the benefits from taking risks c. live an overprotected life due to parental care d. hate to take some risks for their development34. which of the following would hanna rosin agree with?a. not all kids can play on the playground aloneb. the review of the statistics details the danger of injuryc. parents should take care of the kids in case they are lostd. parents concerns with kids safety arent actually necessary mostly35. which of the following are “helicopter parents” according to the passage?a. those who help their children take responsibility for their own actionb. those who find out the important elements of a healthy developmentc. those who give advice on how to find their own sense of creativityd. those who offer any help whenever their children are in need第二节(共5小题：每小题2分，满分l0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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。(特别提醒：若非网上阅卷，如选e，请在答题卡上同时涂黑ab，同理可知：f=ac，g=ad)with the development of society，it is common that many people are rushing all the way and all day，tired and subhealthy (亚健康) 36 she described all the things she had to doone was to make her bedfrom the moment she woke up until she flew out of the door for worki suggested she experiment by not making her bed for two weeksshe was shocked，probably thinking id been brought up by wolves in a forest 37 two weeks later she went into my office merrilyshe had left her bed unmade for the first time in 42 yearsand nothing bad had happened“and you know what?” she said“i dont dry my dishes anymore，either” 38 one was discovering that she had choices in her life that she had never seen beforethe other was giving herself permission to be less than perfectthis story shows an important principle about managing time：no one can do it a11each of us has to make choices and accept trade-offs(利弊权衡)the problem is that many people choose in ways that put themselves and their health lastthey take better care of their houses and cars than they do of themselves 39 so what is the solution?
