Four of his elves (小精灵)got38, and the trainee(学徒工)elves did not produce the toys as fast as the39ones, so Santa was

25、a warm summer afternoon. Youre cooking up the catch of the day over a campfire. Suddenly, a few raindrops fall on your arms, and before you know it, the sky is opened up. Then you hear what sounds like thunder in the distance. What should you do? Your tent is close by and would offer shelter(遮蔽)from

26、 the pouring rain. Theres a campsite picnic shelter a few minutes down the path. And then you remember that your car is parked down the road. Whats your safest choice to make sure you and your families are safe? Its a common question for many hikers and campers, especially when they are camping duri

27、ng summer months. Heading to your car is almost always the safest choice. Your tent and a picnic shelter will keep you dry, but they offer little or no protection against lightening. Your car, on the other hand, will keep you dry and protect 学习必备欢迎下载 you from lightening strikes. Protecting yourself

28、against possible lightening strikes is very important; lightening kills an average of 62 people in the US each year. If you keep all of the windows and doors closed in your car, youll be able to return to your campsite safely. Of course, if youre backpacking(背包旅行), not car camping, and youre deep in

29、 the woods, your car wont be a good choice. So, what should you do if your car is far away and theres no other safe shelter nearby? First, youll have to make sure that tree limbs or other objects don t fall on you or your campsite. Then you ll have to get in a safe position to avoid lightening, or f

30、lash flood conditions. What else should you do? 56. The passage aims to tell us _. A. whats campingB. how to camp safely C. car camping is the safest way when camping D. how to survive a storm when camping 57. To avoid lightening in a storm, youd better _. A. go into your tent quickly B. cook up the

31、 catch of the day over a campfire C. get into your car and return to your campsite D. run into a campsite picnic shelter at once 58. From the last paragraph we can infer _. A. when camping learning to protect oneself is very important B. people should never camp deep in the woods C. backpacking is n

32、ot a good choice for campers D. people should not go camping alone 59. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Campers like car camping best. B. Young people like backpacking best. C. Lightening is a danger for campers. D. Camping during summer months is the most popular. B Recently Chinese society has s

33、een a flowering of a new vocabulary. Perhaps the most interesting has been the division of people into tribes (zu in Chinese). The pains of the yi zu, or the ant tribe, have been well-known - recent graduates from outside the main cities who move to urban areas, live cheaply and work hard, often in

34、low-paid jobs. Perhaps less well-known are the ken lao zu, the bite-the-old tribe, those between 25 and 35 who are out of work, still at home and depending completely on Mum and Dad. Many of the tribes, inevitably（必然地）, are made up of people looking for love. There is the jia wan zu, the marry-the-b

35、owl tribe. These are young women searching for the most stable husbands, the ones who hold government jobs. The shan hun zu, or lightening-marriage tribe, marry fast and sometimes separate faster. They should not be confused with the yin hun zu, the hidden-marriage tribe. These are women in their 20

36、s who hide the fact that they are married. And if you can only afford a postage stamp of an apartment, youre probably a member of the wo ju zu, the snail-house tribe. You can belong to more than one tribe. Most membersof the ant tribe also belong to the ben ben zu, the rush-rush tribe, to which, in

37、fact, most urban Chinese belong. All that rushing around can create a lot of anger, leading to the nie nie zu, the crush-crush tribe, so named because they go into supermarkets and take out their anger by standing in the passages crushing packets of instant noodles. Another famous one is the yue gua

38、ng zu, or moonlight tribe, so named because the Chinese characters for “moonlight” sound the same as the phrase “spend all your monthly salary ”. Their parents save every coin, but life for these young people is just to spend, spend and spend. 60. Who probably belong to the ant tribe? A. Graduates i

39、n their 20s.B. Young women looking for love. C. People between 25 and 35.D. Graduates from the countryside . 61. If you live on your parents, you are a member of _. A. the bite-the-old tribeB. the ant tribe C. the marry-the-bowl tribeD. the snail-house tribe 学习必备欢迎下载 62. Most young people in the big

40、 city have to _. A. depend completely on Mum and DadB. rush around to make a living C. hide the fact that they are marriedD. spend all their monthly salary 63. Whats the best title for the passage? A. Chinese recent societyB. Chinas most famous tribe C. Chinas new tribesD. The young people in cities

41、 C The students were not exactly overjoyed that Steve Jobs was going to be the speaker. Everyone wanted Bill Clinton. After all, his daughter Chelsea had gone to school at Stanford. So every year that Clinton was not named speaker was a disappointment no matter who it was. Graduation is not in order

42、. It wasn t until we started walking into the stadium that I even realized thatIm actually graduating right now. Stanford has this tradition, the wacky( 古怪的)walk, where everyone dresses up in different clothes or throws Frisbees or beach balls. Im from the South so I had a seersucker suit shipped in

43、 from back home in Georgia. Some other guys dressed up as iPods. It was good fun. That was an interesting contrast( 对比)to Jobs speech. He started talking about being fired from Apple and then having cancer, how doctors told him he was going to die and how he was adopted as a baby into a family with

44、parents who never went to college - an unusual experience that played out over his life. His speech was very raw and very open. He told us that he gets up every morning and looks in the mirror and asks“If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today? ” “If the a

45、nswer is not for too many days in a row ”, he said, “its time to make a change. That has really driven a lot of my decisions since then. WhenIve reached certain points in my job where Im not very excited to get to work early or stay late or work on something over the weekend or all night. When I los

46、e that excitement then its probably not the right thing for me anymore”. He said, “Your time is limited, so dont waste it living someone elses life.” Exactly.Death is a great motivator. You have to get out there and do something because some day you won t be there. Of all the advice Ive received I r

47、ely on that the most. 64. The students went into the stadium to _. A. dress up in different clothes B. listen to the speech C. have the wacky walk D. throw Frisbees or beach balls 65. The underlined word“It” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to _. A. the stadiumB. the iPodC. the suitD. this tradition 6

What is the most important for Jobs in doing things? A. Decisions.B. Excitement.C.

49、Death.D. Devotion. D An upper class British lady once declared: “ Anyone seen on a bus after the age of 30 has been a failure in life.” This may sound arrogant （傲慢） and ignorant. Unfortunately, there are still people thinking that way. Some wealthy folk in the West look down on buses and boast about

50、 how many years it has been since they last travelled by one. How sad is that? Our roads are packed with cars and the air is full of the pollution they emit. But still, many car users are unwillingly to get on a bus or a bike or a train to take themselves to work. Its convenient to drive, theyll say

51、. Buses are so unreliable, theyll claim. And trains are expensive at least in the UK. Its an attitude which may have to change. It doesnt make sense to drive a car in a city where theres a public transport system. Also, these rush hour commuters(往返上班者)usually travel alone. As a result, transport aut

52、horities in the UK are looking at solutions to city center congestion( 拥堵). One is to increase the number of parking spaces at out-of-town railway stations. More motorists can then leave their cars 学习必备欢迎下载 and travel into the city by train. Light rail or tramways are another environmentally friendl

53、y solution. Many cities across Europe have had light rail or tramway systems. The subway in London is used by everyone, rich and poor. Its the quickest way of getting around the city, whateveryour bank balance. And then there are the cycle hire plans you find in many modern cities. In London and Par

54、is, you can hire a bike by the hour to get you where you need to go. Mayor of London, BorisJohnson,isoftenpictured cyclingto work. David Cameron, theBritish prime minister, cycled to the House of Commons before he became leader. 68. Whats the implied meaning of the underlined sentence in the first p

55、aragraph? A. If a person above 30 can travel on a bus, he was successful. B. If a person above 30 cannot travel on a bus, he has failed in his life. C. If you are middle-aged and dont have a car, then you are a loser. D. If the middle-aged often travel by bus, they will be losers. 69. Which of the f

David Cameron keeps driving to work all the time. C. Prime Minister is a good example in the campaign. D. More people are taking different m

58、ethods to better the environment. E History is full of cases where dreams have been a pathway to creativity and discovery. A striking example is providedby Dr.OttoLoewi,a pharmacologist(药理学家)andwinnerof a Nobel Prize. Loewi had spentyears studying the chemical transmission(传送) of nerve impulses (脉搏)

59、. A major breakthrough in his research came when he dreamed of an experiment three nights in a row. On the first two nights he woke up and wrote down the experiment quickly and untidily on paper.But the next morning, he couldn t tell what the notes meant. On the third night, he got up after having the dream. This time, instead of making notes he went straight to his laboratory and performed the important experiment. Loewi later said that i
