阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

I stayed for a while in Costa Rica years ago. One morning I was shopping in a local farmers mar- ket. I loved that market. The selection of produce was exceptional!

I had parked my car a few blocks away at Firestone. An hour into my shopping, I reached in my purse for my phone. I dug around searching and searching ... no phone!

I had butterflies in my stomach since the zipper(拉链) was not zipped on my bag and perhaps my phone fell out or got picked up by wondering hands.

I went around to all the venders (摊主) I had visited asking if they had come across a lost iPhone. But no such luck.

Disappointed, I walked out of the market with all my fresh organic produce. In front of me was an older lady walking slowly with a heavy bag in each hand. I observed many people passing her. At first I thought of doing the same, as I was worried about my phone. But then I heard a voice in my heart say- ing "help her".

In Spanish, I asked the old lady if I could give her a hand. She gladly handed me a bag and we walked on. She was probably in her late 70s and the bag I took from her was full of

produce. She asked about my family and my job. My Sparush was far from perfect. I tried to explain to her but I was not sure whether she understood.

As we came to a street comer, we had to walk in opposite directions. My mind wondered for a mo- ment and then I decided to go on helping the lady. I saw a warm smile of gratefulness on her face, which also warmed my own heart.

After a few more blocks we came to her destination. I couldn't imagine her walking so far with two heavy bags all alone!

I walked all the way back to my car at Firestone. I unlocked my door and sitting between the seats right in view was my iPhone!

21. Why did the author prefer the local farmers market?

A. The venders were very friendly. B. The market was near her home.

C. The produce was inexpensive. D. The produce was of good quality.

22. When did the author find her iPhone missing?【i,stayed,for,a,while,in,costa,rica】

A. After she had shopped for an hour B. When she was paying for her produce.

C. After she had parked her car at Firestone. D. When she was walking into the market.

23. What prevented the author communicating smoothly with the old lady?

A. The old lady's accent. B. The old lady's age.

C. The author's poor Spanish. D. Their different cultures.

24. What kind of person is the author?

A. Warm-hearted and clever. B. Kind but careless.

C. Religious and helpful. D. Smart but thoughtless. B

The way we cook is important. In many countries, the two sources of heat used for cooking are nat- ural gas or electric stoves. The World Health Organization (WHO) warns that millions of people are dying every year from indoor air pollution. The WHO finds that poor cooking, heating and lighting technologies are killing millions of people each year.

Indoor air pollution results from the use of dangerous fuels and cook stoves in the home. WHO of- ficials say nearly three billion people are unable to use clean fuels and technologies for cooking, heat- ing and lighting. And they say more than seven million people die from exposure to indoor or outdoor air pollution each year. Of that number, the WHO says about 4.3 million people die from household air pollution given off by simple biomass(生物燃料 ) and coal stoves. These findings show that the home use of poisonous fuels is to blame for many of these deaths. These fuels inrlude wood, coal, animal waste and so on. Carlos Dora is Coordinator in the WHO' s De- partment of Public Health, Environmental and Social Determinants of Health. He says people should not use unprocessed coal and kerosene (煤油 ) fuel indoors. He says opening a window or door to let out the harmful air will not correct the situation. It will only pollute the outdoors. "New technologies and clean fuels can rid people of this problem."

The United Nations found that more than 95 percent of families in suh-Saharan Africa depend on solid fuels for cooking. It says huge populations in India, China and Latin American countries, such as Cuatemala and Peru, are also at risk.

Nigel Bruce is a professor of Public Health at the University of Liverpool. He says researchers are developing good stoves and other equipment to bum fuels in a more efficient way. "There are

already many technologies for clean fuels available now. An effective and reasonably low-cost ethanol(酒精) stove that is made by Dometic (a Sweden-based company) is now being tested out. Another interest ing development is electric induction stoves."In India, you can buy an induction (屯磁) stove for about $8. And in Africa you can buy a solar lamp for less than $1.

25. According to Carlos Dora, what is the best solution to indoor air pollution?

A. People should use an effective air cleaner.

B. People should use new technologies and clean fuels.

C. People should open a window or door to let out the harmful air.

D. People should prevent themselves from being exposed to harmful air.

26. How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed ?

A. By listing numbers. B. By following time order.

C. By describing a process. D. By making classifications.

27.What can we learn from the passage?

A. Burning solid fuels can help limit indoor air pollution.

B. People can buy ethanol stoves made by Dometic in India.

C. There are already two technologies for clean fuels available for use.

D. Most of the deaths from indoor pollution are in developing countries.

28. Which would be the best title for the passage?

A. The Way We Cook Is Changing B. Cause of indoor Air Pollution

C. Indoor Air Pollution Kills Millions Each Year D. The Development of Electric Stoves

C

A recent survey in the United States showed that the average family spent more money on its pets than on its children. Although rather shocking, it should not surprise anyone who has seen the doggy parlours (客厅 ) where loved pets rest. Are Americans unique in treating their little friends in this way? No, the English, too, pay more attention to their pets.

This can clearly be seen when we look at pet foods, which often contain more vitamins than hu- man food. They certainly cost much. Last year the British public spent two hundred million pounds on pet food alone, to say nothing of veterinary bills or animal furniture. It is difficult not to feel angry about this when considering what the same amount could do for victims of starvation and poverty, so it is not unusual for me to get hot under collar when I read an old man left all his money to his dog in- stead of his children.

There are a variety of reasons why I find pets-raising alarming. They cause physical problems. An example of this is New York where they have great difficulty getting rid of the mess that dogs leave on the streets. Many people find this funny, but in a number of large cities it is a major problem. Ani- mals can cause disease, too. It is the threat of rabies - a disease with no known cure.

Another problem is the carelessness of pet owners. Most little children want a dog or a cat, and they continually push their mothers and fathers until they get one. It is only when the "sweet little thing" has been brought home that the parents realize how much time and money must be spent on "Rover" or "Bonzo". Then they just abandon it. As a result, they are allowed to run

free. English farm- ers lose hundreds of sheep a year, killed by someone's pet and you must have read of children being hurt by some pets of their own.

Lastly, I would only suggest that we have got our priorities wrong and that something should be done about it. In my view, it's time we stopped being sentimental about pets. I can see no reason why we should get upset when animals are cut up for medical experiments. This will lead us to discovering cures for serious human diseases, then I say, "keep cutting! "

29. A. what costly lives the pets are living B. where Americans keep their pets

C. why children love their pets so much D. how much pets depend on their masters

30. In the second paragraph "to get hot under the collar” probably means____.

A. getting quite hot B. becoming excited

C. feeling extremely angry D. receiving a fashionable shirt

31. According to the author, in which field can animals be most useful?

A. Food. B. Sports. C. Entertainment. D. Medicine.

32. What is the author's attitude towards pets-raising?

A. Sympathetic. B. Opposed. C. Pitiful. D. Supportive.

D

I like challenges (挑战), but this one was almost too difficult. I had begged Mom to take me on a completely new adventure for my sixteenth birthday. Then, there we were, just Mom and me with our guide, Milo, standing on the shore of Lake Arenal in Costa Rica. Milo greeted us in Spanish and helped us ride on our horses. Getting on my horse was difficult, but controlling it was a little easier.

We started our tour. Above the lake was Volcano (火山) Arenal, one of the active volcanoes in the area. I watched as the volcano broke out and big stones were thrown out, but luckily we were heading in another direction. The guidebook said we would cross three rivers. As we went through a stream, I asked, "Was that the first river?"

"I don't think so, Katie," Mom said.

Soon enough, we came to the first river, so I felt sick to my stomach when saw that the far shore was half a football field away!

After two more rivers, the way got even tougher. With each step of the horses' hooves (蹄), there were loud sounds. The rainforest was huge and quite beautiful but I wondered whether my horse could keep its balance. What did I know about horses? I imagined my horses' hooves struck stones and that we fell and were swept away by stones.

Three terrifying hours later, we came to a corral(畜栏). I wondered whether we would stop. On one side was a wonderful view of the lake and volcano, and on the other, a brightly painted restaurant. "Okay," I laughed nervously. "That's terrifying, but I'm so glad we did it!” 26. What can we infer from Katie's experience of riding on the horse? A. She dislikes horses.

B. She has much experience in riding on the horse.

C. She helps others ride on horses.

D. She has little experience in riding on the horse. 27. Which of the following best describes Katie's story? A. Dangerous. B. Crowded.

C. Boring. D. Busy.

28. What does the underlined sentence refer to? A. The guidebook was right. B. That was not the first river. C. Her mother was wrong.

D. They shouldn't go across the river. 29. Which of the following best describes Katie? A. Generous and shy. B. Calm and relaxed. C. Adventurous but nervous. D. Interested but disappointed. 30. What can we learn from Katie's story? A. Fear stops people from trying new things. B. Most people fail when they try new things. C. It is good to push yourself to try new things. D. It is better to go a familiar way than a new way.

B

Companies like Google are making cars smarter, safer, more independent, and friendlier. Future cars might get to know the people who ride inside.

At the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, or MIT, in Cambridge, scientists have designed

AIDA, which stands for Affective Intelligent Driving Assistant. AIDA is a small, white robot with shining blue eyes that sits in the front, watching the driver. The robot gives directions and uses a video camera to watch the driver's face and recognize his or her feelings. It will try to cheer the driver up when he or she is in a bad mood. AIDA also communicates with the world outside and helps the driver choose routes to avoid traffic jams or accidents.

Ford Motor Co. wants to let cars help with a person's health. The car's computer will communicate with hospitals. People with diabetes (糖尿病) have to watch what they eat because their bodies have a hard time keeping sugar in balance. If blood sugar levels get too low, a person is unable to think clearly, or even passes out. Soon, Ford's cars might help drivers examine their body chemistry.

Still other cars are being designed to respond to the habits of their owners. One of those owners is Nick Pudar, who lives near Detroit. When he returns to his home, he has to remember to recharge (再充电) his phone. He also has to remember to recharge his car.

"I'm still not in the habit of that," says Nick, who designs cars communicating wirelessly with the world. "In the future, if one forgets to charge his car, at 10 p.m. it will call to remind him. 电池) next morning." 31. Which of the following can AIDA do? A. Drive cars. B. Design cars.

C. Help drivers. D. Cause accidents.

32. What does the third paragraph mainly talk about? A. Ford's cars will help examine people's health. B. How Ford's cars communicate with hospitals. C. Ford's cars will help diabetes patients recover. D. How Ford's cars make drivers pass out.

Asking the Way

Nowadays, more and more people enjoy going abroad on holiday. Traveling is fun, but being lost in a foreign is definitely not. So you should not only have some knowledge about the city where you are going to, but also learn how to ask the way.

If you want to stop someone and ask the way, the best way to get his attention is to say “Excuse me”. This phrase can be used regardless of gender and age. In this way you will never make a mistake about their titles.

Though little gold was found, Costa Rica today is indeed rich with coffee and bananas. Coffee is the most important product in Costa Rica and most of it is exported (出口) to other countries like America and West Germany. Bananas are the country’s second most important export. Costa Ricans also grow many other crops such as fruits, corn and beans for their own use. Costa Ricans love colors and their houses are painted in bright colors.
