Imagine the situation. You are driving along a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device(装置) which uses satellites (卫星) to find the user’s position(位置). It can find your position to within 20 metres. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.
GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.
There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates(计算) its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.
Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate(精确的). There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.
小题1:According to the passage, with the help of the GPS, people __________.
A.can’t be lost in a new city
B.can’t find their way in different countries
C.can learn about the culture of an unknown place
D.can spend the least time getting to another place
小题2:We can learn from the passage that ____________.
A.there are three parts to the GPS
B.a GPS can’t be put into a watch
C.a GPS can help you start your car
D.the GPS are becoming more and more expensive
小题3:The underlined word “They” in paragraph 3 means “____________”.
A.ReceiversB.GPS devicesC.SatellitesD.Ground stations
小题4:The passage is mainly about _______________.
A.the history of the GPSB.the introduction of the GPS
C.the shape of the GPSD.the three parts of the GPS
小题5:What can we infer(推断) from the passage?
A.All GPS devices have electronic maps.
B.People in many countries will use the GPS for free.
C.The receiver of the GPS contacts at least five of the satellites.
D.The GPS will become more and more common in everyday life.
If you go to a fast food restaurant, you will probably see a lot of teenagers. Today, many teenagers are overweight, and this is because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers are fond of food with a lot of fat, oil, salt and sugar. People call this kind of food “junk food”.
But bad eating habits go beyond fast food. We find many teenagers eat unhealthily. Some don’t have breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don’t have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent survey at one school, scientists found that over two thirds of the students didn’t follow a healthy diet. They didn’t like vegetables, and many of them didn’t like to eat fruits. They preferred to eat food with a lot of salt, sugar, or fat.
Parents today also worry about their children’s diet. Some doctors give the following advice:
Teenagers shouldn’t eat too much junk food.
Teenagers shouldn’t eat food with too much salt. Salt can cause high blood pressure in the future.
Teenagers should eat food without much fat, oil and sugar.
Teenagers need to eat some fruits and vegetables every day. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins(维生素)and have little fat.
Teenagers need to drink more milk. Milk will help their bones grow.
Teenagers need to eat breakfast every day. It is good for their body and mind.
小题1:How many pieces of advice are given by the doctors in the passage?
A.FiveB.EightC.SixD.Seven
小题2: Which of the following is RIGHT?
A.Today all teenagers are overweight.
B.Scientists found two thirds of the students didn’t have a healthy diet.
C.Parents are worried about their children’s diet today.

小题3: It’s right to ___________ according to the passage.
A.eat junk foodB.eat food with too much salt
C.drink milk and eat junk food often D.eat vegetables that are rich in vitamins
小题4:The main purpose of the passage is to tell the children____________.
A.how to keep a healthy dietB.to eat fruits and vegetables
C.how to have a proper meal for lunchD.not to eat junk food
Now I know that we black people are much more likely to have high blood pressure and diabetes (糖尿病) than white people. And they often lead to heart attacks and other untreated diseases. For example, black people are three to four times more likely than white people to have high blood pressure and twice as likely as the white population to die of a stroke (中风).
New research has found out the surprisingly high levels of salt in many of black people’s favorite meals. I stopped putting extra salt in my food at the table long ago and I try to cut down on the salt. I use in cooking. The suggested daily level of salt for adults is 6 grams. It is easy to see that if you try not to eat too many processed (加工过的) foods and use salt in your cooking within the limit, you won’t reach more than the daily level.
The research showed how much salt there is in some foods that we buy from restaurants and takeaways. An average salad with rice and peas has 6.2 grams of salt. This is more salt than you are supposed to eat for the whole day.
A researcher talked about the importance of home cooking rather than take-outs. At home, he pointed out, not only can you hold control of the salt bottle, but also you can create tasty food which is low on salt. The researcher later provided curry goat and rice and peas. They were low on salt, but completely delicious.
I do not suppose Jamaicans are going to stop buying takeaways soon. But if you suffer from high blood pressure, it is probably better not to buy them often.
小题1:The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 1 refers to _______.
A.white peopleB.black people
C.untreated diseasesD.high blood pressure and diabetes
小题2:What has the new research found out according to Paragraph 2?
A.Black people take in too much salt.
B.Black people’s meals are very special.
C.Processed foods have too much salt in them.
D.6 grams of salt per day is enough for an adult.
小题3:What would the writer probably suggest black people do?
A.Order no salad in a restaurant.B.Take in no salt for several days.
C.Stop cooking their favorite meals.D.Eat less takeaways.
小题4:The researcher provided curry goat and rice and peas in order to _______.
A.thank those who came to his home for his research
B.let people know that eating less salt makes one healthier
C.show that tasty food with less salt can be made at home
D.prove the less salt the food has the more delicious it is
小题5:What would be the best title for this passage?
A.Watch the saltB.Take care, black people
C.Say no to takeawaysD.Say no to high blood pressure


London has a new magazine. But it is not printed(印刷) on paper. Everyone who has a television can receive it because it is on TV.
In order to read this magazine you have to have a decoder (解码器). Each page of it is numbered, so you only have to dial the number to choose which subject you want to read about. There are all kinds of information ---everything is included from cooking to the latest sports news.
If you want to read the news, the first thing you have to do is to turn to the back page, which has an easy-to-remember page number, 100 for example. Then you start choosing what you want to read. The news is on page 101 to 109, so you put in the numbers and the news appears written across your screen. Perhaps you want to go out in the afternoon, so you press 181, and a brightly colored weather map appears on the screen. But the weather is terrible, so you decide to go shopping and dial 162 for a list of the week’s best bargains. But should you drive or take the train? To answer that question you only have to press 189 for the traffic report. It is very simple to use. But probably the best thing about the service is that it is being updated all the time. Journalists type new material directly onto the screen and the whole pages of the magazine can be replaced in minutes.
London already has three services. One, sent out by TV, is called ORACLE while the other two, on BBC, are called CEEFAX because they let you see facts. Although CEEFAX and ORACLE have been operating for some time, they have not been well publicized(宣传). BBC engineers do not think that their idea will ever replace books and newspapers because they can be taken with you everywhere. But many people would agree that is a breakthrough(突破) as great as the invention of printing, which could not just change our reading habits but our whole way of life.
小题1: We can know from the passage that in London        .
A.the magazine is available at any local home
B.most of the postmen will lose their jobs some day
C.everyone can read this magazine if they have a television
D.the readers can get various kinds of information staying at home
小题2:In the sentence “Each page of it is numbered,” the word “it” refers to the        .
A.magazine B.programC.decoderD.subject
小题3:According to the passage, the “decoder” is used to help people        .
A.work out the total(合计) of certain numbers
B.read the information sent by TV signals
C.go shopping and have other entertainment
D.receive some special TV program for entertainment
小题4:The passage is mainly about        .
A.a new magazine printed in London

C.a popular TV program about magazines
D.an advanced technology helping people communicate
