16．It is not a good idea to interrupt the actor Richard Griffiths in the middle of a play．During the past year he has stopped performances at the National Theatre when mobile phones have gone off，and he threw one member of the audience out of a West End play for failing to switch off his phone．
So when a mobile rang out for the third time during his performance as Hector，a teacher，in Alan Bennett's The History Boys at the Broadhurst Theatre in New York，he spoke angrily："I am not going to compete with these electronic devices"．
Griffiths'actions led a debate in the UK theatre world over whether phones should be forbidden by law from British theatres，too．Actors are already asking the government to legalise （使合法化） the use of electronic screening （屏蔽） devices to block mobile phone signals from theatres．
Technology companies market"blocking"devices that send out a high-powered signal on the same frequency （频率） as a mobile phone，occupying all the available spectrums （频谱）．
But these are forbidden in many countries because they might prevent emergency calls from being made．
Rosemary Squire，president of the Society of West End Theatre and co-founder of the Ambassador Theatre Group，which operates 12West End theatres，said，"Phones are one of the biggest operational problems theatres face．We should look for equipment that could block phones or make a London-wide theatre rule．"
Nick Allott，the managing director of Sir Cameron Mackintosh's theatre group，said，"We would all welcome some ways of preventing ringing phones，but doctors and emergency workers need to be paged in a theatre and we mustn't prevent that．"

47．The first two paragraphs are written toC．
A．tell us why Griffiths was angry
B．blame Griffiths for his bad behavior
C．introduce the topic the passage will talk about
D．advise us to turn off the mobile phones in public places
48．According to the passage，"blocking"devicesB．
A．have the same functions as mobile phones
B．prevent the mobile phones being used properly
C．cause the biggest problem theatres have to face
D．help make emergency calls
49．The underlined word"paged"in the last paragraph can be replaced byC．
A．prevented
B．protected
C．called
D．forbidden
50．What will probably be talked about following the last paragraph？C
A．Griffiths'next performance in theatres．
B．The ways to solve the problem the public places face．
C．The opinions the public have about the problem．
D．The damage mobile phones result in．

20．Jack：Hi：Susan，how was the vacation？
Susan：Hi，Jack，it was（61）exciting（excite）．I spent the first three days with my friend Mary．
Then，after a day's rest，I （62）went（go） to New York to see my sister and I stayed there
for another three days．She had been eager to see me （63）for a long time．
Jack：So you were also excited about（64）seeing（see） her．
Susan：Of course!I hadn't seen her for four years．（65）Besides，it was the first time I had
seen her boyfriend，Michael．
Jack：Is he a student too？
Susan：No，he's working for a local travel agency．He's been to many（66）places（place）
such as San Francisco，Detroit and Atlanta．I can't remember（67）the names of
all the places．He made a perfect plan so（68）thatI could see all of the famous
places in New York City．
Jack：You're so lucky!I haven't been to New York yet．
Susan：That's hard （69）to believe（believe）．
Jack：So tell me about those interesting places．
Susan：OK．We took a lot of photos．Let me show you （70）them．
Jack：OK．

17．The loudest public food fight right now is about GMOs （转基因生物），or genetically modified organisms．Scientists add genes to corn，soybeans，and other plants，usually to protect the crops from insects or herbicides．Proponents say that makes crops easier to grow and cheaper while opponents believe that GMOs have been linked to depression，allergies，infertility，and even cancer．Many consumers and food-safety inspectors worry that GMOs cause an unnatural threat to our health and the environment．
Although GMOs have been in our food supply for 20years，the controversy has moved to center stage．Recent documentaries and experts on The Doctor Oz Show have fanned the flames．About 75percent of consumers say they are concerned about the safety of genetically modified foods．Two states in the USA recently passed bills requiring labeling （标记） of all foods made with GMOs； many other states are considering mandatory labeling．The European Union （EU） already requires labeling，and several countries，including France，have banned the planting of genetically modified crops．So are GMOs safe-or should you avoid them at all costs？Here，a look at the evidence．
Roughly 90% of the corn，canola，soybeans，and sugar beets grown in the United States have bits of DNA that originally came from a lab．Unless you've been eating only foods labeled 100percent organic-which must be GMO-free-you probably have GMOs in your system now．
In a big red-flag-raising study，French researchers reported last year that rats developed huge tumors （瘤） after living on genetically modified corn for two years．"Genetic engineering can have unintended consequences，"says Bill Freese，science policy analyst for the Center for Food Safety．Artificial genes force plants to produce unnatural proteins （蛋白质），he says，and no one knows how those may affect human health．
But scientists immediately criticized the French study．For one thing，the types of rats used in the study were highly prone （倾向于） to cancer，so it was predictable that some would develop tumors after eating GMOs，notes Nina Fedoroff，a professor of biology and life sciences at Penn State University．She adds，"We've eaten these foods for 20years and aren't walking around with giant tumors．"
Hundreds of other studies have found no trouble with GMOs，says Ruth MacDonald，professor at Iowa State University．After looking at more than 130research projects，the EU concluded that there's nothing especially risky about them．
In September，the editors of Scientific American denounced the efforts to label GMO foods，stating that there's no proof that GMOs can endanger people's health．Adding genes to crops isn't any more dangerous than traditional breeding （繁殖），which farmers have done for thousands of years，the American Association for the Advancement of Science declared in 2012．Old methods of modifying crops mixed tens of thousands of genes with unpredictable results．The fact that scientists can now insert single genes into corn or soybeans shouldn't raise any new alarms，says Fedoroff．
There doesn't appear to be a scientific reason to ban GMO foods from your cupboard to protect your health．But it is healthy to limit your intake of the processed foods that often contain them．And don't assume that GMO-free packaged good is necessarily healthy．Organic cookies can still contain too much sugar or salt．
63．Which of the following have made the argument about GMOs fiercer？B
A．Some consumers and inspectors．
B．Some documentaries and experts．
C．Some newspapers and magazines．
D．Some scientists and administrators．
64．We can infer from the passage thatC．
A．some countries like France have suffered severely from GMOs
B．most crops grown in the United States are genetically modified
C．EU consumers can buy GMOS or GMO-free foods as they like
D．GMO-free foods can hardly be found in American markets now
65．The underlined word"denounced"in Paragraph 7means"A"．
A．condemned
B．confirmed
C．advocated
D．assessed
66．The author writes the passage for the purpose ofC．
A．appealing to people to reject GMO foods
B．proving GMO goods harmless for humans
C．sharing with people opinions about GMOs
D．throwing doubt on the results of researches．

18．The man could do nothing but _________（　　）
