Parking arrangements for trucks and vans must be made in advance as well. Visit your property page for information about parking your car.

Furniture and Lighting

Most HUH units have no furniture-the unit is empty except for a stove and a refrigerator. You need to bring, buy, or rent a bed, other furniture, and household items. In many HUH units, rooms do not have overhead lights, so you also may need table or floor lamps.

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了有关学生前去哈佛大学报道需要注意的一些事项。

1细节理解题。根据Driving部分中If you plan on bringing a moving van or truck it will not fit under the overpasses on Soldiers Field Road and Memorial Drive.可知如果你打算带一辆移动的货车或卡车,它将无法通过Soldiers Field路和Memorial Drive的天桥。由此可知,假设一个法国男孩选择住在HUH单元,带着一只狗和一辆移动的货车,他应该避免在Soldiers Field路上开车。故选D

2细节理解题。根据Furniture and Lighting部分中Most HUH units have no furniture-the unit is empty except for a stove and a refrigerator.可知大部分的HUH单元没有家具——除了一个炉子和一个冰箱,单元是空的。由此可知,大部分的HUH单元都配备了一个炉子和一个冰箱。故选C

3推理判断题。根据最后一段If you want to stock up on groceries and some household items as soon as you arrive, please find information about “Grocery Shopping” by clicking the drop-down menu.可知如果您想在到达后立即购买食品杂货和一些家庭用品,请点击下拉菜单查找有关“食品杂货购物”的信息。由此可推知,文章最有可能来自一个网站。故选B

文章出处类推理判断题。做这类题重要的是要抓住文章的内容或结构特征,这是推理判断的前提和基础。如报纸,前面会出现日期、地点、通讯社名称等;广告,其格式特殊,容易辨认;产品说明、器皿设备的使用说明有产品名称或操作方法,而药品的服用说明会告知服用时间、次数和药量等。

如第三小题,根据最后一段If you want to stock up on groceries and some household items as soon as you arrive, please find information about Grocery Shopping by clicking the drop-down menu.可知如果您想在到达后立即购买食品杂货和一些家庭用品,请点击下拉菜单查找有关“食品杂货购物”的信息。由此可推知,文章最有可能来自一个网站。故选B

【题目】Symptoms of Dehydration(脱水)

You’re bad- tempered.

Researchers tested the mood and concentration of 25 women who drank healthy amounts of water one day, and then didn’t over the next two days. When slightly dehydrated, the women reported tiredness, bad temper, headaches, and difficulty focusing. In a separate test, men with mild dehydration also had trouble with mental tasks. 1 Scientists are still trying to figure out why.

You have a bad workout.

2 It impacts how much you can push yourself. Even a 2 to 3 percent fluid loss affects your ability to get a good workout and more than 5 percent dehydration decreases exercise capacity by about 30 percent. A no-brainer way to avoid dehydration and dehydration symptoms is to aim for this much water per day.

3

Driving while dehydrated may be just as dangerous as getting behind the wheel drunk, in terms of how many mistakes you could make on the road. British researchers had participants take two-hour drives [using a simulator (模拟器). When they drank enough water, there were 47 driving errors. 4

You feel dizzy when you stand up too fast.

One of the signs of dehydration is when your blood volume and pressure drops, it can leave you feeling dizzy or faint, or bring on that rush of light-headedness after you quickly get up from sitting or lying down.

The exact treatment for dehydration symptoms depends on age and how severely dehydrated someone is. 5 Most of the time, however, people use some over-the-counter solutions for kids, and adults can drink more water

A. You drive like you’re drunk.

B. Dehydration can be life-threatening.

C. To get rid of dehydration you have to replace lost water.

D. In extreme cases, people might go to the hospital for a treatment.

E. Dehydration reduces blood pressure and makes the heart work harder.

F. But when it came to mood changes, women changed much more than men’s.

G. But when they are short of water, there were more than doubled driving errors to 101.

【题目】 Children of all ages gathered in New York City recently for the International Toy Fair. Hidden among already popular toys were new, high-tech educational products. Toymakers are working to create these products for improving a child’s emotional intelligence.

Companies showed off their products last week at New York’s Jacob Javitz Convention Center.

PleIQ is a set of plastic toy blocks. It uses visual reality technology to teach words, numbers and other things. Edison Duran directs the company that makes PleIQ. She showed people at the toy fair how virtual images appear on the blocks when they are held in front of a tablet camera. PleIQ has children act as teacher or guide to a companion character.

On the other side of the convention center, Karen Hu from another company demonstrated an educational robot called Woobo. The robot comes programmed with educational games and activities. Children use its touch-screen face to get them started. Hu described how the robot can help a child who has autism (自闭症). “The child can communicate with Woobo and follow some of the instructions Woobo is giving because he thinks of this as a companion instead of a parent or someone else telling him about certain things.”

At the EQtainment stand, sales director Jonathan Erickson explained the company’s toys. “The purpose of all of our products is to develop emotional and social intelligence.” he said. Erickson showed off a board game called “Q’s Race to the Top”. He said the game got his 4-year-old daughter to open up. “The biggest thing is her talking. And that’s the key of all this—getting her feelings expressed out. Like, ‘Hey, what does it feel like to be sad? Or how does it feel like to be happy?’”

It remains to be seen whether a game or toy can improve emotional intelligence. But toymakers are doing what they can to help parents in their efforts to raise well-rounded children.

1How does PleIQ instruct children to learn?

A.By playing the role of a companion.B.By giving direct guidance.

C.By taking photos with a camera.D.By presenting visual images.

2What can be inferred about Woobo from Paragraph 4?

A.It is programmed to replace teachers.B.It may be good company for kids.

C.It can get started automatically.D.It is intended to design games.

3What does Jonathan Erickson think of his toys?

A.They are quite easy to operate.B.They can teach children numbers.

C.They help kids express themselves well.D.They can show their emotions clearly.

4What is the main idea of the text?

A.Toys are made to help to build emotional intelligence.

B.Educational toys sell well at the International Toy Fair.

C.Toymakers are making profits in education.

D.Children celebrate the International Toy Fair.
