As has been all too apparent in recent days at Balcombe, few issues cause greater concern than energy policy. Many village communities feel their countryside is being ruined by the power-producing machines of wind farms; yet they never take “ direct action”, even though the planning laws put them at a severe disadvantage. And the generous subsidies(财政补贴),which encourage the expansion of wind power, are not favorable to the village communities and set landowners in conflict with other residents.

Those who disagree with the rapid expansion of wind farms state that the damage they cause is out of proportion to the benefits they bring, because their energy output cannot match that of the carbon-based power stations they are supposed to replace. Supporters insist that wind must be part of a mix of renewables, nuclear and carbon, and that the country is committed to meeting EU(European Union) targets for non-carbon energy generation.

Against this background, the fact that there is an argument within the Government over whether to publish an official report on wind farms impact on the countryside becomes even more extraordinary. The two parties in the coalition government are in disagreement over what it should say.

We have some advice for the two parties :publish the report ,and let the country be the judge. Even if it contains evidence that wind farms are harmful, it will hardly be a pleasant surprise to people who do not like them. Equally, supporters must argue their case by acknowledging the concerns and explaining why they are either misplaced or worthy of much attention.

The suggestion that further negotiations are to take place to produce an “acceptable” report suggests that the politics of coalition government are doing the country harm in a certain way. Given the sensitivities involved ,all the information should be available so that people can reach their own conclusions, rather than being left with the suspicion that facts are being replaced by political beliefs.

1.We call learn from the first paragraph that________.

A. energy policy catches much attention of the public

B. the residents are in favor of the expansion of wind farms

C. many village communities are satisfied with the subsidies

D. the planning laws offer great benefits to the residents

A. is more rapid than that of carbon-based power

B. guarantees an increase in energy output

C. is expected to be much better than that of nuclear Dower

D. agrees with EU targets for non-carbon energy generation

3.It can be inferred from the passage that_________.

A. an official report will settle the energy problem

B. the two parties are divided over the issue of wind farms

C. the two parties have agreed on a further negotiation

D. political beliefs concerning energy issue go against facts

4.Which of the following reflects the author’s opinion?

A. Increase political impact on energy policy.

B. Release a statement of supporters on wind farms.

C. Let the nation judge the facts about wind power.

D. Leave the two parties to reach their own conclusions.
18．In choosing a friend，one should be very careful．A good friend can help you study．You can have fun together and make each other happy．Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends．They will be with you as long as you have money or luck，but when you are down，they will run away．How do I know when I have found a good friend？I look for certain qualities （品质） of character，especially understanding，honesty and reliability （可靠）．
Above all else，I look for understanding in a friend．A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling．He is not quick to judge．Instead，he tries to learn from others．He puts himself in the other person's place，and he tries to think of ways to be helpful．He is also a good listener．
At the same time，however，a good friend is honest．He does not look for faults （过错） in others．He notices their good points．In short，a friend will try to understand me and accept me．
Another quality of a friend is reliability．I can always depend on a good friend．If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time，I can be sure that he will be there．If I need a favor，he will do his best to help me．If I am in trouble，he will not run away from me．
There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special．A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun．We should enjoy our lives，and we would enjoy our friendship．That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with．A good friend likes the same things I like．We share experience （经验） and learn from each other．A good friend has a good sense of humor （幽默），too．He likes to laugh with me．That is how we share in the joy of being friends．And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me．
When I meet someone who is reliable，honest，and understanding，I know I've found a friend!
29．Which of the following qualities the writer thinks is the most important in choosing a friend？A
A．understanding．B．honesty．C．reliability．D．a sense of humor．
30．If you have fair weather friends，B．

B．be helped with money
C．understand each other's feelings
D．have money or luck．
15．There have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise．Some people believe that they can't help putting on weight as they get older，while others hold that if they stop exercising，their muscles will turn into fat．Here are some more myths：
I'll never lose weight---I come from a fat family
Wrong!While we can't change the body type we are born with，we can't blame our genes for making us fat．There's plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families，and the main reason is that they share the same habits of eating too much and exercise too little．
I am fat because I burn calories slowly
Wrong!Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism（新陈代谢）．If fact，although fat people consume more energy that slim people，they also fail to realize how much they eat!Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake more accurately．
Exercise is boring
Wrong!Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively．The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that's fun as well as progressive．If you enjoy a Sunday walk，take a different route．If you do Yoga，try a tai chi class．If you like swimming，set a distance or time challenge．
No pain，no gain．
Wrong!Exercise is not meant to hurt．Indeed，pain is your body telling you something's wrong，and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury．You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly，but when your body adapts to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly．If you don't，rest and seek medical advice．

24．What does the author think about being fat？C
A．It is the family genes that make people fat．
B．People are fat because they consume too little energy．
C．It is the consequence of people's unbalanced lifestyle．
D．A diary of exercise can prevent people from becoming fat．
25．According to the author，how can we make exercise more interesting？A
A．By taking varied exercise．
B．By choosing simple exercise．
C．By doing regular exercise．
D．By sticking to outdoor exercise．
26．What is the author's opinion about"No pain，no gain"in exercising？A
A．Exercise should be stopped if continuous pain is felt．
B．Keeping fit is essentially a painful experience．
C．Pain in exercise is a precondition for reaching your goal．
D．Getting used to pain leads to positive changes in your body．
27．What is the purpose of the passage？D
A．To argue the importance of keeping fit．
B．To prove some medical facts about being fat and doing exercise．
C．To confirm what has long been believed about keeping fit．
D．To inform readers of some misunderstandings about fatness and exercise．
2．With the crazy smog going on in China，businessmen are now ready to sell people something to fight against the smog．"Smog economy"has helped certain products against the terrible weather become popular．Now let's see what we have on the list to help us through the terrible weather．
1．Masks
Well，I would say you had better stay indoors to save your lives．PM 2.5just increased greatly up t0 750in Beijing recently.3M just sold 220，000masks of a kind．No.1best-selling products!
2．Air purifiers（空气净化器）
This kind of products was rarely seen in Chinese households in the past．They have become a must now．I do like these little devices，though they are expensive．
3．Oxygen inhalers（氧气吸人器）
I didn't realize oxygen inhalers also get a cut in the smog economy．As a matter of fact，
your oxygen uptake has nothing to do with relieving （减轻） the bad effect of smog．It might even lead to oxygen poisoning when you inhale too much oxygen．So don't get greedy．
4．Salt lamps
Compared to oxygen inhalers，salt lamps are even worse．Some stores are selling the products at several hundred yuan，saying that they can release negative ions（离子），reduce radiation levels and purify the air．The lamps mainly contain sodium chloride．The boiling point of sodium is about 800degrees centigrade and that of candle is 500．So how on earth can
negative ions be released at only 500degrees？
5．Plants that absorb smog
Yeah，right．Plants Vs Smog．It is scientifically justfied （证明） that some plants do
absorb pollutants（污染物）from the air．Many plants and calla lilies are among the best-sellers in the market．Even if they don't work，it's good to have some plants in the house anyway．

29．According to the passage，smog _C．
A．encourages peope to run away from it
B．keeps people stay indoors day and niht
C．gives businessmen chances to make money
D．has nothing to do with the economy
30．Salt lamps are useless，becauseD．
A．its high boiling point may cause a big fire
B．people don't know how to increase its low boiling point
C．it may make the air even worse and dirtier
D．it actually can't give off the negative ions
31．How many products does the author think of as useful ways to fight against the smog？B
A．Two．  B．Three．  C．Four．  D．Five．
12．Driving in traffic can be extremely stressful．Pedestrians appear out of nowhere，cars suddenly pull out of parking spots，and roads become slippery due to rain or snow．Knowing when to brake and when to accelerate in such situations is hard enough for a human driver，let alone a robotic one．But several carmakers-and a few tech companies-are working to convince drivers to let driverless cars take the wheel．
       Without question，the most anticipated benefit of driverless cars is improved safety．Driverless systems will feature sensors that detect safety threats that human drivers might miss．Many carmakers already offer systems that alert drivers whenever they get dangerously close to other cars．
Also，driverless systems have the benefit of increased efficiency．Driverless cars won't waste as much gas as human drivers do，and guided by advanced GPS，they'll always take the fastest route．Once driverless cars become widely available，common people can have their own driver，and they'll just sit back and relax while their car's computer takes the wheel!
Although completely driverless cars won't be on the market for several years，the technology behind them is already appearing in phases．Two examples are the Active Lane Keeping Assist option for Mercedes-Benz cars and Ford's Traffic Jam Assist．In the first option，the system warns the driver whenever the car crosses lane markings by causing the steering wheel to vibrate（振动）．In the second option，the system helps the car keep pace with other cars while remaining in its current lane．The system is being developed to help relieve blocking on busy roads．
       Several carmakers claim that they'll produce driverless cars within the next decade．But critics aren't so sure，warning that a completely driverless car must be able to make split-second decisions in even the most complex traffic situations．In addition，the car's computer must become smart enough to know when to ask the driver to intervene （介入，干涉） to prevent an accident．
       Full government approval won't happen until driverless cars are proven safe．In the meantime，expect to see carmakers offer ever-smarter features on their new models．
 （Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS）
78．One of the factors that make traffic extremely stressful is thepedestrians appearing out of nowhere/cars pulling out of parking spots/slippery roads due to rain or snow
79．What are the benefits of driverless system？Improved safety and increased efficiency
80．What will happen to a car with the Active Lane Keeping Assist when it crosses lane markings？The steering wheel will vibrate．
81．Driverless cars won't be on the market until they canmake split-second decisions and know when to ask the driver to intervene．
19．As women in the rich Asian country have become better educated，with five times as many now getting advanced degrees as in 1995，they have also become choosier and are less likely to settle for the role of gentle wife traditionally expected of Korean women．
"I heard if you are a female with master's degree，it is much harder to arrange a meeting than if you have a bachelor's degree because of an unfavorable concept'too smart women'here，"said King，a college senior in Seoul．
The age at which Korean women are getting hitchedhas risen by an average 4.1 years over the past 20 years to 28.9 years，according to Statistics Korea，and that has created worried mothers getting things rolling for their daughters．
"My daughter is in her early 30's，an age considered late for marriage here"，said a woman who took her daughter to a match-making agency in Seoul．
"If she does not find her match this year，it will be much more difficult to marry in the coming years．So I went to the firm with her and made her join．"
At DUO，a matchmaking firm，its 26，000 members can choose between five different membership programs with fees from 1.08 million won（ 韩元）（$971）to 8.8 million won．
To attract more customers，the site displays the average annual income of its male and female customers，as well as their professional standing．
"In a privately set-up blind date，you cannot be entirely sure of how much of personal information given to you is accurate，"said DUO spokesman Yon Jun．
Critics say the industry focuses more on income and status．Some of them have coined the phrase"employage"to sum up employment and marriage．
"If your father works in the financial industry or is a high-ranking administrator，maybe you will find your match with similar backgrounds through a matchmaking firm，starting a perfect marriage on the back of parental support，"said comedian Quan．

63．The underlined word"hitched"in Paragraph 3 probably meansB．
    A．employed       B．married       C．educated      D．worried
64．What leads to the embarrassing state for Korean women in matchmaking is thatC．

65．From the passage，we can conclude thatD．
    A．all the perfect marriages result from good backgrounds
    B．blind date can help you get more accurate personal information
    C．mothers are more worried about themselves than their daughters
    D．twenty years ago，girls averaged less than 25 when they were married
66．Why do some people invent the word"employage"？BecauseB．
    A．they like the special way that matchmaking is arranged
    B．the matchmaking firm pays more attention to money and status
    C．mothers are more worried about their daughters in marriage
    D．young women prefer personal information to profession．
16．The young people who talk of the village as being"dead"are talking nothing but nonsense，as in their hearts they must surely know．
No，the village is not dead．There is more life in it now than there ever was．But it seems that"village lire"．is dead．Gone for ever．It began to decline about a hundred years ago．When many girls left home to go into service in town many miles away，and men also left home-in increasing numbers in search of work，and home was where work was．There are still a number of people alive today who can remember what"village life"meant in the early years of the last century．It meant finding．your entertainment in the village of within walking distance of it．It meant housewives tied to the home all day and every day．It meant going to bed early to save lamp-oil and coal．
Then came the First World War and the Second World War．After each war．new ideas，now attitudes．new trades and occupations were brought to villagers．The long-established order of society was no longer taken for granted．Electricity and the motorcar were steadily operating to make"village life"and"town life"almost alike．Now with the highly developed science and technology and high-level social welfare for all，there is no point whatever in talking any longer about"village life．"．It is just life．and a better life．
Finally，if we have any doubts about the future，or about the many changes which we have seen in our lives．we have only to look in at the school playground any midmorning；or see the children as they walk home fn little groups．Obviously there children ale better fed，better clothed，better educated，healthier．prettier and happier than any generation of children that ever before．walked the village street．

17．February 4，2012 saw the take-off of a new rising NBA star-Jeremy Lin．
    Among professional basketball players，Jeremy Lin's background is not typical．He graduated from Harvard University，which sends few players to the NBA，and he is the only Chinese-American NBA player．
    Lin's enjoyment of basketball actually began in Taiwan．When Lin's father moved to U．S．，his interest in the sport only grew and he passed on this love of basketball to his son，introducing him to the game at the age of five．The young Lin spent much of his youth playing basketball for fun．
    In high school，Lin dreamed of playing in the NBA．When he applied for college，he was not offered a single sports scholarship．However，after his admission to Harvard，he was offered a place on its college basketball team．
    During Lin's time at Harvard，his basketball career began to speed up．He scored 1，482 points，making him one of the highest scorers in Ivy League history．
    When he graduated，no professional teams offered Lin a contract，but he was invited to play in the NBA Summer League．He played well and ended up eagerly signing a contract with the Golden State Warriors．
    At first，playing in professional games filled Lin with excitement．He treasured opportunities to meet players he had been watching on TV for years．But slowly，the excitement wore off and was replaced by anxiety．In a few very difficult months，he was cut by two teams before the New York Knicks picked him up．
    But he had the courage and determination to stick to his dream，so he put himself into hard training to get ready for his opportunity to come．Then his moment arrived on February 4，2012，on which his excellent performance made him famous overnight．After that，he led the Knicks to their fifth straight victory．Knicks fans developed the nickname for him"Linsanity"（林发疯）．Time magazine released its 2012 list of the 100"Most Influential People in the World"，Jeremy Lin included．
67．Which of the following is of little help in Lin's success？D
A．his father's influence
