1．You know the steps to getting a driver's license for an American young person？
In America，every student in his or her second year of high school is required to take a class in driver's education，which is a summer course．
DRIVER'S EDUCATION：CLASS TIME & DRIVING TIME
CLASS TIME：
Students are supposed to learn laws and regulations．They have a text from which they study the basic laws they must know to pass the written driving test that is given to anyone wanting to get a license．
DRIVING TIME：
*Students practice starting steering，backing up，parking，switching lanes，turning corners，and all the other maneuvers required．
*Each student is required to drive a total of six hours．
*The students are divided into groups of four，each time being out for two hours．Thus，each student gets half an hour driving time per outing．
*The instructor and the‘driver'sit in the front seats while the other three students in the back．
DIFFERENCES OF THE DRIVER'S EDUCATION CARS
They have two sets of brakes，one on the driver's side and one on the instructor's side．
On the top of the car is a sign that reads：STUDENT DRIVER，letting nearby drivers use extra caution．
TO GET THE LICENSE
*Firstly，pass the driver's education course．
*Then，reach the appropriate age （this age differs in every state but in most cases the person must be 16years old．）
*Thirdly，take the driver's test，including an eye examination，a written test，and a road test．
***If the person did well in his or her driver's education class，he or she will pass the test with flying colors and get a driver's license．

70．In America，the driver's course mentioned aboveD．
A．is considered as part of the advanced education
B．is given to anyone wanting to get a driver's license
C．is carried on at the same time as other courses
D．is offered to all the students of Grade 2in high schools
71．To prevent accidents，a driver's Education carB．
A．has a sign inside it
B．has two sets of brakes
C．is big enough to hold five persons
D．can't run very fast

A．They must be 16years old．
B．They should go to have their driver's test．
C．They must have their eyes examined．
D．They ought to do well in their driver's course．

分析 本文属于说明文阅读，作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了美国人考驾驶执照的步骤，每个学生在高二都要上司机教育课，经过十二次驾驶练习，在达到适当年龄后通过司机的驾驶测试或者飞行的颜色测试，才可以获得驾驶执照．

解答 70．D．细节理解题．根据文章第二段"every student in his or her second year of high school is required to take a class in driver's education，which is a summer course"，每一个学生在他或她的高二时都被要求参加一个司机的教育的班，这是一个暑期课程；故选D．
71．B．细节理解题．根据文章第12段"They have two sets of brakes，one on the driver's side and one on the instructor's side"，他们有两组刹车，一个在驾驶者的一边，一个在教练的一边；故选B．
72．A．细节理解题．根据文章第8，9段"Each student is required to drive a total of six hours""each student gets half an hour driving time per outing"，每个学生都被要求驾驶一个共六小时，每个学生每次外出都得半小时的时间，可知每个学生要去驾驶12次；故选A．
73．D．细节理解题．根据文章最后一段"If the person did well in his or her driver's education class，he or she will pass the test with flying colors and get a driver's license"如果该人在他或她的驾驶教育课上做的很好，他或她将通过飞行的颜色测试，并获得驾驶执照；可知还要通过测试；故选D．

点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．

17．5 Secrets of Web Travel Sites
Booking a trip on an online travel site is convenient，but comes with its own set of problems．
1．They who's on a Mac and who's on a PC and who's going to spend more．
Last year，US travel research company Orbitz tracked people's online activities to test out whether Mac users spend more on travel than PC users．On average，Mac users lay out US$20-30 more per night on hotels and go for more stars．according to the Wall Street Journal．As a result，online•travel sites show these users more expensive travel options first．To avoid inadvertently paying more，sort results by price．
2．Their software doesn't always hook up to the hotel's system．
A guaranteed reservation is almost impossible to come by anywhere-but the risk of your flight or hotel being overbooked increases with third-party providers．The middle-man's software isn't immune to system errors，so always call the hotel or airline to make sure your booking was processed．
3．Don't be fooled by packages：Often，they're low-end items grouped together．
Ever notice how travel sites recommend a hotel，a rental car，and tour package all in one click？These deals usually feature travel that no one wants，like flights with multiple layovers．
Check the fine print．
4．You could miss out on loyalty points．
Third-party providers can get between you and frequent flyer miles or points．Many hotel loyalty programmes don't recognise external sites，others award only minimum points and exclude special offers，like double points on hotel stays．
5．Once your trip is purchased，you're on your own．
An online travel agency can't provide assistance the same way an agent can if a flight is cancelled or a room is substandard．Basically，when you arrive at the airport or hotel，you're just another client who booked at the lowest rate．
56．Which ofthe following is TRUE？B
A．Third-party providers can ensure your reservation．
B．Mac users are likely to spend more money than PC users．
C．An online travel agency functions the same as an agent．
D．Packages usually provide travelers with satisfactory programmes．
57．What's the purpose of the passage？D
A．To encourage readers to book a trip on an online travel  site．
B．To make an advertisement about several travel sites online．
C．To convince readers not to book a trip on an online travel site．
D．To warn  readers of some problems with booking  trips online．
12．It was from the wallets of these poor people that cigarette makers are determined to make money by promoting goods ________ are labeled by the WHO as dangerous to health．（　　）
A．whereB．whichC．whatD．as
9．After a long absence，I went back to college，______ to pick up where I'd left off．（　　）
A．hopingB．hopeC．to hopeD．hoped
16．Ian Mercer doesn't set an alarm clock．The former Microsoft senior manager doesn't check the weather，either．He doesn't turn on lights，water the yard，or adjust the thermostat（恒温器）．He doesn't open the curtains，answer the phone，or call his children for dinner．There's something unique about Ian's home．He has programmed it to do all these things for him．
Ian doesn't live in a typical home or have a typical lifestyle．He spent over a decade designing the systems that feature in his unique home．He bought a home automation software package and then improved it．
Now there are 79sensors and monitors，and 48light switches in his home．Lights turn on automatically in rooms with people in them．Even being out，Ian can also control his home remotely using voice commands or his phone in any location．That is only the beginning of what this home has been programmed to do．
It connects with online calendars，caller ID，online weather services，online address boos，and email，among other things，to get Ian through his day．For example，if there is a meeting in Ian's calendar，it will wake him up，open his bedroom curtains，start and set his shower to his desired temperature．It also informs Ian about traffic conditions．
There is plenty more this home has been programmed to do．It keeps him updated on his favorite sports teams and scores．It even monitors online activity to check that Ian's children are doing their homework．The"dinner's ready"command stops operation of their computers and TVs．This is easier than asking his children o shut them down．
Ian's home is unique． Most homes are not this smart，but soon more homes will be technologically advanced．
21．What makes Ian's home unique？B
A．Having more furniture than usual
B．Being programmed with smart software
C．Creating a traditional atmosphere for Ian
D．Working automatically without Ian's order
22．What can we learn about Ian？B
A．He invented the home automation software
B．He devoted years to improving the systems
C．He is seeking to control his home remotely
D．He failed to monitor his children's homework
23．What does the underlined sentence imply？A
A．Smart homes are future trends
B．Ian's home is far from satisfaction
C．Technology of smart home is too expensive
D．Homes smarter than Ian's can be found everywhere．
2．The World Health Organization reports a number of people have died of the Ebola virus in central Africa during the last few months．Ebola，also known as Ebola hemorrhagic （出血） fever or Ebola viral disease．is a rare and deadly illness with high death rates in humans and primates．The natural source of Ebola virus remains unknown，although bats seem to be the most likely source．
The Ebola virus began spreading after victims were discovered in northeastern Cabon．So far，it is the third time Ebola has spread through Cabon since 1994．Health officials believe people moving across the border spread the disease from Cabon co Congo Ebola is highly infectious and kills up to 80% of its victims．Researchers do not know the method with which the virus first appears in humans，but they believe it is through infected animals．The disease then spreads from person to person through blood and other body liquids．
Ebola victims treated early have the base chance of survival．Signs of Ebola include a high temperature，diarrhea，muscle pains and bleeding inside the body．in severe cases，victims experience chest pains and death．There is no known cure for the disease and no way yet to prevent it．
Scientists at the American National institutes of Health are working to develop a vaccine（疫苗） to prevent Ebola．Doctor Cary Nobel is leading the research effort at N-l-H testing center in the eastern state of Maryland．He says that during the past two years，the vaccine has been tested on small animals and monkey a for safety and effectiveness．
In the most recent study，four monkeys who had been given the vaccine were completely protected from a deadly injection of the Ebola virus．the study was described in November in Nature magazine．Doctor Nobel says the tests appear to have moved scientists one step closer to a vaccine for humans．
28．Where does the Ebola virus come fromD？
A．Bats．B．Monkeys．C．Infected humans．D．Something unknown．
29．When infected with Ebola virus，people may experience the following exceptA．
A．heart attack B．a rise in temperature
C．chest pains D bleeding inside the body
30．What can we learn from the passageB？
A．Once infected with the Ebola virus．people can never survive．
B．Half of the Ebola victims will lose their lives．
C．No cure has been found for the disease．
D．Scientists have succeeded in preventing Ebola．
31．What is Doctor Nobel's attitude towards the testsB？
A．Discouraged．B．Positive．C．Doubtful．D．Not mentioned．
9．Coral reefs（珊 瑚 礁）are not just beautiful to look at，but also very useful．They shelter nearly 25% of ocean life and provide food for billions of people．However，like many other species，this amazing ecosystem（生态系统）is in danger of dying out!
There are two main reasons for the destruction-the rising carbon dioxide levels caused by global vdarming as well as human influences like bottom operation．hile not much can be done about the former，the loss caused by the latter can be reduced．
Bottom operation involves dropping nets to the ocean bed and then dragging them up when filled with fish．This action damaged te ocean floor，causing the coral branches to separate from the reefs．While that is very discouraging，the good news is that if these branches are found quickly，they can be saved．At present，that work is being performed by volunteer divers．But the method has only limited sccess because they cannot stay long underwater，nor reach depths of over 200meters where some of the deep-sea coral grows．
However，this is not the case for Coralbots-mthe robots that can constantly seek out broken branches．A team of‘coralbots'，each individually working to simple rulesl will piece together'damaged bits of coral，allowing them to regrow．They are programmed to be able to distinguish between other things and the coral．The robots work together in groups，similar to bees．If one coralbot is damaged then the others will still be able to complete the task．
Dr Lea-Anne Henry said："The project of using coralbots offers us the possibility to restore（修复）the function of reefs．It is in the final stage of testing．Once ready，the researchers hpe to build hundreds of them and use them effectively in the waters off Scotland and then hopefully in the oceans across the world．"

24．Which of the following is a cause of the danger that coral reefs are facing？D
A．The appearance of new creatures．
B．The seriously polluted sea water．
C．The activities of volunteer divers．
D．Human activities like bottom operation．
25．Compared with volunteer divers，coralbotsA．
A．can stay longer underwater    B．must work as bees do
C．can distinguish what is coral D．can never be damaged
26．What does the underlined word"them"in the last paragraph refer to？A
A．Coralbots．    B．Broken branches．
C．working bees． D．Bits of coral．
27．We can infer from the passage thatB．
A．bottom operation has affected most underwater creatures
B．broken branches of coral can regrow if saved in time
C．hundreds of the coralbots have worked well in the oceans
D．with the coralbots all damaged coral reefs can be restored．
6．energetic（　　）
A．evaluateB．existC．evidenceD．edition
3．British planning experts are heading to China to advise on building cities that do not damage the environment．They will address mayors on the need to avoid U．S．Model by building dense（稠密的） cities with low-carbon buildings and good public transport．Their visit follows a report warning that the road-based U．S．Model could make climate change impossible to control．
Europe's densely-populated cities，with strong public transport links，are held up as an example for China to follow．By good planning and spending a little more，livable new cities could be built with low-carbon infrastructure（基础设施）．In China many institutions are taking the climate more seriously than before and the traveling group from Britain's Town and Country Planning Association will meet officials from the Chinese government's economic research agency in a workshop on low-carbon buildings．
They will also meet officers in fast-growing Shenyang，which has more than six million inhabitants（居民）．On another day they will present their ideas at the National Academy．Several of China's major cities suffer heavy traffic jams．Some of their leaders are now looking for new ideas to make cities more densely-populated，while the mayors of some fast-growing cities are hoping to build in a less energy-consuming way．
China also suffers a crisis of agricultural land，so high-density planning has many benefits．Kate Henderson said"As more and more people across the world move from rural to urban areas we must guarantee our cities grow stably．"This means delivering schools，parks and public transport alongside employment areas and housing．"We look forward to sharing our thinking on how Garden City principles can be applied-both to creating new cities and to renewing existing ones．"

28．Why does the writer mention U．S．Model in the passageC？
A．To show the advantages of Europe's Model．
B．To enrich our knowledge about City Model．
C．To tell us its disadvantages and give us a warning．
D．To convey American experts'views on city planning．
29．What is unique for Europe's densely-populated citiesD？
A．The road-based Model is good for the environment．
B．It can speed up the growth of the newly-built cities．
C．Its inhabitants enjoy the convenience of the wide roads．
D．Its designs focus on low-carbon buildings and public transport．
30．What does the underlined word"they"in Para3refer toA？
A．British planning experts．
B．Mayors from China's major cities．
C．Officers from Shenyang．
D．Leaders from Chinese institutions．
31．What is the best way to make Chinese cities grow stablyD？
A．By saving more agricultural lands．
B．By building apartments near working areas．
C．By persuading people to move to rural parts．
D．By building environment-friendly dense cities．
