15.Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live,we must communicate with other people.A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech.If we travel in buses,buy things in shops,or eat in restaurants,we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions,receive news or comment,and very likely to have our views challenged by other members of society.
Face to face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one of the dominating factors of contemporary society.Two things,above others,have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry.Firstly,inventiveness has led to advanced imprinting,telecommunications photography,radio and television.Secondly,speed has revolutionized the transmission (传输) and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news,which itself is often almost eclipsed( 侵蚀) by international news.
No longer is the possession of information confined to(只限于) a privileged minority.In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate,but today there are public libraries.For years ago people used to flock to the cinema,but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme that is being channeled into millions of homes.
Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information.The modem communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information,education and entertainment.The printing,broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing,educating and entertaining.
Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is part,the vast modem network of communications is open to abuse(滥用).However,the mass media are with us for better,for worse,and there is no turning back.

60.In the first paragraph the writer emphasizes theDof face-to-face contact in social setting.
A.natureB.limitationC.creativityD.usefulness
61.It is implied in the passage thatA.
A.local news used to be the only source of information
B.local news still takes a significant place
C.national news is becoming more popular
D.international news is the fastest transmitted news
62.Which of the following statements is NOT true?B
A.Possessing information used to be a privilege.
B.Public libraries have replaced the private completely.
C.Communication means more than transmission.
D.Information influences ways of life and thinking.
63.From the last paragraph we can infer that the writer isD.
A.indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass media
B.happy about the flexible changes in the mass media
C.pessimistic about the future of the mass media
D.concerned about the wrong use of the mass media.
16.
 A.moderately B.chances C.accommodate D.volume E.conflicting F.flow G.constant H.tapped I.instinct J.seemingly K.slowing
There's nothing that will ruin your day faster than being stuck in a traffic jam all morning,and it's even worse when there's (41)seemingly no reason for it.There's a lot of interesting science behind traffic,though,and while understanding it might not make sitting in it any better,it can teach you how to avoid some of the mistakes we all make behind the wheel.
1.The way we merge (合并) causes problems
Whether you're merging from the left or the right,(42)chances are good that you're doing it wrong and causing all sorts of problems.When most people see that they need to merge,their first (43)instinct is to do it right away.They brake,slow down,speed up,and change lanes in between oncoming traffic.According to the Minnesota department of Transportation,that's completely wrong.Sudden (44)slowing causes traffic to back up,a problem that's made worse by sudden lane changes and other cars braking to (45)accommodate the merging traffic.
So what should you do?Exactly what you probably blame drivers for doing:waiting until the last minute.If you do that,traffic will fall into a more natural pattern called a"zipper merge",meaning there are no surprises,no sudden braking,and a smoother transition from one lane to another,which cuts down on backups.This does,of course,rely on other drivers to let you in at the last minute and be polite enough not to cut you off,which causes all sorts of other problems.
=2.You are causing the traffic Jams you hate
Traffic jams have long been chalked up to (取决于) the (46)volume of traffic on the roads,but it turns out that even heavy traffic can (47)flow smoothly if people maintain a (48)constant speed.The problem is that we can't.Researchers have found that just one person even slightly stepping on their brakes can have a terrible effect on the traffic around them.
On even (49)moderately busy road,it can be only a few minutes for traffic to a complete halt behind someone who (50)tapped their brakes to let another driver merge.The standstill usually occurs several minutes after the braking,well after the person that causes the problem in the first place has gone on his way.
13.Do you know the open-air art gallery in London's Blackall Street?Probably-not.Not many  Londoners know it either,but Henri does and he is willing to show it to you.
Henri used to sleep in parks until he met a charity(慈善机构) that helps homeless people get  back on their feet by becoming tour guides.
Rather than show traditional London sights,"Unseen Tours"take people off the beaten track.Henri has been teaching tourists about the history and architecture of Shoreditch,where he slept on public benches for three years.
When he felt separated from the society,contact with the volunteer network"The Sock Mob"gave Henri hope."Not everyone just looked down on me,"he said.The tours aren't the only actions trying to help those who have suffered a misfortune to stand tall again.
An innovative(创新的) college for homeless people in London,the first ofits kind in the country,is attracting hundreds of students.The Recovery College,set up by St Mungo's charity,is providing  courses designed to improve technical skills and life skills.
According to Andy Williams,who helps to organize the college,the most popular courses have proved to be about raising self-confidence and developing self-pride.
Steve,now in his 50s,told a reporter how much of a difference it makes to"have a bit of confidence".He had difficulty learning to read and had to leave school when he was 12.Because Steve's problem was not recognized at the time,he was"seen to be unable to read or write",and suffered with depression and alcohol addiction.He says the status of"student"is itselfimportant for people who are used to being treated as outcasts(被遗弃者)
Some charities aim not only to help the homeless become independent but also to make them popular.The Homeless World Cup started ten years ago.Today the tournament draws teams from 48countries made up of players-men and women-who are,or have been,living in the streets.It gives them a chance to become football heroes.

31.The underlined part"take people off the beaten track"means"take people toC."
A.famous galleries              B.traditional sights
C.unusualplaces                 D.public benches
32.How does the Recovery College help the homeless people?B
A.By training them to be guides.
B.By offering them different courses.
C.By keeping in contact with them.
D.By asking more students to help them.
33.At the age of 12,SteveA.
A.wasn't treated as a normal student           B.had much confidence in himself
C.didn't want to study at school               D.left school because of depression
34.The purpose of the Homeless World Cup is to help the homeless peopleC.
A.become football stars                     B.improve life skills
C.gain self-confidence                      D.find properjobs
35.Which is the best title for the passage?A
A.Confidence Back Now.   B.London Tour.
C.The Popular Homeless.  D.Football Heroes.
20.How to Be a Winner
Steven Redgrave--Winner of 5Olympic Gold Medals
"In 2012I was found to have developed lung disease.(33)Believing(believe) my career was over,I felt extremely low.Then one of the specialists said there was no reason why I should stop training and competing.That was it--the encouragement I needed.I could still be a winner(34)as long as I believed in myself.I am not saying that it isn't difficult sometimes.But I wanted to prove to myself that hard(35)though the condition was,I wasn't finished yet.Nothing is to stand in my way."
Karen Pickering--Swimming World Champion
"I swim 4hours a day,6days a week.I manage that sort of workload by putting it on top of my diary.This is the key to success--you(36)can not bear follow a career in any field without being well-organized.List(37)what you believe you can achieve.Trust yourself,write down your goals for the day,however small they are,and you'll be a step closer to achieving them."
Kirsten Best--Poet & Writer
"When things are getting hard,a voice inside my head tells me that I can't achieve something.Then,there are other distractions(干扰),such as family or hobbies.The key is to concentrate,(38)which helps a lot to repeat words such as‘calm',‘peace'or‘focus',either out loud or silently in my mind when I feel tense.It makes me(39)feel(feel) more in control and increases my confidence.This is a habit that can become second nature quite easily and is(40)a powerful psychological(心理的) tool."
10.An interview with Benno Nigg,the sports scientist
A.What kind of technology might we see in sports shoes of the future?
B.What should people look out for when buying a new pair of sports shoes?
C.Will a more expensive shoe make me run faster or jump higher,as the ads suggest?
D.Is it true that expensive shoes are no better at preventing injury than cheap ones?
E.Some people say we should run just as well without shoes.What's your opinion?
F.You helped develop the unstable Masai MBT shoes.Does this design actually work?
76.D
Nigg's Answer:That is a little bit overstated.But the literature shows that shoes are a minor player in injury development.If you take a group of people and want to injure them,send them out every day for a 20-kilometre run.A lot of them will be injured in three weeks.The major factors are the distance run,the intensity and recovery time,not the shoes.
77.B
Nigg's Answer:The problem is that if you go to a store and want to find your best shoes,you don't know what to do.Things that are sometimes done,like video analysis of your rear foot movement,may not help.The only way to assess whether a shoe is right for you is how it feels.If you feel comfortable in a shoe,it's likely to be good for you.
78.C
Nigg's Answer:A shoe may act as a training device,making some muscles to function more effectively for a majority of users.Or it may use materials that last longer.That may have something to do with its price.However,for the average runner it is difficult to distinguish between actual functional designs and unnecessary features.Generally,the more a shoe controls movement,the more it acts like a cast,which means you lose some muscle strength,and your feet are more likely to be injured.
79.F
Nigg's Answer:Yes,for about 80per cent of people.The major benefits are training the small muscles crossing the ankle joint,and a reduction of knee and lower back pain.However,some claims for these unstable shoes are overstated,such as the general muscle strengthening that they are claimed to produce.
80.E
Nigg's Answer:There are claims that there are fewer injuries when you run barefoot,but there is not yet enough evidence,or enough research,to prove that.If you look at performance,most papers suggest an advantage of 3to 4per cent.With a few exceptions,people don't run barefoot,so it may be that it's not an advantage,or it may be that we're just not used to it.
17.If you don't have a college degree,you're at greater risk of developing memory problems or even Alzheimer's (老年痴呆).Education plays a key role in lifelong memory performance and risk for mental disorder,and it's well documented that those with a college degree possess a cognitive(认知的) advantage over those less educated in middle and old age.
Now,a large national study from Brandeis University published in the American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry shows that those with less schooling can significantly make up for poorer education by frequently engaging in mental exercises such as word games,puzzles,reading,and lectures.
"The lifelong benefits of higher education for memory in later life are quite impressive,but we do not clearly understand how and why these effects last so long,"said lead author Margie Lachman,a psychologist.She suggested that higher education may encourage lifelong interest in cognitive efforts,while those with less education may not engage as frequently in mental exercises that help keep the memory agile (敏捷地).
But education early in adulthood does not appear to be the only route to maintain your memory.The study found that intellectual activities undertaken regularly made a difference."Among individuals with low education,those who are engaged in reading,writing,attending lectures,doing word games or puzzles once a week or more had memory scores similar to people with more education,"said Lachman.
The study,called Midlife in the United States,assessed 3,343men and women between the ages of 32and 84with an average age of 56years.Almost 40percent of the participants had at least a 4-year college degree.The researchers evaluated how the participants performed in two cognitive areas,verbal (言语的)memory and executive function---brain processes involved in planning,abstract thinking and cognitive flexibility.Participants were given a series of tests,including tests of verbal fluency,word recall,and backward counting.
As expected,those with higher education said they engaged in cognitive activities more often and also did better on the memory tests,but some with lower education also did well,explained Lachman.
"The findings are promising because they suggest there may be ways to level the playing field for those with lower educational achievement,and protect those at greatest risk for memory declines,"said Lachman."Although we can not rule out the possibility that those who have better memories are the ones who take on more activities,the evidence is consistent with cognitive plasticity (可塑性),and suggests some degree of personal control over cognitive functioning in adulthood by adopting an intellectually active lifestyle."

72.What is the text mainly about?C
A.Higher education has a better cognitive advantage.
B.Better memories result from college degree.
C.Cognitive activity does good to one's mind.
D.Poor education has more risk of memory declines.
73.According to the result of Margie Lachman's study,we can conclude thatD.
A.education is responsible for the lifelong memory performance and risk for mental disorder
B.education early in adulthood can be the only route to maintain your memory
C.those with higher education did better on the memory tests than those with lower education
D.an intellectually active lifestyle does help to maintain your memory
74.What do we know about the study called Midlife?B
A.Participants each were given a battery to test their memory.
B.The average age of the participants are 56years old.
C.Participants had to perform in one of the two cognitive areas.
D.One in four of the participants had a 4-year college degree.
75.Why are the findings of the Lachman's study promising?A
A.The lower educated may have the same opportunities to keep up memory.
B.We may have ways to cure the people who have memory declines.
C.Adopting a different lifestyle can control cognitive functioning.
D.We can find out the possibility to have better memories.
14.Best High School Band Plays Turner Field
The North Cobb High School Band routinely takes the field every Friday night during football season.The band plays at North Cobb football games.

15.The survey by The Harvard Crimson was emailed to incoming first year undergraduates; 1,600 students responded.Results showed that at least a tenth of the students polled admitted to having cheated on an exam before starting at the university,while almost half admitted to cheating on their homework.
Athletes were apparently the most prone to cheating.20 percent of students who played a university sport admitted to cheating on an exam compared to 9 percent of students who did not.
The survey also revealed that men were not only more likely to cheat but were also more likely to admit to it.
The results,compared to a previous survey done on the class of 2013,suggested that cheating may be becoming more commonplace.Of the outgoing seniors only 7 percent admitted to cheating in an exam and another 7 percent said they had been dishonest on a take-home test.32 percent of the seniors said they had cheated on homework during their undergraduate years.
The surveys come in the wake of a cheating scandal at the university which saw 120 students investigated for sharing answers on an exam in 2012.
One recent graduate stated:"Cheating was commonplace when I was at Harvard,especially with students in their first year or two.I would say as many as 60 per cent of students took notes into some exams.No one really cared and the faculty,well some of them at least,seemed to recognize and yet ignore the problem".
