【题目】Some people are so rude!

Who sends an email or a text message that just says “Thank you”? Who leaves a voice mail message rather than texts you? Who asks for a fact easily found on Google? Don’t these people realize that they’re wasting your time?

Maybe I’m the rude one for not appreciating life’s little politeness. But many social agreed standards just don’t make sense to people drowning in digital communication.

In texts, you don’t have to declare who you are or even say hello. Email, too, is slower than a text. Voice mail is a now impolite way of trying to connect.

My father learned this lesson after leaving me a dozen voice mail messages, none of which I listened to. Exasperated, he called my sister to express his dissatisfaction that I never returned his phone calls. “Why are you leaving him voice mail?” my sister asked. “Just text him.”

In the age of the smartphone, there is no reason to ask onceacceptable questions about: the weather forecast, a business’s phone number, or directions to a house, a restaurant, which can be easily found on Google Maps. But people still ask these things. And when you answer, they respond with a thankyou email.

How to handle these differing standards? Easy. Consider your audience. Some people, especially older ones, appreciate a thankyou message. Others, like me, want no reply.

The anthropologist (人类学家) Margaret Mead once said that in traditional societies, the young learn from the old. But in modern societies, the old can also learn from the young. Here’s hoping that politeness never goes out of fashion but that timewasting forms of communication do.

1What does the underlined word “Exasperated” mean in the fifth paragraph?

A. Worried. B. Surprised.

C. Annoyed. D. Tired.

2Why didn’t the writer reply to his father?

A. He liked text messages better.

B. He enjoyed checking his voice mail.

C. He didn’t receive any voice mail messages.

D. He didn’t want to talk with his father.

3Which of the following does the writer agree to?

A. People needn’t learn from one another in traditional societies.

B. Dealing with voice mail should vary with each individual.

C. People needn’t turn to Google for help when in trouble.

D. Declaring who you are or saying hello in texts is necessary.

4What’s the best title for this passage?

A. Nowadays: what should we do with text messages?

B. Nowadays: do you like leaving others a voice message?

C. Nowadays: what means should we use in communication?

D. Nowadays: do you need a thankyou message?

【题目】Why Mars (火星) is New Settlement

Is it possible to live on other planets? The United States government is taking a serious look at the moon and Mars as potential places for future human settlement. The moon could serve as a training ground for later journeys to Mars. Currently, with Mars becoming the eventual long-term goal, serious questions exist as to whether the dangers of the settlement on the moon are too extreme and unnecessary.

One major reason the settlement on the moon is too dangerous is the difference between the atmosphere environment of the moon and Mars. Atmosphere is important because it protects humans and all other life from a continuous attack of radiation (辐射) caused by sources such as the sun. This radiation is especially dangerous to humans because it increases the risk of cancer and can negatively change DNA. The fact that the moon has no atmosphere can cause great harm to human beings. Although Mars atmosphere is significantly thinner than Earth’s, at least it has one and would create some sort of protective barrier for humans.

Another important characteristic necessary for human settlement is natural resources like water, of which the moon is believed to have none. Mars, however, contains vast quantities of water ice, dry ice, and also snow. There is also sufficient evidence that water once existed at the surface of Mars and might return in the future if the planet warms. With increased technologies, the potential for settlers to remain on Mars by being increasingly self-sufficient makes Mars a much more attractive goal as the space settlement than the moon.

Future settlers will not only benefit from potential water on Mars; the planet is also rich in other natural resources such as oxygen, hydrogen, and minerals, which can be well used in productive ways. For example, hydrogen can be used as fuel, and it can be combined with nitrogen (氮气) to form new materials necessary for human settlement. Due to these advantages,

Mars would be a more successful planet for exploration and settlement because it contains the basic resources necessary for humans to survive.

Since the environment of Mars is more similar to that of Earth and it contains resources necessary to help life exist, it should be the only option for any kind of long-term human settlement. The settlement on Mars would not only be a milestone in space but also an excellent chance for mankind to improve itself from past adventures on Earth and preserve and make the best use of the natural resources Mars has to offer.

1According to Paragraph 2, the atmosphere on Mars would .

A. change the DNA structure of humans

B. measure the harmful radiation from space

C. provide protection against dangerous effects

D. cause humans to be exposed to serious illnesses

2What can be inferred about water on Mars?

A. It is not present in a liquid state.

B. It doesnt exist in large quantities.

C. It will bring potential dangers to settlers.

D. It can be easily changed into liquid forms.

3The author believes that .

A. exploration of Mars takes great risk

B. natural resources on Mars last forever

C. settlement on Mars is perfectly acceptable

D. Mars is more suitable for settlement than Earth

4Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage?

CP: Central Point P: Point Sp: Sub-point (次要点) C: Conclusion
