15．A recent study led by researchers from the National University of Singapore （NUS） has found a clear link between the color of a taxi and its accident rate．An analysis of 36 months of detailed taxi，driver and accident data from two fleets of yellow and blue taxis in Singapore suggested that yellow taxis have fewer accidents than blue taxis．The higher visibility （能见度） of yellow makes it less difficult for drivers to avoid getting into accidents with yellow taxis，leading to a lower accident rate．
The study was led by Prof Ho．To test whether there was a relationship between the color of a taxi and the number of accidents the taxi had，the research team analysed data collected by the largest taxi company in Singapore．The researchers found that yellow taxis have about 6.1 fewer accidents per 1，000 taxis per month．
They also studied the economic effect of changing the color of the entire fleet of taxis to yellow．The Singapore taxi company involved in the study owns about 16，700 taxis in a ratio （比例） of one yellow to three blue taxis．If a commercial decision is made to switch from blue to yellow taxis，76.6 fewer accidents will occur per month or 917 fewer accidents per year．
Assuming an average repair cost of﹩1，000 per car and a downtime of six days，the color of all taxis to yellow could produce an annual saving of﹩2 million．
"We are eager to continue to validate （证实） the findings of our study by looking at the use of yellow in other types of public transport，such as school buses．For example，we hope to compare the accident rates of yellow school buses against those of other colors to find out if yellow is indeed a safer color for school buses．Besides，we're also interested to look at private-hire vehicles and do a comparison of the accident rates of vehicles that are of different colors explained Prof Ho．

32．Why do yellow taxis result in fewer accidents？B
A．Because yellow signals a warning of danger．
B．Because yellow can be seen more easily．
C．Because drivers tend to he more careful in yellow taxis．
D．Because people act more quickly in yellow surroundings．
33．What's Prof Ho's study based on？D
A．Physical risks taxi passengers experience．
B．The economic effect of changing taxi color．
C．Personal reports from taxi drivers worldwide．
D．Data from Singapore's largest taxi company．
34．What do Prof Ho's words in the last paragraph suggest？C
A．School buses should be painted yellow．
B．Their findings are worth popularizing．
C．Their study will be furthered．
D．Yellow should be widely used in public transport，
35．What can be the best title for the text？A
A．Safer to ride in yellow taxis
B．Caution：yellow taxis ahead
C．Why are yellow Taxis preferred？
D．How can colors help prevent accidents？

12．Social media and the mobile web have given rise to a strange phenomenon called the selfie．It refers to a picture of yourself，usually shared on any social networking website．
（36）BSome selfies are extreme close-ups，and others show part of an arm held straight outward．A few of them even feature the subject standing in front of a bathroom mirror．
Everyone takes selfies，but the younger crowd seems to be especially involved in the trend．Young people are relatively heavier digital users．They are interested in staying connected to their friends．（37）D
There are also kinds of psychological factors driving people to take a selfie and upload it to a social networking site．（38）EA quick and easy way to attract other's attention is to get"likes"and comments from friends．Secondly，it's human nature to show off your own great achievements．When you feel good about yourself or look good，it's far too easy to take out your phone and document it all through one or several selfies．（39）G That's right．Sometimes people are bored at work，bored at school，bored at home and even bored on the toilet．Last but not least，social media is about being social!If that means uploading as many selfies as possible，then so be it．It's fun，and it's a cool way to sort of document your own life．
Finally，there are things to be mindful of when you're posting．It's easy to think you're sharing a photo with a few people．（40）FSo don't post anything online，selfie especially．

A．The rise of selfies has become universal．
B．There are lots of selfie styles．
C．The desire to take，post and get"likes"on selfies goes back to a biological behavior．
D．Social media，to some extent，is the driving force of their selfie activity．
E．The leading factor is that people want to get attention from as many people as possible．
F．But the whole world of social media is public and every individual can get access to it．
G．There are also people who will take selfies because they have nothing else better to do．

9．Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days，but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher．
If I have learned anything in my 16 years，it is that communication is very important，both when you disagree and when you get along．With any relationship，you need to let other person know how you are feeling．If you are not able to communicate，you drift apart．When you are mad at your parents，or anyone else，not talking to them doesn't solve anything．
Communication begins with the concerns（关心）of another．It means that you can't just come home from school，go up to your room and ignore everyone．Even if you just say"Hi"，and see how their day was for five minutes，it is better than nothing．
If you looked up the word"communication"in a dictionary，it would say"the exchange of ideas，the conveyance（表达）of information，means of communication：a letter or a message"．To maintain（保持）a good relationship，you must keep communication strong．Let people know how you feel even if it's just by writing a note．
When dealing with parents，you always have to make them feel good about how they me doing as a parent．If you are trying to make them see something as you see it，tell them that you'll listen to what they have to say，but ask them politely to listen to you．Yelling or walking away only makes the situation on worse．
This is an example：one night，Sophie went to a street party with her friends．She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks，but she didn't feel she could just ask to go home．That would be rude．After all，they had been nice enough to take her along will them．Needless to say，she was late getting home．Her parents were mad at first，not when Sophie explained why she was late，they weren't as mad and let the incident go．Communication is the key factor here．If Sophie's parents had not been willing to listen，Sophie would have bee in a lot of trouble．
Communication isn't a one-way deal：it goes both ways．Just remember：if you get into a situation like Sophie's，telling the other person how you feel-listening is the key factor to communication．

58．In the writer's view，dealing with parents isBthan with children．
A．easier
B．more difficult
C．more uninteresting
D．more interesting
59．The main idea of the second paragraph isA．
A．the importance of communication
B．to make your feeling known to others
C．the importance of friendship
D．the disagreement between generations
60．The example in this passage proves thatD．
A．Sophie's parents are willing to listen to her
B．Sophie is very polite to ha parents
C．Sophie did well in explaining her being late
D．communication is the solution to misunderstanding
61．All the following statements are correct except"D"．
A．If you don't agree with others，you'd better let them know
B．Communication is a two-day deal
C．It is better to say"Hi"to others than say nothing
D．If you are not able to communicate，walk away．

16．When someone is happy，can you smell it？
You can usually tell when someone is happy based on seeing them smile，hearing them laugh or perhaps from receiving a big hug．But can you also smell their happiness？Surprising new research suggests that happiness does indeed have a scent（气味），and that the experience of happiness can be spread through smell，reports Phys．org．
For the study，12young men were shown videos meant to bring about a variety of emotions while researchers gathered sweat samples from them．All of the men were healthy and none of them were drug users or smokers，and all were asked to abstain from drinking or eating smelly foods during the study period．
Those sweat samples were then given to 36 equally healthy young women to smell，while researchers monitored their reactions．Only women were selected to smell the samples，apparently because previous research has shown that women have a better sense of smell than men and are also more sensitive to emotional signaling-though it's unclear why only men were chosen to produce the scents．
Researchers found that the behavior of the women after smelling the scents-particularly their facial expressions-suggested a relationship between the emotional states of the men who produced the sweat and the women who smelled them．
"Human sweat produced when a person is happy brings about a state similar to happiness in somebody who breathes this smell，"said study co-author Gun Semin，a professor at Koc University in Turkey．
This is a fascinating finding because it not only means that happiness does have a scent，but that the scent can transmit the feeling to others．The study also found that other feelings，such as fear，seem to carry a scent too．This ensures previous research suggesting that some negative feelings have a smell，but it is the first time this has proved to be true of positive feelings．
Researchers have yet to isolate（分离） exactly what the chemical compound for the happiness smell is，but you might imagine what the potential applications for such a finding could be．Happiness perfumes，for instance，could be invented．Scent therapies（香味疗法）could also be developed to help people through depression or anxiety．
Perhaps the most surprising result of the study，however，is our broadened understanding of how feelings get communicated，and also how our own emotions are potentially managed through our social context and the emotional states of those around us．

27．What is the main finding of the new research？C
A．Men produce more sweats．
B．Negative feelings have a smell．
C．Pleasant feelings can be smelt out．
D．Women have a better sense of smell．
28．The underlined part"abstain from"in Paragraph 3 probably meansA．
A．avoid B．practice C．continue D．try
29．What is the application value of the new research？B
A．Perfumes could help people understand each other．
B．Some smells could be developed to better our mood．
C．Perfumes could be produced to cure physical diseases．
D．Some smells could be created to improve our appearance．
30．We can learn from the last paragraph thatD．
A．happiness comes from a scent of sweat
B．positive energy can deepen understanding
C．people need more emotional communication
D．social surroundings can influence our emotions．
