分析 本文写了一只狗seep，小汤姆管它叫keep，有时候seep会从外边带回来一些东西．故事中带回来一只鞋子却不知道鞋子的主人是谁．

解答 51．C 推理判断题．根据句子I think someone tried to clean a spot （污点） off the shoe．Then he put it at the door to dry．我想有人试图擦掉鞋上的污点．然后他把它放在门口晾干．可见没有人知道这个礼物是谁的，所以答案选C．
52．D．细节理解题．根据句子But when Tom tries to say"Seep"，it comes out"keep"．但当汤姆试图说"Seep"的时候，他就说成了"keep"．可见是因为发音的问题而读错了音，所以答案选D．
53．B 细节理解题．根据句子my big sister，told me the shoe had a strange smell．我的姐姐告诉我的鞋有一个奇怪的气味．所以答案选B．
54．B 推理判断题．根据句子We don't know where Zip found it．我们不知道在哪里找到它的，由此推断汤姆所说的"a keep dog!"就是收藏东西的一只狗，keep是保留的意思，所以答案选B．
55．C 推理判断题．根据句子 Zip is always bringing things home for us to keep，zip总是带回来东西给我们收藏，从故事中可知它竟不知道从哪里带回来一只鞋子，可见这只狗有时会带来麻烦，所以答案选C．

10．The‘Phone  Stack（堆）'Game
Whenever Michael Carl，the fashion market director at Vanity Fair，goes out to dinner with friends，he plays something，called the"phone stack"game：Everyone places their phones in the middle of the table； whoever looks at their device before the check arrives picks up the bill．As smartphones continue to burrow（钻入） their way into our lives，and wearable devices like Google Glass threaten to eat into our person space even further，overburdened users are carving out their own device-free zones with special tricks and life hacks．
"Disconnecting is a luxury that we all need，"Lesley M．M．Blume，a New York writer keeps her phone away from the dinner table at home．"The expectation that we must always be available to employers，colleague，family：It creates a real obstacle in trying to set aside private time．But that private time is more important than ever．"Much of the digital detoxing （戒毒）is centered on the home，where urgent e-mails from co-workers，texts from friends，Instagram photos from acquaintances and updates on Facebook get together to disturb domestic quietness．
A popular method is to appoint a kind of cellphone lockbox，like the milk tin that Brandon Holley，the former editor of lucky magazine，uses．"If my phones is buzzing or lighting up，it's still a distraction，so it goes in the box．"，said Ms．Holley，who lives in a row house in Red Hook，Brooklyn，with her son，Smith，and husband，John．"It's not something I want my kid to see．"Sleep is a big factor，which is why some people draw the cellphone-free line at the bedroom．"I don't want to sleep next to something that is a charged ball of information with photos an e-mails，"said Peter Som，the fashion designer，who keeps his phone plugged in the living room overnight．""It definitely is a head clearer and describes daytime and sleep time clearly．"
Households with young children are especially mindful about being overconnected，with parents sensitive to how children may imitate bad habits．But it's not just inside the home where users are separating themselves from the habit．Cellphone overusers are making efforts to disconnect in social settings，whether at the request of the host or in the form of friendly competition．The phone-stack game is a lighthearted way for friends to police against rude behavior when eating out．The game gained popularity after Brian Perez，a dancer in Los Angeles，posted the idea online．

63．What might be the reason for Michael Carl to play the"phone stack"game？C
A．His friends aren't willing to pay for the meal voluntarily．
B．He wants to do some funny things with those phones
C．He has been fed up with digital devices being present everywhere

64．Why is it difficulty for people to break away from their digital device at home？B
A．Because they have to do some work at home
B．Because they are expected to be always available to the outside
C．Because people have been addicted to digital devices．
D．Because digital devices can enrich people's family life．
65．What does Peter Som do to ensure his sleeping quality at night？A
A．He  puts his phone in the living room．
B．He ignores any information in the phone
C．He deletes all information in his phone
D．He puts his phones in a lockbox
66．Why does the phone-stack game become popular as soon as it is posted online？D
A．The game helps create a harmonious relationship among friends．
B．The game makes the host get along well with the guest
C．The game can prevent children from imitating their parents'behavior
D．The game meets people's demand for keeping away from phones easily．
17．If you live in a big city，there are many things to drive you crazy on your daily route，and it's not just overcrowded subway trains．
Vicky Zhao is a mainlander working in Hong Kong．For her，one thing she can't put up with is people standing on the wrong side of the escalator（自动扶梯） in subway stations．"Escalators help us move faster and save time．It isn't a place to rest，"the 24-year-old says．"I often see tourists block the way with their suitcases or chatting on the escalators during rush hours．It annoys me to no end．"
Admitting she is not the patient type，Zhao says things are much better in Hong Kong than in cities on the mainland where"stand right，walk left"signs are often ignored．
The logic behind the"stand right，walk left"escalator etiquette（礼仪） seems obvious．Even though you may want to catch your breath while you're transported up or down，you should still consider others and leave enough space for people in a hurry，so that they can run and catch the train．
Many cities'escalators，including London's and Beijing's，use the"stand right，walk left"system to speed up the flow of people．（Australia is an exception and you should stand on the left side instead．） But some cities discourage people from moving on escalators out of safety reasons．In Hong Kong's subway stations there are regular announcements asking people to"stand still"on escalators．Even so，most people in this fast-paced city observe the"stand right，walk left"etiquette．
But the people who stand on escalators defend themselves by telling the walkers not to be so impatient．The BBC quotes one stander as saying："If the person is in such a rush，why not just take the stairs？Even when the escalator is packed and there's nowhere to move，I see these same people complaining about not being able to pass．"
Whatever the escalator etiquette is in the place you live or visit，do what most people are doing and always be mindful of others：leave enough space between each other，don't stay at the end of the escalator，and if someone is blocking your way，a simple"excuse me"is enough．

19．When on the escalator，a majority of local people in Hong KongD．
A．stand still as the railway stations require．
B．ignore the"stand right，walk left"signs
C．use the stairs instead of escalators．
D．follow the"stand right，walk left"etiquette．
20．What can be inferred from the 6th paragraph？A
A．Not everyone follows the"stand right，walk left"etiquette．
B．The BBC is against the"stand right，walk left"etiquette．
C．People should be patient and take the stairs if possible．
D．People shouldn't complain about the crowded escalators．
21．Which of the following statements is the writer's opinion？B
A．People should stand right no matter where they are．
B．People should do as the Romans do and consider others．
C．People should do as they like on the escalators．
D．People should be seriously criticized when they block the way．

11．
Online Degree Programs Face Barriers to SuccessThe United States Department of Education has noted the growing popularity of online degree programs，known as‘distance education'．It reported that 14 percent of all students at American colleges and universities studied through such programs in 2014．
Leanne is one of those students．Her goal was to earn a master's degree in nursing from George Washington University in Washington，D．C．She signed up for the university's online program in 2014．
Leanne chose to study online for many of the same reasons that other students do．She was working full-time，and did not want to move away from her job and family to continue her education．Leanne liked that she was able to study whenever and however much she wanted．
But while the program met her needs at first，Leanne feels there are things she did not get from studying online．She earned her undergraduate degree from a traditional，face-to-face study program at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia，Pennsylvania．
Leanne says physically being in a classroom helps build a strong connection between students and their professors．She says in some ways she liked taking control and leading her own studies．But many times，she also felt lost without that special connection．
"In the end，there's really no substitute for the exchanges that actually happen in a classroom．So if I were to do it again，I don't know whether I would have made the same decision．"
In addition，it may not be just a student's learning that suffers in a distance learning program．There is some concern about what future employers think about an online degree．
Public Agenda is a nonprofit research organization in the United States．In 2013，the group reported on a study of over 600 employment specialists working for American companies．
Fifty-six percent said they were more likely to offer jobs to people with a more traditional college experience，where students and teachers meet face-to-face．Forty-two percent said they thought students in online programs learned less than those in traditional programs．And 39 percent of those questioned said they thought online programs were easier to complete．
It is hard for people to change their ideas about higher education from a professor teaching students in a classroom．Also，some employers may have limited understanding of what is possible through an online program．Many people think studying online just means watching videos of teachers talking．Yet technology is always changing．Computer programs may someday educate and test students in ways human teachers cannot．
However，until there are widely accepted standards for online programs，critical opinions about what online programs can do will likely remain．There is still a long way to go before online and traditional programs operate on the same level．
 
1．Students may choose online study programs because of the following reasons EXCEPT thatB．
A．they can't stop working to continue their education
B．they don't like to take control of their own studies
C．they can decide time and place for their studies
D．they don't want to be away from their family

D．need
3．We can infer from the passage thatC．
A．students in online programs can't find jobs after graduation
B．Leanne thought online programs suited her better than traditional ones
C．widely accepted standards will win more supporters for online programs 
D．computer programs have more advantages in educating and testing students  
4．What's the author's attitude towards online programs？D

12．Universities and colleges in the United States are trying new programs for international students to increase enrollment and income．Some universities are experimenting with bringing international high school students to their campuses．These programs permit students to complete their high school diploma while earning college credit at the same time．
One example of this model is at the University of Southern Maine，or USM．The program is called the"International Academy"．The school is expecting its first class of international high school students this fall．Joanna Evans is the director for the academy．The program is officially a"boarding school on a university campus"that serves 11th and 12th grade international high school students only．
The students will take classes at the University of Southern Maine to complete their high school diploma．However，because the classes are university-level，the students will receive college credit at the same time．
According to Evans，the students they recruit will have to be very strong．Their course schedule will be the same as taking only advanced-placement courses．The goal is that，by the time they complete their high school diploma at the academy，they will be ready to start college as a third-year college student．
Their English language skills also must be strong．The Academy looks for students with a minimum Test of English as a Foreign Language，or TOEFL score of 79，or a 6.5on the International English Testing System，or IELTS．However，there are classes available to provide additional English language training when the students arrive if they need it．
All incoming students at the academy are required to take a college writing class in their first term．If English is not their first language，they will take a class taught by teachers with a background in teaching students who speak English as a foreign language．
Although they are only high school students，the expectations are the same as college students．"Students need to be ready to take university classes，and that is the deal"Evans said．

32．How does the new program"International Academy"benefit students？A
A．Shortening their time at school．
B．Offering free education．
C．Supplying free room and board．
D．Giving up courses in high school．
33．Which of the following can replace the underlined word"recruit"in Paragraph 4？D
A．refuse    B．train    C．value    D．admit
34．Which of the following is an entrance requirement of the students？B
A．Being very creative．
B．High English level．
C．High intelligence．
D．Wealthy background．
35．What are the students of the new program expected to do？C
A．Have a high level of writing．
B．Build up strong enough bodies．
C．Achieve what college students do．
D．Progress with help of experienced teachers．
