After a particularly busy period at work, I decided to get away from it all by going on a hike in the mountains in southern France.

Before I left, I read an interesting story in a magazine. It read, “Once, while I was riding on a crowded bus, the man sitting next to me threw his cell phone out of the window when his phone rang. I was surprised. He looked at me, shrugged (耸耸肩) and looked away. I had no idea whether it was his or stolen or whether he even knew what a cell phone was or not, but he clearly wanted to be free of it, because it clearly troubled him. ”

Billions of people across the world use cell phones. Though cell phones are a wonderful way for communication, they often do the exact opposite. Using cell phones can increase stress within families and friends.

So when I recently returned home, I got rid of my cell phone. Now I go outside without taking my phone with me. I’ve noticed things in my neighborhood I never noticed before, such as gardens. I’ve met new people, started conversations with neighbors I didn’t speak to before and talked with some of my friends face to face instead of chatting over the phone.

Instead of keeping me off from the world, stopping using my cell phone has helped me get even closer to my family and friends.

1.According to the story, the man on the bus threw away his cell phone because ______.

A. it didn’t work properly

B. it was stolen from someone else

C. he didn’t like the phone’s style

2.We can learn from the passage that cell phones _____.

A. are too expensive for many people

B. can also get people into trouble

C. stop people from communicating face to face

D. can make life more interesting

3.What can we learn about the author?

B. He always chatted with his neighbors.

C. He used to take his cell phone when going outside.

D. He once rode on a crowded bus in France.

4.The main purpose of the passage is to _______.

A. tell us not to let cell phones control our lives

B. encourage others to hike with him in France

C. share his experiences in France with us

D. teach us how to get along with neighbors

Keeping pace with teachers is a fine way to study English. Teachers are experienced and their plans are systematic. But remember to work in a way that suits you. It's important to learn from past mistakes as well. Keep a notebook to make a record of the mistakes you make-it'll help you avoid making the same ones later.

The time of life may be hard,but you're not alone. You may be busy studying,but you can show your care by calling your friends or sending short messages. Don't let your friendships die.

It's as important to live well as it is to study well. Going to bed no later than 11:30 pm is vital(极重要的). It puts you in the right mood for the next day. You needn't follow a special diet,but make sure you are eating nutritious meals each day.

The person who plays well,studies well. Having a lot of schoolwork doesn't mean having to give up other activities. Playing basketball or having a talk with your classmates can relax yourself. Time out is not a waste of time but helps you study more efficiently.

Besides taking the big exam,you have other choices for college. I took the independent enrollment exam held by Peking University and some other students even were preparing to study abroad. Pay attention to any relevant(相关的)information you can find,whether it's from school,the news media or other sources.

“Your first home,” Laurence Yep wrote in his book, The Lost Garden, “will always be the one that you remember best. I have been away from it for over twenty years, but I still go back in my dreams.” For Yep, whose father came from China, home was an apartment and the family grocery store in a neighborhood of San Francisco. It was there that he learned about patience, hard work, and getting along with neighbors.

Mr. Brown, Laurence Yep’s high school English teacher, often set high goals for his students. He was the first person to encourage Yep to write. The experience of that class changed the direction of Yep’s life. At the age of 18 Yep published his first short story, a sci-fi fantasy. He has since written many books and many kinds of books. He has retold Chinese folk stories and written for the theater. In nearly all these varied works, Yep, who is married to the children’s book author Joanne Ryder, has returned to questions he has been asking himself since childhood: What does it mean to be Chinese and American? Can one who belongs to two cultures ever feel at home anywhere?

When asked, “How has being of a Chinese by origin been important to you?” Laurence Yep replied, “As a child I wanted to be as American as possible. Then, in my early twenties, I became very interested in my Chinese roots. For years after that, I thought that my function as a Chinese American writer was to act as a bridge between two cultures. Now, though, I am not so sure that it is possible to join them together. Compared with Asian culture, American culture pays more attention to individuals and competition. The two cultures pull in opposite directions. So I see myself now as someone who will always be on the border between two cultures. That works to my benefit as a writer because not quite fitting in helps me be a better observer.”

Cheaters called “pirates” often use camcorders(便携式摄像机) and cell phones to make illegal copies of blockbusters in the local theater. These pirates then sell those recordings on the street or over the Internet for very low prices. Some share them for free.

“It’s unfair for people to pirate movies,” says 15-year-old Hadaia Azad Ezzulddin. Movie piracy “takes money out of the pockets of thousands of people in the movie industry,” she notes. Victims include famous actors and directors as well as local theater owners and their employees.

Hadaia came up with an idea that could help stop movie piracy. Hadaia’s idea uses infrared(红外线的) light. This range of light is invisible to the human eye. It is visible, however, to many types of cameras. Theater owners could place small infrared lights on their movie screens. The lights would not disturb people watching the movie. It would, however, distort the recordings made by many types of cameras.

To test her idea, Hadaia built a box with a movie screen inside. Then, she projected images on that screen through a hole in the box. She took recordings of those images, using nine different types of cameras. These included the types found in cell phones as well as camcorders. During some tests, she also turned on light emitting diodes(发光二极管), or LEDs. The LEDs were embedded(植入的)in a certain place behind the movie screen. They gave out infrared light.

Sure enough, she showed, a pirated movie included odd stripes or spots if it had been recorded while the LEDs were on. It might be possible to use the LEDs to flash the date and time on the movie screen. The information would then appear in the illegal recordings. Theater owners or police might use the information to track down the pirates.

Cutting down on piracy might get more people into theaters to watch the real movie instead of an illegal copy. Six out of every ten films now produced aren’t profitable. They don’t make enough money to recover how much was spent to make and market them. Such a poor payback can discourage filmmakers from producing anything but the types expected to become blockbuster hits. It might also keep smaller theaters from showing a wider variety of movie types.

1.From what Hadaia says in Paragraph 2, we can infer that _______.

A. most people spend less money on pirates moves

B. the pirates don’t have to pay for the movie tickets

C. theater owners will increase the price of movie tickets

D. she strongly criticizes those who video movies in the theater

2.Infrared lights are put on the movie screens to _______.

A. adjust the brightness of the movie screens

B. make sure the images of movies are dark

C. make illegal copies of movies unpleasant to see

D. protect the eyesight of viewers in the darkness

3.What is the correct order of the steps in Hadaia’s test?

a. She projected pictures on the screen.

b. She used cameras to record the pictures.

c. She turned on the LEDs placed behind the screen.

d. She made a special box with a movie screen inside.

A. d c a b B. d b a c

C. b a c d D. b c a d

4.According to the last paragraph, we can know that _______.

A. forty percent of movies now are profitable

B. small theaters often choose to show low-cost movies

C. more and more people go to theaters to fight movie piracy

D. filmmakers prefer to produce ordinary movies than blockbusters

If you know exactly what you want, the best route to a job is to get specialized training.A recent survey shows that companies like graduates in such fields as business and health care who can go to work immediately with very little on-the-job training.

That’s especially true of booming fields that are challenging for workers.At Cornell’s School of Hotel Administration, for example, bachelor’s degree graduates get an average of four or five job offers with salaries ranging from the high teens to the low 20s and plenty of chances for rapid advancement.Large companies, especially, like a background of formal education coupled with work experience.

But in the long run, too much specialization doesn’t pay off.Business, which has been flooded with MBAs, no longer considers the degree an automatic stamp of approval.The MBA may open doors and command a higher salary initially, but the impact of a degree washes out after five years

As further evidence of the erosion(销蚀)of corporate(公司的)faith in specialized degrees, Michigan State’s Scheetz cites a pattern in corporate hiring practices.Although companies tend to take on specialists as new hires, they often seek out generalists for middle and upper-level management.“They want someone who isn’t constrained(限制)by nuts and bolts to look at the big picture, ” says Scheetz.

Time and again labor-market analysts mention a need for talents that liberal-arts majors are assumed to have:writing and communication skills, organizational skills, open-mindedness and adaptability, and the ability to analyze and solve problems.David Birch claims he does not hire anybody with an MBA or an engineering degree, “I hire only liberal-arts people because they have a less-than-canned way of doing things, ” says Birch.Liberal-arts means an academically thorough and strict program that includes literature, history, mathematics, economics, science, human behavior-plus a computer course or two.With that under your belt, you can feel free to specialize.“A liberal-arts degree coupled with an MBA or some other technical training is a very good combination in the marketplace, ” says Scheetz.

1. What kinds of people are in high demand on the job market?

A. Students with a bachelor’s degree in humanities.

B. People with an MBA degree from top universities.

C. People with formal schooling plus work experience

D. People with special training in engineering.

2.By saying “…but the impact of a degree washes out after five years”(Line 5, Para.3), the author means ________.

A. most MBA programs fail to provide students with a solid foundation

B. an MBA degree does not help promotion to managerial positions

C. MBA programs will not be as popular in five years’ time as they are now

D. in five people will forget about the degree the MBA graduates have got

3. David Birch claims that he only hires liberal-arts people because ________.

A. they are more capable of handling changing situations

B. they can stick to established ways of solving problems

C. they are thoroughly trained in a variety of specialized fields

D. they have attended special programs in management

4.Which of the following statements does the author support?

A. Specialists are more expensive to hire than generalists.

B. Formal schooling is less important than job training.

C. On-the-job training is, in the long run, less costly.

D. Generalists will outdo specialists in management.
