题目内容

If you’re secretly worried about your smartphone addiction, then the new NoPhone might be just the thing you need．It looks and feels exactly like a smartphone，but it does nothing．It's just a piece of plastic that you can carry around in your hand to fool yourself．

Dutch designer lngmar Larsen came up with the idea as a joke along with his two friends．To their great surprise，the idea received a lot of attention online and people from all over the world stated placing requests for NoPhones of their own．So that’s when the three friends decided to turn to collect enough fund for mass production．

NoPhone is currently a prototype(模型)that will cost only $12 once it hits the market．It is 5.5 inches high，2.6 inches wide and 0.29 inches thick, bringing it quite close to the latest smartphones on the market．It is described as“battery free”，“no upgrades necessary”，“shatterproof(抗震)”，“waterproof'’and“an alternative to constant hand-to-phone contact that allows you to stay connected with the real world”．

“Phone addiction is everywhere．”the designers insist．“It’s ruining your dates．It’s distracting you at concerts．It’s blocking sidewalks．Now，there is a real solution．With a thin．1ight and completely wireless design，the NoPhone acts as a substitute to any smart mobile device，enabling you to always have a phone to hold without giving up potential engagement with your direct environment．”

If you’re interested in NoPhone，but concerned about not being able to take selfies(自拍) anymore．Don’t feel upset．The makers do have an upgrade at no extra charge—the mirror sticker．That way，they say，you can enjoy‘real-time’selfies with your friends when they’re standing right behind you．

1.What can NoPhone do for people according to the text?

A．It is actually a new kind of real smartphone．

B．It can help us stay away from the real world．

1.C 细节理解题。根据文章第四段的Now，there is a real solution．With a thin．1ight and completely wireless design，the NoPhone acts as a substitute to any smart mobile device，enabling you to always have a phone to hold without giving up potential engagement with your direct environment．可知，NoPhone可以成为你的手机的替代品，使你感觉上握着手机，又不会和外界失去联系。故选择C，指它可以帮助人们戒除手机瘾。

2.D 主旨大意题。根据对第三段的阅读可知，这一段主要介绍的是NoPhone的大小、样式、功能等，也就是说是对NoPhone的简单描述。故选择D。

3.A 推理判断题。根据第二段的To their great surprise，the idea received a lot of attention online可知，NoPhone引起了意想不到的注意。而NoPhone并非手机，故选项B错；而通过NoPhone is currently a prototype(模型)that will cost only $12 once it hits the market可知选项C错；通过最后一段的The makers do have an upgrade at no extra charge—the mirror sticker可知选项D错。故选择A。

John Dalton was born in England in 1766. As a small child, John worked in the fields with his older brother, and helped his father in the cloth-making shop. Most poor boys at that time received no education, but John was lucky to attend a nearby school. John was a good student and loved learning. His teachers encouraged him to study many things.

When he was twelve, he opened his first school in a nearby town, but there was very little money. He had to close his school and work in his uncle’s field.

Three years later, he ran a school in Kendall, England with his brother and a friend. They taught many subjects. There, John studied the weather and the nature around him. He collected butterflies and snails. He did many other scientific tests.

In 1793, John moved to Manchester to teach at New College, and began observing the behavior of gases. He began to think about different elements (元素) and how they are made up of.

In 1808, Dalton published a book, A New System of Chemical Philosophy. His atomic masses were not all careful and exact, but they formed the basis for the modern periodic table (元素周期表).

John Dalton died in 1844 in England. Today, scientists everywhere accept Dalton’s idea of how the atoms were made. A simple country boy showed the world a new way of thinking about the universe and how it is made.

I told my friend Graham, "I often walk two miles from my house to the town centre. Unfortunately, there is a big hill on the way." He replied, "You should say 'fortunately’." He explained that I should be glad for the extra exercise that the hill gave.

I thought he was right. My attitude to the hill has now changed. As I approach the foot of the hill and prepare to climb, I tell myself that this hill will help me lose weight and get fit. This hill is my friend. I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill.

Problems are to be faced. We cannot achieve anything with an easy life. Helen Keller once wrote that "Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experiences of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened ..."

Our attitude towards difficulties is of importance in life. From time to time, we all face problems, accidents and difficulties. We cannot choose the situation but we can choose our attitude toward the situation.

How can you change your attitude towards difficulties? Try these steps:1. Face the problem. Do not avoid it. 2. Take a positive attitude. 3. Imagine how you will feel when you solve the problem. 4. Develop an action plan for how to deal with it. 5. Smile.

Many great people like Helen Keller, took these steps to deal with their problems. They chose their attitude. They chose to be positive. They accepted the challenge. They won.

Exhausted，covered in mud and desperately hungry，a team of Swedish athletes sat down for a meal as they prepared to take on a dangerous 20-mile trek through the Ecuadorian rainforest．

As they opened their canned meat，a tired Mikael Lindnord noticed a miserable stray dog staring at him out of the corner of his eye．

Feeling sorry for him，he fed the dog a meatball and thought nothing of it，but as the team stood up to continue their race the animal started to follow them—and he didn’t stop．

As the group of four navigated the final two stages of the 430-mile Adventure Racing World Championship，the dog befriended them and was eventually given the name Arthur．

Every tiring task the team face，Arthur would do the same．He swam alongside them while they kayaked down rivers，dragged himself up hills during hikes and pulled through knee—deep mud during treks．

Even when the team tried to get rid of their new member out of concerns for his safety—he refused to leave．This meant when he was tired they stopped for a break and when he got stuck in the mud they pulled him out．

After six days the team finished the race，and the dog had suffered．They therefore decided to take him to a vet(兽医)while still in South America to have him checked out．

During that time Lindord thought to himself that after their experience，they could not leave Arthur，so he decided to adopt him and take him back to Sweden．He applied to the Swedish Board of Agriculture and was made to wait to see if his application was successful．After a tense few days，the team arrived at the airport with Arthur and boarded the plane with him back home．

Lindord said：“I came to Ecuador to win the World Championship．Instead，I got a new friend．”

A study of more than five million books, both fiction and non-fiction, has found a marked decline in the use of emotional words over time. The researchers form the University of Bristol used Google Ngram Viewer, a facility for finding the frequency of terms in scanned books, to search for more than 600 particular words identified as representing anger, dislike, fear, joy, sadness and surprise.

They found that almost all of the categories showed a drop in these “mood words” over time. Only in the category of fear was there an increase in usage.

“It is a steady and continuous decrease,” said Dr Alberto Acerbi. He assumed that the result might be explained by a change in the position occupied by literature, in a crowded media landscape. “One thing could be that in parallel to books the 20th century saw the start of other media. Maybe these media — movies, radio, drama, had more emotional content than books.”

Although both joy and sadness followed the general downwards trend, the research, published in the journal PLOS One, found that they also exhibited another interesting behaviour：the ratio (比率) between the two varied greatly, apparently mirroring historical events.

During the Roaring Twenties the joy-to-sadness ratio reached a peak that would not occur again until before the recent financial crash. But the ratio plunged at the height of the Second World War. Nevertheless, the researchers held a reserved opinion about their claim that their result reflected wider social trends. In the paper, they even argue that the reverse could be true.

“It has been suggested, for example, that it was the suppression (压抑) of desire in ordinary Elizabethan English life that increased demand for writing ‘filled with romance and sex’… perhaps,” they conclude, “songs and books may not reflect the real population any more than catwalk models reflect the average body.”

1. The word "decline" (paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to_________.

A. increase B. rise C. decrease D. change

2.A study of more than five million books indicated a decrease in “mood words” over time except_______.

A. in the use of the words of historical events

B. in the category of fear

C. in the category of literature

D. in the category of joy

3. What’s the main idea of this passage?

A. A study of emotional words.

B. A study about vocabulary in literature.

C. Reasons for the use of emotional words decreases in literature.

D. A study on increase in the category of fear.
