13．For age the word has been going around that the dog is the man's best friend．I agree．A dog can be hardly as a night watchman around the house，as a pointer on a hunting trip，as a guardian and playmate for the children．But I think that having a dog for a pet is so expensive and annoying that I can do without such a friend．
Providing for the dog's needs is so expensive that the animals should be an income tax deduction（扣除）．There's the medical bill for shots to keep the animal healthy．Unless it's kept in the house 24hours a day，a female must be given"preventive maintenance"a ten-to twenty-dollar investment．Otherwise，before you know it，you'll have more"income tax deductions"in your family．And dogs have to eat．Don't think you can buy a case of Ken-L-Ration and be done with it．A dog can be as particular about food as a French expert．To feed even a Chihuahua，a very small Mexican dog，you'll spend three to five dollars a week．If you own a big，you need a large dog-house．They're expensive．A carpenter will build a luxurious model for about seventy-five dollars．For about thirty dollars'worth of materials，a weekend's work，and a smashed thumb，you can build a simple one yourself．And these are only the major costs．
A dog is so annoying that no one in his right mind would want to own one．Consider the dog owner blessed with a dog that fetches-slippers，rubber toys，newspapers．Have you eased your bare feet into slippers bitten by dogs，seen a living room destroyed by a toy boxer，tried to read a newspaper chewed to wet pieces by an obedient Boston bull？And dogs make noise．Some huge dogs bark all night．But you aren't the only one to endure sleepless nights； your neighbors let you know they didn't sleep either．Policemen are frequent visitors to dog owners'homes．They inquire about holes reported dug in neighbors'flower beds，prize cats injured and bleeding，and pet chickens and ducks sent to their reward．Suspect：your dog!You deny everything，of course．Rex，you assure the officers，was asleep by the door．But you secretly suspect him，because you don't really know where Pex was all week．And you remember wondering why feathers were floating in his water bowl yesterday．Dogs are annoying．Neither a fire-breathing mother-in-law nor a talkative wife prove more annoying to man than a dog．
Dog lovers will，of course，claim my argument one-sides，even exaggerated．They might consider me as cruel as the Russians，who possibly attempting to solve their own canine crisis--shot Fido into orbit．But the fact remains，if our best friends caused us the expense and annoyance our dog does，we'd soon encouraged them to become astronauts．

74．Which statement is NOT true about the dog as man's best friend？A
A．A dog will help to watch people．
B．A dog will guard your house at night．
C．A dog will play with your children．
D．A dog will serve as a guide for the hunters．

C．prevent a female dog from becoming pregnant
D．provide for the food that dogs eat

A．the police station was destroyed by dogs
B．neighbor's domestics pets were killed or injured．'
C．they want to ask about neighbor's flowers
D．they can't stand sleepless nights any more
77．From the last two paragraphs，we can learn thatD．
A．a dog is not as annoying as a fire-breathing mother-in-law
B．it is more difficult for man to cope with a talkative wife than with a dog
C．dog lovers prove to be as cruel as the Russians in the argument
D．a dog is a troublemaker that causes its owner the most annoyance．

20．We have entered a new age of embedded（嵌入式的），intuitive（直觉的） computing in which our homes，cars，stores，farms，and factories have the ability to think，sense，understand，and respond to our needs．It's not science fiction，but the dawn of a new age．
Most people might not realize it yet，but we are already feeling the impact of what's known as the third wave of computing．In small but significant ways it is helping us live healthier and more secure lives．If you drive a 2014Mercedes Benz，for example，an"intelligent"system tries to keep you from hitting a pedestrian．A farmer in Nigeria relies on weather sensors that communicate with his mobile device．Forgot your medicine？A new pill bottle from AdhereTech reminds you through text or automatic phone messages that it's time to take a pill．
Technology is being integrated（融入） into our natural behaviors，with real-time data connecting our physical and digital worlds．With this dramatic shift in our relationship to technology，companies can adapt their products and services．
To understand how revolutionary the third wave is，we ought to consider how far we have come．The first wave began when companies started to manage their operations through mainframe computer systems over 50years ago．Then computing got"personal"in the 1980s and the 1990s with the introduction of the PC （personal computer）．For the most part，computing remained immobile and lacked contextual awareness．
In computing's second wave，mobile computing and the smartphone took center stage．Billions of people，some of whom might not have had access to clean water，electricity，or even housing，were connected．Developers created applications and provided consumers with access to just about everything through their phone at the cost of a monthly data plan．
As the third wave keeps developing，designers must meet the demands of consumers who want to experiment with new technology．
Historically，designers have focused their attention on a product's form and function．While that still matters，of course，the definition of a meaningful user experience has expanded significantly and will continue to do so．Instead of creating a single product，designers will need to imagine a series of connected products and services that have awareness of each other and their surroundings．

74．Why are three examples given in Paragraph 2？D．
A．To tell us that human beings are smarter and smarter．
B．To illustrate the importance and necessity of technology．
C．To prove that we are living healthier and more secure lives．
D．To show the impact of the third wave of computing on our life．
75．In the first wave of computingD．
A．companies'operations were reliable on computer systems
B．computing had awareness of people's needs in the context
C．people could have access to computing almost everywhere
D．it was possible for people to experience computing at home
76．Which of the following is a situation in the third wave of computing？C．
A．There's no need to create a single product．
B．The definition of the user experience is more significant．
C．Products and services are not independent of each other．
D．The products'form and functions are no longer important．
77．What can we conclude from the passage about the new age we are facing？B．
A．There's a shift of attention from people's physical worlds to their digital worlds．
B．There's closer relationship between technology and people's natural behaviours．
C．People live more happily with the convenience brought by advanced technology．
D．People become lazier with the products that can think and respond to their needs．

17．Sixteen-year-old Karlos Dearman's future is looking much brighter than he might previously have imagined．"I love bikes，but I've never thought I'd end up with working with them，"he says．"This program has changed my life．"
Karlos is learning to refurbish （翻新） old bicycles in the workshop （车间） of ReCycle Bikes，an independent non-profit bike project in Sheffield．It provides training chances for young people aged 14 to 16 with the help of the local government，particularly those struggling in mainstream education or rejected from school．
"It's about engaging young people with education and youth training by teaching them work and life skills，"explains Des Pearce，workshop training manager．"These young people have so much potential，but often don't realize it．"
Founded in 2001，ReCycle Bikes repairs bicycles donated by the public，which are sold for￡20 after refurbished．Abandoned bikes supplied by the government make sure a steady flow of bikes，but a recently formed partnership with Sheffield University should improve the further development．
"The student population presents a large and ready market，"says Pearce．"So we approached the university last year and offered to host bike sales on the campus （校园）．They thought it was a great idea，and agreed to provide us with more support．This means we can train young people to repair extra 500 bikes over three years．"
Having set up ReCycle Bikes on his own，Pearce now has the staff and resources to track the profession development of those who have passed through his workshop．"But we are planning exit interviews with the young people to make sure what they plan to do，and these will allow us to check on their progress，"says Pearce．
That most of the teenagers enjoy the work is，according to Pearce，easily explained．"Most kids have ridden a bike and know how to oil a chain or mend a flat tyre．As low-cost transport，cycling gives the young and old a sense of freedom and independence，and the effect on their well-being is big．Add to that a growing concern for the environment，and it's no surprise that bike sales are on the increase．"
