题目内容

Imagine that you are sitting in a park and suddenly remember that you need to send an urgent email. You have your laptop computer with you and you connect it to a wireless access point and access the Internet. Then you send your email. This wouldn’t have been possible if there were no wireless Internet for laptops. Wireless Internet has come into our life in so many ways that we don’t even realize what a necessary part it has become of our day-to-day lives.
How do we connect to a wireless Internet service for laptop computers? There are two ways to do this. They are Wi-Fi connection and Bluetooth connection. Wireless networking is very easy. You just switch on the Wi-Fi button that has been provided in the laptop for Wi-Fi scanning. Once that is done, the computer will connect to the Internet.
An interesting fact about Wi-Fi networking is that you can create a network between similar wireless equipment. Consider a situation where you and your friend both have Wi-Fi laptops, and there is some data you want to exchange. Traditional networking architecture demands that you have a wireless router (路由器). But the beauty of Wi-Fi networking technology is that you can set up a network between you and your friend’s laptop, and share all the data you want.
Broadband (宽带) Internet connection is typically preferred by any user as it provides better speed for Internet surfing. Up until the invention of 3G mobile phones, Internet speed on mobile phones was very slow. 3G has the promise of changing the entire face of broadband technology. Just imagine browsing at speeds of more that 2MB per second. To give you a measure of the speed, 3G enables you to watch high quality live videos on the Internet.
It is amazing to see how technology changes and the rate at which it changes. There may come a time when you may be able to browse using mobile wireless Internet for laptops anywhere in the world.

Can you imagine not having your mobile phone? In our high-tech, in-a-hurry age, a cell-free life is a hard concept to swallow.

I wish I had the strength to toss away my technology . I have an office phone, a home phone, e-mail and if people want to contact me. they can. If I’m out, people can leave a message.

Mobile phones have become necessary tools in our busy life. For most people , they hold all contacts and many of us don't write up address books any more. The latest phones carry our music, pictures, movies and everything else. We feel lost without this device and when we do misplace it , we feel cut off from our fellow,

“Where have you been?” said a friend, who saw me a week after I lost my cell, “I tried calling you , but you disappeared. You disappeared off the face of the Earth。” See, when you don’t have a mobile phone, you don’t exist.

I’m not really going to toss my mobile phone away, in fact. We humans are such social animals and mobile phones serve us well. So in 2009, I’ve dicided not to serve my mobile phone. Like all machine, I can always turn it off.

I went into Harrods in London (a huge department store I am sure you have heard of) to buy some Minton china plates for a wedding anniversary which was to be a group gift from friends to other friends in Geneva.

Having only 30 minutes between meeting. I whizzed there in a taxi from the office and battled through the milling people on the 2nd day of the sales on the ground floor up to the 5th to the china department. There was a man standing there who was obviously a sales person who I rushed up to and asked if he had this particular china in stock and if it would take long to wrap, etc. He was amazing. He got the plates in seconds, wrapped them up and asked me if I wanted a store card, to which I replied no, because I lived in Switzerland, to which he replied asking if, as I lived abroad, would like a tax rebate form(退税表). After that he showed me what to do, produced a map of the store and told me where I should go for the formalities(程序). That was fabulos! I thanked him and said what wonderful service he had given me. I even asked if he gave this to everyone, to which he answered: “I’m just doing what is required at Harrods”. With that, a tall man in a grey suit approached me and offered his hand to shake mine saying, “Can I introduce myself? I am the Chief Executive of Harrods and what an interesting conversation I have just heard…” He had been wandering through the store (as you should do as a hands-on CEO) and had overheard me thanking this salesman, whose face, I can hardly

describe, was frozen in a mixture of delight awe and astonishment!

Can you imagine the salesman going home to his family and friends recounting what the CEO spoke to him after overhearing him being praised by a customer?

56. The writer went to Harrods to __________.

A. kill time    B. buy some gifts  C. go sightseeing   D. shop for her wedding

57. What does the underlined word “whiz” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?

A. drive     B. arrive     C. rush       D. leave

58 Which of the following sentences can best replace “I’m just doing what is required at Harrods” in th second paragraph?

A. “I’m an honest man.”           B. “I must obey the rules.”

C. “Harrods is strict with its employees.”    D. “Anybody will receive our good service.”

59. As soon as she bought what she wanted, the writer________.

A. went to a meeting.            B. flew back to Geneva

C. visited one of her friends D. attended a wedding ceremony

60. The writer wrote the above passage because she thought what she had experience was so ______.

A. pleasant      B. strange      C. exciting    D. amusing

For my grandmother's 70th birthday, my family and I visited South Korea. While there, I was attentive to Korean high schools and students.

I was surprised by how different Korea's public high schools are from America's. Korean high schools can be all-girls, all-boys or co-ed (男女同校的)unlike our standard co-ed high schools. There are three grades: “go 1(10th) ”, “go 2” (1l th) and “go 3” (12th). “Go”is the first syllable of the word “go-deung –hakkyo”, which, simply translated, is “high school”.

In America, unless you want to go to a private school, you don't have to take an entrance exam. In Korea, however, students must take a test to get in because of the many choices of schools.

Another difference I couldn't help but notice was the students' appearance. With very few exceptions, all wear uniforms. A name tag (标牌)with the student's name, grade and homeroom number must also be worn. Girl's skirts can't be above the upper part of the knee, and it is forbidden to dye (染)your hair or wear accessories (装饰品)except small earrings. There are strict regulations for appearance to achieve neatness, and it seems the only freedom students have is with their choices of hair style, socks and shoes.

The final difference was the setup of the classes. There may be 40 students in a classroom, but the number can be less or even more, depending on the population of the town or city. Although there are many students per classroom, they are very close, which I think is a result of not changing classrooms for different subjects. There are no levels in the subjects and the teachers are the ones who switch classrooms. They just have ten-minute breaks between subjects. In each class, students are ranked by their grades. This causes strict competition, and Korean students do a lot of studying. To help them, all schools have extra study classes after school. One other fact that helped me appreciate living in America is that Koreans have school on Saturdays. Although it's only a half day, I think I speak for most Americans when I say we could never imagine ourselves in school on a Saturday.

Korea's public high schools are clearly different from America's. I had imagined them to be just like our schools, but now I have a clear picture of how different they are.

59. How many main differences are mentioned between Korea's public high school and America’s?

A. 3.                               B. 4.                   C. 5.                   D. 6.

60. It seems that the writer  _______ .

A. is familiar with the education system of high schools in Korea

B. is fond of Korean students' appearance

C. prefers the high school life of America to the one of Korea

D. feels it common to have lessons on weekends

61. What does the underlined word "setup" in paragraph 5 probably mean?

A. Arrangement.        B. Size.               C. Number.         D. Outline.

62. According to the rules, the students of Korea can _______  .

A. go to different high schools without exams  B. wear any clothes except uniforms at school

C. attend different classes as they like               D. have different hair styles
