Many cities have subways and underground public transportation to take locals and tourists alike rapidly around the city.However, there’s something different about riding a London subway.It may not look different, but the historical value of one of England’s most popular forms of transportation is enough to make riding the subway a must when visiting London.With a little under 100 different stations, the subway can take you almost anywhere you need to go.

Riding a London subway, a person from other countries will notice one major difference: in London, people do not look at each other.In fact, eye contact is avoided at all times.That’s not rudeness―people are just too busy to bother looking.

Busy doing what, you ask? Well, they’re certainly not using the time for a moment of quiet thinking.Nor are they reading a book.New technology has replaced quiet habits.Today the only acceptable form of book on the London underground is an e-book.

Apple must earn a fortune from London commuters(使用月票上下班者).Since the launch of the iPhone in 2007, over 40,000―yes, that’s 40,000 “apps” have been designed.

Commuters love them because they are the perfect time-fillers.One “app”, called iShoot, is a game that features tanks.Another one, Tube Exits, tells passengers where to sit on the train to be closest to the exit of their destination.iSteam clouds the iPhone screen when you breathe into the microphone.You can then write in the “steam” on your phone screen.

For those without an iPhone, another Apple product, the iPod, may be the distraction(消遣)of choice.It’s not just teenagers who “plug in” to their music-iPods are a popular way to pass the time for all ages.

And if games, e-books and music aren’t enough to keep you occupied, then perhaps you would prefer a film? The development of palm DVD technology means many commuters watch their favorite TV shows or films on the way to work.With all these distractions, it’s amazing that people still remember to get off the train.

1.People in London do not make eye contact on the subway because ______.

A.they are going to work and have no time to communicate with each other

B.they love reading books and do not want to be disturbed

C.they feel sleepy because of getting up early

D.they are busy playing games, reading e-books, listening to music or watching films

2.The underlined word “apps” in the fourth paragraph means ______.

A.computers B.programs downloaded for the iPhone

C.computer companies D.fortune from London commuters

3.Those who want to save time to reach where they go can download ______ to their iPhones.

A.iShoot B.Tube Exits C.iSteam D.iPod

4.The main idea of the passage is that ______.

A.London commuters are unfriendly to strangers

B.Apple has earned a lot of money from selling 40,000 apps

C.technology is changing how London commuters spend their traveling time

D.riding a London subway is a must when visiting London

5.The aim to write the passage is to ______.

A. praiseB. doubt C. blameD. state

 

How far would you be willing to go to satisfy your need to know? Far enough to find out your possibility of dying from a terrible disease? These days that’s more than an academic question,as Tracy Smith reports in our Cover Story.

There are now more than a thousand genetic(基因的)tests,for everything from baldness to breast cancer,and the list is growing.Question is do you really want to know what might eventually kill you? For instance,Nobel Prize-winning scientist James Watson,one of the first people to map their entire genetic makeup, is said to have asked not to be told if he were at a higher risk for Alzheimer’(老年痴呆症).

“If I tell you that you have an increased risk of getting a terrible disease,that could weigh on your mind and make you anxious,through which you see the rest of your 1ife as you wait for that disease to hit you.It could really mess you up.”Said Dr.Robert Green,a Harvard geneticist.

“Every ache and pain,”Smith suggested,could be understood as“the beginning of the e nd.”“That’s right.If you ever worried you were at risk for Alzheimer's disease,then every time you can’t find your car in the parking lot,you think the disease has started.”

Dr.Green has been thinking about this issue for years.He led a study of people who wanted to know if they were at a higher genetic risk for Alzheimer’s.It was thought that people who got bad news would,for lack of a better medical term,freak out.But Green and his team found that there was “no significant difference”between how people handled good news and possibly the worst news of their lives.In fact,most people think they can handle it.People who ask for the information usually can handle the information,good or bad,said Green.

A.ask some questions B.introduce the topic

2.Which of the following is true of James Watson?

A.He is strongly in favor of the present genetic tests.

3.According to Paragraphs 3 and 4,if a person is at a higher genetic risk,it is ____________.

A.advisable not to let him know

B.impossible to hide his disease

C.better to inform him immediately

D.necessary to remove his anxiety

4.The underlined part“freak out”in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to _____________.

A.break down B.drop out

C.leave off D.turn away

5.The study led by Dr.Green indicates that people ________________.

A.prefer to hear good news

B.tend to find out the truth

Have you ever not wanted to do something so badly? Well,that’s how I about joining Madcaps,a mothers and daughters’club assisting charity. ,my feeling changed finally. Now I believe if you adopt an attitude.you might just enjoying it.

Six months ago,my mom told me the club asked us to work as at Saint Vincent de Paul Homeless shelter.That meant I had to in the dirty homeless shelter for at least 20 hours.

The first lime we went there,a lady led us to the kitchen where we my five fellow Madcaps classmates- they also wore the same mark .Since I′m usually awkward, I had never talked with any of them .Worse still,my mom was asked to help outside the kitchen,leaving me totally to serve food with them. Soon large numbers of homeless families in like rushing river.A little girl,around 5 years old,walked up to me I her a sandwich. She took it and joined her family quickly.As she walked away, I she was wearing a coat.Clearly too big for her, hanging on her thin body, and couldn’t help thinking how much I had with her.It suddenly struck me that how I am.

After that moment I had a of heart Now I love Madcaps and don’t miss one meeting I have awkwardness when communicating and have many friends. And this year I am sure I will do more than the 20 hours of charity.

So that is how I have made a by doing one thing I do not want to do .If you have an open about things you can accomplish more and become a well-rounded(全面的)person.

Jenny was a pretty five-year-old girl. One day when she and her mother were checking out at the grocery store, Jenny saw a plastic pearl (珍珠) necklace priced at $2.50. Her mother bought the necklace for her on condition that she had to do some homework to pay it off. Jenny agreed. She worked very hard every day, and soon Jenny paid off the necklace. Jenny loved it so much that she wore it everywhere except when she was in the shower. Her mother had told her it would turn her neck green!

Jenny had a very loving daddy. When Jenny went to bed, he would read Jenny her favorite story.

One night when he finished the story, he said, “Jenny, could you give me your necklace?”

“Oh! Daddy, not my necklace!” Jenny said. “But you can have Rosy, my favorite doll. Remember her? You gave her to me last year for my birthday. Okay? ”

“Oh no, darling, that’s okay.” Her father brushed her cheek with a kiss. “Good night, little one.

A week later, her father once again asked Jenny for the necklace after her favorite story. “Oh, Daddy, not my necklace! But you can have Ribbons, my toy horse. Do you remember her? She’s my favorite.”

“No, that’s okay,” her father said and brushed her cheek again with a kiss. “God bless you, little one. Sweet dreams. ”

Several days later, when Jenny’s father came in to read her a story, Jenny was sitting on her bed and her lip was trembling. “Here, Daddy,” she said, holding out her hand. She opened it and her beloved pearl necklace was inside. She let it slip into her father’s hand.

With one hand her father held the plastic pearl necklace and with the other he pulled out of his pocket a blue box. Inside the box was a real, beautiful pearl necklace. He had had it all along. He was waiting for Jenny to give up the cheap necklace so he could give her a real one.
