10．The very first capsule hotel to be opened in Shanghai has attracted many budget travelers with its prices，even though it is not fully operational yet．
The hotel consists of 68"capsules"，each 1.1-meters high，1.1-meters wide and 2.2-meters long．The basic rate is 28 Yuan （$4.22）per person，plus an additional 4 yuan an hour．The hotel also offers a package of 68 yuan for 10 hours and 88 yuan for 24 hours．
All of the capsules are imported from Japan where capsule hotels originated，and each is equipped with independent sockets，clocks，lights，TV and wireless Internet service．The hotel also has a public lavatory，shower room，smoking room and shared guest room．
"This is a huge bargain compared with other budget hotels in Shanghai，"said Ta Zan，the owner of the hotel．Ta used to stay at capsule hotels in Tokyo during his undergraduate years and worked at a capsule hotel while he was doing his MBA in Japan in 2005，so he knows how they work and how to make guests feel comfortable．
He based the hotel on capsule hotels in Japan but he has made some special changes based on Chinese guests'habits．"In Japan capsule hotels are usually equipped with bathtubs，but in China people are more willing to take a shower，so we have the shower room，"he said．He has also separated the capsules into three snoring （打鼾的） zones so that guests who often snore won't disturb others．Like most of capsule hotels in Japan，the one in Shanghai is for men only．
But the idea of staying in such a compact space is not appealing to everyone．"I feel the idea is like putting a person in a coffin （棺材），and the price is also not that appealing．A bed at a youth hotel in Shanghai costs about 60 Yuan per night，"said Wang Lei，a student from Beijing．

2．Coral reefs（珊 瑚 礁）are not just beautiful to look at，but also very useful．They shelter nearly 25% of ocean life and provide food for billions of people．However，like many other species，this amazing ecosystem（生态系统）is in danger of dying out!
There are two main reasons for the destruction（破坏）-the rising carbon dioxide levels caused by global warming as well as human influences like bottom operation．While not much can be done about the former，the loss caused by the latter can be reduced．
Bottom operation involves dropping nets to the ocean bed and then dragging them up when filled with fish．This action damaged the ocean floor，causing the coral branches to separate from the reefs．While that is very discouraging，the good news is that if these branches are found quickly，they can be saved．At present，that work is being performed by volunteer divers．But the method has only limited success because they cannot stay long underwater，nor reach depths of over 200meters where some of the deep-sea coral grows．
However，this is not the case for Coralbots-the robots that can constantly seek out broken branches．A team of‘coralbots'，each working to simple rules will piece together'damaged bits of coral，allowing them to regrow（重生）．They are programmed to be able to tell the differences between other things and the coral．The robots work together in groups，similar to bees．If one coralbot is damaged then the others will still be able to complete the task．
Dr Lea-Anne Henry said："The project of using coralbots offers us the possibility to restore（修复）the function of reefs．It is in the final stage of testing．Once ready，the researchers hope to build hundreds of them and use them effectively in the waters off Scotland and then hopefully in the oceans across the world．"
28．Which of the following is a cause of the danger that coral reefs are facingD．
A．The appearance of new creatures．
B．The seriously polluted sea water．
C．The activities of volunteer divers．
D．Human activities like bottom operation．
29．Compared with volunteer divers，coralbotsA．
A．can stay longer underwater               
B．must work as bees do
C．can distinguish what is coral              
D．can never be damaged
30．What does the underlined word"them"in the last paragraph refer toA．
A．Coralbots．
B．Broken branches．
C．Working bees．
D．Bits of coral．
31．We can infer from the passage thatB．
A．bottom operation has affected most underwater creatures
B．broken branches of coral can regrow if saved in time
C．hundreds of the coralbots have worked well in the oceans
D．with the coralbots all damaged coral reefs can be restored．
1．"Everybody loves a bargain．"One person's useless，ugly，or broken object can be another person's bargain．That is why so many Americans do not throw things away．They put them outside their houses．They put on a"For Sale"sign．And，as simple as that，they have a yard sale．
The sellers put a paid announcement in a local newspaper．It tells，when and where the yard sale will take place．These sales are very popular during weekends in spring，summer，and autumn．Early in the morning，all the things to be sold are carried out of the house．Then they sit all day in the sunlight-like tired guests at a party-waiting for someone to take them home．
Just about anything can be sold at a yard sale．Sometimes，there are more clothes than anything else．Cooking equipment is also popular．So are old toys，tools，books，tables and chairs．
Then there are objects called"white elephants"．A white elephant is something you think is extremely ugly or useless．It may be an electric light shaped like a fish．You feel a sharp pain whenever you look at it．To someone else，however，it might be a thing of beauty and joy．
Some people go to yard sales to find a special thing that they collect．It may be old toy trains，for example，or paintings of dogs．Experts say more Americans are collecting old things now than ever before．Most people who go to yard sales，however，are not looking for anything special．They might buy an object simply because it costs so little．They enjoy negotiating（谈判）over prices，even if they really do not need the object．Later，they may hold their own yard to sell all the things they have bought．

59．What kind of things will go to a yard sale？D
A．Things of beauty and joy．
B．Things of great，value．
C．Things out of season．
D．Things people no longer use．
60．A white elephant refers to somethingC．
A．that can cause a feeling of pain
B．that looks like a golden fish
C．disliked by the owners while appreciated by others
D．sold at the lowest prices in the old newspaper
61．Which of the following is NOT true about a yard sale？B
A．It is held outdoors．
B．It is usually held with a party．
C．It can last for a whole day．
D．It may not be held on a cold day．
62．We can infer from the last paragraph thatC．
A．things on a yard sale can cost people a lot
B．most people don't want to go to yard sales
C．people may find something of great value on a yard sale
D．yard sales only attract those who have a low income．
18．Theodore，the manager of the Paradise Hotel，told a middle-aged couple that that would have to leave the hotel after just one night．The couple，visiting from Texas，had booked a room for eight nights．
"They wanted a sterile （消毒了的） environment，"Theodore said，"They should have rented a room in a hospital，maybe an operating room．This hotel is clean，but it isn't that clean．"
Theodore said that，on the very first day，the couple brought all the sheets，pilloweases，and bedspreads down to the main hall and just dropped them next to the front desk．They stood there next to this pile of bedding while other guests looked，pointed，and murmured．The hotel got three cancellations within the hour from people who witnessed this strange event．
When Theodore asked the couple what the problem was，they said that their bedding was filthy and they wanted it replaced．The couple could not identify any specific"filth"on the bedding．The wife just said，"We're paying good money to stay here．How dare you doubt us？We know the filth is there．That's all the proof you need，"Theodore called room service，and the bedding was replaced immediately．
Early the next evening，however，the couple marched to the front desk again and demanded seven cans of sterilizer，"We need a can for each night．We have to spray the phone，the TV，all the door handles，the toilet handle，the shower stall，the faucet，the sink，and any hotel staff entering our room．"
Worried，Theodore politely suggested that a hotel more suitable for them was just around the corner．He then called ahead to reserve a"very clean"room，and gave them free transportation in the hotel Rolls-Royce．Also，he told the couple that they wouldn't be charged for the second day．
The couple were surprised but they really liked the idea of free room for a night and that expensive car service．

D．More guests would make the same requests．
58．What word could best describe the couple？C

Energy released from Wenchuan earthquake would be 30times of that from Ya'an quake，according to Zhang Xiaonan，an expert with China's Geophysical Union．Dai Junwu with Harbin-based seismological bureau expects the death toll at less than 1，000，and economic losses from the quake could reach up to 100billion yuan．

Rescue efforts were carried"timely and orderly"，said Chinese Premier Li Keqiang who flew to the quicken-stricken area on Sunday，the second day of the quake．He was quoted as saying that"the current priority is to save lives"．

15．Have you ever been to the world's smallest bookstore？
The World's Smallest Bookstore，whose official name is just these three words，sits quietly about 100 miles northeast of Toronto．
The bookstore is about 10 feet by 10 feet，so it is easy to imagine how tiny it really is．The bookstore is open 24 hours a day．Inside the bookstore are various books，especially literary books and classic authors'works．So if you are looking for something less popular，you may get a bit disappointed there．
Another special feature of this bookstore is that each book only costs three dollars．All the expenses are paid on the honor system，which means buyers should make a note of what they've bought and leave their money by themselves．So the tools of the trade in this bookstore are quite simple：pens，papers，light bulbs and a label-maker．
In order to catch passers-by's attention，the billboards（广告牌） of the bookstore are several times bigger than the store itself．With these large eye-catchers，many people are willing to stop by and have a visit．

2．In this age of cell phones，text messages and computer keyboards，one Scottish school has returned to basics．It's teaching youngsters the ignored art of writing with a fountain pen．There is no clicking of keyboards in most classrooms at the Mary Erskine and Stewart's Melville Junior School，although there is a full range of facilities （设施）for computer lessons and technology isn't being ignored．The private school's headmaster believes the old-fashioned pens have helped strengthen the academic （学术的） performance and self-esteem （自尊）of his 1，200pupils．
"The pens improve the quality of work because they force the children to take care，and better work improves self-esteem"，headmaster Bryan Lewis said．"Proper handwriting is as relevant today as it ever has been．"Students as young as 7have been instructed to give up their ball point pens and begin to deal with its more artful  predecessor．By the time they reach grade five，at age 9，they are expected to write mainly with fountain pens．Lewis said the school's 7-and 8-year-olds use fountain pens for 80percent to 90percent of their work，returning to pencils for such subjects as math．"I don't see fountain pens as old-fashioned or out of date．Modern fountain pens are beautiful to use？it's not like in the old days of broken metal points and dirtying writing paper，"Lewis said．"We have a particular writing style and we have developed it very carefully and found a way that allows left-and right-handed people to write without dirtying paper．"
Some people in wealthy nations argue that handwriting is becoming less important because of the growing use of cell phone text messaging and typing on computers，but the school disagrees．"We talk of the paperless office and the paperless world，but this is not true，"Lewis said．"You still need to have proper handwriting skills．"
