I was from Detroit in the United States. During his senior year in high school I win a scholarship to study singing in London. I went there in summer, and I stayed with someone’s home. People there were very sweetly, and it was a really fun summer. I got the inside view of that it’s like to live there. I loved it but one thing that surprising me was that people had to go to such many different stores to do their shopping. There was also a lot of differences in language. They said things like “ring you up” instead of “give you a call.” It took me a little while figure out these differences. So it was fun.

I'm a blind teenager girl, but I am ashamed of it if it is known. I refuse to use a white stick and hate asking for help, and I couldn't bear people to look at me and think I am not like them. I must be a terrible danger on the roads. Coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes. Apart from that, there are all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.

One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something. "I'm awfully sorry," I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost. This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn't stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.

Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.

But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; it seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next stop.

1.The girl is unwilling to use a stick or ask for help because .

A. she thinks she might be cheated

B. asking for help will cost her money

C. she is normal and independent

D. she can't stand being found different from others

2. According to the passage, after the girl got off the bus that evening, she .

A. began to run away

B. knocked down a person as usual

C. hit a lamppost by accident

D. made several apologies to an old man

3. What was the problem with guessing at the sound to stop a bus?

A. All cars have exactly the same sound.

B. No bus would stop to pick up a blind girl.

C. Some lorries may have the same sound as that of the bus.

D. It took long for the girl to recognize the sound of a bus.

4.At last the girl decided to walk to the next stop, hoping

A. to find people there

B. to hear more buses there

C. to find the bus by herself there

D. to hear his parents waiting for her

Electricity bills can be highly expensive and the power we consume comes at an even greater cost to the environment when you consider that over 85% of the electricity produced in the United States comes from fuels. Whether you’re concerned about cleaning up the environment or you simply want to reduce your electricity bill，residential wind power generators（发电机）could be a solution.

Producing wind power at home will not work for everyone. If you live in a over-populated residential area，there may be certain laws and zoning requirements that prohibit the use of windmills（风车）.If you live on 1 acre of land or more,you probably won’t have any issues but you should investigate carefully to make sure that wind power generators are both legal and practical where you live. Even if there are no laws or regulations prohibiting wind power generators you still need to be in a location that gets enough wind on a regular basis.

Some producers of wind generators recommend that you live in an area with wind speeds that average at least 10 mph. Newer models have been developed recently that can operate with wind speeds as low as 4 mph but maximum efficiency is achieved at higher wind speeds. Before you fix a wind powered system,you will have to determine your power requirements. Will you be using it to charge a small battery for a boat or vehicle or will you need enough power to run your entire household and be completely off the grid（电网）？Once you know what your power requirements are，you can start shopping around for a system that can meet those needs.

Wind power generators are a great solution for a lot of people.They’re an ideal solution for remote locations where it would be impractical or simply too expensive to tap into the grid.They are quiet and totally clean，producing no pollution. They require no fuel and very little maintenance. Residential wind power offers a lot of benefits but it’s not for everyone. You’ll have to have some money up front to pay for the system and equipment;however,you could save quite a bit of money if you’re able to do much of the work yourself. You’ll also need to live in an area that gets enough wind to make the equipment worthwhile. You’ll need to do your homework before you make a purchase,but wind power generators could be a great solution for producing clean, low-cost energy.

1.What is the main idea of the first paragraph？

A. Electricity bills can be highly expensive.

B. Most of the electricity in the US comes from fuels.

C. Generating electricity does harm to the environment.

D. Residential wind power generators are useful and necessary.

D. wind power generators are an ideal solution for everyone.

3. What attitude might the writer hold towards residential wind power generators？

A. Negative B. Supportive

C. Skeptical D. Cautious

When we heard that our friend astronaut Gregory Chamitorff was going to be on board the last flight of the space shuttle Endeavour, we asked him if he would answer some questions from space. He said yes!

Here are our questions and Greg’s answers from space.

What’s the best thing about being in space?

Zero-gravity（失重） is by far the best thing about being in space. It does not really mean that there is no gravity. It means that we are moving around Earth in the same way the space station is moving around Earth. So we are floating inside the space station.

We travel around Earth once every 90 minutes. That’s 16 sunrises and sunsets every day. Really fast!

Inside the station, we can fly around like superman. It’s an amazing feeling, and I hope everyone gets a chance to fly in space someday to experience the wonder of zero-gravity.

What do you do for fun in the space shuttle?

There are so many things you can do in zero-gravity that are fun. Flying around is fun. Eating food that floats is fun.

I like to play like Superman and see how far I can fly without touching any walls. Another fun thing is to play with water. Most of all, the most exciting thing to do is to look out the window at our beautiful planet Earth below. You never get tired of seeing it like that, the way it really is and it can never be seen that way while standing on its surface.

What’s the coolest thing about being on a spacewalk?

Wow! Doing a spacewalk is cool. There is nothing more wonderful than floating in space in your own space suit. It’s amazing, and when you are doing a spacewalk, you are “out there” just floating in empty space, like the earth, like the moon, like the sun, like the space station. It’s not science fiction. It’s real.

1. Why does Greg think doing a spacewalk is the coolest thing?

A. He can wear his own space suit then.

B. He can see the moon when doing that.

C. He can see the earth by doing so.

D. He thinks it’s great flying in empty space.

2.Which of the following best shows how Greg feels?

A. Frightened B. Excited C. Sad D. Surprised

3.What can we know from the text?

A. Greg thinks doing a spacewalk is science fiction.

B. Greg floats inside the space station without gravity.

C. Everyone has the chance to experience the wonder of zero-gravity.

D. In the space shuttle, Greg can see the shape of the whole earth clearly.

Owning a smartphone may not be as smart as you think. It may let you surf the Internet, listen to music and snap photos wherever you are…but it also turns you into a workaholic, it seems.

A study suggests that, by giving you access to emails at all times, the all-singing, all-dancing mobile phone adds as much as two hours to your working day. Researchers found that Britons work an additional 460 hours a year on average as they are able to respond to emails on their mobiles.

The study by technology retailer Pixmania reveals the average UK working day is between 9 and 10 hours, but a further two hours is spent responding to or sending work emails, or making work calls. More than 90 percent of office workers have email-enabled phones, with a third accessing them more than 20 times a day. Almost one in ten admits spending up to three hours outside their normal working day checking work emails. Some workers confess(承认) they are on call almost 24 hours a day, with nine out of ten saying they make work emails and calls outside their normal working hours. The average time for first checking emails is between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m., with more than a third checking their first emails in this period, and a quarter checking them between 11 p.m. and midnight.

Ghadi Hobeika, marketing director of Pixmania, said, “The ability to access literally millions of apps, keep in contact via social networks and take photos and video as well as text and call has made smartphones invaluable for many people. However, there are drawbacks. Many companies expect their employees to be on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and smartphones mean that people literally cannot get away from work. The more constantly in contact we become , the more is expected of us in a work capacity(容量).”

1.What can we conclude from the text?

A. All that glitters is not gold.

B. It never rains but pours.

C. Every coins has two sides.

D. It’s no good crying over spilt milk.

2. The underlined word “accessing” in the third paragraph can be replaced by “________”.

A. calling B. reaching C. getting D. using

3.Which of the following is true according to the text?

A. The average UK working time is between nine and twelve hours.

B. Nine- tenths spent over three hours checking work emails.

C. One-fourth check their first mail between 11 p.m. and midnight.

D. The average time for first checking emails is between 6 a.m. and 8 .am ..

4.What’s the main idea of the text?

A. Workaholics like smartphones.

B. Smartphones bring about extra work.

C. Smartphones make our life easier.

D. Employers don’t like smartphones.
