16.A family in Guelph,Ontario is spending a year living"in 1982".They're doing it so their kids can see what life was like before technology like iPads,computers and even coffee machines was part of everyday life.
They have stopped using all technology from their home and are relying on the things people would have used back in the 80s.There is a box at the front door where people can put their cell phones in,while they're visiting the family.
Blair McMillan and his wife Morgan want their kids-Trey,5,and Denton,2-to have a year without technology.
Instead of reading e-readers,they are reading books.Instead of using a GPS,they used paper maps.The home the family is living in was built in the 1980s.Even the way they dress and style their hair is from the 80s.
The whole idea started when young Trey was called to come outside.He didn't because he was busy playing on the ipad.That's why his dad thought of the idea of living"in 1982"for a year.The family plans to live like"it's 1982"until April next year.To them,one of the hardest things was giving up their cell phone.

C.They will put their cell phone outside before entering the room.

13.A night out in Tokyo is much the same as a night out in Milan these days,according to a survey about socialising,conducted amongst 16 to 34-year-olds around the world.Wherever you live,a typical night out is spent eating burgers,seeing American films or listening to English-language music in clubs and bars.Individual differences do survive but American culture is everywhere.
Differences in the social behavior of the two sexes are also disappearing.Most people surveyed felt that it was‘perfectly normal'for groups of young women to go out alone,that it was‘equally acceptable'for young women to smoke and drink,and that a couple should split the bill when they go out together.For most young people these were the biggest differences between their own generation and their parents'.
Interestingly,however,most young people interviewed said that parents are still stricter with daughters than sons about where they go and who they go with.Overall,only 10 per cent thought that parents treat their sons and daughters equally,and almost no one thought parents were stricter with their sons!
Important national differences appear,however,when it comes to time-keeping.In the Far East and Eastern Europe a night out starts---and finishes---much earlier:there seven o'clock was the average time for meeting up with friends.For many Southern European and South Americans,on the other hand,an evening out doesn't even start until ten or eleven o'clock,by which time many of their South Korean or Japanese counterparts are safely home in bed!
Parents'rules reflect this.Most Japanese parents expect their teenagers home by ten o'clock or even earlier,whereas in Europe it is more likely to be eleven or twelve o'clock.The most surprising findings came from Argentina,however,where it is apparently quite normal for 15 and 16-year-olds to stay out all night.But then perhaps this is because their parents have less to worry about---80 percent of Argentine youngsters claimed that they rarely or never drink alcohol!

66.Night out in Tokyo is similar to it in Milan becauseC.
A.English-language activities are highly welcomed
B.they are experiencing the different globalized-culture
C.American culture is very popular all around the world
D.all the young people have the same habits and hobbies
67.One of the biggest differences between young people and their parents lies inB
A.the music style and stars they loved
B.their attitude towards paying money for dinner
C.the decreasing number of young women smoking
D.the time they meet up with people and have evening out
68.In the last paragraph,"this"refers toC.
A.evening out      B.drinking alcohol     C.time-keeping D.staying up late
69.What is the passage mainly talking about?B
A.The same night-out life in all the modern cities.
B.The similarities and differences in social behaviors.
C.Comparing night life between the east and the west.
D.Parents'different rules between their sons and daughters.
20.Imagine you're at a party full of strangers.You're nervous.Who are these people?How do you start a conversation?Fortunately,you've got a thing that sends out energy at tiny chips in everyone's name tag.The chips send back names,jobs,hobbies,and the time available for meeting-whatever.Making new friends becomes simple.
This hasn't quite happened in real life.But the world is already experiencing a revolution using RFID technology.
An RFID tag with a tiny chip can be fixed in a product,under your pet's skin,even under your own skin.Passive RFID tags have no energy source-batteries because they do not need it.The energy comes from the reader,a scanning device,that sends out energy (for example,radio waves) that starts up the tag immediately.
Such a tag carries information specific to that object,and the data can be updated.Already,RFID technology is used for recognizing each car or truck on the road and it might appear in your passport.Doctors can put a tiny chip under the skin that will help locate and obtain a patient's medical records.At a nightclub in Paris or in New York the same chip gets you into the VIP (very important person) section and pays for the bill with the wave of an arm.
Take a step back:10or 12years ago,you would have heard about the coming age of computing.One example always seemed to surface:Your refrigerator would know when you needed to buy more milk.The concept was that computer chips could be put everywhere and send information in a smart network that would make ordinary life simpler.
RFID tags are a small part of this phenomenon."The world is going to be a loosely coupled set of individual small devices,connected wirelessly,"predicts Dr.J.Reich.Human right supporters are nervous about the possibilities of such technology.It goes too far tracking school kids through RFID tags,they say.We imagine a world in which a beer company could find out not only when you bought a beer but also when you drank it.And how many beers.Accompanied by how many biscuits.
When Marconi invented radio,he thought it would be used for ship-to-shore communication,not for pop music.Who knows how RFID and related technologies will be used in the future.Here's a wild guess:Not for buying milk.

74.The article is intended toD.
A.warn people of the possible risks in adopting RFID technology
B.explain the benefits brought about by RFID technology
C.convince people of the uses of RFID technology
D.predict the applications of RFID technology
75.We know from the passage that with the help of RFID tags,peopleA.
A.will have no trouble getting data about others
B.will have more energy for conversation
C.will have more time to make friends
D.won't feel shy at parties any longer
76.Why are some people worried about RFID technology?C.
A.Because children will be tracked by strangers.
B.Because market competition will become more fierce.
C.Because their private lives will be greatly affected.
D.Because customers will be forced to buy more products.
77.The last paragraph implies that RFID technologyB.
A.will not be used for such matters as buying milk
B.will be widely used,including for buying milk
C.will be limited to communication uses
D.will probably be used for pop music.
10.Prejudice is a preconceived opinion that is not based on fact or reason.Examples of prejudice in schools include believing that some students are particular type of people simply because of the way they dress or act,or believing that a certain group is good at sports simply because many peop1e in that group are goad at sports.Another example is believing that a boy is good at science because many boys are good at science.
    I would like to cite more examples from the English literature.The best example of"prejudice"can be found in Jane Austen's novels.Her novels in the history of English literature are popularly known as"novels of manners".Thus you can clearly understand that where manners and social behavior are concerned,"prejudice"is inevitable!Austen's famous novel Pride and Prejudice is the best example in this respect.When you read the novel,the very first line that would strike you is"it is a truth universally acknowledged,that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife."It is an example of 18th century English middle class prejudice that eventually looked upon women just as an object that would serve as the basic sign for a man to establish his manliness and his superior and well acquired financial status.This novel is chiefly about class division,social norms and the consequent human behavior.The characters Elizabeth and Darcy,in their journey of 1ife through the course of the novel,highlight their personal prejudices towards one another that arise from their different social strata(阶层).Darcy,a rich man,at first,fails to admire the beauty and intelligence of Elizabeth because of her low social status:"she is tolerable; but not handsome enough to tempt me;"and Elizabeth,proud of her"first impressions",failed to understand the well natured man under the proud and unfriendly Darcy.
33.What is"prejudice"defined in this passage?C
 A.Prejudice is a reasonable idea that is based on one's own experience.
 B.Prejudice is a preference for one group of people or things over another.
 C.Prejudice is a preconceived opinion before becoming aware of fact or reason.
 D.Prejudice is an unreasonable dislike of a particular group of people or things.
34.The underlined word"inevitable"in the second paragraph probably_meansA.
A.unavoidable   B.reasonable   C.unbelievable   D.valuable
35.From the novel Pride and Prejudice,we can't learn thatB.
A.where manners and social behavior are concerned"prejudice"is inevitable
B."prejudice"was defined and compared with"pride"in 18th century
C.it's about class division,social norms and the consequent human behavior
D.personal prejudices towards one another arise from different social strata.
14.San Francisco's Chinatown is the biggest and oldest in the country.It's the third most visited tourist destination in the city.It's also the city's most densely populated neighbor-hood.So why are.businesses in Chinatown struggling?
   In this week's paper,I outline some of the reasons for why Chinatown's crowded streets and busy shops might be declining.Underneath the surface,Chinatown is falling.And the city,local organizations and businesses are trying to figure out what they can do to turn things around.
While numbers of people visit Chinatown,they don't stay long and they don't spend a lot of money.And beyond annual festivals,1ike Chinese New Years,this month's Moon Festival and last month's Sunday Streets-which drew about 15,000 t0 20.000 people-the neighborhood has a hard time attracting locals.
Can you remember the last.time you went to Chinatown?If you can't,You're not alone.Locals told me that Chinatown doesn't have much to offer them-that the stores are all the same.There are some good eating joints,people said,but they don't know how to find them.Some people even told me that they sometimes go to extreme measures to avoid the neighborhood altogether.But when asked if the-v would like to see Chinatown gone,the answer was always a strong no.
Locals are hopeful that things will get better and traffic will increase when the Central Subway is complete.But chat's not for another five years.at least.And if'new shops or restaurants don't make their way into Chinatown.the same problem of attracting locals will exist.
   Not that Chinatown's going to die.The dragon still has some fire in its belly.And many people are rooting for positive change.The question is,how does Chinatown change without losing the very importance of what makes it unique?
29.Which can we know about Chinatown according to the passage?C

32.It can be inferred from the passageA
A.the Central Subway is under construction
B.Chinatown has to make way for subway
