4．The unthinkable keeps happening．The 18th hot car death of the year was recorded Thursday---on the same day a national public service campaign started．It is meant to warn parents about the dangers of leaving kids in overheated cars．In the latest unfortunate accident，a 10-month-old girl died in Wichita，Kan，after being left by her parents in a car that was parked outside her house．The baby was forgotten，according to the police．
One New Mexico teenager's creation called"Hot Seat"might someday prevent such deaths．Alyssa Chavez，a 17-year-old from Albuquerque，said she designed a warning system that might stop people from accidentally leaving their young children in the car after they get out of it．
Chavez，whose mother owns a day-care center，said she had heard about the deaths of three children in hot cars in summer．"I felt that would be a good project for my eighth-grade science fair project---to find something to prevent those accidents from happening，"said Chavez．
She bought a door alarm （警报器） and began to design her new warning system．Finally，she won the science fair．And for the last three years，she's been improving the design and creating a busness plan．
The invention works in a simple but effective way．A parent places a sensor pad （感应垫） under the cover of a baby car seat．The pad has a sensor that communicates with a key fob （饰物） carried by the parent to find out how far the parent is from the car．If the parent is more than 40feet away from the car，the pad will check to see if it feels the child in the seat．If it doesn't，the alarms will not sound．If it does，then three alarms will go off---the key fob，the parent's phone and the car alarm itself．Chavez is now trying to raise money to build a model Hot Seat．
28．What can we say about the 10-month-old girl's parents？A
A．They were too careless．
B．They treated her unkindly．
C．They had poor driving skills．
D．They were against the campaign．
29．Chavez's warning systemB．
A．was suggested by her mother
B．was designed in her eighth grade
C．works together with a door alarm
D．has helped her earn a lot of money
30．If a baby is sitting in the car，the alarms will go off whenD．
A．the car key is taken out
B．its parent gets out of the car
C．the pad feels it on the car seat
D．its parent is over 40feet away
31．What is the text mainly about？D

B．A national public service campaign．
C．An unfortunate accident in Wichita．
D．A successful invention by a teenager．

11．I would like to suggest that for sixty minutes each evening，right after the early evening news，all television broadcasting be banned by law．
Let us take a serious look at what the results might be if such a suggestion were accepted．Families might use the time for a real family hour．They might sit around together after dinner and actually talk to one another．It is well known that many of our problems-everything，in fact，from the generation gap（代沟） to the high divorce rate to some forms of mental illnesses-are caused at least in part by the failure to communicate．We do not tell each other what is disturbing us．The result is emotional difficulty of one kind or another．By using the quiet family hour to discuss our problems，we might get to know each other better，and to like each other better．
On evenings when such talk is unnecessary，families could rediscover more active entertainments．Freed from TV，forced to find their own activities，they might take a ride together to watch the sunset．Or they might take a walk together and see the neighborhood with fresh，new eyes．
With free time and no TV，children and adults might rediscover reading．There is more entertainment in a good book than in a month of typical TV programming．Educators report that the generation growing up with television can hardly write an English sentence，even at the college level．Writing is often learned from reading．A more cultured new generation could be a product of the quiet hour．
At first glance，the idea of an hour without TV seems radical （激进的）．What will parents do without the electronic baby-sitter？How will we spend the time？But it's not radical at all．It has been only twenty-five years since television came to control our free time．Those of us thirty-five and older can remember childhoods without television，spent partly with radio-which at least involved the listener's imagination-but also with reading，learning，talking，playing games and inventing new activities．It wasn't that difficult，honest．The truth is that we had a ball．
28．The author's suggestion can helpA．
A．people solve emotional problems
B．draw people's attention to the evening news
C．college students get along well with others
D．develop strong neighborhood relationships
29．According to the text，good booksB．
A．offer as much knowledge as TV does
B．are more entertaining than TV
C．should be made into films
D．cannot be found easily
30．In the author's opinion，life without TVC．
A．is not good for children's imagination
B．will be accepted by more people
C．used to be a lot of fun
D．is not worth living
31．What would be the best title for the text？B
A．The future of television
B．Turning off TV：a quiet hour
C．Saying goodbye to television
D．Effects of television on humans．

1．Shoppers in the United States have many different retail stores（零售店）to choose from．You can shop at large department stores，furniture stores，jewelry stores，electronic equipment stores and many others．Another type of retail store-the catalog store，has become popular in the U．S．
Catalog stores offer much of the same goods as traditional retail stores．However，in these  stores，shoppers select the items they wish to buy from large catalogs that are filled with photos    and descriptions of all the different goods．The variety of products listed in the catalogs includes everything from baby clothing to video equipment and watches．The prices of these items are very low．In fact，the same items often cost more in other retail stores．And that's the reason many people prefer to shop in catalog stores．
When shoppers go to a catalog store，they see many brand-name products on display．If they are interested in purchasing an item，they need to follow this simple procedure．
●First，they go to a counter to find the store's catalog．
●They look in the catalog to find the exact item they wish to buy．
●Then，they fill out an order form with the name of the item，the item number from the    catalog，the price，and their name and address．
●After completing the form，the customer gives it to a salesperson，who checks to see if the item is in stock．
If the item is available，the stockroom sends it on a conveyor belt（输送带）to the pick-up  counter．When the item arrives at the pick-up counter，the customer's name is called，and the  customer pays for the item．
The whole procedure usually takes ten to twenty'minutes．If the item isn't available，the salesperson can usually check the store's computer and find out when it will be in stock again．
Catalog stores usually don't offer all the services that regular retail stores do．They usually don't have many salespeople，so customers can't expect to receive much assistance or attention from store employees．Customers need to know about the features and the quality of the items they wish to buy before they shop，since there isn't much opportunity to ask questions or examine the product in the store．However，catalog stores offer quality items at lower prices，and consumers seem to appreciate this．
32．What is the difference between the traditional retail stores and the catalog storesB？
A．The prices of products in catalog stores are higher．
B．Shoppers select the items they need from large catalogs．
C．Catalog Stores offer more products than the traditional stores．

A．④-①-③-⑤-②B．①-④-②-③-⑤
C．④-①-②-⑤-③D．④-②-⑤-③-①
34．From the text we know that shopper of catalog storesD．

House，and my mother said that we （25）would leave/be leaving/were leaving （leave） for America soon．We were on the bus then．I

5．Drug Problems
If you're worried about your own or someone else's drug taking or misuse，it's good to know the facts．
Why take drugs？
Drug users don't start using drugs with the intention of becoming addicted．But many drugs contain addictive substances and even people who use them occasionally can become dependent and need to use them regularly．
Reasons why people start using drugs can include：to escape problems they may be having in other parts of their life，peer pressure and fitting in with another group of people，being curious about the effects of drugs．
If you start to use drugs on a regular basis，or if you become dependent on them，it can affect your family and friends as well as having a serious impact on your own physical and mental well-being．
Drug overdoses can be fatal．You can die instantly from misusing substances and drugs that you can buy over the counters．
Signs of drug abuse and misuse
There is not a common list of symptoms that you can use to tell if you or someone you know is misusing drugs．That's because drug use affects different people in different ways，depending on the type of drugs they're using．
Although anxiety，tiredness and a change in sleeping habits can be signs of drug use，they can also be caused by changes in your body，stress or other problems．
Drugs are categorized into three classes based on their overall level of harm．Class A drugs are the most dangerous，however，all the drugs in all three classes are harmful and addictive．
Remember that all drugs are illegal，even Class C drugs like cannabis（大麻烟）．If you're caught selling them to other people，or carrying a small amount in your pocket，it's likely that the police will get involved．
If you're found guilty of any of these offences，you may face a fine or time in custody（拘留），with Class A drugs carrying the most severe sentences．
Worried about a friend？
If you think that one of your friends or relatives is misusing drugs，you may want to approach them and talk about it．It's not your responsibility to make them stop，but you can tell them about how their behavior is affecting your relationship．
If they ask for help with their problem，then it's important to listen and help them find the right information and treatment．
National Drugs Helpline
If you're worried about drug abuse and addiction you can call the National Drugs Helpline on 0800 776 600for confidential advice---lines are open seven days a week．Calls are free and they won't show up on your phone bill，but you may be charged if you use a mobile．

6．If you enjoyed the spring-like sunshine over the weekend and thought the weather has finally turned a corner，you're sadly mistaken．
Chilly （寒冷的） days and grey clouds are forecast for the week-making it far too early to pack away the winter woollies．
Temperatures will struggle to rise above zero at night and fail to make double figures during the day．
People enjoy the spring sunshine in Sefton Park，Aigburth，Liverpool．Forecasters have predicted a return to chilly weather this week．
Met Office forecaster Charlie said，"It was a nice，dry，bright weekend in many parts and Monday is going to be a similar affair for many．"
"Temperatures will be between 5℃and 8℃，which is below average for the start of spring．"
The sun will disappear from the south of the country after today，with dry but cloudy conditions forecast for tomorrow and Wednesday．
Wednesday will be warmest of the three，with temperatures peaking at 9℃．But this is still two degrees below the March average for the district．
Overnight，temperatures will drop sharply，with lows of minus 3℃for the next three nights．
"It will generally stay on the cold side of average，"said Mr．Powell．
The March misery comes at the end of the coldest winter for more than 30years．
Temperatures in December，January and February struggled to stay above zero，with the UK's average 1.5℃，making it the deepest freeze since 1978-79．
It claimed there was just a one-in-seven chance of a cold December to February．
The agency also sadly predicted a"barbecue summer"，saying it was"quite optimistic"that it would be warmer and drier than average．
Following the two mistakes，the Met Office has dropped its long-range seasonal forecasts and will instead publish a monthly prediction for Britain，updated once a week．
In its defense，it says that while short-term forecasts are extremely accurate，Britain's size and geographical position makes long-term predictions much more challenging．
It also points out that it gave warning of any heavy falls of snow this winter．
