14．Competition in the text messaging market is heating up．One program is WeChat or Weixin in Chinese owned by Tencent．It's currently the number one messaging App in China．
Tang Li，a student from University of California Berkeley，is leaving a voice message for his mother at home in Jiangsu Province，China．The communication is completely free through WeChat．He says，"We chat among students on WeChat here to talk about homework，club meetings and I also chat with my parents on WeChat．"
Fellow Chinese student Ashley Ji used to message with the popular WhatsApp，but now WeChat because of the playful emoticons （表情符）．She says，"We can add our own emotions，not only what Tencent provides，also our own designs，more interesting，more personal．"
Marcos Sanchez from App Annie says"In our Asian markets，Korea in particular，we have seen the success of many emoticon companies．Some float to the top in terms of their income．We don't see that in the US market．"App Annie measures the global App market．
Sanchez says，"I've used one program called Look Around and it will actually tell you the users nearby．Probably a good 80-90percent of the users were Chinese．But it was funny to me that I did actually notice a few Americans．"
Mark Niu says，"Tencent，which now has a few offices in the US，hopes to grow their WeChat user base in America．The company did recently announce that it had 70million registered WeChat users outside of China，a jump of 30million users in about three months．In the US，WeChat user is on the rise．"

13．With an increasing number of foreigners visiting China each day，many restaurants around China are providing English versions of their menus to make it easier for foreign visitors to order Chinese dishes．Some restaurants even hope to add the foreigners'knowledge of Chinese menu．
But an article in the China Youth Daily claims that the English menu translations have failed to live up to public expectations．It argues most of the English names of Chinese dishes lack the cultural meaning and attraction of the dishes they describe．Instead，the translations only provide a list of each dish's ingredients，the article notes．For example，one English name of a Chinese dish appears as"Steamed Abalone with Shark's Fin and Fish Maw in Broth"，which fails to describe the dish's rich cultural meaning and charm．The dish's beautiful Chinese name，"Fo Tiao Qiang"，has a story behind it．Buddhist monks are required to eat vegetables only，but they can't resist the delicious dish．So they jump over the temple walls to get a taste of the dish．
The article suggests that translators provide more beautiful translations of the names of Chinese dishes．It also notes a more vivid（生动的） English translation is very important to provide international visitors with a better understanding of Chinese cuisine．

21．The underlined phrase"live up to"in the second paragraph probably meansA．
A．satisfy B．interest
C．encourage D．get

I always have a dream to be a fluency speaker．Therefore，I am too shy to say a word in public．What is just beyond my wildest imagination is fortune should bless me with a chance to realize my dream．One day，my English teacher asked me to go to her office and told us that I was given an opportunity to participate in an English speaking competition．Hear this，I could hardly hide my excitement．When making preparation for the competition，I write my speech heart and soul．After I finished the composition，I discussed it with my teacher and got many advice on how to improve it．Under the help of my English teacher，I made a great progress．

11．We've always limited"screen time"at home：no screen time before two years of age，and only occasional educational DVDs after that．Researchers have found a connection between screen time and a host of behavioral and physical problems．Some children have become so addicted to iPads and other tablet devices （平板电脑装置） that their parents have even sought out treatment．
So，should I be perturbed about the increasing dependence on technology in our schools？In addition to a weekly computer class，my first-grade daughter spends much of her instructional school day in front of the"smart board"．And now，school districts across the country are talking about replacing textbooks with tablets．
There are several factors that need careful consideration．Important distinctions must be drawn between television screen time （yes，even educational programming），which is a mostly passive medium，and tablet screen time，which is more interactive （互动的）．Another important factor is the age of the child．All people need human interaction，but babies and small children need it most of all．Studies have suggested that tablets may help improve reading and writing abilities in school-aged children，however，plus they help children with autism （a mental disorder） communicate．
Tablets in the classroom could replace expensive and heavy textbooks，allow children to make and read notes more easily，providing interactive functions and help track progress．When I was a child，I could hardly carry my backpack up my driveway-we could avoid a lot of back problems by using one light and thin tablet instead of huge textbooks．
Beyond common concerns （what happens if the tablet is lost，stolen or broken？），I do worry about that we are rushing toward a brave new world of technology without considering what we might lose．If our children spend too much time on tablets，they run the risk of becoming addicted and missing out on a lot of what the world has to offer，especially in a time when schools are cutting art，music and gym．Human brains need real-world connections，touchable sensations and even some downtime．Tablets can be a part of child's education，but we have to guard against these devices taking over．

29．The underlined word"perturbed"in Paragraph 2is closest in meaning to"D"．
A．curious B．happy
C．excited D．worried
30．According to Paragraph 3，allowing very young children to use tabletsB．
A．is worth a try
B．may be harmful
C．helps improve their learning skills
D．offers them more human interactions
31．The author mentions her childhood experience toC．
A．express her support for traditional education
B．stress the importance of taking notes
C．show the disadvantages of textbooks
D．describe her happy childhood
32．Which may be the author's opinion on tablets？A
A．They're helpful only in a limited way．
B．They are too expensive for most students．
C．They excite students'interest in learning．
D．They improve the effectiveness of education．

10．Towards evening，Jennifer was walking on the beach with a gentle breeze blowing through her hair．Looking up at the golden red sun ball，she was surprised by its color，deep red in the middle，softly fading into yellow．She could hear nothing but the waves and the seagulls flying up above in the sky．
The atmosphere relaxed her．This was what she needed．"It's getting late，"she thought，"I must go home．My parents will be wondering where I am．"She wondered how her parents would react when she got home after the three days she was missing．She kept on walking，directing herself to bungalow 163，where she spent every summer holiday．The road was deserted．She walked slowly and silently．Just in a few hundred meters，she would have been safe in her house．
It was really getting dark now．She wished she had her favorite coat on．It might keep her really warm．She imagined having it with her．This thought dissipated（消散） when she finally saw her front door．It seemed different．Nobody had taken care of the outside garden for a few days．She was shocked：her father was usually so strict about keeping everything clean and tidy，and now…
She entered the house．First，she went into the kitchen and saw a note written by her father，
"Dear Ellen，there's some coffee ready； I went looking．"But where was Ellen？On the right side of the hallway was her parents'room．She went in and saw her．Her mother，lying on the bed，was sleeping．Her face looked so tired，as if she hadn't slept for days．She was really pale．Jennifer would have wanted to wake her up，but she looked too tired．So Jennifer just fell asleep beside her．When Jennifer woke up something was different．She wasn't in her mother's room and she wasn't wearing the old clothes she ran away in．She was in her cozy bed in her pajamas（睡衣）．
It felt so good being back home．Suddenly she heard a voice．"Are you feeling better now，dear？You know you got us very，very scared．"

9．I travel a lot，and I find out different"styles"of directions every time I ask"How can I get to the post office？"
Foreign tourists are often confused in Japan because most streets there don't have names； in Japan，people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names．For example，the Japanese will say to travelers，"Go straight down to the corner．Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market．The post office is across from the bus stop．"
In the countryside of the American Midwest，there are not usually many landmarks．There are no mountains，so the land is very flat； in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles．Instead of landmarks，people will tell you directions and distances．In Kansas or Iowa，for example，people will say，"Go north two miles．Turn east，and then go another mile．"
People in Los Angeles，California，have no idea of distance on the map； they measure distance in time，not miles．"How far away is the post office？"you ask．"Oh，"they answer，"it's about five minutes from here．"You say，"Yes，but how many miles away is it？"They don't know．
It's true that a person doesn't know the answer to your question sometimes．What happens in such a situation？A New Yorker might say，‘Sorry，I have no idea．"But in Yucatan，Mexico，no one answers"I don't know．"People in Yucatan believe that"I don't know"is impolite．They usually give an answer，often a wrong one．A tourist can get very，very lost in Yucatan!

21．When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place they usuallyB．
A．describe the place carefully
B．refer to recognizable buildings and places
C．show him a map of the place

A．in order to save time       B．as a test
C．for fun                     D．so as to be polite
24．What can we infer from the text？C
A．It's useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly．
B．People have similar understandings of politeness．
C．It's important for travelers to understand cultural differences．
