9．If you really want to get to know someone，travel with them．
Having said that，I've heard horror stories，and with a couple of plans in the works for future trips with friends．I wanted to find some people who have successfully traveled with friends for advice on how to keep sensible when the trip involves lots of time spending with my best friends．
1．Talk money ahead of time
When you're traveling with friends，the topic of money will certainly come up．It's a good idea to talk about expenses before even booking the tickets．
2．Create a group schedule
When traveling in a group，a lot of time can be wasted trying to figure out what to do once you get there-if this hasn't been discussed ahead of time．
3．Nominate a trip leader
If you'll be traveling in a group with different friends，it can be hard to keep everyone motivated，so we should choose one person to be the key decision maker of the group for the trip．The leader can set departure times and let everyone know the basic plan by giving it a proper arrangement．
4．Put your important documents together
Once you've chosen a leader，using a travel folder to gather all tickets，maps and other important documents can help the process of group travel smoothly，as well．
5．Power down
Nothing is more likely to cause anger than when one person is trying to have a conversation with someone who's busy showing off the trip online．Turn off all messages，voice-mails and social media activity，and live in the moment with your friends．When you travel and end up spending the time with your face buried in your phone，your companions will certainly think your social networking is more interesting than their company．
6．Set specific free time
If you do decide to go by yourself and set your specific free time，you can use a communication app，like Wechat，to stay in touch．It allows you to send your location and communicate effectively if you travel alone while exploring．

33．The purpose of the text is toD．

34．If you want to book the tickets before travelling，the most important topic you are concerned about isC．

35．Why is your company angry with you？D

8．We know that cigarette smoking kills．So，producers made electronic cigarettes as a safer smoking choice-safer than tobacco．Although e-cigarettes contain the drug nicotine like cigarettes，they do not use tobacco and you do not light them．They are powered by battery．
However，if e-cigarettes are so safe，why has the United States Center for Disease Control（CDC）seen an increase in telephone calls about e-cigarette poisonings？
The answer is children．Most of the calls are from people worried about children who have played with the devices，In the period of one month this year，the Center said 215people called the Center with e-cigarette concerns．More than half of these calls were for children aged five and younger．The devices had made them sick．
Tim McAfee is director of the Center's Office on Smoking and Health，He says the problem is regulation．Meaning，the U．S． federal government does not control e-cigarettes even though they contain liquid nicotine．Mr．McAfee adds that liquid nicotine is a well-known danger．Mr．McAfee explains that nicotine poisoning happens when it gets into the skin，gets into the eyes or is swallowed．It can cause stomach pain or a sense of unbalance．And too much nicotine can kill．
Tim McAfee says e-cigarettes do not create the level of risk to people that tobacco products do．He notes that almost 500，000Americans die each year from cigarettes．"So，cigarettes are the winner in that contest．"E-cigarettes do not contain hundreds of harmful chemicals that are found in real cigarettes．So，the U．S．Surgeon General Boris D．Lushniak has suggested that e-cigarettes may be a useful tool for adults trying to end their tobacco use．
But McAfee worries that teenagers may think electronic cigarettes are harmless．They could become addicted to the nicotine and then start smoking real cigarettes．In other words，he fears that for young people fake e-cigarettes could be a"gateway"to the real thing．

29．What do the producers think of e-cigarettes？C
A．Dangerous．
B．Expensive．
C．Safer．
D．Cheaper．
30．Why did the CDC receive so many calls about e-cigarettes？A
A．Parents feared that their children might get poisoned．
B．Parents found the device useless in quitting smoking．
C．Children swallowed the liquid nicotine from the device．
D．Children might get addicted to playing with the device．
31．It can be inferred from the passage thatB．
A．the CDC wants to develop a better type of e-cigarettes
B．the government is in favor of the use of e-cigarettes
C．Surgeon General Boris
D．Lushniak is a heavy smoker
D．smokers most probably can't quit smoking using e-cigarettes
32．What is Tim McAfee's opinion about smoking？D
A．Adults should use harmless e-cigarettes．
B．Smoking e-cigarettes can make a person sick．
C．He claims that regulations should be made to ban smoking．
D．He is concerned about the teens using e-cigarettes．

7．My 16-year-old son，Anton，had gone to the local swimming hole．Most of the kids swim there，and there are plenty of rocks for them to use as safe harbors，so I had no fears for his safety．
Still，the firefighter's first words"You need to come up here to the Stillwater River"made me catch my breath，and his follow-up words gave me relief："Your son is OK．"
When I got to the river，I immediately saw the fire-truck，ambulance and Anton，wrapped with a towel about his shoulders，sitting quietly on a low platform of the fire engine．
I hurried over to him．"You OK？"I asked．
"Yeah，"was all he said．But my eyes begged for an explanation，I didn't get it from my son，however，who tends to play his cards close to his vest．
The story was this：A woman was being swept under water．Hearing the cries，Anton and his friend Tyler，without hesitation，swam out to her，and brought her safely to shore．
In an age in which the word"hero"is broadcast with abandon and seemingly applied to anyone who make it through the day，I realized the real thing in my son．The teens are stubborn and self-centred，but that didn't mean they have no desire to do good．
Still shocked by my son's daring，I drove him home．Along the way，I tried to dig out some more information from him-but he had precious little to say．The only words he said were，"What's for supper？"
I spent some time alone that evening，thinking about the tragedy that might have been．The next morning，when Anton got up，I half expected him to tell me the story．But all he did was toast some bread，pull himself together，and head for the door to start a new day．Watching from the window，1was reminded that still water often runs deep．

21．Why did the mother allow her son to swim there？D
A．He was an excellent swimmer．
B．The water of the river is shallow．
C．He was old enough to swim．
D．The rocks can be of help if there's danger．
22．The underlined part"who tends to play his cards close to his vest"probably meansB
A．Anton is a boy fond of swimming with other kids
B．Anton is unwilling to tell others what he thinks
C．Anton always has a desire to help others
D．Anton seldom changes his mind
23．In the mother's eyes，what her son did wasC．
A．dangerous but interesting
B．meaningful but difficult
C．unexpected and courageous
D．awful and absurd
24．What might be the best title for the passage？A

Last Sunday I was walking to the Green Lake Park while I met a foreign visitor who seemed to be losting．I tried to help him but I found we had troubles in understanding each other because my poor English．Just at that moment，a young lady came to help．She spoke well English．The foreigner was unable to find the way with her help，and I learned some English，either．Before the foreigner left，he said he was thankful for their kindness．It was at that time that I decide to work harder at English．This experience has been made me realize that English is really useful．

2．It was now raining heavily．My husband was away．I did not want to ask anyone else to go with me．So I went to the hospital by（61）myself．I was taken to a small room．Lina lay（62）sleeping（sleep） quietly on a table．
This wasn't（63）thefirst time Lina had taken too many pills．I knew she would sleep deeply for about twelve hours（64）until/beforethe poison stopped doing its harm．
I sat down by Lina's side and watched her sleep．The room was still．I looked around．The room seemed familiar．"Have I been here before？"I wondered．I looked around again．"I'm sure I've been in this room，"I told myself．Then I remembered．It was in this very room （65）thatI gave birth（66）toLina seventeen years ago．（67）Howhappy I was then!
Lina used to be such a bright，（68）healthy（health） and nice child．"What has turned her into a dope-taker （吸毒者）？"I asked myself．"And why are millions of young people like her（69）taking（take） dope to destroy themselves？There must be something（70）seriously（serious） wrong with our society．What is it？"

1．They baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital．She is quiet but alert （警觉）．Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it．She stares at it carefully．A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another，this time with the spots differently spaced．As the cards change from one to the other，her gaze（凝视） starts to lose its focus-until a third，with three black spots，is presented．Her gaze returns：she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card．Can she tell that the number two is different from three，just 24hours after coming into the world？
Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer？The same experiment，but with three spots shown before two，shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes．Perhaps it is just the newness？When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects （a comb，a key，an orange and so on），changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves．Could it be the pattern that two things make，as opposed to three？No again．Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three，or three to two．The effect even crosses between senses．Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two； likewise （同样地） when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots．

20．For years scientists have been worried about the effects of air pollution on the earth's natural conditions．Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside．It may be one hundred times worse．
Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired，to suffer eye pain，headache and other problems．Some pollutants（污染物）can cause breathing disorders，diseases of blood and even cancer．Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution．
People have paid more attention to the problem now．It is true that when builders began making houses and offices they did not waste energy．To do this they build buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside．They also began using man-made building materials．These materials are now known to let out harmful gases．
As the problem became more serious，scientists began searching for a way to deal with it．They discovered a natural pollution control system for building-green plants．Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution．They believe that a plant's leaves absorb or take in the pollutants．In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and tiny organizations on its roots．Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square meters of space．Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals．So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants．Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place．

48． Generally speaking，indoor air pollution may be more harmful than the air outside becauseC．
A．indoor air pollution can often make people seriously ill
B．there may be more harmful gases outside the buildings

A．the man-made building materials and the limit of air-flow
B．the building way that the builders want to save energy
C．the building things that are made of man-made materials
D．the limit of the flow of air between inside and outside
51． The reason why we should use different kinds of plants to clean the air is thatD．
A．plants can let out all kinds of pollutants indoors
B．plants may take in more oxygen which people need
C．plants can make our houses prettier and more healthy
