2．It's Friday evening．My daughters，3 and 9，sigh（叹息） when I gently take the iPads away from their laps．One by one，our screens are turned off．We light the candles and sit down to have a big meal．
Most people in our lives know they will not be able to contact us by using computer or mobile phones for 24 hours．And so it has gone，every week for three years．We call it our"Technology Shabbat（科技安息日）"which lasts from sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday．
I first understood the importance of disconnecting in 2008，when my father was told that he had got brain cancer．Some days he would have only one good hour，and I wasn't willing to be disturbed when I was with him，so I'd turn off my mobile phone．
Soon after，encouraged by National Day of Unplugging（全国断网断电日） on March 1st，my husband and I decided to unplug for one full day every week．
During our"Technology Shabbats"，time slows．Our Saturdays now feel like mini-vacations．We drive our car or ride our bike．We，with our kids，work in the garden，play board games and cook meals．I feel more balanced．I feel like a better mother，wife and person．
Keeping a balance between the good and the bad of technology is my lasting state．The technology we've created makes it possible for us to share knowledge and take in carious ideas all over the world．But the technology also take something away from us．When we stay up late at night linking（连接） from website to website or sending messages or e-mailing，we click again，and again，and again until we've overloaded（超负荷的）．
When we rush into the time full of high technology，it's necessary for us to pay attention to what we are doing online and when we should go off．
I will always remember the most important thing in my family："Technology Shabbat"．
32．When is"Technology Shabbat'in the writer's family？B
A．Only on Sunday．
B．From sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday．
C．Only on Friday．
D．From sunset on Saturday to sunset on Sunday．
33．The writer's family have"Technology Shabbat"every week mainly because they hope toB．
A．save energy
B．enjoy life together
C．stay away from others
D．follow National Day of Unplugging
34．What do the writers family NOT do during their"Technology Shabbats"？D
A．They drive their car or ride bikes for mini-vacations．
B．They light the candles and sit down to have a big meal．
C．They work in the garden，play board games and cook meals．
D．They stay up late at night linking from website to website．
35．What's the main idea of this passage？A
A．Every family must have''Technology Shabbat"．
B．A woman should Iearn to be a good mother or wife．
C．People need to stay away from technology properly．
D．People had better not send messages，e-mail or chat online．

分析文章大意：本文叙述了作者一家在父亲病重需要照顾的情况下，体会到了关机不被打扰的安静，又在全国断网断电日的鼓励下，作者一家决定每周也实行断电断网日，来享受一家人的天伦之乐．

解答 32题答案：B 细节理解题．根据第二段We call it our"Technology Shabbat（科技安息日）"which lasts from sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday．可知从周五的日落到周六的日落为科技安息日，故选B．

34题答案：D 细节理解题．根据encouraged by National Day of Unplugging（全国断网断电日） on March 1st，my husband and I decided to unplug for one full day every week．因为作者在全国断网断电日拔掉了电源，关了电脑，所以不可能做的事情就是上网了，故选D．
35题答案：A 主旨归纳题．根据文中的最后一句：I will always remember the most important thing in my family："Technology Shabbat"．我会永远记得在我的家庭中最重要的一件事："技术的安息日"．来享受一家人的天伦之乐，所以每个家庭都应该有技术的安息日，故选择A．

13．Chip was in first grade when I arrived at his school as a counselor（辅导员）．It was shocking to me that he was described as an angry，uncontrollable and evil（惹人厌的）boy．How could such a little boy，after being in school only one year，be considered"evil"？Over the next several months，I came to know Chip well enough to see that he was neither evil nor uncontrollable．
But，one day，Chip threw a chair at his teacher and was sent to my office．I asked him what made him do this．He replied that his teacher hated him．He felt there was no way to ever get her to like him．I asked him if he would tell his teacher this．He noded，and we called her into my office．
When the teacher came，________．He then said that he knew he was a very，very bad boy，and he didn't think anyone could ever like him．His teacher listened to him with heartfelt compassion．Then she gave him a big warm hug，telling him she didn't hate him at all and，actually，she cared very much about him．Only sometimes Chip's behavior really scared her．It was clear to both Chip and me that she really meant it．
I put my left arm on his shoulders and the right hand on his heart．I told him how wonderful and lovely I saw him to be．I praised how speceal and brave he was to express his hurt feelings．
As I was speaking to him，his whole body came to rest on my right hand next to his heart．Ir was a moment in time unlike anything I had experienced before．From then on，I'm pleased to see his behavior improved through the rest of school years．
A child's mind is clear and sensitive（敏感的）．He receives whatever others say without protection．It is as easy to consider someone hopeless as it is to consider him able in his own special way．

17．Have you ever wondered what goes through your mind when you choose where to sit in a new classroom？Or in a waiting room full of strangers？Or on a bus？Researchers have found out some interesting facts．
    Perhaps unsurprisingly，we prefer to sit closer to people like ourselves．Girls，sit by girls and
boys sit by boys．Adults sit together and young people choose another young person to sit near．But it goes further than this．We even choose to sit near someone who looks like us．People with glasses are more likely to sit near other people with glasses．People with long hair sit closer to other people with long hair．
    We seem to believe that people with similar habits or hobbies will share similar attitudes and we are more likely to be accepted by people like ourselves or even，we think we may be safer with people who look like us．Sometimes that's true but it's a pity if we always stick to the same people，the same group．The danger in always staying in our comfort zone （舒适区） is that we just recycle the same opinions，the same tastes and the same ideas．We lose the chance to learn something new，find out about interesting things，hear funny stories and discover differences．
    When we always stick to the same people，how can we ever break down the barriers which prevent us from getting to know people with different ideas？And how can we avoid the ignorance （无知），which too often leads to prejudice （偏见） and even fear？If instead you want to live in a society that opens to changes and new things and different opinions，be the cat among the pigeons．
    Move out of your comfort zone．Go and sit next to someone different．And don't just sit there in silence．Say hello．Ask a question．Start a conversation．That's how we make friends．That's how we learn about people．That's how we open our minds to new ideas．That's how we live an exciting life．
53．From the passage，we know that people prefer sitting by someone whoA．
A．is like themselves
B．has a sense of humor
C．is open-minded
D．lives an exciting life
54．People like staying in their comfort zone because they mayB．
A．remain comfortable and special
B．be accepted easily and feel sale
C．find out more interesting things
D．discover differences among themselves
55．What is the purpose of the passage？D
A．To tell us just to be ourselves in social life．
B．To introduce ways to learn about the world
C．To explain how people communicate with others．
D．To encourage us to meet people of different kinds．

7．The right name is important in the business world．All you have to do is think of the names for some of the products you buy every day and you'll agree that the name and the product are connected in the everyone's mind．
In many countries，successful trade or brand names are protected by law．This is so that other companies cannot make a product and，in fact，be buying something different．Businesses register a company or a product name with the government．In fact，more than 1，000product and company names are registered every hour．Many companies spend a lot of money to find the right name for their products．A good example of this is in the car industry．Some successful names for cars have powerful associations （联系）．The Ford Mustang and the Jaguar are only two examples of choosing the names of animals that are fast and strong．
When a U．S company decides to sell its product in another country，it has to make sure that the product name translates properly．When Coca-Cola introduced its soft drink to China，it looked for the right nam．It wanted a name that would do two things．One was to present its image（形象）in Chinese and the second was to be close to its first brand name-Coke．It took some efforts before finding the right word-which sounds similar and translates as"happiness in the mouth"．Asian company names are not new to the United States．The brand names of Samsung and Sony have been successful．Finding the right brand name is a big business．Asian companies that sell to foreign markets pay to find a name that will connect with its customers．There are even naming companies that specialize in inventing produt names．These companies can charge （要价）up to $100，000a word for their creations．But it's worth it．Successful companies know how important the right brand names are for their development．

33．Why are trade names protected by law in many countries？D
A．To make companies pay for naming service．
B．To help people choose the best products
C．To present good images of the products．

14．Zoos are places where different kinds of animals are kept and shown for the public．At most modern zoos people can see，smell and hear animals in their natural way．Some zoos even have"friendship farms"where people can touch some of the animals．Here are four reasons why people need zoos．
    Firstly．zoos educate people a bout animals and their natural environment．They give interesting information about each animal，such as where it comes from and how it lives．Special teachers at the zoo help children understand more about the animals．Trained guides show visitors around the zoo．
    Secondly．zoos are working hard to find out more about animals．New knowledge leads to improved ways of looking after animals in the zoo，and better understanding of the same animals in the wild．
    Thirdly．zoos play a part in protecting animals and stopping them from disappearing．Zoos work together with each other to help the animals in danger．For example，gorillas （大猩猩） from Taronga Zoo were sent to live with gorillas at the Melbourne Zoo in the hope that they would give birth to babies．
    Finally．zoos are important for people's enjoyment．People enjoy getting close to animals without having to cross the plains （平原） of Africa or climb the mountains of China．In the past，animal shows were common in zoos．Visitors were excited by monkeys in human clothes，and the y even took rides on elephants or horses．However，today people prefer to see animals behaving naturally．
    So a modern zoo is a place where animals are well eared for．
44．Special teachers at the zooD．
A．show visitors around the zoo
B．ride elephants or horses
C．look after animals in danger
D．help children know about animals
45．From the passage we knowBwere sent from Taronga Zoo to the Melbourne Zoo．

D．elephants

11．Reading is very important to help you learn English．To learn as much as you can from reading，you need to read different kinds of English．This book provides not only different kinds of English but also a good way to check your reading ability．There are four parts in the book：

Chapter One：Messages In this part somebody wants to send information in writing to somebody else．	Chapter Two：Things You will find some descriptive writing in this part．There are descriptions of clothes and of a computer．
Chapter Three：Places In this part，too．Many different kinds of English are shown，some informal（非正式的） and some formal（正式的）．There is the informal English of a holiday postcard．There is also the formal English in a letter of complaint．	Chapter Four：People In this part all the tests are about people．For example，there is an informal letter between friends．There is formal English in biography （传记）．There is a job application as a model to help with your writing，as well as testing your reading．

There is a test on timetables and a test on text messages．You can do these tests in any order you like，or you can do all the tests with a formal or informal text．I enjoyed writing this book and I hope you enjoy using it．

8．Cause and effect is one way to explain things that happen around us．Many things happen because something caused or influenced them to happen．Sometimes it is hard to look at a cause and find out what caused or influenced them to happen．Sometimes it is hard to look at a cause and find out what causes the effect．It may help you to start with the effect and use your reasoning（推理的） skills．Think about all the things you know that could be reasons for the effect you can see．
For example，you may see someone putting on a heavy jacket．This is the effect．To look for a cause，think to yourself，"What would take someone put on a heavy jacket？"Maybe the person is going outside into very cold weather．Maybe the person works in the penguin pen（企鹅圈养地） at Sea World．Maybe the person is going to visit an ice skating rink where the air is kept very cold．All of these things could be a cause for putting on a heavy jacket．
Now，think about a second example．The effect is a boy named Abi has to go to the head teacher's office．What are the possible causes？Maybe he bullied（欺负） another student．Maybe he is just being picked up early．Maybe he is being given a prize!
Here is another example for you to think about its cause and effect．Cait，13，was trying to fall asleep when her 8-year-old brother，Doug，came into her room．He looked around a bit，but seemed really out of it．Then Doug went back into the hallway and stood there looking straight up at the hall light for quite a while．Little brothers can be very strange，but this was really much too strange．Cait's father appeared and explained that Doug was sleepwalking．What's the cause end effect，could you tell？
