Today, a man talked very loud on his phone on a train between Malvern and Reading, making many passengers upset. I wonder how he would react if I were to read my newspaper out loud on the train, I have never had the courage to do it, though.

Why not give it a try? Perhaps you should take lessons on a musical instrument. The late musician Dennis Brian is said to have
asked a fellow train passenger to turn off his radio. When his request was refused, he took out his French horn(号) and started
to practice.

I don’t see how musical instruments can help improve manners in public. Don’t do to others what you wouldn’t like to be done to yourself. Once, a passenger next to me talked out loud on his mobile phone. I left my seat quietly, giving him some privacy to finish his conversation. He realized this and apologised to me. When his phone rang again later, heleft his seat to answer it. You see, a bit of respect and cooperation can do the job better.

【题目】 Suppose that we lined up our roughly 14 million United States businesses in order of size, starting with the smallest, along an imaginary road from San Francisco to New York. There will be 4,500 businesses to the mile, or a little less than one per foot. Suppose further that we planted a flag each business. The height of the flag pole represents the yearly volume of sales (销量) , each $ 10, 000 in sales in shown by one foot of pole.

The line of flagpoles is a very interesting sight. From San Francisco to about Reno, it is almost unnoticeable, a row of poles about a foot high. From Reno eastward the poles increase in height until, near Columbus, Ohio - about four - fifths of the way across the nation - flags fly about 10 feet in the air.

But as we approach the eastern terminus (终点) , the poles suddenly begin to mount (升高) . There are about 300, 000 firms in the country with sales over $ 500, 000. These firms take up the last 75 miles of the 3,000 - mile road. There are 200, 000 firms with sales over $ 1 million. They take up the last 50 miles. Then there are 1, 000 firms with sales of $ 50, 000, 000 or more. They take up the last quarter of a mile before the city limits, flags flying at cloud height, 5 , 000 feet up .

At the very gate of New York, on the last 100 feet of the last mile , we find the 100 largest industrial firms . They have sales of at least $ 1.5 billion, so that their flags are already miles high. Along the last 10 feet of road , there are 10 largest companies . Their sales are roughly $ 10 billion and up : their flags fly 190 miles in the air , almost in the stratosphere (平流层) .

1What is the author’s main purpose in this passage?

A.To tell the reason why the largest firms are in New York.

B.To show the geographical distribution (分布) of the United States businesses.

C.To provide a general idea of the size of businesses in the United States.

D.To tell us how the United States businesses are arranged.

2What’s the correct order of the following places from east to west?

A.San Francisco, Reno, New York, Columbus.

B.San Francisco, Reno, Columbus, New York.

C.New York, Columbus, Reno, San Francisco

D.New York, Reno, Columbus, San Francisco

3Among the four parts of the imaginary road , which part , considering all the firms in it , has the largest total volume of sales ?

A.The last 75 miles.B.The last 50 miles.

C.The last 100 feet of the last mile.D.The last quarter of a mile

4Which of the following diagrams (图表) shows the right order of size of the US businesses , according to the text ?

S =" San" Francisco R =" Reno" C =" Columbus" N =" New" York H =" height" F = feet

A.B.C.D.

【题目】 All aboard: try these out

Here are new card games popular in the Western geek circle that offer much brain work. Give them a try if you fancy testing your limits.

Mysterium

In this game, the players are to solve a murder mystery in order to put rest the soul of a wrongly-accused man who dies in prison.

Mysterium allows one player to be the ghost itself, who offers hints to other players in the way of “dream cards”. The dream cards will then lead players to the cards with details about the murder weapon, location and suspects. Figuring out the connections between these elements will help them find the murderer.

Playing the ghost can be fun, as Tony Mastrangeli, a game reviewer, puts it, “For me, some of the most fun comes from playing the ghost role. I like steering the ship and handing out cards.”

Codenames

Codenames starts players out with cards. Each card bears a word on the front and a secret identity on the reverse. Players are divided into two teams, red team and blue team. Each team has a leader, or “spymaster”, who owns a map of each hidden identity. It’s then their job to give out clues so the team members can find their own spies.

Spymasters can only indicate the word on the card following a strict format: a single word followed by a number. For example, if the cards bearing “cactus(仙人掌)” and “heat” both belong to the red team, the clue can be “desert, two”. The red team members will then start discussing the clues and try to find the two cards that relate to “desert”.

Pandemic: Legacy

In this game, you and your friends play a team of doctors and scientists, who can help to prevent four deadly diseases from wiping out humanity. This is a cooperative game, which means you and your teammates either live together or die together.

By drawing an instruction card, teammates will be able to move, treat diseases or build a research station. If they draw one of the five “epidemic” (流行病) cards, the city will suffer a disease outbreak. If handled wrong, outbreaks might lead to a chain reaction and cause things to crash down.

Pandemic: Legacy requires you to look at the bigger picture before making any decisions. Finding the balance between treating diseases and seeking more permanent cures is a constant challenge.

1Playing the ghost in Mysterium offers you a lot of fun because ________.

A.you can bring the poor man back to life

B.you can solve the murder mystery by yourself

C.you can dominate the whole game

D.you can select your partners

2In Codenames, what clue may the Spymaster give for the cards bearing “agency”, “climate” and “fountain”?

A.“architecture, 3”B.“tourism, 3”

C.“location, 3”D.“geology, 3”

3Which of the following is NOT true about Pandemic: Legacy?

A.It’s a role-play game.

B.Its players need to beat one another.

C.It provides fun and mental challenge.

D.It calls for carefulness and comprehensive thinking to win the challenge.
