An online map showing in real-time how busy some of Beijing's best known sites are has been designed for tourists and residents so they can plan their visits. The map, developed by the Beijing Cyberspace Administration and the Beijing Commission of Tourism Development, monitors four popular scenic spots across the capital - the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Summer Palace and Olympic Forest Park.

People who want to visit the sites can see which parking lots have spaces free, and how crowded the venues are.

The map, at present available only in Chinese, has been designed by Sogou Inc, the Chinese search engine owned by Sohu.com Inc, and will be expanded to cover more sites across China. There are also plans to turn it into an app for smartphones.

"If there are traffic jams around these tourism destinations, roads on the map will turn red, and if visitors want to drive to the places, the map will provide every parking area in and near the spots and show a real-time monitor of empty parking lots at the same time," said Kong Xianglai, the designer and producer of the map from Sogou.

To make the information as clear and simple as possible, some buildings and streets around the sites have been removed from the map if they are not necessary, Kong said.

"Users will also see peaks in visitor numbers and where crowds are at these destinations on the map, so it is helpful for them to plan and select a travel time," he said.

1.The online map is especially helpful for those who want to visit ______.

A. Qinghai Lake B. the Great Wall

C. the Yellow Grane Tower D. the Summer Palace

2.What can visitors learn from the online map?

A. How crowded the streets in Shanghai are .

B. Which parking lots in and near Olympic Forest Park are empty.

C. Whether there are traffic jams in 50 top tourist spots across the country.

D. The number of the visitors in all scenic spots across Beijing.

3.According to Kong Xianglai, the online map is ________.

A. Useful B. Unnecessary

C. Expensive D. Complex

4.The text is most likely to be taken from_______.

A. A science textbook B. A museum guide

C. A study report D. A news report

With the development of science and technology, new inventions, especially new electronic products, have made people’s lives easy and convenient. But as the saying puts: A coin has two sides.

One day, I was walking in the park with a friend and his cell phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and…I became invisible, absent from the conversation.

The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent. Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a tragedy to the closeness of human interaction. With email and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine.

As almost every contact we can imagine between human beings gets automated, the alienation(疏远) index goes up. You can't even call a person to get the phone number of another person any more. Directory assistance is almost always fully automated.

Pumping petrol at the station? Why say good morning to the attendant when you can swipe(刷)your credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact?

Making a deposit at the bank? Why talk to a teller who might live in the neighborhood when you can just insert your card into ATM?

Pretty soon you won’t have the burden of making eye contact at the grocery shop. Some supermarket chains are using a self-scanner so you can check yourself out, avoiding those check-out people who look at you and ask how you are doing.

I am not against modern technology. I own a cell phone, an ATM card, a voice mail system, and an email account. Giving them up isn't wise…they're a great help to us. It's some of their possible consequences that make me feel uneasy.

More and more, I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation. Or being relieved that voice mail picked up a call because I didn't really have time to talk. The communications industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier.

So I've put myself on technology restriction: no instant messaging, with people who live near me，no cell phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I'm at home.

1.Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?

A. The Advance of Communications Technology

B. The Consequences of Modern Technology

C. We can be far away from them forever.

After the Earthquake had stopped, when the rescuers reached the ruins of a young woman’s house, they saw her dead body through the cracks. But her pose was somehow strange that she knelt on her knees like a person was worshipping(礼拜); her body was learning forward, and her two hands were supported by an object. The collapsed house had crashed her back and her head.

With so many difficulties, the leader of the rescue team put his hand through a narrow gap on the wall to reach the woman’s body. He was hoping that this woman could be still alive. However, the cold and stiff body told him that she had passed away for sure.

He and the rest of the team left this house and were going to search the next collapsed building. For some reasons, the team leader was driven by a compelling force to go back to the ruined house of the dead woman. Again, he knelt down and used his hand through the narrow cracks to search the little space under the dead body. Suddenly, he screamed with excitement, “A child! There is a child!”

The whole team worked together; carefully they removed the piles of ruined objects around the dead woman. There was a 3-month-old little boy wrapped in a flowery blanket under his mother’s dead body. Obviously, the woman had made a sacrifice for saving her son. When her house was falling, she used her body to make a cover to protect her son. The little boy was still sleeping peacefully when the team leader picked him up.

The medical doctor came quickly to examine the little boy. After he opened the blanket, he saw a cell phone. There was a text message on the screen. It said, “If you can survive, you must remember that I love you.” This cell phone was passed around from one hand to another. Everybody that read the message wept. “If you can survive, you must remember that I love you.” Such is the mother’s love for her child!

With this letter I want to give up on my kitchen duties,until there is clear evidence of mutual respect（互相尊重）within the home.

For years it has been thought that I will be the one to pick up the dropped socks,turn off lights,turn on the dishwasher.But I reached my breaking point this weekend.Everyone was happy when the dog found a piece of bone. He played with it,carried it around and dropped it.You all watched,took photos,had fun and then went away.I was left finishing the lunch tidy-up,my heart warmed by all your laughter.

Until I came across the piece of fruit in some dog hair in the middle of the carpet.You had all seen it and walked away.Did anyone really want to pick it up?I don't mind walking the dog and bathing the cat.We have chosen to look after them.I'm building a family,a home filled with love.

But look at you now! My husband,with your job growing,each step forward,you have more challenges to conquer（战胜）.My children,wonderful teenagers and young adults growing into yourselves,you are living your free lives.I love you all more than anything else in this world.But something went wrong—I became static（静止的）.I became less the heart of the family,more the caretaker.

We are a family,a unit that lives and loves in a mutually supportive way.I'm inviting you to step up and join in. My position is open for discussion but never again will I play the role of cook and bottle washer.I will continue to cook at times—I love to do so—but only when I have the time.I have a life to live as well.

Twenty years ago, the following news item probably wouldn’t have made much sense to most Americans.

Muslims in Iran went to the streets today to support an ayatollah①’s call for a revolution. Meanwhile, in Israel, Palestinian leaders urged support for the intifada②, ①leader ②struggle

These words come from Arabic, a language with which few Americans are familiar. Yet by 1990 these words were routinely used in both broadcast and print news. How did these words find their way into English?

Like all existing languages, English is continually changing. The adoption of foreign words into English vocabulary, called borrowing, is anything but a new phenomenon. In fact, it’s been going on from the time the language first began to take shape around A. D. 450. English has been borrowing words from the conquered(被征服者), trading partners, immigrants, and a variety of other sources.

So when the events in the Middle East commanded the world’s attention during the latter part of the twentieth century. English simply borrowed the words it needed to describe what was happening in that area. The more often such words were used, the less “foreign” they sounded. Eventually, these borrowed words came to be used routinely in speech and writing.

Borrowed vocabulary from foreign language is not the only source of new words in English. As fresh ideas evolve and innovative technology are developed, new English words are created to describe them. These words may be words borrowed(WB) from other languages, existing words taking on new meanings(EWNM), acronyms, blends, compounds, or newly coined words, as the following examples and the chart show.

Kwanza

borrowed from Swahili: seven-day African-American cultural festival

rap

old word, meaning to knock quickly, taking on a new meaning; a form of music

AIDS

acronym for acquired immune deficiency syndrome

exercycle

blend of existing words: exercise + bicycle

skateboard

compound of existing words

cellulite

new word for fatty deposits on the hips and legs, coined in 1971

In the next four lessons, you’ll be introduced to some of the history and mechanisms(体系)that have shaped and continued to influence the language we use. Whether the words we speak are borrowed or created, they show a vital feature of English---adaptability. English is alive.

1.What does the word “commanded” in the fourth paragraph probably mean?

A. Ordered B. Instructed

C. Controlled D. Drew

2.The word “mouse” may belong to an example of __________.

A. WB B. EWNM

C. Acronyms D. Blends

3.Where does this text probably come from?

A. A cultural section of a newspaper

B. A language book review

C. A language course advertisement

D. A language lesson book

4.Which of the following can best cover the main idea of the passage?

A. The language in the media is changing

B. English has been borrowing words

It is commonly believed that all over the world, boys and girls attend a mixed school, where they study together. But boys schools are the perfect place to teach young men to express their emotions（情感） and involve them in activities such as art, dance and music.

Always boys at single-sex schools were said to be more likely to get involved in cultural and artistic activities that helped develop their emotional expressiveness, rather than feeling they had to correspond to(和……相符) the ＂boy code＂ of hiding their emotions to be a ＂real man＂.

Surprisingly, the findings of the study go against received wisdom that boys do better when taught alongside girls.

George Carl, headmaster of Eton, warned that boys were being failed by the British education system because it had become too focused on girls. He criticized teachers for failing to recognize that boys are actually more emotional than girls.

The research argued that boys often perform badly in mixed schools because they become discouraged when girls do better earlier in speaking and reading skills.

But in single-sex schools teachers can adjust lessons to boys’ learning style, letting them move around the classroom and getting them to compete in teams to prevent boredom, wrote the study’s author, Abigail James, of the University of Virginia.

Teachers could encourage boys to enjoy reading and writing with ＂boy-focused＂ approaches such as themes and characters that appeal to them. Because boys generally have more acute eye, learn best through touch, and are physically more active, they need to be given ＂hands-on＂ lessons where they are allowed to walk around. ＂Boys in mixed schools view classical music as feminine(女性的) and prefer the modern genre (类型) in which violence and sexism are major themes,＂ James wrote.

Single-sex education also made it less likely that boys would feel that they had to be ＂masterful and in charge＂ in relationships. ＂In mixed schools, boys feel forced to act like men before they understand themselves well enough to know what that means,＂ the study reported.

1.Traditionally, in a mixed school ,boys __________.

A. behave more responsibly B. perform relatively better

C. grow up more healthily D. receive a better education

2.The writer argues that a single-sex school would __________.

A. encourage boys to express their emotions more freely

B. help boys to be more competitive in schools

C. force boys to be their emotions to be ＂real men＂

D. naturally strengthen boys’ traditional image of a man

3.In Abigail James’ opinion, one of the advantages of single-sex schools is ______.

A. boys can choose to learn whatever they are interested in

B. boys can focus on their lessons without being distracted

C. teaching can be adjusted to suiting the characteristics of boys

D. teaching can be designed to promote boys’ team spirit

4.The underlined word ＂acute＂ in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to ______ .

A. lovely B. serious

C. sharp D. dull
