阅读理解: 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项。
Imagine you’re at a party full of strangers. You’re nervous. Who are these people? How do you start a conversation? Fortunately, you’ve got a thing that sends out energy at tiny chips in everyone’s name tag (标签). The chips send back name, job, hobbies, and the time available for meeting-whatever. Making new friends becomes simple
This hasn’t quite happened in real life. But the world is already experiencing a revolution using RFID technology.
An RFID tag with a tiny chip can be fixed in a product, under your pet’s skin, even under your own skin. Passive RFID tags have no energy source-batteries because they do not need it. The energy comes from the reader, a scanning device, that sends out energy (for example, radio waves) that starts up the tag immediately.
Such a tag carries information specific to that object, and the data can be updated. Already, RFID technology is used for recognizing each car or truck on the road and it might appear in your passport. Doctors can put a tiny chip under the skin that will help locate and obtain a patient’s medical records. At a nightclub in Paris or in New York the same chip gets you into the VIP (very important person) section and pays for the bill with the wave of an arm.
Take a step back:10 or 12 years ago,you would have heard about the coming age of computing. One example always seemed to surface: Your refrigerator would know when you needed to buy more milk. The concept was that computer chips could be put everywhere and send information in a smart network that would make ordinary life simpler
RFID tags are a small part of this phenomenon. “The world is going to be a loosely coupled set of individual small devices, connected wirelessly,” predicts Dr.J.Reich. Human right supporters are nervous about the possibilities of such technology. It goes too far tracking school kids through RFID tags, they say. We imagine a world in which a beer company could find out not only when you bought a beer but also when you drank it. And how many beers. Accompanied by how many biscuits. w*w*When Marconi invented radio, he thought it would be used for ship-to-shore communication. Not for pop music. Who knows how RFID and related technologies will be used in the future. Here’s a wild guess: Not for buying milk.

3. Passive RFID tags chiefly consist of .
A. scanning devices B. radio waves C. batteries D. chips
4. Why are some people worried about RFID technology?
A. Because children will be tracked by strangers.
B. Because market competition will become more fierce.
C. Because their private lives will be greatly affected.
D. Because customers will be forced to buy more products.
5. The last paragraph implies that RFID technology .
A. will not be used for such matters as buying milk
B. will be widely used, including for buying milk
C. will be limited to communication uses

1.________
Answer:If you are in a desert environment, try to build an underground shade shelter to avoid prolonged sun exposure, obviously only for hot climates.So you can be more comfortable in cooler temperatures to avoid sweating.If your environment is damp, use branches laid and criss-crossed on top of one another to create a solid and dry foundation for an open bed pad.Raise the foundation above ground level as much as possible.
2.________
Answer:Yes, I think so.For example, if you think the best survival course of action is to look for help and civilization, don't wait 4 or 5 days before you come to this conclusion.Take action on the 1st or 2nd day if possible while you still have strength and endurance working for you.
3.________
Answer:Use dry wood and sticks to start your fire.Fire is started by using three kinds of wood:tinder, kindling, and fuel.Tinder is any kind of flammable wood shavings, usually light and wispy.You can take two pieces of dry wood, sharpen one of them and use it to drill into the other piece.Place any highly flammable objects you can find next to the drill bit.The moment the flammable object catches a spark, use a rock to swiftly tip the object onto a nest of leaves and little branches.
4.________
Answer:Get an ordinary block of wood and hit it with a rock repeatedly until the wood sharpens.In this case, use the rock as your sharpener.You could also take a rock and break off some of the edges and then use another rock and some water like a wet stone and sharpen.In an ideal situation, obsidian stone would be used for its infamous sharpness.
5.________
Answer:Use two more sticks to hold up a “teepee”, similar to your shelter.Place an item of your choice you think an animal will come after, if you're lucky, the animal will be trapped.Dig a hole in the ground about 2m-3m deep and 1m-2m across.Take two thin branches and place them criss-crossed across the hole.Cover it with leaves and put something the animals like to eat.You can also put a few wooden spikes sharpened by your knife at the bottom.Don't forget to build a ladder or you might not be able to climb out of the hole.
