英 语 试 题第一节（共1 5小题：每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。ASome of the most painful moments I spend as a vet (兽医 ) are those spent with my customers assisting my animal patients from this world to the next. Making this final decision is not easy, and I have often felt powerless to comfort the sorrowful owners.That was before I met Shane.I had been called to examine a ten-year-old dog named Belker who had developed a serious health problem. The dog's owner—Ron, his wife, Lisa, and their little boy, Shane—were hoping for a miracle (奇迹). But I told the family there were no miracles left for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia (安乐死) for the old dog in their home. As we made the arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for the four-year-old Shane to observe the euthanasia. They felt Shane could leam something from the experience. Shane seemed so calm, patting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on.A few minutes later, Belker slipped peacefully away. The little boy seemed to accept Belker's death without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a little while after Belker's death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives.Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up: "I know why."Shocked, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next astonished me. I'd never heard a more comforting explanation.He said, "Everybody is born so they can learn how to live a good life: like loving everybody and being nice, right?" The four-year-old continued, "Well, animals already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long."21. Shane's parents wanted Shane to witness the euthanasia mainly because ____.A. they hoped he could gain something from itB. they knew he hated to part with BelkerC. they wanted him to remember Belker foreverD. they intended him to learn to carry out euthanasia22. What can we learn from the
12345678910下一页e third paragraph?A. Belker got sick mainly because of lack of care.B. There was no hope for Belker to recover but to suffer.C. Shane didn't feel sad about Belker's death.D. Belker didn't want to live any longer because of the pain.23. We can infer from the underlined sentence that____.A. words failed the vet when he tried to comfort Belker's familyB. the vet was familiar with the feelings of Belker's familyC. the vet would rather not perform the euthanasiaD. the vet's throat was uncomfortable with Belker's family around24. What would the author say about Shane?A. He knew little about animal lives.B. He felt unexpected about Belker's death.C. He had a unique opinion about life. D. He was an outgoing and warm-hearted boy.BInstagram is containing so many photos of food—now a pop-up diner in London is taking advantage of this new trend by letting people settle the bill for their meals simply by uploading photos of their dishes to social networks.I always thought people's taking pictures of their food was kind of silly, but at this new pop-up restaurant in the UK, I'd probably do it too. 'The Picture House' is the world's first pay-by-photo restaurant—you order, click a photo of the food, share on Instagram and eat for free!The restaurant belongs to frozen food giant (巨人) Birds Eye, who came up with the idea to cash in on people's addiction with photographing food and sharing the pictures online. They conducted a survey and found out that more than half of the British population regularly took pictures of their meals. So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range.The pop-up diner was open in Soho, London for three days in May, and is now moving to other major UK cities. They serve two-course meals that customers don't have to pay for, if they photo and Instagram it.The restaurant is a part of Birds Eye's 'Food for Life' campaign, a new marketing project that aims at changing the way people look at frozen food. "Taking photos
12345678910下一页of food enables people to show off and to share their mealtime moments—from the everyday to the special," said marketing director Margaret Jobling.The reaction to The Picture House has been great so far. And the pay-by-picture concept has proven to be an effective way. Alternative payment methods are actually gaining popularity among a lot of businesses. Last year, in a cafe in Germany customers pay by how much time they spend there, not by what they eat.25. Instagram probably is ____.A. a restaurant free of chargeB. a campaign of "Food for Life"C. a new marketing projectD. a program used to share photos26. What's the author's attitude to this new trend?A. Opposed. B. Interested. C. Confused. D. Unconcerned.27. 'The Picture House' encourages sharing photos of its food to ____.A. attract more customers B. raise the price of frozen foodC. create a new social media trend D. reward the regular customers28. Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage?A. No Need to Pay. B. The Pop-up Diner.C. Pay by Picture. D. Food for Life.CPreparations are underway around the world for Chinese New Year (Feb 19) and celebrations in China will be mirrored across the planet wherever the Chinese Diaspora (华侨) calls home. Here are some Chinatowns for those outside of China wishing to mark the day.LondonAlthough it may not be as large or as long-built as others, having only become a center for the Chinese community during the 1950s, London's Chinatown is a perfectly formed little firework that knows how to see in the year with a bang. Decorated with red lanterns (灯笼), previous years have seen shows with acrobatics (杂技), martial arts (武术), dance and opera nearby.San FranciscoSan Francisco's Chinatown is perhaps the most famous in the United States. The city was the main entry-point for Chinese who had crossed the Pacific to the USA during the early 19th century. Between the Grant Avenue andthe Stockton Street, this historic area is a local treasure,
12345678910下一页attracting more visitors per year than the Golden Gate Bridge.BangkokWith a more than 100-year-old history, the Thai capital's Chinatown contains complex streets offering all kinds of tasty treats, clothes, toys and antiques. Sunday market days are such a good time to get the full atmosphere of the neighborhood. The area is also known for its gold dealers, whose shops line the road.MauritiusFound in Port Louis, this Mauritian Chinatown shows the island nation's rich multicultural diversity. Established in the early years of the 20th century by settlers from China, its tiny shops and restaurants serve locals and visitors. During the Chinese Spring Festival, the most exciting sight is the Dragon Dances on Rue Royale when Chinese musicians and dancers perform the traditional Lion dances through the streets.29. According to the text, which of the following has the longest history?A. London's Chinatown. B. Bangkok's Chinatown.C. Mauritius's Chinatown. D. San Francisco's Chinatown.30. What's special about Bangkok's Chinatown?A. It is crowded with Chinese restaurants. B. It is well-known for its gold business.C. It was the major entrance for the Chinese. D. It is where you can enjoy fireworks.31. If you want to enjoy the Dragon Dances, you can go to ____.A. Rue Royale in Port Louis, Mauritius B. the Sunday market in BangkokC. the Grant Avenue in San Francisco D. the Chinese community in LondonDHybrid cars （混合动力车） are cars that run on petrol and electricity. They have a small standard petrol engine and a battery (电池) electric motor to provide electric power.There are some differences between different models of hybrid cars, but the general principle is that the car runs on petrol, and the electric motor kicks in when additional power is required, for example, when going uphill or accelerating. In some hybrid cars the petrol engine turns itself off when not needed, for example when the car has stopped at traffic light, keeping only the electric engine running
12345678910下一页.Conventional cars have large engines to deal with driving uphill and accelerating. Hybrid cars have much smaller petrol engines, improved by electric motors when needed, so they use less petrol. Another way that fuel consumption is cut is by a system of "regenerative (再生的) braking". The electric motor is used to slow down the car, rather than conventional brakes. The energy produced by slowing the car is changed into electrical power, which is automatically stored in the battery. In effect, the battery recharges when you brake. In conventional cars the energy produced when braking is wasted.In 1928 Ferdinand Porsche built an experimental hybrid car. The first mass-produced hybrid car, the Toyota Prius, came out in Japan at the end of 1997. However, hybrid cars became available in the USA only in 1999. As they use less fuel, hybrid cars are cheaper to run. There are also many voices in place to encourage people to buy them. In some countries, hybrid car owners pay a lower rate of tax, and don't have to pay on certain roads. In some cities, hybrid cars are allowed to park for free.32. Hybrid cars consume less energy than conventional cars because hybrid cars _____.A. have large engines to deal with acceleratingB. have conventional brakes to slow down the carC. have electric power to assist when neededD. have no energy consumption when stopping33. In regenerative braking, _____.A. energy wasted in conventional cars is stored in the batteryB. the conventional brakes are used to slow down the carC. the battery charges itself when the car is acceleratingD. the petrol engine is usually turned off automatically34. From the last paragraph we can learn that Hybrid cars ____.A. were first available in the USA B. will gain more popularityC. free their owners from tax D. are free to park anywhere in the city35. The main purpose of this text is to_____.A. show haw hybrid cars slow down B. encourage people to buy hybrid carsC. inform people a kind of energy-savin

12345678910下一页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（互动）. 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（自动化）, the alienation index（疏远指数） 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.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 email to do a job meant for conversation. Or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn't really have time to talk. The industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier ...or at least facilitating my antisocial instincts.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.
