26、Group buying websites are getting popular in China since people like to spend their money more wisely. Thus it is not surprising to see that the number of such websites is growing. However, consumers (消费者) are facing a problem — too much information. They have to surf many sites to know about the best offer. Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a single place that combined (组合) all the information and presented it to the users so that they could easily make a better shopping decision? Ronald Li recognized this was a good business opportunity and he started to do some research. Ronald Li found that there was no such app in the market at that time. He decided to develop one himself.

Ronald Li knew that he had to step up the speed. The market is all about offering the right solution at the right time. He had to learn from other sites so as to develop one that provided great user experience. He had to put himself in the buyer’s shoes so as to know what they want. The process was not without difficulties. The most challenging one was the automatic (自动的) system that is required to actively search the information from the various group buying sites. Besides, Ronald Li was aware that some other people were starting to work on it. Eventually, he spent about two weeks on the development and had it done.

The app was then presented to Apple. It took a few days to get approved (获准). The app finally came into the market on 18 February. On 24 February, it reached the number one position in the list of Top Three iPhone Apps. In just three days, it has achieved over 30 thousand downloads.

【1】What problem are consumers facing?

A．They spend too much money online.

B．They have to surf the Internet every day.

C．They don’t know which websites to trust.

D．They are puzzled by too much information.

【2】What is the purpose of Ronald Li’s app?

A．To help people do smarter online shopping.

B．To make his company more popular in China.

C．To set up a better selling market on the Internet.

D．To attract people to buy more things with the app.

【3】What is the most difficult for developing the app?

A．Market competition.

B．Financial pressure.

C．Automatic searching system.

D．Poor working experience.

【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A．The app was expensive.

B．The app updated slowly.

C．Ronald succeeded at last.

D．Ronald created 3 iPhone apps.

27、Women have been making scientific discoveries since ancient times. Twelve women have won the Nobel Prize for Science, one of the highest honors in the world. Some women scientists never married, some worked with their husbands, and others raised large families. It has been difficult for women to be successful scientists.

In the early 1800s in England, Mary Anning became one of the first women recognized for her discoveries about the ancient history of the earth. Mary and her father collected fossils (化石) in their village on the south coast of Great Britain. Fossils are parts of plants or animals that have been saved in rocks for millions of years.

When she was only twelve years old, Mary became the first person to find the almost complete skeletons (骨架) of several animals that no longer existed on the earth. She didn't become famous for her discoveries at that time because she often sold her fossils to get money to support her family.

In 1891, a young Polish woman named Marie Sklodowska traveled to Paris to study physics. She did so because she could not get a college education in Poland. She began working in the laboratory of a man named Pierre Curie. Marie and Pierre Curie got married and made many discoveries together. They received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903 along with another scientist. Marie Curie became the first person to be awarded a second Noble Prize in 1911, this time for Chemistry. Marie Curie was one of the few women at the time who became famous as a scientist.

A．have more opportunities to become successful

B．can not get the highest honors in the world

28、English songs have been very popular for people around the world for many decades. Songs from Elvis Presley to Ricky Martin, from the Beatles to Eminem and from Natalie Cole to Britney Spears have all been enjoyed by people around the world, even for people who don’t speak English, and even for people who speak zero English.

From my experience, some people listen to English songs for 20-30 years but still don’t achieve any good English skills. Some people choose English songs to be their main learning method, but most of them fail.

Listening to English songs does not help you to speak English fluently. It does help you gain some vocabulary, but most of these words are unusual ones that you don’t use in everyday life. You won’t learn the sentence “It is a difficult project. We really need to meet the deadline.” in any English songs. All you will hear are love, passion, affection, hate and blue, for the feeling, not the color.

People like using English songs to practice English skills because it’s easy and enjoyable. They think that sitting in the car listening to English songs day after day will improve their English skills. It actually will not.

You will definitely not improve your listening skills because normal people don’t speak with a tune. People don’t talk like Eminem’s songs. You can’t get yourself familiar with English pronunciation or accent just from listening to English songs. The words that they pronounce in the songs are not the words that you will hear in your everyday life. They can even confuse you more about how English is pronounced.

I would fully encourage you to watch English movies and listen to radio news or other normal talks, but not music. Of course, you can consume it for fun but not with the aim of improving your English skills. Having good English skills is not that easy. Remember you should work hard to improve your English step by step.

【1】According to the passage, listening to English songs can help you _____

A. improve your English grammar

B. speak English more fluently

C. gain the skills of writing

D. learn more new words

【2】Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Most people think it is convenient to learn English by listening to English songs.

B. It’s hard for people to improve their listening skills by listening to English songs.

C. It’s a good idea to learn to speak with an English accent by listening to English songs.

D. It’s rare to hear normal people speak English like they are singing.

【3】What can we learn about the words in English songs?

A. Most of them are vivid and interesting.

B. They are seldom used in people’s everyday life.

C. English learners should learn more of them.

D. They can help people improve their pronunciation.

【4】 It can be inferred from the passage that the writer may be _____.

A. an experienced English learner

B. a well-known pop singer

C. a Chinese music fan

D. an American teacher

29、Why do we laugh at movies like Office Space or shows like The Office? What’s so funny about work?

Steve from California shared. “During a meeting, my boss praised our colleague, saying how handsome he is. The team felt awkwardly surprised, until my boss corrected, ‘No — it’s great how hands-on he is!’ Everyone laughed, easing the tense atmosphere from the meeting. ‘Well, he is handsome, too!’ I defended jokingly, and we al laughed again!”

Office may seem like a serious place. But, according to a study, introducing some laughter into work life can contribute to our well-being and productivity. In fact, finding humor is one of the practices we teach students in our online course. The funny stories they shared remind us that a little playfulness goes a long way toward a more enjoyable work life.

Laughter serves to create and strengthen social bonds in humans — as well as in our chimp (黑猩猩) ancestors. One evolutionary theory claims that laughter first appeared in these ancestors as a response to signal that they are safe at present and a relief to others after something unexpected occurs. This also has implications in modern times, and it may explain why colleagues who laugh more together tend to enjoy a more safe or comfortable environment and a greater sense of unity among teams.

Feeling comfortable in our work environment can enable us to think openly and take risks — a basis for finding creative solutions at work, contributing to our productivity. According to one study, managers who use humor at work are more likely to reach their unit’s target goals. What’s more, employees who say that their manager “makes us laugh at ourselves when we are too serious” or “uses humor to take the edge off during stressful periods” are more likely to trust their manager, and feel a sense of belonging at work.

Of course, humor isn’t always called for — particularly if it’s a distraction from our tasks or keeps us from seeing and addressing real problems at work. But in many situations, sharing jokes with colleagues and finding humor in the chaos can make work a little more fun.

【1】What can we learn from Steve’s sharing in the second paragraph?

A．The meeting was always filled with laughter.

B．He helped relieve tension during the meeting.

C．The team was greatly frightened at his words.

D．The boss thought his colleague quite handsome.

【2】What is the original function of laughter among our chimp ancestors?

A．To create a comfortable atmosphere.

B．To better their bonds with humans.

C．To unite other members in the team.

D．To inform partners of their present safety.

【3】What is the benefit of a manager’s using humor at work?

A．The company is likely to make more profits.

B．The company will attract more job applicants.

C．The employees will feel more included at work.

D．The employees are more likely to work overtime.

【4】What can be the best title for the text?

A．How to Strengthen Our Sense of Humor

B．How to Create a Fun Work Environment

C．How Humor Can Improve Our Work Life

D．How Important Being a Humorous Worker Is

30、How Facebook Programmed Our Relatives

Three years ago, on his birthday, a law professor watched his e-mail inbox as usual. But it was filled with Facebook notifications (通告) ________ that friends had posted messages on his wall. The messages made him sad. The blocked inbox was ________, but what really upset him was having disclosed his birth date to Facebook in the first place. It’s not necessary for social networking to comply with (遵守) privacy laws, as some people ________ believe. He hadn’t paid much attention when he signed up—as with most electronic contracts, there was no room for negotiation about terms. He ________ Facebook’s instructions, entered the data and clicked a button.

A few days later, the law professor decided to change the birth date on his Facebook profile to ________ the same situation next year. But when the fake date rolled around, his inbox again was flooded with Facebook notifications. Two of the messages were from close relatives, one of whom he had spoken with on the phone on his actual birthday! How could she not realize that the date was ________?

Our hypothesis (假设): she’d been programmed!

That law professor was one of us, and it confirmed his ________ that most people respond ________ to Facebook’s prompts (提示) to provide information or contact a friend without really thinking much about it. That’s because digital networked technologies are engineering humans to behave like simple stimulus-response machines.

Social media plays a tremendous role in modern life. Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter have become the primary ways of keeping in touch with friends, family, classmates and colleagues. To date, ________, researchers have not fully explored the degree to which these platforms are literally programming human responses. Social media platforms encode a range of social ________: Facebook notifies us when it is time to wish our friends a happy birthday; LinkedIn prompts us to congratulate contacts on their work anniversaries. As a result, social interactions are often ________ to the click of a button.

Facebook may increase the number of people to whom we wish a happy birthday with a few clicks of a button; it’s not as if we remember the birth dates of that high school classmate or distant cousin. But if it becomes ________ behavior, is it even meaningful? As for people who aren’t on Facebook or don’t post their birth dates publicly, the ________ they exact over their data comes at a cost: they don’t receive scores of well-wishes from far-flung contacts. ________, it’s still nice to be thought of, even if just once a year.

Digital platforms are ________ what it means to be human, and we can’t rely on the platforms to police or research ourselves. In the meantime, when your birthday rolls around, enjoy the warm feelings from friends sending their regards—but remember that they don’t know when your birthday really is any more than you do theirs.
