The town I live in is about to put cameras at all traffic lights to catch people who run red lights．It   36   me of how many people I’ve seen who take the yellow light as a   37   to go faster．I also can’t understand why people don’t move when the traffic light has turned green．Above all, there are those   38   situations in which someone doesn’t even   39   that the light turns red, and just keeps going．That is why so many   40   happen! All these situations make me   41__    the purpose of traffic lights．
42   , it’s even more frightening to imagine letting people make their own decisions at   __43   crossroads．Do the biggest cars get to go first? Who decides who goes next? So I guess I do like the idea of a system to   44   traffic．And I’ll do my best to   45   the traffic rules: to go, to be cautious, and to stop when I’m   46   to．
It occurs to me that my   47   have done much the same for me   48   teaching me how to live．They have given me many   49   lights: to get along well with others, to listen and talk to them, to help others, and to   50   with joy and purpose．They have also given me some red lights   51   my life goes astray（誤入歧途）: not to be greedy, to keep my temper, and to control my desires．And there   52   have been some yellow caution lights: to watch how much I drink, to keep control of my behavior, and to   53    school regularly and work hard．
If I obey these rules, my life will be as   54   as it can be．Just as I’m wise to pay attention to the traffic lights when I’m walking across the street, I’m wise to pay attention to the“   55__ signals” given to me by my parents．

在街上走的時候，在十字路口有紅綠燈給我們提示是否繼續(xù)前進。同樣，在生活中我們的父母也給我們發(fā)出做人、做事的信號燈。
小題1:C。在十字路口安裝攝像頭一事使我想起很多人把黃燈當作快速通過的信號燈。Remind“提醒，使想起”。
小題1:B。參見上題解析。Signal“信號燈”。
小題1:C。更重要的是，還有一些危險的情況（dangerous situation）。根據(jù)“he light turns red, and just keeps going”可知答案為C。
小題1:A。有人甚至不注意（notice）紅燈，只管往前走。
小題1:D。這就是很多交通事故（accidents）發(fā)生的原因。
小題1:B。所有的這些情況使我想知道（wonder about）設置交通信號燈的目的是什么。
小題1:D。然而（However），我們設想，如果在擁擠（crowded）十字路口讓人們自己決定誰先通過，那會是什么樣的情形。
小題1:C。見上題解析。
小題1: A。所以，我認為我們的確需要有一套制度來控制（control）交通。
小題1: B。我會盡力遵守（obey）交通規(guī)則。
小題1:A。該走則走，該小心要小心，該停則停。Be supposed to do sth.“應該做某事”。
小題1: D。根據(jù)本文最后一句中的“given to me by my parents”可知是“父母教育我如何做人”。
小題1: C。我的父母在教育我如何生活方面也是這樣的。In terms of“就……而言，從……方面”。
小題1:B。根據(jù)下文的They have also given me some red lights并結合空后的內容可知，父母教育我們如何與他人相處、如何傾聽和與別人交談、如何幫助別人……這好像是給我們的綠燈的信號，讓我們順利地前行。
小題1:A。如何生活開心并擁有目標。
小題1:C。根據(jù)“父母告誡我不要貪婪、控制脾氣、控制欲蠼”可知，這就像是紅燈，在我誤人歧途之前(before)提醒我。
小題1:D。下文談到的是一些我需要小心謹慎處理的事情，就像是黃燈。這里用also表示附加或者遞進關系。
小題1:B。要按時上學，努力工作。attend school“上學”，同go to school。
小題1:A。如果我遵守規(guī)則，我的生活就會非常美好(good)。
小題1:C。我還要注意父母給我發(fā)出的那些人生的信號燈(1ife signals)。

It was a cold winter morning. Half asleep at the train station, I stared into the distance,   36   for the train to take me to my   37   in Boston. The word was quiet. The very few people on the street kept to themselves,   38   their steaming cups of coffee.
Reaching into my pocket as the   39  was approaching, my numb hand searched for the $ 20 bill to pay my fare. The pocket was   40  ! I searched through my bag and then I felt   41  . Unless the money dropped from the sky, I’d be   42   there.
“What’s the matter?” A short, elderly man stood before me.
“Oh, nothing…. Well, I   43   my money and now I can’t pay for the ticket. I’m going to   44   my match class, and the train is leaving.”
“Here, use this.”
The man held a $ 20 bill. I looked up,   45  . People just didn’t do that anymore. Everyone worried about their own   46  , rarely stopping to think about others, especially teenage strangers.
“Thank you, but no, I can’t.”
“  47  it – go!” The man pushed me   48   the train.  I bought a round – trip ticket, and he refused the change I   49  to give him back. I did not know what to say – a million thoughts raced through my mind, yet I stood   50  .
For the train ride I was silent. I began to see the world through   51  eyes. That man made a difference with such a simple   52  .
A week later I was at the train station again, with an extra $ 20   53  I saw the man. And there he was.
“excuse me, sir, I believe I owe you this.” I   54  the money into his hand.
Failing to refuse, he said, “Just remember to do the same for someone in your shoes someday.” I smiled, content.
The elderly man is my hero. For many, heroes are famous, but my hero is a   55  stranger who taught me a lesson in life. I will never forget his kindness.

I felt that I needed to do something to 40 the boredom, so I tried to find something in his lecture to ask him, 41 me to pay attention rather than letting my eyes close. The first time 42 I raised my hand, he was surprised but was obviously 43 to have a question to answer. I continued to do this every day. The professor seemed to become a bit more 44 and some other students even joined in. In fact, his answers were always 45. In this way, I learned quite a lot and realized the professor was indeed a/an 46 in his field.
On the last day of class we 47 our books and headed out. The professor stepped directly in front of me, with obvious 48, putting out his hand. He said, “49 you for making my class so interesting,” shaking my hand and smiling. I was so 50. To me, it had been a pleasant way to 51 the time in his lesson.

It is not a good idea to stop the actor Richard Griffiths in the middle of a play．During the past year he has stopped performances many times at the National Theatre when mobile phones rang, and he threw out one member of the audience because she failed to turn off her phone．
So when a mobile rang out for the third time during his performance in Alan Bennett’s The History Boys, he spoke angrily to the theatergoer （愛看戲的人）, “I am not going to compete with these electronic devices （裝置）．”
Griffiths’ actions led to a debate in the UK theatre world over whether phones should be forbidden by law from British theatres, too．Actors have already asked the government to legalise （使合法化） the use of an electronic device that stops mobile phone signals in theatres．
Technology companies have “stopping” devices that send out a high-powered signal on the same frequency （頻率） as a mobile phone, stopping the mobile phone signal．
However, these are forbidden in many countries because they might stop emergency calls from being made．
Rosemary Squire, president of the Society of West End Theatre, said, “Phones are one of the biggest problems theatres face．We should look at equipment that could stop phones or make a London-wide theatre rule．”
Nick Allott, the managing director of Sir Cameron Mackintosh’s theatre group, said, “We would all welcome some ways of stopping ringing phones but doctors and emergency workers need to be connected in a theatre and we mustn’t stop that．” What can we do to solve the problem?
小題1:What can we infer from the second paragraph?
A．Surely Griffiths did better than mobile phones in the theatre．
B．Griffiths didn’t want mobile phones to affect his performance．
C．Griffiths was jealous that mobile phones attracted the audience’s attention．
D．Griffiths taught theatergoers a lesson in the performance as a teacher．
小題2:According to the passage, “stopping” devices ______．
A．have the same functions as mobile phones
B．cause the biggest problem theatres have to face
C．prevent the mobile phones signals from being received
D．help doctors or emergency workers receive emergency calls
小題3:According to Nick Allott, ______．
A．“stopping” devices can make the sound of mobile phones disappear
B．no one except doctors and emergency workers should have mobile phones
C．phones are one of the biggest problems theatres face
D．stopping phones in theatres has some side effects
小題4:What will probably be talked about following the last paragraph?
A．Griffiths’ next performance in theatres．
B．The opinions the public has about the problem．
C．The ways to solve the cellphone problem in public places．
D．The side effects mobile phones have on people．

For many people, the name Baskin-Robbins is linked to sweet memories of eating ice cream．Irvine Robbins, who helped create this famous company, died in May at the age of ninety．His life's work of making fun and exciting ice cream flavors changed the way Americans enjoy this food．
Irvine Robbins opened his first ice cream store in 1945 in California．At the time, there were no stores that sold only ice cream．His sister's husband, Burton Baskin, also opened his own ice cream stores．
In 1948 they combined their six stores into one business．Baskin and Robbins realized that they were too busy to operate each store well．So, they decided to sell part of each operation to the manager of that store．This permitted the company to grow quickly．

Robbins and Baskin sold "Lunar Cheesecake" the day after astronauts landed on the moon in 1969．Other flavors included "ChaChaCha", for cherry chocolate chip, and Robbins' personal favorite "Jamoca Almond Fudge"．They said: "We sell fun, not just ice cream．"
By 1967, there were 500 Baskin-Robbins stores in the United States．The business partners sold their company that year．Today, there are more than 5,800 Baskin-Robbins stores around the world．
