6.Every people has its own way of saying things,its own special expressions.Many everyday American expressions are based on colors.
Red is a hot color.Americans often use it to express heat.They may say they are red hot about something unfair.When they are red hot they are very angry about something.The small hot tasting peppers found in many Mexican foods are called red hots for their color and their fiery taste.Fast loud music is popular with many people.They may say the music is red hot,especially the kind called Dixieland jazz.
Pink is a lighter kind of red.People sometimes say they are in the pink when they are in good health.The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the twentieth century.It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink color that shows that they are in good health.
The color green is natural for trees and grass.But it is an unnatural color for humans.A person who has a sick feeling stomach may say she feels a little green.A passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green.
Sometimes a person may be upset because he does not have something as nice as a friend has,like a fast new car.That person may say he is green with envy.Some people are green with envy because a friend has more dollars or greenbacks.Dollars are called greenbacks because that is the color of the back side of the paper money.
The color black is used often in expressions.People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day.The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day.A blacklist is illegal now.But at one time,some businesses refused to employ people who were on a blacklist for belonging to unpopular organizations.
In some cases,colors describe a situation.A brown out is an expression for a reduction in electric power.Brown outs happen when there is too much demand for electricity.The electric system is unable to offer all the power needed in an area.Black outs are common during World War two.Officials would order all lights in a city turned off to make it difficult for enemy planes to find a target in the dark of night.

A.something unfair    
B.small hot-tasting peppers
C.the person who is very angry

16.Graduating from high school is one of the most satisfying,but for the first time,you are faced with the task of leading yourself to a successful future.Advice floods in from everybody in all directions and eventually you have obtained so much information about how to do well in college that it starts to become confusing.
    Many people say the best way to get through college with the best grades is to study most of the time and relax the rest of the time.While this is a great strategy,the whole social aspect of the college life is completely ignored.Social life plays a large role in overall well-being (福利).College offers the best chance you will ever have to surround yourself with great people for the rest of your 1ife.
You need to create schedules for yourself to manage your time.It is sometimes difficult for students to separate having fun and studying.If you want to make it through college,you must go to class.Students often fail out because they completely neglect(忽視) going to class and doing required assignments.And then there's the complete opposite side,the students who graduate with a 4.0 grade point average but have never been to a social event in their college career.The key to success is balance.What is the point of spending four years in the same place if you build no supportive relationships,good memories or funny stories?
Obviously college is not of total fun.You will sometimes need to lock yourself in your room and turn off your cell phone for a few hours to crack down on loaded projects and abandon all contact from the outside world.But after you are finished with the project,you should reward yourself by relaxing and having a good time.As long as there is a good balance of work and play,you should have few problems.To be successful,you need to create your own unique schedule.If one thing doesn't work,shift your schedule around until it does.When you and your best friends finally graduate,you can remember all the great times you've had together,and talk about how college wasn't as difficult as you once thought it was going to be.

14.In the computer age,most of us take a broadband(寬帶)Internet connection for granted.Whether cable or mobile broadband,today's connections are many times faster than those in the early days.Videos play smoothly,complex websites load quickly,and files(檔案文件)download much faster than ten years ago.And the files are much bigger too.
There's a catch,of course:You have to live near enough to a major city to get broadband Internet.If you don't,it's slow dial-up access for you.And for those living really far out,there may be no Internet access at all.
Technology experts often talk about the"last mile"problem,which refers to the difficulty of bringing Internet access to remote locations.In cities and suburbs(郊區(qū)),it's relatively easy to provide access for everyone.It is much more difficult to deliver access to those living far from cities,especially in developing countries.Internet service providers,for their part,have been reluctant to provide access to sparsely (稀疏地) populated areas.The handful of Internet users they would reach wouldn't cover the expense.
But every year,technological advancements allow of more and more Internet users.Most broadband connections today run over existing cable TV and telephone lines although these technologies aren't available everywhere.
Some companies have delivered the Internet over standard power lines.Advancements in cheaper,more efficient fiber optics cables (光纖電纜) promise to bring extremely fast Internet connections to more users.
Still,the"last mile"problem remains hard to deal with.There will always be somewhere that doesn't have an affordable broadband connection.But someday that might not matter.If the rapid progress in cell phone technology is any indication (跡象),it may not be too long before an Internet connection simply follows you wherever you go.
68.The underlined part"a catch"(in Paragraph 2)probably means"D".
A.a(chǎn) rare challenge                 B.a(chǎn) desirable plan
C.a(chǎn)n efficient device              D.a(chǎn) hidden problem
69.What can we know from the third paragraph?D
A.Internet connection has not been popular in most cities.
B.Internet service providers care about rural(農(nóng)村的)customers.
C.Computer is popular in developing countries.
D.It is hard to bring Internet access to users in remote areas.
70.Paragraph 4 mainly tells us that technological advancementsC.
A.make TV and telephone available everywhere
B.bring great change to people's everyday life
C.make it possible for more people to use the Internet
D.bring faster Internet connections to users
71.What may eventually settle the"last mile"problem?D
A.The broadband connection's getting faster.
B.More and more Internet users.
C.more and more Internet connections.
D.The rapid progress in cell phone technology.

With the development of people's living condition,more and more people possess their own cars.Some think it is good to own a car.For instance,it's convenient,fast and comfortable means of transportation.Moreover,it shows that people were becoming richer and the country is much more stronger,which also makes relative businesses and industries develop faster.However,others have different opinions,think that cars give up waste gases and pollute the environment around.Too much cars will have some bad effects,such as more accidents and crowded.Besides,lacking parking lots is another big problem.As far as I'm concerned,we ought to think careful before buying cars.As if we have cars,we may use them less.
