To protect you and your fellow passengers, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA ) is required by law to inspect all checked baggage. As part of this process, some bags are opened and inspected. Your bag was among those selected for inspection.
During the inspection, your bag and its contents may have been searched for items forbidden by law such as fireworks, fuels, gunpowder, etc. At the completion of the inspection, the contents were returned to your bag, which was resealed(重新封口)with a “special” lock.
If the TSA screener was unable to open your bag for inspection because it was locked, the screener may have been forced to break the locks on your bag. TSA sincerely regrets having to do this, and has taken care to reseal your bag upon completion of inspection. However, TSA is not liable for damage to your locks resulting from this necessary security precaution.

解析試題分析:本文是一份宣傳頁(yè)。內(nèi)容是通知乘客所有的行李都要通過(guò)安檢,在安檢時(shí)要自行把包打開(kāi)進(jìn)行檢查,對(duì)于上鎖的行李安檢人員會(huì)借助于工具將其打開(kāi),但是對(duì)此造成的損害不負(fù)任何責(zé)任。此外宣傳單還提供了電話,email等方便乘客咨詢。
【小題1】推理判斷題。從文章第一段的法律規(guī)定內(nèi)容the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is required by law to inspect all checked baggage.和后面的敘述可知這是通知人們有關(guān)行李檢查事宜的。所以C選項(xiàng)正確。
【小題2】推理判斷題。通過(guò)文章首段的末句As part of this process, some bags are opened and inspected. Your bag was among those selected for inspection.可知宣傳單是發(fā)給那些行李需要檢查的人員的。故B選項(xiàng)正確。
【小題3】詞義猜測(cè)題。從文章第三段內(nèi)容可知,因?yàn)槭前匆?guī)定檢查行李,所以上鎖的行李如果需要被強(qiáng)行打開(kāi)的話,安檢部門(mén)不會(huì)負(fù)責(zé)任,所以A選項(xiàng)正確。
【小題4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)During the inspection, your bag and its contents may have been searched for items forbidden by law such as fireworks, fuels, gunpowder, etc.可知鞭炮,燃油和槍支是禁止帶上飛機(jī)的。所以C選項(xiàng)正確。

Everywhere I look outside my home I see people busy on their high-tech devices, while driving, walking, shopping, even sitting in toilets. When connected electronically, they are away from physical reality.
People have been influenced to become technology addicted. One survey reported that “addicted” was the word most commonly used by people to describe their relationship to iPad and similar devices. One study found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep, cigarettes and alcohol.
The main goal of technology companies is to get people to spend more money and time on their products, not to actually improve our quality of life. They have successfully created a cultural disease. Consumers willingly give up their freedom, money and time to catch up on the latest information, to keep pace with their peers or to appear modern.
I see people trapped in a pathological(病態(tài)的)relationship with time-sucking technology, where they serve technology more than technology serves them. I call this technology servitude. I am referring to a loss of personal freedom and independence because of uncontrolled consumption of many kinds of devices that eat up time and money. 
What is a healthy use of technology devices? That is the vital question. Who is really in charge of my life? That is what people need to ask themselves if we are to have any chance of breaking up false beliefs about their use of technology. When we can live happily without using so much technology for a day or a week, then we can regain control and personal freedom, become the master of technology and discover what there is to enjoy in life free of technology. Mae West is famous for proclaiming the wisdom that “too much of a good thing is wonderful.”  But it’s time to discover that it does not work for technology.
Richard Fernandez, an executive coach at Google acknowledged that “we can be swept away by our technologies.”  To break the grand digital connection people must consider how life long ago could be fantastic without today’s overused technology.
【小題1】The underlined word “allure” in Paragraph 2 probably means ______.

A.a(chǎn)dvantage B.a(chǎn)ttraction C. adaption D.a(chǎn)ttempt
【小題2】From the passage, technology companies aim to ______.
A.a(chǎn)ttract people to buy their products B.provide the latest information
C.improve people’s quality of life D.deal with cultural diseases
【小題3】It can be inferred from this passage that people ______.
A.consider too much technology wonderful
B.have realized the harm of high-tech devices
C.can regain freedom without high-tech devices
D.may enjoy life better without overused technology
【小題4】What’s the author’s attitude towards the overusing of high-tech devices?
A.Neutral. B.Sceptical. C.Disapproving. D.Sympathetic.

Jealousy (嫉妒) is a horrible feeling that weeds its way into your life and relationships before you know it. You might want something someone else has, or feel like they’re happier than you. It might seem like an uncontrollable emotion, but it’s truly not!
Remember your big accomplishments. If your coworker gets the promotion you wanted, it doesn’t mean you haven’t done great work. List out your accomplishments and think about how you got them and what you’ve done since then. You’ll quickly find that you’re just as worthy as the person you’re envying!

Stop letting jealousy eat you alive and realize that you can better spend that energy on furthering your own success and happiness.
Appreciate that others can do what you can’t. How boring would life be if everyone was the same? What if the entire population of your city was applying for your job, and they all had the same qualifications? Appreciate that everyone is different. Some people are better in powerful management positions, while maybe you’re better working with people.

College is a fresh start, and a chance to make new friends. These friends may become your lifelong friends, or the person you want to spend the rest of your life with. Whether you are going to a nearby college or the university far away from home, you are likely to meet new people wherever you are. Here are some advice to help you make friends at college.
Clearly, your classmates are all possible friends! Get to class early on the first day, and if you get there early enough, you will be in the room, or waiting outside it, with one other person, or a small group. A good casual opener would be to ask if you’re in the right classroom, then introduce yourself, and explain that you’re new, and a freshman. Do this at all of your classes, and you will have a group of friends that you can make study groups with, take notes for you when you’re absent or sick.
If you live in a dormitory, your hall will most likely have many fun activities to take part in. Take advantage ofthem, and go to as many as you can. Knowing your friends living in the same hall will also come in convenience because they will be the ones hosting and inviting you to parties that you will be missing out. Joining as many organizations as possible will also help you make new friends quickly. Parties are there to help students form close relationship with each other. Doing a team sport is another great idea. The best part of joining an organization is that you’ll find people who share your interests, and with whom you’ll therefore have a lot to talk about.

After students come home from a tiring day at school, they tend to worry a lot about their homework.
Whether students are working on English or chemistry homework, they are simply working on the assignment in order to get it done, attempting to memorize the concepts for the time being and do not absorb any of the information afterward. Students are wasting their time on insignificant assignments rather than effectively using that time to achieve other accomplishments. According to www.dailymail.com, many parents are concerned that homework is being assigned rather than being used to integrate (整合) what teachers are covering in the classroom. In their eyes, if less homework is assigned, students would have much less stress and could focus more on their passions and hobbies.
Homework gets in the way of participating in community service events as well as opportunities for getting a job or being a part of an extra-curricular activity. These responsibilities are important for teenagers to take on because they prepare the teenagers for the "real world." Without the proper exposure to work that is not school related, students will find themselves lost after they graduate. If homework were no longer given, students would have a lot more time to mature in other fields rather than being educated only on academics.
In spite of the fact that teachers want students to do better on tests and absorb the material that they are teaching, homework is not accomplishing its purpose. Because school is becoming increasingly more competitive and challenging, homework is becoming a setback rather than extra practice. Its removal would benefit the well being of teenagers as well as encourage them to get out in the "real world" and discover themselves instead of staring at a pile of assignments.
【小題1】Students are wasting their time on insignificant homework because

A.they are working on it carelessly and hurriedly
B.they attempt to get only part of the information memorized
C.they spend too much time doing it without understanding
D.they fail to take in the information after finishing it
【小題2】Many parents think that teachers should ______.
A.help students integrate the homework
B.simplify what they teach in the classroom
C.reduce homework to develop students' own interests
D.a(chǎn)ssign more effective homework for students
【小題3】From the third paragraph, we can infer that homework might ______.
A.leave students lack of job opportunities
B.make students lose the sense of responsibilities
C.weaken students' social adaptation ability
D.cause students to feel lost after graduation
【小題4】The author insists that homework should be ______.
A.made simpler and easier
B.completely cancelled
C.connected with social activities
D.switched over to subject competitions

The evidence for harmony may not be obvious in some families. But it seems that four out of five young people now get on well with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularly-held image of unhappy teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.
An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmonious than it had ever been in the past. “We were surprised by just how positive today’s young people seem to be about their families,” said one number of the research team. “They’re expected to be rebellious and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds: they want a car and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well. There’s more negotiation and discussion between parents and children, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process. They don’t want to rock the boat.”
So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends. “My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me,” says 17-year-old Daniel Lazall. “I always tell them when I’m going out clubbing. As long as they know what I’m doing, they’re fine with me.” Susan Crome, who is now 21, agrees. “Looking back on the last 10 years, there was a lot of what you could call negotiation. For example, as long as I’d done all my homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that.”
Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenage rebellion is not rooted in real facts. A researcher comments, “Our surprise that teenagers say they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in our social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time in the 1960s when everyone rebelled. The normal situation throughout history has been a smooth change from helping out with the family business to taking it over. ”
【小題1】What is the popular image of the teenagers today?

A.They worry about school.
B.They dislike living with their parents.
C.They have to be locked in to avoid troubles.
D.They quarrel a lot with other family members.
【小題2】The study shows that teenagers don’t want to __________.
A.share family responsibility
B.cause trouble in their families
C.go boating with their family
D.make family decisions
【小題3】Compared with parents of 30 years ago, today’s parents ____________.
A.go to clubs more often with their children
B.a(chǎn)re much stricter with their children
C.care less about their children’s life
D.give their children more freedom
【小題4】According to the writer, teenage rebellion __________.
A.may be a false belief
B.is common nowadays
C.existed only in the 1960s
D.resulted from changes in families
【小題5】What is the passage mainly about?
A.Negotiation in family.
B.Education in family.
C.Harmony in family.
D.Teenage trouble in family.

Is veg food healthier than non-veg food? I feel this is a very common topic that people speak on.Please give me your opinions on this topic.
Rao
12-18-08
So far as veg food is concerned, it is also proved to be a healthy and nutritious diet, but has very few items which can provide us with proteins, but if you see non-veg food like eggs, chicken, and many more, such foods have a large content of proteins in them.
Sai
12-19-08
Man basically is herbivorous(食草的). If we look at the animal kingdom
We can see that all the herbivorous animals have the similar dental(牙齒的)
structure, which clearly shows that the human being also ought to be vegetarian
by birth. It is only the living conditions that make man carnivorous(食肉的).
The vegetarian foods are easily digestible.
Santos
12-20-08
Non-veg food items are better than veg items. A healthy person requires complete diet and veg+ meat makes the diet complete. The only caution that needs to be taken is not to have non-veg items on a daily basis. Once in a week or couple of weeks will be best.
Krishna
01-03-09
When we eat non-veg, we are all veg by nature. The chicken that we eat feeds on grains, the mutton that we eat feeds on grass, and the fish that we eat feeds on simple plants. So non-veg food by logic(邏輯)is better and suited for hauman beings.
Khan
01-05-09
Non-veg food is equally important in our diet as it helps in many ways, especially fish and other seafood as fish contains omega 3 which makes our immune system(免疫系統(tǒng))stronger. Do you know that most of the veg food put together does not contain as much omega 3 as fish alone contains!

How many of us have heard that question, "Where was GOD when the World Trade Center(世貿(mào)中心) and the Pentagon(五角大樓) were attacked?" Well, I know where my GOD was the morning of September 11, 2001, and He was very busy!
He was trying to discourage anyone from taking these flights. Those four flights together held over 1000 passengers and there were only 266 aboard.
He was on 4 commercial flights giving frightened passengers the ability to stay calm. Not one of the family members who were called by a loved one on one of the hijacked(被劫持的) planes said that passengers were screaming in the background. On one of the flights he was giving strength to passengers to try to overtake the hijackers.
He was busy trying to create obstacles(阻礙) for employees at the World Trade Center. After all, only around 20,000 were at the towers when the first jet hit. Since the buildings held over 50,000 workers, this was a Miracle in itself. How many of the people who were employed at the World Trade Center told the media that they were late for work or they had traffic delays.
He was holding up 2-110 story buildings so that 2/3 of the workers could get out. I was so amazed that the top of the towers didn't fall when the jets crashed. And when they did fall, GOD made them fall inward, as many more lives would have been lost.
So when anyone asks, "Where was your GOD on September 11," you can say "everywhere"! And yes, although this is without a doubt the worst thing I have seen in my life, I see God's miracles in every bit of it. I can't imagine going through such a difficult time and not believing in GOD – life would be hopeless. So shines a good deed in a weary world!
【小題1】In what way the author tried to prove his point in the passage?

A.By telling a story.B.By giving examples.
C.By answering questions.D.By performing experiments.
【小題2】Which one of the following is TURE according to the passage?
A.There were three planes together hijacked in the attack.
B.The passengers on the planes were not frightened at all.
C.Many people working at WTC were delayed by traffic jams on Set. 11.
D.Many more people were killed in the buildings than we could imagine.
【小題3】What’s the meaning of the underlined word “Miracle” in the context?
A.something funnyB.something important
C.something reliableD.something unbelievable
【小題4】Which of the following can serve as the best title of the passage?
A. Everyone has a GOD.
