Attention STARBUCKS 
Owners of Stainless Steel Travel Mug
Mug lid Recall---16 oz Stainless Steel Travel Mug
We’ve recognized a fault at the cup. The fault might cause some lids to lift slightly from the body of the mug, and could possibly account for injury from hot liquid leaking(漏). So, we have given a lid recall notice immediately. The notice is only about STARBUCKS 16 oz Stainless Steel Travel Mugs which were sold between November 2012 and February 2013. The bottom of the mug is printed with “ThermoSServ”, the distributor’s name. There is not any printing on the mug handle.
At STARBUCKS, customers’ safety is valued above anything else. Therefore, no matter whether your lid is leaking , for your safety, we request you bring your mug to your nearest STARBUCKS ( NOT including Esso STARBUCKS), where they are sure to exchange the lid for a new lid that fits well and safely. The new lids are going to arrive March 1, 2013.
Don’t use your mug until you exchange the lid, please.
Here’s what you do:
* Please do not use your mug until you have exchanged the lid for a new one.
* New lids will arrive March 1, 2013.
* Return your travel mug to a STARBUCKS store.
* Your lid will be exchanged for a new lid.
If you’d like to return the entire mug, bring it back at any time for a full repayment.
If you have any questions about this recall, please call us at:

試題分析：文章大意：本文是對(duì)一種16 oz 不銹鋼旅游杯子蓋的一則召回廣告。
小題1:B作者意圖題。根據(jù)文章一開(kāi)頭Mug lid Recall---要召回16 oz杯子蓋，可知作者寫(xiě)作意圖是讓人們來(lái)?yè)Q杯子蓋。答案選B。
小題2:A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。 根據(jù)文章開(kāi)頭Owners of ---Mug lid Recall---16 oz Stainless Steel Travel Mug可知，需要召回的杯子蓋的主人是A、買(mǎi)16 oz不銹鋼旅游杯子的人。
小題3:D 正誤判斷題。根據(jù)第二段句子The fault ---account for injury from hot liquid leaking.可知人們應(yīng)該立即停止使用這種杯子。所以A項(xiàng)正確。根據(jù)條款中的句子If you’d like to return the entire mug, bring it back at any time for a full repayment. 可知，如果人們將整套杯子歸還那就可以全額退款。所以B項(xiàng)正確。根據(jù)句子Toll Free Number: 1-999-701-1717 可知，咨詢(xún)電話是免費(fèi)的。所以C項(xiàng)正確。根據(jù)第二段句子The notice is only about STARBUCKS 16 oz Stainless Steel Travel Mugs which were sold between November 2012 and February 2013.可知，要召回的杯子的銷(xiāo)售日期是2012年11月到2013年2月，而不是在此期間內(nèi)還回杯子蓋。所以D項(xiàng)不正確。答案選D。
小題4:D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段At STARBUCKS, customers’ safety is valued above anything else.可知，正確答案選D、STARBUCKS很在乎顧客的安全。
小題5:B 文章出處題。縱觀全文這是一篇關(guān)于杯子蓋的召回廣告，所以自然出于廣告。答案選B。

Plan on traveling around the USA this summer. If you need help in arranging the trip, or want ideas about where to go and what to do, there are a number of outstanding websites that can make your American dream come true.

The National Scenic Byways Program covers l50 memorable roads. Some are natural routes, such as Route l along the California coast.

For each, you are provided with a map, told the route’s length and how long is allowed, and given detailed suggestions on sights and stop-offs.
www. oyster. com
This is the best website for reviews of hotels in US cities and resorts. The reviews are impressively thorough--covering locations, rooms, cleanliness, food and so on.

www. mousesavers. com  
Walt Disney World in California can make dreams come true, but the price is not affordable for the majority of people.
So turn to long established Mousesavers. com, dedicated to giving big discounts on tickets, hotels and dining at Walt Disney World. The website also offers general money—saving tips, suggestions for cheap and free stuff and brief coverage of other Florida and California theme parks.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

Mattel Inc. is recalling 4.4 million Polly Pocket toys with magnets（磁鐵）after some of them caused serious injuries to children who swallowed magnets that fell off.
Tiny magnets inside the toys may fall off without being noticed by parents and babysitters. The magnets can be swallowed or placed in children’s noses or ears. When more than one magnet is swallowed, the magnets can attract each other and cause intestine perforation（腸內(nèi)穿孔）which can be deadly.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission（CPSC）received 170 reports of the small magnets coming out of these recalled toys. There were three reports of serious injuries to children who swallowed more than one magnet. All three suffered intestinal perforations that required operation. A 2-year-old child stayed in hospital for seven days and a 7-year-old child was hospitalized for 12 days. An 8-yeal-old child was also hospitalized.
The recalled Polly Pocket toys contain plastic dolls and accessories（附件）that have small magnets. The magnets measure one-eighth inch in diameter and are fixed in the hands and feet of some dolls, and even in the plastic clothing, hairpieces and other accessories to help the pieces stay on the doll or the doll’s house.
The model number is printed on the bottom of the largest pieces on some of the toys. Contact Mattel if you cannot find a model number on your product to determine if it is part of the recall. Polly Pocket magnetic toys currently sold in stores are not included in this recall. The model numbers included in the recall are: B2632, B3158, B3201, B7118, G8605, H1537, H1538 and H3211. The toys were on sales in department stores and toy stores from May 2006 through September 2009 for between $15 and $30.
Consumers should immediately take these recalled toys away from children and contact Mattel for the return of the toys. For more information contact Mattel at 888 597-6597 anytime or visit the company’s Web site.
小題1:The main purpose of the passage is       .
A．to criticize Mattel Inc. for their bad products
B．to inform readers of Polly Pocket toys recall
C．to warn readers the danger of swallowing magnets
D．to suggest some ways to return Polly Pocket toys
小題2:What did the writer use to show the danger of the problem toys?
