7.Quickly,the picture comes alive with hyperlinks (超鏈接),offering the names of the buildings,towers and street features that appear in the photo.The hyperlinks lead to information about the history,services and context of all the features in the photo.You have just hyperlinked your reality.
That might be a little unbelievable,but the technology exists and is no fevered imagination.This is not a cool small machine invented for the next James Bond movie; this is a working technology just developed by European researchers.It could be coming to a phone near you,and soon.
This,as the marketing types say,is a game changer.It develops a completely new interface (界面) that combines web-technology with the real world.It is big and fresh,but it goes much further and has much greater influence.
The development of the system is most outstanding because image recognition technology has long been pregnant with promise,but seemed to suffer from an unending labour.
Now MOBVIS has not only developed image recognition; it has also developed more applications for the technology; and it has adapted it to the world's most popular technology:the mobile phone.
The MOBVIS system completely rewrites the rules for exploration and interaction with your physical environment.The system begins with panoramas (一連串景象).These panoramas form the basis of a city database.It can match buildings,towers,banners and even logos that appear in the panoramas.
A user simply takes a picture of the street feature,MOBVIS compares the user's photograph to the panoramas and then identifies the buildings from the picture you take and the relevant links are returned.
Then you simply click on the links,using a touch-screen phone,and the MOBVIS system will provide information on the history,art,architecture or even the menu,if it is a restaurant,of the building in question.

67.Which is introduced in the passage?D
A.A new game software.       B.A popular mobile phone.
C.A cool small machine.      D.An image recognition system.

C.It has taken an unending labor to bring the technology into our lives.
D.It will encourage the users to take more pictures of the street features.
69.What is the right order of the operation of MOBVIS?B
a.A city database forms in the system.
b.MOBVIS recognizes the picture and links are returned.
c.A user touches the links on the phone screen.

C.d; c; e; a; b     D.c; a; e; b; d
70.From the passage,we can infer thatC.
A.MOBVIS has already been widely used all over the world
B.the writer is trying to promote the sales of the MOBVIS system
C.this new technology will soon be very popular in our lives
D.the sales of mobile phones will decrease as MOBVIS comes on market.

17.Sina Weibo,one of the country's most popular micro-blogging sites,has launched a paid service.For a 10 yuan ($ l.57)monthly fee,users get a membership on their Sina Weibo accounts.
   According to Xu Yuanyuan,a member of the marketing team at Sina,the move is to guarantee a more convenient and safer environment for users.But despite the company's efforts to increase income,it seems that most of its 300 million users still prefer the free version.
   The premium membership(高級會員) plans,announced by the company on Monday,brought about negative comments from its users.
"The current service is good enough for me",said a Beijing-based micro-blogger."I don't really need those value-added services and it might be a waste of money.I might consider paying for it if some more features are added."
Dong Xu,an analyst with consulting firm Analysys International,said that Sina shouldn't expect a great increase in income brought by the new services.The free services are enough for most users,Dong said."The company has been making attempts at different profit models since last year.A potential source of income could be gaming.Games and advertisements are so far the two biggest sources of income."she said.
Other micro-blogging service providers have not yet followed suit.Fang Gang,vice-president of rival Sohu,said via e-mail on Tuesday that Sohu's micro-blogging service will never charge users."It's good news for us.Users can come to our website if they have to pay for services (at Sina)."Fang said.

56.Most of Sina Weibo's usersB.
A.a(chǎn)ren't satisfied with its free version
B.show no interest in its paid services 
C.a(chǎn)re looking forward to new services

57.What's Dong Xu's attitude towards Sina Weibo's new services increasing income?A
A.Negative.
B.Confident.
C.Indifferent.
D.Positive.
58.Why did Fang Gang consider Sina Weibo's charging its users good news?C
A.Because Sina will make more money.
B.Because Sina will lose the whole Weibo market.
C.Because Sohu will attract more users.

18.It is one of the greatest mysteries of nature.In case you haven't noticed,all living things follow very definite,individual rhythms,all as regular as a clock,but what makes them regular?
    Though many scientists maintain that these rhythms are the result of some outside force like gravity or radiation or both,the results of most scientific researches agree with other scientists who believe that each living thing has its own built-in biological"time clock."
    Take the mystery of migration for example.Scientists can't really explain why many species of birds migrate in the autumn even though the temperature is still summery.The birds just seem to snub the comfortable weather that they are having.When a certain time comes,they travel south by the thousand.In spring time,they migrate northwards even though there probably is snow still covering the ground when they finally arrive.Something said"go,"and they did.
    Animals that hibernate (冬眠) are obeying individual time clocks,too.When their clock indicates the time to take a winter's nap,they do,and nothing can stop them.At a certain time in the spring,they wake up and come out regardless of the weather outside.
    Plants appear to have yearly rhythms,such as the sprouting of seeds,and they also have daily rhythms.Notice sometimes that plants raise their leaves in daylight and lower them at night.
    If you live along the California coast,you can easily observe a demonstration of this mysterious clock functioning regularly.There,from February to September,the highest tides occur exactly every fourteen and four-fifths days,and during these high tides,but at no other time,small silvery fish called grunions surf-ride a wave to the beach.There the female deposits her eggs in the sand and the male fertilizes them; then both hitch a wave-ride back to the sea.Exactly fourteen and four-fifths days later,never before or after,the tiny eggs hatch,and the high tide carries the new babies out to sea.

72.According to the passage,the mysterious rhythms result fromD.
   A.the influence of gravity on living species
   B.the effect of radiation on living species
   C.the influence of a mysterious outer force on living species
   D.the internal mechanism inside the living species
73.The underlined word"snub"in the third paragraph probably meansB.
   A.fight          B.ignore          C.symbolize         D.criticize
74.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?D
   A.Hibernating animals are obeying an internal time clock.
   B.The positioning of the leaves of some plants is due to the daily rhythms.
   C.The internal clock functioning is demonstrated in the reproducing habits of grunions.
   D.The yearly hibernation is more because of the weather influence than the biological functioning.
75.The passage is mainly aboutA.
   A.the rhythms of life              
   B.the reasons of mysterious hibernation
   C.strange behaviors of species     
   D.the timing for different events in the world of species.

15.Every baby born a decade from now will have its genetic code (基因編碼) mapped at birth,the head of the worlds'leading genome sequencing (基因圖譜) company has predicted.
A complete DNA read-out for every newborn will be technically possible and affordable in less than five years,promising a revolution in healthcare,says Jay Flatley,the chief executive of Illumina.Only social and legal problems are likely to delay the age of"genome sequences,"or genetic profiles.By 2019 it will have become routine to map infants'genes when they are born,Dr Flatly told The Times.
This will open a new approach to medicine,by which conditions such as high blood pressure and heart disease can be predicted and prevented and drugs used more safely and effectively.
A baby's genome can be discovered at birth by a blood test.By examining a person's genome,it is possible to identify raised risks of developing diseases such as cancers.Those at high risk can then he screened more regularly,or given drugs or dietary advice to lower their chances of becoming ill.
Personal genomes could also he used to ensure that patients get the medicine that is most likely to work for them and least likely to have side-effects.
The development,however,will raise legal concerns about privacy and access to individuals'genetic records.
"Bad things can be done with the genome.It could predict something about someone-and you could possibly hand the information to their employer or their insurance company."said Dr Flatley.
"People have to recognize that this horse is out of the barn,and that your genome probably can't be protected,because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind.Complete genetic privacy,however,is unlikely to be possible",he added.
As the benefits become clearer,however,he believes that most people will want their genomes read and interpreted.The risk is nothing compared with the gain.
63.In the first two paragraphs,the author mainly wants to tell us about.A
A.the significant progress in medicine
B.the promise of a leading company
C.the information of babies'genes   
D.the research of medical scientists
64.Which of the following is a problem caused by this approach?D
A.The delaying in discovering DNA.
B.The risk of developing diseases at birth.
C.The side-effects of medicine on patients.
D.The letting out of personal genetic information.
65.What does the underlined sentence"…this horse is out of the barn"mean?D
A.Genetic mapping technique has been widely used.
B.Genetic mapping technique is too horrible to control.
C.People are eager to improve genetic mapping technique.
D.people can't stop genetic mapping technique advancing.
66.What's Dr Flatley's attitude towards the technology?C
A.Tolerant.B.Conservative.C.Positive.D.Doubtful.

2.I'm usually fairly doubtful about any research that concludes that people are either happier or unhappier or more or less certain of themselves than they were 50years ago.While any of these statements might be true,they are practically impossible to prove scientifically.Still,I was struck by a report which concluded that today's children are significantly more anxious than children in the 1950s.In fact,the analysis showed,normal children aged 9to 17exhibit a higher level of anxiety today than children who were treated for mental illness 50years ago.
Why are America's kids so stressed?According to the report there are two main causes:increasing loneliness─brought on by high divorce rates and little communication with society,among other things─and a growing perception that the world is a more dangerous place.
Given that we can't turn the clock back,adults can still do plenty to help the next generation handle such difficulties.At the top of the list is giving children a better appreciation of the limits of individualism (個人主義).No child is an island.Strengthening social ties helps protect individuals against stress.To help kids build stronger connections with others,you can pull the plug on TVs and computers.Your family will thank you later.They will have more time for face-to-face relationships,and they will get more sleep.
Limit the amount of virtual  violence your children are exposed to.It's not just video games and movies; children see a lot of murder and crime on the local news.Keep your expectations for your children reasonable.Many highly successful people never attended Harvard or Yale.Make exercise part of your daily routine.It will help you deal with your own anxieties and provide a good model for your kids.Sometimes anxiety is unavoidable.But it doesn't have to ruin your life.

125.The author thinks that the conclusions of any research comparing people's state of mind today with people's state of mind in the past areD.
A.surprising           B.confusing      
C.interesting          D.questionable
126.What does the author mean when he says,"we can't turn the clock back"(Paragraph 3)?B
A.It's impossible to slow down the pace of change.
B.The social reality children are facing cannot be changed.
C.Lessons learned from the past should not be forgotten.
D.It's impossible to forget the past.
127.According to the analysis,compared with normal children today,children treated as mentally ill 50years agoC.
A.had little communication with friends
B.were probably less self-centered
C.probably suffered less from anxiety
D.were considered less individualistic
128.The first and most important thing parents should do to help their children isC.
A.to provide the children with a safer environment
B.to lower their expectations for the children
C.to get the children more active socially
D.to set an example for the children to follow
129.What conclusion can be drawn from the passage?A
A.Anxiety,though unavoidable,can be dealt with.
B.Children's anxiety has been taken too seriously.
C.Children's anxiety can disappear with more parental care.
D.Anxiety,if properly controlled,may help children become mature.

12.A popular saying goes,"Sticks and stones may break my bones,but words will never hurt me."However,that's not really true.Words have the power to build us up or tear us down.It doesn't matter whether the words come from someone else or ourselves-the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.
We all talk to ourselves sometimes.We're usually too embarrassed to admit it,though.In fact,we really shouldn't be because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.
This"self-talk"helps us motivate ourselves,remember things,solve problems,and calm ourselves down.Be aware,though,that as much as 77%of self-talk tends to be negative.So in order to stay positive,we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves.We should also be quick to  give ourselves a pat on the back.The next time you finish a project,do well in a test,or finally clean your room,join me in saying"Good job!"
Often,words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have.But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others.For example,when returning an item to a store,we might use warm,friendly language during the exchange.And the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner.Or unkind and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.
Words possess power because of their lasting effect.Many of us regret something we once said.And we remember unkind words said to us!Before speaking,we should always ask ourselves:Is it true?Is it loving?Is it needed?If what we want to say doesn't pass this test,then it's better left unsaid.
Words possess power:both positive and negative.Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively.We can offer hope,build self-esteem(自尊) and motivate others to do their best.Negative words destroy all those things.Will we use our words to hurt or to heal?The choice is ours.

60.The main idea of the first paragraph is thatA.
A.words have a lasting effect on us
B.inspiring words give us confidence
C.negative words may let us down
D.not sticks and stones but words will hurt us
61.It is unnecessary to feel embarrassed when we talk to ourselves becauseC.
A.a(chǎn)lmost everybody has the habit of talking to themselves
B.talking to ourselves always gives us courage
C.we can benefit from talking to ourselves
D.it does no harm to have"self-talk"when we are alone
62.The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also occasionallyC.
A.remind ourselves               B.make ourselves relaxed
C.praise ourselves               D.give ourselves amusement
63.The author would probably hold the view thatD.
A.encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offers
B.negative words may motivate us to make more progress
C.people tend to remember friendly words
D.it is better to think twice before talking to others.

19.When we think about happiness,we usually think of something extraordinary,a top great delight.
For a child,happiness has a magic quality.I remember playing police and robbers in the woods,getting a speaking part in the school play.Of course,kids also experience lows,but their delight at tops of pleasure is easily seen,such as winning a race or getting a new bike.
For teenagers,or people under 20the concept of happiness changes.Suddenly it's conditional on such things as excitement,love,and popularity.I can still feel the pain of not being invited to a party that almost everyone else was going to.I also recall the great happiness of being invited at another event to dance with a very handsome young man.
In adulthood the things that bring great joy-birth,love,marriage-also bring responsibility and the risk of loss.Love may not last; loved ones die.For adults,happiness is complex.
My dictionary explains"happy"as"lucky"or"fortunate",but I think a better explanation of happiness is"the ability to enjoy something".The more we can enjoy what we have,the happier we are.It's easy for us not to notice the pleasure we get from loving and being loved,the company of friends,the freedom to love where we please,and even good health.Nowadays,with so many choices and much pleasure,we have turned happiness into one more thing we have.We think we own the right to have it,which makes us extremely unhappy.So we try hard to get it and consider it to be the same as wealth and success,without noticing that the people who have those things aren't necessarily happier.
While happiness may be more complex for us,the answer is the same as ever.Happiness isn't about what happens to us.It's the ability to find a positive for every negative,and view a difficulty as a challenge.Don't be sad for what we don't have,but enjoy what we do possess.

60.According to the passage,happiness lies in the ability toD.
A.think of something extraordinary   
B.experience delight at an old age
C.feel the magic quality of pleasure   
D.enjoy what one has at the moment
61.In paragraph 3,a teenager looks at happiness mainly in terms ofC.
A.material gains                     B.social honor
C.spiritual satisfaction             D.a(chǎn)cademic achievement
62.The author implies that when one dreams wealth and finally gets it heB.
A.can realize what happiness is
B.may not end up with happiness
C.may consider it extreme happiness
D.should not feel content with himself
63.The passage aims to tellB.
A.the great importance of happiness  
B.the real meaning of happiness
C.the constant dream of happiness    
D.the changing concept of happiness.

17.Four centuries ago,the author of one of the greatest comic creations in all of world literature breathed his last breath.Miguel de Cervantes (1547-1616),the author of Don Quixote (《堂•吉訶德》),is to the Spanish what Shakespeare is to the English and Dante is to Italians-a national literary(文學的) hero.
Cervantes'book is still appreciated(欣賞) today because it's a truthful comedy.Don Quixote,like human beings generally,has great difficulty distinguishing(區(qū)別)reality from imagination.Readers laugh at him,but when we laugh,we laugh with recognition.
Alonso Quijano is an older Spanish gentleman who loves romances.In truth,he reads far too many romances and they have affected his mind.Quijano is so mixed up that he decides that he must become a knight (騎士) himself.
Quijano becomes"Don Quixote de La Mancha",an aristocratic (貴族的) name that suits a knight.Next,since every knight needs a horse,he finds himself an old one.But the horse named Rocinante is nothing like a horse a knight would ride.He's old and tired from a life of farm work.
The old heroes of the romances all had a lady to love,someone highborn (出生高貴的) like the knight himself.Don Quixote chooses Aldonza Lorenzo,a farmer's daughter,to be his beloved.She becomes"Dulcinea del Toboso",or"the sweet woman of Toboso".Does this please Aldonza Lorenzo?It cannot,because she is all in Don Quixote's imagination.
Now comes Cervantes'second great creation:Sancho Panza.Quijano makes his servant Quixote's squire (隨從),because every self-respecting knight has a squire.Sancho is a sensible  foil (陪襯) to the foolish master.
The pair have many adventures ahead of them,but none will be as heroic as a knight's should be.We laugh,rather than cry,as we read.
Cervantes'novel has given us a word that sums up the character type of Alonso Quijano:"quixotic".In English we use the word to describe someone who is idealistic (理想主義的) but foolish in pursuit (追求) of his ideals.It was Cervantes'genius (才能) to see this common trait(特點) and invent a great comedic character.We should salute (向…致敬) him for it on the 400th anniversary of his death on April 22.
