12．Something I enjoy doing most in my leisure time is going to the cinema to watch a great film．It's two hours of relaxation and escapism from real life．But when I kick back in my seat to enjoy the film and tuck into my box of popcorn，I'm often irritated by seeing someone next to me texting on their mobile phone or worse still，talking to someone．
It's no surprise that a proposal by a US cinema chain to let people use their phones during some film screenings was met with such anger，that the company had to withdraw the idea．People said it was'the worst idea ever'!Surely，going to watch the latest film is just that-watching not multi-screening．And if you're out with a friend it seems very antisocial or just rude．I certainly get distracted by the click-click on someone's mobile keyboard as they text and the glow of the bright small phone screen-why aren't they concentrating on the big screen？!
But with the availability of streaming films at home and cheap DVDs，cinemas are struggling to keep their customers．Some places now offer comfortable seats with complimentary snacks and drinks so maybe trying to attract a younger audience by allowing the use of mobile phones is the way forward？A survey in 2012found that a majority of 18-to-34-year-olds believed using social media while watching a movie would add to their experience．
However，not every young person wants to multi-task at the movies．Many of us still get annoyed by the theatre staff who appear not to do anything about it．Of course，we could ask the offenders to turn their phones off but as Adam Aron，head of AMC Entertainment，said in Variety magazine，6/when you tell a 22-year-old to turn off the phone，don't ruin the movie，they hear'please cut off your left arm above the elbow'．"Clearly this is not what I would like to see but if you want to use your mobile phone in the cinema that I'm at，please don't sit next to me!What do you think is the right thing to do？

28．The underline word"irritated"in Paragraph 1meansC．
A．terrified        
B．depressed          
C．a(chǎn)nnoyed         
D．embarrassed
29．Which of the following is True of the US cinema chain's original advice？B
A．The advice was carried out smoothly．
B．They permitted people to use the phone．
C．The advice was very popular with people．
D．They prohibited people to use the phone．
30．What can we infer from Paragraph 3？A
A．Young people use their social media frequently．
B．The cinema needn't worry about their customers．
C．People prefer to watch films and DVD at home．
D．Sending messages is the best experience for young people．
31．What is the author's attitude towards multi-task at the movies？D
A．Sympathy．B．Encouragement．C．Enthusiasm．D．Disapproval．

分析 很多人在看電影的時(shí)候都會(huì)發(fā)短信或者更嚴(yán)重的打電話，給別人造成了影響，對(duì)這一現(xiàn)象作者是反對(duì)的．

解答 28-31 CBAD
28．C 猜測(cè)詞意題．根據(jù)后句by seeing someone next to me texting on their mobile phone or worse still，talking to someone可知，在看電影時(shí)邊上的人發(fā)短信或者更嚴(yán)重的打電話，為此我感到很生氣，故選C．
29．B 細(xì)節(jié)題．在第二段開(kāi)頭It's no surprise that a proposal by a US cinema chain to let people use their phones不奇怪，一家美國(guó)電影連鎖影院提議觀眾可以使用手機(jī)，故選B．
30．A 細(xì)節(jié)題．最后一句 a majority of 18-to-34-year-olds believed using social media while watching a movie would add to their experience．告訴我們?cè)诳措娪皶r(shí)使用社交媒體的大多數(shù)是18-to-34-year-olds，故選A．
31．D 推理題．在最后一段的第一句However，not every young person wants to multi-task at the movies作者認(rèn)為不是每個(gè)年輕人都想在看電影時(shí)同時(shí)做很多事情，故作者是反對(duì)的，故選D．

7．There are probably no people on Earth who like to gossip as much as the British．If prying into（打探）other's lives were an Olympic sport，then Team GB would surely take the gold medal．
And when the British can't watch the lives of real people，they have another source of entertainment to fall back on-the soap opera．British soap operas are very different from US TV dramas．For one，they are normally longer running．The two most popular，Coronation Street and East-enders，have been running for 48 and 24 years respectively．Both are broadcast several times a week，so remarkably there have been more than 7，000 episodes of Coronation Street．
The most obvious difference is that，unlike US dramas，the British soap operas focus on the real world．There is little glamour（魅力），the stars are rarely rich，and they normally have boring jobs．Perhaps the appeal is that the lives of the characters often mirror the lives of the audience-but with some drama added．This means the viewer can relate to the characters and feel the pain and happiness they go through on the show．
Because thesesoapoperas last fordecades，the cast is ever changing，The shows rarely focus on oneor two main characters．Like the real world，people come and go all the time．However，there are exceptions．Street's william Roach，76，has played the role of Ken Barlow since the very first episode of the show in 1960，and he is still a regular．
The choice of which soap opera you follow is often cultural：People from the north of British tend to watch Coronation Street as it is set in Manchester．People from the south generally prefer East-enders，which is set in the east of London．The show is generally considered grittier and is aimed at a younger audience．

28．What is the main difference between American dramas and British soap operas？D
A．American dramas are longer．
B．British soap operas are longer．
C．American dramas deal with dangerous things．
D．British soap operas deal with real people．
29．Why do British people like to watch such operas？A
A．They can find their own life from the operas．
B．They can enjoy the operas in their free time．
C．They can watch the operas for many years．
D．They care about the fate of the characters in the operas．
30．The underlined world"episodes"in the 2nd paragraph probably meansD．
A．plays 
B．pages 
C．issues
D．parts
31．One characteristic of British operas is thatB．
A．the characters play the same role for along time
B．the characters in the play often change
C．people don't know what will happen next
D．there is only one or two characters in them．

1．While global warming and ocean acidification driven by pollution cause a real threat to sea creatures，climate change is not the primary driver threatening to cause the extinction（滅絕）of large ocean animals．It is humans that are threatening large sea creatures primarily by hunting and fishing them．
Researchers  findings reflect a phenomenon experienced by ancient land ecosystems（生態(tài)系統(tǒng)）．These losses in the ocean are paralleling what humans did to land animals sonic 50，000 to 10，000 years ago．when we wiped out around half of the big-bodied mammals on Earth，like mammoths，mastodons．saber-tooth cats and the like．
The increasing threat to large groups of sea animals is a recent phenomenon．The researchers made this discovery by comparing characteristics of nearly 2，500 extinct sea vertebrates and mollusks alongside others currently in danger of extinction．They found that smaller sea animals were a little more likely than large ones to be killed off during five previous mass extinction events-the most recent of which was associated with a small planet's strike some 65 million years ago．
What was surprising to the reseachere was  that they did not see a similar kind of pattern in any of the previous mass extinction events that they studied．
The study shows that a sixth mass extinction，which may already be underway  could kill off larger-bodied animals while leaving smaller ones behind．That could have a terrible long-term impact．
Such removal of the largest animals from the modern oceans，which never happened in the history of animal life，may disturb the order of ecosystems for millions of years even at levels of taxonomic loss far below those of previous mass extinctions．
This news should serve as ii wake-up call for humans to fundamentally change the way they manage the oceans．That is to say，it is a warning of what will happen if we don't get our act together．
Limiting industrialization of the oceans may be necessary to give threatened animals time and space to recover．Most whaling has been banned since the 1980s．We have brought gray whales back from the edge of extinction and blue whales are coming back too．
The researchers point out that cutting back on carbon emissions（排放）will also be  necessary lo slow extinctions．

58．Pantgraph 2 is intended to tell us thatA．
A．both land animals and sea  animals die out because of humans
B．big-bodied animals were killedas they were threattohumans
C．humans tended to kill animalson land instead of thoseinseas
D．humans have been main killers of animals for a very long time
59．What can we learn from the researcher's，studies about animal extinction？B
A．It is easier for sea creatures to go extinct than land ones．
B．The patterns of sea animal mass extinction are irregular．
C．Humans were responsible for all those extinctions．
D．Small-bodied creatucs produce I heir young more easily，
60．Which does the passage suggest is the most important in stopping sea animal extinction？D
A．To completely ban people from hunting them．
B．To fully realize the urgency ofprotecting them．
C．To unconditionally release kssCO2 into the air．
D．To reasonably keep control ofthe trade in them．
