14.Well,parents,surprise!Lots of us are using Twitter and Facebook to thumb rides,and not just to school.It's awkward to be refused when you call a friend and ask for a ride.But with Twitter,you just look for other people heading the same way.
    It may sound risky,so many teens stay within their own social circles to find rides,and don't branch out beyond friends when asking on Twitter just like me,but to some young people,especially those taking longer trips,stranger danger is less of a concern.
"I think the digital connection of young people is really key,because younger generations grew up sharing things on line,sharing files,photos,music,etc,so they've been very used to sharing,"said Juliet Schor,a sociology professor at Boston College.
    The sharing economy got big during the recession (經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退),allowing people to access more goods,services using technology and even to share costs.And that technology,for me,is what the car was for my mom,a gateway to more freedom,like what my friend Earl says,"The symbol of freedom isn't the car any more because there's technology out there connecting you to a car."
According to the researchers at the University of Michigan,30 years ago,eight in ten American 18-year-olds had a driver's license compared to six in ten today.So it's not that surprising that on my 16th birthday I wasn't rushing to get a license but an iPhone.
"Driving,for young people,does mean they have to disconnect from their technology,and that's a negative.So if they could sit in the passage side and still be connected,that's going to be a plus."Schor continued.
To me,another plus is that ridesharing represents something,something much bigger than trying to save money.I see it as evidence that people still depend on each other.My generation shares their cars and apartments the way neighbors used to share cups of sugar.For the system to work,some of us still need our own cars.But until I get my own version of the silver Super Beetle,you can find me on Twitter.

29.The American teens like me,prefer to possess an iPhone as a birthday gift becauseC.
A.it is most fashionable and cool              
B.they are bored with driving cars
C.they are fond of being connected             
D.it is much cheaper than a car
30.We can learn from the text thatB.
A.Twitter is a website for teens to make friends and achieve goals
B.ridesharing can be seen as a sign that people still count on each other
C.driving cars for teens means a plus and connecting with technology
D.having a car and cost-sharing symbolize more freedom for the author's mother
31.Professor Juliet would agree thatD.
A.young people will sit waiting to be contacted by reading a passage
B.sharing economy is bound to be responsible for the recession
C.young people tend to share a car with strangers by means of Twitter
D.being connected via technology comes first for young people
32.The best title for the passage is probablyC
A.Twitter,an Awesome Website             
B.Cars or iPhone
C.Teens Use Twitter to Thumb Rides        
D.Cool Teens on the Go.

13.I've often wondered if I might do more good as a travel agent rather than as a psychologist.It seems that I have been more dramatically affected by certain kinds of travel experiences than I ever have.
My trip to Iceland is a fine example of that.The plan was to spend two days in a remote mountain hut in Iceland.I was working on a photographic book about winter in Iceland and needed to capture images of this amazing region of high mountain peaks,smoky volcanoes,and lakes with floating icebergs.
The moment after we arrived,the weather turned extreme making visibility impossible.It snowed so much and the wind blew so hard that we couldn't leave the tiny hut.To stay warm,we walked around in circles much of the day inside the tiny hut.We tried to call for help but the radio did not work.Day after day,we watched our supplies of food and fuel grow dangerously short.We got acute cabin fever (幽居。 and started going for walks and ski expeditions outside.Even when the weather finally broke,nobody came to get us even though it was three days beyond our scheduled pickup.By the time the rescue team came to pull us out,we had all given up hope.
From then on,the world looks different to me,as does my life.It would have taken me years of psychotherapy to get to the same point.
Almost everyone has a story to tell,and interestingly,most of these experiences were not altogether pleasant at the time.In fact,it appears that the most constructive life-changing journeys were those that involved some sorts of awful and uncomfortable events that forced the person to develop new resources,increase confidence,and solve problems in new ways.

21.The writer went to Iceland toB.
A.enjoy the natural beautiful floating icebergs
B.take photos about the region for a book
C.collect materials for psychological research
D.challenge the high mountains there
22.During the trip in Iceland,those travelers faced difficulties EXCEPT thatA
A.they got lost in the mountain
B.they were short of food and fuel
C.they couldn't see the surroundings clearly
D.they failed to get in touch with the rescue team
23.From Paragraph 3,we learn that the travelersA.
A.were in despair before they were rescued
B.stayed in the hut for three days altogether
C.got sick because of going for ski outside
D.got rescued immediately the weather turned fine
24.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?D
A.The writer is a travel agent who loves difficult challenges.
B.In Iceland the weather is always extreme and it snows a lot.
C.The travellers were so depressed that they needed psychotherapy.
D.Awful journeys may become life-changing events that inspire people.

12.How do you think your school will look in the future?Last week,about 600 teenagers in the US imagined a future changed by technology in which their lessons are taught by robots and they learn about celebrities and alien languages.
According to a survey published last week by the US Internet service provider American On-line,only one in 100 thinks that in the future they will walk from home to school; the rest believe they will use jet packs (噴氣背包),and hover boards-something like helicopters as everyday transport.
All the participants of the survey are teenagers born into the Internet age.The study is to show how the first cyber generation dream about a future life created by advanced technology.
Most believe there will still be schools to go to,but that technology will play an increasingly important role in learning.The 600 teens surveyed think there will still be teachers,but 37 per cent imagine them to be robots.Some 24 per cent believe that teachers will still be human but they will have interchangeable microchips so that one person can teach all subjects.
More than one in two believes hover-boarding will be popular,while one-third say that wearing rocket boots will be their favorite activity.Another third think jet packs will be popular.Nearly 30 per cent think playing football and bike-riding will remain popular.
When it comes to the subjects,they think future generations will be learning about robot building,alien languages,celebrities and R'n'B music.

11.New technology links the world as never before.Our plant has shrunk.It's now a"global village"where countries are only seconds away by fax or phone satellite link.And,of course,our ability to benefit from this high-tech communications equipment is greatly enhanced by foreign language skills.
Deeply involved with this new technology is a breed of modern business people who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad.In modern markets,success overseas often help support domestic business efforts.
Overseas assignments are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive ranks.The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being"out of sight and out of mind."He or she can be sure that the overseas effort is central to the company's plan for success,and that promotions often follow or accompany an assignment abroad.If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas,superiors will have greater confidence in his or her ability to cope back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more prevalent(流行的).
Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communications devices with business applications,even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets.
English is still the international language of business.But there is an ever-growing need for people who can speak another language.A second language isn't generally required to get a job in business,but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal.
The employee posted abroad who speaks the country's principal language has an opportunity to fast-forward certain negotiations,and can have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly.The employer at the home office who can communicate well with foreign clients over the telephone or by fax machine is an obvious asset to the firm.
(Note Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN SIX WORDS.)

78.In this passage,"out of sight and out of mind"in paragraph 3probably meansmissing opportunities for promotion when abroad.
79.What is the author's attitude toward high-tech communications equipment?Positive..
80.According to the passage,what is an important consideration of international corporations in employing people today?Ability to speak the client's language.
81.The advantage of employees having foreign language skills is that they canbetter control the whole negotiation process.

10.How many hours do you spend sitting in a chair every day?Eight hours in the office plus three hours in front of the TV after work is the usual situation for many people.
You probably don't need an expert to tell you that sitting too much is not good for your health-from an increased risk of heart disease and obesity(肥胖) in the long term,to reduced cholesterol(膽固醇) maintenance in the short term,not to mention the pressure on your neck and spine(脊柱).
To make matters worse,a growing body of research suggests that the negative effects of sitting too much cannot be countered with a good diet and regular exercise,according to an article in The New York Times.The article reported that a study of nearly 9,000Australians found that for each additional hour of television a person watched per day,the risk of dying rose by 11percent.In other words,sitting is killing us.
Stand up for health.Health experts suggest we break up those many hours spent sitting with more hours spent standing.
The BBC and the University of Chester in the UK conducted a simple experiment with a small group of 10volunteers who usually spent most of the day sitting.They were asked to stand for at least three hours a day.The researchers took measurements on days when the volunteers stood,and when they sat around.When they looked at the data,there were some striking differences.Blood sugar became level after a meal much quicker on the days when the volunteers in the study stood compared with the days they spent in a chair.Standing also burned more calories(熱量單位:卡路里)-about 50calories an hour.Over the course of a year that would add up to about 30,000extra calories,or around 3.63kilograms of fat.
John Buckley,a member of the research team,said that although doing exercise offers many proven benefits,our bodies also need the constant,almost imperceptible(感覺不到的) increase in muscle activity that standing provides.Simple movement helps us to keep our all-important blood sugar under control.
The researchers believe that even small adjustments,like standing while talking on the phone,going over to talk to a colleague rather than sending an e-mail,or simply taking the stairs instead of the elevator,will help.
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)

78.According to the context,the underlined expression"be countered with"in Paragraph 3can best be replaced by"be prevented/reduced by".
79.The two findings of the simple experiment conducted by the BBC and the University of Chester in the UK are that standinghelps blood sugar become level quicker and burns more calories.
80.Why is standing better than doing exercise according to John Buckley?Standing provides the constant,almost imperceptible increase in muscle activity.
81.What does the passage mainly want to tell us?People should stand for health instead of sitting too much.
