LONDON- “Everyone else has one!” Lucy declared to her parents, trying to get a mobile phone as a gift for 14th birthday. Her parents gave in.

Curious to know how her daughter would use the phone, Jane Bidder, the mother, followed Lucy to the school bus in the morning. The bus seats 20, of whom half have a mobile phone. One rings and several adolescent owners fumble with their bags.

Many parents have just come to realize that the mobile phone is no longer for traveling businessmen—it is as likely to be found in school bags.

The mobile phone seems to have become something essential for today’s teens in Britain, according to a survey published last week, by NOP, a leading market research company in Britain. Research found that 66 percent of 16 – year – olds now have access to a mobile phone.

The mobile phone has been turned into a secret messaging service by teen users. When they are talking on the mobile, their parents are not able to eavesdrop on the second line.

The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favor the text messaging service because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch. The days of secret notes in the classroom are dying out.

For example, “cul” means “see you later”; “l(fā)ol” means “l(fā)augh out loud’; and “2nite” is the abbreviation of “tonight”. All these are based on shorthand phrases on the Internet.

Many schools have banned students using mobile phones. But they are not very successful. Still phones ring in the class and disturb study. Besides, people are worried about the health risk to kids using mobile phones.

Scientists believe children are especially vulnerable（易受傷的）mobile radiation.

41．The story of Lucy is told to show us          .

       A．British parents always meet their children’s needs.

       B．British kids have good relationship with their parents.

       C．how British parents accept the truth of teenagers owning a mobile phone.

       D．why every child gets a mobile phone as a birthday present in UK

42．Which of the following statements is NOT   true according to the passage?

       A．People worry about the harm to the kids’ health by using mobile phone.

       B．Teenagers want to have their own secret.

       C．Lucy does not get the mobile phone she wants

       D．Teenagers like to send messages to each other

43．The underlined word “eavesdrop” means          .

       A．join in actively                                     B．interrupt rudely

       C．watch carefully                                   D．listen secretly

44．Interviews discover children like to send messages instead of          .

       A．calling each other                                 B．writing to each other

       C．playing games online                            D．greeting each other

答案  41.C  42.C  43.D  44.B

Moods, say the experts, are feelings that tend to become fixed, influencing one’s outlook for hours, days or even weeks. That’s great if your mood is a pleasant one, but a problem if you are sad, anxious, angry or simply lonely.

Perhaps the best way to deal with such moods is to talk them out; sometimes, though, there is no one to listen. Modern pharmacology（藥理學(xué)）offers a lot of tranquilizers（鎮(zhèn)靜劑）. What many people don’t realize, however, is that scientists have discovered the effectiveness of several non – drug methods to set you loose from an unwanted mood. These can be just as useful as drugs, and have the added benefit of being nonpoisonous So next time you feel out of sorts, don’t head for the drug – store but try the following methods.

Of all the mood – altering self – help techniques, aerobic exercise（有氧運(yùn)動(dòng)）seems to be the most efficient cure for a bad mood. “If you could keep up the exercise you’d be in high spirits,” says Kathryn Lance, author of Running for Health and Beauty.

Researchers have explained biochemical an various other changes that make exercise compare favorable to drugs as a mood raiser. Physical work such as housework, however, does little. The key is aerobic exercise —running, cycling, walking, swimming or other repetitive and sustained activities that increase the heart rate, increase blood circulation and improve the body’s use of oxygen. Do some of the activities for at least 20 minutes a session three to five times a week.

53．What is the main subject of the passage?

       A．How to beat a bad mood                       B．How to talk bad moods out

       C．How to do physical exercises                D．How to do aerobic exercises

       A．when one is in a bad mood, he or she may not work very well

       B．the best way to overcome a bad mood is to talk to oneself

       C．some drugs are more effective than physical exercises

       D．taking drugs is at risk of being poisonous

55．The phrase “feel out of sorts”, could be best replaced by            .

       A．put things in order                               B．a(chǎn)re in a bad mood

       C．search for tranquilizers                         D．want a mood - raiser

56．Which of the following best describes the organization of the this passage?

      A．An exercise and its importance are explained.

       B．A problem is examined and solutions are given.

       C．Two different views of a problem are presented.

       D．Recent developments in medicine are described.

57．According to the passage, all of the following are true except            .

       A．moods can have an effect on people’s feelings

       B．a(chǎn)erobic exercise can help people get rid of the bad moods.

       C．scientists have provided people with many tranquilizers

       D．swimming, or running is an effective cure for a bad mood

The interview had been going on for about 20 minutes and everything seems to be going well. Then, suddenly, the interviewer asks an unexpected question, “Which is more important, law or love?”

Job applicants in the west increasingly find themselves asked strange questions like this. And the signs are that this is beginning to happen in China.

Employers want people skilled, enthusiastic and devoted. So these are the qualities that any reasonably intelligent job applicants will try to show no matter what his or her actual feelings are. In response, employers are increasingly using questions which try and show the applicant’s true personality.

The question in the first paragraph comes from a test called Kiersey Personality Sorter. It is an attempt to discover how people solve problems, rather than what they know. This is often called aptitude（能力）testing.

According to Mark Baldwin of Alliance many job applicants in China are finding this type of questions difficult. When a Chinese person fills out an aptitude test he or she will think there is a right answer and they may fail because they try to guess what the examiner wants to see.

This is sometimes called the prisoner’s dilemma（窘境）. Applicants are trying to act cleverly in their own interest. But they fail because they don’t understand what the interviewer is looking for. Remember that in an aptitude test, the correct answer is always the honest answer.

       A．give you a piece of advice on a job interview.

       B．tell you how to meet a job interviewer

       C．describe the aptitude test.

       D．a(chǎn)dvice you how to find a job

      A．not tell the truth

       B．learn to tell what they really think

60．From the passage we know that            .

       A．job applicants are always asked such questions

       B．more Chinese applicants fail to find a job

       C．a(chǎn)pplicants should not act as reasonably as a prisoner
