1．You may have experienced the annoyance of being fined because of parking illegally or finding your car towed away（拖走）after leaving it parked somewhere for a couple of minutes．But now a high-tech car sticker that's designed to be stuck to a car's windscreen could help motorists avoid such a situation．
The TowStop sticker sends a text message to a driver when touched by a traffic policeman，to allow motorists to send a reply and give them time to move their cars immediately．Frankfurt-based IT consultant，Daniel Kalliontzis，came up with the idea and is raising money to put his?54（￡43）sticker into production．
Car owners can put the sticker inside their car's windscreen，having set it up with key information，such as their phone number．The slim design will include a sensor（傳感器）that，when touched by a traffic policeman，will send a text message warning a driver of a possible fine．The driver could then type a reply for the policeman using a smartphone，which will appear on the sticker's screen．
The smart sticker system will rely on the good will of traffic policemen and in a way，a German law．The law states：an officer has to choose the most efficient and inexpensive way for the car owner to remove the vehicle．It could be cheaper for the government to call the driver than to tow his car．
Mail Online asked the Department of Transport whether the sticker could be used in the UK in a similar way．A spokesman said，"In England there is no legal duty to warn the motorist before issuing the ticket．However，a policeman does have the discretion not to issue a ticket if he doesn't think the situation is that bad or he just wants to issue a warning．"
So far，Mr．Kalliontzis has raised just over?3，000（￡2，362）of his?50，000（￡39，381）goal．If he manages to raise the money，the stickers will be shipped in June 2015．But it appears that car owners using the smart system could get some unnecessary warning messages，because anyone could touch the smart sticker．
24．The author wrote the third paragraph toA．
A．explain how a smart car sticker works
B．a(chǎn)dvise drivers to buy a car sticker
C．show the importance of a sensor
D．tell drivers how to park a car
25．We may infer from the text that in BritainB．
A．car owners don't have to worry about a parking ticket
B．smart car stickers wouldn't work as well as in Germany
C．traffic policemen prefer to call a driver rather than tow his car
D．the Department of Transport thinks highly of smart car stickers
26．The underlined word"discretion"in Paragraph 5can best be replaced by"C"．
A．trouble    B．pressure    C．freedom D．opportunity
27．What would be the best title for the text？D
A．Daniel Kalliontzis-a great inventor
B．Environment-friendly car stickers
C．Parking systems in Europe
D．End of the parking ticket？

8．根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從下框的A-F選項中選出能概括每一段主題的最佳選項．選項中有一項為多余選項．
A．The spreading tea
B．The history of tea growing
C．Changes of tastes for drinks
D．Reducing cancer risks
E．The plant Camellia sinensis
F．A woman's opinion of tea
61．C
Americans are far more knowledgeable about drinks than they were 20years ago．Witness the Starbucks revolution and you'll know where the trend goes．Now，encouraged by recent studies suggesting that it can cut the risk of cancer and heart disease and slow the aging process，tea is enjoying a similar change．Enough fashionable tea houses are springing up to make even longtime coffee drinkers consider switching drinks．
62．A
Tea is available in more places than ever．The Tea Associa-tion of the United States reports that from 1990to 1999，annual sales of the drink grew to 4.6billionfrom 1.8billion．"Green tea is seen by consumers as a'functional food'"-delivering health benefits beyond food itself，says Vierhile．
63．E
Recently published studies point out that only teas that come from the leaves of the plant Camellia sinensis have been shown to contain health benefits．Other herbal teas may taste good，yet they do little more than warm up the drinker．But for Camellia sinensis，the evidence is powerful．In a 1998study，Harvard University researchers found that drinking one cup of black tea a day lowered the risk of heart attack by as much as 44percent compared with non-tea drinkers，and other studies have suggested that the antioxidants（抗氧化劑）in these so-called real teas can also prevent cancer．
64．D
One such antioxidant in green tea is ECGC，a compound 20times as powerful as vitamin E and 200times as powerful as vitamin C．"When people ask me for something good and cheap they can do to reduce their cancer risk，I tell them to drink real tea，"says Mitchell Gaynor，director of medical oncology at New York City's Strang-Cornell Cancer Prevention Center．
65．F
Among those inspired to become a green-tea drinker is Tess Ghilaga，a New York writer who took it up after seeking advice from a nutritionist six years ago．"I've never been a cof-fee drinker，"says Ghilaga，33．"She told me to start drinking green tea for the antioxidant qualities．"Now Ghilaga and her husband habitually make tea-they order theirs from Inpursuitoftea．Com，an Internet tea company．And although tea contains about half the amount of caffeine in a cup of coffee，"you still get such a kick from it，"says Ghilaga．
