Uncivilized behavior by passengers unacceptable
For the first time, airline passengers have been blacklisted for uncivilized behavior. Their names will remain on the blacklist for one or two years, according to an announcement by the China Air Transport Association on Saturday. The blacklisting means they will not be able to travel by air until their names are removed from the list.
Blacklisting passengers who disobey the rules for traveling by air and so place their own interests before everything else, including safety, has long been overdue (遲到的，延遲的).
There have been frequent reports of passengers making a scene when their flight was delayed or when they believed that they were not treated as they should be on a flight.
Yet it is natural for some flights to be delayed because of reasons such as bad weather or mechanical problems that need to be solved. However, some passengers seem to take it for granted that their flight must take off at the time stated on their ticket, and they even assume that the members of the cabin crew are simply there to do their bidding(吩咐).
They forget that they should behave themselves in the first place and that respect is reciprocal (互相給與的).There is no reason for them to be respected when they do not show enough respect for others.
Observing rules can never be over-emphasized when it comes to flight safety. No one has the right to disregard the rules for any reason. Of course, airlines should provide quality services to meet the needs of passengers. Yet, even if passengers are not satisfied with the service provided, there is still no reason for them to flout the rules that are designed for the safety of all.
The blacklisting of these three passengers should serve for others to know they have to toe the line (順從集體).
（1）Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.Never before have airline passengers been blacklisted.
B.At no time should flights be delayed, whatever the reasons.
C.Members of the cabin crew should be at the passengers' service at any moment.
D.If an airline passenger is blacklisted, he or she will never be allowed to travel by air.
（2）The underlined word “observing” in paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to ________.
A.abolishing
B.violating
C.setting
D.obeying
（3）According Paragraph 4, the author's attitude towards some passengers is ________.
A.Tolerate
B.Curious
C.Critical
D.Neutral
（4）The text is most probably taken from ________.
A.a research paper
B.a newspaper report
C.an advertisement
D.a flight guide

A transistor is a small electronic device that transfers or carries electronic current. Scientists hope these new 2D transistors will be used for building high-resolution（高分辨率）displays that need very little energy.

Two groups of scientists created these 2D transistors. They report that the transistors are only a few atoms thick.

Usually transistors are made with the element silicon（硅）. Computer processors, memory chips, TV screens and other electronic devices contain billions of silicon-based transistors. But these very small electrical parts have certain limitations.

Dimitris Ioannou is an electrical engineering professor at George Mason University. He says the traditional transistor has been improved as much as it can be.He adds that researchers have been looking for new materials with special features and they want transistors to be seen through and soft.

“If the layers are very thin, the transistor can become flexible, so it doesn't have to be rigid（堅硬的）, like it would be in a silicon chip. So people can think of applications like wearable electronics, television screens and other things,” said Ioannou.

These new transistors can also carry higher current. They also can move the current much faster than traditional transistors. This is important for high-definition screens.

Dimitris Ioannou says the scientific success could prove very useful in the future. "Now, how good and how useful it will be, it's still in the stage of research, but it certainly is an advance," said Ioannou.

【1】Which of the following statements about the newly created transistor is TRUE?

A. They are expected to be used in high-resolution displays.

B. The transistors are made with the element silicon.

C. They are rigid, just like traditional transistors.

D. They have already been put into actual use.

【2】What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 mean?

A. The traditional transistors have been changed into two-dimensional ones.

B. Many of the traditional transistors have been improved over the years.

C. The traditional transistor has been developed to its fullest.

D. The traditional transistor has been developed quite well.

【3】What is Dimitris Ioannou's attitude towards the creation of the new transistors?

A. Negative. B. Neutral.

C. Indifferent. D. Positive.

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
Baby girls make their way to dolls as soon as they can crawl, while boys will head for the toy cars, a study has shown. The findings, the first to show consistent differences in very young babies, suggest there is a biological basis to their preferences.
Psychologists Dr Brenda Todd from City University London carried out an experiment involving 90 babies aged nine months to 36 months. They were allowed to choose from seven toys. Some were boys' toys - a car, a digger, a ball and a blue teddy. The rest were girls' toys: a pink teddy, a doll and a cooking set. They were placed a meter away from the toys, and could pick whichever toy they liked. Their choice and the amount of time they spent playing with each toy were recorded.
Of the youngest children (nine to 14 months), girls spent much longer playing with the doll than boys, and boys spent much more time with the car and ball than the girls did. Among the two-and three-year-olds, girls spent 50 percent of the time playing with the doll while only two boys briefly touched it. The boys spent almost 90 percent of their time playing with cars, which the girls barely touched. There was no link between the parents' view on which toys were more appropriate for boys or girls, and the children's choice.
Dr Brenda Todd said: “Children of this age are already exposed to much socialization. Boys may be given ‘toys that go' while girls get toys they can care for, which may help shape their preference. But these findings agree with the former idea that children show natural interests in particular kinds of toys. There could be a biological basis for their choices. Males through evolution have been adapted to prefer moving objects, probably through hunting instincts（本能）, while girls prefer warmer colors such as pink, the color of a newborn baby.”
（1）Baby boys and girls have different toy preferences probably because.
A.baby boys are much more active
B.baby girls like bright colors more
C.parents have an effect on their views
D.there may be a biological difference
（2）Both baby boys and baby girls like to play withaccording to the study.
A.a ball
B.a teddy
C.a car
D.a doll
（3）What can we infer from Paragraph 3 ?
A.Nine-month-old baby boys don't play with dolls at all．
B.Two-year-old baby girls sometimes play with cars and balls．
C.Parents should teach their babies to share each other's toys．
D.The older the babies are, the more obvious their preference is．
（4）What conclusion did Dr. Brenda Todd draw from the results of the study?
A.Adults bring about babies' preference on purpose.
B.Babies' preference isn't affected by social surroundings.
C.Baby boys preferring to moving toys will be good at hunting.
D.Baby girls preferring warmer colors will be warm-hearted.

【題目】任務型閱讀Easy Ways to Keep Your Brain Sharp
Everyone is forgetful, but as we age, we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bit—and that can be a very annoying thing.Read on for some techniques worth trying.
⒈
People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50 percent reduced chance of Alzheimer's disease (早老性癡呆癥), according to a recent study.Something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do. There's evidence that people who have a purpose in life or who are working on long or short-term goals appear to do better. In other words, keep your brain looking forward.
⒉ Go for a walk
Mildly raised glucose (葡萄糖) levels can harm the area of the brain that helps you form memories and physical activity can help get blood glucose down to normal levels. In fact, exercise produces chemicals that are good for your brain.
⒊ Learn something new
Take a Spanish class online, join a drawing club, or learn to play cards. A study found that mental stimulation (刺激) limits the weakening effects of aging on memory and the mind. But the best thing for your brain is when you learn something new and are physically active at the same time.or go dancing with your friends.
A. Focus on the future.
B. This can be especially harmful to the aged.

As you know it, food shortages have hit many countries in the world and even cause social unrest in some areas. But who is responsible for the current world food crisis? First, annual world grain output has declined because climate change. Then lots of farmland have been lost due to the rapid development of industry and urbanization. Then how should we do to deal with the problem? On one hand, we should focus on the environmental protection or improve the ecology. On other hand, strict measures should be taking to protect farmland. And for the moment, I think, we should study hardly to develop sciences and solve the food shortage in the future.

Dear Rex,

I’m sorry to hear that you had a quarrel with your parent because they had read your diary with your permission. Don’t get annoying about it. I think they do so because they concerned about you. Please understand that they love you.

First of all, you can have a open talk with them and tell them it is not good to keep an eye on you in this way, but that you have the right to keep your own secrets. Besides, you should learn to communicate effective with them. Let them know your ideas, that can avoid unnecessary misunderstanding between you and in your parents.

I wish you all the best!
