     “Life is speeding up. Everyone is getting unwell.”
      This may sound like something someone would say today. But in fact, an unknown citizen who lived
in Rome in AD 52 wrote it.
     We all love new inventions. They are exciting, amazing and can even change our lives.
     But have all these developments really improve the quality of our lives?
     Picture this: You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a
QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the television is getting louder and
louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all
night to get it done. How calm and happy do you feel?
     Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed and tired.
Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who have no telephones, no cars, not
even any electricity often seem to be happier? Perhaps because they lead simpler lives.
     One family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have
today. The grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons Benjamin, 10, and Tomas, 7, spent nine
weeks in a 1940s house. They had no washing machine, microwave, computer or mobile phones.
     The grandmother, Lyn, said, “It was hard physically, but not mentally.” She believed life was less
materialistic. “The more things you have, the more difficult life becomes,” She said. The boys said they
fought less to fight over, such as their computer. Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had
changed from being a “fashionable, beer-drinking granny, to one who cooked things.”
     Here are some simple ways to beat the stress often caused by our inventions!
     Don’t be available all the time. Turn off your mobile phone at certain times of the day. Don’t check
your e-mail every day.
     Don’t reply to somebody as soon as they leave a text message just because you can. It may be fun
at first, but it soon gets annoying.

1．The passage is mainly about        .

A．problems with technology    
B．improvements of our life with technology
C．the important roles technology plays in our everyday life
D．major changes which will be likely to happen to technology

2．The writer quoted what a citizen in ancient Rome said at the beginning of the story in order to        .

A．share a truth about life      
B．tell us what life was like long time ago
C．make us wonder what causes such a thing to happen
D．point out that you experience some big problems and they may be
      the same

3．The family chose to spend some time in a 1940’s house because        .

A．they liked to live simple lives
B．they were curious about how people lived without modern inventions
C．they were troubled by modern inventions
D．living in a different time would be a lot of fun for them

4．What does the word “available” in the suggestion offered by the writer mean?

A．Busy on line
B．Free
C．Be able to
D．Be found by others.

     Counterfeit (假的) medicines are a widespread problem in developing countries. Like other counterfeits,
they look like real products. But counterfeit drugs may contain too little or none of the active ingredients
(原料) of the real thing.
     People do not get the medicine they need. And in some cases the counterfeits cause death. Twenty
children in Bangladesh died last year after being given acetaminophen (醋氨粉). The medications contained
ingredients that looked, smelled and tasted like the real thing. The medicine was produced by a local drug
company that used a dangerous substitute to save money.
     The problem with counterfeit medicines is especially bad in Africa, Asia and Latin America. The
W. H. O. estimates that up to thirty percent of the medicines on sale in many of those countries are
counterfeit.              .
     The W. H. O. says counterfeits make up less than one percent of the illegal drug market in countries like
the United States, Canada, Japan, and New Zealand.
     But the agency also says as much as fifty percent of the medicine sold on the Internet is counterfeit.
     Much is being done to fight counterfeit drugs. Several companies are developing ways to make
counterfeits easier to identify. And there are existing methods, like a machine that can quickly identify
chemicals in pills to confirm if the pills are real. Other ideas include things like special tracking codes for drug
packages. People could send a text message with the code and get a message back proving that what they
bought is listed in a database. Some drug makers and other companies put three-dimensional images called holograms (條形碼) on their products as a security device.                                                                   

1. What advice can we get from Paragraph 4? (no more than 8words)
    ______________________________________________.                                                                
2. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? (no more than 10 words)
    _______________________________________________.                                                              
3. Complete the following statement with proper words. (no more that 4 words)
    A local drug company produced counterfeit medicines by using dangerous substitutes 
   ______________________________________________________________________________.
4. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with a proper sentence. (no more than 10 words)

    As a student, you must be excited to know something about American school students. In fact, just like
in China, in the United States, high school is usually divided into two periods, the first two or three years are
called "junior high school" and the other is "senior high school".
    In China, children enjoy free education of nine years, but in the United States, the students enjoy free
education until they are 18 years old. As a result of the free education system (制度), American children
have little difficulty in going to senior high school.
    American high school students can take part in a lot of activities outside of the classroom. The activities
are organized by the school, such as joining a music group or a sports team. Certainly, just like us students
in China, American students have to work hard in order to get good marks if they want to go to a good
university. They take classes in all kinds of subjects all through the high school period. And those who come
out with low marks at the end of a school year and who should repeat a grade are often allowed to go on to
the next grade.
    In American high schools, there is fighting or hurting or other kinds of bad behaviors. So children who
want to go to university are often sent to suburban (郊區(qū)的) high schools, where most students want to go
to university and the atmosphere (氛圍) is quite different.
1. Activities outside of the classroom refer to ______.
[     ]
A. what the students do after class in school
B. what the students learn in extra classes
C. what a music group or a sports team do
D. what the teachers do after class for the students
2. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
[     ]
A. The time of free education in China is longer than that in America.
B. Those who get good marks can go to a good university.
C. American students can take all kinds of subjects during the high school period.
D. They can be allowed to join the next grade even if they fail the school-year exam.
3. The writer of the passage tells us the truth that ______.
[     ]
A. the atmosphere in high schools is quite different from that in a university
B. none of the schools in cities are good for learning
C. suburban high schools are good places for learning

     British towns and cities have rich experience in providing accommodation (膳宿) for students and there
are many cheap, comfortable and safe places to live.
     You should always try to arrange your long-term accommodation before leaving home. Your school
should be able to help you with it. When you are accepted by a school, you will usually receive a package of
information including accommodation information. Complete the accommodation application form and return
it before the deadline (最后期限). If the school accommodation is not available, the accommodation advisory
(顧問的) office of your school can help you find private accommodation.
     If you're coming to the UK for the first time, accommodation provided by your school might be the most
suitable choice. This is a choice taken by more than half of the international students. There are plenty of
advantages of living in accommodation provided by the school: you can live close to where you are studying;
you will get to know other students easily; and most importantly, you will be living in a safer environment.
This kind of accommodation is also affordable: a room in a self-catering (自己做飯的) student apartment
usually costs from 180 to 360 pounds per month. To live in a place where meals are included you are expected
to pay from 320 to 400 pounds per month.
     If you choose to rent accommodation in private houses, the choices are lodgings, private hostels (招待所)
and bedsits (臥室兼起居室). In a lodging, your landlord/landlady lives in the same house, possibly with his /
her family, and prepares meals for you. For hostel accommodation and lodgings where meals are included,
you can expect to pay from 300 to 400 pounds per month. For bedsit, you would pay from 200 to 380 pounds
per month.

     Is learning a foreign language ever easy? Yes. If you are five and move to another country, you will
quickly pick up the language. But what about for the rest of us who are no longer five, and need to be
polite when traveling for business or for pleasure? I think that answer is also yes. Language learning can
be easy if you don't want or need to learn too much. 
    The key to successful language learning in my mind is not to set the goal too high. It is rather like
running. Even if you run twice a week, you don't necessarily want to be able to run a marathon. You
might just want to maintain a level of fitness. I think the same can be true for language learning.
     Let's get back to the goal. If you decide to learn ten words in a foreign language before visiting the
country, you know that you will manage to do this. However, if you decide to attain conversational
fluency, unless you are an exceptionally talented individual, you will probably fail and give up in disgust.
     It is also far easier to start learning a foreign language than to finish. In other words, the better you
are, the slower it can be to improve, because you will get stuck with grammar, making sentences,
learning less common words, etc. If you are only trying to learn a few foreign words and phrases, you
will enjoy faster progress, have more fun, and won't have to spend too much time. 
    The idea of learning only a few hundred words in a language, and then stopping, isn't the usual
approach to language learning, but it can be a very rewarding and entertaining activity.
1. In the writer's opinion, it is easy for adults to learn English if _____.
[     ]
A. they are especially talented individuals
B. they don't want or need to learn too much
C. they have to spend a lot of time on it
D. they have a chance to go abroad
2. The writer intends to express that learning only a few hundred words in a language, and then
    stopping, _____.
[     ]
A. is the usual method of learning a language
B. is of no use for learning a language
C. may cause a lot of mistakes while traveling
D. can be rewarding and entertaining
3. The writer believes that if you want to be good at a foreign language, you will probably _____.
[     ]
A. forget your own goals
B. become a gifted language learner
C. get tired of learning it
D. reach your learning goal in advance
4. The best title of this passage would be _____.
[     ]
A. Easy Language Learning
B. Hard Language Learning
C. Fluency in a Foreign Language
D. A Method of Language Learning

      People with less education suffer fewer stressful days, according to a report in the current issue of the
Journal of Health and Social Behavior.
      However, the study also found that when less-educated people did suffer stress it was more severe and
had a stronger effect on their health.
      From this, researchers have concluded that the day-to-day factors that cause stress are regular. Where
you are in society determines the kinds of problems that you have each day, and how well you will cope with
them.
      The research team interviewed a national sample of 1, 031 adults daily for eight days about their stress
level and health. People without a high school diploma reported stress on 30 percent of the study days, people
with a high school degree reported stress 38 percent of the time, and people with college degrees reported
stress 44 percent of the time.
     "Less advantaged people are less healthy on a daily basis and are more likely to have downward turns in
their health." leading researcher, Dr. Joseph Grzywacz of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center,
said in a prepared statement."The downward turns in health were connected with daily stressors (緊張刺激物),
and the effect of daily stressors on their health is much more damaging for the less advantaged."
      "If something happens every day, maybe it's not seen as a stressor." Grzywacz says. "Maybe it is just life."
1. Stress level is closely related to ______.
[     ]
A. family size
B. social position
C. body weight
D. work experience
2. Which group reported the biggest number of stressful days?
[     ]
A. People without any education.
B. People without high school degrees.
C. People with high school degrees.
D. People with college degrees.
3. The less advantaged people are, the greater ______.
[     ]
A. the effect of stress on their health is
B. the effect of education on their health is
C. the level of their education is
D. the degree of their health concern is
4. Less-educated people report fewer days of stress possibly because ______.
[     ]
A. they don't want to tell truth
B. they don't want to face the truth
C. stress is too common a factor in their life
D. their stress is much greater

      When students think of learning a foreign language, the first thought is of books, exercises, and audio
cassettes. Those are important to learning but sometimes a little bit boring. Therefore, it is time for us to
spice things up a bit.
      Things like a cellphone can keep your interest level high. It's a perfect study material. You have it with
you day after day, you are familiar with how it works and you can use it to practice whenever you have time.
You don't need to have your books by your side or stay in your room to listen to tapes. Let's take a look at
how to add your cellphone to your study tools.
      Set up your cellphone to use the language you want to study. Go to the menu, find settings, locate
language and change it to English or Spanish, which benefits your language learning.
      Look at the buttons and connect those items with the new vocabulary. This enables you to master simple
words and phrases with little effort. For example, each time you open up your cellphone you'll see "messages",
"games" and "calls made". These words begin to take root if you see them again and again.
      When you have time, take out your cellphone and start hitting buttons. You'll be surprised at all the
vocabulary you can learn by playing with the different menu items. Some things you'll recognize immediately
and others you can guess just by where you find them.
      It can keep your learning fresh and interesting. And that's important because boredom is a big problem
with language learners. You need variety and a cellphone is one way to get it.
1. The underlined part "spice things up" in the first paragraph means "______".
[     ]
A. make things interesting
B. make things realistic
C. make things helpful
D. make things obvious
2. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of using a cellphone as a study material?
[     ]
A. We can study with it at any moment.
B. It keeps our learning interest high.
C. We can use it to practice freely.
D. It offers the chance to practice learning.
3. By playing with a cellphone, you can ______.
[     ]
A. learn the words in the menu
B. remember the messages sent by others
C. improve the techniques of playing games
D. become familiar with different kinds of languages
4. Why did the author write the passage?
[     ]
A. To stress the importance of language learning.
B. To introduce the latest ways of language learning.
C. To inform how to keep your learning fresh.
D. To explain how to use cellphones to learn language.
