Apple has cleverly ta
25、ken advantage of the power of the letter “i” and many other brands are following suit. The BBCs iPlayer which allows Web users to watch TV programs on the Internet adopted the title in 2008. A lovely bear popular in the US and UK that plays music and video is called “iTeddy”. A slimmed-down version
26、of Londons Independent newspaper was launched last week under the name “i”.In general, single-letter prefixes (前缀) have been popular since the 1990s, when terms such as e-mail and e-commerce first came into use. Most “i” products are targeted at young people and considering the major readers of Inde
27、pendents “i”, its no surprise that theyve selected this fashionable name. But its hard to see whats so special about the letter “i”. Why not use “a”, “b”, or “c” instead? According to Tony Thorne, head of the Language Center at Kings College, London, “i” works because its meaning has become ambiguou
28、s. When Apple uses “i”, no one knows whether it means Internet, information, individual or interactive, Thorne told BBC Magazines. “Even when Apple created the iPod, it seems it didnt have one clear definition,” he says. “However, thanks to Apple, the term is now associated with portability (轻便) .”a
29、dds Thorne.Clearly the letter “i” also agrees with the idea that the Western World is centered on the individual. Each person believ es they have their own needs, and we love personalized products for this reason. Along with “Google” and “blog”, readers of BBC Magazines voted “i” as one of the top 2
30、0 words that have come to define the last decade. But as history shows, people grow tired of fads. From the 1900s to 1990s, products with “2000” in their names became fashionable as the year was associated with all things advanced and modern. However, as we entered the new century, the trend inevita
31、bly disappeared. 56. People use iPlayer to _.A. listen to music B. make a call C. watch TV programs online D. read newspapers57. We can infer that the Independents “i” is aimed at _. A. young readers B. old readers C. fashionable women D. engineers58. The underlined word “ambiguous” means “_”.A. pop
32、ular B. uncertain C. definite D. unique59. Nowadays, the “i” term often reminds people of the products which are _. A. portable B. environmentally friendly C. advanced D. recyclable60. The writer suggests that _.A. “i” products are often of high qualityB. iTeddy is alive bearC. the letter “b” replac
33、es letter “i” to name the productsD. the popularity of “i” products may not last longBA food additive is any substance (物质) that is added to food. Many people are put off by the idea of “chemicals in food”. The truth is that all food is made up of chemicals. Natural substances like milk, as well as
34、man-made ones like drinks on sale in the market, can be described by chemical formulas (分子式). Some chemical substances are indeed harmful, but a person who refused to consume any chemicals would find nothing to eat.The things we eat can be divided into natural and man-made substances. Some people fe
35、el that only natural foods are healthy and that all man-made ingredients (原料) are to be avoided. But many natural chemicals, found in plants and animals, are harmful when eaten, and some laboratorymade substances increase the nutritional value of food Other chemicals have natural and man-made forms
36、that are exactly alike: vitamin C is vitamin C, whether it comes from a test tube or from an orange Like “chemical”, “man-made” doesnt necessarily mean “not fit to eat”.Food additives are used for many reasons. We add sugar and salt and other things to foods we prepare at home to make them taste bet
37、ter. Food producers have developed a range of additives that stabilize, thicken, harden, keep dry, keep wet, keep firm, or improve the appearance of their products. Additives can make food more convenient or nutritious, give it a longer shelf life, and make it more attractive to the consumer, thus i
38、ncreasing the sales and profits of the producers.Food additives are presently the centre of a storm of serious argument. Food producers have been known to use additives that have not been proved safe; some substances in common use have been proved unsafe and have been taken off the market. Many peop
39、le feel theres a risk of eating food to which anything has been added. But food additives are now regulated by the FDA of the federal government, and new additives are subjected to strict testing before they can be placed on the market. For most people, the chances of developing serious side effects
40、 from the long-term use of presently approved food additives are very slim.61.From the passage we can learn that_. A. all foods consist of chemical substancesB. it is right to reject chemicals in foodC. food additives are harmful to our healthD. natural foods are much safer than man-made ones62. Whi
41、ch of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Foods with more additives have higher nutritional value. B. To ensure food safety, the FDA will ban food additives. C. Foods free of additives can keep a much longer shelf life. D. Food additives can improve the quality of foods in many ways.6
42、3. We can infer from the regulation to the food additives by the FDA that_. A. new additives will be approved more easily than before B. food producers wont be allowed to use new food additives C. food with common-used additives will be taken off the market D. food additives will be used in a safer
43、and more scientific way64. According to the writer, the food additive is _. A. worryingB. acceptable C. poisonousD. avoidableCIf you havent heard or seen anything about Road Rage in the last few months, youve probably been avoiding the media. There have been countless stories about this new and scar
44、y phenomenon, considered a type of aggressive driving. You have most likely encountered aggressive driving or Road Rage recently if you drive at all.While drunk driving remains a critical problem, the facts about aggressive driving are surely as disturbing. For instance, according to the National Hi
45、ghway Transportation Safety Association, 41,907 people died on the highways last year. Of those deaths, the agency estimates that about two-thirds were caused at least in part by aggressive driving behavior.Why is this phenomenon occurring more than ever now, and why is it something that seemed almo
46、st nonexistent a few short years ago? Experts have several theories, and all are probably partially correct. One suggestion is sheer overcrowding. In the last decade, the number of cars on the roads has increased by more than 11 percent, and the number of miles driven has increased by 35 percent. Ho
47、wever, the number of new road miles has only increased by 1 percent. That means more cars in the same amount of space; and the problem is magnified in urban areas. Also, people have less time and more things to do. With people working and trying to fit extra chores and activities into the day, stres
48、s levels have never been higher. Stress creates anxiety, which leads to short tempers. These factors, when combined in certain situations, can spell Road Rage.You may think you are the last person who would drive aggressively, but you might be surprised. For instance, have you ever yelled out loud a
49、t a slower driver, sounded the horn long and hard at another car, or sped up to keep another driver from passing? If you recognize yourself in any of these situations, watch out!Whether you are getting angry at other drivers, or another driver is visibly upset with you, there are things you can do t
50、o avoid any major conflict. If you are susceptible (easily influenced) to Road Rage, the key is to discharge your emotion in a healthy way. If you are the target of another drivers rage, do everything possible to get away from the other driver safely, including avoiding eye contact and getting out o
51、f their way. 65. The first sentence in Para. 1 implies that _. A. one may be angered by media reports and wants to avoid themB. the media created the term “Road Rage” only a few months agoC. Road Rage has received much media coverage in the last few monthsD. people not interested in the media know l
52、ittle about recent happenings66. The underlined word “spell” in Para. 3 means _. A. relieveB. causeC. spreadD. prevent67. Which of the following characterizes aggressive driving?A. Talking while driving.B. Driving at high speed.C. Sounding the horn when passing.D. Shouting at another driver.68. The
53、last paragraph is intended to _. A. tell people how to deal with Road RageB. inform people how aggressive drivers could beC. show people how to control themselves when angryD. warn people against eye contact with another driverDUntil last spring, Nia Parker and the other kids in her neighborhood wen
54、t to school on Bus 59. But as fuel prices rose, the school district needed to find a way to cut its transportation costs. So the schools busing company redrew its route map, canceling Nias bus. Now Nia and her neighbors travel the half mile to school via a “walking school bus”a group of kids, superv
55、ised (监护) by an adult or two, who make the walk together.Many parents are delighted to see their kids walking to school, partly because many did so themselves. According to a 1979 survey, nearly half of school kids walked or biked to school, compared with only 16 percent in 2011. Modern parents have
56、 been unwilling to let kids walk to school for fear of traffic, crime or simple bullying, but with organized adult supervision, those concerns have reduced.Schools and busing companies are finding other ways to save. In rural areas where busing is a must, some schools have even chosen four-day schoo
57、l weeks. Busing companies instruct drivers to cancel extra stops from routes and to turn off the engine while idling(挂空挡). They are also using computer software to determine the most fuel-efficient routes, which arent always the shortest ones.There could be disadvantages, however, to the busing cutb
58、acks. If every formerly bused student begins walking to school, its an environmental winbut if too many of their parents decide to drive them instead, the overall carbon footprint can grow. Replacing buses with many more parent-driven cars can also increase safety risks. A 2011 report concluded stud
59、ents are 13 times safer on a school bus than in a passenger car, since buses have fewer accidents and withstand them better due to their size. And some students complain about the long morning hikes, particularly when the route contains a really big hill.69. In regards to walking to school, modern p
60、arents seem much concerned with the _.A. safety of their kids B. kids physical strengthC. time spent on the way D. changes in the route70. To save money, some schools choose to _.A. shorten the school week B. take the shortest routesC. stop using school buses D. use fuel-efficient buses71. Busing cu
61、tbacks may lead to _.A. fewer complaints about long morning hikesB.morestudentstakingpublictransportationC. an increase in carbon dioxide emissions D. a decrease in the safety of school busesEI dont ever want to talk about being a woman scientist again. There was a time in my life when people asked
62、constantly for stories about what its like to work in a field dominated by men. I was never very good at telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting. What I do find interesting is the origin of the universe, the shape of space-time and the nature of black holes. At 19, wh
63、en I began studying astrophysics, it did not bother me in the least to be the only woman in the classroom. But while earning my Ph.D. at MIT and then as a post-doctor doing space research, the issue started to bother me. My every achievement-jobs, research papers, awards-was viewed through the lens
64、of gender(性别) politics. So were my failures. Sometimes, when I was pushed into an argument on left brain versus(相对于) right brain,ornature versus nurture (培育), I would instantly fight fiercely on my behalf and all womankind.Then one day a few years ago, out of my mouth came a sentence that would even
65、tually become my reply to any and all provocations: I dont talk about that anymore. It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didnt want to deal with gender issues. Why should curing sexism be yet another terrible burden on every female scientist? After all, I
66、dont study sociologyorpolitical theory.Today I research and teach at Barnard, a womens college in New York City. Recently, someone asked me how may of the 45 students in my class were women. You cannot imagine my satisfaction at being able to answer, 45. I know some of my students worry how they wil
67、l manage their scientific research and a desire for children. And I dont dismiss those concerns. Still, I dont tell them “war” stories. Instead, I have given them this: the visual of their physics professor heavily pregnant doing physics experiments. And in turn they have given me the image of 45 wo
68、men driven by a love of science. And thats a sight worth talking about.72.Why doesnt the author want to talk about being a woman scientist again?A She feels unhappy working in male-dominated fields.B She is fed up with the issue of gender discrimination.C She is not good at telling stories of the ki
69、nd.D She finds space research more important.73.From Paragraph 2, we can infer that people would attribute the authors failures to _.A the very fact that she is a womanB her involvement in gender politicsC her over-confidence as a female astrophysicistD the burden she bears in a male-dominated socie
70、ty74.Why does the author feel great satisfaction when talking about her class?A Female students no longer have to bother about gender issues.B Her students performance has brought back her confidence.C Her female students can do just as well as male students.D More female students are pursuing scien
71、ce than before.75.What does the image the author presents to her students suggest?A Women students neednt have the concerns of her generation.B Women have more barriers on their way to academic success.C Women can balance a career in science and having a family.D Women now have fewer problems pursui
