Today my friends show off the more unpleasant aspects of their personalities via Facebook.No longer hidden，theyre thrown in my face like TV commercialsunavoidable and endless advertisements for the worst of their personalities. Take Fred.If you were to have lunch with him，youd find him warm ，and self-effacing( 谦逊的 ) Read his Facebook and youll realize hes an unbearable，food-obsessed boring 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 2 页，共 13 页 - - - - - - - - - man.Hed pause to have a cup of coffee on his way to save a drowning manand then write about it. Take Andy.You won t find a smarter CEO anywhere ，but now he s a CEO without a company to run.So he plays Mafia Wars on Facebook.He s doing well level 731.Thanks to Facebook ，I know he s playing about 18 hours a day.Andy，youve run four companies and this is how you spend your downtime ？What happened to golf ？What happened to getting another job? Take Liz.She is positive that the flu vaccine will kill us all and that we should avoid it.And then comes Chris who likes to post at least 20 times a day on every website he can find ，so I get to read his thoughts twice ，once on Facebook and once on Twitter. In real life ，I dont see these sides of people.Face to face， my friends show me their best.Theyre nice，smart people.But face to Facebook ，my friends are like a blind date which goes horribly wrong. Im left with a dilemma.Who is my real friend ？Is it the Liz I have lunch with or the anti-vaccine mad woman on Facebook ？Is it the Fred I can grab a sandwich with or the Fred who weeps if he s at a party and the wine isnt up to his standards? 21 Whats Andy probably busy in doing now? AHes running his company. BHes playing golf all day. CHes looking for another job. DHes playing computer games. 22 The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to “”Aa dilemma Bmy real friend CFacebook DTwitter 23 The text is developed mainly by . Agiving examples Bfollowing the time order Clisting figures Draising questions BThe speaker，a teacher from a community college，addressed a sympathetic audience.Heads nodded in agreement when he said，“ High school English teachers are not doing their jobs. ”He described the inadequacies of his students，all high school graduates who can use language only at a grade 9 level.I was unable to determine from his answers to my questions how this grade 9 level had been established. My topic is not standards nor its decline What the speaker was really saying is that he is no longer 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 3 页，共 13 页 - - - - - - - - - young；he has been teaching for sixteen years，and is able to think and speak like a mature adult. My point is that the frequent complaint of one generation about the one immediately following it is inevitable.It is also human nature to look for the reasons for our dissatisfaction.Before English became a school subject in the late nineteenth century，it was difficult to find the target of the blame for language deficiencies But since then， English teachers have been under constant attack. The complainers think they have hit upon an original idea.As their own command of the language improves，they notice that young people do not have this same ability.Unaware that their own ability has developed through the years ，they assume the new generation of young people must be hopeless in this respect.To the eyes and ears of sensitive adults the language of the young always seems inadequate. Since this concern about the decline and fall of the English language is not perceived as a generational phenomenon but rather as something new and peculiar to today s young people，it naturally follows that todays English teachers cannot be doing their jobs.Otherwise，young people would not have a poor command of English. 24 In the authors opinion，the speaker . Agave a correct judgment of the English level of the students Bhad exaggerated the language problems of the students Cwas right in saying that English teachers were not doing their jobs Dcould think and speak intelligently 25 The authors attitude towards the speakers remarks is . Aneutral Bpositive Ccritical Dcompromising 26 It can be concluded from the passage that . Ait is justifiable to include English as a school subject Bthe author disagrees with the speaker over the standard of English at Grade 9 level CEnglish language teaching is by no means an easy job Dlanguage improvement needs time and effort C Sunny countries are often poor.A shame，then，that solar power is still quite expensive.Eight19 ，a British company by Cambridge University，has，however，invented a novel way to get round this.In return for a deposit of around 10 it is supplying poor Kenyan families with a solar cell able to generate 2.5 watts of electricity，a battery that can deliver a three amp( 安培 ) current to store this electricity ，and a lamp whose bulb is a light- emitting diode( 二极管 )The firm thinks that this system，once the battery is fully charged，is enough to light two small rooms and to power a mobile-phone charger for seven hours.Then，next day，it can be put outside and charged back up 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 4 页，共 13 页 - - - - - - - - - again. The trick is that，to be able to use the electricity ，the systems keeper must buy a scratch cardfor as little as a dollaron which is printed a reference number.The keeper sends this reference， plus the serial number of the household solar unit ， by SMS to Eight19.The company s server will respond automatically with an access code to the unit. Users may consider that they are paying an hourly rate for their electricity.In fact，they are paying off the cost of the unit.After buying around 80 worth of scratch cardswhich Eight19 expects would take the average family around 18 monthsthe user will own it.He will then have the option of continuing to use it for nothing，or of trading it in for a bigger one ，perhaps driven by a 10-watt solar cell. In that case， he would go then through the same process again， paying off the additional cost of the upgraded kit at a slightly higher rate.Users would therefore increase their electricity supply steadily and affordably. According to Eight19 s figures，this looks like a good deal for customers.The firm believes the average energy-starved Kenyan spends around 10 a month on oil enough to fuel a couple of smoky lampsplus 2 on charging his mobile phone in the market-place.Regular users of one of Eight19 s basic solar units will spend around half that ，before owning it completely.Meanwhile，as the cost of solar technology falls ，it should get even cheaper. 27 The underlined word “get round” in the first paragraph can be replaced by “”Amake use of Bcome up with Clook into Ddeal with 28 What should the user do when the electricity in the battery is used up? ABuy a scratch card. BRecharge it outside. CBuy another solar cell. DReturn it to the company. 29 How much would users pay for the cell and scratch cards before they own a 2.5-watt solar cell? AAround 10. BAround 80. CAround 90. DAround 180. 30 It can be inferred from the last paragraph that . AKenyan families would find it difficult to afford the solar cell Busing the solar cell would help Kenyan families save money Cfew Kenyan families use mobile phones for lack of electricity Dthe company will make a great profit from selling solar cells 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 5 页，共 13 页 - - - - - - - - - D Kodaks decision to file for bankruptcy （破产） protection is a sad, though not unexpected, turning point for a leading American corporation that pioneered consumer photography and dominated the film market for decades, but ultimately failed to adapt to the digital revolution.Although many attribute Kodaks downfall to“complacency( 自满) , ” that explanation doesnt acknow-ledge the lengths to which the company went to reinvent itself. Decades ago, Kodak anticipated that digital photography would overtake film and in fact, Kodak invented the first digital camera in 1975 but in a fateful decision, the company chose to shelf its new discovery to focus on its traditional film business.It wasn t that Kodak was blind to the future, said Rebecca Henderson, a professor at Harvard Business School, but rather that it failed to execute on a strategy to confront it. By the time the company realized its mistake, it was too late.Kodak is an example of a firm that was very much aware that they had to adapt, and spent a lot of money trying to do so, but ultimately failed. Large companies have a difficult time switching into new markets because there is a temptation to put existing assets into the new businesses.Although Kodak anticipated the inevitable rise of digital photography, its corporate （企业的） culture was too rooted in the successes of the past for it to make the clean break necessary to fully embrace the future. They were a companystuck in time. Their history was so important to them. Now their history has become a liability.Kodaks downfall over the last several decades was dramatic. In 1976, thecompany commanded 90% of the market for photographic film and 85% of the market for cameras. But the 1980s brought new competition from Japanese film company Fuji Photo, which undermined Kodak by offering lower prices for film and photo supplies. Kodaks decision not to pursue the role of official film for the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics was a major miscalculation. The bid went instead to Fuji, which exploited its sponsorship to win a permanent foothold in the marketplace.31. What do we learn about Kodak?A) It went bankrupt all of a sudden.B) It is approaching its downfall.C) It initiated the digital revolution in the film industry.D) It is playing a dominant role in the film market.32. Why does the author mention Kodaks invention of the first digital camera?A) To show its early attempt to reinvent itself.B) To show its effort to overcome complacency.C) To show its quick adaptation to the digital revolution.D) To show its will to compete with Japans Fuji photo.33. Why do large companies have difficulty switching to new markets?A) They find it costly to give up their existing assets.B) They tend to be slow in confronting new challenges.C) They are unwilling to invest in new technology.名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 6 页，共 13 页 - - - - - - - - - D) They are deeply stuck in their glorious past.34. What does the author say Kodaks history has become?A) A burden. B) A mirror. C) A joke. D) A challenge. 35. What was Kodaks fatal mistake?A) Its blind faith in traditional photography. B) Its failure to see Fuji photo s emergence.C) Its refusal to sponsor the 1984 Olympics. D) Its overconfidence in its corporate culture. 第二节（共5 小题；每小题2 分，满分 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Mobile Phones：Hang Up or Keep Talking?Millions of people are using mobile phones today.In many places ， it is actually considered unusual not to have one. 36 They found that the phones are more than a means of communication having a mobile phone shows that they re cool and connected. The explosions around the world in mobile phone use make some health professionals worried.Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones.Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity (负面报道 ) of such ideas. 37 On the other hand， signs of change in the issues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning equipment.In one case，a traveling salesman had to retire at a young age because of serious memory loss. 38 Thi
