in to provide us with entertainment,but it seems that even regular moviegoers like us have a big impact on how a movie turns out too.For decades now,film studios have used so-called test screenings to get feedback from members of the public before a movie comes out.While test audience members are usually asked to fill in a questionnaire after a screening,telling the film studio what they liked and didnt like,media giant Disney has come up with a more high-tech solution.According to a paper published this summer by the companys researchers,Disney is measuring test audiences reactions by using special cameras placed inside cinemas.Pairing the cameras with custom software,the company can track what each audience member is feeling at any point in the movie,from anger to joy.This works by mapping 68 different points on each audience members face.The cameras can see in the dark,and the software can figure out a persons mood based on the slightest of facial expressions.Its hoped that this new method will allow more detailed feedback from test audiences.Rather than relying on audience members to recall their feelings after the movies over,it can accurately read their reactions in real-time.Test screenings are highly valued in the movie industry,and several well-known movies have been greatly altered following feedback.Viewers of E.T.,the Extra-Terrestrial(1982),would have left the cinema feeling a whole lot differently if it werent for its test audiences feedback.“In one cut of the film that was tested,E.T.died instead of going home in his spaceship.You wont be surprised to hear that the test audience in question didnt warm to this ending at all,”wrote media website Den of Geek.But for those who are concerned about privacy,the cameras wont be installed in public cinemas.After all,unless youre part of a test audience,being in front of the camera is best left to the movie stars.1、Why are test screenings necessary?ATo amuse us.BTo influence a movie.CTo get reactions of the audience.DTo spy on the audience.2、How does the high-tech method work?AAudiences recall their detailed feelings.BThe cameras can read accurate feedback from the audience.CThe company can track each audience member.DThe company are measuring audiences reactions.3、What do we know about E.T?AIt doesnt warm the audience.BIt altered audiences feedback.CThe original ending is different.DE.T died in his spaceship.4、What can we infer from the passage?APeople worry about privacy.BThe cameras wont be put in public cinemas.CThe technology of test screenings is reliable.DYou can be in front of the camera.22（8 分）While the U.S.is still debating about getting rid of the penny,Sweden is rapidly moving towards abolishing currency(货币)altogether.Though this may sound radical(过激的),it is a natural evolution in this digital society.Sweden,which was the first European country to introduce banknotes in 164,has just been working harder to convince its residents that digital payments are a safer alternative to carrying cash.Over the years,the idea has gained popularity with residents,especially the younger generation that is much more comfortable with technology.Today many banks dont even have ATMs and some have stopped handling cash altogether!Tickets to ride public buses in most Swedish cities can only be purchased via cell phones.Numerous businesses are also moving towards accepting only digital payments.Even the homeless that sell street paper to make ends meet have to start accepting this mode of payment!But despite its growing popularity,some people dont like this radical idea.They include the homeless,elderly people as well as those living in rural areas who are still uncomfortable with mobile phones and computers.But the officials are confident that in the very near future,they will be able to convince everyone to move this safe and more cost-effective payment system.Sweden is not the only country trying to abolish paper currency and coins.The movement is rapidly gaining ground in Denmark and Finland as well.In 2014,Israel announced a three-step plan to go cashless and just last week the vendors(小贩)of a popular street in Sydney declared they would stop accepting currency from customers.Whether this phenomenon spreads remains to be seen.But one thing is for sureWith increasingly advanced payment systems being introduced every day,pulling out cash is rapidly becoming“uncool”.1、What can we infer from Paragraph 3 and 4?AMany banks in Sweden dont have ATMs.BYou dont have to buy tickets when riding buses.CPeople dont give the homeless money but food.DPeople can just take cell phones when shopping.2、According to the passage,which information is RIGHT?ASweden was the first country to get the idea to abolish currency.BThe younger generation is opposed to the measures.CBus fare can only be purchased via cell phones in most Swedish cities.DBanks in Sweden have stopped dealing with cash completely.3、Which of the following can be the best title for the text?AAn Advanced Country Sweden BA Controversial Government Policy CSweden to Influence the Worlds Cash Payment DSweden to Become the Cashless Society 4、Which of the following categories does this passage belong to?AEducation.BEconomy.CTravel.DInsurance.23（8 分）New Zealand Escorted Tours-A great way to experience New Zealand Explore the North or South Islands or indulge in a

24（8分）It could have been any of us,but it happened to be me.I received a brief 18-months of undivided attention and love as the only child,before three more appeared.The second was a severe blow.No doubt,learning the need to share was important,but I had tasted the life of an only child.Then came years of requests to look after the siblings(兄弟姐妹),being urged that,you should be setting a better example,“Again and again the others got away with doing wrong but I didnt.We each played our roles;the second one who later skipped school to meet boys;the ever so attractive third,the boy who could do no wrong;and finally the surprise appearance of the fourth,seemed certain to be spoiled even now.So that left me:the reasonable,quiet one who got the grades,did the housework and became a chameleon(变色龙)skilled at reading a situation and being what was needed.Then eventually came the chance to be the first to leave and experience life on the outside,not defined(定义)as the eldest.The moment I had waited for.But now,many years later,being the eldest matters again.Its down to me;it seems,to take the lead in caring for our parents.All the time I was made to learn about sharing;however,when it comes to responsibility,it no longer seems to apply.The others are too busy,too far away,or too unconcerned.So dutifully I travel many times across the country for hours to provide care and support.Requests to my siblings to help out more fall on deaf ears.To me,the dutiful first born,it feels like the right and only thing to do;to be there for our parents as they were for us.Sadly,that feeling isnt shared by the second,third or fourth.1、How does the author comment on the four children in the second paragraph?AAngrily and Bitterly.BAngrily and proudly.CBitterly and humorously.DHumorously and proudly.2、How did the author develop his social skills?AThrough hard work.BWith the parents help.CAt the parents request.DIn practice for effectiveness.3、What does the underlined word“it”in the last paragraph refers to?ATo care for the old.BTo help the young.CTo live outside alone.DTo travel nationwide.4、What can we learn from the text?AThe writer hates to be the eldest.BThe writer feels proud of his role.CThe writer is satisfied with his attempt.DThe writer is regretful about the siblings.25（10 分）Average humans can consume 15 or more drinks in plastic bottles a month.If you were born after 1978,and live until 80 years old,you will leave behind a minimum of 14,400 plastic bottles on this planet.These bottles take hundreds of years to break down into tiny pieces of plastic,never to completely disappear.Most of the waste is consumed by fish and birds,which has shortened their lifetime greatly.The Plastic Bottle Village is just a great idea that might finally save us from being buried in plastic.Its a community in Panama that is going to be made of used bottles.The design process begins with building steel frames,which are then filled with these bottles.Once this step is complete,and electrical and plumbing(管道装置)lines are put inside,the plastic walls are covered by concreteboth inside and outside.So no one will actually be able to tell that the walls are made of plastic.Besides,the material will keep the house 17C cooler than the outside,which is the biggest benefit to people living inside.The village is the brainchild(主意)of Robert Bezeau with the intention of setting up several environmental projects.Having started a recycling program four years ago,during which a number of plastic bottles were collected,he started to think of how they could be put to use.Soon enough,he decided to use them to build houses,and came up with a basic idea for the construction process.The project hopes to make people conscious of the waste that these bottles create so that they can do more to protect the environment.The village will also create an education center that will teach individuals from the world how to reuse plastic bottles as construction materials for shelter.Recycled bottles could neutralize the negative effect of your passage on this planet,and move closer to leaving only your“footprints”.1、What does Paragrap
