Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1Hacking isn't just fbr computers and smart phones. According to a study, scientists have found a way to hack a plant's genes in order to make it use sunlight more quickly. Someday, the results could increase the number of food produced around the world.Scientists used tobacco plants in the study because it is easy to change the plants，genes. Hacked plants are larger than normal plants.Photosynthesis is the word used to describe how plants use sunlight, water and carbon dioxide to make their own food. Scientists say this is a very slow process. Plants use less than 1 percent of the energy. But by hacking a plant's genes, the scientists were able to increase the amount of leaf growth on plants between 14 and 20 percent. Scientists hacked the plant's protective system. Normally, this system starts when a plant gets too much sunlight. When the plant senses the light, it creates more leaves. When the plant is in shade, the protective system is turned off. But the process is slow.The new study sped up the process by changing the plant's genes, the protective system turned on and off more quickly than normal. As a result, leaf growth on the plants scientists used in the study increased. Leaf growth on two plants increased by 20 percent, while leaf growth on a third plant increased by 14 percent. Scientists conducted the study on tobacco plants. But they think the genetic changes would produce the same results in corn and rice.Agriculture professor Tala Awanda said the study makes sense, but cautioned the yield (产量)might not be quite so high for conventional food crops. Still, she added in an email, "this study remains a breakthrough J1、Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 1 ?A. We can find hacking only in digital devices.B. A plant's genes can be changed by hacking.C. Hacking has been used in improving food production.D. Hacking can be used to change whatever you want.2、Why did scientists choose tobacco plants to study?A. Because they are very easy to get.B. Because their genes are easy to change.C , Because they are larger than other plants.D. Because they can absorb sunlight quickly.3、What do we know about photosynthesis?A. It helps plants to produce energy.B. It is regarded as a productive system for plants.C. It can increase leaf growth on plants by 14 percent.D. It is made up of sunlight, water and carbon dioxide.4 We can learn from Paragraph 4 that changing the plants9 genes proved.A.uselessB.deadlyC.effectiveD.unrealistic5、What is Tala Awanda's attitude toward the study?A.Doubtful.B.Neutral.C.Objective.D.Critical.Text 2A few years ago I had an "aha!” moment regarding handwriting.I had in my hand a sheet of paper with handwritten instructions on it for some sort of editorial task. It occurred at first that I did not recognize the handwriting, and then I realized whose it must be. I finally became aware of the fact that I had been working with this colleague for at least a year, maybe two, and yet I did not recognize her handwriting at that point.It was a very important event in the computerization of life-a sign that the informal. Friendly communication of people working together in an office had changed from notes in pen to instant messages and emails. There was a time when our workdays were filled with little letters, and we recognized one another's handwriting the way we knew voices or faces.As a child visiting my father's office, I was pleased to recognize, in little notes on the desks of his staff, the same handwriting I would see at home in the notes he would leave on the fridge-except that those notes were signed "dad" instead of"RFW”.All this has been on my mind because of the talk about The Rise and Fall of Handwriting, a book by Florey. She shows in her book a deep concern about the fall of handwriting and the failure of schools to teach children to write well, but many others argue that people in a digital age can't be expected to learn to hold a pen.I don't buy it.I don't want to see anyone cut off from the expressive, personal associations that a pen still promotes better than a digital keyboard does. For many a biographer, part of really getting to know their subjects is learning to read their handwriting.What some people advocate is teaching one of the many attractive handwritings based on the handwriting of 16lh-century Italy. That may sound impossibly grand-as if they want kids to learn to draw by copying classical paintings. However, they have worked in many school systems.1、Why was the author surprised at not recognizing his colleague's handwriting?A. He had worked with his colleague long enough.B. His colleague's handwriting was so beautiful.C. His colleague's handwriting was so terrible.D. He still had a lot of work to do.2、People working together in an office used to.A. talk more about handwritingB. take more notes on workdaysC. know better one another's handwritingD. communicate better with one another3 According to the author, handwritten notes.A. are harder to teach in schoolsB. attract more attentionC , are used only between friendsD. carry more message4、We can learn from the passage that the author.A. thinks it impossible to teach handwritingB. does not want to lose handwritingC. puts the blame on the computerD. does not agree with FloreyText 3When the weather's hot, do you enjoy a glass of Brad's Drink while watching your TV made by Tokyo Telecommunications Engineering, and surfing the web using a search engine called BackRub? No? Neither do I. That's because all these companies have changed their names.Brad's Drink is now Pepsi. The mouthful that was Tokyo Telecommunications Engineering has become, simply, Sony. And BackRub is now known as Google. Though I must admit, the idea of a back massage does sound good right now!Joking aside, choosing the right name for your start-up is a serious matter. Think of the case of a small Canadian company called Research in Motion, who in 1998 had just developed a high-tech mobile phone that could send emails.They were torn between names like MegaMail and ProMail. Then they sought the help of consulting firm Lexicon, who specialize in brand names. They had other ideas. They brainstormed words connected to enjoyment and freshness. Someone said.Lexicon's boss added two capital letters, and there you have it: BlackBerry was bom. Since then it has sold over 33 million handsets to customers around the world. Would it have sold as well if it was called MegaMail? Who knows?Recently, BlackBerry sales have been overtaken by Android phones and Apple's iPhone. Lexicon's founder David Placek is a big fan of simple brand names like those Apple chooses: the iPhone. They lOok a household word and by putting one letter in font of it, it ends up being game changing.So, for all you entrepreneurs（企业家）out there, make sure you allow time to develop a catchy and memorable name. Think about what makes your company different. What's your USP （独特的销售主张）? Maybe you can reflect that in your name.What about you? What would you call a company if you had one?1、Which of the following is the original name of BlackBerry?A. Brad's Drink.B. Tokyo Telecommunications Engineering.C. BackRub.D. MegaMail and ProMaiL2、What is Lexicon?A. A consulting company.B. A handset company.C - A drink company.D , A telecommunication company.3、What is Lexicon good at?A. Giving proper names to persons.B. Giving proper names to a brand.C. Making Android phones.D. Making its company different.4、What would be the best title for this passage? A . The Art of DesigningB. Apple's iPhoneC. The Art of NamingD. Research in MotionText 4Visitors to Britain are sometimes surprised to learn that newspapers there have such a large circulation （发行）.The “Daily Mirror “ and the “Daily express“ both sell about four million copies everyday. British families generally buy a newspaper every morning and two or three on Sundays.Besides the national papers, there is, however, another branch of the British press which sells almost as many copies. Local newspapers have a weekly circulation of 13 million. Almost every town and county area has one. Nearly all of them hold their own financially （财政）and many of them are very profitable （赚钱 的）.These papers are written almost entirely for readers interested in local eventsbirths, weddings, deaths, council （上也方会 议）meetings and sports. Editors prefer to rely on people who know the district well. A great deal of local news is regularly supplied by clubs and churches in the neighborhood and it does not get out to date as quickly as national news.The editors must never forget that the success of any newspaper depends on advertising （广告）.He is usually anxious to keep the good will of local businessmen for this reason.
