【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,選擇正確答案。
(B)
When thinking of Britain, many images come to mind. Big Ben, the Ferris wheel, red telephone boxes...and black London taxis. The taxi has an important role in London.
But what is so special about a simple taxi? First of all, the shape and style are very different from those of ordinary taxis. It looks like a half-car and half-van (半廂式貨車). It has plenty of room in the back, which means it's easy for disabled people to use. And the black color makes it stand out on the road.
Besides the style of the car, taxi drivers have an important part in your travel. They have to pass a taxi driving test, and in London it is very difficult. As there are many tourists in London, drivers must know many roads by memory!
Apart from driving you to your destination, it is normal {or the driver and passenger to have a conversation. Getting a taxi involves a social space which the driver and you share. The image of a London taxi driver is one that is friendly and talkative. Most times when I get a taxi, I ask how the driver is. Then we usually talk about sports or news events.
In China, I've noticed that taxi drivers are usually quieter. Sometimes I try to speak with them in Chinese. And when I do, they usually seem friendly and open to talk. It's also a good situation to practice my Chinese!

【題目】There are many kinds of animals that live in the forest, such as mice, rabbits, squirrels and bears.

Animals in the forest depend on(依靠)one another for food. Many small forest animals, such as mice, eat green plants for food, and then larger animals eat them. This is called food chain. A food chain begins with the sun. The green plants in the forest use the sun’s energy to make food for themselves. It’s called photosynthesis(光合作用). Mice eat flowers and seeds that forest plants produce(生產(chǎn)). The mice get their energy from the plants, and the mice become food for a larger animal, such as the hunting hawk. So the energy from the sun passes from the plants to the mice to the hawk. A break(中斷)in any part of this food chain means some animals may not have enough food to eat.

1Photosynthesis takes place when _____________.

A. larger animals eat small animals.

B. green plants use the sun’s energy to make food.

C. Forest animals eat the food made by green plants.

D. The food chain is broken.

【題目】閱讀理解
A computer can get very hot when it works on a lot of programs. It can cost a lot to cool the computer. So some scientists want to know what would happen if the heat from the computer could be used.
Large Internet companies such as Google and Microsoft have thousands of computers. As these computers deal with information, they produce lots of heat, so they need huge cooling systems. These systems send the heat into the air.
A company in Holland thinks paying to make the computers work and then paying again to cool them are a waste of energy. So the company developed a special device—the e-Radiator.
Boaz Leupe, head of the company, says that e-Radiator works as a heating system and saves money. He explains that the energy is used twice—once to heat the home and once to cool the computer and that the users don't have to pay to cool their computers.
Five homeowners in Holland are testing the heating system in their homes.
“We pay for the computer using, so, in that way, homeowners get heating for free.” Boaz says.
Jan Visser is one of the homeowners. “If you use the computer more, the e-Radiator producers more heat,” he says, “It cannot provide enough heat if you don't use your computer often.” But he is ready to try it. It's a great help for his family.
The company says e-Radiators produce heat temperatures of up to 55℃. It says the system could save its users about $440 a year.
(1)Before the e-Radiator appears, usually the heat of a computer ______.
A.is sent into the air
B.helps the five homeowners
C.is used twice
D.makes the computer work better
(2)The e-radiator is mainly used _____.
A.to help Microsoft
B.to provide heat
C.to heat the computer
D.to drive the computer
(3)How much could the system save its users a month?
A.About 20 dollars.
B.About 440 dollars.
C.About 36 yuan.
D.About 36 dollars.
(4)The best title of the passage may be “_____”.
A.An Environment Problem
B.The Future Computers
C.A New Way to Heat Homes
D.The Energy to Be Wasted
