【題目】 Which tablet computer should YOU be buying: They are our must have… and there's a style to suit everyone

Best for young children

LeapPad Explorer 2,68

Aimed at children between three and ninethough a nine-year-old might find it a little simple, it comes in pink or blue and with five education gamesyou can buy more. Besides, the LeapPad can't connect to the Internet-so it is impossible for your child to stumble across anything improper.

Pros: The education games are well-designed, the video camera is a fun way to play at being a film director.

Cons: Some of the games are very expensive. And the power adaptor(適配器)is not included.

Best for teenagers

iPad 4th Generation,399-659

The iPad is still the market leader. If the teenager in your house enjoys playing computer games, the latest offering from Apple is the one to choose.

Pros: No other tablet can compete with the near one million ' apps'(the name Apple created for specially-designed downloadable programs) available for the iPad. Simple to use, even for those who usually struggle with technology.

Cons: Considerably more expensive than most competitors.

Best for working parents

Microsoft Sur face,399-559

Tablets are wonderful for leisure-but what if you want to do a bit of work?

No tablet can yet compete with a full-size laptop computer, but this is the only tablet that allows you to use Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint(they are all pre-installed and included in the price) and you can buy a pretty lovely mini-keyboard for typing letters and emails, which also doubles up as the cover.

Pros: The Surface is good for watching movies-a pleasant thing when stuck in the airport on a business trip-and surfing the Internet.

Con: The keyboard is an expensive add-on-costing up to 109. It might be cheaper to buy a laptop(though a tablet is much smaller and lighter).

Best for bookworms

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite, 109

Nearly all tablets let you download books. It's a great way to take a great pile of hardbacks(精裝書(shū))on holiday without filling your suitcase.

But most tablets have a shiny screen-which can be very unpleasant when you're trying to read. The Paper White is different: its matt screen and crisp black lettering copy the look of words on paper brilliantly. And yet you can still read the words in the dark.

Pros: Easy, on the eye, excellent battery life, 180, 000 free booksif you pay for the Amazon Prime customer loyalty serviceplus hundreds of thousands more to buy.

Cons: No TV, films, games, Interact or camera.

本文是一篇應(yīng)用文。本文介紹了適合不同種類(lèi)人的平板電腦。有以下種類(lèi):適合兒童的,適合青少年的,適合父母的,適合愛(ài)看書(shū)的人的。

1詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)所在方框的第二段“Besides, the LeapPad can’t connect to the Internet-so it is impossible for your child to stumble across anything improper.”可知,LeapPad無(wú)法連接到電腦,所以你的孩子不可能見(jiàn)到不適宜的內(nèi)容。A遇見(jiàn);B爭(zhēng)吵;C比較;D競(jìng)爭(zhēng)。故選A。

2細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)題干定位到第三個(gè)方框,“No tablet can yet compete with a full-size laptop computer, but this is the only tablet that allows you to use Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint(they are all pre-installed and included in the price)…”可知,這款平板允許你用Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint這些內(nèi)容,而且它們是提前安裝好的,價(jià)位已經(jīng)包含在里面了。C表述需要花額外的錢(qián)是不對(duì)的。故選C。

3細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一個(gè)表格最后一行“No TV, films, games, Interact or camera.”可知,沒(méi)電視,沒(méi)游戲,沒(méi)互動(dòng)和相機(jī)。所以喜歡游戲的人這款不適合。故選D

4細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三個(gè)方框,“No tablet can yet compete with a full-size laptop computer, but this is the only tablet that allows you to use Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint(they are all pre-installed and included in the price) and you can buy a pretty lovely mini-keyboard for typing letters and emails, which also doubles up as the cover.”可知,這款平板允許你用Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint這些內(nèi)容,買(mǎi)個(gè)迷你鍵盤(pán)可以打字發(fā)郵件。如果你想在準(zhǔn)備好的ppt里加?xùn)|西,用帶有ppt軟件的電腦才可以。故選C。

5推斷理解題。根據(jù)第二個(gè)方框中的ProsSimple to use, even for those who usually struggle with technology.”可知,這款平板電腦易于操作,不擅長(zhǎng)科技的人也可以選擇。B如果你不太了解科技,可以選擇iPad 4th Generation。故選B。

【題目】

After that, we went on down the river. It was very dark that night and it wasn’t easy to see where we were going. Suddenly, a big steamboat came at us very fast, and the next minute it was right over us. Jim and I jumped off the raft (木筏) into the water. The boat hit the raft and went on up the river.

When I came up out of the water, I couldn’t see Jim anywhere. I called out his name again and again, but there was no answer. “He’s dead!” I thought. Slowly, I swam to the side of the river and got out. I saw that I was near a big old wooden house. Suddenly a lot of very angry dogs jumped out at me. They made a terrible noise and someone called from the house, “Who’s there?”

“George Jackson,” I answered quickly. “I’ve fallen off a river boat.”

Well, the people who lived in that house were very kind, and they took me in and gave me some new clothes and a good meal. I told them that my family were all dead, so they said I could stay with them as long as I wanted. It was a beautiful house and the food was good there, so I stayed.

A few days later one of the slaves in the house came to me and said, “Come with me!” Together, we went down to some trees by the river. “In there!” he said and went away.

On the ground, I found a man, asleep. It was Jim! I was really pleased to see him. When the steamboat hit the raft, Jim told me, the raft didn’t break up. Jim swam after it and caught it. Then he began to look for me.

We decided to leave at once. It’s all right living in a house for a little while, but you feel more free and easy and comfortable on a raft.

1What happened LAST in the story?

A. George saw a big house. B. George got some new clothes.

C. George found Jim on the ground. D. George jumped off the raft into the water.

2Why did George Jackson answer “quickly” when someone called from the house?

A. George felt afraid and nervous. B. George felt happy and lucky.

C. George really wanted to stay there. D. George didn’t want to lie to him.

3Which of these old sayings best fits this story?

A. It never rains but it pours. B. Every dog has its day.

C. Burn the candle at both ends. D. Many hands make light work.

The next day, the judge told the old man, “Before receiving the sentence, you will have to ______ and collect all the pieces of paper that you threw out yesterday. ” The old man said, “I ______ do that! The wind must have blown them away and I don’t know ______ to find them.”

The judge then replied, “The same way, simple comments may destroy the honor of a man to such an extent that one is not able to _______ it. If you can’t speak _____ of someone, rather don’t say anything at all. Let’s all be masters of our ______, so that we won’t be slaves of our words.” The old man realized his mistake ______ asked for forgiveness.
