Many cities have subways and underground public transportation to take locals and tourists alike rapidly around the city．However, there’s something different about riding a London subway．It may not look different, but the historical value of one of England’s most popular forms of transportation is enough to make riding the subway a must when visiting London．With a little under 300 different stations, the subway can take you almost anywhere you need to go．

Riding a London subway, a person from other countries will notice one major difference: in London, people do not look at each other．In fact, eye contact is avoided at all times．That’s not rudeness ―people are just too busy to bother looking．

Busy doing what, you ask? Well, they’re certainly not using the time for a moment of quiet thinking．Nor are they reading a book．New technology has replaced quiet habits．Today the only acceptable form of book on the London underground is an e-book．

Apple must earn a fortune from London commuters（使用月票上下班者）．Since the launch of the iPhone in 2007, over 40,000―yes, that’s 40,000 “apps” have been designed．

Commuters love them because they are the perfect time-fillers．One “app”, called iShoot, is a game that features tanks．Another one, Tube Exits, tells passengers where to sit on the train to be closest to the exit of their destination．iSteam clouds the iPhone screen when you breathe into the microphone．You can then write in the “steam” on your phone screen．

For those without an iPhone, another Apple product, the iPod, may be the distraction（消遣）of choice．It’s not just teenagers who “plug in” to their music－iPods are a popular way to pass the time for all ages．

And if games, e-books and music aren’t enough to keep you occupied, then perhaps you would prefer a film? The development of palm DVD technology means many commuters watch their favorite TV shows or films on the way to work．With all these distractions, it’s amazing that people still remember to get off the train．

56．Those who want to save time to reach where they go can download ______ to their iPhones．

A．iShoot         B．Tube Exits      C. iSteam      D．iPod

57．People in London do not make eye contact on the subway because ______

A.they are going to work and have no time to communicate with each other

B.they love reading books and do not want to be disturbed

C.they feel sleepy because of getting up early

D.they are busy playing games, reading e-books, listening to music or watching films

58．The underlined word “apps” in the fourth paragraph means ______．

A．computers                   B．programs downloaded for the iPhone

C．computer companies          D．fortune from London commuters

59．Which word best describes the writer’s attitude towards commuters’ behaviors?

A．for         B．a(chǎn)gainst         C．neutral    　 D．hateful

60．The main idea of the passage is that ______．

A．London commuters are unfriendly to strangers

B．Apple has earned a lot of money from selling 40,000 apps

C．technology is changing how London commuters spend their traveling time

D．riding a London subway is a must when visiting London

The most widespread fallacy（謬論）of all is that colds are caused by cold. They are not. They are caused by viruses passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by coming into contact, directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in isolated arctic regions explorers have reported people are free from colds until they come into contact again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mails dropped from airplanes.

During the First World War soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches（戰(zhàn)壕）, cold and wet, showed no increased tendency to catch colds.

In the Second World War prisoners at the Auschwitz concentration camp, naked and starving, were astonished to find that they seldom had colds. At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time. After taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in a drafty（通風(fēng)良好的）room. Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose.

If, then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in the winter？Despite the most pains-taking research, no one has yet found the answer. One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on.

31. The writer offered _______ examples to support his argument.      

A. 4                B. 5                     C. 6                    D. 7

32. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The Eskimos suffer from colds from time to time.

B. Colds are not always caused by cold.

C. People suffer from colds just because they like to stay indoors.

D. A person may catch a cold by touching someone who already has one.

33. Arctic explorers may catch colds when they are _______.

A. working in the isolated arctic regions

B. writing reports in terribly cold weather

C. free from work in the isolated arctic regions

D. coming into touch again with the outside world

34. Volunteers taking part in the experiments in the Common Cold Research Unit _______.

A. suffered a lot                                                  B. never caught colds

C. often caught colds                                    D. became very strong

35. The passage mainly discusses _______.

A. the experiments on the common cold        B. the fallacy about the common cold

C. the reason and the way people catch colds D. the continued spread of common colds

When you are giving your speech, speak slowly and clearly, look at your audience and pause for a few seconds from time to time to give your audience chances to think over what you’ve said.

The common cold is the world's most widespread illness, which is plagues (瘟疫) that flesh receives. The most widespread fallacy (謬誤) of all is that colds are caused by cold. They are not.
