Life in 2060

Let us suppose it is now about A．D. 2060. Let's make believe (假裝；虛構(gòu)) it is about 45 years from now. Of course, things have changed and life is very different.

Voyages to the moon are being made every day. It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960 to take a holiday in Europe. At a number of scenic spots on the moon, many hotels have been built. The hotels are airconditioned, naturally. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of young and old.

What are people eating now? People are still eating food. They haven't yet started to take on heir (繼承) supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power. They may some day. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants.

Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago, most of our planet's surface has to be filled. The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests. The harvest is always good.

Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then.

People are now largely vegetarians (素食者). You see, as the number of people increases, the number of animal decreases. Therefore, people have to be vegetarians and we are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know the causes and cure of disease and pain, and it is possible to get rid of diseases. No one has to be ill any more.

Such would be our life in 2060.

NOWADAYS, most animated (動(dòng)畫) films rely heavily on computer technology． But his magical world – where witches (魔法師) cast spells and castles float in the sky – is brought to life by hand． Nevertheless, Hayao Miyazaki is referred to as Japan’s Walt Disney and considered by many to be the world’s greatest living animator．

This month, the 72-year-old Miyazaki announced his retirement． The Japanese animator has directed 11 animated full-length films over the past four decades, including the Oscar-winning Spirited Away (《千與千尋》) and his latest release, The Wind Rises (《起風(fēng)了》), which tells the life story of a man who designed Japanese World War II fighter planes．

Just as The Wind Rises shows, Miyazaki is well-known for his obsession with flight, especially human flight． Other striking aspects of Miyazaki’s films include his themes of environmental protection and the horrors of war．

Miyazaki’s work is also famous for its lack of clearly defined good and evil characters． He sees the 21st century as a complex time when old norms need to be re-examined．

As a storyteller, he is an inventor of fairy tales full of mystery． In the Miyazakian universe, wizards (巫師) turn into birds of prey; young girls are transformed overnight into 90-year-old women; greedy parents are changed into pigs; and shooting stars become fire demons (惡魔)．

As a visual (視覺的) artist, most of Miyazaki’s grace comes from his vivid (鮮明的) colors and lovingly drawn landscapes – a rolling meadow (草地) covered with flowers and shadowed by clouds, or a range of rocky hills rising toward snow-capped mountain peaks

People attribute Miyazaki’s success to his long pursuit of his hand-drawn technique, although in an interview with CNN he called himself an “extinct species” in the age of digital animation．

A recent television documentary on the making of The Wind Rises showed a disappointed Miyazaki throwing a pile of drawings into the trash． He is said to have redrawn thousands of frames of the much-praised Princess Mononoke (《幽靈公主》) when they did not meet his standards．

But his huge attention to detail has earned him the respect of the entire animated film world． Even John Lasseter – head of Pixar, the famous US computer animation studio – once called Miyazaki “one of the greatest filmmakers of our time”．

【1】What can we know about Miyazaki’s film The Wind Rises?

A．It was put on a long time ago．

B．Its hero is a soldier．

C．It describes horrors of war．

D．It is an Oscar-winning film．

【2】What does the underlined word “obsession” mean in paragraph 3? ?

A．Enthusiasm B．Hate

C．Envy D．Sympathy

【3】According to the article,Miyazake’s films _____．

A．a(chǎn)re full of mystery and imaginative characters and landscapes

B．a(chǎn)re likely to use hand-drawn technique and redrawn abstract frames

C．a(chǎn)re full of new norms and clearly defined good and evil characters

D．a(chǎn)re likely to demonstrate environmental protection and anti-war themes

【3】What is the main idea of this article ?

A．Miyazake’s impact on Japanese culture

B．the characteristics of Miyazake’s films

C．what inspired Miyazake to create his films

D．what made Miyazake succeed

【題目】Honeybees can do three kinds of jobs.

It is one of the most unusual insects in the world. Bees are special because they divide up their honeybee work. Each bee has a certain job to do.

The busiest bee is the worker. Workers build the nest, called a hive. Inside the hive, workers make a honeycomb from wax(蜂蠟). They store honey there for food. Workers are always cleaning and fixing the hive. They even stand at the opening and fan their wings to cool the hive. Worker bees will attack anything—even people—to keep their hive safe, if need.

Another kind of bee is the drone(雄蜂). Drones are male bees, and their job is to fly with the queen bee and mate with her. After the queen mates, the worker bees drive the drones away. The drones then starve to death.

The third kind of bee is the queen. Each hive needs only one queen, and her job is laying eggs. She can lay as many as 2, 000 eggs a day.

【1】The bee’s nest is called a _______.

A. hive B. honeycomb

【題目】閱讀理解。

To most people, noise pollution is a jet flying over their heads. For one Spanish woman, it is a neighbor playing the piano. The woman has taken her neighbor to court. Now she wants to send her neighbor to prison for over seven years on the charges of psychological damage and noise pollution.

In a country known for its noisiness, the case has raised eyebrows. Neighbors often complain about street noise in Spain, but people seeking prison time for someone practicing the piano is unheard of. At the trial, Sonia Bosom says she has been suffering noise pollution up to now due to the practice sessions of Laia Martin, who lives below her. Martin, 27, didn't admit that she played at home that often, saying she took regular classes in other towns and mostly practiced at home on the weekends.

On the first day of the trial, the newspaper reported that Bosom told the court she now hated pianos so much that she couldn't even stand seeing them in a film.

Bosom says years of hearing constant playing has caused her “psychological injury”. Medical reports show she has suffered from a variety of problems, including insomnia (失眠), anxiety, and panic attacks.

She says tests by local authorities have found that the sound levels made by the piano are up to 10 decibels (分貝) higher than the limit. City authorities have asked the family several times to either stop the piano playing or soundproof (隔音) the room. The family told the court they carried out soundproofing work twice but the complaints continued.

The court hasn't made a final decision. A spokeswoman says the trial will end before May.

【1】Bosom wants to send Martin to prison because ________.

A．Martin's playing the piano damaged her health

B．Bosom suffered from heart attack

C．Martin refused to take regular classes in other towns

D．Martin flew a jet over her head

【2】How did Laia Martin respond to the complaints?

A．She stopped playing the piano.

B．She soundproofed the room.

C．She didn't admit she played at home.

D．She took her neighbor to court.

【3】Which of the following may probably be the best title for the passage?

A．A 7year Sentence Caused by the Piano

B．Pianist Charged with Noise Pollution

C．Health Problems of a Spanish Woman

D．Actions Against Noise by Local Authority

【題目】閱讀理解

I passed my driving test at the fourth attempt. You might think that means I'm not as safe as someone who passed on their first attempt. But would you feel safer with no driver at all? Maybe not, and that's why automotive firms have included driverassist functions in their driverless cars. This allows the human driver to take over if there is a problem.

Google is one producer that has prototype driverless cars. These cars have been newly equipped with autosteering wheels and conventional controls to allow normal driving. But this is just a stage — the vision is to have fully automated cars very soon. The director of Google's selfdrive project, Chris Urmson, hopes his 11yearold son will never have to take a driving test. To achieve that, the cars need to be on the roads in five years. He says driverless cars will greatly reduce accidents and traffic jams.

According to Chris, about 1.2 million people are killed on the roads around the world each year. That number is equivalent to a jet falling out of the sky every day. He thinks gradual changes to existing car designs are not enough to deal with the problems. “If we are really going to make changes to our cities, get rid of parking lots, we need selfdrive cars，” he says.

Google's prototypes have covered over a million kilometers on the road. They have also had to deal with unexpected situations, such as a child driving a toy car in the road, and a woman in an electric whelchair chasing a duck. In each case, the car reacted safely.

Some are not convinced. Sven Beiker of Stanford University thinks driverless cars will still need human input in extreme circumstances.

【1】According to Paragraph 1, what is the author's chief concern about driverless cars?

A．Functions. B．Safety.

C．Price. D．Appearance.

【2】Chris Urmson mentioned his 11yearold son in order to show that ________.

A．traditional cars are harmful for kids

B．his son is not good at driving

C．his son is a slow learner in driving

D．driverless cars will come soon

【3】What is Chris Urmson's comment on selfdrive cars?

A．They can solve many existing problems.

B．They are safer than a jet plane.

C．They can completely change our cities.

D．They should change gradually.

【4】What can we learn from the text?

A．Google's prototypes will be tested on the roads soon.

B．Selfdrive cars are not designed for children or women.

C．Concerns remain about the reliability of selfdrive cars.

D．Driving tests will be easier to pass in the near future.

【題目】Nowadays it is common that people are buying more products and services than ever before through the Internet, so do Americans. And experts say the popularity of online sales is likely to spread to other countries. Online sales now represent as much as 10% of all retail sales in the United States. This has led traditional stores to seek new ways to keep their customers loyal.

Taking Lynne for example, she made good use of the Internet. She used the Internet to buy everything she needed for her Wedding and holiday gifts for her husband and daughter. Other than food, 90% of her purchases were made on her home computer. “I find that, by being able to go online, choose the things that I need, and have them delivered to me right at my doorstep, I eliminate all the driving, all the crowds, all the noise of that, and I usually get a better selection.”

There are a lot of people like her. Experts say American online shopping hit records in both November and December.57% of Americans have bought something electronically. Store owners worry that this growing amount of online sales will hurt their business. Cornell University marketing professor Ed Melaughlin says they can keep their customers by selling goods like clothing, which buyers may want to see and try on before purchasing. The stores could also offer things that are difficult to ship. Besides, some stores can please customers by offering to repair electronic products.

Bill Martin is the founder of Shopper Trak. His business helps stores learn about their customers. He said, “There is still a lot of emotion in the buying decision, you know, that takes place. Often you need that last sense of “Boy, this is exactly what I want before you are ready to part with money, and you can't always get that online. It's a rather cold process.”

While e-commerce worries some business owners, the only worry for delivery services is keeping up with the number of packages. UPS manager Dana Kline says her company is very busy at this time of the year.

UPS is so busy that it has filled 55,000 temporary work positions during the holiday season.
