14.As is often the case,when people are attending to meetings,having meals or waiting for buses,you can always find them addicting to their phones,completely ignoring others.
This is really a common phenomena in our life.The reason is why smart phones nowadays can be used for people to play mobile games and kept in touch with friends through QQ and WeChat.Therefore,too much exposure to phones are bad for people in terms of health.Moreover,people involved in phones fail to communicate well with these around them.
As far as I am concerned,people should wisely make use of their phones to help their work and study.Meanwhile,care much about their family and friends rather than mobile phones.

3.More than four million people around the world are bitten by snakes each year.At least 125,000 of these people die,while almost three million others are seriously injured.Doctors and researchers say we do not have enough good treatments for poisonous snakebites.To help improve the situation,an international project called the Global Snakebite Initiative (GSI) has been formed.
     Poisonous snakebites are most common in rural areas of developing countries with hot climates.Many of the victims are agricultural workers and children in Asia and Southern Africa.Shortages of antivenom medicine,the treatment for snakebite,are common there,while existing supplies may be of low quality,or inappropriate to local needs.
Doctor Herbert Winkel of GSI says antivenom treatment is also too costly for many of the poor people who need it most.The Initiative is trying to increase the availability of high quality antivenom treatment and improve medical training.Another goal is to help manufacturers of antivenom medicines improve their products,while also teach communities about snakebites and first aid.It wants more research and better reporting systems,and aims to help national health officials choose antivenom appropriate for their countries.
The drugs are developed from the venom of poisonous snakes.For example,laboratory workers in Costa Rica may collect venom(毒液)from highly poisonous Fer de Lance snakes in order to make antivenom for the snake's bite.However,the antivenom that cures the bite of one kind of snake may not be effective for that of another,and treatment for a cobra bite in the Philippines may not work for someone bitten by a similar snake in West Africa.
Experts look forward to improvements in the worldwide treatment of snakebite,but say that the best ways to reduce deaths and injuries from snakebites are education and prevention.

33.What's the main idea of the text?A
A.The work GSI is doing to improve snakebite treatment.
B.How to tell poisonous snakes from common ones.
C.How to treat the snakebites on the spot.
D.The present situation of snakebite treatment in poor countries.
34.Which of the following functions are performed by the GSI?C
a.Helping to improve the ability to produce antivenom medicine.
b.Telling people how to use antivenom medicine properly.
c.Teaching about snakebites and first aid.
d.Helping choose appropriate antivenom.
A.a(chǎn)bc           B.a(chǎn)cd           C.bcd            D.a(chǎn)bd
35.Which of the following is NOT true about poisonous snakebites?B
A.The venom of poisonous snakes can be used to cure their bites.
B.They are not very common in countries with hot climates.
C.The existing treatment of them is unsatisfactory.
D.Poor people usually cannot afford snakebite treatment.

7.假定你是李華.你的美國(guó)筆友Mike 將到廣州度假,以下是他給你發(fā)的電子郵件.請(qǐng)給他回信,歡迎他的到來(lái),答復(fù)他的疑問(wèn),并提出合理建議.
Dear Li Hua,
I'm going to Guangzhou for a 2-week holiday in May.I'm so excited that I finally have this chance to meet you and see your city.However,I am a bit worried about the traffic problems.From what I know,traffic jams are serious in big cities.Do you think I should rent a car?How should I travel around efficiently when I'm in Guangzhou?
Can't wait to see you.
Yours,
Mike
注意:
1詞數(shù)100左右;
2可以適當(dāng)增加細(xì)節(jié),以使行文連貫.
There are many options available getting around Guangzhou.When you just want to travel around the downtown area,I suggest that you hire a street bike.They are everywhere and best of all when you finish you can leave the bike where you like.We also have an excellent metro system and bus service.I recommend that you avoid using the buses as much as possible,as traffic jams are pretty common,especially during rush hour.The metro should be perfect for most places.If you want to go to the suburbs or countryside my father can drive us or you can even use one of the many car-hire services available.Looking forward to seeing you in Guangzhou.
Yours,
Li Hua.

17.Many runners and gym members feel that music makes exercise more enjoyable.However,they might not know that scientists have found that some kinds of music can improve people's energy by 15%.This was discovered by Costas Karageorghis at Brunel University's School of Sport and Education in London.Karageorghis has worked with organizations like Nike and with many champion athletes.In the study,30people listened to inspiring music by Queen,the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Madonna.They did exercise at the same time.
When they were doing exercise in time with the music,people showed higher energy levels.Even when they were doing very hard exercise,they were positive about how they felt.When people are doing exercise,their nerves send messages saying that their body is getting tired.However,when they are listening to music at the same time,these messages are blocked.Karageorghis thinks this is because the music causes part of the brain to send different messages to the body that make it feel happy and relaxed.
Karageorghis'work shows that different types of music can have different effects on different people.The effect of some music can also depend on how tiring the exercise is.Karageorghis said that outgoing people prefer faster and louder kinds of music compared to reserved people.This is because,for the music to have an effect,the brains of outgoing people need more stimulation than the brains of reserved people.Reserved people want to feel less worried and so have better results when the music makes them feel relaxed.
Karageorghis was asked to provide music for the"Run to the Beat"half marathon in the UK."I have lots of other exciting projects that I am working on."said Karageorghis.One of these is to find out if the speed of the music we listen to has an effect on our heart rate while we exercise.

33.Why do people feel less tired when they exercise with music?C
A.Music makes people's muscles relax.
B.The brain blocks the part that sends messages.
C.Positive messages instead of ones about feeling tired are sent to the body.
D.Their nerves stop sending messages to the body in the process.
34.According to Paragraph 3,which statement is TRUE?B
A.Reserved people do not want to be stimulated.
B.Relaxing music worked better with reserved people.
C.Outgoing people feel less worried about their lives than reserved people.
D.Louder,faster music had a better effect during exhausting exercise.
35.The passage is mainly writtenB.
A.to recommend different types of music for different people
B.to report on a study about how music can improve energy levels
C.to explore the different effects that different types of music have on people
D.to describe our brains when we exercise while listening to music.
