2.Cyberspace(網(wǎng)絡(luò)空間) has given rise to a new social change where people make friends from across the world,but know little about their next-door neighbors.This worries critics (批評(píng)家),but some often find an Internet friendship more pleasant.
Take Bob for example.His neighbor doesn't know anything about gardening,but his instant messaging friend Gr33nThum does.Besides,Gr33nThum doesn't do that annoying sound when he talks.
Those people like Bob have long been criticized for their lack of necessary social skills.Critics think people almost forget how to naturally communicate with their neighbors,creating a social network of strangers.
However,a report entitled"The Strength of Internet Ties"provides a different opinion.Sociologists are suggesting that the Internet helps develop social networks and make use of them when it matters most.
Friends often move.As kids,our friends'parents move away.As adults,we move away to college or for work.Communicative tools have made losing touch the result of laziness,not distance."The larger and the more diverse(多樣)a person's network,the more important e-mail is,"argues Jeffrey Boase,who co-authored the report."You can't make phone calls or personal visits to all your friends very often,but you can keep in touch with them regularly with the help of the Internet.That turns out to be very important."
In addition to expanding and strengthening the social ties people keep in the offline world,Internet and e-mail provide a social and informational support group that helps people make difficult decisions and face challenges."Internet use provides online users a path to resources,such as access to people who may have the right information to help deal with family health problems or find a new job,"says John Horrigan,author of the report.
"The Internet creates a new basis for community.Rather than relying on a single community for social support,people often must actively seek out a variety of appropriate people and resources for different situations,"says co-author Barry Wellman.

32.Critics think that making friends onlineB.
A.exposes Internet users to danger.
B.leads to coldness between people
C.causes distrust between neighbors
D.results in the dying out of social skills

A.makes people lazier than before
B.is helpful in bringing neighbors together
C.is more important than the offline world
D.makes it easier for people to stay connected
34.According to John Horrigan,Internet users benefit a lot from social networks becauseD.
A.they can get the latest information online
B.people in the online world are more reliable
C.there are many online jobs available for them
D.they are more likely to get help when in trouble
35.What would be the best title for the text?A
A.The value of cyber friendship
B.The importance of friendship
C.The new way of communication
D.The development of the Internet.

14.Before I studied psychology,I used to think that people would laugh when funny things occurred.While I was right about that,I discovered there are lots of other psychological factors that make people laugh other than the funny part of a joke.When someone laughs at a joke,there will usually be more than one reason that makes him laugh-and the more reasons there are,the more powerful the joke will be.
I was attending a stand-up comedy show in Egypt,and when the man started to make fun of pedestrians crossing streets,everyone laughed their hearts out.The main reason those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them felt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly.The joke wasn't only funny,it also made the audience feel that they were right about being angry at those pedestrians.That is,people were laughing both because of the funny joke and because of the happiness experienced as a result of the psychological support they got.
The better a joke makes a person feel,and the more it includes other psychological factors,the more the person will like it.For example,if you envy one of your friends,and someone tells a joke that is funny and,at the same time,makes your friend seem stupid,then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you weren't jealous of him.
In short,we don't laugh only when we hear something funny; we also laugh when we experience some kind of happiness that results from the other psychological factors involved in the joke.I strongly discourage making fun of anyone or belittling someone to make someone else laugh.All I want to explain is that if your joke supports a person's emotions,he will certainly like it a lot.

32.What did the author find out after studying psychology?B
A.Only good jokes make people laugh
B.Many factors lead to people laughing.
C.Funny things can make people laugh
D.Laughter can make people healthy.
33.Why did the audience laugh loud at the pedestrians?D
A.They played a trick on the pedestrians.
B.The pedestrians behaved in a funny way.
C.They could feel the pedestrians'happiness.
D.Their emotion was approved of by the show.
34.What does the underlined word"belittling"probably mean?C
A.Annoy     B.Blame     C.Look down on    D.Make up to
35.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?B

7.The Commonwealth games have meant that the eyes of the world have been focused on our fair city-Melbourne.And it would look pretty good,wouldn't it?And what better way to regain our title as world's most liveable city?I'm told that we recently lost the right to say this to foreign friends proudly when the international list was re-examined and we slipped to the fourth place.
It's hard to see how Melbourne could have lost its crown (桂冠) when you look at what it has to offer.24hours Coles,free transport for drunks on New Year's Eve,a new freeway,it's all here.
The first focus for the international press will obviously be the endless stadiums dotted around the city.But as well as being full every other weekend,these great places often play host to slightly older kids.At Rod Laver,even the olds get a look-in as the Christian evangelical (教會(huì)的) road show rolls into town once a year for a night of stadium worship (崇拜).
Another pleasure Melbourne enjoys is that it's very easy to get around.There's a bit of a squeeze during rush hour for sure,but nothing like Bangkok,where the journey home can take longer than growing a beard and parking is barely distinguishable from the drive itself.Driving here is a piece of cake.It must be because the wise people who hand out the taxis seem to actively encourage a career behind the wheel within 24hours of landing in the country as an educational tool for getting to know the city.No slowing down for learning bends,just go,go,go!
As for the social life,with over 40million bars in Melbourne's CBD alone,we have plenty of places for spectators to celebrate national victory,making this town as good as any and it happens 24hours a day,7days a week.
Unfortunately,the athletes themselves don't get to smell the roses to the same degree.But the rest of the world will know that this is the place to be.The most liveable city in the world.By far the easiest place on earth to cheat death,which is essentially what we're talking about.

63.In Paragraph 1and 2the author is wonderingA.
A.how Melbourne has fallen behind
B.when the international list was re-examined
C.what they should do to regain the world's focus
D.whether Melbourne can offer greater convenience
64.What does the author mainly want to show in the passage?C
A.The casual life styles of Melbourne.
B.The various social activities in Melbourne.
C.The competitive advantages of Melbourne.
D.The convenient transportation in Melbourne.
65.From the underlined sentence,we can infer the athletesA.
A.have minimum social activities
B.take no interest in the beauty of the city
C.a(chǎn)re forbidden to live in the busy city centre
D.a(chǎn)re unwilling to celebrate the victory publicly
66.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?D

CP:Central Point  P:Point  Sp:Sub-point (次要點(diǎn))  C:Conclusion.

14.The iPad is an Apple tablet computer.The device sits somewhere between a laptop and a smart phone,according to Apple's chief executive,Steven P.Jobs,and does certain things better than both of them,like surfing the Web,reading e-books and playing videos.The iPad went on sale on April 3,2010,and Apple said it had shipped 500,000 units in the first week.The handheld device puts Apple on a direct collision course with the Kindle from Amazon,which Mr.Jobs ever considered as pioneering the category.
It is common knowledge that media companies hope the iPad will finally lead to available way for them to charge for news,books and other materials.The half-inch thick,1.5-pound device features a 9.7-inch multi-touch screen and is powered by a customized(訂制的)Apple microchip,which is called A4.It has been designed with an exposed screen and without a camera or separate keyboard.The iPad has the same operating system as the iPhone and also has access to its 140,000 applications.
The price of the device starts at 499 for the most basic model,with a Wi-Fi wireless connection.More expensive models with more memory and with 3G wireless access will cost 629 to 829,depending on storage size.
Because Apple is attempting to popularize a new kind of computing device,acceptance among consumers is expected to be slower than with previous Apple devices.Critics assume that some buyers are waiting for future versions of the iPad to appear,perhaps with a camera or USB ports(端口).
On its first day on sale,iPad users downloaded more than one million applications from the company's AppStore and more than 250,000 electronic books from its iBookstore.A new wave of apps is expected in response to the iPad.For an application developer,having an application accepted for a highly desired Apple product means reaching a passionate group of consumers.The potential income is huge:the apps market for the iPhone and iPod Touch alone is already worth a billion dollars a year in sales.

61.In Mr Job's opinion,the iPadD.
A.is a standard computer
B.is better than a laptop in any function
C.helps Apple to beat Amazon
D.is a"revolutionary"product between a laptop and a smart phone
62.Which of the following is NOT true of the iPad?D
A.It is expected to benefit media companies.
B.It has a lot of similar features to a laptop.
C.It has a virtual keyboard.
D.It has the fastest Apple microchip.
63.The different prices of the iPad are determined byB.
A.the size of the screen           
B.the size of the memory
C.the speed of the microchip       
D.the Wi-Fi wireless connection
64.What do we know from the fourth paragraph?A
A.Some consumers hope for an iPad with more functions.
B.Buyers can improve their iPads with USB devices.
C.The iPad is basically different from conventional computers.
D.The iPad is accepted faster than former Apple products.
65.It is implied in the passage thatD.
A.people may download any application from the App Store
B.people would prefer to buy an iPad rather than an iPhone
C.owning an Apple product means that you will be respected
D.the Apple company will make more profit from the iPad.
