India now leads the world in smartphone growth. It saw a 55% increase in the number of smartphone in 2014. The number of Web users increased by 37 %. Smartphones were the source of 65 % of its Internet traffic and 41 % of its e-commerce, according to a report by the analyst Mary Meeker, titled “Internet Trends 2015”.

India’s Internet boom has started. Within three or four years, almost every adult in India will own a smartphone. They will be used to order goods, read news, monitor crop growth and so on.

Indian adults will be very interested in these devices just as young Americans are. 87 % of Americans between the ages of 18 and 34 who own smartphones say they never separate from these: “My smartphone never leaves my side.” Four out of five say that the first thing they do on waking is to reach for their smartphones. And three fifths believe that in the next five years everything will be done on mobile devices.

In the business world, the rise of mobile platforms is dramatically transforming many industries all over the world. What Indian software developers have to do is to start thinking about solutions to old problems by using all the features of these new devices. They need to take advantage of the unique properties of smartphones and tablets. As Indian software developers and enterprises master the smartphone, they will be able to export their solutions to the rest of the world.

This will make possible a new tech revolution that is greater than what created India’s IT industry in the 1980s and 1990s. We can expect the rapid transformation of India when a billion people become connected and have equal access to information and services.

Recently the students in our class have had a heated discussion on if people should keep pets at home in cities. We have two different opinions.

Some students thought it’s a good idea to keep pets because many old people who will live alone at home can get some comfort from them. Besides, get along well with animals will make our life interesting. However, other students are against the idea. In their opinions, if too many people keep pets at home, it’s harmful for the environment. What is worse, pets may make too many noise and even attack people.

As for me, I’m in favor of the former. I don’t think it’s bad for us to keep pets at home. But you must take some measures to prevent them from serious polluting our environment.

科目：高中英語 來源：河南省林州市2016-2017學(xué)年高一（普通班）5月調(diào)研考試英語試卷 題型：閱讀理解

I was driving home from the gym with my children. It was approaching bed time.

“ My legs hurt, I can’t walk to the car.” said my son, William. Then be sat on the ground regardless of whatever we said.

“Maybe you just need a banana? They’re good for tired bones.” his sister, Meredith, persuaded him in a wise way.

This was the first time I had heard of the banana’s miracle(神奇的) cure for achy bones. It distracted(使分心) William and we were able to make it to the car. His wish for bone relief brought him energy and he persisted(堅(jiān)持) the entire ride home. Upon arrival, he struggled out of the car and slowly went up 3 steps into the house. While he took his ”medicine”, we arrived on a suitable diagnosis (診斷) for his “illness” ---a serious case of Banana Bone. He was probably just over—tired. He had a long day and played hard in the Adventure Room at the gym. Thankfully we kept some bananas in the fridge, and hugs and kisses were given as a booster (輔助藥劑) , which gave him the courage to walk upstairs to sleep.

Banana Bone sounds like something I’ve had before. The aching hasn’t been in my bones so much as in my head and my heart. I think it’s a condition related to stress, lack of rest and stretching of one’s abilities. Perhaps you’re experienced it too. It is about long days facing challenges or pressing against the edges of your own ability without any hope.

That’s when you realize Banana Bone doesn’t have to be a physical illness. It can be mental. It can drive emotion. It means you can choose it or you can choose against it. It’s not real. It’ s your reaction to what’s real. I know, it’ s still not easy. But it’ s part of “growing up”. We must have the courage to overcome it and I believe we can make it﹗

My advice to you? Eat a banana and go to bed. You’ll feel a lot better and be your fresh self in the morning.

1.People need the same kind of “banana” as William did when they_____.

A. feel puzzled over choices

B. are under a stressful condition

C. find it hard to make changes

D. hold on to the wrong things

2.What attitude does the author think we should have towards “Banana Bone” ?

A. Respectful.

B. Supportive.

C. Fearless.

D. Doubtful.

3.When you are suffering “Banana Bone”, you had better______________.

A. distract and refresh yourself

B. stop and wait for a better chance

C. break down your old habits and give up

D. ask doctors for clear guidance

4.What can be the best title for the text?

A. Bone Made of Banana

B. My Daughter’s Trick

C. Miracle Banana

D. Banana Bone
