8．Televisions were among the most talked about items at the 2013 International Consumer Electronics Show last week in Las Vegas，Nevada．Some employed the most advanced technology ever．
Some of the TVs used a new technology called Organic Light Emitting Diodes，or OLED．They were thinner，lighter，offered better color and were brighter than traditional LEDs．Smart TVs this year were smarter．Many offered technology that let users have a more personalized experience．One such TV from the electronics company TCL uses sensors and voice recognition to determine who is watching．It then offers programming based on the specific user．Another TV from Panasonic offers a similar personalized user experience．
In addition to television technology，size also played a major part in CES 2013．Televisions varied in size from big to bigger，with at least two companies-Samsung and HiSense-exhibiting TVs measuring 110 inches．
The yearly Consumer Electronics Show is the biggest technology trade show in North America and one of the biggest in the world．
Gary Shapiro is president and CEO of the Consumer Electronics Association，the group that organizes CES．He gave one of the keynote speeches on opening day．
"Now you know that CES is more than a trade show．It's a gathering of the brightest minds and the top leaders from many industries and those seeking a glimpse into the future．"
That glimpse into the future included a look at digital health and fitness devices，which were also big at CES 2013．There were devices that track your activity and others that measure blood pressure，heart rate and weight．There was even a fork that tells you when you are eating too fast．
Cars，smart-phones，tablet computers and PCs also made news．And a 27-inch table computer drew quite a bit of attention．
CEA President Gary Shapiro says there was much to see but not nearly enough time to see it all．"You cannot see the show in the four days that you have．We have over 3200 different industries showing over 20，000 new products．It's absolutely incredible．"
61．At the 2013 CES，which item drew the most attention？D

A．is bigger than the others

3．Italians were reminded to slow down and relax on World Slow Day，an annual event celebrating life's simple pleasures．
"Let's take this day to stop and think about all the things we miss while we're rushing through our lives，"said Bruno Contigiani，the President of the Art of Living Slowly Association．Contigiani，62，a one-time high-powered manager，is now an ambassador for the slow life movement around the world．He started the first World Slow Day in 2007 to encourage the values of living and working at a more natural pace，and to make people rethink their daily lifestyle．
    Contigiani's association suggests"14 commandments （誡條）"for living better，such as waking up five minutes earlier to enjoy breakfast without rushing．Others include walking whenever possible，and reading in the evenings instead of watching television．

    Culture shock refers to the anxiety and feelings （of surprise，uncertainty，confusion，etc．） felt when people have to operate within a different and unknown cultural or social environment，such as a foreign country．
Generally speaking，we could say that there are four stages of culture shock．The first stage is called"the honeymoon"．In this stage，you are excited about living in a different place．（36）G
    The next stage is"the hostility（敵意）stage"．In this stage，you begin to notice not everything is as good as you originally thought it was．（37）D Moreover，people don't treat you like a guest anymore．
    Then you come to the third stage called"recovery"．In this stage，you start to feel more positive．（38）BThe whole situation starts to become more favorable and you begin to learn to adapt yourself to it．
    The last stage of culture shock is called"adjustment"．In this stage，you have reached a point where you actually feel good．（39）EThe things that originally made you feel uncomfortable or strange are now things that you understand．Now you have adjusted to the new culture and you feel comfortable．
Not all individuals visiting another country will experience all these four stages．（40）CIt also occurs within cultures as individuals move from place to place or from one setting to another （e．g．，from high school to college）．

20．Best bike-sharing cities in the world
When Citi Bike rolled onto the streets of New York this Memorial Day，it was treated as a national event and even international media took notice．In advance of the launch，one blog post on Le Monde's website claimed，"Bike share to conquer America．"
The next major development was in Copenhagen，which introduced a coin-operated system in 1995 called Bycyklen，or"City Bike．"For 17 years，these bikes zipped through the streets of Denmark's capital until the program was shut down late last year-it's getting an upgrade to third generation technology．
Sponsored by media giant Clear Channel，the French city of Rennes brought the next generation of bike share to the world in 1998 by replacing coin operation with card access and electronic booths．From there the technology has progressed，picking up GPS and real-time tracking along the way，and has spread throughout Western Europe-and the world．
According to the Bike Sharing World Map，maintained by DeMaio and Russell Meddin of Bike Share Philadelphia，there are 553 bike share programs in operation worldwide and another 193 in planning or under construction．
And they're not just in Europe and North America．The worldwide leader in bike sharing，as measured by the number of bikes，is China．According to data collected by the Earth Policy Institute，20 of the 25 largest bike share programs are Chinese．Its largest one，in the city of Wuhan，has twice the number of bikes as all of France's shares combined．
Although most of the systems share several characteristics-bikes with low theft value，electronic docking stations，ranked payment scales-different cities are trying different ways to make bike sharing work．
Take a look at Hangzhou，China，this city of 6.2 million near Shanghai，and you'll see what just may be the best bike share in the world．Although now second on the planet （and China） by size，the Hangzhou Public Bicycle system is one of the densest shares，and probably the most extensively used one，anywhere，largely because of its mixing into public transport：a single card grants access to subway，bus，ferry，taxi and bike share．Residents and tourists alike can put down a deposit of 200 Chinese Yuan （about 33）andrideforanhourforfreeinthissceniccityontheYangtzeDelta．Eachadditionalhouristheequalofonly0.15-one reason why riders put in a quarter-million rides a day．By 2020 it's projected to have 175，000 bikes．
71．What does the blogger mean by the underlined part"Bike share to conquer America．"？C
A．Bike share is a national event．B．Bike share attracts international media．
C．Bike share is popular in America．D．America is a kingdom of bikes．
72．In 1995 citizens in the French city of Rennes can get access to bike shareAA．by putting coins into the system                             
B．by inserting a card into the system
C．by showing ID card to the booths                           
D．by boarding the docking station
73．Which of the following countries has the most bikes？D
A．America．B．Denmark．C．France．D．China．
74．Which of the following statements is TRUE about bike share？C
A．No thief will steal bikes
B．The payment is the same among cities．
C．Any city has her own way to operate it
D．There is no competition between cities．
75．If you tour in Hangzhou you can find the bike share there isB．
A．the most advanced in the world                              
B．a(chǎn) most successful example
C．free for local people                                                    
D．a(chǎn)vailable at scenic spots．

17．Almost anywhere in the world，you can probably see graffiti （涂鴉畫）．Although it's usually more common in big cities，it can be found in almost any community，big or small．
The problem with graffiti art is the question of whether it's really art．This isn't always an easy question to answer，simply because there are so many different types of graffiti．While some simply consists of collections of letters，known as tags，with little artistic value，such examples are easy to find，especially on larger spaces such as walls．
If it weren't for the fact that most graffiti is placed on private property without permission，it might be more commonly recognized as a legal form of art．Most graffiti，however，annoys the property owner，who is more likely to paint over it or remove it than accept it as art．
Many ways of removing graffiti have been developed，such as paints that  dissolve graffiti paint，or make it easy to remove．Community groups and government departments often organize graffiti-removal teams．
It hardly makes sense to encourage artists to deface （丑化） private or public property； but perhaps there are ways to work with them rather than just oppose them．Graffiti artists can，for example，create murals （壁畫） for property owners，and get paid for them．
Maybe we need to start at a very basic level，and find a way to encourage the creation of graffiti art on paper or canvas rather than on walls．After all，who would remember Monet or Picasso if they'd created their masterpieces on walls，only to have them painted over the next day？Finding a solution to such a complex problem is never going to be easy，but with more and more graffiti art being recognized in galleries around the world，we do need to try．

66．What would be the best title for this passage？D
A．How to Be a Good Graffiti Artist．B．Stop Removing Graffiti!
C．Do You Like Graffiti？D．Is Graffiti Art？
67．The reason why people remove graffiti is that itA．
A．makes buildings ugly                  B．has no artistic value at all
C．robs private property                   D．takes up too much space
68．In Paragraph 4，the underlined word"dissolve"is closest in meaning toC．
A．change         B．flow          C．remove           D．freeze
69．The example of Monet and Picasso are mentioned in the passage to indicate thatD．
A．they are world-famous artists
B．they are good at graffiti
C．walls are right places to keep their masterpieces
D．their works，if painted on the wall，might not be kept long
70．The writer's attitude toward graffiti is that graffitiD．
A．should be removed by more countries      B．should be saved on larger spaces
C．should be created only on paper or canvas     D．may be accepted as art．
