The Israeli farmers who pioneered the revolutionary technology known as drip irrigation weren’t trying to solve one of the world’s most urgent problems.They were just trying to survive.They lived in the desert,and they didn’t have enough water to grow their crops.
In its simplest form,it was little more than a pipe with holes in it.But behind each hole was a hi-tech dripper that let out just the fight amount of water.Snaked along a row of crops so that the holes were positioned directly above the roots,the pipe could direct each precious drop of water directly to the plants,getting a bigger harvest while using a very small amount of the water.
Over time,the farmers improved upon the technology,perfecting the drippers that regulated the flow of water,and connecting the pipelines to computers that could determine exactly how much water each plant needed and when.
If the global population kept growing,the rest of the world would increasingly resemble their little community in the desert.So they began selling their irrigation systems in other parts of the world,eventually expanding to more than 110 countries.Netafirm,the company says it’s lifting people out of poverty and conserving water at a time when the importance of doing so has never been clearer.
The mass adoption of drip irrigation won’t save the world by itself.To avoid the coming catastrophe,nearly everybody will,in some way,have to do more with less,perhaps through accepting and using other new technologies.Otherwise,it’s going to get ugly.
1.Why is drip irrigation called“the revolutionary technology”?
A.It saves the world all by itself.
B.It is controlled by computers.
C.It makes irrigation more effective.
D.It provides deserts with water.
2.What does“one of the world’s most urgent problems”in Paragraph l refer to?
A.Lacking water. B.Lacking labor.
C.Lacking food. D.Lacking energy.
3.How does the drip irrigation help farmers with crops?
A.By drilling holes on the pipes.
B.By regulating water via drippers.
C.By snaking pipes along the crops.
D.By placing pipes just above roots.
4.Which of the following will be the best slogan for Netafirm to sell the irrigation systems?
A.Less water;More harvest.
B.New technology;New world.
C.More grain;Less starvation.
D.Water saving;World surviving.

The Quad is located right in the heart of Greenwich Village, perhaps the most charming and interesting neighborhood in the city. Here are some attractions we recommend, all within a comfortable walk from the Quad:
Washington Square
As one of the best-known of New York City’s 1,900 public parks, it is a landmark in the Manhattan neighborhood of Greenwich Village, as well as a meeting place and center for cultural activity. Come on a Sunday when it’s most lively and festive.

Washington Mews
It is a hidden, private street in New York City between Fifth Avenue and University Place just north of Washington Square Park. It was first developed as a mews (row of stables) that serviced horses from homes in the area. Since the 1950s the former stables have served as housing, offices and other facilities for New York University.
Jefferson Market Courthouse

Spending time with your kids is the best way to give them you attention. No matter whether you stay at home or work outside the home, you can still give quality time to your kids. Quality time doesn’t mean the whole family sitting for four hours watching TV. It means turning the TV off and playing games together, reading books, going for walks---anything!
Giving kids your attention means listening to them when they talk. I don’t mean half-way listening and saying “uh huh” like we do to our spouses (配偶) when they’re talking about their day at work. I mean sitting down, looking children in the eye, and listening. Ask questions. Be interested. It shows that you’re paying attention, even if your question is just, “So you say you painted the cat blue?”
Raising kids is not the time to be selfish with your time. You can be selfish later on when they’re grown and having kids of their own. If you feel guilty about not being able to spend enough time with your kids, resist trying to buy their attention. You don’t have to make every weekend a Disneyland day. And you don’t have to continually buy them gifts as a means of letting them know you love them. The answer is “time”. Time is what they want most from you.
Your kids, no matter what age, are on some type of schedule. They get up, eat breakfast, eat lunch, eat dinner, etc. What do they do the rest of the time? Fill up some of the empty spots in their schedules with activities. Have them help you do something around the house or make them take part in a project with you. This is how day care workers are able to keep so many kids under control---they fill up the day with activities.
1.According to the author, spending quality time with kids means .
A. watching TV with them
B. staying with them as long as possible
C. doing meaningful things together with them
D. giving up jobs to stay with them
2.The author thinks it is important for parents to .
A. listen to their kids carefully
B. choose the best gifts for their kids
C. help their kids develop some interests
D. teach their kids the importance of time

Facebook is the world’s biggest social networking site. People are being tricked into Facebook with the promise of a fun, free service without realizing they’re paying for it by giving up loads of personal information.
Most Facebook users don’t realize this is happening. Even if they know what the company is up to, they still have no idea what they’re paying for Facebook because people don’t really know what their personal data is worth.
The biggest problem, however, is that the company keeps changing the rules. Early you could keep everything private. That was the great thing about Facebook— You could create your own little private network. Last year, the company changed its privacy rules so that many things— your city, your photo, your friends’ names— were set by default (默認(rèn))to be shared with everyone on the Internet.
According to Facebook’s vice-president Elliot Schrage, the company is simply making changes to improve its service, and if people don’t share information, they have a “l(fā)ess satisfying experience”.
Some critics(批評家) think this is more about Facebook looking to make more money. In original business model, which involved selling ads and putting them in the side of the pages totally, who wants to look at ads when they’re online connecting with their friends?
The privacy issue has already landed Facebook in hot water in Washington. In April,Senator Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy. He also urged(催促) the Federal Trade Commission to set guidelines for social networking sites. “I think the senator rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how people could choose to use them or not to use them,” Schrage admits.
I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade our privacy, it’s only the beginning,which is why I’m considering cancelling(取消)my account.Facebook is a handy site, but I’m upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I don’t know. That’s too high a price to pay.
1.What do we learn about Facebook from the first paragraph?
A. It is a website that sends messages to users who want to get married.
B. It makes money by selling its users’ personal data.
C. It provides loads of personal information to its users.
D. It earns money by putting on advertisements.
2.What does the author say about most Facebook users?
A. They are unwilling to give up their personal information.
B. They care very little about their personal information.
C. They don’t identify themselves when using the website.
D. They don’t know their personal data enriches Facebook.
3.Why does Facebook make changes to its rules according to Elliot Schrage?
A. To obey the Federal guidelines.
B. To provide better service to its users.
C. To improve its users’ connection
D. To expand its business.
4.Why does the author plan to cancel his Facebook account?
A. He is dissatisfied with its present service.
B. He finds many of its users untrustworthy.
C. He doesn’t want his personal data badly used.
D. He is upset by its frequent rule changes.
