Life on-line can be a much richer experience when you aren’t restricted to just written words and still pictures. Even if you’re new to the Net, you’ve probably heard about multimedia on-line—listening to audio, watching animations and videos, even playing in three-dimensional space. Sound and movement make information come alive.
To experience it, you’ll need special pieces of software called plug-ins. The term “plug-in” refers to a small, add-on piece of software which extends the capabilities of your web browser, like Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Explorer, turning your computer into a radio or TV.
When you arrive at a web page which contains a file requiring a plug-in which you don’t have,you will usually receive a message asking if you want to get it by downloading it and installing it into your computer. Most of the time, the installation will be automatic.
Occasionally, you’ll run into a downloaded file which needs to be decompressed or un-zipped before installation. Once installed, plug-ins run automatically, without you having to do anything.
Many multimedia controls still need to be obtained from the developer but are installed automatically.
Shockwave is a good example of this. All you need to do is go to the Macromedia site and click on the link to install the ActiveX control. The rest happens automatically. The next time you go to a “Shocked” website, the Shockwave control loads and plays the movie.
Most plug-ins and controls can be downloaded for free on the Internet, although not all will work with every system. Some of them, for instance, only work with Windows 95.
1.Plug-ins can help us to do all of the following except _________.
A.listening to music
B.watching animations and videos
C.playing three-dimensioned games
D.searching for information on the net
2.The correct explanation about “plug-in” is _________.
A.a radio or TV connected with a computer
B.a small,add-on piece of hardware which improves your web browser
C.a small,add-on piece of software which can turn your computer into a radio or TV
D.a small,add-on piece of software like Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Explorer
3.When we go to a “shocked” website a second time,_________.
A.we should go to the Macromedia site and click on the link to install the Active X control
B.the shockwave control loads itself and plays the movie for us
C.we will be asked whether to download the shockwave control or not
D.we have to buy the shockwave control and load it
4.Most of the time,how can we get a plug-in before automatic installation?
A.We have to buy it from the developer.
B.We have to borrow it from the developer.
C.We have to rent it from the developer.
D.We can obtain from the developer without paying.

科目：高中英語 來源：2013屆江西省高二下學(xué)期第二次月考英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解
When you are talking to somebody at a party, do you focus entirely on the person you are speaking with or does your attention keep jumping around the room to all the other people there? General1y, if the person is someone you really want to talk to, you will focus on him. Most other people will only get about half of your attention.
You may think that this is OK, because if you don’t really want to talk to him, then what does it matter if you don’t give him your full attention? Consider two things. First, you may just not realize the importance of that conversation. If you are at a networking meeting and you hope to meet the CEO of Company X, but you end up talking to someone who has a low-level job at a different company, then you may let your attention wander（走神）as you speak to him. But maybe you don’t realize that this person has already met the CEO and could introduce you. Do you think he will do that if he feels you don’t really care about speaking to him? This doesn’t mean you need to spend the whole time talking to him. Five or ten minutes of real attentive（專心的）conversation can be worth 30 minutes to an hour of partial attention.
Second, whether you want to speak to someone is based on the situation. You can love your wife, but if she tries to talk to you while you are watching something you like on TV, where is your attention going? Make your own decision, but if you want her to feel valued, give her your 100% attention. The nice thing is that in many cases you can give her your attention for a few minutes and then return to what you were doing. You miss very little, she feels valued, and all is good.
1.The author’s opinion is made believable mainly by ________.
A using figures B. giving examples C. asking questions D. description
2.The second paragraph mainly tells you that ________.
A. you should be interested in everyone at a party
B. you can refuse to talk to someone you don’t like at a party
C. you should focus on whoever you are talking to
D. you should be patient with everyone at a party
3.A person who has a low-level job probably ________.
A. would like to talk to you
B. is well worth focusing on
C. wants to make friends with you
D. is the one you’re looking for
4.If your wife wants to talk to you when you are busy, you should ________.
A. decide what to do according to the situation
B. go on with what you are doing
C. stop doing anything immediately
D. finish what you are doing with her
5.What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Always be friendly to others at a party.
B. It is important for you to be active at a party.
C. You should respect your wife at any time.
D. Improve your communication skills by focusing on others

Speaking in public is most people's least favorite thing．The reason is that we are all afraid of making fools of ourselves．The more important the speech is, the more frightened we become．In fact, public speaking is not a "gift" like musical talent （天賦） ．Anybody who can talk can speak in public．Here are some of the lessons I have learned:
Try to make your idea clear and brief．If you can't express what you intend to get across in a sentence or two, and then your speech is not focused well enough．If you don't have a clear idea of what you want to say, your audience will make no sense．After all, what you can impress your audience in your speech is one or two of your main ideas．One or two．Not ten or twenty．
No matter how long or short your speech is, you've got to organize it well-how you are going to open, what major points you want to make and how you're going to close．A strong close is critical: the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember．When I do a radio or TV piece, I often write the last sentence first．When you know where you're headed, you can choose any route to get there．
Finally, you'd better limit the time of your speech as properly as you can to hold the audience's curiosity．Take a vaudeville act （雜耍） for example．The standard length of one is usually 12 minutes．Just imagine how you are feeling if you have been watching all the performers singing and dancing their hearts out for more than the standard time!

Ears are for hearing — everyone knows that. But for a creature called the Cuvier’s beaked whale, hearing starts in the throat (喉嚨), a new study found.
The observation might help explain how all whales hear. The work might also help scientists understand how animals are affected by underwater sonar (聲吶). This sonar, used by some ships, sends out sound waves to locate underwater objects.
The Cuvier’s beaked whale is a so-called toothed whale. Toothed whales dive deep into the ocean in search of food. As the whales hunt, they produce sounds that reach objects and then return to the whales. This allows the animals to “see” the shape, size, and location of objects, even when they’re 1,000 meters under the sea, where it is totally dark.
To better understand how the whale hears, researchers from San Diego State University in California took X rays of two Cuvier’s beaked whales. The whales had died and washed up on the beach.
Ted Cranford and his colleagues used the images to make a computer model of a Cuvier’s beaked whale’s head. Then, they modeled the process of sound traveling through the head.
The researchers knew that some sounds get to the ears of a toothed whale through a structure (構(gòu)造) called “the window for sound”. Found on the lower jaw, this structure is very thin on the outside and has a large pad (墊) of fat on the inside.
When the researchers used their computer model to work out how sound waves travel in the whale’s head, they were surprised to find that sounds coming from right in front of the whale actually travel under the animal’s jaw. From there, sound waves move through the throat, into a hole in the back of the jaw, and finally to the pad of fat near the animal’s ears.
1.Toothed whales look for food under the sea by ______.
A. watching the shape and size of their objects B. diving deep into the sea
C. sending and receiving sounds D. making lots of noises
2.Researchers took X rays of two Cuvier’s beaked whales in order to ______.
A. find out why they had died and washed up on the beach
B. make a computer model of a Cuvier’s beaked whale’s head
C. make sure that sound travels through the head
D. know more about the way the whale hears
3. Which of the following describes the way taken by sound waves through a Cuvier’s beaked whale?
A. A hole in the back of the jaw → the ears → the jaw → the throat.
B. The jaw → the throat → a hole in the back of the jaw → the ears.
C. The throat → the jaw → the ears → a hole in the back of the jaw.
D. The ears → the throat → a hole in the back of the jaw → the jaw.
4.Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?
A. The throat is important to the Cuvier’s beaked whale’s hearing.
B. Ships send out sound waves like a Cuvier’s beaked whale.
C. The ears are actually useless to the Cuvier’s beaked whale.
D. The researchers haven’t found how the whales hear.
