Joy Mangano was 33 and divorced(離婚), had three kids under age 7, and was hardly keeping up payments on her small two-bedroom home by working extra weekend hours as a waitress.
“Sometimes I would lie in bed and think. I don’t know how I’m going to pay the bills,” Mangano said.
But she had a gift for seeing the obvious. She knew how hard it was to mop the floor. “I was tired of bending down, putting my hands in dirty water and wringing(擰)out a mop.” Mangano says. “So, I thought: There’s going to be a better way.”
How about a “self wringing” mop? She designed a special tool that could be twisted(轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng))in two directions while not making hands wet and dirty. She set out to sell it, first only a few at flea markets(跳蚤市場).
Then Mangano met with the media. But would couch potatoes(泡在電視機(jī)前的人)buy a mop? The experts on shopping TV were less than certain. They gave it a try, and it failed. Mangano was sure it would sell if they’d let her do the on-camera demonstration.
QVC took a chance on her. “I got onstage and the phones went crazy. We sold every mop in minutes.”
Today she’s the president of Ingenious Designs, a multimillion-dollar company, and one of the stars of the Home Shopping Network. Talking about her household inventions is “as natural for me as it is for parents to talk about their children”.
Today one of her favorite products is Huggable Hangers. The thin, space-saving inventions are the most successful gadget(器具)ever sold on HSN, with 100 million hanging out there in closets across the country. Of course, you couldn’t possibly sell hangers on TV.
(1)What would be the best title for the passage?
[ ]
A.There is going to be a better way
B.A woman invented the self-wringing mop
C.An ordinary woman sells her invention on TV
D.Women can all achieve remarkable success
(2)What does the underlined sentence “the phones went crazy” (in Paragraph 6) mean?
[ ]
A.Many people made calls to say they were mad.
B.There were lots of calls to order the new mop.
C.Many people were mad to see me on TV.
D.The telephone broke down at my home.
(3)Which is the correct order of the following events?
a.Mangano invented the most popular Huggable Hangers.
b.Mangano was tired of mopping the floor.
c.Mangano designed a self-wringing mop.
d.Mangano was ever worried about how to pay the bills.
e.Mangano did an on-camera demonstration to sell her mops.
[ ]
(4)What conclusion can be made from the story?
[ ]
A.Women can invent household tools because they often do housework.
B.Mangano treated her household inventions as she treated her children.
C.Mangano used to lie in bed and think of how to invent household tools.
D.One can make life better through work though it is sometimes hard.

(D)
The ’80s’ “important role” in the family has also meant a greater concentration and focus on the individual. And, it has made the word “me” one of the most frequently used words. Everything seems to be about “me”. This generation has a greater awareness of itself.
Some people do not seem to agree that all this is self-centred. When Cai Fuchao, Beijing’s publicity head, was asked to comment on the lack of responsibility of university students during the SARS period, his reply was: “Modern university students are ambitious, knowledgeable and have a very strong sense of responsibility to the society.”
As news analyst from sina.com, Pan Fengliang, echoed(隨聲附和)that, saying that blindly blaming them(for running away during the SARS outbreak) was prejudiced and unfair and not backed with evidence.
No doubt, the development of information technology has contributed its bit to broadening, or bending, the minds of the 80s generation.
Some people even call Gen’80 “the E-generation”. They get in touch with each other via email, QQ, ICQ and MSN.
While the people of the ’60s and ’70s swarmed(涌往)to Shanghai to catch Luo Dayou, Gen’80s were on the BBS saying that it was “really dumb”.
“The internet is so much more to those of the ’80s than you can imagine,” said Wu Junyong, an IT engineer who was born in 1978.
In Wu’s opinion, it’s the Internet that separates the 70s from the 80s, “Many of the’70s don’t see why those from the ’80s can spend everyday in front of a computer.”
A new weekly Magazine/163.com survey last year found that 40 percent of the 7,000 people surveyed, born in the ’80s, thought the computer was the most important article in life; more than 70 percent of their parents preferred the home.
67. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A.The development of information technology contributed to the ’80s’greater awareness of itself.
B.The E-generation rushed to Shanghai to catch Luo Dayou.
C.All the ’80s can spend every day in front of a computer.
D.Not all people think that the “born in the 1980s” are selfish and irresponsible.
68. What can we infer from the passage?
A. All the ’80s have a strong sense of responsibility to the society.
B.Computers play a more important part in the life of the ’80s, who perhaps can’t live without them.
C.The ’80s generation are ambitious, knowledgeable and responsible.
D.People can’t imagine why the ’80s like internet so much.
69. The best title for this passage could be ______.
A. The self-centred generation B. The internet generation
C. The “born in the ’80s”generation D. The life of the ’80s
70. The purpose of this passage is to tell us _______.
A.people’s different opinions towards the ’80s generation.
B.the ’80s are the E-generation.
C.the ’80s are different from others in society.
D. the’80s have their own characteristics and we shouldn’t lose confidence in them

科目:高中英語 來源:2012屆江西省高安中學(xué)高三第三次模擬考試英語試卷(帶解析) 題型:閱讀理解
I was walking along the deserted main street of a small seaside town in the north of England looking somewhere to make a phone call. My car had broken down outside the town and I wanted to get in touch with the Automobile Association .Low gray clouds were drifting across the sky and there was a cold damp wind blowing off the sea. It had rained in the night and water was dripping from the bare trees that lined the street. I was glad that I was wearing a thick coat.
I could see no call box, nor was there anyone at that early hour I could ask. I had thought I might find a shop selling the Sunday papers or a milkman doing his job, but the town was completely dead.
Then suddenly I found what I was looking for. There was a small post office, and almost hidden from sight in a dark narrow street next to it was the town's only public call box, which badly needed a coat of paint, I hurried forward but stopped in astonishment when I saw through the dirty glass that there was a man inside. He was very fat, and was wearing a cheap blue plastic raincoat and rubber boots. I could not see his face - he was bending forward over the phone with his back pressed against the glass and didn't even raise his head at the sound of my coming nearer and nearer. Carefully and surprisedly, I remained standing a few feet away and lit a cigarette to wait my turn. It was when I threw the dead match on the ground that I noticed something bright red trickling from under the call box door.

Your glasses may someday replace your smartphone, and some New Yorkers are ready for the switch. Some in the city can't wait to try them on and use the maps and GPS that the futuristic eyewear is likely to include.
" I'd use it if I were hanging out with friends at 3 a. m. and going to the bar and wanted to see what was open," said Walter Choo, 40, of Fort Greene.
The smartphone-like glasses will likely come out this year and cost between $250 and $600, the Times said, possibly including a variation of augmented(增強(qiáng)的) reality, a technology already available on smartphones and tablets (平板電腦) that overlays information onto the screen about one's surroundings. So, for example, if you were walking down a street, indicators would pop up showing you the nearest coffee shop or directions could be plotted out and come into view right on the sidewalk in front of you.
" As far as a mainstream consumer product, this just isn't something anybody needs," said Sam Biddle, who writes for Gizmodo.com. " We're accustomed to having one thing in our pocket to do all these things," he added, "and the average consumer isn't gonna be able to afford another device (裝置) that's hundreds and hundreds of dollars. "
9to5Google publisher Seth Weintraub, who has been reporting on the smartphone-like glasses since late last year, said he is confident that this type of wearable device will eventually be as common as smartphones.
"It's just like smartphones 10 years ago," Weintraub said. "A few people started getting emails on their phones, and people thought that was crazy. Same kind of thing. We see people bending their heads to look at their smartphones, and it's unnatural," he said. " There's gonna be improvements to that, and this a step there. "
1.One of the possible functions of the smartphone-like glasses is to ____.
A. program the opening hours of a bar
B. supply you with a picture of the future
C. provide information about your surroundings
D. update the maps and GPS in your smartphones
2.The underlined phrase "pop up" in the third paragraph probably means " ____".
A.develop rapidly B.get round quickly
C.a(chǎn)ppear immediately D.go over automatically
3.According to Sam Biddle, the smartphone-like glasses are ____.
A.necessary for teenagers
B.a(chǎn)ttractive to New Yorkers
C.a(chǎn)vailable to people worldwide
D.expensive for average consumers
4.We can learn from the last two paragraphs that the smartphone-like glasses ____.
A.may have a potential market
B.a(chǎn)re as common as smartphones
C.a(chǎn)re popular among young adults
D.will be improved by a new technology
