When I was in high school，most of my friend had bicycles. I hoped I could also have it. One day I saw a second?hand bicycle，that was only one hundred yuan. I asked my father the money. But he said he could only give me half money. He should find the other half myself. So I went to sell newspapers after school. My father was pleased if I showed him the money a month after. He gives me the other fifty. You can imagine how much happy I was when I rode to school on my own bicycle.

“Global warming could make humans shorter,” warn scientists who claim to have found evidence that it caused the world's first horses to shrink(收縮) nearly 50 million years ago. In fact, a team from the universities of Florida and Nebraska says it has found a link between the Earth heating up and the size of mammals – horses, in this case.

The scientists used fossils to follow the evolution of horses from their earliest appearance 56 million years ago. As temperature went up，their size went down, and vice versa（反之亦然）;“ At one point they were as small as a house cat,” said Dr Jonathan Bloch, curator（博物館長(zhǎng)） of the Florida Museum of Natural History, which was quoted by the "Daily Mail" as saying.

The scientists say that the current warming could have the same effect on mammals and could even make humans smaller."Horses started out small, about the size of a small dog . What's surprising is that after they first appeared, they then became even smaller and then dramatically increased in size, and that exactly corresponds to the global warming event, followed by cooling”

"It had been known that mammals were small during that time and that it was warm, but we hadn't realized that temperature specifically was driving the evolution of body size," Dr Bloch said in the "Science" journal.

1.How did scientists find out the horses’ earliest appearance millions of years ago?

A. searching the data on the net

B. sorting through the pictures of ancient times

C. using fossils to follow the evolution

D. analyzing the related images

2.What can we infer form the passage?

A. As temperatures went up, horses dramatically increased in size

B. The temperature has no effect on mammals’ evolution

C. As temperatures went up, horses’ size went down

D. In history, it used to be warm at early times , followed by a certain period of sharply cooling down.

3.Which is the most closest meaning to the underlined words most probably mean _______.

A. react to B. be contradictory to

C. be consistent with D. differ from

4.What is the best title of the passage?

A. Global warming is to disappear

B. The temperature on earth is to decrease

C. Global warming makes human shorter

D. Mammals are dying out.

Love is a telephone which always keeps silent when you are longing for a call, but rings when you are not ready for it. As a result, we often miss the sweetness from the other end.

Love is a telephone which is seldom program-controlled or directly dialed. You cannot get an immediate answer by a mere "hello", let alone go deep into your lover's heart by one call. Usually it had to be relayed by an operator, and you have to be patient in waiting. Destiny(命運(yùn)) is the operator of this phone, who is always irresponsible and fond of playing practical jokes to which she may make you a lifelong victim intentionally or unintentionally.

Love is a telephone which is always busy, When you are ready to die for love, you only find, to your disappointment, the line is already occupied by someone else, and you are greeted only by a busy line. This is an eternal regret handed down from generation to generation and you are only one of those who languish for（因…受煎熬） followers.

Love is telephone, but it is difficult to seize the center time for dialing, and you will let the opportunity slip if your call is either too early or too late.

Love is a telephone which is not always associated with happiness. Honeyed words are transmitted by sound waves, but when the lovers are brought together, the phone serves no purpose that many lovers observe that marriage is the doom of love.

Love is a telephone which, when you use it for the first time, makes you so nervous and excited that you either hold the receiver upside down or dial the wrong number. By the time you've calmed down, you will beat a loss to whom you should make the call.

Love is a telephone which often has crossed lines. And this usually happens to you unexpectedly. Your time will either cross or be crossed. Both cases are referred to as "triangle". Fortunately, all such occurrences are transient(轉(zhuǎn)瞬即逝的).

1.What is the best title of the passage?

A. Love is transient

B. Love is permanent

D. What’s love in life

A. "all shall be well，Jack shall have Jill�！埃ㄓ星槿私K成眷屬）

B. A lifelong love is not only romantic but also practical

C. Love is all we have in life

D. Beauty is in the eyes of beholder

3.Which is the synonym with the underlined word ”doom”?

A. monument B. final end C. key point D. substitute

4.In which part can this passage probably be found ?

A. advertisement B. financial C. emotion D. lottery

On Oct4,2011 , I phone 4s made its international appearance at the press conference claimed by the Iphone cooperation . Ever since then , Iphone4s has become a hot cake and even made a fashion around the globe. Meanwhile , many new expressions come about in relationship with this type of high-tech products. “Jailbreak” is one of them.

“ Jailbreak” means to unlock the operating system of a mobile phone or other device so that it can run software which it is not normally authorized to use because of restrictions imposed（實(shí)施） by the device's manufacturer.

If someone jailbreaks a smartphone, tablet computer or other device（設(shè)備）, they use a special piece of software in order to remove the restrictions imposed by the manufacturer on the kind of applications that can be downloaded and run on the device. The concept of jailbreaking is most often associated with products from Apple Inc, such as the iPhone, iPod and iPad, which routinely restrict the user to applications licensed exclusively（獨(dú)家地） by Apple and purchased via its App Store. As well as wanting to lift the restriction（解除限制） on what kinds of applications they can purchase, those who jailbreak often do so as a reaction against what they consider as a form of censorship（監(jiān)控） imposed by Apple Inc in only allowing the use of their 'approved' apps.

The concept of jailbreaking dates back to July 2007, when it was applied to the iPhone within a month of the device's first release. This first occurrence related to the adding of custom ringtones（個(gè)性鈴音）, but the idea quickly developed as a means to lift the restriction and equip the phone with games and other applications not licensed by Apple Inc.

1.“jailbreak” means that________________.

A. Criminals escape out of the jail

B. People make a great breakthrough in their life

C. It is a way to lift the restriction specially imposed by the Iphone manufacturer.

D. It’s a breakthrough beyond one’s dream.

2.Which is probably the correct Chinese meaning of a hot cake？

A.熱蛋糕 B. 搶手貨 C. 熱門話題 D. 最高禮遇

3.Which one is the correct statement from this passage?

A. The original mobile phones also require jailbreaking

B. People jailbreak not only in order to lift the restrictions of applications licensed by the Iphone Cooperation.

C. The concept of jailbreak is seldom associated with products from Apple Inc

D. The concept of jailbreak dates back to the twentieth century

Throughout the world, boys and girls prefer to play with different types of toys. Boys typically like to play with cars and trucks, while girls typically choose to play with dolls. Why is this? A traditional sociological explanation is that boys and girls are socialized and encouraged to play with different types of toys by their parents, peers, and the “society”. Growing scientific evidence suggests, however, that boys’ and girls’ toy preferences may have a biological origin.

In 2002, Gerianne M. Alexander of Texas A&M University and Melissa Hines of City University in London surprised the scientific world by showing that monkeys showed the same sex-typical toy preferences as humans. In the study, Alexander and Hines gave two masculine toys (a ball and a police car), two feminine toys (a soft doll and a cooking pot), and two neutral toys (a picture book and a stuffed dog) to 44 male and 44 female monkeys. They then assessed the monkeys’ preference for each toy by measuring how much time they spent with each. Their data showed that male monkeys showed significantly greater interest in the masculine toys, and the female monkeys showed significantly greater interest in the feminine toys. The two sexes did not differ in their preference for the neutral toys.

If children’ s toy preferences were largely formed by gender socialization, as traditional sociologists’ claim, in which their parents give “gender appropriate” toys to boys and girls, how can these male and female monkeys have the same preferences as boys and girls？They were never socialized by humans, and they had never seen these toys before in their lives.

1.Traditional sociologists believe boys’ and girls’ toy preferences ________.

A. are passed down from their parents

B. are largely formed in later life

C. have nothing to do with gender socialization

D. have a biological origin

2.The study by Alexander and Hines shows that monkeys________.

A. also have a sex typical toy preference

B. also play toys as humans do 

C. have no toy preferences

D. like to play different toys at different time

3.Alexander and Hines carried out the study to ________.

A. find more evidence for traditional sociology

B. test the intelligence of monkeys

C. test whether monkeys like to play toys

D. find out why boys and girls prefer different toys

4.According to the study, if given a stuffed dog, ________.

A. only the male monkeys showed interest

B. the female monkeys showed more interest

C. the male and female monkeys showed the same interest

D. neither the male nor the female monkeys showed any interest

Competitors who wear red win more than those that are dressed in any other color, according to study in Germany.

1. Experts believe that red could make individuals and teams feel more confident as well as being perceived by others as more aggressive.

2. On the other hand, the results could suggest that the success of those teams has given those that wear the red color more confident.

The study, by German sports psychologists at the University of Munster, was reported in New Scientist magazine. They showed video recording of taekwondo matches to 42 experienced referees. One fighter wore blue and the other wore red. They then showed them the same recordings but digitally manipulated the clothing to exchange the colors. 3. “If one competitor is strong and the other is weak, it won’t change the outcome of the fight,” said Norbert Hagemann, who led the study. “ 4. ”

In 2004 scientists at Durham University also looked at how color influenced sporting competitiveness. They analyzed Olympic contest sports such as boxing, taekwondo, and freestyle wrestling and found that nearly 55% of which were won by the competitor in red.

“ 5. ”said Robert Burton, one of the researchers.

A. It is the color of fire and is often associated with energy, danger, strength, power, and determination.

B. The fighters wearing red were given an average of 13 percent more points than when they wore blue.

C. The study shows that football shirts from worldwide teams such as Arsenal, Liverpool, sell successfully.

D. It is reasonable that wearing red makes individuals feel more confident, although this hasn’t yet been tested.

E. Researchers found that those who wear red tops, jackets or clothing score 10 percent more in any competition than if they were in another color.

F. The findings could explain why Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal have been so successful.

G. But the closer the levels, the easier it is for the color to tip the scale.
