【題目】C

A machine that takes sweat-laden clothes and turns the moisture into drinking water is in use in Sweden.The device spins and heats the material to remove the sweat, and then passes the vapor through a special membrane designed to only let water molecules get through.

Since its Monday launch, its creators say more than 1,000 people have "drunk other's sweat" in Gothenburg.They add the liquid is cleaner than local tap water.

The device was built for the United Nation's child-focused charity UNICEF to promote a campaign highlighting the fact that 780 million people in the world lack access to clean water.

The machine was designed and built by engineer Andreas Hammar, known locally for his appearances on TV tech show Mekatronik.He said the critical part of the sweat machine was a new water purification component developed by a company named HVR in collaboration with Sweden's Royal Institute of Technology.

"It uses a technique called membrane distillation(膜蒸餾)," he told the BBC."We use a substance that's a bit like Gortex that only lets steam through but keeps bacteria, salts, clothing fibers and other substances out."They have something similar on the International Space Station to treat astronaut's urine - but our machine was cheaper to build.Volunteers have been sampling the treated sweat since the start of the week in Gothenburg"The amount of water it produces depends on how sweaty the person is - but one person's T-shirt typically produces 10ml , roughly a mouthful."

The equipment has been put on show at the Gothia Cup - the world's largest international youth football tournament.MattiasRonge, chief executive of Stockholm-based advertising agency Deportivo - which organized the stunt(驚人的表演) - said the machine had helped raise awareness for UNICEF, but in reality had its limitations.

"People haven't produced as much sweat as we hoped - right now the weather in Gothenburg is lousy," he said."So we've installed exercise bikes alongside the machine and volunteers are cycling like crazy."Even so, the demand for sweat is greater than the supply. And the machine will never be mass produced - there are better solutions out there such as water purifying pills."

【1】Which of the following is the disadvantage of the machine?_______.

A.The water processed by the machine is cleaner than local tap water .

B.The amount of water the machine produces is too small.

C.the machine is cheaper than the similar one on the International Space Station

D.The machine can help raise awareness of lacking water in the world .

【2】What is the main idea of the fifth paragraph ?

A.How the machine works.

B.Who developed the machine.

C.How the machine was invented.

D.Why the machine was invented..

【3】What does Mttias Ronge think of the machine?____

A.The machine can solve the severe water shortage in the world..

B.People do not like the water the machine processes

C.The machine should be used in rather hot areas in summer.

D.The machine is not worth popularizing..

【4】The passage is most likely to be____

A.a tourist brochure.

B.a book review

C.a news report

D.a blog.

【題目】閱讀下面的短文,并用英語回答問題,請注意問題后的詞數(shù)要求。

Parent involvement is critical in helping with childrens development and achievement and in preventing and correcting educational and developmental problems.

The degree to which American parents are involved in their childrens schools is often surprising to people of other countries. Most schools have organizations consisting of both parents and teachers (usually called P.T.A from the initials of the Parent-Teacher Association”). They meet together regularly to discuss and consult on various matters related to the school-curriculum, budgets, faculty, salaries, libraries facilities, or whatever it may be.

Mothers often volunteer to help with classroom or after-school activities. They sometimes make costumes for plays or play the piano or assist a teacher on a class field trip. Some of them give regular time, under the direction of the teacher, in working with tutoring children in the classroom.

In good schools a real effort is made to have both the home and the school work together for the childs well-being. You will generally find teachers eager to talk with you about any problems concerning your child-although the larger the school, the less likely this is to happen. When the size permits, there are often scheduled appointments so that parents can meet privately with one or more of their childs teachers to discuss his particular problems or progress. You will be sent notices of meetings or programs to which you are invited.

Both mothers and father are expected to attend such meetings and to show their interest in the school. You may be invited to a Parents Day, where you follow a childs schedule through a full day of classes. This is inspiring and enjoyable for most parents.

School activities provide a good way to meet your neighbors and to make friends in the community. Since Americans enjoy meeting people from other countries, you will probably find your national background a help rather than a disadvantage in getting to know others. This is true even if you are having trouble with the language.

Successful parent involvement benefits parents, children and teachers and, therefore, has significant influence on childrens education.

【1】In what way can parent involvement be critical? (no more than 7 words)

【2】What role can the organization P.T.A play at school? (no more than 7 words)

【3】How do mothers volunteer to do in the classroom or after-school activities? (no more than 6 words)

【4】What can parents do on Parent Day? (no more than 5 words)

【5】Who can benefit from successful parent involvement? (no more than 4 words)

【題目】Just weeks after a special memorial voyage to mark the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, an Australian billionaire has announced plans to build an exact replica(復(fù)制品) of the Titanic, which is just as similar to the original one as possible. The Titanic replica will make its first voyage from Southampton, England to New York in 2016.

The Titanic is a famous ship that sank in 1912. The attractive story of the ocean liner(郵輪) has made millions of people interested in it around the world. It was believed to be an unsinkable ship but it hit an iceberg and sank on its first voyage. More than 1,500 people died in the sinking of the Titanic, which at the time was the world’s largest and most luxurious ocean liner.

When fully built, the Titanic II will be 270 meters (886 feet) long and capable of holding 1,680 passengers. Unlike the original Titanic which was powered by coal-fired boiler and steam engines, the Titanic II will have modern diesel(柴油機) and electric engines. Also unlike the first Titanic, the Titanic II will have more than enough lifeboats to accommodate everyone on board if something should go wrong.

When asked whether the new replica would sink, Mr. Palmer replied: “Of course it will sink if you put a hole in it. He also added “It will be designed as a modern ship with all the technology to ensure that doesn’t happen.”

When Mr. Palmer was asked if he expected his Titanic to be successful, he simply said: “At my age, you don’t really worry so much about whether you’ll make money or lose money on something, but I believe that it is worth building it.”

B. To mark the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic.

D. Not clearly talked about in the passage.

【2What’s mainly talked about in Paragraph 2?

A. The travelling route of the Titanic.

B. A short introduction to the original Titanic.

C. The number of people on the Titanic when it sank.

D. People’s great interest in the attractive story of the ocean liner.

【3What is the difference between the Titanic II and the original one?

A. Titanic II will be powered by modern diesel and electric engines.

B. The appearance of Titanic II will be more luxurious.

C. The construction of Titanic II will be more complex.

D. The number of the lifeboats on Titanic II will be smaller.
