    Smoking in indoor public places including public working place, public transportation vehicles and some other special outdoor working spaces has been banned in China since January 2011. Should smoking be banned in public places? Of course, it should be. First, banning smoking in public places will not only help in saving smokers from various kinds of heath conditions and diseases, but will also be beneficial for passive smokers.
    Second, banning smoking in public places will put pressure on smokers to quit. Since a smoker is forbidden from smoking in public places, he will learn how to live without smoking a cigarette for long hours. Moreover, when a smoker doesn’t see anybody around him smoking or smelling of cigarette, it might reduce his urge to smoke too. Thus, people have to quit smoking as a result of smoking ban.
    Smoking in public places influences non­smokers to take up smoking, especially adolescents. Since teens are in an impressionable age, when they see people around them smoking, they get encouraged to try it and then it becomes a habit, increasing the incidence of teen smoking. Moreover, asthma(哮喘) and ear infections are commonly seen in children who live around smokers, so if it’s banned in public places, these places will become safe for children and teens, healthwise.
    Looking from the economic point of view, since smoking is a major contributing factor to many diseases, it leads to absence from work. Moreover, employees who smoke tend to take breaks now and then to smoke, thus cutting back on their working hours. So, if employers want to increase work productivity and want to make sure that their employees remain healthy, they should ban and stop smoking in and around offices.
    At last, smoking cigarettes adds to the pollution of the air, so if it is banned, it will help in saving the environment from further deterioration(恶化)．
    小题1:According to the passage, in what situation do smokers reduce their urge to smoke? (No more than 11 words)
    ________________________________________________________________________
    小题2:Seen from the environmental point of view, why shouldn’t people smoke in public places? (No more than 7 words)
    ________________________________________________________________________
    小题3:How does smoking in and around offices affect work productivity? (No more than 13 words)
    ________________________________________________________________________
    小题4:What is the main idea of the passage？(No more than 8 words)

    小题1:When seeing nobody around them smoking or smelling of cigarette.
    小题2:Because smoking adds to air pollution.
    小题3:Smoking can cause employees’s absence from work and reduce employees’ working hours.
    小题4:Advantages /Benefits of banning smoking in public places .

    试题分析：应该禁止在公共场所吸烟吗？作者在文中不仅给出肯定的答复，而且从正反两个方面讲述了这样做的必要性。比如禁止在公共场合吸烟可以产生让吸烟者戒烟的压力，而且对被动吸烟的人也是有好处的，此外在公共场所吸烟也会给青少年带来不良影响，这些都表明禁止公共场合吸烟是正确的。
    小题1:信息查找题。根据第二段第三句when a smoker doesn’t see anybody around him smoking or smelling of cigarette, it might reduce his urge to smoke too.可以判断作答。答案为When seeing nobody around them smoking or smelling of cigarette。
    小题2:信息查找题。根据文章最后一段smoking cigarettes adds to the pollution of the air, so if it is banned, it will help in saving the environment from further deterioration可以判断答案可填Because smoking adds to air pollution.
    小题3:信息转换题。根据倒数第二段中it leads to absence from work. Moreover, employees who smoke tend to take breaks now and then to smoke, thus cutting back on their working hours可以判断作答。答案为.Smoking can cause employees’s absence from work and reduce employees’ working hours.
    小题4:信息归纳题。文章开头提出政府发布的公共场所的禁烟令，然后提出问题Should smoking be banned in public places? Of course, it should be.，再围绕禁烟的好处展开叙述，由此判断文章中心是在公共场所禁烟的好处，所以答案为Advantages /Benefits of banning smoking in public places .

    Big storms. High waves. Technical failure. Loneliness. After battling hard times and danger for over nine months, British teenager Mike Perham made history last month as the youngest person to sail solo(单独) around the world.
    The 17-year-old made the record after he cleared the Panama Canal (巴拿马运河) and then sailed through the Caribbean and home across the Atlantic.
    Mike is only three month s younger than Zac Sunderland, the 17-year-old American boy who had taken the crown as the youngest solo around-the-world sailor in July.
    The two youngsters met in Cape Town in South Africa as they crossed the globe in different      direciions.  Mike insisted they were not rival  (竟争对手).  " No.  It's two teenagers going out there,living their dream and having the adventure of a lifetime, " he said.
    Mike may be young, but he is no stranger to sailing adventures. He picked up the hobby at age 6 when his father took him out in a small boat on a local lake.  Father and son sailed separate boats across the Atlantic when Mike was 14, making him the youngest person to cross that ocean solo. That record gave him the taste for this even greater challenge.
    On the recent journey, the scariest moment for Mike came when his sailboat was hit by storms in the southern Indian Ocean.
    "We were picked up by what felt like a 60-foot wave and threw down on our side at 90 degrees , "  he said.
    "It felt like I was going right over.  Stuff was flying around and I just thought ' Oh no' .  "
    At other times, he had to dive into the Pacific and fix problems. He tied himself to the boat, jumped into the water and went to work with a knife in 30-second dives undemeath (在......之下) the boat to cut a rope away.
    Mike said he felt proud that he made his dream come true.  " You've got to have confidence in yourself that you will make it," he said.

    Empathy
    【1】Last year,researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy,the ability to understand other people，among college students had dropped sharply over the past 1 0 years．That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time，the researchers said．Today,people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs．
    【2】Jennifer Freed，a co—director of a teen program，has another explanation．Turn on the TV,and you’re showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting，competing，and generally treating one another with no respect. Humans learn by example-and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic．
    【3】There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples．Humans are socially related by nature．Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human-and having empathy is decisive to those relationships．Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self-respect．Besides，empathy can be a cure for loneliness，sadness，anxiety,and fear．
    【4】Empathy is also an indication of a good leader．In fact,Freed says，many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things that they look for in new managers．Good social skills-including emoathy-are essential abilities that will help you succeed in many areas of life．"Academics are important．But if you don’t have emotional intelligence，you won’t be as successful in work or in your love life，”she says．
    【5】____?For starters，let down your guard and really listen to others．“One doesn’t develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking，”Freed says．
    【6】To really develop empathy, you’d better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital，join a club or a team that has a diverse membership，have a“sharing circle’’with your family,or spend time caring for pets at all animal shelter．
    小题1:According to the passage, what happened to the college students?（no more than 15 words）

    Who’s in control of your life? Who is pulling your string? For the majority of us, it’s other people—society, colleagues, friend, family or our religious community. We learned this way of operating when we were very young, of course. We were brainwashed. We discovered that feeling important and feeling accepted was a nice experience and so we learned to do everything we could to make other people like us.
    So when people tell us how wonderful we are, it makes us feel good. We long for this good feeling like a drug—we are addicted to (沉溺于) it and seek it out wherever we can. Therefore, we are so eager for the approval of others that we live unhappy and limited lives, failing to do the things we really want to. Just as drug addicts and alcoholics live worsened lives to keep getting their fix (一剂毒品), we worsen our own existence to get our own constant fix of approval.
    But just as with any drug, there is a price to pay. The price of the approval drug is freedom—the freedom to be ourselves. The truth is that we cannot control what other people think. People have their own agenda（心思，计谋）, and they come with their own baggage and, in the end, they’re more interested in themselves than in you. Furthermore, if we try to live by the opinions of others, we will build our life on sinking sand. Everyone has a different way of thinking, and people change their opinions all the time. The person who tries to please everyone will only end up getting exhausted and probably pleasing no one in the process.
    So how can we take back control? I think there’s only one way—make a conscious decision to stop caring what other people think. We should guide ourselves by means of a set of values—not values imposed（强加） from the outside by others, but innate values which come from within. If we are driven by these values and not by the changing opinions and value system of others, we will live a more authentic, effective, purposeful and happy life.
    (Note: Answer the questions in NO MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS.)
    小题1:What happens to people if they care too much for the approval of others?
    小题2:The price of the approval of others is ______________
    小题3:Why is it unreliable for us to live by the opinions of others?
    小题4:What’s the main idea of this article?

    In a family where the roles of men and women are not sharply separated and where many household tasks are shared to a greater or lesser extent, notions of superiority are hard to maintain. The pattern of sharing in tasks and in decisions makes for equality, and this in turn leads to further sharing. In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept that equality more easily than did their parents and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by cooperation rather than by the “battle of sexes”.
    If the process goes too far and man’s role is regarded as less important—and that has happened in some cases—we are as badly off as before, only in reverse.
    It is time to reassess the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a little tired of “Momism”— but we don’t want to exchange it for a “neo-Popism”. What we need, rather, is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equals. There are signs that psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men play and that they have decided that women should not receive all the credits nor all the blame. We have almost given up saying that a woman’s place is in the home. We are beginning, however, to analyze man’s place in the home and to insist that he does have a place in it. Nor is that place irrelevant to the healthy development of the child.
    The family is a cooperative enterprise for which it is difficult to lay down rules, because each family needs to work out its own ways for solving its own problems. Excessive authoritarianism has unhappy consequences, whether it wears skirts or trousers, and the ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is closely linked not only to a healthy democracy, but also to a healthy family.

    [1]While the Amazon may seem far away, we are all closely connected to it through our actions. Now there are largely the results of great demand for forest products and agriculture land, which makes its plant and animal species in danger. Fortunately, we can help save the Amazon rainforest by making the right choices in our daily lives. By being smart consumers, we can make a difference and help reduce human pressures on the forests and rivers.
    [2]Look for forest products that you don’t need to destroy forests to get. We can choose many rainforest products like Brazil nuts and coffee, which can be got without destroying forests. And at the same time the money you provide can help local people to _______________.
    [3]Recycle everything possible. Such items as batteries, cloth, glass, paper in our daily life can be recycled with different techniques. For example, the collected glass pieces are taken to a glass recycling factory where they are made into new glass bottles through a series of processing.
    [4]Buy the right pets. Many wild animals are illegally caught in the Amazon and sold as pets and large numbers of these animals die in the process. It’s important to ask where the animal comes from and to require a store to give you proof when you decide to buy a pet.
    [5]Carefully select the appliances(家用电器) in your home. For example, order low-flow shower heads (喷头), which can reduce your use of hot water and use of energy to heat the water. So it’s wise to select the appliances which can save energy.

    The old-fashioned general store is fast disappearing. This is, perhaps, a pity, because shopping today seems to lack that personal contact which existed when the shopkeeper knew all his regular customers personally. He could, for instance, remember which brand of tea Mrs. Smith usually bought or what sort of washing-powder Mrs. Jones preferred. Not only was the shop a center of buying and selling, but also a social meeting place.
    A prosperous general store might have employed four or five assistants, and so there were very few problems in management as far as the staff were concerned. But now that the supermarket has replaced the general store, the job of the manager has changed completely. The modern supermarket manager has to cope with a staff of as many as a hundred, apart from all the other everyday problems of running a large business.
    Every morning the manager must, like the commander of an army division, carry out an inspection of his store to make sure that everything is ready for the business of the day. He must see that everything is running smoothly. He will have to give advice and make decisions as problems arise, and he must know how to get his huge staff to work efficiently with their respective responsibilities. No matter what he has to do throughout the day, however, the supermarket manager must be ready for any emergency that may arise. They say in the trade that you are not really an experienced supermarket manager until you have dealt with a flood, a fire, a birth and a death in your store.  (Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)
    小题1: Why is it a pity that there are fewer old-fashioned general stores now? _____________________________.
    小题2: The shopkeeper was often the most well-informed person in the neighborhood because _____________________________.
    小题3: The words “… a flood, a fire, a birth and a death …” in the last sentence refer to _____________________________.
    小题4: What must the manager do every morning? ___________________________.

    阅读下面短文，回答文后的5个问题，并把答案写在答题卡指定区域内。
    [1] If you read a newspaper or listen to a newscast(news report) recently, you may hear or read a strange word, “staycation.” Staycation is a new word the American press(newspapers, radio, and television) is using to describe a vacation very close to your own home, or simply staying at home during your vacation. It is a combination of the words “stay” and “vacation”.
    [2] According to many news reports, these staycations are very popular among American families this year. Why? The high price of gasoline for cars and airplanes has made it very expensive for Americans to travel compared to past years. When you combine this with the weak American dollar, it all adds up to people deciding to stay close to home during their traditional summer vacations. Of course, some places are more interesting to “stay home at” than others. And if you live in a very small town, well, you may just want to skip your vacation and save your time up to next year!
    [3] Everything is expensive nowadays, and let’s face it—a vacation just may not be in your plan this year. You don’t have to give up family fun just because you can’t              ; instead, follow my tips for an economical staycation filled with old favorites and new adventures! Staycations have achieved high popularity in current hard economic times in which unemployment levels and gas prices are high. 
    小题1:What is this passage mainly about? (within one word)
    小题2:Which two words make the new word “staycation”? (within 3 words)
    小题3:What’s the meaning of “staycation”? (within 20 words)
    小题4:Why are staycation popular this year? Please list two reasons. (each within 5 words)
