8．Rapid advances in a new technology will soon transform science fiction into reality--meaning people will have driverless cars，small robots at their command and the ability to experience being in another place without leaving home，predicted Google executive chairman Eric Schmidt at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona，the planet's largest cell phone trade show．
Introduction of books available online，Internet translation of languages and voice recognition for computers all happened much faster than anyone could foresee and that technological research into even more previously unheard of advances is progressing at a fast speed．
"People who predict that holograms（全息图）and self-driving cars will become reality soon are absolutely right，"Schmidt told thousands of attendees．Research under way will lead to situations where people can put themselves at events like a rock concert so that they can see，hear and even feel the event．And turn down the volume，if it's too loud．
One attendee said she was scared that the possibility could be dehumanizing，but Schmidt replied by holding up his cell phone into the air．"It has an off button and it is here on the right，"Schmidt said．"My point is that it is all about your control．If you don't like my version of a rock concert，I'm not forcing you to go．"In the future，small robots could be used so busy people can send them to events for video and voice transmissions when their presence isn't required，Schmidt said．
Technology in the near future will redefine the relationship among people in the world．"With technology comes power and with power comes choice，and smarter resourceful citizens are going to demand a better deal for their new life，"Schmidt said．

28．From the passage，the new technologyD．
A．largely depends on science fiction
B．will eventually replace humans'presence
C．amazingly improves people's social skills
D．can unexpectedly bring new various choices
29．Why did Schmidt give the example in Paragraph 4？C

D．To compare the benefits of using the new technology．

19．It's holiday season and time for shopping．There are a bunch of items on your shopping lists ranging from small gifts，toys and festive decorations to Christmas and New Year cards．What's your first reaction to products labeled"Made in China．"？If you still tend to relate"Made in China"to poor quality，you need to update your ideas．China's ability to produce high-quality products has been recognized by a growing number of foreigners．It's a misunderstanding to associate low quality with"Made in China"．
Cameron Purdy，a Web user，says that just because China manufactures poor-quality products does not mean it cannot manufacture high-quality products．He explains that the poor-quality products one purchases in the US for example，are made in the quality that the American companies ask for．"The price that you pay for the product has no relationship to the cost of its manufacturing，"suggested Purdy．For example，for an item priced at 20intheUS，thecostofmanufacturingitpaidbytheAmericancompanyisusuallylessthan1．To guarantee the room for profit（利润），the Chinese co-manufacturer spends less than $1to produce the item．
Amanda Wu，who lives in Shanghai，noted that many top brands have manufacturing factories located in China，and the most convincing example of China's manufacturing quality is Apple products．On the back of the iPhone，one can find the product is Made in China-"Designed by Apple in California．Assembled （装备）in China．"Chinese and foreign Web users commented that some Chinese products with good reputations around the world are Haier，Lenovo，GREE，Huawei and China Railway High-speed．
On the other hand，foreign misunderstandings can sometimes affect Chinese people's minds．For instance，when Chinese people travel abroad，some would still avoid buying products Made in China．It's time for the world to stop relating Made in China with low-quality products．Just remember，you get what you pay for．

28．How does Purdy make his point more convincing？D
A．By using quotes．
B．By making experiments．
C．By making comparisons．
D．By giving examples．
29．How many Chinese products are well received worldwide in the text？C
A．Seven．B．Six．C．Five．D．Four．
30．When abroad，Chinese people don't buy Chinese products because ofD．
A．High price B．Low quality C．Old fashions D．Foreign misunderstandings
31．What is the main idea of the text？D
A．Chinese products are the best in the world．
B．How to tell apart the quality of Chinese products．
C．How to improve the quality of Chinese products．
D．Chinese products don't have to mean poor quality．

16．African SafariEssential information you need to know before booking your African Safari in Southern Africa-These tips will enhance the experience that you have．
Things to Consider Before Booking an African Safari
（1）Book in Advance
African Safaris are now hugely popular and good safari camps often get booked out more than a year in advance，especially during the high season from July through to October．
（2）Choosing which game park
Different parks have different topography and weather patterns-this greatly affects animal movements at different times of the year．If you want to target certain species of animals，then some parks are better than others for certain species．
（3）Choosing which lodge or safari camp
A typical safari camp has between 10 and 20 beds，it is an intimate safari experience and very personalized．However，there are also hotels in some places，either inside or just outside a national park，which can sleep anything up to 300 people．
（4）Guiding
The quality，experience and knowledge of the game at any Safari camp is almost the most important factor to consider．Good guides can transform your experience from ordinary to exceptional．
（5）What's the Best Time of Year to go on Safari
Understandably as the seasons change so does the safari experience．It is highly advisable to find out the best time of year for the safari area that you are intending to visit．Prices will change dramatically between the high and the low season，so good deals are to be had in the low season but it is important to know the difference，as your experience will be vastly different．
（6）The Price
Going on safari is not cheap whichever way you do it，but the price range can be enormous．Unfortunately，safaris in most cases are a case of"you pay for what you get"．
（7）Fly-in safari or not
Using small charter planes is sometimes an absolute necessity for camps in remote areas，where road transfers are just not practical or viable．Thse flights can increase the overall cost of the safari substantially but generally they are worth it and allow you the flexibility to visit a variety of safari camps in different locations．
（8）Use an Agent
As you can see from all the information and options detailed above，there is great deal to understand and unless you go on safari several times a year it is impossible to know all this stuff．

3．A sense of humor is something highly valued．A person who has a great sense of humor is often considered to be happy and socially confident．However，humor is a double-edged sword．Sometimes it can damage self-respect and annoy others．
People who use bonding humor tell jokes and generally lighten the mood．They're thought to be good at reducing the tension in uncomfortable situations．They often make fun of their common experiences，and sometimes they may even laugh off their own misfortunes．The basic message they deliver is：We're all alike，we find the same things funny，and we're all in this together．
Put-down humor，on the other hand，is an aggressive type of humor used to criticize others through teasing．When it's aimed against politicians，as it often is，it's extremely funny and mostly harmless．But in the real world，it may have a harmful effect．An example of such humor is telling friends an embarrassing story about another friend．When challenged about their teasing，the put-down jokers might claim that they are"just kidding，"thus allowing themselves to avoid responsibility．This type of humor，though considered by some people to be socially acceptable，may hurt the feelings of the one being teased and thus have a bad effect on personal relationships．
Finally，in hate-me humor，the joker is the target of the joke for the amusement of others．This type of humor was used by comedians John Belushi and Chris Farley-both of whom suffered for their success in show business．A small amount of such humor is charming，but routinely offering oneself up to be embarrassed destroys one's self-esteem，and fosters depression and anxiety．
So it seems that being funny isn't necessarily an indicator of good social skills and well-being．In certain cases，it may actually have a negative effect on interpersonal relationships．

21．In bonding humor，people create a relaxing atmosphere byA．
A．joking about experiences they share
B．showing their personal relationships
C．teasing experiences of their friends
D．laughing at other's misfortunes
22．Which of the following is among the common targets of put-down humor？C
A．Comedians．B．Jokers．C．Politicians．D．Actors．
23．In the passage，the author mainly conveysB．
A．humor can be classified into three kinds
B．humor has its bright side and dark side
C．humor deserves to be studied
D．humor is highly valued．

17．People lie all the time，but depending on how skilled they are，it can be difficult to determine when someone is lying to you．Do you know how to recognize the signs that someone is lying to you？Some of the signs are obvious while others are more subliminal（难以察觉的），but there are ways to catch someone in a lie，you just need to know what they are．（36）B
（1）Liars make false eye contact．
A person who is lying to you won't make eye contact with you or they make too much eye contact．If a person is lying they may feel you are watching him and he will look down at the floor or away from your eyes．Some people try to stare you in the face deliberately．（37）G
（2）Liars avoid using contractions（缩略形式）
The liar will say"I did NOT notice that．"instead of"I didn't notice that．"（38）A．Usually it ends up making the story a lot less believable．
（3）Unnatural Body Language．
Liars often feel uneasy，turn away from the person to whom they are speaking，blink（眨眼） rapidly，smile less and have pitch changes in their tone of voice．They may cross their arms which is a sign of being"closed"or trying not to reveal too much information．（39）C．They could touch parts of their face，an ear or a nose or play with keys or another item that they have in their hand．
（4）Liars provide additional information without being asked for it
（40）EThe result is the more complicated the story is，the less believable it will be．You will have the feeling that nothing could be further from the truth．

A．This is an attempt by the liar to be absolutely clear what they mean．
B．Here are some easy ways to recognize liars and catch lies．
C．Sometimes people look unnatural when they are lying
D．They will get angry if you doubt their story

18．The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet，chat and go where we've never been before．But just as in face-to-face communication，there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on-line．（36）DImagine how you'd feel if you were in the other person's shoes．
For anything you re about to send：ask yourself，"Would I say this to the person's face？"If the answer is no，rewrite and reread．（37）G
If someone in the chat room is rude to you，your instinct（本能）is to fire back in the same manner．But try not to do so．（38）EIf it was caused by a disagreement with another member，try to fix the situation by politely discussing it．Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room．
（39）AOffer advice when asked by newcomers，as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate．When someone makes a mistake，whether it& a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer，be kind about it．If it's a small mistake，you may not need to say anything．Even if you feel strongly about it，think twice before saying anything．Having good manners yourself doesn't give you license （特许） to correct everyone else．（40）BAt the same time，if you find you are wrong，be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended．
