4.Not next to me,please!
When you are traveling by plane,there are some passengers you just don't want to have next to you.
(1)APerhaps you normally like them,but when you are sitting next to them on a plane it's a different thing.They usually spend all the flight (飞行) moving around and dropping their toys on the floor,and when they're drinking their orange juice it ends up on your trousers.(2)ESo you can't have the little sleep that you were planning.
B Conversation makers
You recognize this type as soon as you sit down.They immediately start talking about the plane,or the weather,or they ask you a personal question.It's very difficult not to talk to these people.(3)GC Nervous fliers
These are the people with white faces who sit down and immediately ask for something to drink.Every five minutes they call a flight attendant (服务员) to ask if there are any problems with the plane.(4)CThe best thing to do is to pretend to sleep.
D Space invaders
(5)DBut they have a terrible habit of taking up all their room,and some of your room too.They usually sit so that you can't move,with their arms and legs in your space.

A.Small children
B.Careless parents
C.They also tell you about air disasters.
D.These people are not necessarily very big.
E.Then they decide they want to play with you.
F.Some people want to talk all through the flight.
G.You'll probably have to keep talking until the plane lands.

20.Getting to Now:How to Beat the Procrastination Habit
I am a procrastinator(拖拉者).I always have been.I've tried all sorts of things to beat the habit.Here are some techniques I've been using to try to force myself to get to now:
Set aside blocks of time to do things.When I was talking with my wellness coach earlier this year,she asked me why I didn't exercise more often."(36)D,"I said."Something always comes up."She wasn't impressed."J.D.,"she said,"You have to make time.Make an appointment with yourself to run or to go for a bike ride."The same principle applies to other things you might procrastinate.
(37)C.Often I'll be sitting on the back porch reading a book,and it will occur to me that some chore needs to be done-mending the fence,for example."(38)G,"I tell myself.Wrong!What usually happens is that I forget to write it down,and even if I do,I just look at the list and procrastinate for weeks on end.The best move is to actually do the chore when I think of it.(Assuming,of course,that I have the time at that moment,which I usually do.)
Use a timer to bring you back to reality.Part of the reason I procrastinate is that I'm a day dreamer.(39)A.One way to keep on track is to use a timer.I use the Ultrak Jumbo Countdown Timer,but not as often as I should.I set it for 48minutes.When it goes off,(40)E:Am I doing what I'm supposed to be doing?
Do not multitask.I often start many things at once,but I never actually do any of them.In order for me to get something done,I need to focus my attention on it.Trying to do several things at once is a sure way to be sure they'll all be unfinished tomorrow.
A.I'm always lost in thought
B.it brings me back to reality
C.If it comes to mind,then do it
D.I don't have the time
E.it serves as an instant reality check
F.Do it right away if you are asked to do something
G.I need to write that down so I can remember it.

17.Many students have to live with roommates while going to school or university.Having a roommate can be one of the best experiences,or easily one ofthe worst.(56)E
Follow these five tips to avoid the common mistakes that make good roommate relationships worse.
Talk things out.(57)B. If something happens,sit down with your roommates and have a face-to-face conversation.Complaining about your roommates behind their backs creates nothing but awkward situations and general unhappiness.
(58)A. Some roommates become the best of friends,and some don't.Don't put pressure on yourself or your roommate to reach this level,especially when you first meet.Remember,you are trying to make a new friend,not scare your roommate away.And if your roommate doesn't end up being your best friend,there is no need to worry about it.
Clean up after yourself.Or at least,keep your mess on your side. (59)C. But being considerate with where you put your own stuff will help you avoid the arguments.
Ask before you take.This applies to food,clothes,supplies and anything else that you don't own.(60)G.Even if you both agree to share everything you should still ask.

A.Don't expect to be best friends.
B.Communication is of vital importance.
C.You don't need to keep the room clean and organized all the time.
D.Rooms can be really easy for a mess to pile up.
E.If you want to have a good relationship with your roommate,it all starts with you.
F.Not all roommates can become your best friends.
G.Show your roommate that you have respect for his or her belongings.

4.Do you forget to turn off the lights and heaters when you go out of a room?In 2040 it will not matter.They will turn themselves off and on again when you return.You will choose the temperature for each room,the lighting and the humidity(湿度).A sensor(感应器)will find the presence of a human(and,with luck,ignore the dog!) and turn the systems on,and when the humans leave,it will turn them off again.
The sensors will work through the central home computer,and they will do much more than just turn the fires and lights on and off for you.They will find faulty electrical appliances(用品),plugs or switches,separate them so that they cannot harm anyone,and then warn you that they need repair.They will detect fire and if you are out of the house,the computer will call the firefighters.It will not be too difficult because the locks on the outside doors will be electronic.You will open them using your personal card-the one you use for shopping-maybe using a number known only to you.
It will be impossible to lose the key,and a housebreaker will have to tamper(胡乱摆弄)with the lock or with a window.It is not very difficult to make such tampering send a signal to the computer.
The computer will be more than a fireman-policeman-servant.It will be an entertainer,and most of your entertainment will come right into your home.It does now,of course,but by 2040"entertainment(娱乐)"will mean much more.For one thing,you will be able to take part actively,rather than just watching.

8.The author intends to tell us that in 2040D.
A.we will live without lights and heaters
B.we will use much more lights and heaters
C.there will be no switches of lights and heaters
D.lights and heaters will be on and off automatically
9.Which of the following statements is NOT true?C
A.The sensor is multi-functional.
B.Without a computer,the sensor cannot do much.
C.The sensor will detect fire and make an emergency call when you are at home.
D.It is less likely to lose the key.
10.According to the author,in 2040,new technologyA.
A.will free us from the keys we use today
B.will turn everything into sensors
C.will make the locks out of date
D.will get rid of all crimes
11.Thanks to computers,in 2040peopleC.
A.will have no entertainment outside
B.will replace TV with computers
C.will be controlled by computers
D.will have more fun at home.

14.Identity theft (身份盗用) is one of the fastest-growing crimes.Identity theft is a crime in which your personal information is stolen by someone and is used in an illegal way.When your identity is stolen,the thief often does fraud (诈骗) with that.(36)BAnd you have to be responsible for the traffic accidents he causes.
Why is identity theft becoming so common?(37)GAnd the wealth of personal details people post on social networks such as Facebook also makes it easier for identity thieves to obtain personal information.
Many people are not aware of the problems caused by this crime.They wake up from their carefree attitude only when they become a victim and suffer the damages caused by this crime.(38)DAnd this is why it is important that every person should become cautious when using the Internet.The following tips may prevent you from identity theft.
First,make sure your computer has an updated anti-virus and firewall system installed.Second,only enter your credit card details on secure sites,or websites that you've used before.Third,(39)F Your date of birth,names of schools attended,phone number or the names of your parents are often required to verify (证明) an identity,and thieves can use this information too.Fourth,avoid sharing files as this gives other people access to your hard drive.Fifth,never open suspicious e-mails from unknown source.Last but not least,create complex passwords using a combination of numbers and keyboard symbols.(40)C

B.He may borrow money from the bank in your name.
C.And change your passwords on a regular basis.
D.There is no cure for identity theft except prevention.

F.Avoid giving away too much personal information on social networking sites.
