Life online can be a much richer experience when you aren't restricted to just written words and still pictures. Even if you're new to the Net, you've probably heard about multimedia online--listening to audio, watching animations and videos, even playing in three-dimensional space. Sound and movement make information come alive.
To experience it, you'll need special pieces of software called plugins. The term “plugin” refers to a small, addon piece of software which extends the capabilities of your web browser, like Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Explorer, turning your computer into a radio or TV.
When you arrive at a web page which contains a file requiring a plugin which you don't have, you will usually receive a message asking, “If you want to get it by downloading it and installing it into your computer.” Most of the time, the installation will be automatic.
Occasionally, you'll run into a downloaded file which needs to be decompressed or unzipped before installation. Once installed, plugins run automatically, without you having to do anything.
Many multimedia controls still need to be obtained from the developer but are installed automatically.
Shock wave is a good example of this. All you need to do is go to the Macromedia site and click on the link to install the Active X control. The rest happens automatically. The next time you go to a “shocked” website, the shock wave control loads and plays the movie.
Most plugins and controls can be downloaded for free on the Internet, although not all will work with every system. Some of them, for instance, only work with Windows 95.
(1)Plugins can help us to do all of the following except _______.
[ ]
A．listening to music
B．watching animations and videos
C．playing three-dimensioned games
D．searching for information on the Net
(2)The correct explanation about “plugin” is _____.
[ ]
A．a radio or TV connected with a computer
B．a small, addon piece of hardware which improves your web browser
C．a small, addon piece of software which can turn your computer into a radio or TV
D．a small, addon piece of software like Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Explorer
(3)When we go to a “shocked” website a second time, ______.
[ ]
A．we should go to the Macromedia site and click on the link to install the Active X control
B．the shock wave control loads itself and plays the movie for us
C．we will be asked whether to download the shock wave control or not
D．we have to buy the shock wave control and load it
(4)Most of the time, how can we get a plugin before automatic installation?
[ ]
A．We have to buy it from the developer.
B．We have to borrow it from the developer.
C．We have to rent it from the developer.
D．We can obtain from the developer without paying.

As a third-year high school student, I feel that students today study English merely for the purpose of getting high scores in all sorts of so-called English exams. This phenomenon misleads students like my classmates into making a great effort to deal with English exams, not the rich language itself. Needless to say, it is unfortunate.
I started the voyage in the ocean of the English language at an early age. Being fed up with reciting each word taught in every class, I soon gained the idea that English was a bore! Luckily for me, under the vivid pen of Charlotte Bronte, the life of Jane Eyre touched me so much that I spent several sleepless nights to read the whole book. This marked the change of my attitude to-wards English from hating to loving. I began to be inspired by the wisdom of European and American literature written in English and was amazed by the beauty and richness of the language. As time went by, the more I read, the more I found English lovely. I could still remember one winter vacation when I raced into one school library to borrow my longed-for English novels. At night, when soft light spread on the pages, my expecting heart beat with the author's. I was so eager to get on with my reading that I could hardly sleep. My world had come alive! I was 16 at the time.
Now, I am often asked why I read so many“useless”things in English and how to study English well. My response would be,“Learn English as a language, not as an exam subject.”Then, I caught sight of disappointing eyes and doubts. Indeed, that's what I concluded from my study of the English language. Honestly, to me, English is truly a magic box that can grab my soul and absorb my entire mind. It's filled with wisdom and adventures which are hard to explain and share. I believe many people would agree with me and be sorry for the present situation of high school English teaching. So I'd like to call Upon English learners and friends to save our beloved English from being misconducted.
(1) What makes the author feel unsatisfied in studying English?
[ ]
A．The writer's starting learning English too early.
B．The incorrect aim of studying English.
C．The boring English.
D．The“useless”things on English.
(2) What brought the writer interest in English again?
[ ]
(3) When do you think the writer read the English literature?
[ ]
(4) Who does the writer think are to blame for the unfortunate English study?
[ ]

[1]A long time ago, there was an Emperor who told his horseman that if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he liked, then the Emperor would give him the area of land he covered. Sure enough, the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover 78 . He kept on riding and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible. When he was hungry or tired, he did not stop because he wanted to cover as much area as possible. Finally he came to a point when he had covered a substantial area and he was exhausted and was dying. Then he asked himself, "Why did I push myself so hard to cover so much land area? Now I am dying and I only need a very small area to bury myself."
[2]The above story is similar with the journey of our Life. We push very hard everyday to make more money, to gain power and recognition. We neglect our health, time with our family and to appreciate the surrounding beauty and the hobbies we love.
[3]One day when we look back, we will realize that we don't really need that much, but then we cannot turn back time for what we have missed.
[4]Life is not about making money, acquiring power or recognition. Life is definitely not about work! work is only necessary to keep us living so as to enjoy the beauty and pleasures of life. Life is a balance of work and play, family and personal time. You have to decide how you want to balance your Life. Define your priorities, realize what you are able to compromise but always let some of your decisions be based on your instincts. Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim of human existence.
[5]So, take it easy, do what you want to do and appreciate nature. Life is fragile, Life is short. Do not take life for granted. Live a balanced lifestyle , and enjoy life!

科目：高中英语 来源：2013届辽宁省东北育才学校高二上学期期中考试英语题 题型：阅读理解
If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.
Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety.
The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration（登记）card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.
The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.
With so many loopholes （漏洞） in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”.
1. The underlined words in this passage means to “______”.
A. be ready to help others B. make good use of one’s friends
C. be a little ahead of others D. gain something at other’s expense
2. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. While taking a taxi in Finland, you can get off without first paying your fare.
B. In a big hotel in Finland, you can enjoy free meals if you’re living in the hotel.
C. The bosses in Finland pay the employees according to registration of their working hours.
D. The workers are always honest with their working hours.
3.We can learn from the passage that ______.
A. the Finnish society is of very high moral （道德） level
B. there are many loopholes in everyday life in Finland
C. in Finland, most taxi drivers will not charge you anything
D. everyone in Finland is like a gentleman, for they have faith in themselves
4.Which of the following is the best title of the passage ?
A. Life in Finland B. A Society with “Foolish” People
C. What a Life D. Honest accounts of the Finns
