2. in 考查介词。从句意可知此处指作者所在的班级,介词用in。

3. 考查动词。固定句型:it takes sb some time to do sth“做某事花费某人多长时间”,故在prepare前加to。

4.properly →proper考查形容词。此处是修饰名词应该用形容词,把properly改为proper。

Nowadays women appear to have a positive image of themselves as safer drivers than men.

In a survey done for insurer MetLife, 51% of women said they drive more safely. The evidence is on their side: Men are 3.4 times more likely than women to get a ticket for careless driving and 3.1 times as likely to be punished for drunk driving. “Women are on average less aggressive and more law abiding (守法的) drivers, which leads to fewer accidents,” the report says. However, not all male drivers share the same opinion. Of the men surveyed by MetLife, 39% claimed male drivers were safer. The findings did back them upon one point: automotive knowledge. The report showed that more men are familiar with current safety equipment such as electronic stability control,which helps prevent rollover accidents.

Auto safety unavoidably matters to Money. Insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amounts of claims, and for now, that mainly includes women. In general, women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men. A study by the website Insweb also showed that auto insurance rates are lower for women in most states. Among individual states, women get the greatest, advantage in Wyoming (where they pay 20% less), South Dakota and Washington, D.C, where their insurance costs are 16% lower.

“More than 11,900 male drivers died in US traffic accidents in 2009,compared with just under 4,900 women drivers” according to the study. “Based on miles traveled, men died at a rate of 2.5 deaths per 100 million miles traveled, vs.1.7 deaths for women.”

1.According to the study,female drivers ________.

A. are more aggressive while driving

B. are more interested in auto knowledge

C. are more likely to stick to driving laws

D. are more familiar with safety equipment

2.Insurance companies focus on female driver clients probably because they________.

A. cause more accidents on the road

B. pay more money to the insurance companies

C. take the most part of the insurance clients

D. have the lowest amount of money on insurance claims

3.We can infer from the passage that________.

A. men are 3.1 times more likely to get tickets than women

B. all women in the USA pay the same for their auto insurance

C. more female drivers die every year than male drivers

D. women are generally safer drivers than the opposite gender

4.The writer mainly develops paragraphs by________.

A. giving examples

B. making comparisons

C. drawing a conclusion

D. presenting an argument

A small piece of fish each day may keep the heart doctor away. That’s the finding of a study of Dutch men in which deaths from heart disease were more than 50 percent lower among those who consumed at least an ounce of salt-water fish per day compared to those who never ate fish.

The Dutch research is one of three human studies that give strong scientific support to the long held belief that eating fish can provide health benefits, particularly to the heart.

Heart disease is the number-one killer in the United States, with more than 550,000 deaths occurring from heart attacks each year. But previous research has shown that the level of heart disease is lower in cultures that consume more fish than Americans do. There are fewer heart disease deaths, for example, among the Eskimos of Greenland, who consume about 14 ounces of fish a day, and among the Japanese, whose daily fish consumption averages more than 3 ounces.

For 20 years, the Dutch study followed 852 middle-aged men, 20 percent of whom ate no fish. At the start of the study, average fish consumption was about two-thirds of an ounce each day, with more men eating lean fish than fatty fish.

During the next two decades, 78 of the men died from heart disease. The fewest deaths were among the group who regularly ate fish, even at levels far lower than those of the Japanese or Eskimos. This relationship was true regardless of other factors such as age, high blood pressure, or blood cholesterol(胆固醇)levels.

1.In which section of a newspaper can we read this passage?

A. Ads B. Movies

C. Briefs D. Health and Diet

2.The passage is mainly about _________.

A. the high incidence of heart disease in some countries

B. the changes in people’s diet

C. the effect of fish eating on people’s health

D. the daily fish consumption of people in different cultures

3.The phrase “this relationship” in paragraph 6 refers to the connection between ____ and the level of heart disease.

A. the amount of fish eatenB. regular fish-eating

C. the kind of fish eaten D. people of different areas

4.From the passage we know the author is most probably ___________.

A. a heart doctor B. a science researcher

C. a supporter of healthy eatingD. a university student

People are being tricked into Facebook with the promise of a fun, free service without realizing they’re paying for it by giving up loads of personal information.

Most Facebook users don’t realize this is happening. Even if they know what the company is up to, they still have no idea what they’re paying for Facebook because people don’t really know what their personal data is worth.

He also urged the Federal Trade Commission to set guidelines for social networking sites. “I think the senator rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how people could choose to use them or not to use them,” Schrage admits.

I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade our privacy, it’s only the beginning,which is why I’m considering cancelling my account. Facebook is a handy site, but I’m upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I don’t know. That’s too high a price to pay.

Science Fiction

The science fiction type of entertainment is considered by most to be fathered by Jules Verne (A Journey to the Center of the Earth and Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea) and H. G. Wells (The Time Machine and The War of the Worlds). Sci-Fi, as it is commonly shortened, is a fictional story in which science and technology have a significant influence on the characters and plot. Many such works are guesswork about what the future holds and how scientific findings and technological advances will shape humankind.

Writing in the late 1800s, Jules Verne was remarkably successful in his 10 guesses about future technologies of air conditioning, automobiles, the Internet, television, and underwater, air, and space travel. Unbelievably, of all places from which to choose, Jules Verne guessed Tampa, Florida, USA as the launching site of the first project to the Moon, which was only 200 kilometers away from the actual 1969 location at Cape Canaveral, Florida.

One of the best-known science fiction books is Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell. Published in 1949, it was not meant as a prediction, but as a warning: Orwell was describing what he saw as the outcome of the ideas, trends, and emerging technologies of his time. Many invented terms from this novel have become common in everyday use, such as “big brother” and “doublethink”. Even the author’s name has been made into an adjective—Orwellian—and has become a warning descriptor for situations where privacy is lost and the individual becomes sacrifice under a totalitarian(极权主义) government. Nineteen Eighty-Four was translated into sixty-five languages within five years of its publication, setting a record that still stands.

What helps bring science fiction into being is usually a new discovery or innovation. The author creates an analysis of the potential influence and consequences and then wraps it in a pleasant story. For example, the beginning of space exploration was followed a few years later by the Star Trek television program and movie series. Advances in genetics(遗传学) cause fantasies of the end of disease, horrors of eugenics(优生学), and thrillers where creatures disappearing long ago are brought back to life. The science fiction author’s self-determined role is that of field glasses for humanity—searching the world of future possibilities upon the road which we are traveling.

1. What can science fiction offer to people?

A. A forecast of how a new discovery could influence mankind.

B. A thoughtful look at the present drawbacks of technology.

C. An analysis of why a new technology could be used to harm human.

D. A thoughtful look at the past and what brought us to this point in history.

2.Which of the following best summarizes the description of Nineteen Eighty-Four?

A. A prediction of future technologies.

B. A warning of cruel and unfair ruling.

C. The consequence of scientific findings.

D. An imaginary perfect world of freedom.

3.From the passage we can learn that _____.

A. Nineteen Eighty-Four adopted some popular terms

B. H.G. Wells predicted the Internet in the late 1800s

C. Cape Canaveral was mentioned in Jules Verne’s fiction

D. Star Trek movie series were based on space exploration

4.According to the author, what is the role of science fiction in society?

A. A moral compass.

B. A reference of technology.

C. A record of science development.

D. A consideration of possibilities.
