    “Mum, why does that man have a radio even though he is homeless?” I asked.

    “He bought 8.,”she replied.

    16．How do you pay for your coffee？Is it with change？I use my tap-and-go card．I don't even need to enter my PIN number or a signature to approve payment．It's quicker and everybody in the queue is happy．
    Contactless payments are gaining popularity．Those concerned about security will be pleased to know that the amount of money you can spend in one-go is limited-in the UK it's currently£30．But if the card is used a few times in a row，a PIN number will be needed．If a thief gets hold of your card and goes on a crazy shopping，your bank covers you against  fraud．However，if someone steals your bills，that's your bad luck!
    For those who are always forgetting where they put their cards，there's a new solution：wearable technique：clothing and devices that have combined electronic technology．Kenneth Cukier，an economist and technology expert，says："You can simply take any wireless card and the chip from it that your bank might issue you with，and you can put it in a coat．When you want to make a payment just wave your arm in front of the terminal（终端） and leave the coffee shop with your latte．This is intended for people who don't want to take their card out of their wallet，use their phone or their watch．"
    Good，isn't it？And new ways of spending money are not stopping there．The future is all about biometrics （生物识别技术）．Very convenient if you are at the beach or a festival-there's a new system in development which will make it possible to read the unique maps of veins （静脉） under the surface of your finger，and use them to confirm payments-or prove that it's you making the payments．You just need to remember which finger you registered with．
    So spending money is becoming easier all the time．And the temptation to buy more stuff increases．But it's worth bearing in mind that earning the money in the first place will still require the same effort．Back to work then!

    28．A thief wouldn't be able to buy much with a stolen wireless card becauseB．
    A．the card doesn't permit withdrawing money more than£30
    B．there's a limit to the amount of money spent at a time
    C．the wireless card must be used a few times in one-go
    D．a PIN number is always required before payment
    29．The underlined word"fraud"in Paragraph 2is closest in meaning to"C"．
    A．theft              B．protection          
    C．cheat              D．prevention
    30．What must be done before you use biometrics for payment？D
    A．You must prove that it's you who are making the payments．
    B．You must have a smart phone or a watch with you．
    C．You must have something to read your fingers．
    D．You must have one of your fingers registered．
    31．What can be learned from this passage？A
    A．People's banking information is kept in a small chip．
    B．People can only use a wireless card to consume coffee．
    C．Wearable technique is the safest way to make a payment．
    D．A tap-and-go card needs a signature to approve payment．

    I have always been the big fan of music, but to be honest I don’t know any person whom has ever openly disliked it. It’s one of true friend in life because it can be enjoyed by anyone and everyone. With books, you have to be able to read, and music has no limits, no special conditions and was easily enjoyed by all. I don’t think there are many things in life for which have such a directly and clear influence on one’s feeling. Obvious, however, there are some people who are much influenced by music, and of course it depends what sort of music they’re into. Watch people react to one of their favorite songs is actually the best thing ever.

    Jimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago. He has good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.

    One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please. I insist.” Jimmy agreed.

    Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed look on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?” Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself.

    Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.

    “Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office. I just know you’d be a trustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.

    1.Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?A. He was out of work B. He was bored with his job C. He wanted a higher position D. He hoped to find a better boss

    2.What did Jimmy see on the way to the interview?A. A friend’s car had a flat tyre B. a wild man was pushing a car C. a terrible accident happened D. an old man’s car broke down

    3.How did Jimmy feel on hearing the interviewer’s question?A. He was sorry for the other applicants B. There was no hope for him to get the job C. He regretted helping the old man D. The interviewer was very rude

    4.What can we learn from Jimmy’s experience？A. Where there is a will, there is a way B. A friend in need is a friend indeed C. Good is rewarded with good. D. Two heads are better than one

    Homestay provides English language students with the opportunity to speak English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home.

    What to Expect

    The host will provide accommodation and meals. Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least Once a week. You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.

    Accommodation Zones

    Homestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2.3 and 4of the transport system. Most hosts do not live in the town center as much of central London is commercial and not residential. Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger accommodation in a less crowed area. It is very convenient to travel in London by Underground.

    Meal Plans Available

    ·Continental Breakfast

    ·Breakfast and Dinner

    ·Breakfast, Packed Dinner

    It’s important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast. Your accommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice, cereal, bread and tea or coffee. Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England. Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by desert, fruit and coffee.

    Friends

    If you wish to invite a friend over to visit,you must first ask your host’s permission. You have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy.

    Self-Catering Accommodation in Private Homes

    Accommodation on a room-only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and often a main living room. This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long -stay student . However, it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practice English at home quite as much.

    6．As a child，I loved the natural world．Maybe it had something to do with growing up in a small town．Maybe it was because nature had so many secrets and I was thrilled to be a detective，uncovering them one by one．
        I'm sure that when people from my generation think back to their childhoods，many recall a tree house，family picnics，or a passion for fishing，hunting，or horseback riding．Most of us had an occasional appetite for dirt as we explored backyards and nearby vacant lots．As someone who grew up in such a world，I enthusiastically encourage parents to bring back that happy childhood pastime of letting kids get muddy once in a while．
        I have more than my own experience to show as evidence that this is a good thing：Study after study indicates that children grow up healthier and happier when they experience a direct connection to nature．Just as importantly，those young people are also far more likely to value the natural world when they've developed a connection to it．The need for thishas never been greater than it is today．
        Our natural world is extraordinary in its diversity and complexity，but it's also under tremendous threat．In the past decade，countless tropical rainforests and coral reefs have been lost forever due to human activities，and many more are critically endangered．These areas don't just house animals and plants found nowhere else on the planet； they also provide important economic services that benefit human health．Streams make fresh water clean； forests reduce flooding； tree provide medicines and insects pollinate （给…授粉） crops．The natural world represents an economic backbone for the future of local communities by promoting tourism and local people's livelihoods．
      The damage to the earth's living systems is fast approaching irreversible （不可逆转的）"tipping points，"and although we now have a wealth of technological tools-both to understand the threats and to assist with solutions-there's still no substitute for a connection to the real world when it comes to understanding the complexity of natural systems．
        Besides，establishing a connection between child and nature is one of the best and simplest ways to inspire young people to make good decisions about personal health，climate change，and sustainable （可持续的） use of natural resources．They need to know what affects the chemistry of the ocean，why tropical rain forests are critical to life in the temperate regions and how millions of years are required to create fossil oil from dead plants．This understanding becomes realest and most meaningful when a person is connected to the natural world．

    46．What does the underlined word"this"in Paragraph 3 refer to？C
    A．Children developing a connection to the nature．
    B．Children growing up healthily and happily．
    C．Children valuing the natural world．
    D．Children studying and studying．
    47．Insects are mentioned in Paragraph 4 to show thatA．
    A．humans benefit from nature
    B．humans benefit nature in many ways
    C．some insects are dangerous to humans
    D．some insects are in danger of extinction
    48．What can we learn from Paragraph 5？D
    A．It is impossible to improve the environment．
    B．Natural systems are too complex to understand．
    C．Technology can help humans improve the environment．
    D．Kids cannot know about the nature without experiencing it．
    49．The author writes the passage mainly toD．
    A．describe her childhood to the readers
    B．encourage readers to protect the nature
    C．stress the importance of natural science
    D．advise parents to let kids experience nature．

    3．Indoor Plants
    As with any house guests，indoor plants require a certain amount of basic，regular attention if they are going to feel at home．The first consideration when purchasing plants is to make reasonably sure that they are suitable for the condition in which they are going to be housed．
    A general rule for most plans being brought indoors for the first time is to ensure that they have reasonable temperature of not less than 60degrees Fahrenheit，a position out of cold air，safe from pets and not exposed to strong sunlight．
    Plants love company．When plants are growing together，they create an atmosphere of damp around themselves which is far more beneficial than hot dry conditions．A group of plants will also present a more pleasing picture and provide an opportunity for a creative arrangement．There is no secret to this．Just rely on your natural feeling for harmony．
    Watering and feeding plants are probably the two areas of care that are the least well understood，but，again，if you follow a few simple rules，your plants should do well．Cold Slightly warm water is therefore the answer．It is usually better to pour water on to the soil on the surface of the pot rather than put the water into the pot holder at the bottom．Avoid giving small amount of water at regular intervals-it is much better to wet the soil right hrough the pot in one go and then to allow it to dry noticeably before giving it a further watering．
    The majority of indoor plants will be in active growth from March until October，and during this time，the established ones will benefit from regular feeding．This may mean feeding with a weak liquid fertilizer（肥料） at each watering or at intervals of a week or ten days with fertilizer at a standard strength．It is important，however，to ensure that plants are not fed when growth is inactive，when the soil in the pot is dry，or too soon after the plants has been potted up．
    63．In Paragraph 2，the author mainly tells us toD．
    A．but plants that help clean indoor air
    B．create a new environment with plants
    C．put plants on the sunny side of the room
    D．make sure of suitable conditions for plants
    64．What's the benefit of plants growing together？B
    A．It provides owners good company．
    B．It helps the air around them slightly wet．
    C．It makes it convenient to look after them．
    D．It allows owners to draw a pleasant picture．
    65．While watering the plants，what should we remember to do？A
    A．Use water that is a little warm．
    B．Pour the water into the pot holder．
    C．Give small amount of water at one time．
    D．Consider further wateringin dry weather．
    66．What is the best time to feed the plants？B
    A．When the soil is dry．
    B．When their growth is active．
    C．When the temperature is high．
    D．When they have just been planted．

    4．Teen drivers，be careful：Mum and Dad will soon know exactly how fast and how far you drove their car．And if you don't use the seat belt，don't even think about turning on the stereo，which allows you to listen to the music in your car．
    At the 2015New Year International Auto Show，American car maker Chevrolet gives your parents the power to check on your driving．
    The"Teen Driver"feature（特征）appears with the 2016Chevrolet Malibu，a new type of mid-size car．
    The system is very user-friendly．Parents with a private code（密码）can pull up a dashboard（仪表板）display，including highest speeds reached and distance driven．
    Chevrolet isn't the first car maker to offer such technology．For example，Ford has a similar system called MyKey．But"the industry is moving toward highly developed controls over a teen's driving，"said Andy Gryc，a car technology expert．
    Chevrolet said it is a safety need．"Teens are more likely to be involved in a car accident，so many parents were asking us to bring something to market that can teach safe driving habits，"said Chevrolet communications manager Chad Lyons．
    Teens are three times more likely to die in traffic accidents than grown-ups，according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety （IIHS）．
    Lyons thinks that a big problem is distracted（注意力分散）driving，such as texting or listening to music．
    Teens with their friends in the car like to listen to loud music．"If the driver and the front passenger aren't wearing their seat belts，the stereo won't turn on，"said Lyons．"Parents can also control the level of sound．"
    If a teen driver goes beyond a certain speed，the car can speak to the driver，warning them of their speed．
    "It's a way for parents to feel safe while they're not in the car with their teen，"Lyons said．

    25．MyKey is similar to the"Teen Driver"feature because of  itsA．
    A．purpose           B．shape        C．quality         D．type
    26．How can the feature prevent distracted driving？C
    A．By telling teens about their speed．
    B．By stopping drivers from texting．
    C．By avoiding loud music in the car．
    D．By asking people to use seat belts．
    27．What is the text mainly about？A
    A．A new technology for road safety．
    B．An international car show for teens．
    C．An unusual kind of stereo safety system．
    D．A new type of fast-speed car．
