2．Last weekend，the four members of my family spent an enjoyable holiday at the Magic Kingdom-Disneyland．And one event made our visit seem truly magical．
We got to the front of the line at Space Mountain，only to find out that our little daughter Gloria couldn't take her ice-cream on the ride．We were so excited that we all forgot ice-cream was not allowed on the ride．
Gloria broke into tears and we all had no idea what to do．Then Murphy，one of the staff（员工） members，came over．She bent down and told Gloria that she would hold the ice-cream for her and give it to her when she finished the ride．Gloria said，"Promise？"Then she gave Murphy her ice-cream，and she completely enjoyed the ride．
Sure enough，as we walked out the exit，there was Gloria's new friend with"her"ice-cream．
Now you and I both know what happened，because we know that an ice-cream won't last twenty minutes on a summer afternoon in Florida．Murphy knew'what time we would get off the ride；
she went to the nearest shop and bought a brand-new ice-cream thirty seconds before we walked out the exit．Gloria said，"Thank you，"but I'm sure she thought it was the same ice-cream．
We know that someone tried hard to make our visit special．Thanks so much for going above and beyond!
Your fan，
Carmen Rivera

1．"When can I get a cell phone？"The answer is when your parents think you need one，though many kids seem to be getting them around age 12or 13．Some younger kids may have them because their parents see it as a matter of safety and convenience．For example，a kid can call mom and dad when sports practice is over．And a cell phone can give kids almost instant access（快捷通道） to their parents if something goes wrong or they need help．It can give parents quick access to their kids so they can check on them and make sure they're OK．
If you do get a cell phone，make some rules with your parents，such as how many minutes you're allowed to spend on the phone，when you can use your phone，when the phone must be turned off，and what you will do if someone calls you too often，and so on．
You'll also have to learn to take care of the phone in your life．Keep it charged（充电） and store it in the safe place so it doesn't get lost．And whatever you do，don't use it in the bathroom．I know someone who dropped her phone in the toilet!

D．Take care not to lose it．

20．When a terrible earthquake hit，many people were killed and many houses fell down．After the earthquake，all the newspapers reported many stories about some of the families who were（41）introuble．
One Sunday，whenI（42）was reading（read） a newspaper，a specialpicturetouched me．It showed the clothing sizes of each member and asked for help．Ithought that this（43）would be（be） a good chance to teach my children to help those who were（44）less luck（luck） than themselves．Isaid to my seven-year-old twins，Brad and Brett，and three-year-old Meghan，"We have so much，and these poor people now have nothing．We'll share（45）whatwe have with them．"
Ifilled a box with foods and clothes．WhileIwas doing this，Iencouraged the boys（46）to choose（choose） their toys anddonatesome of their less favorite things．Meghan watched quietly（47）asthe boys took out their old toys and games and put them together．Then she walked away．A few minutes（48）later（late） she came back with Lucy，her much-loved doll．S he put the doll on top of the other toys．"Oh，dear，"Isaid．"You don't have to give Lucy away．You love her so much．"
Meghan said，"Lucy makes（49）me（ I ） happy，Mommy．Maybe she'll make another little girl happy，too．"
Ilooked at Meghan for a long moment．She taught me a lesson．It's easy（50）to give（give） something that we don't want any more，but harder to give what we cherish，isn't it？．

18．In face of global warming，much effort has been focused on reducing greenhouse gas emissions through a variety of strategies．But while much of the research and innovation has concentrated on finding less-polluting energy alternatives，it may be decades before clean technologies like wind and solar meet a significant portion of our energy needs．
In the meantime，the amount of CO₂ in the air is rapidly approaching the limits proposed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change （IPCC）．"As long as we're consuming fossil fuels，we're putting out CO₂，"says Klaus Lackner，a geophysicist at Columbia University，"We cannot let the CO₂ in the atmosphere rise indefinitely．"
That sense of urgency has increased interest in capturing and storing CO₂，which the IPCC says could provide the more than 50% reduction in emissions needed to reduce global warming．"We see the potential for capture and storage to play an integral （基本的） role in reducing emissions，"says Kim Corley，Shell's senior advisor of CO₂ and environmental affairs．That forward thinking strategy is gaining support．The U．S．Department of Energy recently proposed putting 1billionintoanew2.4billion coal-burning energy plant．The plant's carbon-capture technologies would serve as a pilot project for other new coal-burning plants．
But what do you do with the gas once you've captured it？One option is to put it to new uses．Dakota Gasification of North Dakota captures CO₂ at a plant that converts （转换） coal into synthetic（合成的）natural gas．It then ships the gas 200miles by pipeline to Canada，where it is pumped underground in oil recovery operations．In the Netherlands，Shell delivers CO₂ to farmers who pipe it into their greenhouses，increasing their production of fruits and vegetables．
However，scientists say that the scale of CO₂ emissions will require vast amounts of long-term storage．Some propose storing the CO₂ in coal mines or liquid storage in the ocean，Shell favors storing CO₂ in deep geological structures such as saline （盐的） formations and exhausted oil and gas fields that exist throughout the world．

67．What does the author intend to tell readers？C
A．How to find more oil and natural gases．B．How to reduce greenhouse gas emissions．
C．How to deal with the greenhouse gas creatively．
D．How to make good use of solar and wind energy．
68．According to the passage，the following statements are true EXCEPT thatB．
A．the idea of capturing and storing CO₂ is supported by the American government
B．it is widely accepted that the CO₂ captured should be stored in deep geological structures
C．capturing and storing CO₂ is intended to handle the problem with global warming
D．long-term storage of CO₂ is no easy job because of the scale of CO2emissions
69．By using CO₂，Dutch farmers have been able toA．
A．increase their production of fruits and vegetables  B．convert coal into synthetic natural gas
C．pump it underground in oil recovery operations  D．make exhausted oil and gas fields productive
70．How would you understand the underlined part in the third paragraph？C
A．It means a project training new pilots who will serve the new strategy．
B．It refers to the coal-burning energy plant that U．S government sponsors．
C．It implies the carbon-capture technologies will be popular once successful．
D．It shows the new idea of reduction of CO₂ emissions needs a large sum of investment．

17．An Israeli law banning too skinny models went into effect with the start of 2013．The law，approved last March in Israel，requires models to prove they have maintained a Body Mass Index （BMI） of at least 18.5for three months before a fashion show．That means a woman who is 68inches tall can weigh no less than 119pounds．
"This law is another step in the war against eating disorders，"said physician Adatto．"Underweight models，"he explained，"can no longer serve as role models for innocent young people who copy their false image of being skinny．"
But some critics in this country say it is misguided，focusing on weight instead of health．They also say the Israeli ban is bound to fail because of the strong power of the fashion industry．"I think it's an approach that isn't going to work．"said eating disorder expert Susan Ice，who worked with an organization which creates a healthy working environment for models．
But Adatto told the reporter that he began to concern the issue after meeting an ambitious model who looked like she needed to be hospitalized．He said．"I realized that only legislation（立法） can change the situation．There was no time to waste； so many girls were dieting to death．"
However，the efforts to regulate models'weight in Spain and Italy have not resulted in significant changes in part because of difficulties in determining reliable methods of measuring weight and health．
Still，folks including Ice say there's no denying that images from Hollywood and the fashion industry can be difficult for young women to deal with．"Certainly I don't believe the modeling industry has caused the rise in eating disorders，but it makes it harder，"she says．"It's a difficult recovery environment，worshiping thinness as the beauty ideal．"

64．One benefit the new Israeli law may bring isD．
A．to change the working conditions of models       
B．to lower the chance of skinny models'death
C．to provide guidance for women worshiping thinness
D．to prevent models from suffering from eating disorders
65．In the opinion of the critics，the law won't succeed becauseD．
A．it misleads young women to form a bad eating habit．
B．it doesn't provide a proper approach that can work well．
C．it doesn't create a healthy working environment for models．
D．the fashion industry is much too influential．
66．What caused Adatto to think that a law was needed to change the situation？A
A．Meeting an ambitious but too skinny model．
B．Establishing his fashion model agent．
C．Being interviewed by a reporter．
D．Seeing a model die from eating disorders．

16．How would you like an easy way to earn $2，500？All you have to do is to sit around and wait for your meals．There's a catch，however．You have to stay in a chicken cage with a stranger for a whole week．There are no books or television or radio for amusement．You can't leave until the week is up．And a camera will be recording your every move．
Two people actually took the job．The idea came from Rob Thompson，a video artist．He wanted to make a film about the way animals are treated．His goal was to raise people's awareness of the living conditions of animals that are raised for food．He decided to pay $5，000 out of his own savings to two people who were willing to live like chickens for a week．
    To Rob's surprise，quite a few people answered his advertisement．He had interviewed and selected Eric，a 24-year-old restaurant worker，and Para，a 24-year-old chemist．The plan was for them to spend seven days together in a chicken cage that was six feet long and three feet wide．A camera would record their experiences，which would take place in an art museum．
    The week was long and difficult．They slept on a hard wooden floor．They couldn't stand up without hanging their heads．They ate vegetables and drank water from a garden hosepipe．Their only privacy was a toilet surrounded by a curtain．There were no sinks，mirrors，or toothbrushes in the cage．Their only inspiration was the two framed checks that hung on the wall outside the cage．Visitors who came here were warned，"Do not feed the humans．"
    Finally it was over，and Para and Eric appeared from their cage．They had survived the week，and they each had a $2，500 check in their hands．When Rob Thompson opened the cage，Eric came out，changed into clean clothes，and ate a chocolate bar right away．"It's great to be able to stand up，"he said．Para just changed her clothes and left．After a week of visitors and reporters watching her，she didn't want to talk to anyone．

56．What kind of person is Rob Thompson？B
   A．He is curious about people's personal life．B．He is kind-hearted to animals．
   C．He hates people around．D．He likes to help poor people．
57．The underlined word"catch"probably meansD．
   A．unsolved problem               B．surprising wonder
   C．unbelievable fact                D．hidden difficulty
58．What made it most difficult for the two to stay in the cage？D
   A．They didn't know each other．B．They couldn't lie down to sleep in the cage．
   C．They didn't have meat to eat．D．They had to do almost everything under others'eyes．
59．Which of the following would be the best title for this passage？C
   A．Easy Way to Earn $2，500    B．Do Not Feed the Humans
   C．Living Like a Chicken            D．Getting Along Well Anyway．
