　　Kelly Reeves was getting ready for a trip when her phone slipped into a sink full of water．Panic moment! She quickly picked up the wet phone and tried to turn it on, but nothing worked．Her first reaction? She got dressed, drove to the nearest store, and bought a new model at full price．

　　A new study finds that fear of losing your phone is a common illness．About 66 percent of those surveyed suffer from nomophobia or “no mobile phone phobia”．Interestingly, more women worry about losing their phone than men．

　　Fortunately, there's a solution．

　　The first step is to figure out if you have nomophobia．Checking your phone too often is one thing, but the true sign of a problem is that you can't conduct business or go about your routine when the fear becomes so severe．

　　Do you go to unusual lengths to make sure you have your phone? That's another sign of a problem．If you find you check your phone plenty of times per hour, or a total of an hour per day, there may be a problem．

　　Some of the treatments are similar to those for treating anxiety attacks：Leaving the phone behind and not checking e-mail or text messages, and then learning to tolerate the after anxiety．Even if this leads to a high level of worry and stress, the solution is to push through the fear and learn to deal with not having your phone．

　　Of course, there are also technological alternatives．Luis Levy, a co-founder at Novy PR, says he uses an application called Cerberus that can automatically track the location of his phone．To find it, he can just go to a Web site and see the phone's location．

　　He also insures his phone through a service called Asurion．The company's description of its product reads like a prescription for anxiety：“60 million phones are lost, stolen or damaged each year．You'll have complete peace of mind knowing that your phone is protected and you can quickly reconnect with family, friends and work, as soon as the very next day!”

(1)

[　　]
A．	To inform us that mobile phones are useful．
B．	To introduce the topic for discussion．
C．	To tell us we should get phones ready for a trip．
D．	To warn us that we should be careful．

(2)

The underlined word “nomophobia” in Paragraph 2 means ________．
[　　]
A．	Fear of losing mobile phones．
B．	Habits of using mobile phones
C．	Independence of mobile phones．
D．	Eagerness for new mobile phones．

(3)

Which of the following is a way to treat nomophobia?
[　　]
A．	Learning more about modern technology．
B．	Avoiding using phone for some time
C．	Not using a mobile phone in one's daily work．
D．	Protecting one's phone against any damage．

(4)

Why can the service called Asurion help to treat nomophobia?
[　　]
A．	It will give you a new phone through insurance．
B．	It lets you know other people also lose their phones．
C．	It gives you a prescription to treat nomophobia．
D．	It enables you to reconnect with your acquaintance．

　　阅读理解：

　　At one time, computers were expected largely to remove the need for paper copies of documents (文件) because they could be stored electronically．But for all the texts that are written, stored and sent electronically, a lot of them are still ending up on paper．

　　It is difficult to measure the quantity of paper used as a result of use of Internet-connected computers, although just about anyone who works in an office can tell you that when email is introduced, the printers start working overtime．“I feel in my bones this revolution is causing more trees to be cut down,” says Ted Smith of the Earth Village Organization．

　　Perhaps the best sign of how computer and Internet use pushes up demand for paper comes from the high-tech industry itself, which sees printing as one of its most promising new markets．Several Internet companies have been set up to help small businesses print quality documents from a computer．Earlier this week Hewlett-Packard Co．announced a plan to develop new technologies that will enable people to print even more so they can get a hard copy of a business document, a medical record or just a one-line email, even if they are nowhere near a computer．As the company sees it, the more use of the Internet the greater demand for printers．

　　Does all this mean environmental concerns (环境问题) have been forgotten? Some activists suggest people have been led to believe that a lot of dangers to the environment have gone away．“I guess people believe that the problem is taken care of, because of recycling,” said Kelly Quirke, director of the Rainforest Action Network in San Francisco．Yet Quirke is hopeful that high-tech may also prove helpful．He says printers that print on both sides are growing in popularity．The action group has also found acceptable paper made from materials other than wood, such as agricultural waste．

1．The growing demand for paper in recent years is largely due to________．

[　　]

A．the rapid development of small businesses

B．the opening up of new markets

C．the printing of high quality copies

D．the increased use of the Internet

2．Environmentalists believe one possible way of dealing with the paper situation is________．

[　　]

A．to encourage printing more quality documents

B．to develop new printers using recycled paper

C．to find new materials for making paper

D．to plant more fast growing trees

3．Hewlett-Packard Co．has decided to develop new technologies because________．

[　　]

A．people are concerned about the environment

B．printers in many offices are working overtime

C．small companies need more hard copies

D．they see a growing market for printers

4．What would be the best title for the text?

[　　]

A．Computers and Printers

B．Email and the Business World

C．Internet Revolution and Environment

D．Modern Technology and New Markets

阅读理解：

　　Suppose we built a robot(机器人)to explore the planet Mars．We provide the robot with seeing detectors(探测器)to keep it away from danger．It is powered entirely by the sun．Should we program the robot to be equally active at all times?No．The robot would be using up energy at a time when it was not receiving any．So we would probably program it to stop its activity at night and to wake up at dawn the next morning．

　　According to the evolutionary(进化的)theory of sleep, evolution equipped us with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking for the same reason．The theory does not deny(否认)that sleep provides some important restorative functions(恢复功能)．It merely says that evolution has programmed us to perform those functions at a time when activity would be inefficient and possibly dangerous．However, sleep protects us only from the sort of trouble we might walk into; it does not protect us from trouble that comes looking for us．So we sleep well when we are in a familiar, safe place, but we sleep lightly, if at all, when we fear that bears will nose into the tent．

　　The evolutionary theory explains the differences in sleep among creatures．Why do eats, for instance, sleep so much, while horses sleep so little?Surely cats do not need five times as much repair and restoration as horses do．But cats can afford to have long periods of inactivity because they spend little time eating and are unlikely to be attacked while they sleep．Horses must spend almost all their waking hours eating, because what they eat is very low in energy value．Moreover, they cannot afford to sleep too long or too deeply, because their survival(生存)depends on their ability to run away from attackers．

(1)

The author uses the example of the robot in space exploration to tell us ________．
[　　]
A．	the differences between robots and men
B．	the reason why men need to sleep
C．	about the need for robots to save power
D．	about the danger of men working at night

(2)

Evolution has programmed man to sleep at night chiefly to help him ________．
[　　]
A．	keep up a regular pattern of life
B．	prevent trouble that comes looking for him
C．	avoid danger and inefficient labour
D．	restore his bodily functions

(3)

According to the author, we cannot sleep well when we ________．
[　　]
A．	are worrying about our safety
B．	are overworked
C．	are in a tent
D．	are away from home

(4)

Cats sleep much more than horses do partly because cats ________．
[　　]
A．	need more time for restoration
B．	are unlikely to be attackers
C．	axe more active than homes when they are awake
D．	spend less time eating to get enough energy

(5)

Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?
[　　]
A．	Evolution has equipped all creatures with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking．
B．	The study of sleep is an important part of the evolutionary theory．
C．	Sleeping patterns must be taken into consideration in the designing of robots．
D．	The sleeping pattern of a living creature is determined by the food it eats．

　　Several years ago, my parents, my wife, my son and I ate at one of those restaurants where the menu is written on a blackboard．After a wonderful dinner, the waiter set the check in the middle of the table．That’s when it happened：my father did not reach for the check．

　　Conversation continued．Finally I realized that I should pick up the check!After hundreds of restaurant meals with my parents, after a lifetime of thinking of my father as the one with dollars, it had all changed．I reached for the check, and my view of myself suddenly changed．I was an adult．I was no longer a kid．

　　Some people mark off(区分)their lives in years, I measure mine in small events．I didn’t become a young man at a particular age, like 16, but rather when a kid who wandered in the streets called me “mister．” These events in my life are called “milestones”(里程碑)

　　There have been other milestones．The cops(policemen)of my youth always seemed big, even huge, and of course they were older than I was．Then one day they were suddenly realized that all the football players in the game I was watching were younger than I was．They were just big kids．With that milestone gone was the dream that someday, maybe I, too, could be a football player．Without ever having reached the hill, I was over it．

　　I never thought that I would fall asleep in front of the TV set as my father did．Now it’s what I do best．I never thought that I would go to the beach and not swim, yet I spent all of August at the shore and never once went into the ocean．I never thought that I would appreciate opera, but now the combination of voice and orchestra attract me．I never thought that I would prefer to stay home in the evenings, but now I find myself passing up parties．I used to think that people who watched birds were strange, but this summer I fond myself watching them, and maybe I’ll get a book on the subject．I feel a strong desire for a religious belief that I never thought I’d want, feel close to my ancestors(祖先)long gone, and echo my father in arguments with my son．I still lose…

　　One day I bought a house．One day－what a day!–I became a father, and not too long after that I picked up the check for my own father．I thought then it was a milestone for me．One day, when I was a little older, I realized it was one for him, too, another milestone．

阅读理解：

　　Our boat floated on, between walls of forest too thick to allow us a view of the land we were passing through, though we knew from the map that our river must from time to time be passing through chains of hills which crossed the jungle plains．Nowhere did we find a place where we could have landed：where the jungle did not actually spread right down into the river, banks of soft mud prevented us going ashore．In any case, what would we have sailed by landing?The country was full of snakes and other dangerous creatures, and the jungle was so thick that one would be able to advance only slowly, cutting one’s way with knives the whole way．So we stayed in the boat, hoping we reached the sea, a friendly fisherman would pick us up and take us to civilization．

　　We lived on fish, caught with home-made net of string(we had no hooks), and fruits and nuts we could pick up out of the water．As we had no fire, we had to eat everything, including the fish, raw I had never tasted raw fish before, and I must say I did not much enjoy the experience; perhaps sea fish which do not live in the mud are less tasteless．After eating my raw fish, I lay back and dreamed of such things as fried chicken and rice, and ice-cream．In the never-ending damp heat of the jungle, ice-cream was a particularly frequent dream．

　　As for water, there was a choice：we could drink the muddy river water, or die of thirst．We drank the water．Men who had just escaped what had appeared to be certain death lose all worries about such small things as diseases caused by dirty water．In fact, none of us suffered from any illness as a result．

　　One day we passed another village, but fortunately nobody saw us．We did not wish to risk being taken prisoners a second time：we might not be so lucky to escape in a stolen boat again．

(1)

What they could see in the boat was only ________．
[　　]
A．	high wall
B．	villagers from time to time
C．	vast land
D．	heavy woods

(2)

They couldn’t land because ________．
[　　]
A．	the mud on the shore was too soft
B．	the forest was too thick to let them go through
C．	they could not find the mark on the map
D．	they could not find anyone to lead them out of the forest

(3)

The passage infers that the forest was ________．
[　　]
A．	rich of fruits and animals to be served as food
B．	not very thick as they could advance slowly by cutting the branches
C．	full of various dangerous beings
D．	full of ancient trees

(4)

[　　]
A．	Escape
B．	Scenes of a River
C．	How to Survive on a boat
