    19．Mrs．Squirrel and I Negotiated Terms
    I was sitting in the room reading when I heard a loud noise．To defend my home from break-in，I picked up my defense weapon---a broom and went out．There on the roof of my porch（门廊），I saw a grey fluffy squirrel．I drove her away with the broom，but the next day I heard her again．
    I searched squirrels on the net and found because their teeth keep growing，they have to constantly chew on things to shorten their teeth．This was disturbing so I asked my husband to call in some wildlife control people．
    On Monday morning two men showed up，with guns in their hands．I pointed uneasily to the hole in my porch roof．They held up their guns．Suddenly I saw in my mind the baby nursery inside．I stopped them and confirmed that they wouldn't harm her．They hesitated，but finally put down their guns．Then they brought out a bottle of deodorizer（除臭剂）and sprayed it into the squirrel's home．They told me she would not like the smell and would leave．
    There was no sign of Mrs．Squirrel，so they blocked the hole，took my cheque for﹩250and left．
    Shortly after they left，Mrs．Squirrel returned from her shopping trip．She was mad at being
    driven out and began feverishly clawing at the porch roof．In order to stop the destruction of my
    home，I drove her away with the broom again．
    Each day thereafter，Mrs．Squirrel continued her attack on my possession．I then called the company to report that"SHE'S BAAAAAACK…"The receptionist said that if Mrs．Squirrel had managed to find another way into my porch roof，it would be a new charge．I replied I couldn't continue contributing my husband's hard-earned income to their silly wildlife experts and hang up．
    I went to the porch and banged on the roof．Mrs．Squirrel came out and glared at me．We negotiated some terms，came to an agreeable arrangement and went back into our respective homes．
    All is quiet these days，although large quantities of materials have been removed from my garage wall and my daughter claims that some of her doll-house furniture has disappeared．I still hope that Mrs．Squirrel would leave，but I will wait until it is warmer and hopefully until after the birth of the little ones．

    59．What did the author think of the squirrel at first？A
    A．Troublesome．  B．Dangerous．  C．Interesting．  D．Clever．
    60．Why didn't the author ask the wildlife control people to come again？B
    A．She worried about the safety of the squirrel．
    B．She thought the company charged too much．
    C．She decided to drive away the squirrel herself．
    D．She doubted the ability of the wildlife control people．
    61．What can we learn from the passage？C
    A．Getting rid of the squirrel needs patience．
    B．The squirrel has destroyed the author's house．
    C．The author has developed affection for the squirrel．
    D．The author singed an agreement with Mrs．Squirrel．
    62．The author has written the passage in a （an）D way．
    A．persuasiveB．seriousC．informativeD．amusing．

    3．Here's how Brandon spends several hours each day：he walks up to strangers in New York City，asks for permission to take their pictures and then interviews them．
     With a combination of friendliness and good，but not excellent，photography skills，Stanton has achieved one of the most unlikely success stories in a city filled with them．The 29-year-old began posting photos and quotations on his Facebook page，Tumblr blog and personal website，humansofnewyork．com，three years ago，and has owned more than one million fans．
      Now，hundreds of those pictures and interviews have been collected into a book，Human of New York，which landed into No.1 spot on the New York Times hardcover nonfiction （精装非小说类）best-seller list after its first week on sale．
      Stanton，a hybrid（混合） of interviewer，photographer and eager chronicler（历史记录者），is a Georgia native with no training as a journalist．He has owned two cameras in his life and admits he has never learned the technically correct way to use them．When he started the project in 2010，he had just lost his job as a bond trader in Chicago and decided to shift to a completely new career．When he moved to New York，he was friendless and nearly broke．Much of his time was spent on ambitious project of photographing10，000 people and mapping their whereabouts as a sort of virtual map of New York．
    Initially，people didn't pay any attention to him，which made him disappointed．But he went on and his project gradually attracted an audience，starting with mostly people in their 20s．He has transformed himself into a recognizable face with a high income．
     Yaniv Soha，Stanton's editor，said the young man has the rare gift of being able to connect with random people．"It's about the stories as much as it is about the photos，"Soha said．"It's really about his ability to relate to people and convey what makes them individual．"
    51．What does Brandon Standon spend hours doing every day？C
    A．Dreaming about ambitious projects．
    B．Trying to get more fans to visit his personal website．
    C．Taking photos of strangers and interviewing them．

    52．What makes strangers willing to talk to Standon？A
    A．His friendliness
    B．His high photography skill．
    C．His handsome look
    D．His best selling books．
    53．When Stanton started his picture and interview project，A．
    A．he barely had any money
    B．he had just quit his old job and started a new one
    C．he had made many good friends in New York
    D．he had already been famous on the Internet
    54．According to Santon's editor，what has made him successful？B
    a．He is good at communicating．
    b．He is skilled in photographing．
    c．He knows how to chronicle important events．
    d．He conveys what makes people individual．
    A．a，b               B．a，d                 C．b，d                 D．b，c
    55．What's the right order of the following events？C
    a．Human of New York became a best-seller．
    b．Standon lost his job as a bond trader in Chicago．
    c．He started his project and few people paid attention．
    d．Standon posted photos and quotations on his Facebook page．
    A．b-a-c-d            B．a-c-b-d              C．b-c-d-a          D．b-d-a-c．

    13．A baby mermaid （美人鱼） was just born in Finland； Justin Bieber is getting married； iPhone 6is going to be released this year…We read rumors every day on the Internet．With the help of social media，rumors-no matter whether they are true or false-spread like wildfire，and sometimes we can't be sure what to believe．
    Now，an international group of researchers might be able to make it easier for us．They are working on a lie detector that could separate online truth from lies，Discovery News reported．
    Named after the Greek goddess Pheme，famed for spreading bad rumors，the system is far from a traditional lie detector，which works by attaching a machine to a potential liar．Instead，Pheme analyzes the rumor directly．
    When a rumor comes out，on a micro blog，for example，Pheme can trace the source of information to see if it was released by reliable sources like experts or news agencies．If it wasn't，Pheme then examines the history and background of the account to identify whether it was created just to spread rumors．
    After finding the source of the rumor，the system can keep a close eye on how other users react to the rumor-either confirming or denying it-to help analyze and further determine the reliability of the information．
    Some people might find the Pheme system unnecessary based on the idea that false rumors never survive for long and people always get to the truth over time．While that's a fair point，there is a certain class of rumors，such as"a tiger is at large"or"an asteroid （小行星） is about to hit the Earth"，that can cause panic among people and thus lead to serious consequences．
    These are cases when we need to be able to check for accuracy quickly．"Our system aims to help with that，by tracking and verifying （查证） information in real time，"a leading researcher Kalina Bontcheva，at the University of Sheffield，UK，told the BBC．
    According to Bontcheva，Pheme is still under development and won't be ready for another 18months．
    Until then，there's an old-fashioned technique that you can use to protect yourself from false information-ask questions，check sources and don't believe any claim until you've seen the evidence．

    63．What is the article mainly about？C
    A．Tips on how to deal with rumors online．
    B．Factors that make rumors so easy to spread．
    C．A new device that can check whether online rumors are true or not．
    D．An introduction to some types of lie detectors．
    64．How does the Pheme system determine the reliability of a piece of information？B
    A．Based on how the majority of people react to it．
    B．Based on the reliability of its sources and the history of its authors．
    C．By collecting and examining relevant information to further confirm it．
    D．By making use of an"Internet bot"to track and verify the information．
    65．Which of the following statements might the author agree with？D
    A．The Pheme system is not very helpful because all rumors eventually die down．
    B．The Pheme system will be ready to help social networks become more accurate by the end of．
    C．The Pheme system can identify almost all kinds of rumors on social networking sites．
    D．The Pheme system aims to respond to rumors quickly so as to reduce the impact of false ones．
