    小题1:According to Warranty Limitations, a product can be under warranty if __________.
    A. shipped from a Canadian factory                   B. rented for home use
    C. repaired by the user himself                          D. used in the U.S.A.
    小题2:According to Owner’s Responsibilities, an owner has to pay for __________.
    A．the loss of the sales receiptB．a servicer’s overtime work
    C．the product installationD．a mechanic’s transportation
    小题3:Which of the following is true according to the warranty?
    A．Consequential damages are excluded across America.
    B．A product damaged in a natural disaster is covered by the warranty.
    C．A faulty cabinet due to rust can be replaced free in the second year.
    D．Free repair is available for a product used improperly in the first year.

    小题:D
    小题:B
    小题:C

    【文章大意】文章是一篇烘干机的保修情况说明，列举了产品保修的覆盖范围和不属于保修的几种情况。
    小题1:根据Warranty Limitations保修限制部分的“Applies only to product used within the United       States or in Canada ”适用于在美国或者加拿大使用的产品，可知D项正确。根据“if product is approved by Canadian Standards Association when shipped from factory.”适用于产品从工厂运输时由加拿大标准协会批准的产品，并不是说一定要从加拿大的工厂运出来。因此A项错误。根据 Products used on a rental basis not covered by this warranty，租用的产品是不覆盖在保修范围的，因此排除B项。根据Service must be performed by an Amana servicer服务必须是在Amana的维修工来操作的，因此排除C项。
    小题2:根据从该部分的最后两条里面找。需要付钱的项目里面没有A项，因此排除。根据Pay for extra service costs, over normal service charges, if servicer is requested to perform service outside servicer’s normal business hours可知，需要付额外的服务费用，比通常的服务费用要高，如果维修人员在正常工作时间之外被要求服务的话。因此B项是正确的，即维修人员的超时服务。根据Pay for service calls related to product  installation可知，你需要支付的是叫安装服务的电话费用calls，而不是安装费用，故排除C项。D项也没有在文中提到，因此排除掉。
    小题3:根据最后一段的This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may have others which vary from state to state 意为这个保修给予了你具体的合法权利，同时你也可能有其他的一些权利，这在不同的州情况有所不同，因此排除A项，A项意为间接损失在全美都不包括。根据Product has damage due to……floods,可知，由于自然灾害，比如洪水，造成的损失，是不属于保修的，因此排除B项。根据Product is improperly installed or applied意为不恰当的安装和使用造成的损失是不保修的。因此排除D项。由此得出结论，答案是C项，意为机箱第一年内生锈的会免费更换。

    Almost everyone wants to get smarter. We struggle to improve our  36_ , intelligence and attention. We drink cup after cup of coffee to help us  37_  the day.
     38 __, a new study published in Current Directions in Psychological Science warns that there are 39___ to how smart humans can get.
    Each of our body parts develops in a certain way for a reason.  40  _, we are not 3 meters tall  41 _ most people’s hearts are not strong enough to send  42 _  up that high. Scientists say that our thinking ability works in the same way. A baby’s brain size is limited by a series of __43  , such as the size of the mother’s pelvis (骨盆). If our brains developed to be bigger, there could be more  44  during childbirth.
    The study of Jews, who have an average IQ much _ 45_  than other Europeans, showed they were more  _46_  to develop diseases of the  _47_  system. This might be because of their increased brainpower.
    If intelligence cannot be improved, can we at least get better at _ 48 _ ? Not really, say scientists. They studied  _49_  like caffeine (咖啡因)that improve attention. They found the drugs only helped people with serious  50 _ problems. For those who did not have trouble paying attention, the drugs could have the  51 _ effect. Scientists say that this suggests there is a(n)  52 limit to how much people can or should concentrate.
    Our memory is also a “double-edged sword”. People with extremely good memories could  53__ having a difficult life because they cannot  _54 bad things that happen to them.
    Thomas Hills, one of the authors of the paper, said that   55  all the problems in trying to get smarter, it’s unlikely that there will ever be a “super mind”.

    Frogs are animals that can live both in water and on land. There are more than 5,000 kinds of frogs on the earth. The earliest known frogs lived about 190 million years ago and the frogs today still look the same. Here are some fun things that you might not know about frogs. Enjoy!
    The Biggest and the Smallest Frogs
    Some frogs can be very big. The biggest kind of frog is the Goliath Frog in West Africa. Its body can be nearly 30cm long, about the size of a large cat. The Gold Frog and the Poison Frog are the smallest frogs in the world. They are less than 1cm long. Though the Poison Frog is very small, it is not weak at all. It is dangerous. Any animal that eats it will die very soon.
    The Best Jumpers
    Frogs are very good at jumping. They developed jumping legs so that they would not be eaten by other large animals. Using their big strong legs, more frogs can jump over 20 times their own length. It is like a person jumping over about 30,48. The Australian Rocket Frog can even jump over 2m, which is 50 times its body length(5.5cm). That might be the reason why frogs are called the best jumpers on the earth.
    The Cryogenic Animal
    Some frogs like the Common Wood Frog have a special ability to live in very cold places. When the temperature goes down, they become ice frogs. 2/3of their body water freezes. Their hearts stop, and their breathing stops too. You may think they are dead, but in fact they are not. Maybe we humans can learn the way that the frogs do for medical purpose.
    小题1:The earliest frogs lived about ________ million years ago.
    A．20B．30C．50D．190
    小题2:The Gold Frog is one of the ________ frogs on the earth.
    A．smallestB．biggestC．strongest D．weakest
    小题3:________ can jump over 2m.
    A．The Goliath FrogB．The Common Wood Frog
    C．The Poison FrogD．The Australian Rocket Frog
    小题4:What will happen to a Common Wood Frog at very low temperature?
    A.It will die very soon.   B. It will be an ice frog.
    B.It will become dangerous.   D. It will become very small

    John Davis doesn’t use his GPS system in his car. Instead of guiding the direction, the Delaware farmer uses it to determine where and how much fertilizer to use on the crops on his 4,000-acre family-owned farm. Technological advances like that last year helped Davis and other Ohio farmers set a record for corn product. Ohio's corn crop in 2009 totaled 546 million bushels(蒲式耳), despite a cooler and wetter than normal spring, a dry summer and a delayed, wet harvest. Davis said. “I knew it would be a good crop, but it was much better than we expected.”
    A farmer can map his fields on GPS, spotting where soil turned out to be least fertile（肥沃的） and using more fertilizer the next year in those areas where corn didn’t grow as well.
    Although Ohio farmers produced more corn, it was grown on less land than in the past years. Total area used for corn in Ohio was 3.35 million acres, about the same as in 2008 but down from 3.85 million acres in 2007, said Dwayne Siekman, director of the Ohio Corn Growers Association. “When you look at the total number of acres in Ohio used for corn, it’s clear that farmers are able to do more with less,” he said. “American farmers can grow five times more corn on 20 percent less land than they did in the 1930s, saying that modern farming techniques are necessary for a growing demand in the world today.” That technology includes using improved seeds that can withstand(忍受) greater temperature extremes and pests, Siekman said.
    Farmers aren't the only ones who benefit. Consumers(消费者) do, too, as food costs reduce in the face of “enough supplies of corn,” said Fred Yoder, who runs a 1,500-acre corn, soybean and wheat farm in Plain City. “This is the best, highest-producing corn crop that I've raised in 30 years,” he said.
    小题1:Most people usually use the GPS system for ______.
    A．driving their cars
    B．telling the position
    C．mending the car
    D．supplying the sunshine
    小题2:The farmers in Ohio use GPS to ______.
    A．check if the soil is fertile in some areas
    B．control the rain of the place
    C．water the crops if the weather is dry
    D．draw the map of all the crops
    小题3:Why did Ohio farmers produce more corn?
    A．Because they expanded more land to grow corn
    B．Because they turned to technological advances
    C．Because they used more and more fertilizer.
    D．Because they supplies themselves with more money.
    小题4: From the passage, we can know _____.[
    A．John Davis hadn’t expected a good harvest.
    B．farmers grew less land than in the 1930s
    C．improved seeds cost much more money
    D．the output of corn in the same field is increased.

    Medicine comes in lots of different packages. Painkillers in a tablet can make your headache go away. Antibiotic cream (抗菌素膏) from a tube can prevent your cuts from becoming infected. But can medicine come packaged in chicken eggs?
    A team of scientists from Scotland say “yes”. They’ve engineered special chickens that lay eggs with disease-treating drugs inside. 
    These eggs come from chickens that have been engineered to produce certain drugs inside their egg whites.
    These drugs are made of molecules called proteins(蛋白质). Animals make thousands of proteins — they’re the main element in skin, hair, milk and meat. Since animals can make proteins easily, they’re good candidates (候选者) for making protein drugs.
    Researchers have already made cows, sheep and goats produce protein drugs in their milk. But chickens are cheaper to take care of, need less room, and grow faster than these other animals. Those qualities could make chickens a better choice to become living drug factories, says Simon Lillico of the Roslin Institute near Edinburgh, Scotland.
    Lillico and a team of researchers changed chickens’ DNA — the code that tells cells how to make proteins — so that the birds’ cells made two protein drugs. One drug can treat skin cancer, and the other treats a nerve disease called multiple sclerosis (多发性硬化).
    The scientists changed the chickens’ DNA so that the birds made these drugs only in their egg whites. This protects the chickens’ bodies from the drugs’ possible harmful effects and makes it easy for scientists to collect the drugs.
    小题1:If you cut your finger, you may use ________ to cure it.
    A．painkillers in a tabletB．antibiotic cream from a tube
    C．chicken eggs D．protein drugs
    小题2:Which of the following statements is NOT true?
    A．Scientists from Scotland have succeeded in packing medicine into chicken eggs.
    B．The drugs are made of molecules called proteins.
    C．Scientists chose chickens for their experiments because chicken eggs taste delicious.
    D．The animals are good candidates for making protein drugs.
    小题3:The drugs in special chicken eggs can ________.
    A．treat lung cancer B．help reduce headache
    C．change people’s DNA D．treat multiple sclerosis
    小题4:We can infer from the passage that ________.
    A．eating eggs is the best choice for the patients now
    B．scientists changed the chicken’s DNA and put all the drugs in chicken eggs
    C．we may eat special eggs as drugs when we are sick in the future
    D．the drugs produce harmful effects on the chicken’s bodies
    小题5:The best title for the passage is ________.
    A．Chicken Eggs to Replace MedicineB．Chicken Eggs as Drug
    C．Chicken Eggs and MedicineD．Chicken Eggs and Animal Milk

    One might expect that the ever-growing demands of the tourist trade would bring nothing but good for the countries that receive the holiday-makers. Indeed, a rosy picture is painted for the long-term future of the holiday industry. Every month sees the building of a new hotel somewhere, and every month another rock-bound Pacific island is advertised as the 'last paradise(天堂) on earth'.
    However, the scale and speed of this growth seem set to destroy the very things tourists want to enjoy. In those countries where there was a rush to make quick money out of sea-side holidays, over-crowded beaches and the concrete jungles of endless hotels have begun to lose their appeal.
    Those countries with little experience of tourism can suffer most. In recent years, Nepal set out to attract foreign visitors to fund developments in health and education. Its forests, full of wildlife and rare flowers, were offered to tourists as one more untouched paradise. In fact, the nature all too soon felt the effects of thousands of holiday-makers traveling through the forest land. Ancient tacks became major routes for the walkers, with the consequent exploitation of precious trees and plants.
    Not only can the environment of a country suffer from the sudden growth of tourism. The people as well rapidly feel its effects. Farmland makes way for hotels, roads and airports; the old way of life goes. The one-time farmer is now the servant of some multi-national organization; he is no longer his own master. Once it was his back that bore the pain; now it is his smile that is exploited. No doubt he wonders whether he wasn't happier in his village working his own land.
    Thankfully, the tourist industry is waking up to the responsibilities it has towards those countries that receive its customers. The protection of wildlife and the creation of national parks go hand in hand with tourist development and in fact obtain financial support from tourist companies. At the same time, tourists are being encouraged to respect not only the countryside they visit but also its people.
    The way tourism is handled in the next ten years will decide its fate and that of the countries we all want to visit. Their needs and problems are more important than those of the tourist companies. Increased understanding in planning world-wide tourism can preserve the market for these companies. If not, in a few years’ time the very things that attract tourists now may well have been destroyed.
    小题1:What does the author indicate in the last sentence of Paragraph 1?
    A．The Pacific Island is a paradise.B．The Pacific Island is worth visiting.
    C．The advertisement is not convincing.D．The advertisement is not impressive
    小题2:The example of Nepal is used to suggest _________.
    A．its natural resources are untouched
    B．its forests are exploited for farmland
    C．it develops well in health and education
    D．it suffers from the heavy flow of tourists.
    小题3:What can we learn about the farmers from Paragraph 4?
    A．They are happy to work their own lands.
    B．They have to please the tourists for a living.
    C．They have to struggle for their independence.
    D．They are proud of working in multi-national organizations.
    小题4:Which of the following determines the future of tourism?
    A．The number of touristsB．The improvement of services.
    C．The promotion of new products.D．The management of tourism
    小题5:The author’s attitude towards the development of the tourist industry is __________.
    A．optimisticB．doubtfulC．objectiveD．negative

    The life-long benefits of teaching children how to take care of their money make it well worth the effort. Children who are not taught these lessons pay the consequences for a life time. Some parents don’t teach children about money because they think they shouldn’t talk about money with children, don’t have the time, or think they don’t have enough money. Parents should take the time to teach children about money regardless of their income and should start when children are young.
    Most people have strong feelings and opinions about money, based on childhood experiences and the values and beliefs of their families. Most often, these experiences, values, and beliefs are different for each parent. Parents should talk about these feelings and opinions and establish an unchanging approach（方式） to teaching children about money. This is important for the healthy development of children.
    Here are some tips that parents can keep in mind as they begin teaching their children to manage money:
    ★ Guide and advise your children how to spend their money, rather than tell them what they can and cannot do.
    ★ Encourage and praise children rather than criticize their actions.
    ★ Allow children to learn by mistakes and by successes.
    ★ Be consistent（前后一致的） while taking children’s differences into consideration.
    ★ Include all family members in money management discussions, decision making, and activities that are suitable for their age. As children get older include them in discussions of limits and consequences.
    ★ Expect all family members to do some everyday chores based on their abilities without being paid.
    ★ Express your desire to have things you can’t afford. Children need to know that parents say “no” to themselves, too.
    小题1:It is _____ for parents to teach their children about money management in their childhood.
    A．easyB．uselessC．too earlyD．beneficial
    小题2:15-year-old Harry isn’t good at managing his money. His mother is advised to _____.
    A．explain to him how to manage his money better
    B．pay him more money to deal with his chores
    C．praise him for what he has done
    D．allow him to buy what he wants
    小题3:When parents discuss how to manage the family finances, they should _____.
    A．include their children in the discussion
    B．express their desire to have some valuable things
    C．pay more attention to their children’s differences
    D．try to meet their older children’s needs first

    Life on earth depends on water, and there is no substitute for it. The current assumption is that our basic needs for water—whether for drinking, agriculture, industry or the raising of fish—will always have to be met. Given this premise (前提), there are two basic routes we can go; more equal access to water or better engineering solutions.
    Look at the engineering solutions first. A lot of my research concentrates on what happens to wetlands when you build dams in river basins, particularly in Africa. The ecology of such areas is almost entirely driven by the seasonal changes of the river—the pulse of the water. And the fact is that if you build a dam, you generally spoil the downstream ecology. In the past, such problems have been hidden by a lack of information. But in the near future, governments will have no excuses for their ignorance.
    The engineers’ ability to control water flows has created new kinds of unpredictability, too. Dams in Africa have meant fewer fish, less grazing and less floodplain (洪泛区) agriculture, none of which were expected. And there average economic life is assumed to be thirty years. Dams don’t exist forever, but what will replace them is not clear.
    The challenge for the future is to find new means of controlling water. Although GM technology(转基因) will allow us to breed better dry-land crops, there is no market for companies to develop crops suitable for the micro-climates of the Sahel and elsewhere in Africa. Who is going to pay for research on locally appropriate crops in the Third World?
    小题1:What’s the main idea of this passage?
    A．The engineering solutions to water resource and their limitation.
    B．The challenge for the future.
    C．The basic means of controlling water.
    D．The challenge for developing crops.
    小题2:The author suggests that governments will have no excuse for their careless ignorance in the future because _____.
    A．The ecological destruction will be known to the public by researchers
    B．The ecological destruction will no longer be a problem in the future
    C．The future is an information age
    D．Governments will face greater challenge in the future
    小题3:Which of the following statements is NOT true for meeting our basic needs for water?
    A．Water resource should be used more reasonably.
    B．More dams should be built in river basins.
    C．More wetlands should be protected from destruction.
    D．More dry-land crops could be developed in Africa.
    小题4:The last sentence probably implies that _____.
    A．No one will invest in developing locally appropriate crops in Africa
    B．Researchers have no interest in developing dry-land crops
    C．Research on locally appropriate crops in the Third World may be profitable
    D．There is less water resource in the Third World

    What do butterfly wings have to do with computer screens? What do birds have to do with high speed trains?
    These may sound like strange things to put together. But scientists, inventors, and designers are doing just that. They are learning from nature to create new technology.
    The word biomimicry (仿生学) combines two words: biology and mimicry. So people using biomimicry try to use examples in nature to design new technology.
    Biomimicry is not a new idea. People have been studying nature for hundreds of years. Leonardo DaVinci used birds as models to invent his flying machine. And when the Wright Brothers made the first successful airplane, they also studied birds. In 998, Janine Benyus, a natural science writer and teacher, wrote a book about biomimicry. To develop her interest in the subject, Janine Benyus started the Biomimicry Institute.
    The Biomimicry Institute is a non-profit organization. It brings together scientists, designers, inventors and many other people. It offers classes to teach people biomimicry. It provides money for people to research and test new technologies. And it wants all people, from children to adults, to think about new ways to learn from nature.
    People involved with the Biomimicry Institute believe that biomimicry can help solve many of the world’s problems. Often, new technologies can harm nature, but this is not true for biomimicry. Let’s look at some examples.
    Butterflies have colorful wings because light shines off them in a special way. Scientists want to copy these same ways to make light shine off computers. They hope this will make for more colorful screens.
    Another example of biomimicry is the bullet train. It travels at speeds of over 250 kilometers per hour! But it had a problem: it made too much noise!
    Through the observation of birds, scientists thought about a kind of bird, the kingfisher(翠鸟). The kingfisher can dive into water without making any noise because of the shape of its beak(喙). Researchers thought that if they could design the front of the train like this beak, the train would be quieter. Well, it worked!
    小题1:The first paragraph is written to_____.
    A．start a discussion B．make a brief summary
    C．introduce the topic of the text D．test readers' knowledge on science
    小题2:Why did Janine Benyus set up the Biomimicry Institute?
    A．To honor the Wright Brothers.
    B．To show her recent inventions.
    C．To gather talented people for her research.
    D．To explore the link between nature and technologies.
    小题3:We know from the text that the Biomimicry Institute _____.
    A．earns a lot by giving classes on biomimicry B．tells people about their technologies
    C．gives free support to scientists D．teaches children about birds
    小题4:The author gives the two examples at the end of the text to show _______.
    A．biomimcry works harmoniously with natureB．the fast development of modern technology
    C．how biomimcry changes our lifeD．how nature inspires scientists
    小题5:What’s the main idea of the text?
    A．Biomimicry is widely used in the world.
    B．People copy nature to create new technologies.
    C．The Biomimicry Institute was set up for science.
    D．Birds play an important part in new technologies.
