    It’s a natural phenomenon. The minute you think you want to buy something new, you go online to read reviews about it. Not only is this done with shopping, it’s also done for movies to see , restaurants to go to and almost everything that is worth having an opinion on. The concept of writing down a review for all to see is something that has caused the birth of reviews sites. These are sites where people post reviews on other people, services, businesses, products and more.
    In some cases you have professionals do the review and in some other cases you will have the average person write it up. Review sites have a number of ways in which they can gain revenue for themselves in the form of advertising. In some cases, a business can pay his way through to a better listing spot. This does not mean that a positive review will be promoted where it is not warranted (担保).
    Review sites are largely a public forum and it is not necessary for people to reveal their identity. Since people are anonymous (匿名的) and sign up access is open to all, there are chances that reviews will be planted or will be negatively written simply to discredit a particular product or service.
    There is a lot of criticism towards these websites since they do nothing to control the kind of entries made or the source of these entries. On the other hand, there are professional review sites. These people are accountable for each of their reviews. Any doubts you have will be addressed personally by the one writing the review. Such sites work on much better principles allowing for a fair opinion.
    Considering they have a better reputation, they are aware of some the latest products that are released worldwide. This gives you a better chance of finding reviews of the latest product. While a review site will help you narrow down your choice, it by no means should influence your final decision. That is based entirely on the way you see fit.
    小题1:Nowadays, before buying something, people usually ________.
    A．ask the opinion of othersB．surf famous review sites.

    It is not a secret that these are turbulent times that put everyone on edge all the time and it makes people angry with their families, co-workers, friends and relatives, frustrated (沮丧的)and highly annoyed just for the noise of the neighbors or the music coming from the opposite house. Anger and negative energy have a strong influence on everyone’s life, even when they don’t realize it.
    Being in a calm state of mind is simply wonderful. Results of this can be seen when parents no longer shout at their children over any small thing and when one can keep him cool when bad things happen and doesn’t let the situation become worse by his negative influence.
    Also results can be seen on a larger scale. In 1993 a very interesting scientific experiment called The US Transcendental Meditation experiment was conducted in Washington. A company called TM got 4,000 calm and relaxed people to simply sit and meditate (冥想) in a central Washington convention center. The results of this experiment showed that during those particular 8 weeks, violent crimes, such as murder, rape, assaults, clearly decreased by as much as 23%.
    This is evident proof that meditation can change the state of mind, bring back peace of mind and collective meditation is contagious (蔓延的), just as anything done collectively is contagious. For example, a person has the urge to become aggressive (while in normal circumstances that person is very calm and normal), just because he is sitting at a stadium watching a football game and everyone around is shouting and is aggressive.
    Isn’t increasing the quality of life worth spending 20 minutes of time on meditation? Yes, very few people follow through with a meditation method that should be a joy to do. Many start and leave it after only a few sessions.
    So if collective meditation has proven that meditation works, that it calms people down and that it brings their levels of stress down, why not employ it in everyday life?
    小题1:The underlined word “turbulent” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “     ”.
    A．changelessB．disorderlyC．perfectD．expected
    小题2:According to Paragraph 3, the scientific experiment      .
    A．was to test whether meditation is useful
    B．was conducted throughout America
    C．asked the participants to do a lot of sports
    D．had no particular requirements on the participants
    小题3:Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
    A．Violent crimes are closely related to aggressive characters.
    B．People are sometimes easily annoyed by small things.
    C．Many people fail to carry out a meditation method.
    D．Meditation can cure people of many illnesses.

    Peter and his seven-year-old sister ,Kate , were at the same school. Not long after his tenth birthday Peter was entrusted to take her to school.
    It was only two stops down the road , but the way his parents kept going on about it , you might have thought Peter was taking Kate to the North Pole . He was given instructions the night before. When he woke up , he had to listen to them over and over again. He was to keep hold of Kate’s hand at all times , sit close to the front nearest the window , and tell the bus driver the name of his stop.
    Peter repeated all this back to his mother and set out for the bus stop with his sister. They held hands all the way. Actually he didn’t mind this but simply hoped that none of his friends would see him holding a girl’s hand. The bus came. They got on and sat close to the front. It was ridiculous sitting there holding hands and there were some boys from school there, so they let go of each other.
    Peter was feeling proud of himself. He could take care of his sister anywhere. If they were alone tighter on a mountain pass and came face to face with a pack of hungry wolves, he could know exactly what to do. Taking care and not to make sudden movement, he would move away with Kate until they had their backs to a large rock. That way the wolves would not be able to surround them.
    Then he takes from his pocket two important things—his hunting knife and a box of matches. He takes the knife from its sheath(鞘) and sets it down on the grass, ready in case the wolves attack. They’re coming close now. They’re so hungry and are watering and growling (咆哮). Kate is crying, but he cannot comfort her. He knows he has to concentrate on his plan. Right at their feet are some dry leaves and twigs. Quickly and skillfully, Peter gathers them into a small pile. The wolves are edging closer. He has to get this right. There’s only one match left in the box. He bends down, cups his hand and lights the match. There’s strong rush of wind. The flame flickers, but Peter holds it close to the pile and then first one leaf, then another, then the end of a twig catch fire, and soon the little pile is burning. He piles on more leaves and twigs and larger sticks. The wolves are backing off. Wild animals are terrified of fire. The flames are leaping higher and the wind is carrying the smoke right into their jaws. Now Peter takes holds of the hunting knife and …
    Ridiculous! A daydream like this could make him miss his stop if he wasn’t careful. The bus had come to a halt. The kids from his school were already getting off. Peter leaped to his feet and just managed to jump to the pavement as the bus was starting off again. It was more than fifty yards down the road when he realized he had forgotten something. Was it his backpack ? No. It was his sister. He had saved her from the wolves and left her sitting there. For a moment, he couldn’t move. He stood watching the bus pull away up the road. “Come back,” he murmured, “Come back.”
    小题1:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
    A．Kate didn’t know their destination at all.

    B．Peter was told instructions twice

    D．Peter managed to avoid meeting his friends
    小题3:Which of the following shows the right order of Peter fighting against the wolves?

    c. light the leaves and twigs
    d. move carefully with back to a rock
    e. attack wolves with knife
    f. strike a match
    g. pile more leaves and sticks
    A．d-b-f-c-a-e-gB．d-b-a-f-c-g-eC．B-f-a-g-c-e-dD．A-g-b-c-f-e-d

    Consumer electronics once again topped the list of the most wanted gifts this holiday season.
    “Seventy-six percent of consumers who plan to buy holiday gifts say that they will spend money or buy at least one technology product; definitely a solid vote of confidence for technology.”
    Steve Koenig is with the Consumer Electronics Association. He says the group’s latest research also shows that Americans this year are spending more on technology products. “Here in 2012, $252 on average——the technology spend for consumers this year.”
    From tablet computers to smart phones, American shoppers have been lining up to get the newest and coolest electronic devices on the market. There are more choices today than ever before. "It's kind of hard to make a decision."
    Tablet computers are one of the best-selling products this year. Brian Tong is Senior Editor of CNET.com. The website reports on tech news and examines the latest electronic products. He says the Apple iPad Mini is one of the most popular tablets. Its starting price is $329. One of Apple’s biggest competitors is the Google Nexus 7. It starts at $199.
    “Its hardware is more powerful than what’s in the iPad Mini, but also it offers you a lot of things like maps that work better than Apple’s maps.
    But Brian Tong says there is one reason why people may like the iPad Mini more than the Nexus 7. “If you just want to read books and surf the Internet, you don’t really need to get an iPad Mini, but if you want the largest robust group of apps (应用软件) that’s where the iPad and Apple’s ecosystem shines the most.”
    Elman Chacon is with the electronics store Best Buy. He says another hot product this season is smart cameras. They connect to the Internet through WiFi. This makes it easy for users to email or upload photographs directly from the camera.
    “You can literally take a picture and upload it into your Facebook in a matter of seconds. These things are pretty cool because they do a lot of things.”
    Streaming media boxes also connect to the Internet. People are able to watch web content such as movies and YouTube videos on their televisions. Another popular item is wireless speaker systems. The newest ones work with any device that has Bluetooth technology, including smart phones, laptops and tablets.
    小题1:What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 3?
    A．Every technology product costs an average of $252.
    B．Consumers are spending $252 more on technology products than last year.
    C．Consumers should spend $252 on their technology products.
    D．It is estimated that $252 on average might be spent on electronics by consumers in 2012.
    小题2:According to Brian Tong, why may people prefer the iPad Mini to the Google Nexus 7?
    A．Because it is cheaper.
    B．Because it has more functions.
    C．Because you can read books and surf the Internet with it.
    D．Because it offers you a lot of things like maps that work better than Apple’s maps.
    小题3:What does “Its hardware” in Paragraph 6 refer to?
    A．The hardware of tablet computers.
    B．The hardware of the Apple iPad.
    C．The hardware of the Google Nexus 7.
    D．The hardware of the iPad Mini.
    小题4:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
    A．People will spend most of their money on electronics.
    B．Photos can be uploaded from the camera when connected to a computer.
    C．A streaming media box is a box which can contain CDs.
    D．Most people would like to buy electronics as gifts.
    小题5:Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?
    A．Electronics: People’s Most Favorite Gifts this year

    We’re surrounded by chemistry in everyday life. Sometimes it is easy to see, like when your science teacher does a big experiment in class. At other times, it can be pretty hard to see everyday chemistry at work, but nearly everything you touch or use has some element of chemistry in it.
    Something as simple as toothpaste contains at least three chemicals, if not more. It is the mixture of them and its chemical reaction that keeps your teeth clean. Other things you use every day are created by chemistry, such as hair products, shampoo and soap. Adding detergent (洗涤剂) to water involves chemistry. Without chemistry, we would never have known that we need soap to get the oil out of clothes or skin. Chemistry not only helps us make products for use, but it also helps us understand the world around us. Chemistry helps us understand what the ozone layer (臭氧层) is and how it protects us. Chemistry also gives us sunscreen to protect us from the sun. Thanks to chemistry, we know bleach (漂白剂) can’t be mixed with vinegar(醋), because it can produce poisonous gas.Without chemistry, we wouldn’t have fireworks displays on important days.
    Chemistry plays a big role in food preparation. Cooking food causes it to go through a chemical change. That is why cooked food often tastes different from raw food. Baking is a great example of chemistry. Too much or too little of any ingredient（成分，尤指烹饪） makes a difference to the result of baking, for example, the dough (面团) won’t rise or the cake will be flat.
    Chemistry isn’t something that just lives in a lab; it’s something that you meet hundreds of times every day. Knowing how chemistry works will give you a greater understanding of the science behind some of the simplest-looking things.
    小题1:What’s the main idea of Paragraph 1?
    A．Chemistry is easy to see around us.
    B．Sometimes chemistry is hard to see around us.
    C．How a science teacher does a big experiment.
    D．Few things in everyday life contain chemistry.
    小题2:The following actions are about chemistry EXCEPT _____.
    A．cleaning teeth with toothpaste
    B．washing hair with hair products
    C．using soap to get the oil out of clothes
    D．washing your face with water
    小题3:The underlined word “poisonous” in Paragraph 3 means _____.
    A．harmful B．healthy C．fresh D．pleasant
    小题4:Which one is TRUE according to Paragraph 4?
    A．One can’t find chemistry when cooking food.
    B．Chemistry plays an important part in food mak-ing.
    C．That dough rises is nothing to do with chemistry.
    D．A flat cake is the result of too many ingredients.
    小题5:Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
    A．Chemistry Around the House
    B．Chemistry in Science
    C．Chemistry for Dinner

    As for visiting Walt Disney World. People usually have trouble in arranging. The following will give you some practical suggestions on paying a valuable visit to the famous park.
    When to go?
    While it’s always busy, Disney World is slightly slower between mid-January and March. It’s summer when the visitors , combined with the heat and humidity(潮湿)， are crowded. Your best choice is either early in the morning or late in the day--- often you can enjoy more rides in the first or last two hours of the day than you can the entire rest of the day combined.
    Where to stay?
    The question: to stay on Disney World Resort property or not. Disney World offers three resort pricing: Deluxe(豪华的), Moderate, and Value, with good facilities and in-hotel attractions. That said, they all offer “Extra Magic Hours”(early access to the theme parks), guaranteed entry when the parks are over-crowded, and frequent shuttle service to the many attractions. Off-property hotels will have shuttle transfers, but often at less regular intervals(间歇)，wasting more time in transport. You’ll also need a rental car, which adds to the expense, making up for saving in the hotel rate. The “Magic Your Way Package” is a good value if you have a large family.
    What to do?
    Make use of the “Fast Pass” , which , for no extra cost, allow you to insert your entrance ticket into a particular machine at the attraction and receive a schedule ride time a little later on. For example, use your Fast Pass ticket at a ride just before getting lunch. Once you’re done eating, you can return to the ride and jump right on during the busiest time of day. At the Animal Kingdom, the animals are most active either early or late in the day, so plan accordingly. Thankfully this is fit for the least busy times of day in the park. Study the map of the park the night before to plan your visit. You’ll save time by knowing where things are and where you’re headed.
    小题1:Visitors who use Fast Pass tickets ________ 
    A．can get discounts on tickets
    B．will have a well-planned ride time
    C．will often be checked at the exit
    D．have to pay more for their tickets
    小题2:If you have referred to the map of the park, you ________ 
    A．are sure to save time
    B．will get the lowest-priced tickets
    C．can learn the park’s location
    D．may have your lost tickets replaced
    小题3:The underlined word “this” in the text probably refers to the fact that ________ 
    A．there are more visitors at that time
    B．animals are active at that time
    C．the Animal Kingdom attracts fewer visitors
    D．Fast Pass benefits visitors a lot
    小题4:It can be learned from Part 2 that _________
    A．every visitor will have a rental car for free
    B．all the shuttle transfers are convenient for visitors.
    C．three typed of resort pricing are offered by Disney World
    D．Young couples are advised to take the Magic Your Way Package

    Have you ever thought of taking a train and having an adventure(奇遇)？Riding the train can be a real adventure. That is how I feel every time I take Amtrak. I often take a four－hour trip to visit my children. Every time I take this trip I never know what will happen.
    Last week when I was on the train and over an hour into the train ride，there was a man sitting by himself in the back of the train carrying on a mobile phone conversation－in another language. It was loud and disturbed most of the people on the train. I think it was annoying.
    Fortunately I sat next to a wonderful old lady who was taking a two－day trip by train. She said her two daughters were distraught at the thought of her driving for three days to reach her home，although she had no trouble driving. The train ride was the only choice for her. She loved to look out of the window and watch the world go by on the train.
    She was fun to talk to and asked me when my children started being parents. That is a very good question. Both of us are old and have children. She asked that same question from time to time.
    There are always many people on the train from all walks of life，different countries，and many  languages. Riding the train is a great way to increase your knowledge and take in all kinds of cultures. If you get hungry，you can buy food in the food car at any time. If you need to use the restroom there is always one available.
    It sure beats driving the car，which has to stop for food and restrooms. And it is better than taking the bus.
    小题1:According to the passage，the purpose of the author’s train ride was    .
    A．to do businessB．to see her children
    C．to visit places of interestD．to see her old friends
    小题2:Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “distraught” in Paragraph 3?
    A．Disappointed.B．Satisfied.C．Worried.D．Pleased.
    小题3:Which of the following is TRUE about the old lady sitting next to the author?
    A．She is too old to drive now.
    B．She does not like to take trains.
    C．Although she is old，she has a good memory.
