    The Internet is full of headlines that grab your attention with buzzwords (流行词). But often when we click through, we find the content hardly delivers and it wastes our time. We close the page, feeling we've been cheated. These types of headlines are called "click bait".

    A headline on Businesslnsider.com reads: "This phrase will make you seem more polite". First, when you click through, you find another headline: "Four words to seem more polite." Then, on reading the article, you find it's actually an essay about sympathy. And what are the four words? They're "Wow, that sounds hard." On some video websites, you might encounter headlines such as "Here's what happens when six puppies visited a campus". Turns out it's just some uninteresting dog footage (镜头).

    Nowadays, with the popularity of social media, many news outlets tweet (推送) click bait links to their stories. These tweets take advantage of the curiosity gap or attempt to draw the reader into a story using a question in the headline. These click bait headlines are so annoying that someone is attempting to save people time by exposing news outlet click bait through social media. The Twitter account @SavedYouAClick, run by Jake Beckman, is one such example.

    Beckman's method is to grab tweets linking to a story and retweet them with a click-saving comment. For example, CNET tweeted "So iOS 8 appears to be jailbreakable but...", with a link to its coverage of Apple's product announcements. Beckman retweeted it with this comment attached: "... it hasn't been jailbroken yet."

    Since founding the account, Beckman's Twitter experiment has brought him more than 131,000 followers. Beckman said that @SavedYouAClick is…"just my way of trying to help the Internet be less terrible." Asked about his goal, he said, "I'd love to see publishers think about the experience of their readers first. I think there's an enormous opportunity for publishers to provide readers with informative updates that include links so you can click through and read more.

    1.The article on Businesslnsider.com turns out to be ________.

    A. useful suggestions on politeness

    B. an essay about another topic

    C. an article hard to understand

    D. a link to a video website

    2.Why are readers often cheated by tricky headlines?

    A. Social media has become more popular.

    B. Readers have questions to be solved.

    C. Such headlines are fairly attractive.

    D. There're always stories behind them.

    3.Beckman attached his comment to CNET's tweet to ________.

    A. criticize CNET

    B. save readers' time

    C. advertise apple's new product

    D. tell readers something about iOS 8

    4.In the last paragraph, Beckman appeals that ________.

    A. publishers be more responsible for the link

    B. readers think about their needs before reading

    C. publishers provide more information for readers

    D. people work together to make the Internet less terrible

    阅读下面短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

    It was 7:30 in the morning. As usual I was on the subway to school. It was so crowded with people that it felt like the air conditioner wasn't working. I was standing there looking around. Then, I saw an old lady get on the train with a 7-year-old child who seemed to be her grandson.

    A warm-hearted gentleman generously offered his seat to the old lady. Instead of sitting down herself, however, the old lady called her grandson over and told him to sit.

    Sooner or later, children mature and step into the complicated world. Love is necessary in the early development of children, yet, to the disappointment of many, too much love definitely prevents children from learning the rules of the real world. Teaching the child about the rules of society within the family helps the child to achieve success later. By giving up seats to their children, grandparents may destroy kids' best chance for character development.

    [写作内容]

    1. 以约30个词概括上文的主要内容。

    2. 以约120个词谈谈你对长辈溺爱孩子的看法，内容包括：

    (1)描述长辈溺爱孩子的表现。(2)溺爱孩子的后果。(3)你对长辈溺爱孩子的看法。

    [写作要求]

    When treating some friends to dinner, we Chinese often say, “The dishes are not good. Please forgive me.” In fact, it is a Chinese way of 1.__ (be) modest. __2.__ he really means is that all the dishes here are really wonderful! What he really hopes is compliment from the guests! But __3.__ English would not understand it at all! Now that it is not very good, why should you present the dishes in front of us?

    This morning on my way to school I was deep moved by what I saw outside a bank. An old man was counting his money in the front of the bank. Suddenly a young man came running and knocked him down. To make things bad, his money was flying in all direction. In no time the people around rush to pick the money up while the old man stood there, not know what to do. Surprisingly, everyone gave back the money they had just picked up. The old man counted the money again and found that not a single bill was missed. To my great joy, there are now a lot nice people in your life. It’s true what honesty is more important than money!

    For the Travel section, writers and editors selected special items to profile from a dozen cities.

    Brussels:Chocolate

    Nearly half the chocolate consumed in the world is eaten in Europe, and Belgium—with average consumption of 14.99 pounds per person a year—certainly covers its fair share. While Brussels, the country’s capital, is home to hundreds of chocolate makers, what makes a visit necessary is the rich heritage of traditional chocolate makers.

    Budapest: Paprika (红辣椒)

    The job of preparing Hungarian paprika was once considered too dangerous for mothers to do. A woman who touched her children upon returning from work risked burning them, so only the elderly and unmarried were allowed the delicate task of separating the skin from the flesh. But by the early 20th century, sweeter varieties and a machine turned paprika into a common feature of all Hungarian cuisine.

    Lisbon: Tiles (瓷砖)

    Is there a bluer Country than Portugal? The blue sky and Atlantic Ocean embrace the land. The blue moods of Fado, the dark folk music, form the national soundtrack. And all across Portugal, the typically blue designs of azulejos—ceramic tiles—are spread across churches, castles, palaces, university halls, parks... The result is a beautiful land of Christian saints, Portuguese kings, historical glories, aristocrats at leisure, seascapes and so on.

    Madrid: Guitars

    Walking into one of Madrid’s storied guitar makers’ workshops can feel like stepping into the past. Curly wood shavings, from the palest pine to ebony, fall onto the floor as artisans turn some humble wood into works of art. It’s painstaking work—all done by hand—with classical guitar models and the methods of making them changing little over the last century.

    1.What does the job of preparing Hungarian paprika suggest?

    A. The popularity of Hungarian peppers.

    B. The difficulty of processing peppers.

    C. The unique tradition in Budapest.

    D. The hot level of Hungarian peppers.

    2.Which city can be a splendid setting for a film?

    A. Brussels.B. BudapestC. LisbonD. Madrid.

    3.What’s the similarity of the four items?

    A. They’re all treasures of a city.

    B. They all date back to several centuries.

    C. Their production processes are all painstaking.

    D. They all win popularity in most European countries.
