There is arestaurant in my Maine town that has done little to update itself over the past80 years. This is part of its charm, as is the wooden phone booth that sitsneglected in the age of the cellphone. Ah, the phone booth. We need it now morethan ever.
For me it symbolizesthat phone calls were once private affairs, even if the information beingshared was not sensitive in any way. It was simply assumed that a phonecenversation was meant for two people, and two people only.
Growing up in the1960s, we had only phone in the house. As a kid, I didn’t get, or make manycalls because all my friends five within earshot and I could just yell out thewindow if I wanted their attention. I do, however, remember answering thephone, asking for the identity of the caller, and then handing the phone to mymom, She’d take it, say “Hello, Mrs… one moment please,” and then as she placedher hand over the receiver, she turned to me, and directed, “This is for me.Why don’t you go outside and play?”
Flash forward towhat cellphones have done to our life. Within the space of a few years,overhearing private conversations seems to be normal. Not long ago I wassitting in Boston’s South Station, near a man who was on his cellphone, waitingfor my train.
The following iswhat the man had to say, “Yes, that’s right. The red and yellow roses.” Then hecontinued to recite his card number arid expiration date (有效期). I stared atthe fellow. He glanced at me and asked, “What?” My response was immediate: Irecited his card number back to him, along with the expiration date.
There is nolonger a sense of personal borders or limits. The cellphone has become amegaphone (扩音器), and I have been privy (私下知情) to details of people’slives that I would rather not know. Maybe phone booths could serve as cellphoneharbors today.
24. What feature does the restaurant in Maine town have?
A. It is very popular B.It is old-fashioned
C. It will close down D.It has been neglected
21. As a kid, the author
A. had a few friends
B. often called his friends
C. was not allowed to answer the phone
D. learned that phone conversations are private
26. What is the author’s attitude towards cellphone?
A. Critical B.Tolerate C.Optimistic D.Approving
27. What did the author do in Boston’s South Station?
A. He talked to an old friend.
B. He bought some colorful roses.
C. He overheard a man’s personal information.
D. He helped a stranger who was making a call.
C
My high schoolpays lots of attention to sports. Sports are well-celebrated. Arts and sciencesare simply tolerated. Football players are princes. Artists are stepchildren.The ice hocky team walks on water. /Musicians just walk.
I am aware thatthe single greatest factor in preventing heart disease is regular and activeexercise, and that gets my vote. In junior high school I played baseball andloved it. What I am against is unfair allocation of community resources tosports that benefit one select group of students over another. I believe school-shouldbe even-handed when slicing the pie.
Our school will spend& 26,000 this winter alone to pay for ice time for the hocky team. That’sbefore even a dollar is spent on coaches, insurance, transportation, andequipment. On the other hand, the drama department doesn’t even have a good setof body microphones.
The athleticprogram at out school has become almost a religion. Many students are short ofsleep because they have to catch a 6:20 a.m. school bus. The school day muststart that early so athletes who travel around our town for away games (客场比赛) limit theirmissed classes. The result of this catering to sports is sleepy students anddiscouraged academic students.
Meanwhile, asmore and more master teachers retire, our school cannot find experiencedreplacements — the cost of buying a home here is unaffordable for mostteachers. Last year, an advertised math position drew only a single applicant.Yet instead of following the example of the best private schools by buildingteacher housing on school land, our school is ready to develop the last, prizedacres of school land to expand the athletic fields even further.
I am notsuggesting cutting down or even getting rid of any sports programs. I am simplystating that there’s no need to expand an already large athletic department. Ithink our school should take the advice of all wrestling coaches: Time to goon a little diet.
28. How does Paragraph 1 mainly develop?
A. By making comparisons B. By providingexamples.
C. By analyzing reasons. D. Byexplaining terms.
29. Why does the school day start early?
A. To avoid rush hour.
B. To follow the tradition.
C. To let the students have more classes.
D. To make the athletes miss fewer classes.
30. How can the author’s school attract replacementteachers?
A. By providing accommodation for teachers.
B. By improving the school environment.
C. By increasing the school’s reputation.
D. By offering teachers high salaries.
31. What does the author mean by saying “Time to go ona little diet” in the last paragraph?
A. Coaches need to be more careful about athletes’diet.
B. The school should give fewer resources toathletics.
C. Athletes should limit the amount of food they eat.
D. The athletic department needs to be downsized.
D
The earth haschanged, over and over again, throughout the course of its history, In order tosurvive in changing environments, species must often go through a process ofadaptation. Adaptation refers to genetic change that enables an organism (生物体) such as ananimal or plant to survive in its environment. If the organisms of a speciescannot change along with the area in which they live, they risk dying out. Recenthistory has given us an important example of how organisms are able to surviveonce their environments change.
Light graypeppered moths (胡椒蛾) and dark-colored peppered moths lived in the countrysidebetween the cities of Manchester and London in England, Many years before the19th century, more of the light gray peppered moths had been able to survive intheir environment mostly because of their color. Birds couldn’t see thelight-colored moths on the trees because the color of the moths was similar tothe color of the trees.
In the early 19thcentury, though, England began the first years of its Industrial Revolution.Many areas became occupied by a growing number of factories. Many of thesefactories needed coal to provide energy for their machines. When coal bums, itgives off a lot of dark-colored smokes. The trees began to blacken because ofall the smoke in the air from the factories. This made the light gray pepperedmoths much more vulnerable. Birds could see them on the trees moredearly and easily hunt them down.
Sometime in thenext hundred years, scientists began to notice a huge change in the mothpopulation living in and between the cities of Manchester and London. Most ofthe peppered moths were of the dark-colored kind! What caused this change wasthe fact that birds had eaten a lot of the light gray peppered moths becausethe moths could be seen clearly on the darkened trees. The dark- coloredpeppered moths in the area survived much more easily and mated with otherdark-colored peppered moths until most of the population of peppered mothsbecame dark-colored.
32. If a species can’t adapt to the changingenvironment, they are likely to .
A. be driven out of their habitat. B. becomeextinct
C. move to another environment D. go through genetic changes
33. What conclusion can be drawn from the change intwo kinds of moths?
A. There were previously no dark-colored pepperedmoths.
B. The light-colored peppered moths moved to a newenvironment.
C. The color change had nothing to do with the changein their environment.
D. Dark coloring was better for the peppered moths,survival in the 19th century.
34. What does the underlined word “vulnerable”probably mean?
A. Quick to change B.Open to attack C. Easilydefended D. In a strongposition
35. What does the author mainly describe in thepassage?
A. How the Industrial Revolution improved the lives ofworkers.
B. How the earth changed throughout the course of itshistory.
C. How human influence organisms through artificialselection.
D. How natural selection changed the population ofpeppered moths.

“Click!” That’sthe sound of safety. That’s the sound of survival. That’s the sound of 61 seat belt locking in place. Seat belts savelives and that’s a fact. That’s I don’t drive anywhere until mine is on tight.Choosing to wear your seat belt is like choosing between life and (die). When you are driving in a car, you maybe going 100 kilometers per hour or (fast). Then somebody ahead of youputs on his or her brakes. You don’t have time to stop. You crash into the carin front of you. Your car was going 100 kilometers per hour. Now it has (sudden) stopped. Your body, however,is still going 100 kilometers per hour. What’s going to stop your body?
Some people thinkthat seat belts are (comfort). To them, I say, what’s more terrible? Wearing aseat belt or flying through a car windshield? Let’s just take a close look your choices. If you are not wearing your seatbelt, you can slide in and out of your seat easily. That sounds like a lot offun. But you are also more likely to die or suffer serious (injure).
Wearing a seatbelt does not make you completely safe. You can still get hurt or (kill) while wearing your seat belt.But wearing them (prove) tobe safer than without them. So why not take the safer way?
