Nowadays, people in many big cities are complaining about the heavy traffic. It has seriously influenced people’s daily life and economic development. To solve the problem, I’d like to put forward some pieces of advice.For one thing, more streets and roads should be built. In this way, we can speed up the flow of buses and cars. For another, the number of bikes and cars can be limited, which can decrease the traffic flow. But the most important thing is that the number of private cars should be put under control. Meanwhile, buses should have their own special routes which cannot be used by other vehicles. Besides, underground train and city train should be developed quickly.I do hope my suggestions will be taken.Yours,Li Hua。

AIf you go to Ethiopia, you’ll find a strange palm-like structure, which is called WarkaWater. It gathers water from fog and condensation（水珠）and is invented by an Italian firm.When Italian designer Arturo Vittori and Swiss architect Andreas Vogler first visited Ethiopia in 2012, they were shocked to see women and children forced to walk miles to access what, for them, had always been within easy reach, water.Only 34 percent of Ethiopians have access to a reliable water supply. Some travel for up to six hours a day to fetch some or, even worse, has to use pond water polluted by human waste, subject to the spread of disease.Worldwide, about 768 million people—two and a half times the U.S. population—don’t have access to safe drinking water. So just imagine if we could just pull water out of thin air? That’s what Vittori and Vogler asked once they saw the severe problem and promised to take action. Their firm, Architecture and Vision, has since come up with WarkaWater, a grand palm-like structure that may look like something you’d see in a modern art museum, but it’s been designed to harvest water from the air.WarkaWater, which is named after an Ethiopian fig tree, is composed of a 30-foot bamboo frame containing a fog-harvesting nylon net that can catch water easily, can be easily lowered for repairs and allow communities to measure the water level. Collecting water through condensation is hardly a new technique, but the creators of WarkaWater say their tree-inspired design is more effective, maximizing surface and perfecting every angle to produce up to 26 gallons of drinkable water a day—enough for a family of seven.Western organizations have been working to provide clean water access in Africa for decades, so WarkaWater joins a very long list of earlier attempts. So far, high-tech solutions, like the once promising Playpump, have failed, mostly due to high costs and maintenance issues.This is where WarkaWater stands apart—a lower-tech solution that is easy to repair and far more affordable than digging wells in the rocky Ethiopian plateau.1. What does the underlined phrase “subject to” in the third paragraph most pro bablymean?A. Owing toB. Opposite toC. Sensitive toD. Giving rise to2. WarkaWater is designed mainly to ______.A. gather clean water efficientlyB. reduce water supply costsC. simplify maintenanceD. preserve water supplies3. According to Paragraph 6, what caused Playpump to fail?A. Lack of advanced technologyB. Unsuccessful designsC. Lack of money and maintenance issuesD. Unreasonable structuresBEDINBURGH, Scotland (AP) —they arrived before polling stations even opened, dressed for the school day in striped ties and blazers, dress slacks and tartan skirts, book bags over their shoulders —and, for the first time in British history, ballot (选票) cards in hands on September 18.Scotland’s experiment of allowing more than 109,000 Scottish teenagers aged 16to 17 took part in the Scottish independence referendum (公民投票), in which Scotland finally decided not to become independent.The age group only made up a small part of the 4.29 million total voters, but they have “demonstrated how the youngest voters can be some of the most enthusiasticin a mature democracy”, commented The Associated Press. Casting their ballots, they were “proud and passionate” to help their nation decide whether to break away from the UK after 307 years in union.At age 16, Scottish residents are allowed to join the military, get married, and work. Eighteen is the legal dri nking age, as well as the UK’s voting age. But in 2013, Scottish law was changed to allow 16- and 17-year-olds in Scotland to vote in the referendum. The government pushed for the change because “younger voters are more likely to vote with their hearts, not their heads—and embrace fundamental change by voting for the pro-independence Yes Scotland campaign”, NBC News said.But when the decision was handed down, some worried that high school students might not be as informed as adult voters. However, many experts said that assumption was wrong.Professor Jan Eichhorn of the University of Edinburgh insisted that Scottish teenagers were as likely to read newspaper articles and campaign materials as their parents. They would simply get these resources through social media.“There’s no evidence to suggest that they’re less capable than adults of voting, from a research point of view,” Eichhorn told NPR.Scotland’s move to let younger teenagers vote in the referendum has led to a discussion about whether the voting age ought to be lowered to 16, both in the UK and the US.“By 16, most people have about as stable an ideology (思想意识) as they are goingto get,” Professor Jason Brennan of Georgetown University wrote for CNN, arguing that the US should also think about allowing younger US citizens to vote.4. The Scottish independence referendum was held on Sept. 18 ______.A. to encourage youngsters to be concerned with politicsB. to lower the minimum voting age to 16 for the referendumC. to decide whether Scotland would become independent from the UKD. to elect who would be the new leader of Scotland5. According to the passage, we can learn ______.A. Scotland gained its independence from the UK eventually.B. It is possible for the USA to lower the voting age to 16 in the future.C. All the people in Scotland thought highly of the government’s decision to lower the voting age to 16.D. Scottish teenagers aged 16 are allowed to join the military, get married, work and drink alcohol now.6. What do es the underlined word “embrace” (in para.4) probably mean?A. Admit toB. Object toC. Know aboutD. Approve of7. What is Jan Eichhorn’s opinion of the Scottish teenagers aged 16 to 17?A. They are as informed and capable as adults of voting.B. They make no difference to the voting result.C. They are too enthusiastic to make informed decisions.D. They are unwilling to be involved in the decision of the country’s future.CNowadays, girls are so mean to each other. Many girls are becoming the victims of the harmful behaviors of the female bully.Emma Tracey was a popular 17-year-old and a well-liked athlete who had already won a soccer scholarship to college. But none of that stopped Emma from becoming the target of online girl on girl bullying(欺凌). Emma began to receive hundreds of online unpleasant comments via the latest social networking site called .In March 2011, Emma committed suicide and although all agreed that the online bother was not the single factor that led to E mma’ death, everyone did agree that it was a contributory factor.Unfortunately, Emma’ story is not unique. A 2010 study conducted by the Cyberbullying Research Center states: “Cyberbullying victims were almost twice as likely to have attempted suicide compared to youth who had not experienced cyberbullying. Girls are 57% more likely to be victims of aggressive cyberbullying and 92% more likely to be the criminals.”Suicide is obviously the extreme and no one can minimize the tragedy of it. However, there are other damages that occur as a result of aggressive bullying. It can damage self-confidence and lead to feelings of worthlessness, and also increase social isolation and make victims become withdrawn, depressed, anxious, and unsafe. So what causes girls to be so unkind towards each other?A term known as relational aggression may best describe the cause of girl on girl bullying. It starts with a clique (派系) usually led by a girl with a high level of social status and popularity. In order not to lose her position, she will controlgirls within the clique and take action if she feels threatened. At the leader’s directive the girls within the clique will spread rumors and lies and annoy othergirls continuously.The bullying starts at school but will quickly go to cyberbullying due to anonymity(匿名) and lack of punishment. Girls will easily do so in the anonymity of the Internet. Finally the cause will be summarized as the unsafety and jealousy of one girl andthe twisted loyalty of members within her clique. Underneath the confident exterior(外表) of a female bully lie desperate unsafety.8. The example of Emma Tracey is given to show .A. popular youth are not easy to become the target of bullyingB. today’s youth don’t like to study any moreC. suicide is a serious problem among youthD. cyberbullying is quite common among teenagers9.

While many will be living longer, they will be doing so with age-related health issues and disease. Of special concern, the number of people living with dementia（痴呆）worldwide is set to trebleby 2050. Alzheimer’s Disease International reports that 44 million people live withthe disease now but that figure will increase to 135 million by 2050. With this added pressure to health systems, technology is the critical factor to success.In Oslo, Norway, a retired engineer, Mr. Helge Farsund cares for his wife, Kari. Kari, who had been an intensive-care nurse who served with the Red Cross in Rwanda,was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s three years ago. Looking to live as normal a lifeas possible as Kari’s condition progressed, they are participating in a pilot projectstu dying how a smart home powered by sensors enables people with Alzheimer’s Diseaseto stay in their home.The system is created by Abilia. At the center of the system is an iPad-likedevice. The screen has Skype, which allows carers to regularly check in with patients．Some l,000 people now have the system installed in their homes, and 25 of them, including the Farsunds, are testing the latest version, which combines the screen with wirelessly connected sensors around the house to detect motion. If a door is opened or left open, or if the stove is left on, the system alerts patients and caretakers of danger. The planner also provides spoken reminders about daily tasks, such as when they need to take medicine and events like birthdays as well as enabling caretakers and family members to check in remotely via Skype.“With this kind of system, it allows people to take care of themselves, whichis the most important thing,” says vice president Oystein Johnsen. For him, any moveto improve city life needs to b egin with people. “Smart cities are coming and they need to start with individuals in their own home,” he says. “It also saves the government money. In Norway it cost one million Norwegian krone (￡100,000) per yearto have someone in a home, while this system costs 15,000. That is a lot of moneyto save.”12.
