Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.ABicycle SafetyOperation Always ride your bike in a safe, controlled manner on campus(校园). Obey rules and regulations. Watch out for walkers and other bicyclists, and always use your lights in dark conditions.Theft Prevention Always securely lock your bicycle to a bicycle rack---even if you are only away for a minute. Register your bike with the University Department of Public Safety. It’s fast, easy, and free. Registr ation permanently records your serial number, which is useful in the possible recovery of the bike stolen.EquipmentBrakes Make sure that they are in good working order and adjusted properly.Helmet A necessity, make sure your helmet meets current safety standards and fit properly.Lights Always have a front headlight---visible at least 500 feet in front of the bike. A taillight is a good idea.Rules of the RoadRiding on Campus As a bicycle rider, you have a responsibility to ride only on streets and posted bicycle paths. Riding on sidewalks or other walkways can lead to a fine.The speed limit for bicycles on campus is 15mph, unless otherwise posted. Always give the right of ways to walkers. If you are involved in an accident, you arerequired to offer appropriate aid, call the Department of Public Safety and remain at the scene until the officer lets you go.Bicycle Parking Only park in areas reserved for bikes. Trees, handrails, hallways, and sign posts are not for bicycle parking, and parking in such posts can result in a fine. If Things Go WrongIf you break the rules, you will be fined. Besides violating rules while riding bicycles on campus, you could be fined for:No bicycle registration---------------------------------------------------$25Bicycle parking banned--------------------------------------------------$30Blocking path with bicycle ---------------------------------------------$40Violation of bicycle equipment requirement -------------------------$3556.

Directions for bicycle tour on campus.C. Regulations of bicycle race on campus.D. Rules for riding motor vehicles on camps.BWhen you think about math, you p robably don’t think about breaking the law, solving mysteries or finding criminals. But a mathematician in Maryland does, and he has come up with mathematical tools to help police find criminals.People who solve crimes look for patterns that might reveal (揭示) the identity of the criminal. It’s long been believed, for example, that c riminals will break the law closer to where they live, simply because it’s easier to get around in their own neighborhood. If police see a pattern of robberies in a certain area, they may look for a suspect who lives near the crime scenes. So, the farther away from the area a crime takes place, the less likely it is that the same criminal did it.But Mike O’Leary, a mathematic ian at Towson University in Maryland, says that this k ind of approach may be too simple. He says that police may get better clues to the location of a criminal’s home base by combining these patterns with a city’s layout (布局) and historical crime records.The records of past crimes contain geographical information and can reveal easy targets —that is, the kind of stores that might be less difficult to rob. Because these stores are along roads, the locations of past crimes contain information about where major streets and intersections are. O’Leary is writing a new computer program that will quickly provide this kind of information for a given city. His program also includes information about the people who live in the city, and information about how a criminal’s patterns change with age. It’s been shown, for e xample, that the younger the criminal, the closer to home the crime.Other computer programmers have worked on similar software, but O’Leary’s uses more math. The mathematician plans to make his computer program available, free of charge, to police departments around the country.The program is just one way to use math to fight crime. O’Leary says that criminology — the study of crime and criminals —contains a lot of good math problems. “I feel like I’m in a gold mine and I’m the only one who knows what go ld looks like,”he says. “It’s a lot of fun.”61. To find criminals, police usually _________.A. check who are on the crime sceneB. seek help from local peopleC. depend on new mathematical toolsD. focus on where crimes take place62. O’Leary is writing a computer program that _________.A. uses math to increase the speed of calculationB. tells the identity of a criminal in a certain areaC. provides the crime records of a given cityD. shows changes in criminals’ patterns63. By “I’m the only one who knows what gold looks like”, O’Leary means that he _________.A. is better at finding gold than othersB. is the only one who uses math to make moneyC. knows best how to use math to help solve crimesD. has more knowledge of gold than other mathematicians64. What do you know about O’Leary according to the passage?A. He is a man full of impractical imagination.B. He is a man full of self-confidence.C. He is a man who is talkative but lazy.D. He is a man who doesn’t like mathematics.65. What is the main idea of the text?A. Math could help police find criminals.B. Criminals live near where crimes occur.C. Crime records could be used to fight crime.D. Computer software works in preventing crimes.CDepression is one of the most common mental health issues among Americans, and children are also affected by it. Childhood depression increases the risk of suicide. It’s important that parents become aware of the signs and symptoms of childhood depression, because children usually can’t express their feelings in a way that adults will understand that they’re depressed. One in every 33 children may be struggling with depression, according to Kids Health.Signs and Symptoms of Clinical Depression in ChildrenDepression in adults and children can look quite different. Sometimes children become impatient instead of sad and throw a tantrum(发脾气) when depressed. They might not necessarily look like the typical crying person that people are used to seeing on television when someone is described as depressed. Here are more symptoms of childhood depression: overwhelming sadness, weight loss or weight gain due to under-eating or over-eating, sleeplessness, low self-esteem(自尊),etc.A child who is depressed may refuse to go to school, have a sudden drop in his grades, and stop playing with his friends after school. Things that used to make him happy seem to no longer interest him.T reatment Options for Children Suffering from DepressionMedication, individual therapy, and family therapy are forms of treatment for children who are depressed. Many times it is recommended that children try different forms of psychotherapy before considering medication. The most commonly appointed medications for children who have a diagnosis of major depressive disorder are antidepressants(抗抑郁药). Some children need a combination of therapy and medication to reduce the symptoms of depression. It depends on each child’s individual symptoms and the severity of the depression. In any form of treatment, parents play an essential part and should be fully involved.It can be scary for a parent to think that his child is depressed; however, it’s important to understand the signs and symptoms of depression, signs of suicidal thoughts, treatment options forchildhood depression and the basic information about antidepressants.66. From the text we can learn that ______.A. depression is the most common mental problem in AmericaB. about 3 percent of children may be suffering from depressionC. when a child struggles with depression, what he needs most is medicineD. signs and symptoms of depression in children are quite similar to those in adults67. According to the text, we know that if a child is depressed, he may _______.A. get angry easilyB. talk with his parents about his problemC. go out with his friends and have a big mealD. have no interest in anything except watching TV68. All the following are signs and symptoms of childhood depression EXCEPT“________”.A. lack of self-respectB. over-eating or under-eatingC. having difficulty in falling asleepD. often crying when watching TV69. From Paragraph 4, we can infer that _______.A. only the severity of depression determines the form of treatmentB. medication is the most useful form of treatment for depressionC. a child suffering from depression should turn to a psychologist firstD. in dealing with depression, parents play the most important role70. What is the passage about?A. Why children will have depression.B. How we should treat depression in childhood.C. What the symptoms and treatment of depression in children are.D. When the best time for parents to treat depression in children is.PART FOUR WRITINGSECTION ADirection: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Direction: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.How we look and how we appear to others probably worries us more when we are in our teens or early twenties than at any other time in our life. Few of us are content to accept ourselves as we are, and few are brave enough to ignore the trends of fashion?Most fashion magazines or TV advertisements try to persuade us that we should dress in a certain way or behave in a certain manner. If we do, they tell us, we will be able to meet new people with confidence and deal with every situation confidently and without embarrassment. Changing fashion, of course, does not apply just to dress. A barber today does not cut a boy’s hair in the same way as he used to, and girls do not make up in the same way as their mothers and grandmothers did. The advertisers show us the latest fashionable styles and we are constantly under pressure to follow the fashion in case our friends think we are odd or dull.What causes fashions to change? Sometimes convenience or practical necessity or just the fancy of an influential person can establish a fashion. Take hats for example. In cold climates, early buildings were cold inside, so people wore hats indoors as well as outside. In recent times, the late President Kennedy caused a depression in the American hat industry by not wearing hats: more American men followed his example.There is also a cyclical pattern in fashion. In the 1920s in Europe and America, short skirts became fashionable. After World War Two, they dropped to ankle length. Then they got shorter and shorter the miniskirt was in fashion. After a few more years, skirts became longer again. Today, society is much freer and easier than it used to be. It is no longer necessary to dress like everyone else. Within reason, you can dress as you like or do your hair the way you like instead of the way you should because it is the fashion. The popularity of jeans and the “untidy” look seems to be a reaction against the increasingly expensive fashion of the top fashion houses.At the same time, appearance is still important in certain circumstances and then we must choose our clothes carefully. It would be foolish to go to an interview for a job in a law firm wearing jeans and a sweater; and it would be discourteous to visit some distinguished scholar looking as if we were going to the beach or a night club. However, you need never feel depressed if you don’t look like the latest fashion photo. Look around you and you’ll see that no one else does either.I.

Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.JIUQUAN, June 15 (Xinhua) -- An eloquent speaker and a lover of cooking, Liu Yang iswell-poised to be the first Chinese woman in space.When she watched the news on television of China's first manned space mission in 2003, the pilot couldn't help but wonder: What would the Earth look like from outer space?Nine years later, Liu is getting the opportunity to find out herself as China's first female astronaut, taking her place among three Chinese chosen to crew the Shenzhou-9 manned spacecraft.Liu will be in charge of medical experiments during the mission, which will also featureChina's first attempt at a manual space docking procedure."I have full confidence," Liu said before the mission. “Men and women have their own advantages and capabilities in carrying out space missions. They can complement each other and better complete their mission."The native of central China's Henan province started looking toward the skies just after high school, when one of her teachers convinced her to enroll in an aviation school.Joining the People's Liberation Army (PLA) Air Force in 1997, Liu became a veteran pilot after flying safely for 1,680 hours. She was promoted to deputy head of a PLA flight unit before being recruited as a prospective astronaut in May 2010. She is now an Air Force major.Liu has been described by her colleagues as being outgoing, eloquent and well-versed. Since joining the military, she has received accolades for her public speaking, winning first place in a military speech contest in 2010.She has also impressed others as a quick learner. After becoming a prospective astronaut in 2010, she devoted the first year to basic academic and physical training. Before the start of the Shenzhou-9 mission, she had finished all scheduled training courses."Despite starting her training late, she is now on the same page as us, which is beyond our expectations," said Jing Haipeng, commander of the mission.Jing was also impressed by the swiftness and decisiveness Liu has displayed during training sessions, citing the calm manner she displays in dealing with simulated emergencies.However, the difficulty and intensity of her training has not deprived her of life's pleasures. Liu loves reading, particularly novels, essays and history books. She is also a proficient cook."I love children and I love life," said Liu, who lives in Beijing with her husband. "To be with my family is one kind of happiness, but to fly is another kind that people cannot typically experience."81. How many astronauts are there in the Shenzhou-9 manned spacecraft?

Some years ago, Houston airport faced a troubling customer-relations issue. Passengers were making a huge number of 1 about the long waits at baggage claim (行李提取处). In response, the airport managers 2 the number of baggage handlers. The plan worked: the average wait fell to eight minutes. But the complaints 3 despite the apparent success.4 , the managers undertook a more careful, on-site analysis. Theyfound that it took passengers a minute to walk from their 5 gates to baggage claim and seven more minutes to get their bags. Roughly 88 percent of their time, in other words, was spent standing around 6 waiting for their bags.So the airport decided on a new approach: instead of reducing wait time, it 7 the arrival gates farther away from baggage claim area. Passengers now had to 8 six times longer to get their bags. Complaints dropped to near zero.This story shows a general 9 : the experience of waiting is defined only partly by the actual length of the wait. Often the psychology of queuing is more 10 than the length of the wait itself. Occupied time (walking to baggage claim) feels 11 than unoccupied time (standing at baggage claim). Research on 12 has shown that, on average, people overestimate how long they’ve waited in a line by about 36 percent.This is also why one finds mirrors next to lifts. The spread of high-rise buildings after World War II led to complaints about lift 13 . The motive behind the mirrors was 14 to the one used at the Houston airport: give14.
