In the school cafeteria, when people talked about TV shows, which I didn’t have the channels for, or on MSN Messenger, when I read unfamiliar song lyrics my friends had shared, I felt upset and I’d pr etend to be calm and recognize what they were talking about, like everyone else.I did this, as I didn’t want to be seen not to understand some things that people, I respected were good at. I thought that if I didn’t know what was going on, it betrayed a m oral failing and exposed me as a boy who was deeply uncool and actually, a bit stupid.And so I nodded along silently. I prayed I wouldn’t be found out what I really was, or I would feel embarrassed. I would follow up each incident with some diligent homework on the subject, trying to disguise myself. Unsurprisingly, it all became far too much and recently I’ve found myself overwhelmed by the number of things I didn’t know about. From politics to pop culture—even Micro Electro Mechanical Systems. I just felt exhausted by it all.And so I made a decision. I decided to stop nodding frequently at the pub while crazily searching the relative information under the table. Instead, now I’m embracing saying what is really true when I don’t know what the other person is talking about. Instead of hurrying tomake up some funny opinion about a show I’ve never seen, I’ll say something like: “I’ve heard of that show but I haven’t watched it yet” Saying “I don’t know” is such a simple thing. I’m sorry that it took me so lo ng to start saying that. I’ve changed my attitude towards something I don’t know in life. I’ll never get caught in an embarrassing lie again.4．What does the author tell us in paragraph 1?A．His fear of making mistakes. B．The ways to make friends in the past. C．School activities he and his friends loved. D．His sense of shame about lying in the past.5．How did the author feel when he didn’t know about the topic m conversation? A．Confused. B．Anxious and awkward. C．Unconcerned. D．Calm and relaxed6．What does t he underlined word “disguise” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A．Hide. B．Beat.C．Expose. D．Fool.7．What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?A．To show disadvantages of being ignored.B．To show some embarrassing learning experiences.C．To tell us what to do with the case of being “caught out”.D．To tell us how saying “I don’t know” changed his life attitude.Back when the Mississippi River flowed wild, its ever-changing waters moved soil across the North American continent. It picked up sand and dirt in the north and brought it to the southern areas of what we now call the state of Louisiana. Thousands of years later,man-made barriers called levees (防洪堤) and flood-control systems control the powerful river. But Louisiana officials are making plans to use the Mississippi River’s ancient power to build new land as a way to ease the threat of rising seas.Engineers hope to remake the destroyed low-lying lands by copying nature—digging into the levees and redirecting the water. The water holds a lot of small dirt sediments (沉淀物). The sediments can flow into coastal basins.Some critics question whether the idea presents its own environmental risks. But if it does work, the project would rebuild an important protection against storm waves. It would also help the land provide new living areas for birds and fish that depend on wetlands.Saltwater is destroying the coast. Pathways cut for oil and gas development, boat travel and logging have worsened the problem. The state estimates that it has lost about 518,000 hectares of land since 1932. If nothing is done, more than twice that much land could disappear over the next 50 years.Experts and officials have discussed the idea of using the river to rebuild the coast for many years. But it was not until money became available from the 2010 BP oil spill that the plan began to really take shape. In 2010, an explosion killed 11 people on an oil rig (石油钻塔) off the Gulf Coast that energy company BP operated. Millions of gallons of oil then flowed into the water over the next three months.One year later, the United States government ruled that BP was responsible for the accident,The company was ordered to pay billions of dollars for the damage. Louisiana is putting much of its share of the money toward coastal restoration.8．What advantage will the new land bring?A．Preventing severe drought.B．Creating habitats for animals.C．Controlling the powerful river.D．Increasing the northern farm land.9．What can cause the coast to disappear faster?A．Energy changes.B．Destroyed levees.C．Man-made disasters.D．Man-made water protection systems.10．What made the plan of rebuilding the coast land come into effect?A．The restoration of an oil rig.B．The payment of compensation by BP.C．The strong demand from oil companies.D．The special support from some local critics.11．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Use Nature Power to Stop Soil LosingB．Let the River Go Back to Its Original StateC．Fight Coastal Destruction by Copying NatureD．Remove the Man-Made Barriers from the RiverUsing modern technology, archaeologists (考古学家) have recently discovered about 200 Mayan artifacts (玛雅古器) in Mexico, which surprisingly, appear to have been untouched for up to 1,000 years. The artifacts were found inside a cave in ruins of the ancient Mayan city of Chichen Itza on Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula.The lead researcher on the project is Mexican archaeologist Guillermo de Anda. He called the cave a “scientific treasure”.The findings included bone pieces and burnt offering materials. In addition, incense burners, vases, plates and other objects were discovered. Some items included the portrait of Tlaloc, the rain god of central Mexico.The cave where the objects were found is so unique. It is part of a cave system known as Balamku. The cave is long, narrow and dark. It is about three kilometers east of the main pyramid of Kukulkan. It sits at the center of Chichen Itza which is the stone city described by the United Nations as “one of the greatest Mayan centers of the Yucatan Peninsula.”The cave sits about 24 meters underground, with areas connected by passages. Some of the passages were so narrow that researchers had to climb in or pull themselves through. The team has so far explored about 460 meters of the cave, and is unsure how far it stretches. The team plans to continue exploring the cave. The found artifacts will not be removed, but studied inside.The team accidentally found the artifacts while exploring Chichen Itza in an effort to learn more about its underground water system. The new discovery will help scientists better understand the history, culture, lives and beliefs of people who lived in Chichen Itza, especially in the boom years.Archaeologists believe there may be another cave hidden under the pyramid of Kukulkan that could be connected to the latest find. “Let’s hope God will lead us there,” Guillermo de Anda said. “That is part of the reason why we are entering these sites to find a connection to the natural well under the Kukulkan.”12．What’s amazing about the M ayan artifacts discovered in Mexico?A．The long history and perfect state.B．The digging time and location.C．The current high price.D．The variety of usage.13．What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A．The features of the cave. B．The findings in the cave.C．The ancient cave system. D．The origin of Mayan centers. 14．What is the significance of the new discovery?A．It can help scientists register cultural relics.B．It can encourage archaeologists to form work beliefs.C．It can help scientists further learn about Mayan civilization.D．It can arouse the interest of Mexicans in archaeology.15．What will archaeologists do next according to the last paragraph?A．Dig wells under the Kukulkan.B．Move the findings to another cave.C．Find the cause of groundwater disappearance.D．Try to find another cave under the pyramid of Kukulkan.If you’re enjoying a cup of tea while reading this, you’re supporting just about every organ in your body.

Widespread usage of that technology has been blocked by economic and environmental concerns due to possible leaks. Instead, in a study published in Nature Communications, the group details their lasting and cost-effective plan for transforming CO2 into coal.This new process involves a liquid metal catalyst（催化剂） that is useful in conducting electricity. CO2 gas is then mixed in a container with some liquid and the liquid metal. Once electricity charge is introduced, the CO2 begins to turn into solid pieces of carbon, which can be collected and stored.What makes this particularly unique is that the entire process can occur at room temperature. Previousexperiments have only shown a gas to solid conversion at extremely high temperatures, which made it impossible on a large scale. Now, the researchers are hoping that their work will be used to create even further options when it comes to carbon storage.In an interesting side benefit, the solid carbon also works as an electrode(电极），which opens up a world of possibilities. “A side benefit of the process is that the carbon can hold electrical charge, becoming a super battery, so it could potentially be used as a part in future vehicles,” explains Dr. Dorna Esrafilzadeh, a Vice-Chancellor’s Research Fellow in RMIT’s School of Engineering. “The process also produces fuel as a by-product, which could also have industrial applications.”24.What can we know about the previous methods?A.The previous methods are not very popular.B.The previous methods can be done easily.C.People have to inject a liquid to the gas.D.People made mistakes by previous methods.25.What is the special part of the new method?A.It can produce much solid carbon.B.It can be done in any kind of container.C.It doesn’t need extreme temperature.D.It needs electricity to make the progress.26.We can predict from the last paragraph that the new method_________.A.will be influenced by natureB.will influence the future industryC.will be used to make new vehiclesD.will make all the countries powerful27.What is the best title for the passage?A.A new method to increase CO2B.A new carbon capture technologyC.A new technology to get useful carbonD.An Australian advanced carbon batteryCThose of you who are bad at math may some day be able to improve your skills through a painless method of electrical brain stimulation(刺激).In a study, neuroscientists at Oxford University reported that adults with normal math abilities were able to improve their performance on a series of numerical tests with the help of a technique known as transcranial direct-current stimulation (TDCS).TDCS involves stimulating specific regions of the brain with low-level electrical currents to improve or reduce the activity of neurons (神经细胞). Over the last decade, the procedure has shown promise in improving brain functions in stroke (中风) victims, as well as in people with Parkinson’s disease. But this is the first study to show that TDCS can help healthy individuals do better on math tests.For the study, Cohen Dosh and his colleagues studied 15 student volunteers. The students were asked to learn a series of artificial numbers. “As our aim is eventually to help children when they are experiencing learning difficulties with numbers, we wanted the adult subjects to learn new materials rather than testing them with materials that they already knew,” Cohen Dosh explained.His team tested the participants’ ability to judge the relationships of the artificial numbers to one another and to map them correctly in space using standard testing methods for numerical ability.The results of the tests showed that the brain stimulation improved the participants’ ability to learn the new numbers and that those improvements lasted for six months. Control tests showed that the effect was specific to the learned symbols and did not affect other cognitive(认知的) functions.“Like many good studies, it opens a window for lots of questions, including ‘Will this work on children?’ and ‘Is it safe to use in children?” said Dr. Edwin M. Robertson.“Our aim is to find a way to improve cognitive treatment by coupling it with harmless and painless brain stimulation,” said Cohen Dosh. “The experiments that we are doing have been designed to improve leaning disabilities, but of course they can be used by others to improve average math perf ormance, and we don’t have any control over that.”28.According to the text, TDCS has been applied in the field of _______.A.physicsB. psychologyC. educationD. medicine29.The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refers to _______A.the artificial numbersB. the adult subjectsC. the new materialsD. the learning difficulties30.The attitude of Dr. Robertson toward Dosh’s technique is _______.A.neutralB. excitedC. indifferentD. disapproving31.What is the main idea of the text?A.A way has been found to improve the math skills of adults.B.Teacher can stimulate the math skills of students with electricity.C.Electric shocks may reduce one’s ability to calculate.D.Math skills improve with electrical brain stimulationDI grew up in a family that loved Halloween and eagerly accepted seasonal opportunities to create numbers of scary situations. There was something in the tacit(默认的) agreement about being scared on Halloween that made it okay to take things to another level. Whether for front yard decorations or the theatrical, haunted(闹鬼的) house we ran, the people stepping up knew what they were in for.Our haunted house had an age restriction against children 12 and under. The restriction was not only meant to protect kids with big imaginations, but it could also let the adults in the group enjoy the experience without having to watch out for younger ones with them. Even so, we had adults get scared. One woman crawled out in a mid-show. But everyone knew that, if at any point they got too scared, they just had to say, “I want out.” A penlight would turn on, one of us would grab onto their arm, and we would lead them off into the dark---ten seconds and done. Then the person stepped into the light of the basement stairwell, having an early teenage version of someone like me pull off a black mask and ask if they were okay.The goal was never to make them feel bad; it was to make them feel comfortable. If they seemed calm enough, sometimes we asked if they wanted to join back up in the last room. We would give a very basic description of what would happen. Some of them didn’t, but some of them did. There was no point in trying to convince someone who no longer wanted to be scared. Everyone deserves to get a chance to enjoy the day in their own way and on their own terms.32.Why did the writer’s family place an age restriction?A.To help the adults have a great time.B.To prevent kids from imagining fiercely.C.To protect people from the haunted house.D.To help the adults watch out for younger kids.33.If a man was too afraid, what could he do?A.Turn on a penlight.B.Run out of the house.C.Lead others into the dark.D.Say that he wants to go out.34.Which word can best describe the purpose of the activity?A.BadB.

ABeyond Facebook: The best travel social networks you need to knowWhen it comes to picking a destination for your next big vacation or even your next meal, nothing beats a personal recommendation from someone who has already made the trip. While you don’t always hear a ton about social networks for travelers, there are a number of great ones out there that can help you make those difficult decisions, and perhaps a few new friends in the process.1.WaynSometimes we can all benefit from a little inspiration. With Wayn, you search for new travel destinations based on the type of activities you’d like to do. For instance, you might type in skiing or diving and get suggestions on where the best places are to visit. Already know where you want to go? You can also search by destination and get tips from locals on what to do while you’re there.2.HellotelBusiness travel often means lonely travel. Hellotel creates a localized social n etwork around the hotel you’re staying in, allowing you to connect with other nearby travelers(or locals) to grab a drink or do a little networking. Have a specific need? You can also ask the group questions about everything from restaurants to transportation options and get answers in real time.3.TroverA picture is worth a thousand words. Explore some of the world’s most exciting travel destinations through the photos of other travelers. Trover creates Instagram-like galleries you can explore with user-submitted photos from around the world. You can use the images to plan your next big getaway, or to just to take a virtual vacation from your office chair during your lunch break.21.What can be learned about from Wayn according to the passage?A. Specific food.B. Tips from the travelers.C. Types of activitiesD. Suggestions for drinks.22. Where can you enjoy other travelers’ photos of travel destinations?A. FacebookB. Wayn.C. Hellotel.D. Trover.23. What is the passage mainly about?A. The introductions of travel social networks.B. The suggestions about travel destinations.C. The advice about your vacations.D. The tips about networks.BResearchers out of Melbourne have discovered an effective new method to capture the atmospheric carbondioxide that is damaging our planet and transform it into something solid, making it much easier to store. Carbon capture isn’t new, but previous methods call for the gas to get into a liquid and then the mixed gas is forced into underground. Widespread usage of that technology has been blocked by economic and environmental concerns due to possible leaks. Instead, in a study published in Nature Communications, the group details their lasting and cost-effective plan for transforming CO2 into coal.This new process involves a liquid metal catalyst（催化剂）that is useful in conducting electricity. CO2 gas is then mixed in a container with some liquid and the liquid metal. Once electricity charge is introduced, the CO2 begins to turn into solid pieces of carbon, which can be collected and stored.What makes this particularly unique is that the entire process can occur at room temperature. Previous experiments have only shown a gas to solid conversion at extremely high temperatures, which made it impossible on a large scale. Now, the researchers are hoping that their work will be used to create even further options when it comes to carbon storage.In an interesting side benefit, the solid carbon also works as an electrode(电极），which opens up a world of possibilities. “A side benefit of the process is that the carbon can hold electrical charge, becoming a super battery, so it could potentially be used as a part in future vehicles,” explains Dr. Dorna Esrafilzadeh, a Vice-Chancellor’s Research Fellow in RMIT’s School of Engineering. “The process also produces fuel as a by-product, which could also have industrial applications.”24.What can we know about the previous methods?A.T he previous methods are not very popular.B.T he previous methods can be done easily.C.P eople have to inject a liquid to the gas.D.P eople made mistakes by previous methods.25.What is the special part of the new method?A.I t can produce much solid carbon.B.I t can be done in any kind of container.C.I t doesn’t need extreme temperature.D.I t needs electricity to make the progress.26.We can predict from the last paragraph that the new method_________.A.w ill be influenced by natureB.w ill influence the future industryC.w ill be used to make new vehiclesD.w ill make all the countries powerful27.What is the best title for the passage?A.A new method to increase CO2B.A new carbon capture technologyC.A new technology to get useful carbonD.An Australian advanced carbon batteryCThose of you who are bad at math may some day be able to improve your skills through a painless method of electrical brain stimulation(刺激).In a study, neuroscientists at Oxford University reported that adults with normal math abilities were able to improve their performance on a series of numerical tests with the help of a technique known as transcranial direct-current stimulation (TDCS).TDCS involves stimulating specific regions of the brain with low-level electrical currents to improve or reduce the activity of neurons (神经细胞). Over the last decade, the procedure has shown promise in improving brain functions in stroke (中风) victims, as well as in people with Parkinson’s disease. But this is the first study toshow that TDCS can help healthy individuals do better on math tests.For the study, Cohen Dosh and his colleagues studied 15 student volunteers. The students were asked to learn a series of artificial numbers. “As our aim is eventually to help children when they are experiencing learning difficulties with numbers, we wanted the adult subjects to learn new materials rather than testing them with materials that they already knew,” Cohen Dosh explained.His team tested the participants’ ability to judge the relationships of the artificial numbers to one another and to map them correctly in space using standard testing methods for numerical ability.The results of the tests showed that the brain stimulation improved the participants’ ability to learn the new numbers and that those improvements lasted for six months. Control tests showed that the effect was specific to the learned symbols and did not affect other cognitive(认知的) functions.“Like many good studies, it opens a window for lots of questions, including ‘Will this work on children?’ and ‘Is it safe to use in children?” said Dr. Edwin M. Rober tson.“Our aim is to find a way to improve cognitive treatment by coupling it with harmless and painless brain stimulation,” said Cohen Dosh. “The experiments that we are doing have been designed to improve leaning disabilities, but of course they can be u sed by others to improve average math performance, and we don’t have any control over that.”28.According to the text, TDCS has been applied in the field of _______.A.physicsB. psychologyC. educationD. medicine29.The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refers to _______A.the artificial numbersB. the adult subjectsC. the new materialsD. the learning difficulties30.The attitude of Dr. Robertson toward Dosh’s technique is _______.A.neutralB. excitedC. indifferentD. disapproving31.What is the main idea of the text?A.A way has been found to improve the math skills of adults.B.Teacher can stimulate the math skills of students with electricity.C.Electric shocks may reduce one’s ability to calculate.D.Math skills improve with electrical brain stimulationDI grew up in a family that loved Halloween and eagerly accepted seasonal opportunities to create numbers of scary situations. There was something in the tacit(默认的) agreement about being scared on Halloween that made it okay to take things to another level. Whether for front yard decorations or the theatrical, haunted(闹鬼的) house we ran, the people stepping up knew what they were in for.Our haunted house had an age restriction against children 12 and under. The restriction was not only meant to protect kids with big imaginations, but it could also let the adults in the group enjoy the experience without having to watch out for younger ones with them. Even so, we had adults get scared. One woman crawled out in a mid-show. But e veryone knew that, if at any point they got too scared, they just had to say, “I want out.” A penlight would turn on, one of us would grab onto their arm, and we would lead them off into the dark---ten seconds and done. Then the person stepped into the light of the basement stairwell, having an early teenage version of someone like me pull off a black mask and ask if they were okay.The goal was never to make them feel bad; it was to make them feel comfortable. If they seemed calm enough, sometimes we asked if they wanted to join back up in the last room. We would give a very basic description of what would happen. Some of them didn’t, but some of them did. There was no point in trying to convince someone who no longer wanted to be scared. Everyone deserves to get a chance to enjoy the day in theirown way and on their own terms.32.Why did the writer’s family place an age restriction?A.To help the adults have a great time.B.To prevent kids from imagining fiercely.C.To protect people from the haunted house.D.To help the adults watch out for younger kids.33.If a man was too afraid, what could he do?A.Turn on a penlight.B.Run out of the house.C.Lead others into the dark.D.Say that he wants to go out.34.Which word can best describe the purpose of the activity?A.BadB.
