（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）AWhen I was 12, all I wanted was a signet (图章) ring. They were the "in" thing and it seemed every girl except me had one. On my 13th birthday, my Mum gave me a signet ring with my initials (姓名首字母) carved （雕刻）into it. I was in heaven.What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn't being "replaced". We'd been burnt out in fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything—so most of the “new" stuff (东西) we got was really just to replace what we'd lost. But not my ring. My ring was new.Then, only one month later, I lost it. I took it off before bed and it was missing in the morning. I was sad and searched everywhere for it. But it seemed to have disappeared. Eventually, I gave up and stopped looking for it. And two years later, we sold the house and moved away.Years passed, and a couple of moves later, I was visiting my parents' when Mum told me that she had something for me. It wasn't my birthday, nor was it Easter or Christmas or any other gift-giving occasion. Mum noticed my questioning look. “You’ll recognize this one," she said, smiling.Then she handed me a small ring box. I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet ring inside. The family who had bought our house 13 years earlier had recently decided to do some redecorations, which included replacing the carpets. When they pulled the carpet up in my old bedroom, they found the ring. As it had my initials carved into it, they realized who owned the ring. They'd had it professionally cleaned up by a jeweler before sending it to my mother. And it still fits me.21. The underlined word "in" in the first paragraph probably means "_____".A. practicalB. availableC. fashionableD. renewable22. When she got the ring back, the writer was about _____.A. 13 years oldB. 15 years oldC. 26 years oldD. 28 years old23. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The writer's family moved several times.B. The writer never stopped looking for her ring.C. The writer's ring was cleaned up by the new house owner.D. The writer lost her ring in the morning when she took it off.24. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Lost and FoundB. My New RingC. Lost and ReplacedD. An Expensive RingBHaving returned from her round trip, the angry woman stood outside the ticket office of the station. “The railway owes me ￡12,”she said to Harry Jenks, the young man working at the office. “You sold me a ticket for May 22nd, but there was no ship from Jersey that night. So my daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me ￡12.”Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. “Come into the office, Madam,” he said politely. “I’ll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd.”The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered. There was no sailing on May 22nd.How could he have made such a careless mistake. He shouldn’t have sold her a ticket for that day. Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child. “You look sun burnt,” he said to her. “Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey? ”“Yes,” she answered, shyly. “The beach was lovely. And I can swim too!”“That’s fine,” said Harry. “My little girl can’t swim a bit yet. Of course, she’s only three...”“I’m four,” the child said proudly. “I’ll be four and a half.”Harry turned to the mother. “I remember your ticket, Madam, ”he said. “But you didn’t get one for your daughter, did you? ”“Er, well...”the woman looked at the child.”“I mean...she hasn’t started school yet. She’s only four.”“A four-year-old child must have a ticket, Madam. A child’s return ticket to Jersey costs...let me see...￡13.50.So if the railway pays your hotel, you will owe ￡1.50.The law is the law, but since the fault was mine...”The woman stood up, took the child’s hand and left the office.25. The woman was angry because ________.A. she couldn’t use the ticket for her round tripB. she had to return home a day earlier than she had plannedC. she spent more money than she had expectedD.

When Harry said “The law is the law, but since the fault was mine...”,he meant that______.A. they must follow the law, even though the fault was hisB. the woman had to pay him ￡1.50 and the railway would pay her for the hotelC. he had to be strict with the woman because of the law, although he didn’t want toD. she should pay ￡1.50, but since he had made a mistake, she could go without paying28.

They were there all the time: early morning, noon, and evening. There were little old ladies in gray sweats, young couples in Adidas shoes, middle-aged men with red faces. “Come on!” My friend Alex encouraged me to join him as he jogged by my house every evening. “You’ll feel great.”Well, I had nothing against feeling and if Alex could jog every day, anyone could. So I took up jogging seriously and gave it a good two months of my life, and not a day more. Based on my experience, jogging is the most overvalued form of exercise around, and judging from the number of the people who left our neighborhood jogging army, I’m not alone in my opinion.First of all, jogging is very hard on the body. Your legs and feet take a real pounding（重击）running down a road for two or three miles. I developed foot, leg, and back problems. Then I read about a nationally famous jogger who died of a heart attack while jogging, and I had something else to worry about. Jogging doesn’t kill hundreds of people, but if you have any physical weaknesses, jogging will surely bring them out, as they did with me.Secondly, I got no enjoyment out of jogging. Putting one foot in front of the other for forty-five minutes isn’t my idea of fun. Jogging is also a lonely pastime. Some joggers say, “I love being out there with just my thoughts.” Well, my thoughts began to bore me, and most of them were on how much my legs hurt.And how could I enjoy something that brought me pain? And that wasn’t just the first week; it was practically every day for two months. I never got past the pain level, and pain isn’t fun. What a cruel way to do it! So many other exercises, including walking, lead to almost the same results painlessly, so why jog?I don’t jog any more, and I don’t think I ever will. I’m walking two miles three times a week at a fast pace, and that feels good. I bicycle to work when the weather is good. I’m getting exercise, and I’m enjoying it at the same time. I could never say the same for jogging, and I’ve found a lot of better ways to stay in shape.29. The underlined word “them” (Paragraph 3) most probably refers to _____.A. heart attacksB. back problemsC. famous joggersD. physical weaknesses30. What was the writer’s attitude towards jogging in the beginning?A. He was strongly against it.B. He was very fond of it.C. He felt it was worth a try.D. He thought it must be painful.31. Why did the writer give up jogging two months later?A. He disliked doing exercise outside. B . He found it neither healthy nor interesting.C. He was afraid of having a heart attack.D. He was worried about being left alone.32. From the writer’s experience, we can conclude that______.A. nothing other than jogging can help people keep fitB. he is the only person who hates joggingC. not everyone enjoys joggingD. jogging makes people feel greater than any other sportDYour glasses may someday replace your smart phone, and some New Yorkers are ready for the switch. Some in the city can't wait to try them on and use the maps and GPS that the futuristic eyewear is likely to include." I'd use it if I were hanging out with friends at 3 a. m. and going to the bar and wanted to see what was open," said Walter Choo, 40, of Fort Greene.The smart phone-like glasses will likely come out this year and cost between $250 and $600, the Times said, possibly including a variation of augmented(增强的) reality, a technology already available on smart phones and tablets (平板电脑) that overlays information onto the screen about one's surroundings. So, for example, if you were walking down a street, indicators(指示灯) would pop up showing you the nearest coffee shop or directions could be plotted out and come into view right on the sidewalk in front of you." As far as a mainstream consumer product, this just isn't something anybody needs," said Sam Biddle, who writes for . " We're used to having one thing in our pocket to do all these things," he added, "and the ordinary consumer isn't going to be able to afford another device (装置) that's hundreds and hundreds of dollars. "Google publisher Seth Weintraub, who has been reporting on the smart phone-like glasses since late last year, said he is confident that this type of wearable device will eventually be as common as smart phones."It's just like smart phones 10 years ago," Weintraub said. "A few people started getting emails on their phones, and people thought that was crazy. Same kind of thing. We see people bending their heads to look at their smart phones, and it's unnatural," he said. "There's going to be improvements to that, and this a step there. "33. One of the possible functions of the smart phone-like glasses is to ____.A. program the opening hours of a barB. supply you with a picture of the futureC. provide information about your surroundingsD. update the maps and GPS in your smart phones34. According to Sam Biddle, the smart phone-like glasses are ____.A. expensive for ordinary consumersB. attractive to New YorkersC. available to people worldwideD. necessary for teenagers35.
