companion of national holidays. on may 1, there were constant traffic jams on highways leading out of the several metropolises, the longest, according to reports, was 55 kilometers. some blame the jams on the two-year-old policy that allows cars with no more than seven seats to use the highways for free on public holidays, but a beijing news editorial said this is not the real cause of the jams.the growing automobile culture is doubtlessly among the causes. data shows that chinas production and sales of automobiles both went up by 20 million in 2013. but over the same period there has been no breakthrough in highway construction, and when there are too many birds the nest will naturally become crowded.growing tourism also leads to the jams. at the 2014 global summit of the world travel and tourism council, which ended last week, it was reported that chinese people spent almost 3 trillion yuan on tourism in 2013, which took up more than 90 percent of hotel income and more than 80 percent of air and railway use.worse, chinese have to travel during the same periods. as employees rights to paid leave often fail to be protected, many have no choice but to travel on the limited public holidays. from oct 1 to 7, the so-called golden week, almost every tourist site will be full of visitors. therefore it is wrong to blame the free-pass policy.that does not mean the government should stand idle doing nothing. as traffic jams during the holidays are predictable, they could develop more public transport and strengthen legal supervision to ensure that every employee enjoys their entitlement to a paid vacation or offer free passes on other days to encourage people to travel on days other than public holidays. the measures might not prevent traffic jams, but they may at least ease the jams.21. how many factors are mentioned in the passage accounting for the traffic jam on the highway?a. two b. three c. four d. five22. what can we infer from the passage?a. traffic jams often happen on highways on national holidays. b. people prefer to stay at home because of traffic jams.c. chinese people spent over 3 trillion yuan on tourism in 2013.d. there is nothing the government can do to prevent traffic jams.23. what does the underlined sentence (para.2) mean?a. highway construction cannot meet the demand of increasing cars.b. the more highways are built, the less crowded it will become.c. the rapid increase of cars is the direct cause of traffic jam on highways.d. limits should be set on the use of private cars. 24. which of the following ways can ease the jams according to the passage?a. people drive private cars to spend holiday.b. people take trains to spend their holiday.c. employees can have an expense-paid vacation.d. people make use of public holidays to enjoy themselves. breal estate accountantgrowing real estate company located in new york city is currently seeking a qualified individual to assist the controller.the ideal candidate

their beloved spend much money on extra baggage charge. nearly half of these women admitted to lying about the weight of their case to their partner before leaving for the airport, in fear of being made to unload some unnecessary items.but its a fact that women pack more than they need. on average, a woman needs around 57 items in suitcase for a two-week holiday, yet most women pack nearer to 150 items, ranging from skirts, tops, underwear and high heels. in addition, women pack more sun cream, make-up and hair appliances than they were likely to need. they all take up space in the suitcase, only a third of them will see the light of day once at the holiday place.79 percent of women admitted to taking extra items with them, with the reason for this being “just in case”. women plan their holiday wardrobe(衣橱) months in advance. packing enough clothes and other items to last a month is not enough for some women. theyd take a chance to shop for new items while holidaying abroad. so theyll return with even more luggage in their cases.professor karen pine said: “women are tempted to take familiar items with them on holiday, often everything except the kitchen sink. some people find traveling stressful, particularly when theyre unsure about the home comforts available at their holiday place. they over-pack to help cope with those feelings of stress and reduce the uncertainty.”this will come as no surprise to some men, who are used to trying to squeeze their partners luggage into the boot of the car with their own, smaller case. on the other hand, men pack very lightly, with only an average of 40 items for a two-week holiday.28.womenpacktoomuchonholidaybecause_.a.theywanttoshowofftheiritemsb.theypreferamorecomfortableholidayc.theyareafraidtheyllneedthemduringtheholidayd.theywouldliketocleantheirclotheswardrobeverymuch29.howdoesamanfeelabouthiswifepackingtoomuch?a.opposedb.supportivec.positived.surprised30.whatdodrpineswordsimply?a.goingonholidaywillcostalot.b.womendontprefertogoonaholiday.c.itsunderstandablethatwomenover-packinasense. d. peopletendtofeeltiredandstressedonholiday.31. which of the following is true according to the passage?a. all the items women take during their holiday are not of great use to them.b. women often tell their partners what they are going to take in advance.c. women will still buy new items when going abroad beacause what they take is not enough.d. men are indifferent towards their wifes strange behaviours.dmany people rely on a cup of coffee or two to wake them up in the morning or pick them up during the working day, but now a chemist has come up with a speedy alternative to crafting a cup of coffee. u.s. biochemist ben yu has created sprayable energy, which claims to be the worlds first caffeine - based topical energy spray. he said tired workers can spray a shot of caffeine onto their skin without experiencing a strong buzz, loading up on unnecessary calories or being stuck with a nasty aftertaste like they might get from drinking energy drinks or coffee. the patent-pending caffeine spray is an odorless liquid that is absorbed through the skin and distributed through the body over a number of hours to deliver a caffeine hit that apparently lasts longer than guzzling a cup of coffee. each small aluminum bottle of sprayable energy contains around 160 sprays - the equivalent amount of caffeine to 40 cups of coffee and the creators say it is a much cheaper way of getting a caffeine fix than popping to a caf. the only active ingredient in the spray is caffeine, which can naturally enter the human body through the skin by passing through cell membranes（细胞膜） as it is very similar to nicotine in structure. each spritz of sprayable energy contains around a quarter of the amount of caffeine found in a cup of coffee, but apparently has the same effect as a full cup. the website said: the reason for this is our product not being ingested, isnt almost entirely metabolized（新陈代谢） by the liver before entering your system and becoming available to your body.thus, a smaller amount of caffeine can have just the same effect as a very large amount of caffeine ingested through an energy drink or cup of coffee. the website recommends that users apply the spray in places where they normally spritz perfume, such as the neck or wrists, but warns users not to exceed 20 sprays a day. it claims that after spraying the product on the skin, users will feel awake and focused without being over-stimulated, which is common with coffee and energy drinks.32. what can we learn about sprayable energy from the passage? _.a. a bottle of sprayable energyis cheaper than 40 cups of coffee. b. sprayable energy lets users not worry about taking in unnecessary calories.c. sprayable energy can be used at least 20 sprays a dayd. the caffeine spray is a colorless liquid that is absorbed through the skin.33.what can conclude from the passage ? a, sprayable energy can be taken by mouth.b. before sprayable energy is absorbed by body, the liver entirely metabolizes itc. sprayable energy has not already gone into mass productiond. each spritz of sprayable energy has the same effect as a full cup of coffee34. you will probably read this passage in the column of_.a. food b. health c. entertainment d. energy.35. whats the best title of this passage?a. sprayable energy-cheaper but more effective b. sprayable energy-now or neverc. sprayable energy-a latest energy spray d. sprayable energy-a new kind of coffee第2节 （共五小题；每题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。albert einstein offered us more than just the amazing theory of relativity andmc. through
