Which of the following words best describes the authors feeling when she saw the surprise?A Totally shocked BAbsolutely surprised CTruly frightened DExtremely interested24.What can be concluded from the passage?ADo in Rome as the Romans do.BGod helps those who help themselves.CTime and tide wait for no man.DFortune rewards those having patience.BMost children now chat daily either online or through their mobile phones. They are connecting to a huge number of other children all over the world. Some are shy “in real life” but are confident to communicate with others online; others find support from people of their own age on relationship issues, or problems at home. Sometimes the online world, just like the real world, can introduce problems, such as bullying or arguments. Going online is great fun, but there are also a few people who use the Internet for offensive (冒犯性的) or illegal aims. Children must be made aware of both the good things and the dangers. To keep children safe your management must cover the family computer. Just as you decide which TV pro-grams are suitable, you need to do the same for the websites and chat rooms your children visit. Remind your children that online friends are still strangers. Re-minding them of the risks will keep them alert (警惕).Computer studies are part of schoolwork now, so its likely that your children may know more than you do. We get left behind when it comes to the latest gad-gets and the interactive areas of websites, like chat rooms and message boards, which are especially strange. The language of chat is strange to many parents, too. Chatters love to use abbreviations (缩写) such as: atb all the best, bbfn bye bye for now, cul8er see you later, gr8 great, Idk I dont know, imbl it must be love, kit keep in touch, paw parents are watching, lol laugh out loud, xlnt excellent!It seems like another language, and it is! 25. The passage is meant for _.AParents Bchildren. CTeachers Dnet bar owners26. The purpose of writing this passage is to advise _.Apeople not to use the net language in real lifeBchildren not to meet online friends freelyCteachers to have students study on computersDparents to protect their children from online dangers27. In order to keep children safe online, youd better _.Aforbid them to use the InternetBteach them to use correct net wordsCsurf the Internet together with themDchoose suitable websites and chat rooms for them28. If you stand beside him when your son is chatting about something secret online, he may use _.Abbfn Bpaw CLol Dcul8erCSalvador Dali (1904-1989) was one of the most popular modern artists. The Pompidou Centre in Paris is showing its respect and admiration for the artist and his powerful personality with an exhibition bringing together over 200 paintings, sculptures, drawings and more. Among the works and masterworks on exhibition, the visitor will find the best pieces, most importantly The Persistence of Memory. There is also LEnigme sans Fin from 1938, works on paper, objects, and projects for stage and screen and selected parts from television programmes reflecting the artists showman qualities.The visitor will enter the World of Dali through an egg and is met with the beginning, the world of birth. The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exiting through the brain.The exhibition shows how Dali draws the viewer between two infinities (无限). “From the infinity small to the infinity large, contraction and expansion coming in and out of focus: amazing Flemish accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that he used in his museum-theatre in Figueras,” explains the Pompidou Centre.The fine selection of the major works was done in close collaboration (合作)with the Museo Nacional Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain, and with contributions from other institutions like the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida.29. Which of the following best describes Dali according to Paragraph 1?A. optimistic. B. productive. C. generous. D. traditional.30. What is Dalis The Persistence of Memory considered to be?A. One of his masterworks. B. A successful screen adaptation.C. An artistic creation for the stage. D. One of the best TV programmes.31. How are the exhibits arranged at the World of Dali?A. By popularity. B. By importance. C. By size and shape. D. By time and subject.32. What does the word “contributions” in the last paragraph refer to? A. artworks. B. projects. C. donations. D. documents.DA high-factor sunscreen（防晒霜)is generally expected to protect the skin from harmful rays, but it isnt. A new research in this weeks Nature shows that while factor 50 reduces the number of melanomas（黑瘤)and delays their occurrence, it cant prevent them. Melanomas are the most aggressive skin cancers. You have a higher risk if you have red or blond hair, fair skin, blue or green eyes, or sunburn easily, or if a close relative has had one. Melanomas are more common if you have periodic intense exposure to the sun. Other skin cancers are increasingly likely with long-term exposure.There is continuing debate as to how effective sunscreen is in reducing melanomasthe evidence is weaker than it is for preventing other types of skin cancer. A 2011 Australian study of 1,621 people found that people selected to apply sunscreen daily had half the rate of melanomas of people who used cream as needed. A second study, comparing 1,167 people with melanomas to 1,101 who didnt have the cancer, found that using sunscreen routinely, alongside other protection such as hats, long sleeves or staying in the shade, did give some protection. This study said other forms of sun protectionnot sunscreenseemed most beneficial. The study relied on people remembering what they had done over each decade of their lives, so its not entirely reliable. But it seems reasonable to think sunscreen gives people a false sense of security in the sun.The good news is that a combination of sunscreen and covering up can reduce melanoma rates. So if there is a heat wave this summer, it would be best for us, too, to pull on a shirt, apply some sunscreen and put on a hat.33.What is peoples common expectation of a high-factor sunscreen？A. It will delay the occurrence of skin cancer.B. It will protect them from sunburn.C. It will keep their skin smooth and fair.D. It will work for people of any skin color.34.What do we learn from the 2011Australian study of 1,621 people？A. Sunscreen should be applied alongside other protection measures.B. High-risk people benefit the most from the application of sunscreen.C. Irregular application of sunscreen does women more harm than good.D. Daily application of sunscreen helps reduce the incidence of melanomas.35.What does the author suggest to reduce melanoma rates？A. Using both covering up and sunscreen.B. Staying in the shade whenever possible.C. Using covering up instead of sunscreen.D. Applying the right amount of sunscreen.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） TraveltipsthatarenolongertrueWeallloveaninsidetrip,butsomeoftheclassictipsfortravelersnolongerholdtrue.36Bookaplaneticketfarinadvancetosavemoney.This myth may have been true back in the 1960s, when flights were less common than they are today.
