“said Edie Wells, an artist who rents a room in the Bone HouseHer home features a stairway made of bones, floors covered in wine corks （软木塞） and beer bottle capsWells said visitors are most impressed when they see a bathroom with its walls, floor and ceiling entirely covered with broken mirror piecesIn addition, each house is highly energy efficient with plenty insulation （隔热材料） , an on-demand solar hot water heater and a system that can collect and recycle rainwater to clean the toilet and wash clothesPhillips founded Phoenix Commotion 12 years ago with the aim of creating a new model fo r sustainable housingFor as little as $ 10,000 it builds affordable homes for single parents, low-income families and artistsThe company has used hundreds of tons of construction waste by recycling the materials into habitable buildingsPhillips tries to spread his recycled-house idea by speaking at events across the United States, and by using the Internet to reach out to like-minded individualsPhillips said: “Im n ot going to be saving the world anytime soonBut there needs to be at least some visibility for this model in this century56 Which of the following is NOT the advantage of the homes built by Phillips?Aenvironmentally-friendly Benergy efficientCconvenient Dcheap57 What do we know about Dan Phillips?AHe is serious and hard-workingBHe is full of imagination and intelligenceCIt didnt take him long to build the housesDHe didnt give speeches in the United States58 According to the passage, the houses are like artful treasures because they are .Amade of bones BmuseumsCadmired by people Dmade of various trash59 Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?AHome Builder Dan PhillipsBGreen HomesCHome Builder Dan Phillips Tunis Trash into Green HomesDA Home Builder s LifeBWhen JetBlue captain Clayton Osbon became unpredictable, his co-pilot invented a reason for him to go back into the cabinOnce the captain was out of the cockpit （驾驶舱） , the co-pilot locked the door to keep the captain from returningPassengers, some with law enforcement experience, calmed the captainThe flight changed course to Amarillo, Texas where the captain was hospitalizedIncidents in which a pilot has had an in-flight psychological breakdown are rareBut how could it happen at all? Though pilots are required to have an examination at least once a year by a physician approved by the FAA, there are no formal procedures in place to test pilots for signs of psychological problemsAt most airlines, pilots are members of a unionA pilot who appears to have a psychological or an alcohol problem can be reported to a union member whose job it is to investigateIf there is a problem, the pilot is given the choice of getting treatment or being reported to managementBut at airlines, such as Allegiant, JetBlue, and Virgin American where there is no union, pilots are to say the least - unwilling to report a fellow pilot to managementIn most professions, a person experiencing emotional difficulties is free to consult a doctorRut an airline pilot in therapy is viewed with suspicion both by the airline and by the FAANo pilot wants to be put under extra examination by an agency that has the power to revoke their license or end their employmentThat being the case, pilots are less likely than people in other professions to seek helpThere may be no way to make sure this never happens again, but its possibility can be reduced Tests such as the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory （ MMPI） can reliably detect depression, paranoia, schizophrenia, and other problemsThe FAA could require pilots to take the MMPI or a similar test on a periodic basisWhether such testing becomes required will depend upon the publics response to this incident and whether additional incidents take placeFlying is remarkably safe But incidents such as this cause concern60 What does the underlined word “revoke“ most probably mean?Adelay Bcancel Cinterrupt Drenew61 Why are some pilots unwilling to report a fellow pilot to management?ABecause they are tested for signs of psychological problems every yearBBecause they are likely to be treated by physiciansCBecause they are supported by the airlinesDBecause they might be fired62 What is the author s attitude towards the incident?Asatisfied Bindifferent Cconcerned Ddisapproving63 In which part of the newspaper can the passage be found?AEntertainment BSports CBusiness DSocietyCHave you heard of the movie Benji off the Leashf This Benji story7 begins when his mother, a pretty black furry dog, escapes from the puppy mill with Colby, a boy who loves herHe tries to hide her in an abandoned houseThe boy s father discovers her there and takes mother and pups back home to the puppy mill, but leaves Benji behind because he doesnt look purebred （纯血统的） enough to be sold for moneyColby comes back later to rescue the tiny puppy and keeps Benji in his wooden clubhouse, bringing Mom to come to visit him in secretAs Benji grows bigger, it becomes harder to keep him in the clubhouse, and eventually the boy s father discovers him and Benji is forced to flee to the streetsBut despite his fear of Colby s father, Benji cannot forget about his mother, who is growing steadily weaker and sicker He continues to sneak back to the puppy mill yard to spy on the goings-on there and plan a way to rescue herBenjis doggie pal, Scrappy enters the story when he is pushed out of a car into a country laneOnce his paws hit the ground, Scrappy wags his tail once helplessly after the car as it drives away, and then is immediately up to his neck in hapless mischief （顽皮）. Scrappy is a lovably stupid little dog who barely manages to escape the animal control officers who are determined to catch himOne of the wonderfu l things about this movie is that the two stars are not highly trained purebred dogs Both Benji and Scrappy were rescued mixed breed dogs found at local animal sheltersAdorable Benji and his stupid pal, Scrappy, demonstrate that mixed-breed rescue dogs are just as intelligent and trainable as any purebred dogBenji Off the Leash clearly demonstrates the connection between people who abuse animals and people who abuse peopleColby s father takes out his anger on those who are weaker than him, namely by frightening his wife and the dogsHe attempts to frighten Colby, but the boy bravely refuses to let himChildren who are used to fast-paced action films with catchy theme songs may not have the patience for the slower pace of this filmBut for rescue volunteers, older children, and anyone who loves dogs, this is a heartwarming movie that shows how even in today s world of deserted dogs and backyard puppy mills, there can still be happy endings for homeless dogs64 What can be learned from the passage?ATwo dogs star the movie BThe boy s mother is very disgustingCThe movie will be liked by all the children DThe movie is fast-paced65 We can infer from the passage that _AThe movie is in praise of deserting homeless dogsBWe shouldnt have mercy on homeless dogsCWe human beings need to love animals because they are our friendsDmixed-breed rescued dogs are less intelligent and trainable than purebred dogs66 What s the passage mainly about?AReviewing a HimBGiving a summary of a movieCThinking highly of the relationship between animals and humansDCriticizing people deserting animals67 What s the purpose of writing the passage?ATo attract more people to see the movieBTo call on children to help homeless petsCTo show anger about abusing animalsDTo urge people to care and love animalsDCITY SIGHTSEEING TOURThis tour consists of touring the City, Bay and Surrounds Area of the CBD.
