A new cellphonebased tracking device from Hitachi can show, on an employers computer screen, not only the whereabouts of their workers but also whether they are standing，walking, runningor have fallen over.The system, called Partout, was originally developed as a monitoring device for the families of people with dementia, who may wander off and need to be located. “Its estimated that the number of elderly people with symptoms of dementia will reach 1.5 million in Japan next year，” says Hitachis Keisaku Shibatani. But the high cost of the systemearly prices are around 27, 000has put it out of reach of most families. Indeed, companies with large sales forces and police departments who want to track officers on dangerous patrol duties are interested in the system.Partout uses a multifunction location sensing unit that tracks users through global positioning satellites. The users body motion is determined by an accelerometer inside the sensing unit: no movement means the subject has stopped, slow movement means they are walking, fast movement means they are running, and strong and unexpectedly sudden movement means the user may have fallen. The date is relayed through the users cellphone to computer, which displays their position on a map. Graphics record the motion or position of the subjects body.36What is mainly talked about in the text?AJapanese workers are caught playing outside.BMost Japanese families cant afford Partout.CA new cellphonebased tracking deivcePartout.DA new model of cellphone.答案：C解析：主旨题。因本文主要讲述的就是Partouta new cellphonebased tracking device.37Why was the system Partout first developed?ABecause the families of people with dementia can afford it.BBecause police departments want to track officers on dangerous patrol duties.CBecause compaines with large sales forces are interested in the system.DBecause there are many elderly people with symptoms of dementia.答案：D解析：细节题。答案在本文中第二段前部。38The system Partout cant tell that _.Athe person is runningBthe person is walkingCthe person is stoppingDthe person is speaking答案：D解析：推断题。文中并没有提到工人上班时间随便说话的情况。39What would be the best title for the text?AYou Can Run, but You Cant HideBNew Cellphones in NeedCThe Future of CellphonesDModern Technology and Personal Secret答案：A解析：主旨题。纵观全文Partout的特征，可知答案。BMore than 40 years ago, John Willams gave away all of his belongings and went off to the mountains to live the way people lived 100 years ago. For food he traps wild animals, fishes in the rivers, and plants whatever he can. John lives in a cabin he made by hand, out of trees he chopped down with an ax. Though he has no relatives he knows of, he does have a deer he raised from a fawn. The deer lives in the house in the winter and goes with John when he goes into the forest for food. Nobody lives within fifty miles of his cabin in the mountains and John has not been out of the mountains during the entire forty years. One day last year I hiked in to see how John lives. It was like going back in time. There were no roads, no stores, no noise, no pollution, not even a post office.Most notable of all, there were no people and thats just the way John Williams wants to keep his part of the worldwithout people. But there is a paradox in his story. John is an educated man. He has books and nobody knows how he got them. Mostly he reads about his world, the forest, the animals, the plants, and the mountains. He has seen airplanes flying overhead but does not want to know about them. For him, electricity is lightning, not light bulbs, refrigerators, televisions, or washing machines. John Williams is 85 years old and had not had a sick day in his life. He attributes his long life to the fact that it has nothing to do with people and in order that he might enjoy many more years of health, happiness, and solitude, I will not tell you where his kingdom lies. There is no room there for you or me.40Who lives in John Williams house?AHe and his family.BJohn Williams himself.CNobodyhe sleeps outside.DA group of friends.答案：B解析：细节题。文中第一段第6行中Though he has no relatives he knows of, 可知答案。41John Williams house is made of _.Awood BbricksCanimal skin Dold stones答案：A解析：细节题。答案在文中第一段第5、6行。42John Williams has lived in his present location _.Asince he was bornBsince his wife diedCalmost half his lifeDsince he graduated from college答案：C解析：推断题。因John is 85 years old and he has lived there for 40 years.43According to the writer, which of the following could John Williams NOT use in his cabin?AAn ax.

Over the past 20 years, numerous studies have found that moderate alcohol consumption, thats to say, one or two beers, glasses of wine or cocktails daily helps to prevent coronary heart disease. Last week a report in the New England Journal of Medicine added strong new evidence in support of that theory. More important, the work provided the first solid indication of how alcohol works to protect the heart.In the study, researchers from Bostons Brigham and Womens Hospital and Harvard Medical School compared the drinking habits of 340 men and women who had suffered recent heart attacks, with those of healthy people of the same age and sex. The scientists found that people who sip one to three drinks a day are about half as likely to suffer heart attacks as nondrinkers are. The apparent source of the protection：those who drank alcohol had higher blood levels of highdensity lipoproteins (脂蛋白)，the socalled good cholesterol (胆固醇), which is known to prevent heart disease.As evidence has mounted, some doctors have begun recommending a daily drink for patients of heart diseases. But most physicians are not ready to recommend a regular happy hour for everyone. The risks of teetotalling are nothing compared with the dangers of too much alcohol, including high blood pressure, strokes and liver troublesnot to mention violent behaviour and traffic accidents. Moreover, some studies suggest that even moderate drinking may increase the incidence of breast and colon cancer. Until there is evidence that the benfits of daily dose of alcohol outweigh the risks, most people wont be able to take a doctors prescription (指示，处方) to the neighbourhood bar or liquor store.44The medical article quoted (引用)in the first paragraph indicates _.Athe way in which alcohol can help the heartBthat a moderate drink daily can prevent heart problemsCwhy alcoholic drinks are dangerous to ones healthDthat reports on the advantages of alcohol were misled答案：B解析：第一段第一句是一个问题，第二句是对这个问题的回答。然后在第三句中作者又引用了新英格兰医学杂志上的一篇文章来进一步支持这一理论，故B项为正确选项。45Experiments showed that nondrinkers had _.Alarger amounts of good cholesterolBsmaller amounts of good cholesterolChigher blood pressureDlower blood pressure答案：B解析：作者在第二段中先用实例进行对比。在本段最后一句指出，明显的保护源是饮酒者的血液中高密脂蛋白的含量更高，即所谓的好的胆固醇高，可抑制心脏病。由此推知不饮酒者的“好的胆固醇”少。46According to the passage, moderate drinking _.Ais recommended by most doctors for heart patientsBshould be allowed on prescriptionCis still not medically advisableDis not related to liver problems答案：C解析：由最后一段可知，即使是适当饮酒，也有两种不同的态度：有些医生建议心脏病患者每天喝上一点，可大多数医生不准备这么做。此外，有的研究报告指出适当饮酒可能增加乳房和结肠癌的患病率。由此可知，正确选项为C。47The main theme of this passage is _.Athe change in recent drinking habitsBthe connection between cancer and alcoholCwhether moderate drinkers outlive nondrinkersDwhether alcohol may be good for ones health答案：D解析：全文主要说明饮酒是否对健康有好处。D(2010江苏)BORDERCROSSINGSWhile there are no restrictions on the amount of money that you can bring across the border，you must report to both the US and Canadian border services amounts equal to or greater than $ 10, 000.PERSONAL EXEMPTIONS(免税)ON PURCHASESAMERICANS RETURNING TO THE USLess than 48 hours：$ 200 US48 hours or more：$ 800 US dutyfree personal exemption.next $ 1,000 US at 3%Including up to 100 cigars and 100 cigarettes.CANADIANS RETURNING TO CANADALess than 24 hours：$ 50 CAN48 hours or more：$ 400 CANIncluding up to 100 cigars and 200 cigarettes.7 days or more：$ 750 CANIncluding up to.100 cigars and 200 cigarettes.DOCUMENTATION NEEDED FORBORDER CROSSINGSLAND OR SEA TO THE US(INCLUDING FERRIES)A valid passport or passport card，or a NEXUS card.(A NEXUS card is a Trusted Traveler Program that provides quick travel for preapproved，low risk travelers through special lanes.)A recent Washington State，New York or BC drivers license.Note Children 15 years of age and younger require only a birth certificate or copy (Certified copies are not reqvired but are advised.)AIR TRAVEL TO THE USA valid passport，an Air NEXUS card，or a US.
