It is like a normal watch, but it can do all the things a mobile phone does and more. At US $349, the Apple Watch is expensive. Some people doubt that they will become as successful as smartphones. However, it seems that it will open another door for the use of computers. The watch taps you whenever a new message comes in. It prepares answers to questions you receive from friends. It checks your health. “Its the most personal product weve ever made,” Cook said. If the Apple Watch becomes popular, it will change the way the world communicates with computers. “It might not only be a change for Apple, but for the whole industry,” says technology expert, Daniel Ives. How does it work? The Apple Watch has a speaker that users can both hear and feel. You can press the side button to communicate with people quickly and easily. The Apple Watch also introduces health and fitness apps(应用程序)that can help people lead healthier lives. You can try it.According to Matt Vella, a writer for TIME magazine, the watch is “the most thrilling product since the iPad.” After actually trying the watch, he says: “ Theres a lot we dont know about the Apple Watch. How long will its battery last? How exactly will it connect with the iPhone? But wearing the watch answers some other questions. It is very comfortable. You can easily forget you are wearing the Apple Watch.”25. What does the underlined sentence probably mean? A. The Apple Watch will be successful as the smartphone. B. Contrary to popular belief, many people dislike the Apple Watch. C. Some people dont think the Apple Watch will be as popular as smartphones. D. Some people think the Apple Watch will be more popular than smartphones.26. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. The Apple Watch has a speaker.B. The Apple Watch can check your health.C. You can send messages with the Apple Watch.D. The Apple Watch doesnt need a battery.27. What does Matt Vella think about the Apple Watch? A. Exciting. B. Beautiful. C. Normal D. Expensive. 28. This passage is about _.A. how to choose the Apple Watch B. why people buy the Apple WatchC. a new product D. a new method C When we perceive other people, we seldom describe a person in cold and objective words. “She was 5 feet 8 inches tall, had fair hair, and wore a colored skirt.” More often, we try to get inside the other person to pinpoint his or her attitudes, emotions, motivations, abilities, ideas and characters. Furthermore, we sometimes behave as if we can accomplish this difficult job very quickly-perhaps with a two-second glance.We try to obtain information about others in may ways. Social scientist Berger suggests several methods for reducing uncertainties about others: watching, without being noticed, a person interacting with others, particularly with others who are known to you so you can compare the observed persons behavior with the known others behavior, observing a person in a situation where social behavior is relatively unrestrained(自然的) or where a wide variety of behavioral responses are called for; deliberately structuring the physical or social environment so as to observe the persons responses to specific stimuli（刺激）; asking people who have had or have frequent contact with the person about him or her; and using various strategies in face-to-face interaction to uncover information about another person: questions, self-disclosures(自我表露)， and so on.Getting to know someone is a never-ending task, largely because people are constantly changing and the methods we use to obtain information are often imprecise. You may have known someone for ten years and still know very little about him. If we accept the idea that we wont ever fully know another person, it enables us to deal more easily with those things that get in the way of accurate knowledge such as secrets and description. It will also keep us from being too surprised or shocked by seemingly inconsistent(前后不一致) behavior. Ironically (讽刺性的) those things that keep us from knowing another person too well (e.g., secrets and deceptions) may be just as important to the development of satisfying relationship as those things that enables us to obtain accurate knowledge about a person (e.g., disclosure and truthful statements.)29. The word “pinpoint” (in 1st para) is closest in meaning to _. A. appreciate B. obtainC. identifyD. interpret30. What do we learn from the first paragraph? A. People like to be described in cold, objective words. B. It is impossible to get inside of a person. C. It is difficult to describe a person in words. D. Getting to know a person is usually no easy job.31. It can be inferred from Bergers suggestions that _. A. people do not reveal their true self on every occasion B. the best way to know a person is by making comparisons C. in most cases we should avoid contacting the observed person directly D. faceto-face interaction is the best strategy to uncover information about a person32. The authors purpose in writing the passage is to _. A. provide ways of how to obtain information about people B. discuss the various aspects of getting to know people C. warn readers of the negative side of peoples characters D. give advice on appropriate behaviors for social occasions D Technology is the application of knowledge to production. Thanks to modern technology, we have been able to increase greatly the efficiency of our work force. New machines and new methods have helped cut down time and expense while increasing overall output. This has meant more production and a higher standard of living. For most of us in America, modern technology is thought of as the reason why we can have cars and television sets. However, technology has also increased the amount of food available to us, by means of modern farming machinery and animal breeding techniques, and has extended our life span via medical technology. Will mankind continue to live longer and have a higher quality of life? In large measure the answer depends on technology and our ability to use it widely. If we keep making progress as we have over the past fifty years, the answer is definitely yes. The advancement of technology depends upon research and development, and the latest statistics show that the United States is continuing to pump billions of dollars annually into such efforts. So while we are running out of some scarce resources we may well find technological substitutes for many of them through our research programs.Therefore, in the final analysis the three major factors of production(land, labor and capital) are all influenced by technology. When we need new skills, on techniques in medicine, people will start developing new technology to meet those needs. As equipment proves to be slow or inefficient, new machines will be invented. Technology responds to our needs in helping us maintain our standard of living.33. What is the best title for the passage? A. Modern technology B. The definition of technology C. The application of technology D. The development of technology34. Which is the main idea of the passage? A. The three major factors of production (land, labor and capital) are all influenced by technology. B. Modern technology is the key to the improvement of standard of living. C. Technology is the response to our needs. D. The United States is making great efforts to advance its technology. 35. According to the passage, people can live a long life with the help of _. A. medical technology B. higher quality of life C. modern farming machinery D. technological substitute 第二节 （共5小题；每小题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。选项中的两项为多余选项。Most of you love watching movies.
