waving to me. i waited until he jumped into the cab. “ laguardia airport, please,” he said.as always, i wondered about my passenger. “ what do you do?” “ i am in the neurology department(神经内科) at the hospital.” for some unknown reason, i decided to ask for his help.“ could i ask a favor of you?” he didnt answer. “ i have a son, 16. hes doing well in school. he wants a job this summer. is there any possibility that you might get him a summer job?” after a pause, he said, “ the medical students have a research project. maybe he could fit in. have him send me his school records.” he searched his pocket and handed me a card.that evening, i pulled the card from my pocket. “ robbie,” i announced proudly, “ this could be a summer job for you. send him your school records.” he read it out loud, “ fred plum, new york hospital.” “ is this a joke?” he said in disbelief. after i shouted and threatened(恐吓) to cut off his pocket-money, robbie promised to send off his grades the next morning.two weeks later, when i arrived home, my son handed me a letter from plum. he was to phone plums secretary for an interview.robbie got the job. the white coat he wore made him feel more important than he really was. as high school graduation neared, plum was kind enough to write letters of recommendation(推荐) for universities. to our delight, robbie was admitted to new york medical college.it never

phones than on their drinks. according to a recent international data corporation study, over half of all americans have a smartphone and reach for it as soon as they wake up, keeping it in hand all day. in addition, too many people in society are using smartphones while driving and as a result, they get into car crashes. 34 percent of teenagers admit sending messages while driving, and they agree that sending messages is their number one driving interruption. peoples addiction(沉溺) to their smartphones is unbelievably becoming more important than the lives of themselves and others.just as drivers ignore the importance of focusing while on the road, many people also fail to recognize the importance of human communication. when with their friends, some people aimlessly check or send messages in front of a friend, which sends a message to that friend: the person i am texting is more important than you. in addition, relying on our smartphones to make friends does not give us the same advantage as being able to make new friendships in the real world. face-to-face conversations will give us much stronger communication skills in the long run.as many people risk their lives and the lives of people around them just to send a message or mindlessly check their messages, smartphones are in many ways more dangerous to people. the quality of this technology is preventing societal achievements and weakening the value of communication. not only is the smartphone affecting our desire to communicate face to face, but it is also lowering societys ability to communicate.29. the purpose of the passage is to . a. call for an end to use the smartphone while driving b. tell us to pay attention to communication skills c. express a concern about the overuse of the smartphone d. advise us to be careful about the addiction to face-to-face communication.30. the second paragraph is developed by . a. giving examples b. time order. c. comparing facts d. analyzing the effects31. the author advises us to make new friends . a. by using smartphones b. in a face-to-face way c. in different ways d. by writing letters.32. over-dependence on the smartphone leads to the fact that . a. parties and gathering limit their social circle. b. people are more and more easy-going. c. peoples communication skills are weakened. d. face-to-face communication becomes more and more dangerous. d even if trees cannot walk, they are still on the move. in parts of the arctic, entire forests are moving northward. across the arctic, temperatures are rising faster than anywhere else in the world. as that happens, the tree line that marks where forests stop and the treeless tundra(冻原) starts has been moving northward. trees growing along the tree line must protect themselves from the cold wind. to do this, plants tend to grow horizontal(水平的) branches low to the ground. the energy it takes for trees to grow this way means they dont have enough energy to make seeds. but as earths climate has been warming, trees no longer have to just grow horizontally. many can instead grow up toward the sky. this takes less energy. this happens especially in places where white spruce(白云杉) grows. white spruce, which is a north american trees, is quite able to produce a lot of seeds, which can move long distances in the wind. when wind-blown seeds end up on the tundra beyond the tree line, they finally sprout(发芽) new trees. this explains how a forest can move. of course, the process would work only if the tundra were warm enough. but in recent years, the whole planet has been warming. new trees will provide shelter for some snow. keeping the suns rays from making the white surface disappear. instead, the trees absorb(吸收) the suns heat. this warms the air around. the extra warmth encourages even more trees to produce seeds. that further increases a forests ability to expand(扩展). whats more, more trees will trap more snow, preventing much of it from being blown away. snow can trap heat in the soil below, which encourages trees to grow. the recent rise of temperatures has helped more trees grow past the tree line. people worry about effects on the animals that depend on frozen conditions for food and shelter.33. what is the main cause of the trees in the arctic moving northward? a. the reducing of northern tundra. b. the rising temperature. c. the cold and strong wind. d. the rich resources in the north.34. what does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 2 mean? a. to produce more seeds. b. to move northward. c. to respond to the climate change. d. to protect themselves from the cold wind.35. what can be inferred from the last paragraph? a. new trees can trap the snow, which may make the soil colder. b. the trapped snow prevents new trees from producing more seeds. c. new trees can make the air around warmer. d. new trees can bring more food and shelter to local animals.第二节 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,

at the floor, the ceiling, anywhere but into the other persons eyes. looking directly at someone makes them see you in a different light. if they think you are confident, you will become more confident! if you find it really hard , at the very beginning, look just above the eyes, they will never know. 37 start a conversation with a new person every day. think of four or five things you could start a conversation with and then find at least one opportunity each day to talk to a new person. 38 just exchanging a few words will get you used to talking to new people and you can gradually deal with it well as your confidence grows. asking people something about themselves is often a good opener as it encourages them to talk! 39 your body language has a huge effect on both how you feel and how other people perceive(认为) you. walk around your home or garden as if you are the most important person in the world. then go out and continue that; you really are the most important person in
