the nearest atm to withdraw some cash. at shaftesbury avenue, i saw a huge queue for one atm machine, but no one was using the neighboring “hole in the wall”. assuming that the second machine was broken, i asked one queuing man if it was out of order. he replied, “its working, but this one pays out twenties for tenners!”so the reason for the weirdly long queue is that these folks wanted to “double their money” by getting 20 notes for each 10 note requested. being an honest man, i didnt hang about; i simply used the idle machine and walked off.last week, customers took similar advantage of commonwealth bank in sydney, australia. following overnight maintenance, a computer virus caused commbanks atms to fail to function properly and begin paying out extra money, with unrestricted withdrawals. they allowed customers with little or no cash in their accounts to withdraw large sums that they didnt have. after about 5 hours, commbank managed to restart these atms and stop the flood of cash.you stole your own cash!by withdrawing money they didnt have in their accounts, some of these greedy customers have gone heavily overdrawn. news reports indicate that some people were withdrawing as much as au$2,500 (1,563) in a single dealing.alas, both commbank and the new south wales police said that they will use atm records and cameras to track down those who took advantage of the error. as detective superintendent col dyson of the new south wales police department warned, “people should realise that they dont have the right to take that money and are committing a criminal offence if they keep it.”what about overpayments?what about when you key in a 20 withdrawal and you get two 20 notes, not two 10 notes?in english law (covering england and wales), you have the right to keep money paid to you in error “under mistake of fact”, but only if you honestly believe that the money is yours. however, if you requested 20, got 40 and 40 was allowed to be lent to you, then the cash is yours to keep, as neither you nor the bank has suffered any loss. 1. the words “hole in the wall” refer to _.a. a real hole in the wallb. another atmc. the mouth of a neighbourd. a common machine2. we learn from the passage that the writer _.a. saw a huge queue on his way to a party and joined themb. people queued up to withdraw money because the other atms were brokenc. had to use the unoccupied atm to get some cash because he was in a hurryd. was critical of what he saw when withdrawing cash from an atm3. according to the passage, _.a. last week, an atm in sydney, australia paid out au$10 for every request for au$20b. an atm in sydney, australia was paying out more money than asked for because the bank owner had lifted the restrictionc. the machine paid out more money than requested even when a person had no money in his accountd. some people have been arrested on charge of getting extra money in the two happenings4. from the part subtitled “what about overpayments?”, we can know _.a. some english laws dont cover all britain b. if the money you asked for was more than requested, youd always have to return the extra moneyc. if people kept the extra money they got at a bank they might pretend they did not know itd. people committed a crime by getting the extra money even if they had that much in their account【参考答案】14、bdca【山东省2014高考仿真模拟冲刺卷（5）】b完形填空。阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 streit was an experienced safecracker who never used forceeither against people or safeshe was

complain that for some reason it does not feel right to them. what i notice is that the design quite complicated. or, sometimes there is no real design and the layout (布局) just looks messy. creating a garden without some form of design is like trying to bake a cake without a recipe. with a cake you can add together ingredients (原料) from the cupboard and fridge in the hope that the result will be a perfectly baked cake. both creating a garden and baking a cake follow outlines for getting a result. know just when to add something, when to take the mix off the heat or how much oil to use, etc. an

the garden design simple you and your chosen designer will have created the structure of a garden, similar to the structure of a house together with some details. a golden rule to remember is that garden design is not about choosing the right plants. dont get caught up in the idea that you have to choose the right plants for the job straight away. plant choice comes almost at the last minute in many cases, after you and your designer have created style or feeling you are wanting to have in your garden. design is about creating a constructable (可构造的) image for the garden, including form and
