I sorted all the necessary paperwork out and moved into a flat of my own within the first couple of days. Great, or so I thought. At 4 am and at several intervals after that, I was rudely awoken by the cock that lives opposite me. Fantastic! I now have 5 extra alarms every morning.In the following weeks, I also started to notice a trend. Things in my flat started to break at the rate of one object per day, like the hot water line, bowls, cups, the shower, doors or glass shelves. Yes, I am clumsy but things just fell apart. If it wasnt broken, it would either be dirty or missing. Using my washing basket for the first time was pretty disgusting. When I took out my clothes, they were swiftly followed by a hundred or so bugs that were living in the bottom.As for the general lack of equipment in the house, there was no oven, tin opener, sharp knives or potato peeler. It turned out making a burger from scratch wasnt the best idea. I had a small microwave and a grill. I thought the general understanding was never to put metal in a microwave but I went on. Smoke soon started to appear. I was not quite sure if it was the burger or the grill but as soon as I opened the door, the electricity cut out. I spent the following 10 minutes in a dark, smoky room hunting for the power switch using the light from my mobile phone, which broke the week after and left me without a connection to the outer world.Luckily, Im now borrowing a phone and my luck has returned. No more things have broken (probably because there is nothing left to break). Ive also realized that even if a flat looks pretty, it doesnt mean its contents work.

She put on the brake, stopping the car just in time. But later, she started texting. Distracted, Amanda turned left and right, then crashed into another car. Luckily, she wasnt in a real carshe was in a driving simulator(模拟器) at Roosevelt High School, Ohio, US.“I never really realized that cars make a turn that much，” Amanda, a junior, said. She added that she wouldnt text while driving anymore.The Ohio Department of Transportation(ODOT) and Ohio State Highway Patrol brought the simulator to the school. They said they wanted to help students learn about the danger of driving while drunk, texting, or talking on the phone.According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, distracted driving claimed 3，450 lives in 2016 alone. Experts believe the actual figure is probably higher.The simulator is basically a computer program. Like many computer games, it was a hit with the students. They lined up and crowded around to watch each other take turns. The simulator has a steering wheel(方向盘), brake and gas pedal(油门). It is made up of three large computer screens on a table.Students choose a distraction, such as driving while drunk or texting. They always crash, of course. Then, they are pulled over by the police to be taught the bad results of their driving：how much damage theyve caused, what their fine is, if anyone died in the accident, and if theyre going to go to prison.“It teaches how to drive without being on the road，” said Shante Thompson, 16. She had just crashed into a deer.ODOT spokesman Justin Chesnic said hundreds of kids have gone behind the wheel so far. He said even more have benefited from watching their classmates.“Driving is such a major responsibility, so take it seriously，” he said.“Put away your cellphone. A lot of the accidents out there are because of distracted driving. It can not only change your life, but change someone elses life forever. The results are serious.”【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一个驾驶模拟器，学生通过操作这个驾驶模拟器可以增强交通安全意识。5What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 1?AIntroduce the topic of the text.BIllustrate the authors point of view.CProvide some advice for the readers.DOffer some background information.A推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章第一段讲述了一个事例，然后通过这个事例引出了本文的话题，即driving simulator。由此可推知，作者写第一段的目的是引出文章的主题。6Why is the driving simulator project introduced to Roosevelt High School?AIt tests the students ability to stay focused.BIt gets students to have fun between classes.CIt teaches students how to deal with traffic accidents.DIt makes students aware of the dangers of distracted driving.D细节理解题。根据第二段中的“They said they wanted to help students learn about the danger of driving while drunk, texting, or talking on the phone”可知，他们想要帮助学生了解驾车时醉酒、发短信或者打电话的危害，故选D。7What can we know about the driving simulator?AIt is connected to the local police station.BIt is a real car but has large computer screens.CIt attracts the students interest as a computer program.DIt benefits the students who use it more than those who only watch.C细节理解题。根据第四段的描述，尤其是“The simulator is basically a computer program.
