a. praise b. punishc. play with d. laugh at46. when pets do something wrong, you should_.a. punish them severely at once b. just pretend to take no noticec. shout at them to make them calm downd. hit them in a gentle way47. the passage mainly tells us_. a. to hit and shout at petsb. to always reward a pets behaviorc. never to punish pets whatever they do d. to train pets in a humane waycthis time, it is to be worn on wrists(手腕). having already changed the way we communicate with its smartphones, apple inc released its next big thing on march 9 in san francisco, us.the apple watch, according to cnn, is “a simple rectangular (矩形的) shape with a range of stylish and useful wristbands.” “the style is classic . in those respects (方面) its up there with the top quality swiss watches,” commented the news outlet.the watch will be available in nine places, including the us, the uk and china, from april 24. the starting price is $349 (2,186 yuan).with six different designs and 30 or so wristbands, the gadget “sets the standard for smartwatches, in style,” agreed the brisbane times,“ but more importantly, in functionality (功能性).” “with the built-in speaker and microphone, you can receive calls on your watch. i have been wanting to do this since i was 5 years old,” said apples chief executive tim cook. in fact, anything you can do on the iphone is there on the watch e-mails, text messages, airline boarding services, and directions from apple maps. using a home security app (应用程序), you can keep an eye on your home from afar, or even open a locked door.there are some features that have made cook sure the watch is “our most personal device yet; a new chapter in the way we relate to technology”. according to npr, the watch taps you on the wrist to draw your attention to a message or a calendar reminder, and it can send a tap on the wrist to another apple watch wearer.patrick moorhead, a leading technology analyst in the us, described the tech company as “a master in the art of persuasion”. “the secret weapon is the ability to message each other by tapping on the watch,” he told the associated press. “i think people, particularly kids, are going to go nuts (疯狂) over that.”so far, though, the most impressive part of this new device is “the monitoring of the wearers health and fitness,” said afp. it will even tap you on the wrist if you have been sitting down for longer than is good for your health.48. according to the passage, the apple watch has the following functions except _. a. being a top quality swiss watch b. receiving calls and messages c. monitoring the wearers health d. downloading apple apps49. which of the following words best describes tim cooks attitude toward the apple watch?a. changing. b. proud. c. uncaring. d. doubtful.50. which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
