It is showed the life expectancy(平均寿命) had been cut down by 5.5 years there. Researchers think that the heavy air pollution in China should be to blame(承担责任). Its really the truth. Our government has already done something. However, it doesnt seem to work so well.“Air pollution in China is doing harm to peoples health. The harm is much more serious than we can imagine,” said Chen Yuyu of Beijing University, one of researchers of this study.Dirty air brings serious problems in North China. In January this year, the air pollution was worse than that in other places. That was caused by rising temperature and waste gas(废气) from coal heating.Chinese government should strongly fight against air pollution. They should think of more proper ways to deal with the problem. People should be encouraged to take buses, ride bicycles or walk, instead of driving cars. The factories that pollute heavily should be closed.“We need to improve our environment, although it might be expensive. Protecting our environment means protecting ourselves,” Li Hongbin, another researcher of the study said.（1）The passage above may come from a(n) ?A . storyB . advertisementC . reportD . diary（2）Which of the following is Li Hongbins idea?A .

But in the future, most things in your home may be connected, as the so-called Internet of things is developing.The Internet of things may be coming sooner than you think. It is reported that during his speech earlier this year, Samsung CEO(首席执行官)BK Yoon spent a lot of time talking about the Internet of things. He said that five years from now，every Samsung product will be part of the Internet of things, whether its a washing machine or a vacuum cleaner(吸尘器).So,how do household(家用)objects that are part of Internet of things work? Well, think of a usual chair. When connected to the Internet, the chair warms up when it knows that the user has just walked into the room and is feeling cold.An Internet-connected camera, like a smart-home camera, could help people feel safer in their homes. It can recognize(识别)peoples faces, and even can see when someone passes by in the dark. Then it can send you a message on your smartphone to let you know whos there. If the person is someone you dont know, it can tell you that, too.But according to MIT Technology Review, whether companies are connecting dog food bowls or security(安全)systems to the Internet, there may be problems. For example,many early connected-home devices(装置)dont have much built-in security, which means they could be hacked(被黑客攻击)，In addition, it could be difficult to get these devices to work together because they are made by different companies. To fight this, many companies have joined the Open Interconnect Consortium, which had 45 members by late 2014.So, picture this: you walk in through the front door of your home. The temperature changes to make you feel comfortable after a long day at school. Your favorite music starts playing for you. Do you think that this would be a good thing? It may happen sooner than you think.（1）The Samsung CEOs speech is mentioned to prove that_.A . the Internet of things will appear in our daily life soonerB . Samsung has produced the Internet of things recentlyC . Samsung products have been part of the Internet of thingsD . he spent a lot of time talking about the Internet of things（2）We can infer(推断)from paragraphs 3 and 4 thatA . the chair can know whether the user feels cold or notB . a usual chair can warm up when it knows the user comes inC . an Internet-connected camera can be used to take photos in the houseD . an Internet-connected camera can be connected to the users smartphone（3）According to the passage, it is mentioned that_the temperature inside is neither too high nor too lowyour fridge provides the drinks for youthe chair warms up if you feel coldyour favourite music starts playingyour washing machine starts workingA . B . C . D . （4）Whats the problem about the Internet of things?A . Companies which produce connected-home devices havent joined together.B . Connected-home devices may not work together and can easily get hacked.C . Companies have difficulty connecting security system to the Internet.D . These new devices are produced by different companies.4. （8分）根据短文内容，选择正确答案。AMy family lives in London. In the morning, my father goes to work and we go to school.

Nearly every subject caught my attention. However, my favorite subject was science. I remembered on the first day our science teacher told us the sun was like a big fire ball.
