选出最佳选项 并在答题卡上将 该项涂黑 A The Doll and the White Rose I was walking around in a mall when I saw a cashier hand this little boy some money back The cashier said I m sorry but you don t have enough money to buy this doll The little boy seemed very disappointed I walked toward him and asked him who he wished to give this doll to It s the doll that my sister wanted so much for Christmas She was sure that Santa Claus would 5 bring it to her But Santa Claus can t bring it to her where she is now I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she goes there His eyes were so sad My sister has gone to be with God Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister My heart nearly stopped The little boy looked up at me and continued I told Daddy to tell Mommy not to go yet I need her to wait until I come back from the mall I quickly reached for my wallet and said Suppose we check again just in case you do have enough money for the doll OK I hope I do have enough he said I put some of my money with his without him seeing and we started to count it There was enough for the doll and even some spare money Surprisingly the little boy cried Thank you God for giving me enough money Then he looked at me and added I asked last night before I went to sleep for God to make sure I had enough money to buy this doll so that Mommy could give it to my sister He heard me I also wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my mommy but I didn t dare to ask God for too much But he gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose Then I remembered two days before a local newspaper reported an accident in which a woman and a little girl were badly injured The little girl died right away and the mother was left in a critical state Was this the family of the little boy Two days after I met the little boy I read in the newspaper that the woman had passed away I couldn t stop myself from going to the funeral Teary eyed I felt that my life had been changed forever 56 The boy wanted to buy the doll because A he had always been eager for such a doll B Santa Claus didn t give him any Christmas gift C he would give it to his mother as a birthday surprise D he wanted to turn his sister s Christmas wish into reality 57 We can learn from the story that A the boy s sister died after staying in hospital for two weeks B the boy s family were all seriously injured in a car accident C the author gave the boy some extra money without his notice D the boy s mother always wished to receive a white rose on Christmas 58 The story most probably conveys the message that A a kind act can bring joy and hope to others B a gift is a perfect way to express love for others C losing a family member is a heavy blow to children D a religious belief can help one solve problems in his life B Panopticon is a place in which everything is in full view of others A recent New York Times House and Home article featured the story of a man who lives in a glass house Every wall in his home is transparent he has no walls to hide behind not even in the bathroom Of course he lives in a remote area where he doesn t exactly have neighbors looking in and watching his every move But he has 6 chosen to live without any physical privacy in a home that allows every action to be seen He has created his own panopticon of sorts The term panopticon was coined by Jeremy Bentham in the late eighteenth century when he was describing an idea for how prisons should be designed The prisoners cells would be placed in a circle with a guard tower in the middle All walls facing the center of the circle would be glass In that way every prisoner s cell would be in full view of the guards The prisoners could do nothing unobserved but the prisoners would not be able to see the guard tower They would know they were being watched or rather they would know that they could be being watched but because they could not see the observer they would never know when the guard was actually monitoring their actions Similarly it is common that people behave differently when they know they are being watched We act differently when we know someone is looking we act differently when we think someone else might be looking In these situations we are less likely to be ourselves instead we will act the way we think we should act when we are being observed by others In our wired society many talk of the panopticon as a metaphor 隐喻 for the future But in many ways the panopticon is already here Monitoring cameras are everywhere and we often don t even know our actions are being recorded In addition we leave a record of everything we do online And most of us have no idea just how much information about us has been recorded and how much data is available to various sources We can do little to stop the information gathering and exchange and can only hope to be able to control the damage if something goes wrong 59 According to the passage a panopticon is A a prison cell B a house that is transparent C a tower that provides a broad view D a place where everything can be seen by others 60 From Paragraph 3 we learn that panopticon A is not applicable outside the prison B is used everywhere in public places C is an effective tool to control prisoners D is an effective tool to share information 61 Why does the author say that panopticon is already here A Because our privacy is completely transparent B Because we are all prisoners m our own homes C Because our actions are observed and recorded in many cases D Because we are always afraid that someone might be watching us 62 A key difference between prison panopticon and panopticon in our daily life is that A prisoners can see their observers but we can t B prisoners know that they may be being watched but we often don t C prisoners are more protected in their panopticon than we are in ours D prisoners are less observed about privacy issues than technology users C I want to talk about the economy Not the economy we hear about endlessly in 7 the news each day and in politicians speeches I want to talk about the real economy the one we live in day by day Most people aren t particularly interested in the economy Share prices are flying high interest rates are soaring the Dow Jones Index closed sixty three points down on 8472 35 We hear this and subconsciously switch off Notice that the economy is not the same as the economy The economy is what men in suits play with to make vast personal wealth The economy is where the rest of us live on a daily basis earning our living paying our taxes and purchasing the necessities of life We are supposed to be benefiting from all the advantages of a well off society So why do we feel tired and stressed We have no time for anything other than work which is ridiculous given the number of labor saving devices in our lives Our towns become more and more crowded We poison our air and seas and our food is full of chemicals There s something wrong here If times were truly good then you may think we d all feel optimistic about the future Yet the majority of us are deeply worried More than 90 percent of us think we are too concerned about ourselves and not concerned enough about future generations The term economic expansion suggests something desirable but expansion simply means spending more money More spending doesn t mean that life is getting better We all know it often means the opposite greed crime poverty pollution More spending merely feeds our whole economic system which is based on production and consumption Unless money keeps circulating the economy breaks down If we don t keep consuming the whole system goes into stalemate 僵局 How do we break the cycle and make some changes We need to become far more aware of the results of our actions We buy clothes that are made in sweat shops by virtual slaves in poor parts of the world We create mountains of waste We demand cheap food mindless of the fact that it totally lacks taste and is produced using chemicals that poison the land The consumption culture makes us unaware of the effect of our own behavior Our main problem is not that we don t know what to do about it It is gathering the desire to do it 63 According to the author which one belongs to the real economy A The Dow Jones Index B Increases in interest rates C Skyrocketing share prices D Shopping in a supermarket 64 It can be concluded from Paragraph 4 that A people are benefiting from a well off society B the future generation is a big concern for most people C the majority of people are optimistic about the future D people still feel much pressure despite labor saving devices 65 What is true about economic expansion A It guarantees a better life for us B It may lead to some social problems C It will stop the circulation of money D It has only brought desirable effects 8 66 The author writes the passage mainly to A call on us to change our behavior B suggest a solution for over consumption C make a distinction between two economies D inform us of the effects of economic expansion D You Are What You Eat Genetic 基因的 engineering is the scientific change of the genetic material in a living organism It allows scientists to identify specific genes to remove them from an organism s chromosomes 染色体 improve them analyze them and possibly clone them and to then reinsert the changed gene into the original organism or a completely different organism Unlike traditional breeding 繁殖 where a desired quality would be bred within the same species genetic engineering can insert desired ones into organisms of different species Wow Did you catch that Genetic engineering creates many positive contributions to agriculture For example by genetically engineered GE foods anti cancer agents minerals and vitamins can be increased Improved taste shelf life and better transport are all possible Also GE plants can increase pest and bacterial resistance therefore making the food safe for consumers But some argue that the possible negative effects outweigh the positives and critics are starting to voice their concerns Unlike Europe in the United States labeling is not required on genetically engineered foods or on foods that contain genetically engineered products Most Americans do not realize that they are in fact eating GE foods The public is also concerned about the unknown health risks With limited understanding of genes scientists cannot predict possible effects Because most genes introduced into GE plants come from sources not introduced into the human body it is impossible to know if they will cause
