Id left work early in the morning to cash a cheque. I walked along to the bank, and found that there werent too many people about ten or eleven customers in there, which was pretty unusual for those central city banks. I waited until it was my turn and just went up to the desk and started to talk to the bank clerk. He had a really strange expression on his face - just sort of blank stare at least I thought he was looking at me and then I realized he was staring over my shoulder. I began to turn round to see what he was looking at. At the same moment the outside bank guard came flying through the door and lay face down on the floor and following him through the door were three frightening masked men. They were carrying guns; at least I think the one in front was carrying a gun. Whether or not they said anything at that point I cant remember to this day, or whether people just automatically put their hands up Ive just no idea. For a few moments there was just total silence, suddenly broken by the telephone ringing and I remember thinking and wondering who was on the other end of the telephone. Nobody went to answer the telephone, so this thing just kept on ringing and ringing. Then two of the masked men went to the counter, jumped over it and got the cashiers and the bank clerks to start filling the bags with cash. While the two were getting the money, the one at the door who was covering us with the gun was a bit frightened. He started swearing at them, and telling them to hurry up, to get a move on. They jumped back over the counter. One of them slipped as he landed on the floor and fell over and the other two swore at him again. They left through the door. Warning us, “Dont move, stay like that with your hands up for ten minutes.” And then they just disappeared. Again back to total silence. People put their hands down, I put my hands down but I just stayed exactly where I was.56. What does the writer mean by saying “a pretty unusual number for those central banks” in the first paragraph?A. More customers than usual were staying in the bank.B. Less bank clerks than expected were in the bank.C. There were often more than a dozen customers in the bank.D. More banks should be open to serve customers in the city center.57. The bank clerk wore a blank expression on his face probably because _.A. he was feeling upset at that moment B. he felt puzzled and sensed something terribleC. he was required to keep silence D. he was threatened with a gun by robbers58. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. The customers didnt wait in line but jumped the queue because of the confusion.B. All the people in the bank except the writer put their hands up automatically.C. Nobody answered the phone because all the clerks were busy with work.D. the bank workers were forced to fill the robbers bags with cash.59. Whats the best title of this passage?A. A Street Gang B. A Strange Bank C. A Bank Robbery D. A Horrible AdventureBWinter depression （or winter blues）is a common suffering for those who live in our northern climate. Its clinical name is seasonal affective disorder（SAD）and up to 5 of the population（especially in northern states）may suffer from it. SAD is characterized by（其特点是）feelings of sadness and depression that occur in the winter months when the temperature drops and the days grow short. The depression is often associated with excessive eating or sleeping and weight gain. Women are twice to three times more likely to suffer from the winter depression than men.There are many effective treatments for winter depression, some of which you can do to help yourself. Increasing your daily exposure to as much natural light as possible can be helpful to many. Any time that you have the opportunity to gain access to more sunlight in the winter months, you should try to do so. Taking walks throughout the day（even if you dont normally do so）, sitting next to a south-facing window at your office, in a classroom, or at home will increase your sunlight exposure. Exercising next to a window or outdoors when possible is another activity that can help. Although it may be difficult to do, maintaining your schedule and lifestyle will help to keep the depression at bay. A regular pattern of sleep is the most important thing to maintain. It may be helpful, for example, to have your bedroom lights on a timer to turn on a half-hour before you wake. This may help in waking at a regular time every morning, when it is still dark outside in the winter months. Light treatment has shown to be effective for seasonal affective disorder. While you can buy expensive and specialized light treatment lighting fixtures for your home or office, some inexpensive alternatives are also available. Another lighting technique to try is to replace commonly used light bulbs in your home with brighter full spectrum（also known as broad spectrum）light bulbs. While more expensive than regular light bulbs, these bulbs provide light that is similar to natural sunlight. If none of these techniques seem to help your depressive symptoms, you should consider consulting a doctor or a mental health professional. The winter blues are a form of depression and can be readily treated with medicine or psychotherapy （心理疗法）when other self-help methods arent effective. Dont be afraid to talk about this condition with a professional; its nothing to be ashamed or afraid of. With a little effort, the winter blues can be beaten.60. What do we know about winter depression according to the passage?A. It is very common where the weather is cool. B. It may lead to weight gain.C. It always occurs in southern states. D. It seldom affects men.61. What is the most important factor in the treatment introduced in the second paragraph?A. Exposure to natural light. B. Sports in winter months.C. Outdoor activities. D. Exercising indoors.62. For winter depression, light treatment _.A. is much more difficult than other kinds of therapyB. is so expensive that some may not be able to afford itC. encourages people to do indoor exercises D. needs specialized bulbs to replace ordinary ones63. We can infer from the passage that _.A. self-help methods do not work completely B. psychotherapy is much more effective than medicineC. mental health professionals dont recommend self-help methodsD. most people prefer self-help methods to medicationsCChildren of all ages love birthday parties at the Staten Island Zoo.

Schools have made progress by making use of computers and PDAs in the classroom, yet one design company believes that changes are needed, so they describe what a future classroom may look like. “Kids are being taught to sit at these wooden desks that are basically designed for writing,” said Mark Dziersk, the senior vice president of the design. “Theyre being lectured in a structured environment.” The solution is a “customizable（按顾主的意思制造的）education system” called Gooru that reorganizes the classroom and replaces books, desks, pens, and so on. The three-part technology system consists of an interactive PDA called the GooBall, a backpack and a removable LCD screen for each student. Students can Sit, stand or lie down when using the devices, and are not limited to desks.The idea was presented at last months South by Southwest Interactive Conference. While some educators think the idea is interesting, they doubt whether schools will pay for the expensive and complicated system.The GooBall is a co-operative communication device with six layers of learning software. The device monitors a students heart rate and body temperature and uses GPS（Global Position System）to track where they are. It includes instant messaging, a compass, a watch, and a topic-specific quick-thinking system that directs a student to related articles and books about whatever they are studying. Students can also choose an animal painting to show their personality. The backpack provides the main power supply for the system and holds some personal items. The pocket keeps items locked tight with a fingerprint security zipper. The portable screen functions like a laptop, providing wireless Internet access and streaming video. It also has a touch screen surface.“I think its an excellent idea,” said Gary Tankard, a sixth-grader who has seen the prototype（原型）. “Im sure that 90 percent of kids would really like to have it.”68. The purpose of writing the passage is _.A. to introduce an advanced education system B. to advocate reforming the environment in schoolsC. to suggest that students are not studying in the traditional wayD. to advertise for the interactive communication69. From the passage we can infer that _.A. students must use the mouse to operate the device B. students dont need a key to open the deviceC. the device is very cheap to buy D. the device will be widely used in schools70. What can the GooBall do?A. It tests a students physical condition. B. It plays the role of a lapt
