阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。Steven Spielbergs 2002 science-fiction thriller Minority Report produced a world where computers could read minds and predict the future. It seemed fanciful at the time, but fantasy is edging closer to fact.On Jan. 3l, a team of scientist sat the UC Berkeley, led by Robert Knight programmed computers to decode (解码) brain waves and replay them as words. Five months earlier, another group of Berkeley scientists showed their colleagues short movies and used computers to play back in color what people saw.These experiments are a big advance from 2006, when a French scientist first replayed images from a human mind, a black-and-white checkerboard pattern. The possibilities are great: a disabled person could “speak”； doctors could access the mind of a patient who fainted; you could rewatch your dreams on an iPad.There are, of course, equally dark side, such as the involuntary take out ofinformation from the brain.In spite of these breakthroughs,Jack Gallant, the neuroscientist who led the first Berkeley team, says current technology for decoding brain activity is still “relatively primitive.” The field is held back by its poor machinery, in particular the fMRI.“Eventually,” says Gallant,“someone will invent a decoding machine you can wear as a hat.” Such an advance into the human mind, he says, might take 30 years.Still, the recent advances at Berkeley offer small answers, which scientists can use to begin unlocking the secrets ofmemory and consciousness.l.

What did scientist sat the UC Berkeley do?A. They produced a fanciful world.B. They made computers jump forward like a human.C. They managed to translate brain waves into language.D.

Authorities at the best Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Mumbai said students had stopped socializing and many were late for morning classes or slept through them. Now, a student doesnt even know who lives two doors away from him because he is so busy on the Internet, said Prakash Gopalan, dean of student affairs. The old dormitory culture of companionship and socializing among students is gone. This is not healthy in our opinion. IIT-Mumbai, with about 5,000 students, is one of seven IITs across India which are considered to be among the finest engineering schools in the world. They are also a talent pool for global technology giants. But their hard courses, tough competition and lonely campus lifestyle have taken an effect on students. Depressive and dysfunctional (不正常的) lifestyles are known to be common among IIT students, and at least nine have committed suicide in the past five years. Students have unlimited free Internet access in their boarding houses to help them in their studies, but many also use it to surf, chat, download movies and music, blog and for gaming. Starting Monday, Internet access will be banned between 11 p.m. and 12.30 p.m. at IIT-Mumbais 13 boarding buildings to encourage students to sleep early and to try and force them out of their shells, Gopalan said. But the move has not gone down well with students who say they hate their lives being regulated. Now they will say we need to listen to a lullaby (摇篮曲) to go to sleep, said Rajiv, an electronics student.1Which of the following is not the possible effect of free Internet access on students?AThere has been a decline in students lessons.BParticipation in social activities has gone down. CSome students feel lonely and even suicidal.DStudents dont even know his classmates. 2What measure has been taken in IIT- Mumbai?AStudents have unlimited free Internet access in their dormitories.BStudents are forbidden to surf the Internet.CInternet access is unavailable in deep night. DStudents must go to bed before 11 p.m. 3In the passage the students are told to _. Asleep through their lessons Bbreak away from the InternetCgo to sleep along with music Dstop surfing, make friends4We may infer from the last paragraph that _. Athe banning order causes some complaints among the studentsBall electronics students hate the banning orderCmore students prefer listening to music to surfing the InternetDthere is no Internet access on the IIT campus even since【参考答案1-4】 DCDA 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。In our old neighborhood, neighbors chatted over fences.

We signed up for reading programs at the library and frequented parks and the bike path along the river. One afternoon Samuel and I clambered up the stairs to the library activity room.

Soon class was over, and we still had a lot to say. “Why dont you come over later?” Tammy asked. “I live on a farm. Theres plenty of room for the kids to run.” We went. And since that day, weve been back a million times. When I look back, Im grateful for that tough time. I learned to persevere. Im glad I didnt give up.

In Europe, some butterflies now live as much as one hundred kilometers to the north because of changes linked to higher temperatures.E. The new report says many areas experienced unusual weather in two thousand and two. Most of Asia, for example, was warmer than usual. India had unusually high temperatures in April and May.

Professors Parmesan and Yohe used similar methods to examine one hundred and seventy-two kinds of wildlife. They examined the timing of events in the spring, such as the appearance of flowers and the reproduction of animals. They found that these events happened an average of two days earlier than normal every ten years.50. They say illegal operations to remove trees are causing large areas of forest to disappear.
