She designed a special tool you could twist in two directions at once, and still keep your hands clean and dry. She set out to sell it, first a few at flea markers.Then Mangano met with the media. But would couch potatoes (电视迷）buy a mop? The experts on shopping TV were less than certain. They gave it a try, and it failed. Mangano was sure it would sell if theyd let her do the on-camera display.

Airline pilots can also use it to reduce the 30% of all pilot-error accidents that are related to fatigue.Driver Alert is based on a computerized wristband (腕带）.The device, worn by drivers or pilots gives out a sound about every four minutes during a car journey. After each sound the driver must respond by squeezing the steering wheel (方向盘). A sensor in the wristband detects this pressing action and measures the time between the sound and the drivers response Tiredness is directly related to a drivers response time. Usually, a watchful driver would use about 400 milliseconds to respond, but once that falls to more than 500 milliseconds, it suggests that the driver is getting sleepy.In such cases the device gives out more regular and louder sounds, showing that the driver should open a window or stop for a rest. If the drivers response continues to slow down, the sounds become more frequent until a nonstop alarm warns that the driver must stop as soon as possible.The device has been delivered to the departments laboratories for testing. If these tests, scheduled for six months time, are successful, the makers will bring the product to market within about a year.8. Driver Alert is a device that can .A. keep drivers asleep.B. change drivers response accuracy.C. reduce the possibility of accidents.D. protect drivers when accidents happen9.

What do we know about Driver Alert?A. It must be fixed on the drivers cars.B. It aims to prevent drivers from sleeping.C. It has gone through testing at laboratories.D. It isnt available to drivers at the moment.【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11. D【解析】在本文中作者介绍了一种新发明的、叫driver Alert的汽车装置，这种装置每四分钟发出一次声音，司机要通过按压方向盘来对此回应，以表明司机没有困倦，如果反应超过标准的时间，则说明司机疲劳驾驶，需要停车休息。这种装置目前正处于试验阶段，据说能减少20%-40%因疲劳而造成的意外。8. C细节理解题。根据第二段第一句The system, called Driver Alert, aims to reduce deadly road accidents by 20% 40% that are caused by tiredness.可知Driver Alert是为了减少事故的可能。故选C。9.

C推理判断题。根据Driver Alert is based on a computerized wristband (腕带）.The device, worn by drivers or pilots gives out a sound about every four minutes during a car journey.

D推理判断题。根据最后一段The device has been delivered to the departments laboratories for testing. If these tests, scheduled for six months time, are successful, the makers will bring the product to market within about a year.可知，Driver Alert目前还在测试中，司机还不能使用。故选D。DConventional wisdom says that hardship can make us old before our time. In fact, a new study suggests that violence not only leaves long-term scars on childrens bodies, but also changes their DNA, causing changes that are equal to seven to ten years of premature aging.Scientists measured this by studying the ends of childrens chromosomes (染色体）, called telomeres(端粒), says Idan Shalev, lead author of a study published in Molecular Psychiatry.Telomeres are special DNA sequences (序列）which prevent the DNA in chromosomes from separating. They get shorter each time a cell divides, until a cell cannot divide any more and dies.Several factors have been found to shorten telomeres, including smoking, radiation and psychological stresses such as being treated badly when young and taking care of a chronically ill person.In this study, researchers examined whether exposure to violence could make childrens telomeres shorten faster than normal. They interviewed the mothers of 236 children 3t ages 5, 7 and 10, asking whether the youngsters had been exposed to domestic violence between the mother and her partner; physical maltreatment by an adult; or bullying. Researchers measured the childrens telomeres in cells obtained by wiping the insides of their cheeks一at ages 5 and 10.Telomeres shortened faster in kids exposed to two or more types of violence, says Shalev. Unless that pattern changes, the study suggests, these kids could be expected to develop diseases of aging, such as heart attacks or memory loss, seven to 10 years earlier than their peers.Shlev says there is hope for these kids. His study found that, in rare cases, telomeres Better nutrition, exercise and stress reduction are three things that may be able to lengthen telomeres, he says.The study confirms a small but growing number of studies suggesting that early childhood adversity imprints itself in our chromosomes, says Charles Nelson, a professor of pediatrics and neuroscience at Harvard Medical School.12. The new study found that .A. hardship can change a childs memoryB. violence can speed up a childs agingC. violence leaves scars on a child s mindD. hardship has an effect on a childs mind13. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Telomeres. B. Children.C. Chromosomes. D. DNA sequences.14. What can be inferred from the text?A. Violence can cause quick cell death in childrens body.B. Telomeres can help prevent chromosomes from separating.C. Children who have shorter telomeres have heart attacks later.D. Being treated badly will make a childs telomeres shorten faster.15. What is the best title for the text?A. Violence and TelomeresB. The Function of TelomeresC. Violence Makes Children AgingD. DNA Influences Childrens Growth【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. C【解析】文章主要叙述了一些发展中国家女孩受教育的现状以及给社会带来的不利影响，呼吁人们重视女孩的教育。12. B细节理解题。根据文章中的第一段In fact, a new study suggests that violence not only leaves long-term scars on children?s bodies, but also changes their DNA, causing changes that are equal to seven to ten years of premature aging.研究表明，暴力不仅可以影响孩子的身体，也能改变他们的DNA,也能导致改变同期年龄的老化。故选B。13. A14. D推理判断题。由第六段Telomeres shortened faster in kids exposed to two or more types of violence,在孩子两种或两种以上类型的暴力中，端粒会变短的速度更快。故选D。15. C主旨大意题，根据全文的内容可知，文章描述了主要说明暴力会加速DNA中端粒的变短而让孩子们提前衰老，而A项则很好地概括了文章大意，故选C。第二节：（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文的内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。Every boy and every girl expects their parents to give them more pocket money. _16_ One main purpose is to let kids learn how to manage their own money.
