But zoos that offer more than just a chance to see animals are worth visiting.Singapore ZooAt Singapore Zoo, enjoy breakfast while a family of orangutans (猩猩) sits nearby enjoying theirs.

They buy vast numbers of newspapers and magazines and even of booksespecially paperbacks, which are still comparatively cheap in spite of ever-increasing rises in the costs of printing. They still continue to buy proper books, too, printed on good paper and bound between hard covers.There are many streets in London containing shops which specialize in book-selling. Perhaps the best known of these is Charing Cross Road in the very heart of London. Here bookshops of all sorts and sizes are to be found, from the celebrated one which boasts of being the biggest bookshop in the world to the tiny, dusty little places which seem to have been left over from Dickens time. Some of these shops stock, or will obtain, any kind of book, but many of them specialize in second-hand books, in art books, in foreign books, in books on philosophy(哲学), politics or any other of the myriad subjects about which books may be written. One shop in this area specializes solely in books about ballet.Although it may be the most convenient place for Londoners to buy books, Charing Cross Road is not the cheapest. For the really cheap second-hand volumes, the collector must venture(冒险) off the beaten path, to Farringdon Road, for example, in the East Central district of London. Here there is nothing so grand as bookshops. Instead, the booksellers come along each morning and tip out their sacks of books on to small barrows(手推车) which line the gutters(贫民区). And the collectors, some professional and some amateur(业余爱好者)have been waiting for them. In places like this one can still, occasionally, pick up for a few pence an old volume that may be worth many pounds.24According to the passage, we can infer that _.ALondoners like borrowing books from librariesBLondoners like buying books, magazines and newspapersCLondoners like reading books in librariesDLondoners dont like buying proper books.25Charing Cross Road which is well-known for _ lies in the _ of London.Abookstores, East Central district Bpublishing houses, downtownCBookshops, center Dlibraries, countryside26The underlined word “solely” in the second paragraph means_.Awholly BpartlyCjointly Dseldom27The third paragraph mainly tells us _in London.Awhere to buy the dear new booksBwhere to buy the cheap new booksCwhere to buy the cheap second-hand booksDwhere to buy the dear second-hand booksCThe brain is a remarkable part.Its responsible for thoughts and feelings.Now a new study finds that going through tough times as a kid also can have an impact.The adult brains of people who lived through lots of stress before the age of sixand then became depressed or anxious as teenagerswere different compared with adults who had an easier childhood.It seems that teens changed the shape of their brains by internalizing (使内在化) the stresses experienced years earlier.Researchers already knew that the shape and size of a childs brain can change in response to lots of stress.They also knew that adults were more likely to be depressed if，as kids，theyd lived in poverty.Some studies showed that these depressed adults had unusual changes in their brain shape.But no one had tested if the early stress and later brain changes were linked.Scientists in England studied almost 500 boys from birth until the ages of 18 to 21.Sarah Jensen is one of the new studys authors.Almost all of the boys her team studied experienced some hard times as kids.And，she concludes，“This is not necessarily harmful.”To some extent，thats just life.What can be dangerous，she says，is when children experience too many forms of difficulties.Her teams new data suggest that the tougher the childhood，the stronger the impact on the brain might be.Whats happening in the world around us relates to how we feel.Her team linked more childhood stress to more depression.Still，she notes，its possible that if you find support for anxiety or depression，you might be able to prevent the changes seen here.“If you can change the environment，you can change the course of things，”Sarah says.So，she recommends，if teens develop anxiety or depression，its good to ask for psychological doctors to give advice.28When people had a hard childhood， Athey will have a brave attitude to lifeBtheir way of thinking may be strangeCthey will be good at dealing with stressDthe shape of their brain may be changed29What is the breakthrough of the new research?AThe size of the brain can change.BThe brain can be influenced by stress.CPoverty can affect the brains shape in future.DChanges in brain are connected with earlier hardship.30Its a problem when children Ahad a lonely childhoodBled a peaceful childhoodCgot different kinds of hardshipDexperienced limited hard times31For teenagers with anxiety，Sarah suggests .Athey adapt to their lifeBthey seek professional helpCthey talk to friends or relativesDthey become confident and optimisticDThey go up and they go down. They take people from one floor of a building to the exact same spot on another floor. A new technology will break elevators free from their vertical (垂直的) prisons, allowing them to move side to side, at an angle (角度), even go outside into a city. German company Thyssenkrupp has developed a new kind of elevator that uses maglev (磁悬浮) technology to move elevator cabins. Called Multi, these elevators are no longer limited to a single vertical path.A funny thing happens when elevators can go anywhere. Tall buildings, which are designed to work around elevators, can start taking on different shapes. They can go wide, add towers or go in unusual directions, and make room for green spaces that otherwise would have been an inconvenience. A single elevator can run from the east side of the first floor to the far west side of the 30th, no transferring or walking necessary. It gets even more interesting when an elevator leaves the building. Patrick Bass, Thyssenkrupps North America CEO, has worked in the elevator industry for 26 years. He thinks these elevators will create new transportation networks to support the cities of the future. As more people go into cities, theres a renewed interest in creating energy efficient spaces. Moving people around quickly is a huge part of that.He imagines Multi working perfectly with other Thyssenkrupp technology like the Accel moving walkway. Accel, which also uses maglev technology, speeds up after you step on and can go twice the speed of a regular moving walkway. It was the first use of maglev technology outside of a train. The Accel is already in use in some cities now.32. Compared with traditional elevators, Multi can _.A. go more smoothly B. go in any directionsC. go up and down freely D. go directly from floor to floor33. What will happen to buildings with Multi?A. They will hold more people.B. They will become much higher.C. They will be in different shapes.D. They will be connected to one another.34. In what way can Multi support cities of the future?A. They save space in cities.B. They help avoid the rush hours.C. They help people save money.D. They help move people around quickly.35. Why is the Accel mentioned in the last paragraph?A. To show how Multi works.B. To show the importance of the Accel.C. To tell us other products by Thyssenkrupp.D. To explain the wide use of maglev technology第二节：（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。How to Make a Chinese Hot PotEating a Chinese hot pot is a very common experience.
