You can order a bike through an app on your phone. When you find a bike, you just scan a QR code (扫描二维码) on the bike so you can use it. You dont need to return the bike to a station you can park it anywhere.China was known as “the kingdom of bicycles” about 30 years ago. But more people choose to drive cars and catch the subway these days. Bike rental (租赁的) services like Mobike are bringing bikes back.“Back then, I got the feeling that Chinese people were trying to be modern and push away the past. So they did not want to be linked with bicycles,” said Ines Brunn, a German woman who runs a bike store in Beijing. “I do believe changes in peoples tastes will shape new thinking about bikes.”Online rental services are making biking more convenient, but its still not easy to ride bikes in Chinese cities. Cars often take up bicycle lanes (道路). Bikers have to ride next to cars in car lanes, which can be very dangerous.Beijing plans to build over 3,200 km of new bike lanes. Drivers who drive in bike lanes will be punished. Traffic signs will be put up to better protect bikers.30 .

How will Beijing stop cars from taking up bicycle lanes? People will not be allowed to ride bikes next to cars. Beijing will build new bike lanes. Beijing will punish drivers who drive in bike lanes. Beijing will put up traffic signs to protect bikers.ABCD34 . Which is the best title for the story?AHow to use a MobikeBOrange bikes will be fashionableCBringing back bikesDWhy is Beijing building new bike lanes?Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched? You turned around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!Parapsychologists (灵学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a “sixth sense” really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist (心理学家) at the University of Kentucky, did two experiments.In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects（受试者）were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later, when he questioned the subjects, almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.来源:学&For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they were being stared at and when they werent. Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they werent.Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when theyre being stared at. If people doubt the of his two experiments, said Baker, “I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”35 . 36 . Whats the aim of the two experiments for?AProve why humans have a sixth sense.BExplain when people can have a sixth sense.CShow how people act while being watched in the lab.DStudy whether humans can sense when they are stared at.37 . 38 .

What can we learn from the passage?APeople are born with a sixth sense.BThe experiments support parapsychologistsidea.CThe subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.DPeople have a sixth sense in all places.四、用所给单词的正确形式填空用括号中所给单词的适当形式填空45 .

This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.The origin of the eastern cultures is mainly from two countries: China and India. Both of the two cultures are started by rivers. In China, the mother river is the Yellow River while the Indian one is the Hindu River. These two cultures were developed for several thousand years and formed their own styles. Then in Tang Dynasty of China, the Chinese culture gradually went overseas to Japan, mixed into the Japanese society and shaped the Japanese culture nowadays. Though a bit different from the Chinese one, it belongs to the same system.When the two mother rivers gave birth to the eastern culture, another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian Plainthe Mesopotamian Civilization. This civilization later on developed into the culture of the Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. And these two are well-known as the base of the European culture. Like the Chinese culture, the European one also crossed waters. When the colonists（殖民者）of England settled down in America, their culture went with them over the Atlantic Ocean. So the American culture doesnt differ from the European one a lot.At the same time, the difference of the language system adds to the cultural differences. In the East, most languages belong to the pictographi
