A
It's 10:30 pm, and 11-year-old Brandon Blanco is sound asleep at home. Suddenly, a loud noise
wakes him up. Naturally, Brandon reaches for his cell phone. The message becomes clear: "R U awake?"
Brandon' s use of technology doesn' t stop there. He also has a computer, a TV and three video-game consoles (控制臺 ) in his room. With so many choices, it' s no surprise that when he isn' t at school, he spends nearly every waking minute using one or more of these devices.
Brandon is hardly alone. According to a recent study by the Kaiser Family Foundation, kids aged 8 to18 are spending more time than ever before using electronic devices. How much time? More than seven and a half hours a day on average, th e study found.
The jump is the result of a huge explosion in mobile devices, says Victoria Rideout, the lead author of the study. Today, nearly seven out of ten kids have cell phones. Just five years ago, it was four out of ten.
Often, kids multitask, or use more than one device at a time. " If you’ve got a chance to do something on your computer and take a phone call and have the TV on in the background, why not?" media expert Cheryl Olson says.
Most experts agree technology has much to offer kids. But some worry the kids could be missing out on other activities like playing outside or hanging out with friends. " It' s a matter of balance," says Olson." You’ve got to work on it. "
Multitasking while doing homework is another concern. Some kids listen to music, watch TV or use the phone while doing their homework. "It' s important to make sure that you can stop and concentrate on one thing deeply, " says Rideout.
With new and exciting devices hitting stores every year, keeping technology use in check is more important than ever. " Kids should try," adds Rideout. " But parents might have to step in sometimes. "
56. Why do children spend more time in using electronic devices?
A. Because more electronic devices are available to them.
B. Because electronic devices are more exciting than before.
C. Because they have less other activities.

D. most experts think teenagers should not use electronic devices for their studies
58. Which of the following is an example of multitasking according to the passage?
A. Watching TV while using the computer.
B. Talking on the phone while staying with others.
C. Playing video games on the Internet.
D. Listening to music while relaxing.
59. According to the passage, Victoria Rideout would probably agree that ____.
A. kids should do homework while surfing the Internet
B. kids should do homework in a place without disturbance

40 years ago, the community of Seneca Falls, New York, decided to create a hall of fame for women. The town was the birthplace of the women' s rights movement.
In 1848, 300 women and men gathered in Seneca Falls for the first Women' s Rights Convention. Among them were feminist leaders Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott.
The delegates passed a declaration calling for voting rights for women, among other demands. 72 years later the nineteenth amendment to the United States Constitution gave women the right to vote.
In 1969, the people of Seneca Falls wanted to honor the women who took part in the struggle. So they established the National Women' s Hall of Fame. 10 years later, the group raised enough money to buy a historic bank building to house the Hall of Fame.
There are more than two hundred-women in the National Women' s Hall of Fame today. They include teachers, doctors, artists and athletes. There are also pilots, social activists, comedians, politicians, poets and builders.
The National Women' s Hall of Fame announced ten new members on March second to honor National Women' s History Month, who will be inducted into the Hall of Fame in October this year.
One of them is Louise Bourgeois, a 97 years old artist in New York City, whose best known works are huge sculptures of spiders. Her art has been exhibited in major museum collections around the world.
Another new member of the Hall of Fame has been fighting to help victims of abuse for more than 30 years. Growing up in a violent home, Susan Kelly-Dreiss started her career by helping to set up a shelter for abused women. Later she helped gain passage of the first law against domestic violence in the state of Pennsylvania. Now, Susan Kelly-Dreiss works on the issue at the national level.
Susan Solomon is an international leader in atmospheric science. She developed the theory explaining how and why the ozone (臭氧) hole happens over Antarctica. She also got some of the first chemical measurements that showed man-made chlorofluorocarbons ( 氯氟化碳) caused the hole. Susan Solomon served as one of the leaders of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. This group shared the Nobel Peace Prize with former American Vice-President Al Gore in 2007.
Other new members include Emma Lazarus, the great 19th century Jewish poet. Her famous poem is on the base of the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor. Scientist Mildred Cohen, whose biological research has won many awards including a National Medal of Science, will also be inducted into the National Women' s Hall of Fame.

The average area of glaciers ( 冰川 ) in Western China might shrink by about 30 percent by 2050 because of global warming, damaging crop production and worsening droughts. This dire prediction came Friday in a report released at the UN climate talks in north China' s Tianjin Municipality.
The " Climate Changes and Poverty---Case Study in China" report was jointly released by organizations including the Institute of Environment and Social and Sustainable Development in Agriculture with the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. Forecasts of glacier recession ( 衰退) patterns showed the average glacier area in western China might be reduced by 27. 2 percent by 2050, said the report. World ocean glaciers, affected by wet airflow from the ocean, would shrink by 52. 5 percent, and Asian continental glaciers, formed in the continental climate would shrink by 24. 4 percent.
The report warned that global warming would reduce the seasonal snowfall period while melting area would be higher, contributing to the sharp decline. Moreover, climate change would not relieve water shortages , but reduce river run-off by 20 to 40 percent in northwest China.
Glacier shrinkage would also threaten China' s agriculture sector.' The report warned that overall crop production capacity would drop by 5 percent to 10 percent by 2030 due to global warming, especially in wheat, rice and corn, and the impact would worsen after 2050.
The Chinese government had attached importance to tackling the problems caused by climate change and taken effective measures to reduce the negative impacts, said Sun Cuihua, an official with the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) , Friday at the climate talks.
After three rounds of talks this year, which are moving slowly towards a negotiating text for the Cancun meeting in Mexico at the end of the year, more than 3,000 delegates from 194 nations gathered in Tianjin from October 4 to 9 to accelerate the search for common ground.
However, the gap remains wide between the -developed and developing nations as the former remain cautious of green technology transfers and additional financing to poorer nations.
66. The underlined word "dire" in t he text probably means " _________ " .
A. encouraging B. serious C. touching D. interesting
67. Which of the following is NOT the possible result of global warming according to the text?

68. What effect will the glacier shrinkage have on agriculture?
A. A reduction in grain yield. B. An increase in production capacity.
C. Better production environment. D. Long growth periods for crops.
69. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
A. Because of glacier shrinkage, rivers often overflow their banks.
B. Climate change would ease water shortages in northwest China.
C. The Chinese government has found it significant to solve the problems.
D. World ocean glaciers would shrink much less than Asian continental glaciers.
70. What' s the best title of the text?
A. The bad results of glacier shrinkage

Gomes is now a university student in Maryland, but he may soon have to leave the country. " I still want to continue with my college education and I want to be able to study here and go to medical school," he said.
Gomes is one of thousands of young illegal immigrants who grew up in the United States and are now studying at American colleges and universities. He is doing well in his studies, but he is fighting deportation to India, a country he left with his parents when he was just 14 months old. They were deported more than a year ago.
" If I was to go back to India I would just feel like all of that would have gone to waste because here at least I am still able to go to college," he said.
Immigration is a divisive political issue in the United States with some 11 million people in the country illegally. One element of the debate is the hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants brought to the United States before the age of 16. Pending legislation known as the DREAM Act (移民法案) would give them a chance to become legal residents if they complete two years of college or join the military.
Milanie Schwartz, a politically conservative student at the University of Texas, explains why some Americans oppose the legislation.
" We think it' s unfair that students who are illegal immigrants would get a fast track to citizenship, while people who did come here legally wouldn' t have those same opportunities," she said.
" The question is legalization or not," said Jon Feere, who also opposes the DREAM Act. He is a policy analyst with the Center for Immigration Studies in Washington and is concerned about the act' s effect on the economy. " There' s a lot of unemployment in the United States right now. And there are already many legal immigrants who are already here who are desperate for those jobs," he said.
But supporters of the DRE AM Act say well-educated immigrants would help the economy. Raul Hinojosa is an immigration research analyst at UCLA. " Not letting them contribute to the economy would not only lose all the financial investment we have already made in these youths, but we would lose literally trillions of dollars of potential value because they want and are ready to contribute to the US economy," he said.
That' s exactly what Yves Gomes wants to do ?finish school and become a doctor. He says without the DREAM Act, many students' dreams will be lost. "They are studying at Harvard, they are studying at UCLA, the top universities , and they all have bright futures and because of the system they are going to be told to go home, go back to a country they don't even know," he said.
The DREAM Act has failed to win passage in Congress since it was first introduced 10 years ago. Now time is running out for passage this year, and opposition Republicans have threatened to block it. Gomes hopes that won't happen. He wants to finish school and eventually become a US citizen.
71. The passage mainly focuses on __
A. controversial viewpoints on the DREAM Act
B. the content of the DREAM Act
C. the necessity for the DREAM Act to get through
D. the possibility of the passage of the DREAM Act
72. Which of the following is in favor of the DREAM Act
A. Milanie Schwartz. B. Jon Feere. C. Raul Hinojosa. D. Republicans.
73. Which of the following descriptions about Yves Gomes is true?
A. He was born in India before his parents immigrated to America illegally.
B. His parents were forced to leave India more than a year ago.
C. He wants to finish school in America and become a nurse in India after graduation.
D. He is optimistic about the passage of the DREAM Act.
74. What can we conclude from the passage?
A. Not all the people approve of the passage of the DREAM Act.
B. The DREAM Act was abandoned in Congress ten years ago.
C. If the DREAM Act should win passage, all illegal immigrants would become US citizens.
D. Illegal immigrants are attached to their motherlands.
75. The author develops the passage mainly by ____.
A. giving explanations B. following the time order
C. comparing opinions from different sides D. presenting a cause and analyzing its effects

第一節(jié) 閱讀表達 （共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）
It's difficult enough to have privacy in a house, so privacy in a small dorm room is next to impossible. However, it can be done if both roommates are willing to cooperate.
Step 1 Tie a scarf to the outside doorknob as a symbol of Do Not Disturb, but be careful not to do this too consistently. Warn your roommate beforehand about possible days and times when this scarf will be on the door so your roommate will have time to make plans ahead of time instead of it being a surprise, especially if you plan to have an overnight guest. Be considerate if your roommate needs to get into the room regardless of the scarf on the door to get something out of the dorm because it is his dorm room too.
Step 2 If one roommate is a light sleeper and the other is a heavy sleeper, the heavy sleeper could consider an alternate way to wake himself up besides an alarm. Heavy sleepers tend to ignore alarms, but so metimes vibrating (震動的) cell phones feel like someone is shaking them. It is also a quieter way to not disturb the light sleeping roommate using a vibrating cell phone.
Step 3 Take cell phone calls outside of the room. Your roommate may not want to hear your conversation or you may want some privacy, but your roommate should not have to leave every time you have a phone call. The roommate who is not on the phone has no way of knowing how often you will have phone calls and should not be put out because you do.
Step 4 Ask if it' s okay to have a guest in the room. Although your roommate is not your parent, and you may feel like this is your room too, remember that ____. He may not want company when you do. If one roommate is more sociable than the other and guests become a repeated argument, consider asking the resident director if you can swap( 交換) roommate with someone else.
76. What does the passage mainly talk about? (no more than 10 words)
______________________________________________________________________
77. Complete the following statement with proper words, (no more than 6 words)
To avoid disturbing the light sleeper, _______________________ is also a good way.
