五、阅读理解（共1题；共8分）
25.阅读理解
    A 27-year-old inventor, Joco Paulo Lammoglia, has come up with a new device named the AIRE mask, which is capable of converting the wind energy provided by the wearer's breath into electrical energy. This means breathing has become a source of renewable energy. The inspiration for the invention came from his watching children blowing on pinwheels (纸风车).
    The device is worn like a mask equipped with tiny wind turbines (涡轮) and it can work its magic even while people are sleeping, jogging or hanging around, since energy is created from one's breath. The principle of this AIRE mask is simple. The invention uses the wind flow created by breathing and changes it into energy that can charge mobile phones and iPods. Simply put this mask connected to your mobile phone on your face. The rest takes place naturally through your breath that provides power to run turbines which produce electricity.
    Lammoglia explained how useful he hopes the AIRE will become. He said, "I hope to bring the concept into production and reduce the carbon footprint. It can be used indoors or outdoors, while you're sleeping, walking, running or even reading books." Apart from saving energy and contributing to environmental protection, it also encourages the practice of physical exercise. This is an entirely all time renewable energy source. Its energy is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
    Lammoglia explained why he thought the AIRE was so useful, saying, "Though many of our modern devices offer benefits, they tend to consume a high amount of electrical energy. This may cause problems for the environment, especially if the energy used by these devices is obtained from non-renewable sources.
    The AIRE mask will be future's cheaper source of charging mobile phones. It would save energy and allow people to never have to worry about their phone dying unless they stop breathing.
（1）The word "converting" (para.1) is closest in meaning to _______.
A.charging
B.convincing
C.exchanging
D.transforming
（2）After putting on the mask, how do people charge their mobile phones using the device?
A.Breathe out air-Drive turbines-Produce electricity.
B.Use wind-Pass through turbines-Produce electricity.
C.Breathe in air-Use turbines-Create energy.
D.Connect turbines-Produce wind flow-Create energy.
（3）Lammoglia would most probably agree that the AIRE mask _______.
A.consumes a high amount of energy
B.will account for environmental damage
C.is a good solution to energy issues
D.is available in the shop now
（4）Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.An electronic mask
B.A breath-powered charger
C.A new renewable energy source
D.An air purifying device

    China's higher education is developing very fast.The number of college students are quite small in the 1980s, now nearly fourteen million students are studying in colleges and universities.

First of all, its quick development results China's rapid socially and economic development.Through the reform and opening up, people have become richer and have much money to invest in education. Secondly, our government had attached great importance to higher education and taken out practical measures to encourage people to go to college.

    It is clear shown that many middle school students have physical and mental problems. 68% of the students surveying have studying anxiety as well as poor eyesight too. And a larger percentage lacks sleep. 52% are short of physical exercise. 42% of the students won't obey our parents or teachers. Personally, I think we student should balance our physical exercise and studies. Without sound body, one can't achieve anything. However, too much attention has been paid only on studies. As a result, I suggest we are given less homework or more time for out-of-classroom activities. Only in this way can we live a happy and healthy life.
