The City Bike program rolled into New York last spring and proved a hit, with nearly 12,000 New Yorkers signing up for annual memberships. Since 2010, over a dozen US cities have introduced bike-share programs.
There’re plenty of bike stations near parks and other car-free areas. The programs we saw in major cities work the same way. You buy a 24-hour pass. During the time, you get an unlimited number of 30-minute rides. If you go over your given half-hour ride time, you start paying fees for each following 30-minute period. Here are some of the biggest bike-share programs in America.
Minneapolis: Nice Ride Minnesota
Station: Minnehaha Ave. & Minnehaha Pkwy
How much: $ 6 for a 24-hour pass.
How it works: The first 30 minutes are included in the pass; $ 1.50 for the second 30 minutes; $ 4.50 for the third 30 minutes; later $ 6 for every half an hour.

Ammie Reddick from East Kilbride, Lanarkshire, was only 18 months old when she had the accident that had scarred(留下创伤) her for life. The curious child reached up to grab the wire of a hot kettle in the family kitchen and poured boiling water over her tiny infant frame.
Her mother Ruby turned round and, seeing Ammie horribly burnt, called an ambulance which rushed her daughter to a nearby hospital. Twenty percent of Ammie’s body had been burned and all of her burns were third-degree. There, using tissue taken from unburned areas of Ammie’s body, doctors performed complex skin transplants to close her wounds and control her injuries, an operation that took about six hours. Over the next 16 years, Ammie underwent 12 more operations to repair her body.
When she started school at Maxwelton Primary at age 4, other pupils made cruel comments or simply wouldn’t play with her. “I was the only burned child in the street, the class and the school,” she recalled, “some children refused to become friends because of that.”
Today, aged 17, Ammie can only ever remember being a burned person with scars; pain is a permanent part of her body. She still has to have two further skin transplants. Yet she is a confident, outgoing teenager who offers inspiration and hope to other young burns victims.
She is a member of the Scottish Burned Children’s Club, a charity set up last year. This month, Ammie will be joining the younger children at the Graffham Water Center in Cambridgeshire for the charity’s first summer camp. “I’ll show them how to get rid of unkind stares from others,” she says. Ammie loves wearing fashionable sleeveless tops, and she plans to show the youngsters at the summer camp that they can too. “I do not go to great lengths to hide my burns scars,” she says, “I gave up wondering how other people would react years ago.”
24 .How many operations has Ammie already had?
A.Twelve B.Fourteen C.Thirteen D.Fifteen
25 .What did other children do when Ammie first went to school?
A.They were friendly to her.
B.They showed sympathy to her.
C. They looked down upon her.
D. They were afraid of her.

A.hide their scars by proper dressing
B.face others’ unkindness bravely
C.live a normal life
D.recover quickly
27 .Which of the following words can’t properly describe Ammie?
A.sensitive B.Courageous C.Confident D.Outgoing
28 .What can be the best title of the passage?
A.A Seriously Burned Girl Survives
B.Ways to Get Rid of Unkind Stares
C.A seriously burned angel of Hope
D.Permanent Scars And Pain For a Girl

On the banks of Tanzania’s Lake Eyasi lives the world’s last hunter-gatherer tribe (部落) — the Hadza. They don’t grow food, raise animals or build houses. Instead they live a life unchanged for more than ten thousand years.
Their world is one of complete freedom — something modern society can barely imagine and is unlikely to ever experience, let alone have the skills to stay alive. Text messages and phone calls don’t exist. Nor do cars and electricity. No jobs, timetables, and social structures. No laws, taxes and unbelievably, no money — the closest thing to currency (交易,流通) is the trade for a pair of shorts with a neighboring tribe.
We spent our time with the Hadza hunting baboons (狒狒), a daily activity for the men. Their land is packed with sharp bushes, poisonous snakes and man-eating lions. But a successful hunting trip is the difference between eating or going hungry.
The Hadza diet consists mainly of honey, fruit and meat. Men often hunt in pairs to shoot animals with bows and arrows. The Hadza show us how to track animals, from baboons to snakes to lions. They are hugely skilled with their handmade bows and arrows — we have a go and barely get the arrow to go three feet in front of us.
The language of the Hadza is believed to be the oldest still-spoken language known to man. The Hadza don’t have conflict, and have no memory of starvation. Their population never reaches numbers that cannot be supported through hunting or gathering. They never get from their land more than they need.
Unlike modern-day office workers, the Hadza enjoy an extraordinary amount of free time. Their “work” — hunting for food — takes up around five hours of their day. They’ve been in such a state of peaceful existence for thousands of years.
29. We can learn from the text that the Hadza_______.
A. live on traditional agriculture
B. have their own system of currency
C. lead a very primitive (原始) life
D. show a lot of interest in new technology
30. Which of the following can describe the Hadza’s environment?
A. Stressful. B. Comfortable. C. Dangerous. D. Exciting.
31. The relationship between the Hadza and nature_______.
A. is in perfect harmony B. is going wrong
C. is full of conflict D. is changing all the time
32. Why does the author come to visit the Hadza?
A. To study their native language.
B. To learn survival skills from them.
C. To persuade them to protect animals.
D To get to know their way of life.
D
