A stupid joke at that. I mean, what sort of moron would take a perfectly good, perfectly famous bridge and move it halfway around the world to some no-name town in northwest Arizona? Back in 1962 when all this started, Lake Havasu City was nothing. A couple of shops, a couple of homes, and no tourism at all.It turns out Robert McCulloch is the moron in question, and he wasnt quite the moron I thought he was. His 2.45 million dollar investment in the 130-year-old bridgewhich the British government was selling because it was about to fall into the Thamesended up being the investment of a lifetime. You see McCulloch was a real businessman, among other things, and his money paid off big. He turned Lake Havasu into one of the most visited tourist attractions in Arizona.It took nine long years to take down the bridge, ship it brick by brick to the middle of nowhere, and build it up again. When it finally did open up in 1971, it was a huge deal covered by the international press.The bridge is now a popular tourist attraction, and theres even a mini “English Village” at the foot of the bridge with souvenirs and real British food so you can have a good old time.Nowadays Lake Havasu is a busy town with a population of about 56,000 citizens and another2.5 million visitors each year. Most of that is during spring break when the town overflows with energetic boys and girls. Even MTV and the Girls Gone Wild people get in on the action. All thanks to that little bridge.I dont know about you, but Im saving my pennies. When the French get sick of that Eiffel Tower, Ill be the first to put money on it. Itll look great in my backyard.21. The underlined word moron in the first paragraph means .A. a brave person B. a foolish personC. a famous person D. a strange person22. Why did the British government put the London Bridge up for sale? A. It polluted the Thames. B. It was no longer popular. C. It was going to fall down. D. It could bring them the needed money.23. What was Lake Havasu City like before 1962?A. It was a good place for investment. B. It was known for its English Village.C. It was a small town with no tourism. D. It had a population of 56,000 citizens.24. In the last paragraph, the author tries to be . A. polite B. friendly C. practical D. humorousB Studies over the past decade at the University of Utah show that hands-free cellphones are just as harmful to drivers as hand-held ones because it is the conversation, not the phone, that is distracting(分散) their attention. “Even though your eyes are looking right at something, when you are on the cellphone, you are not as likely to see it,” says Professor David Strayer. “Ninety-nine percent of the time, its not that critical(危急的), but that l% could be the time a child runs into the street,” he adds.Dr. Strayers studies have also found that talking on a cellphone is far more distracting than talking with a passenger. Listening to the radio, to music or to a book on tape also isnt as distracting, because it doesnt require the same level of interaction as a conversation. But even drivers may miss some details of a book on tape if their attention is focused on driving tasks. Some people can train themselves to pay extra attention to things that are importantlike police officers learn to search faces in crowds.And the Utah researchers have found a rare group of “super-taskers”about 2.5% of the populationwho seem able to attend to more than one thing with ease.Many more people think they can effectively do several things at the same time, but they are really turning their attention rapidly between two things and not getting the full effect of either. Clearly, it is easier to put some tasks together than others.” Not all distractions are the same, says Dr. Strayer. Things like cleaning and working out can be done automatically while the mind is focused elsewhere. But doing homework and texting at the same time isnt possible. Even talking and watching TV is difficult. “Just try talking with your wife while watching football. Its impossible,” jokes Dr. Strayer.25. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. The harm in using phones while driving. B. The advantages of hand-held phones. C. The danger of running in the street. D. The causes of road accidents.26. What does the example of police officers in Paragraph 2 show? A. Searching for faces requires more attention than driving. B. Talking to a crowd calls for a high level of attention. C. Ones attention can be easily distracted in crowds.D. The ability to attend to two tasks can be trained.27. “Super-taskers” can be best described as people who can .A. do several things effectively at the same time B. turn their attention rapidly to two thingsC. handle all difficult tasks with ease D. pay full attention to one task28. Which of the following can you do while talking on the phone? A. Doing homework. B. Writing a letter. C. Working out. D. Watching TV.

They have been trying to prove that the value of a woman does not lie only in her beauty. The world is just beginning to recognize that women are as smart, wise and strong in personality as men are, and that there are qualities more important than looks when judging people. When women take part in beauty contests for top prizes, they encourage people to value them for their beauty alone. It is unfair to say that beauty alone determines ones worth.Beauty contests not only encourage spectators (观众) to judge women by their appearance, but they encourage this idea in the contestants as well. These young women spend months losing weight to be the “right” size and learning how to dress, wear makeup, and walk just right so that some judges will consider them beautiful. I think its great for a woman to feel good about her appearance, but looks shouldnt be sought after in an extreme or unreasonable way. There are too many other, more important, things in a young womans life: learning, developing friendships and preparing for their future work and perhaps a family.As long as there are beauty contests, women wont be fully recognized as well-rounded human beings.32. According to the text, women have tried to change their image by .A. proving they are as good as men B. paying attention to their clothes C. winning more beauty contests D. encouraging people to value their beauty33. What do women usually do in preparation for beauty contests?A. Learn about their personality. B. Do everything for their bodies.C. Choose the right size dresses.D. Develop friendship with spectators.34. What can we infer from the text?A. Looks determine everything. B. Wisdom carries much weight.C. Spectators should have their voices heard. D. Qualities other than looks are more important.35. According to the author, beauty contests are . A. disrespectful to women B. unpleasant to contestants C. necessary for modern society D. helpful in improving womens image其次节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。Things to Do When Youre Feeling DownLets start with a fact. We all have days when we feel down and discouraged. 36 Here is a list to help you get back on track.1. Take Care of YourselfThis may seem like an obvious thing, but try your best to get a good nights sleep and eat healthy food when youre hungry. 37 Consider setting an earlier bedtime than usual and stick to it. Make some nourishing snacks that you can easily grab instead of sugary junk food. Fresh fruit, a piece of cheese, some cut-up vegetables, homemade soup; theyre all quick and easy options to consider.2. Whats Comforting to You? 38 Take a bike ride or go for a walk in nature.
