26、   Princess quiz time! How did Snow White survive? How did Cinderella (《灰姑娘》) leave her evil stepmother? How did Sleeping Beauty finally wake up?

A kind-hearted person always comes to save the princess, like a prince or a godmother. Princesses cannot protect themselves, though they are very pretty and nice. They always need the help of others. However, in fact, women can’t put their life in the hands of a prince-like man. They need to work and even fight for their own happiness. The traditional image (形象) of a princess is getting out of date.

Recently, Disney, a company famous for its princess movies, posted the “top 10 rules for being a modern princess”. You will not find any rules related to beauty or looks. The rules highlight loyalty, honesty and other moral values. The rules say princesses need to believe in themselves and try their best to get out of trouble, instead of waiting for a prince’s help.

It’s not the first time Disney princesses have caught up with society’s development. In 1950, when people’s hearts were broken by World War II, Disney created Cinderella. In 1990, Princess Belle from Beauty and the Beast (《美女与野兽》) loved reading when education was a man’s special right in the past. Belle showed the improvement of women’s position in society. Now is Elsa from the film Frozen (《冰雪奇缘》), a symbol of modern princess.

“This is brilliant — ‘The top 10 rules of being a modern princess’ — (it’s) about time,” a group named Confidently Mom said on social media website Twitter. Princesses are still very beautiful, but inner character is the key to being a princess.

【1】What should modern women be like according to para2?

A.They should care about their appearances.

B.They should turn to others for help.

C.They should depend on men to change their lives.

D.They should depend on themselves for their own happiness.

【2】What are Disney’s rules for a modern princess centered on ?

A.Her beauty. B.Her moral values.

C.Her education. D.Her position in society.

【3】Why has Disney been changing the images of a princess according to para4?

A.To meet the need of the world peace.

B.To improve girls’ education.

C.To improve girl’s position in society.

D.To keep up with the development of society.

【4】What does the group Confidently Mom think of the rules?

A.Doubtful. B.Meaningless.

C.Fantastic. D.Terrible.

27、“The price of books for our students is just getting higher and higher and，combined with the rising cost of tuition，it’s killing these students，”said Peter Jason，a college professor. “Remember，students are one of the poorest groups of people in America. Almost half of them have at least one part-time job. In fact，one of my students has three jobs. And she still manages to have high scores and go to school full-time. ”

Textbook prices are traditionally high. Adding to that problem, many college teachers change textbooks year after year; they either upgrade to a new edition or switch to an entirely different textbook. This further hurts students because if an instructor no longer uses a particular textbook，that book has no resale value.

Dr. Jason decided to make reading a little easier and a lot cheaper for his students by writing his own book on public speaking. “Many books have an increased price because of CD-ROMs，lots of color photographs and pictures. I talked to my students，and many of them，like me，prefer to keep things simple! So，a few years ago，I wrote my own textbook. Compared to most other public speaking books，mine is half the number of pages，and one-third the price. That is，$30 instead of $90.   When I wrote a second edition last year，students only had to buy the 35 new pages, For only $7. 00，they had almost a new book. Now my loose-leaf textbook enjoys great popularity among the students. Maybe in the future more writers and publishers will try it. ”

【1】What did Dr. Jason say about students at college?

A．They are short of money.

B．They need better textbooks.

C．They should do part-time jobs.

D．They are trying to get high scores.

【2】What did Dr. Jason decide to do to help the students?

A．To choose cheaper textbooks.

B．To write a textbook himself.

C．To speak to his students.

D．To use old textbooks.

【3】How much does a public speaking textbook usually cost?

A．About 7 dollars.

B．About 30 dollars.

C．About 37 dollars.

D．About 90 dollars.

【4】Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

A．Dr. Jason’s textbook has CD-ROMs and nice pictures.

B．More writers and publishers will write simpler textbooks.

C．Dr. Jason teaches public speaking at a college.

D．Dr. Jason’s textbook is not well received.

28、   In an ideal world, people would not test medicines on animals. Such experiments are stressful and sometimes painful for animals, and expensive and time-consuming for people. Yet animal experimentation is still needed to help bridge vast gaps in medical knowledge. That is why there are some 50 to 100 million animals used in research around the world each year.

Europe, on the whole, has the world’s most restrictive laws on animal experiments. Even so, its scientists use some 12 million animals a year, most of them mice and rats, for medical research. Official statistics show that just 1.1 million animals are used in research in America each year. But that is misleading. The American authorities do not think mice and rats are worth counting and, as these are the most common laboratory animals, the true figure is much higher. Japan and China have even less comprehensive data than America.

Now Europe is reforming the rules governing animal experiments by restricting the number of animals used in labs. Alternatives to animal testing, such as using human tissue or computer models,are now strongly recommended. In addition, sharing all research results freely should help to reduce the number of animals for scientific use. At present, scientists often share only the results of successful experiments. If their findings do not fit the hypothesis being tested, the work never sees the light of day. This practice means wasting time, money, and animals’ lives in endlessly repeating the failed experiments.

Animal experimentation has taught humanity a great deal and saved countless lives. It needs to continue, even if that means animals sometimes suffer. Europe’s new measures should eventually both reduce the number of animals used in experiments and improve the way in which scientific research is conducted.

【1】What is the main idea of this passage?

A.The success of animal experiments should be ensured.

B.A ban on the use of animals in the lab should be enforced.

C.Greater efforts need to be taken to reduce the number of lab animals.

D.Scientists should be required to share their research results with each other.

【2】Which of the following statements is TRUE about animals used in the lab?

A.America uses only about 1.1 million lab animals per year.

B.Europe does not use mice and rats as lab animals at all.

C.Britain does not use as many lab animals as China does.

D.Japan has limited data on the number of lab animals used each year.

【3】Which of the following is mentioned as an alternative to replace animal experiments?

A.Statistical studies.

B.Computer models.

C.DNA planted in animals.

D.Tissue from dead animals.

【4】What usually happens to unsuccessful animal experiments?

A.They are not revealed to the public.

B.They are made into teaching materials.

C.They are collected for future publication.

D.They are not removed from the research topic list.

29、Social media can be defined (解释) as web-based and mobile media that are used for people to interact, connect and communicate with each other. It often involves the creation and sharing of content (writing, pictures, and video) that people make themselves, mostly through the Internet.

【1】 The first type involve people getting together to work on a project, for example, Wikipedia. Blogs and micro-blogs (such as Twitter) are another type of social media. There are other websites like YouTube that allow people to share content such as pictures, articles or videos. Another type of social media are social networking sites.【2】 Facebook is an example of this type. Many people like to play games on the Internet and, yes, there are social media games as well. These games allow gamers to interact with each other and play with or against other gamers. World of Warcraft is a good example. The final type of social media is websites like Second Life, where people can create avatars (化身) and use and create objects, as if they were in the real world.

【3】 With social media, many individual people in different places create content. Another difference is that people who produce content in social media don’t need very special skills. 【4】. It takes only a few minutes to write a twitter post, for example.

【5】. But whatever you might think, social media is here to stay.

A．These sites allow people to stay in touch with friends, make new ones and join communities.

B．Social media are different from traditional media.

C．And social media content can be produced much faster.
