A
Dr charlotte Uhlenbroek recently returned to London after filming her second series, Jungle. It was difficult, 19-week trip, during which she explored the rainforests of Borneo, the Amazon and Congo, travelling around using variety of means of transport, including hot-air balloons and canoes. “I’m interested in the way animals municate with each other. It was sometimes dangerous making the program ---I even went swimming with piranha(水虎鱼)fish. But the worst thing was insects. On one oasion I had 70 sand-fly bites on my arm. Luckily I didn’t get sick. I prefer not to take tablets every day, but if I get a fever, take some medicine immediately.”
Filming the series was exciting, but also frightening at times. Her most challenging experience was climbing a 100-meter tree in Borneo, as she has a great fear of heights. “I had to keep pulling myself further and further upwards. All I wanted to do was get down again. Suddenly the safety equipment didn’t look very strong and I thought that my ropes would break and I would crash to the ground.”
What did she enjoy most about returning to London? “When I’ve been away in hot unfortable conditions for a long time I dream about an ice-cold drink and my bed at home! But the thing I look forward to the most is nice long showers. There wasn’t much water in some of the places we visited and I worried that I was using it all up and not leaving any for my colleagues on the camera team! ”
52.Charlotte found climbing the tree in Borneo so frightening because_______.
A.she hates being in high places B. she was unable to get down
C.her equipment suddenly broke D. she slipped and fell to the ground

D.Insects, piranha fish, hot-air balloons-it’s all in one day’s work for Charlotte in her latest series.
B
Flappy Bird
Be careful what you wish for, especially if you want to invent something new. Recently, Dong Nguyen, the designer of the mobile game Flappy Bird, removed it from app stores. He said its suess ? it had been downloaded more than 50 million times and was making him around £30,000 from advertising each day ? had ruined his simple life. On his Twitter aount, he said: “I cannot take this anymore.” OK, so regretting making Flappy Bird isn’t quite the same as regretting making a gun, but Nguyen is just the latest inventor who wished he hadn’t created a monster.
The Labradoodle
The labradoodle isn’t a monster ? it’s attractive. But what’s unnatural is the way crossbreed (杂交的)dogs have been sold since the labradoodle’s inventor, Wally Conron, first created the dog in the 1980s. “I’ve done a lot of damage,” he told the media. “I’ve created a lot of problems. There are a lot of unhealthy and dropped dogs out there.” Conron came up with the labradoodle when he was working for the Royal Guide Dog Association of Australia to provide a dog for a blind woman whose husband was easily affected by dog hair. What he didn’t expect was that the labradoodle ? and other types of such dogs, many of which have health problems ? would bee so popular.
The AK-47
Six months before his death in December 2013, Mikhail Kalashnikov, the designer of the gun, wrote to the head of the Russian Orthodox Church: “I almost cannot deal with my mental pain. If my gun killed people, does that mean that I, 93 years of age, the son of a poor farmer, am responsible for people’s deaths, even if they were enemies?”
Electronic Tagging
EElectronic Tag
The electronic tag was originally made in the 1960s as a way of tracking former prisoners’ presence at school and work, and rewarding them for good behavior. Its inventors, Bob Gable and his brother Kirkland, were later shocked that the tag had bee a form of control and punishment. “It’s not pleasant,” Kirkland Gable told the Guardian in 2010, “but I’m not in control of the universe. I have to realize there are some things out of my control.”
Pepper Spray
After police sprayed（喷射） peaceful protesters with pepper spray at a University of California campus in 2011, one of the scientists who helped develop it in the 80s criticized its use.“I have never seen such an inappropriate use of chemicals,” Kamran Loghman told The New York Times.
The Office Cubicle
In the late 60s, a new form of office was designed to give workers privacy and increase productivity by providing more work space. Instead, it became a way for panies to put employees into tighter spaces. These days, the cubicle is often connected with uniformity and soulless work. Its inventor, Bob Propst, said, in 1997, “the use of cubicles in modern corporations is crazy.”
Office Cubicle
55.Which of the following is Wrong aording to the passage?
A.The labradoodle was originally created to help people have a better life.
B.The inventor thought electronic tagging would give former prisoners more freedom.
C. The office cubicle was intended to provide personal life and improve work performance.

56.Which of the following inventions came first?
A.Flappy Bird.B. The labradoodle.C. The office cubicle.D. Pepper spray.
57.What’s the best title of the six passages?
A.Inventions their creators regret. B. Products their creators praise.
C. Damages inventions cause. D. Benefits inventions bring.
C
We may all like to consider ourselves free spirits. But a study of the tracks left by 50,000 mobile phone users over three months has finally proved that the truth is otherwise.
“We are all in one way or another boring,” says Albert-Laszlo Barabasi at the Center for plex work Research at Northeastern University in Boston, who co-wrote the study. “Spontaneous individuals are largely absent from the population,”
Barabasi and colleagues used three months’ worth of data from a mobile phone work to track the mobile phone towers each person’s phone connected to each hour of the day, showing their general location. They conclude that regardless of whether a person typically remains close to home or wanders far and wide, their movements are probably predictable as much as 93 percent of the time.
Surprisingly, the mobile phone data showed that individuals’ movements were more or less as predictable at weekends as on weekdays, suggesting that routine(日程) is rooted in human nature rather than being an effect of work patterns.
The mobile phone records were handled to make out the most visited locations for each user. Then the probability of finding a given user at his most visited locations at each hour through the day was calculated.
People were to be found in their most visited location for any given hour 70 percent of the time. Not surprisingly, the figure increased at night, and decreased at lunchtime and in the early evening, when most people were returning home from work.
The team analyzed the randomness(随意性) of people’s traces to show it was possible in theory to predict the average person’s places as much as 93 percent of the time.
“Say your routine movement is from home to the coffee shop to work: if you are at home and then go to the coffee shop it’s easy for me to predict that you are going to work,” says co-author Nicholas Blumm.
This predictability was not much affected by differences in age, gender, language spoken or whether a person lived in a rural or urban setting.
58.The “spontaneous individuals” are most probably people who ______.
A.are boring in some way
B.act with much freedom
C.can live without a mobile phone
D.rely much on a mobile phone in life
59.A phone user’s location is shown by_______.
A.which mobile phone work he is connected to
B.the content of his every phone call
C.which mobile phone tower he is connected to
D.how often he uses the phone every day
60.Aording to the sixth paragraph, a person is more likely to ____ at night than in the early evening.
A.return home from work
B.be found at home
C.take home as his most visited place
D.go to his most visited place
61.What is the passage mainly about?
A. The factors that help determine one’s routine.
B. The predictability of one’s routine.
C. The influence of mobile phones on one’s routine.
D. The new application of mobile phone.
Section C (6%)
Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or plete the statements in the fewest possible words.

I have left two messages with them but have not had any response. Also, my son is telling them to get lost but they continue bullying him. For example, Writing notes to him and making fun of him constantly in front of his classmates. He does not want to report it. He gets very emotional and feels defeated.

Question: What’s the probable relationship between the two speakers?
4.M: My God! I am almost wet all over.
W: We should have carried umbrellas with us when we came out this morning.
Question: What is the weather like?
5.M: Hi, Sandra. I gave your note to Danny this morning.
W: You gave it to Danny? Are you kidding, Frank? The note was for Joe, not for Danny!
Question: Whom should the note have been given to?
6.W: Oh, my God! It’s already half past tour and I haven’t finished typing these business letters

When was the last time your family had a piic outside? How long do you spend watching TV every day? Nowadays, families spend less and less time on outdoor activities, but "Take a Child Outside" week in the US is trying to change the situation.
"Take a Child Outside" week encourages parents to take their kids away from the television and go out for some fresh air. This special week began in North Carolina. Now it has spread throughout much of the US. This year, about 250 anizations in the US and Canada will take part in it.
This special week brings a message to all families: go and take a long walk. Parents can take their kids to go fishing, go on a boat trip or just go camping together. Even just sitting at a piic table and watching their kids playing outside is a good idea. Outdoor activities connect kids to the nature. They allow them to be free and to move around. They can also improve kids’ skills in creativity and observation. Kids can make use of outdoor material when playing in the outside world around them. In addition, about 17 percent of kids in the US are overweight. This special week also aims to prevent the phenomenon from spreading. Getting out of the house can help kids lose weight and keep them away from sitting before the television.
