These days shared bikes are becoming the center of attention in my WeChat friend circle. Many of my friends are sharing photos of themselves riding bikes, especially during the weekend in natural parks, and I can see people logging in (登录) and out of shared bike apps.

I’m very happy that there are shared bikes on the road. They have saved us a lot of time during special situations, and on beautiful, clear days, people enjoy riding them outside the city.

I tried shared bikes last week, and I didn’t like them very much. I think the first shared bikes without baskets are designed for athletes. They are very hard to ride, and the seats are not comfortable. It makes me wonder whether people really like riding shared bikes or are just saying this to agree with others.

A friend secretly told me she tried the bikes to fit in. She doesn’t like bikes and finds Beijing’s roads too hard for bike riding. But recently, the only way to hang out with her friends is riding out of town together. To join in social activities, she had to pick up bike riding again.

Another friend admitted that he started talking about and sharing photos on shared bikes in order just to appear modern and fashionable to friends. He started paying attention when shared bikes first came into use.

These views will give me something new to think about when I ride these bikes again.

55. What does the writer himself think of shared bikes?

A. They are very difficult to ride.

B. Their seats are comfortable.

C. Athletes like shared bikes.

D. They can save us a lot of money.

56. The underlined word “admitted” may mean _______________ in the passage.

A. told a lie

B. told the truth

C. kept a promise

D. kept a secret

57 Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. It’s quite simple to use shared bikes at special time.

B. Some people only appear to be interested in shared bikes.

C. The writer likes the bikes without baskets because they are for athletes.

D. Some people like to share photos riding bikes because they want to agree with others.

C

When you cough or sneeze, yo u’d better turn your head away from others and cover your mouth with the full part of your hand. And then, you should say,

“Excuse me.”

This seems so simple, but it is surprising how many kids have never been told to do this. Actually, I notice adults all the time who cough and sneeze in public

without placing a hand over the mouth. One important thing I point out to the kids is that after they sneeze or cough on their hands, they should wash their hands as soon as possible. If not, they will be passing those germs (细菌) along to everything and everyone they touch.

If you come to a door and someone is following you, hold the door. If

the door opens by pulling, pull it open, stand to the side, and allow the

other person to pass through first, then you can walk through. If the door

opens by pushing, hold the door after you pass through.

After a few weeks of seeing kids try to get through doors in the school

and watching them enter restaurants as the door hit other people, I knew I had

to discuss the problem with my students. Teaching them small acts of kindness, such as letting someone

else go through a door first as they hold it open, may seem unimportant, but it can go along way toward helping students realize how to be polite and thank others. Once they’ve been told, they’re halfway there.

When we have to go up moving stairs, we will stand to the right. That will give others who are in a hurry a choice of walking up the left-hand side of the

moving stairs. When we are going to enter a lift, the underground, or a doorway,

we will wait for others to exit before we enter.

After college when I moved to London, I was surprised at how polite everyone was in the subways. I was even more touched when I traveled to Japan. In both places, people made efforts to make way for others. On moving stairs, everyone stood to the right and walked to the left. On lifts, everyone would stand over to the side and allow others to exit before they would begin to enter.

58. When you cough or sneeze, you should ________.

A. touch everything

B. cover your mouth

C. point out to the kids

D. pass the germs to others

59. If you come to a door and someone is following you, you’d better _______.

A. hold the door

B. pass through

C. close the door

D. stand to the side

60. Why should we stand to the right of moving stairs?

A. Because it’s dangerous to stand to the left.

B. Because it’s a traffic rule which we must follow.

C. Because we must wait for others to move first.

D. Because we should make way for people in a hurry.

61. From the passage we can know the writer is a ________.

A. doctor

B. traveler

C. parent

D. teacher

62. A. The passage is mainly about ______.

A. the rules of acts in public

B. the ways of communication

C. the problems of meeting people

D. the knowledge of social life

Many people think that keeping a diary is something that teenage girls do. It’s seen as a place to write down secrets, things you don’t want anyone else to know. The stereotype (模式化观念) is that only women keep diaries. In fact, keeping a diary is a very old tradition. It can be useful for many different types of people. Many famous people have kept diaries. Many powerful people have kept diaries. Some of these people include famous writers and presidents.

Keeping a diary is said to have health advantages. Studies show that keeping a diary, that is, writing out thoughts daily, can reduce asthma symptoms (哮喘症状).

Writing uses your left brain, which is thoughtful and organized. While your left brain is busy, your right brain is free to create and feel. This allows you to use all of your brain power to better understand yourself, others, and the world around you.

The key to successful diary keeping is not stopping any thoughts from coming through. This even means allowing thoughts that influence you to come out in your writing. It helps make your feelings clearer, and is especially useful if a person is faced with a hard decision. Sometimes just writing down the ideas you agree and disagree helps you better understand a problem. You begin to see a problem from different ways. This is helpful if you don’t agree with others.

63. What does the word “it” in Paragraph 4 mean?

A. Keeping away from illness.

B. Using your right brain to create.

C. Stopping some thoughts coming through.

D. Allowing thoughts to come out in your diary.

64. According to the passage, keeping diaries can help ______.

A. get along with others

B. understand things better

C. know more about the old tradition

D. become famous in the future

65. What is the main idea of the passage?

A. The advantages of keeping diaries.

B. Keeping a diary with your left brain.

C. The ways of keeping a diary successfully.

D. The reasons girls like keeping diaries.

六、任务型阅读（计10分）

阅读下列短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后表格。（每空一词）

We brush our teeth every day but few people know how well we’re brushing. Today, a French company has introduced an electric toothbrush, which can work wirelessly(无线地) with a smart phone. It’s called the Kolibree toothbrush. It has different models, and will cost from $99 to $200.

Users download an app and connect via Bluetooth, and the Kolibree will record 1) the time you spent brushing teeth, 2) whether all areas of your mouth are reached, 3) whether you brush up and down instead of just side to side. Then it will send the information to a mobile phone via Bluetooth, telling you whether you have brushed in a proper way. The Kolibree app records your progress and scores your brushing way to help you improve brushing habits.

The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other apps on your phone, so developers could create a game controlled by your toothbrush. That would be very interesting.

The Kolibree toothbrush was invented by Thomas Serval. He says the idea of inventing it came from his experience as a father. He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth. They always answered “yes”, but Thomas used to find their toothbrush heads dry. He decided that a kind of brush was needed to tell him how well they brushed their teeth.

Thomas says that o ne day, it’ll be possible to use a brushing unit with a camera. The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush.
