Experts say that 5-10 percent of the average family’s electric bill is from electronic appliances that are plugged in 24 hours a day. Televisions, computers, coffeemakers, toasters and even lamps can suck up power. If you are gone for any extended period, consider turning down the temperature on your water heater since there is no sense in keeping that water hot if you are not going to be around to use it.Choose a different wayIf you have a little extras time to spare, driving or taking a train to your destination might be an option. And there are always the long-haul options like Megabus. If you do have to take a plane, fly non-stop. If you want to have a lower carbon footprint, avoid private jets even if you can afford them.At the hotelUtilize every conservation program that the hotel offers. Reuse your towels and turn off your air conditioning

or heat before you leave for the day. Bring your own soap, shampoo and moisturizer, or at least take whatever is left of the hotel-supplied notions home with you to finish using there. Skip the morning printed newspaper and read it on your Tablet PC, phone or computer.DrinkingCarry a water bottle with you so that you don’t have to buy plastic bottles. Travel to certain parts of the world and you will understand why. There’s nothing more disturbing than seeing something made up of plastic bottles and bags. Halong Bay in Vietnam is a great example where this kind man-made pollution is clearly visible.21. What should you do at the hotel in order to live a low-carbon life?A. Use different towels every day. B. Obtain information in the morning.C. Bring the leftover soap for later use. D. Keep your tablet, phone or computer on.22. Halong Bay is mentioned by the writer to tell us _____.A. it is polluted seriously B. it is an attractive destinationC. it is full of plastic products D. it looks beautiful with plastic bottles23. The text is most probably from_____.A. a science report B. a business magazineC. an advertisement D. a website on green lifeBFinally, a cell phoneThat’s--a phoneWith rates as low as $3.75 per week!“Well, I finally did it. I finally decided to enter the digital age and get a cell phone. My kids have been annoying me and the last

straw was when my car broke down，and I was stuck by the highway for an hour before someone stopped to help. But when I went to the cell phone store, I almost changed my mind. Their phones all have cameras, computers and a “global-positioning”something or other that’s supposed to spot me from space. Goodness, all I want to do is to be able to talk to my grandkids! The people at the store weren’t much help. They couldn’t understand why someone wouldn’t want a phone the size of a postage stamp. And the rate plans! They were confusing, and expensive---and the contract (合同）lasted for two years! I’d almost given up until a friend told me about her new Jitterbug phone. Now, I have the convenience and safety of being about to stay in touch --- with a phone I can actually use. ”Affordable plans tha t I can understand一and no contract to sign！ Unlike other cell phones，Jitterbug has plans that make sense. Why should I pay for minutes I’m never going to use? And if I do talk more than I plan, I won’t find myself with no minutes like my friend who has a prepaid phone. Best of all, there is no contract to sign—so I’m not locked in for years at a time. The US-based customer service is second to none. And the phone gets service anywhere in the country.Monthly Minutes 50 100Monthly Rate $14.99 $19.99911 Access FREE

The main purpose of the passage is to _____.A. tell a customer’s story of Jitterbug B. provide two ways to order JitterbugC. give a brief introduction of Jitterbug D. attract potential customers to JitterbugC.Engineers should embrace the

arts, Sir John O’Reilly, a fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology, argued in a lecture.About 59% of engineering companies in the IET’s 2021 survey feared skill shortages could threaten business.“There is nothing as creative as engineering,” Sir John told the reporter. He says science, technology, engineering and mathematics - often known as “Stem” subjects, are vital for a modern knowle dge economy. But there is a massive shortfall in the number of recruits （招聘）- with a recent study by the Royal Academy of Engineering saying the UK needs to increase by as much as 50% the number of Stem graduates it produces.Delivering this year’s Mountbatten Lecture at the Royal Institution, Sir John argued that engineers should recognise the role of the arts in their work - among other benefits; this could attract more people into the profession. The lecture, Full Steam Ahead for Growth, advocated a wider adoption -- Stem, or science, technology, engineering, arts and maths. Engineers should embrace the arts as being key to creativity and an important component of innovation（创新）, vital to creating new products and boosting future competitiveness, he argued. “Engineering and technology is an increasingly diverse and creative field,” said Sir John.Some university engineering departments already

cooperated with art schools to develop understanding, he told the reporter. In particular he mentioned Cranfield University’s Centre for Creative Competitive Design and Imperial College’s work with the Royal College of Art. The two sets of people could work well together and more emphasis on the creative side of engineering could improve the success of products, he said.“Aesthetics(美学) is part of it,” he told the reporter, adding that Apple’s iPod was not the first digital media player, nor the only one that worked - but it came to dominate the market “because it was nice to have”.S ir John said he was not suggesting universities started requiring A-level art from engineering applicants - the key subjects for admission would continue to be maths and the sciences. But an emphasis on creative skills would help “broaden the pool and attract more peop le in”.28. According to the lecture Full Steam Ahead for Growth, _______.A. engineers should cooperate with arts majorsB. Accepting the arts could attract more people into engineeringC. engineers should realize arts play the most important part in their workD. engineering and technology is as diverse and creative as before29. By giving the example of Apple’s iPod, Sir John intends to _______.A. stress the importance of artsB. stress the importance of marketingC.

stress the importance of communicationD. stress the importance of science and technology30. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. More university students should study arts instead of engineering.B. Engineering and technology are increasingly different and unrelated fields.C. The IET’s skills survey raised concerns about the number of recruits to engineering.D. Some students from engineering departments have already transferred to art schools.31. What is the passage mainly about?A. Lack of creativity in engineering lead to the difficulty finding a satisfactory job.B. The key subjects for admission remain to be maths and the sciences rather than arts.C. Engineering plants should cooperate with art schools to improve the sales of products.D. Engineering needs to combine creativity and arts to benefit students’ career choice.DCleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy –they’re given after all. Choices can be hard.I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2,300 percent per year. I’d never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old, and I’d been married for a year. I told my wife

MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn’t work since most start-ups don’t, and I wasn’t sure what to expect. MacKenzie told me I should go for it. As a young boy, I’d been a garage inventor. I’d always wanted to be an inventor, and she wanted me to follow my passion.I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people, and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park, listened carefully to me, and finally said, “That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn’t already have a good job.” That logic ma de some sense to me, and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice, but finally, I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn’t think I’d regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision not to try at all.After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, and I’m proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choices.32. What inspired the author with the idea of building an online bookstore?A. His dream of being an inventor.

B. The support of his wife.

C. The greatly increasing usage of the Internet.

D. Millions of exciting titles.33. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?A. The idea of not trying would keep coming to his mind and disturb him.B. He would be very excited if he tried it out.C. He would be always having a doubt if he didn’t try.D. The decision not to try the online bookstore would terrify him.34. We can know from the passage that _______.A. the boss thought the idea was suitable for the authorB. the author wanted someone else to try the ideaC. the author might not regret if he failed the ideaD. the author might go back to his boss if he failed35. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Cleverness and Kindness B. The Starting of AmazonC. Following My Passion D. We Are What We Choose第二节 (共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。How to get motivatedYou must think positively no matter how big a challenge is.
