She pauses briefly to write in a nearby notepad before showing her words to a passing café waiter: “Where are the toilets please?”This is a familiar scene in Tokyo’s so-called “silent cafes”, where customers are not allowed to speak, and only communicate by writing in notepads.The concept rises by a desire to be alone among your Japanese, a situation brought by economic uncertainly, a shift in traditional family support structures and the growing social isolation. The phenomenon is not limited to coffee shops but covers everything from silent discos, where participants dance alone wearing wireless headphones connected to the DJ, to products such as small desk tents designed foe conversation-free privacy in the office. One Kyoto company even offers single women the opportunity to have a “one woman wedding”– a full bridal affair, complete with white dress and ceremony, and the only thing missing is the groom. The trend has its own media expression –“botchi-zoku”, referring to individuals who consciously choose to so things completely on their own.One recent weekday afternoon, Chihiro Higashikokubaru, a 23-year-old nurse, travelled 90 minutes from her home, to Tokyo on her day off in order to enjoy some solo time. Speaking quietly at the entrance of the café, Miss Higashikokubaru said: “I heard about this place via Twitter and I like the idea of coming here. I work as a nurse and it’s always very busy. There are very few quiet places in Tokyo, and it’s a big busy city. I just want to come and sit somewhere quietly on my own. I’m going to drink a cup of tea and maybe do some drawings. I like the idea of a quiet, calm atmosphere.”The desire to be isolated is not a new concept in Japan, home to an estimated 3.6 million “hikikomori”– a more extreme example of social recluses(隐士)who withdraw completely from society.24. What is special about the “silent café”?A. It provides various tea and books.B. People are not allowed to communicate.C. It has attracted many popular young people.D. It offers service by writing not by speaking.25. Which of the following accounts for the idea of being alone in Japan?A. The increasing social isolation.B. The stable economic situation.C. The rising demand for privacy.D. The rapid development of internet.26. What do we know about Higashikokubaru?A. She doesn’t like to be a nurse.B. She doesn’t like the life in big cities.C. She enjoys her solo time in a quiet place.D. She travelled to Tokyo on her work days.27. What is the best title of the passage?A. Silent cafesB. Lonely JapaneseC. One woman weddingD. Social recluses in JapanCOne form of social prejudice against older people is the belief that they cannot understand or use modern technology. Activities like playing computer games, going on the Net and downloading MP3s are only for the youngsters. Isn’t it unfair that older people enjoying a computer game should be frowned(皱眉)upon by their children and grandchildren?Nowadays older people have more control over their lives and they play a full part in society. Moreover, better health care has left more people in their sixties and seventies feeling fit and active after retirement. Mental activity, as well as physical exercise, can contribute to better health. Playing computer games is a very effective way of exercising the brain.When personal computers were first introduced, most older people didn’t believe they would ever familiarize themselves with it. Now computers have been around for a few generations and retired people have gradually become more relaxed about using them for fun. Gamers over 65 prefer playing puzzle games and card games. Kate Stevens, aged 72, says: “I find it very relaxing. It’s not very demanding, but you still need to concentrate.”Another development that has favored “grey games” is a change in the type of videogames available on the market. There’s a greater variety of games to choose from, including more intellectual and complex strategy(策略)and simulation(模拟)games. Internet Chess andTrain Simulator are among the most popular of these. Train Simulator is based on real-world rail activities. Players can choose from a variety of challengers, such as keeping to a strict-timetable and using helper engines during a winter storm.Some people argue that “grey gamers”simply don’t have the skills required for computer games, and that teenagers are better. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Most computer games require the kind of analytical thinking that improves with practice, which means that the “grey gamers: may well be far better than gamers half a century younger than them. In games where speed is the main consideration, older people would be at a disadvantage because they may have slower reaction time. On the other hand, “grey gamers”have a preference for shower paced, mind challenging games.28. The second paragraph is intended to ________.A. show the best way to exercise the brainB. stress the importance of good healthC. explain why grey gamers existD. teach how to play videogames29. What was older people’s attitude towards personal computers at first?A. DoubtfulB. ConcernedC. EnthusiasticD. Supportive30. The method the author uses to develop Paragraph 4 is ________.A. offering analysesB. giving examplesC. making comparisonsD. providing details31. By saying “This couldn’t be further from the truth.” in Paragraph 5, the author means ________.A. mind challenging games are not suitable for older peopleB. children should improve their skills with practiceC. playing computer games requires analytical thinkingD. older people can perform well in some computer gamesDIn the mid-2000s, Waze Mobile co-founder Ehud Shabtai received a cutting-edge(尖端的)gift from his girlfriend: a GPS. The expensive gift was supposed to be helpful. But straight out of the box, it was already out of date.Shabtai, a coding enthusiast, had an immediate reaction to reinvent. Shabtai’s solution? To build an app. With 50 million monthly active users globally and nearly 400,000 superusers whofunction much like Wikipedia volunteer editors (editing maps rather than words), Waze Mobile caught the eye of Google as a revolutionary approach to navigation(导航).Acquired by Google in 2013, Waze’s value mainly lies in its high rate of user involvement. Unlike traditional navigation apps that simply show directions, Waze asks its users to report accidents and other road conditions in real time, so other users can avoid the traffic by using an alternative route.The goal behind Waze’s approach is an ambitious one: not just avoid traffic, but end it altogether. Waze is finding new ways to put its loyal and active user base to use to make that vision a reality, including a plan to make carpooling(拼车)cool.To be sure, traffic jams are troubling people all over the world. Waze has been quietly ahead of the game for some time. In 2013, when Waze was just a small digital-mapping business with limited resources, it had something Google Maps and other competitors didn’t: richer GPS guidance thanks to its stream of live traffic reports from users.These users were the basis of Shabtai’s plan to solve for his GPS device’s “silent” hardware: he grounded the app in software that could be perpetually updated by users, anywhere and anytime.Waze Carpool is going straight to the heart of traffic jams, trying to get more drivers off the road and into carpools. The app has already connected tens of thousands of rideseekers with drivers willing to ferry them along a shared route, and that trend could be the answer to a traffic-free future.32. What did Shabtai do when he found his girlfriend’s gift out of date?A. He improved it.B. He took it apart.C. He put it away.D. He used it anyway.33. What sets Waze Mobile apart from traditional navigation apps?A. It has the most users.B. It can indicate directions.C. It reports road conditions in real time.D. Most users help edit its words.34. What does the underlined word in paragraph 6 probably mean?A. DifficultyB. CarefullyC. GreatlyD. Constantly35. What is mainly talked about in the text?A. The rise of carpooling.B. An advanced navigation app.C. The development of Google.D. Traffic problems in the world.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最佳选项。

At a height of almost 310 metres, it is the tallest building in Europe. The Shard has completely changed the appearance of London. However, not everyone thinks that it is a change for the better.The Shard was designed by the famous Italian architect Renzo Piano. When he began designing the Shard for London, Piano wanted a very tall building that looked like a spire (尖顶). He wanted the glass surfaces to reflect the sky and the city. The sides of the building aren’t regular. So the building has an unusual shape. It looks like a very thin, sharp piece of broken glass. And that is how the building got the name: the Shard. Piano says that the spire shape of the Shard is part of a great London tradition. The shape reminds him of the spires of the churches of London or the tall masts (桅杆) of the ships that were once on the river Thames.The Shard has 87 floors. At the top, there is an observatory. At the moment the building is empty, but eventually there will be a five-star hotel. There will also be top quality restaurants, apartments and offices.Before building work began, a lot of people didn’t want the Shard though the plans were approved.Now they are still unhappy about the Shard. Some critics say that such a tall skyscraper might be goodin a city like New York, but not in London. They say that the best thing about the Shard is its spire shape. But that is the only thing. There is no decoration, only flat surfaces. The Egyptians did that 4,500 years ago. They also think the Shard is too big for London. It destroys the beauty of the city.Other critics don’t like what the Shard seems to represent. They say that the Shard shows how London is becoming more unequal. Only very rich people can afford to buy the expensive private apartments and stay in the hotel. But the people who live near the Shard are among the poorest in London. So the Shard seems a symbol of the division in society between the very rich and the poor.The Shard now dominates the London skyline. It is not certain, however, that ordinary London citizens will ever accept it as a valuable addition to the city.21.London’s newest skyscraper is called the Shard because of ______.A. its costB. its sizeC. its shapeD. its height22.When he designed the Shard, Piano wanted it to ______.A. change London’s skylineB. inherit London’s traditionC. imitate the Egyptian styleD. attract potential visitors23.The critics who refer to social division think the Shard ______.A. is only preferred by the richB. is intended for wealthy peopleC. is far away from the poor areaD. is popular only with Londoners24.Which would be the best title for the passage?A. The Shard: Cheers and ClapsB. The Shard: Work of a Great ArchitectC. The Shard: New Symbol of London?D. The Shard: A Change for the Better?BIn 1943, when I was 4, my parents moved from Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, to Fairbanks, Alaska, where adventure was never far away.We arrived in the summer, just in time to enjoy the midnight sun. All that sunlight was fantastic for Mom’s vegetable garden. Work ing in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off, so she didn’t care much about my bedtime.Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was his clerk. That left me in a mess. I usually managed to find some trouble to get into. Once I had a little fire going in the dirt basement of a hotel. I had tried to light a barrel(桶)of paint but couldn’t really get a good fire going. The smoke got pretty bad, though, and when I made my exit, a crowd and the police were there to greet me. The policemen took my matches and drove me home.Mom and Dad were occupied with the garden and Dad told the police to keep me, and they did! I had a tour of the prison before Mom rescued me. I hadn’t turned 5 yet.As I entered kindergarten, the serious cold began to set in. Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail at school?As for Leonhard Seppala, famous as a dog sledder(驾雪橇者), I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday. At the time I did n’t realize what a superstar he was, but I did remember the ride well. I was wrapped(包裹)heavily and well sheltered from the freezing and blowing weather.In 1950, we moved back to Coeur d’Alene, but we got one more Alaskan adventure when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to attend a gathering of former neighbors of Alaska.25.What can be inferred about the author’s family?A.

Segerstrom is coauthor of a recent review o f studies on the benefits of a positive attitude---and has experienced them herself. We asked her about optimism’s principles and payoffs(结局).Feeling well helps when you’re not well.“When researchers look at people who have similar medical conditions, they can predict who’s likely to live longer: the one who feels his health is better. There’s something about that feeling of wellness that’s important, even--maybe especially--if you’re ill. Optimism also seems to help buffer (减缓) you agai nst stress. I’ve been studying first-year law students for 16 years. That’s a very stressed group, but in my most recent study, each time a student’s optimism increased one point on a five-point scale, his immune (免疫性的) response to an injected virus or yeast improved by 20 percent.”Optimism is something you do.“Anxiety and other negative emotions are known to be detrimental to the body, especially to your cardiovascular and immune systems (心血管和免疫系统), and having an optimistic nature seems to protect against those effects.In addition, research shows that people who are optimistic about their future behave differently. They exercise more, are less likely to smoke, and follow a better diet. And if they get sick, they’re more likely to actively participate in their treatmen t. I’ve seen that myself--I have back pain from arthritis, but I think my willingness to do whatever it takes has helped a lot.”Not happy? Don’t worry.“Happiness is a feeling; optimism is a belief that aspects of your future will turn out well. Happines s can fluctuate (波动) a lot, but an optimistic disposition (性格) is usually pretty stable. If you’re not optimistic, you can try creating a ‘positive events’ log(日志). Good filings happen to everyone, but pessimists often don’t take notice; spending a few min utes every day writing about at least three positive things may help you expect them more often. Or instead of trying to be optimistic, do whatoptimists do: Work hard to reach your goals. Each accomplishment should make it easier to be hopeful about t he next one.”33.The main finding of the study done by Suzaane Segerstrom is ________.A. people will benefit from their positive attitudes towards lifeB. anyone who feels his health is better lives longerC. people who are optimistic about their future behave differentlyD. happiness usually results in a bright future34.What conclusion did Suzanne Segerstrom draw from her studies on her fast-year law students?A.
