Restauran ts ran out of food and drink and drinking fountains were in short supply…All in front of a national audience of 90 million, then the largest live broadcast in television history on a day that would be known in Disney history as Black Sunday.But Disney's story actually started two decades earlier with what Walt Disney called "Daddy's Day". On Saturdays in the 1930s and 1940s, Disney would take his two daughters to ride the Griffith Park merry﹣go﹣round, which they'd enjoy while he sat on a bench dreaming of ways for families to have fun together. Disney disliked the amusement parks they often visited, seeing them as dirty, unimaginative places run by rude employees.He thought he could do better. In 1939 he asked two________ （动画片制作者） at his movie studio to work on a plan for an amusement park. By 1952 the idea had expanded into a ＄1.5 million amusement park proposal that he presented to Burbank. The City Council, which feared such a project would create a________（嘉年华） atmosphere, rejected the proposal. Disney counted the rejection as a fortunate setback. By now, his dream for a theme park had gone beyond the space available in Burbank. He searched locations throughout Southern California. A 160﹣acre orange garden, 22 miles south of LosAngeles, was soon selected.The ABC television network offered ＄5 million in loans and investments if Disney agreed to produce and host a one﹣hour weekly show called "Disneyland". The deal amounted to months of free advertising for the park and allowed Disney to introduce TVaudiences, particularly kids, to the park.Disneyland opened then. The 5, 000 expected guests increased to 28, 154, thanks to fake tickets. After the madness of opening day, Disney and his new park were criticized in the press. The media predicted a quick and early end. But the public didn't listen. Visitors arrived in large groups, and within weeks Disneyland was a success.Over sixty years later, Disneyland's popularity continues to grow, with total overall attendance topping 700 million and showing no signs of slowing down.（1）What mainly led to Walt Disney's plan to build his own amusement park？________A His ambition to expand beyond the movie industry.B His animators' suggestion on an entertainment plan.C His wish to create a better place for familyrecreation. D His daughters' unpleasant experience in the Griffith Park.．（2）By "Disney counted the rejection as a fortunate setback" in paragraph 3， the author means the rejection________.A brought good luck to Disney and his parkB contributed to the difficulty of opening the parkC was viewed as a financial obstacle to the design of the parkD presented Disney with a favorable opportunity to rethink his plan．（3）What can be learned about Disneyland from the passage？________A Everything went on smoothly before it opened.B It spent ＄5 million on advertising for its opening.C People's enthusiasm for it increased despite criticism.D Only invited guests could get into it on its opening day.．（4）Which is the best title for the passage？________A Disneyland： How It All BeganB Disneyland： An OvernightSuccess C Disneyland： How It Developed D Disneyland： A Park with a Long History．5.TV VOICE PROAIR＄299 USDHearing Specialists Develop New Ultra﹣Lightweight（超轻的） TV Listening Earbuds（耳塞）: At just Half an Ounce, they Weigh90% Less than Traditional TV Headphones!

A new study suggests the Apple Watch was able to identify abnormal heart rates that could be linked to a serious heart condition.More than 400, 000 Apple Watch users volunteered for the study. It was a project of researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine. Apple, the American technology company, provided money for the study. Results were recently presented at a major conference on heart health in New Orleans, Louisiana.The researchers looked for signs of atrial fibrillation, also called "a﹣fib", the most common form of irregular heartbeat. Some people with a﹣fib feel changes in their heartbeat, while others do not. Because of this, many people do not know they have the condition. People with untreated a﹣fib are about five times more likely to suffer a stroke（中风）. In the United States, a﹣fib causes an estimated 130, 000 deaths and 750, 000 hospitalizations each year.People taking part in the study wore the Apple Watch for extended periods. The devices contain an app that continuously gathers information without users having to do anything. It uses the watch's light sensor technology to measure blood flow. The system is designed to identify changes that might show an irregular heartbeat.The researchers said that out of those taking part, about 2, 000 subjects（实验对象）received a warning from the device that they might have a problem. Those individuals were then asked to contact a doctor, who decided whether they should receive more close watch for a possible irregular heartbeat.Lloyd Minor, head of Stanford's School of Medicine, said in a statement that the results show great promise in using technology to create "more predictive and preventive health care". Doctor Minor added that a﹣fib is just one example of a condition devices can help identify in the future. "This study opens the door to further research into wearable technologies and how they might be used to prevent disease before it strikes, " he said.But some health researchers warned against making any general judgements based on the Apple﹣financed study. They have called for much more research to measure the effectiveness of wearable devices to identify signs of disease. Richard Kovacs, who was with the American College of Cardiology and was not involved with the study, told the Associated Press that despite the results, the Apple Watch system "is not perfect." He noted that since the study did not have a comparison group getting regular ECG measurements, there is no way of knowing if the device missed heartbeat problems. This could give users a false sense of security, he said.Other experts agreed that more studies are needed before similar device﹣based health observation systems are widely recommended.（1）What does the new study mainly find out？________A Apple Watch can warn of heart problems.B Apple Watch can protect people against a ﹣fib.C Abnormal heart rates can cause a stroke.D Heart problems can be identified and cured.．（2）Apple Watch identifies irregular heartbeats by________.A measuring the wearer's heart ratesB sending information to the wearer through an appC extending the time of wearing itD monitoring the wearer's bloodstream．（3）Which of the following might be what Lloyd Minor means in his statement？________ A It's difficult for doctors to predict and prevent disease now. B A﹣fib is just one example of a condition that causes heart problems. C Wearable technologies might identify and treat any disease one day. D There are more possibilities of development in wearable technology.．（4）It can be concluded from the passage that________.A wearable technologies are developing fast but shouldn't be applied to medicineB the study results are inspiring but more proofs are needed to ensure the accuracyC the study is sponsored by a commercial company so the results are a little unfairD device﹣based health observation systems are convenient and should be widely used．Section C Directions:Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.7.survive without human interaction.Sculpture with a Life of Its OwnThere is a new type of animal that has been walking along the beaches since the 1990s. They are called Strandbeest， which is Dutch for beach beast.（1）________ They are creations of Dutch artist Theo Jansen， and they can move themselves using nothing more than the power of the wind. Jansen has even created a way for his beasts to "eat" the air， and store its power by pressurizing bottles. This stored power also allows the sculptures to detect when they have entered the water and change their direction. He has even devised a method for them to stop themselves in the sand if a storm is approaching!The beauty of these creations is that they have no electronic parts，yet they have a basic logic system that helps them walk in their habitat. Jansen's creations look alive as they move with a steady， even motion on the hard sand. Every year， he improves his designs.（2）________Jansen's kinetic sculptures use an innovative design to transform simple motions into amazing works of art. The Strandbeests have a mechanical linkage that creates a walking motion using triangles（三角形物体）. The sculptures are large but have a delicate appearance. The fascinating combinations of thin tubes and fine fin﹣like（像鳍一样的）sails moving in the breeze create a striking image. One could easily believe they are some sort of strange lifeform walking along the beach.（3）________ He created a beast， named Animaris Rhinoceros Lignatus， which was made out of wood and weighed 250 kilograms. （4）________There are many artists that use motion to create spectacular visual effects. Some are large pieces， but many can sit on a desk or hang on a wall. However， they all have one thing in common： you can't appreciate their artistry until you see them move. Jansen also sells mini versions of some of his beasts. They come in boxes that you can assemble without any special tools. You，too，can try your hand at creating kinetic art!IV.Summary Writing8. Directions： Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point（s）of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Train Your BrainWhen was the last time something important slipped your mind？Fortunately，memory can be improved. People's ability to remember has less to do with natural talent than it does with training and practice.When students want to prepare for a test，they often try to study by simply reading over the material again，copying notes，etc. But these methods of remembering are not always effective. People remember more when they actively engage with the material they are learning rather than passively receiving it. One great way to do this is to test yourself on the material. Come up with questions about the topic，and try to answer them without lookingat your notes. It also helps to try to engage with the material in different ways. For example，you could write your own outline or study guide. The more you use the information， the more likely you are to remember it.My music instructor said that it's better to practice for five minutes a day， seven days a week， than for two hours on one day. The same goes for remembering information. The more you spread out the time you spend reviewing information， the more likely you are to remember it.A psychologist，Hermann Ebbinghaus，made an important discovery about memory and forgetting. He found that people tend to forget information in a regular pattern. They forget the most information shortly after learning it. The rate at which they forget then slows down over time. Every time the person reviews the information， it causes them to forget less of it﹣which means they remember more. So it is essential to review things you want to remember shortly after learning them. Over time， you can review them less and less frequently.Applying these strategies will help improve your memory so that you can access everything you learn whenever you need it.V.

D.disappointingSection BDirections:Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that firs best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Every year,the Palace of Fine Arts Theatre in San Francisco fills up with dance lovers.They come to take in experimental works of art that all have one thing in common-hip hop.This weekend the San Francisco Intentional Hip Hop DanceFest celebrates20years of presenting electrifying hip hop performances.Each DanceFest has diversity(多样化)of style and group size,and a balance of local and out-of-town companies.From Vietnam to Brazil to Uganda to the Czech Republic,the festival has drawn impressive international talent.After a long process,only the most exceptional companies are flown in for DanceFest.In fact,outstanding technical dance skills are only a basic standard that the festival organizers are looking for.They look for much more-groups or artists that think outside the box.Artists that use hip hop in a theatrical way or to address social issues are sure to stand out.For instance,the2010 performance"Tables and Chairs"served to underline the negative effects of alcoholism on society.It would be terribly irresponsible not to mention the founder,Micaya,in any introduction to DanceFest.A popular hip hop dance instructor,Micaya began producing high energy dance shows in the heart of San Francisco in1993.Students of all ages and backgrounds love her classes so much that a San Francisco newspaper once described her as"Best Dance Instructor".However,Micaya was concerned about the then dubious reputation of hip hop.She made it her goal to get hip hop the same recognition and respect as other danceforms.In1999she started DanceFest.It was the first festival of its kind to honor the creativity of hip hop dance in a non-competitive atmosphere.To Micaya,competitive rules leave little room for the magic that comes from true expression.One review said,Micaya's festival challenges us"to reconsider just how diverse and embracing hip hop can now be."Indeed,Micaya brings out the best in dancers,and has given San Francisco one of its finest festivals.56.What is the passage mainly about?A.The creativity of hip hop.B.The characteristics and the history of DanceFest.C.The best instructor of hip hop.D.The unique rules and the challenge of DanceFest.57.Hip hop dancers are more likely to be chosen for Dancefest if they can not only dance skillfully but alsoA.dance on the outside of the boxB.give up drinking alcohol before dancingC.handle social problems with their danceD.show their technical dance skills in theaters58.By"dubious reputation"in the last paragraph,the author means hip hop back then.A.was forbidden in publicB.was considered something badC.received too much attention/doc/5a69f80074c66137ee06eff9aef8941ea76e4bf8.html cked creativity and competition59.What can be concluded about DanceFest?A.It is a competition for hip hop dancers.B.It is a dance festival for various dance forms.C.It is successful in popularizing hip hop.D.It is better respected than other dance festivals.60.The passage can most probably be found in the part"_____"in a school's admissions booklet.A.Application ProceduresB.Terms and ConditionsC.Frequently Asked QuestionsD.Acknowledgement and Declaration61.What can be learned about tuition fees?A.Tuition fees are usually paid after pupils get their school reports.B.Tuition fees can be paid according to the number of days attended.C.The refundable deposit can be used to pay the tuition after the due date.D.A pupil may be removed from school if part of his tuition fees is overdue.62.It can be inferred from the passage that_____A.a pupil can withdraw from the school as soon as his guardian gives a written noticeB.the refundable deposit should be paid after the pupil begins study in the schoolC.both the school and the guardian can determine the pupil's place in the schoolD.the school's admissions and entry policies remain the same all these years(C)Data centres and smartphones will be the most damaging information and communications technologies(ICT)to the environment by2040,according to new research from W Booth School's Lotfi Belkhir.At the end of winter term in2014,Lotfi Belkhir was approached by a student taking his Total Sustainability and Management course who asked,"What does software sustainability mean?"The Entrepreneurship and Innovation Associate Professor at the W Booth School of Engineering Practice and Technology didn't have an answer. Belkhir teaches students to think creatively about sustainability tools that can be applied to their ventures,But his tools,at the time,mainly applied to hardware,not software. The student's question inspired Belkhir's latest research on the global emissions footprint of information and communications technology.Belkhir,along with Ahmed Elmeligi,a recent W Booth graduate and co-founder of HiNT(Healthcare Innovation in Neuro Technology).studied the carbon footprint of consumer devices such as smartphones,laptops,tablets,desktops as well as data centres and communication networks as early as2005.Their findings were published in the Journal of Cleaner Production.Not only did they discover that software is driving the consumption of ICT,they also found that ICT has a greater impact on emissions than we thought and most emissions come from production and operation."For every text message,for every phone call,every video you upload or download.there's a data contract making this happen."Belkhir explains."Telecommunications networks and data centres consume a lot of energy to serve you and most data centres continue to be powered by electricity produced by traditional fuels,It’s the energy consumption we don't see."Among all the devices,trends suggest that by2020,the most damaging devices to the environment are smartphones.While smartphones consume little energy to operate,85%of their emissions impact comes from production.A smartphonc's chip and motherboard(芯⽚和主板)require the most amount of energy to produce as they are made up of precious metals that are mined at a highcost.Smartphones also have a short life which drives further production of new models and an extraordinary amount of waste.Belkir has made policy recommendations based on his findings."Communication and data centres have to go under renewable energy now.The good news is Google and Facebook data ccntres are going to run on renewable energy.But there needs to be a policy in place so that all data centres follow.Also,it's not sustainable to have a two-year plan for smartphones."63.The story between Lotfi Belkhir and his student in2014was mentioned to____.A.explain the importance of software sustainabilityB.illustrate the inspiration for Belkhir's latest researchC.reveal the damaging impact of ICT on the environmentD.show Belkhir's student's crcativity and critical thinking64.One reason why smartphones may be the most damaging devices of all to the environment by 2020is that_______.A.they are more precious than other devicesB.they drive the greatest consumption of ICTC.they are frequently replaced by new modelsD.they need large amounts of energy to operate65.To reduce the emission of ICT,Lotfi Belkhir suggests that_____.A.longer plans be made to create renewable data centresB.sustainable materials be invented to produce smartphonesC.policies bc established to advocate everlasting smartphonesD.green energy be used to operate communication and data centres66.What is the main idea of the passage?A.ICT does greater harm to the environment than thought.B.Software can do irreversible damage to the environment.C.Software is more damaging to the environment than hardware.D.ICT will have the greatest impact on the environment by2040.Section CDirections:Read the following passage,Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Growing Food from Air in NigeriaA group of farmers in Nigeria is using a technology-based method to grow crops from mist(⽔汽)in the air.The method,known as aeroponics,does not involve soil.Instead,plant roots hang in the air.The roots take in nutrients from a watery mist.Aeroponics is not well-known in Nigeria,but farmers there are working to make the technique more popular.(67)___________________Biochemist Samson Ogbole is popularly known as Nigeria’s smart farmer.He and his team are growing cropswithout soil at the technology-based farm they started three years ago in Abeokuta.Ogbole says they are on a campaign to end seasonal food scarcity in Nigeria."Because we are the ones controlling everything that the plant requires,we are not depending on seasons.So it's no longer seasonal farming.It is just farming anytime of the year,meaning we can plant anytime of the year, and we can harvest anytime of the year.(68)___________________It required financing of more than$180,000.And some people in Abeokuta were very much against this non-traditional method of farming.It took a lot of effort to change people’s minds about aeroponics.In Nigeria,about30million hectares(公顷)of farmland is being use,instead of the78.5million hectares required for food security.In the north,only49percent of the land is fertile,a situation that worries traditional farmers.(69)___________________Nutrients for the plants are controlled by a recycling system,greatly increasing productivity.Philip Ojo is director general of Nigeria's National Agricultural Seeds Council.He says the government welcomes new farming methods.Ojo noted that with aeroponics,farmers can quickly increase planting materials.So,his group strongly supports the technology.The agricultural industry represents about40percent of Nigeria’s economy.(70)___________________For now,most farmers lack the technical knowledge to increase productivity.They also need access to high-quality seeds to guarantee better harvests. Technologically skilled farmers like Samson Ogbole are offering a new way forward.IV.Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage.Summarize the main idea and the main point(s)of the passage in no more/doc/5a69f80074c66137ee06eff9aef8941ea76e4bf8.html e your own words as far as possible.Giving ThanksThis is the season for taking the time lo reflect on what we’re thankful for in life.Spending that time with friends and family to give thanks is what makes the holidays so special.But why should we limit it to just a few weeks in the years?Gratitude is a muscle we should strengthen year-round to make us healthier,happier humans and leaders. Emmons,through his research,found that grateful people reported feeling healthier,both mentally and physically.Specifically,those who were grateful were25percent happier than those who weren’t.In the workplace,well-being is a crucial topic when it comes to preventing employee burn-out and promoting engagement.Beyond the research that shows that employees who are shown that they are appreciated are more productive by50percent,caring for your employees' well-being is simply the right thing to do.Providing programs that support managing life s everyday challenges,offering fitness classes o implementing flexible work schedules are just a few things that,when paired with gratitude,can lead to more productive,engaged and happier working professionals.Working in an ever-evolving,fast-paced industry,I am surrounded by ambitious people who are always striving for more and better.Gratitude challenges you to reflect in the moment instead of always thinking about the future.It starts by paying attention to what's going on in your life,and that true self-awareness is a key ingredient to being successful in your career.Gratitude is a powerful tool for strengthening relationships,both at work and in your personal life.People who express their gratitude tend to be more willing to forgive others and therefore able to create long-lasting connections.The old saying goes"It's never too late to say you're sorry."but the same is true of gratitude. That’s a gift worth celebrating365days a year.V.TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into /doc/5a69f80074c66137ee06eff9aef8941ea76e4bf8.html ing the words given in the brackets.72.出于好奇，杰克向村民们打听了这座城堡的历史。

The passages and the conversation will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one is the best answer to the question you have heard.Questions are based on the following passage.音频11.A. Napping may help prevent seniors’ memory loss.B. Sleep is good for us both mentally and physically.C. Many Americans do not want to admit they take a nap.D. T aking naps is very common in other parts of the world.12.A. They are afraid of becoming lazy.B. They don’t think napping is common.C. They are too energetic to need a nap.D. They don’t want to be consi dered weak.13.A. Napping is not as effective for people with sleep disorders.B. Napping cafes have been quite common in American cities.C. Resting in the middle of the work day may cost a lot of money.D. Many Americans are changing their offices into napping rooms.【答案】11. A 12. D 13. A【解析】March 16 is International Sleep Day. And we should all celebrate the act of sleeping. Studies have shown that a good night’s rest helps us stay healthy, both mentally and physically. And researchers say sleep is probably the best tool we have for memory and learning.But what about getting rest during the middle of the day？ Short periods of sleep may help older people fight off age-related memory loss, says a recent study on napping.Many Americans do nap. But one-third of all adults in the United States have sleep disorders. So, someone who naps as a way of paying off a sleep debt may not experience the sameimprovements from napping as a healthy, well-rested person would.Also, many people may not want to admit that they take a nap. They may think that napping shows they are weak or lack energy. That only children, the very old, sick or lazy people nap is not an uncommon opinion.However, that may be changing. Many offices now offer napping rooms, and napping cafes are appearing in many U.S. cities, including Washington, D.C.While resting in the middle of the work day may seem like a luxury to Americans, napping is very much part of a normal, everyday life in other parts of the world.Questions:What does the recent study show？Why do many Americans refuse to admit they take a nap？What is implied in the passage？【11题详解】此题为听力题，解析略。

The study was a project of researchers in theUnited Statesthat was ongoing for over 13 years. They asked nearly 2,300 men and women to identify 12 common smells. All the subjects were from 71 to 82 years of age. The researchers gave the adults scores, from 0 to as high as 12, based on how many smells they identified correctly.During the years of follow-up investigation, over 1,200 of the subjects died. When the study was launched, none of the adults were weak. They could walk a little under half a kilometer, climb 10 steps and independently complete daily activities. In the latest findings, the researchers noted that those with a weak nose were 30 percent more likely to die than people with a good sense of smell. The findings were reported last month in the scientific publication Annals of Internal Medicine.Honglei Chen, a doctor withMichiganStateUniversityinEast Lansing,Michigan, was the lead writer of a report on the study. He said the connection between a poor sense of smell and an increased risk of dying was limited to adults who first reported good-to-excellent health. This suggests that a poor sense of smell is an early and sensitive sign for worsening health before it is recognizable in medical tests. With a poor sense of smell, people are more likely to die of brain and heart diseases, but not of cancer or breathing disorders.The results also suggest that a poor sense of smell may be an early warning for poor health in older age that goesbeyond dementia or other neurodegenerative(神经变性的) diseases. These often signal the beginning of a weakening of the mind or body.4. What do you know about the study mentioned?A. The study involved researchers from the world.B. All the participants were of different ages.C. The study began to be performed about 13 years ago.D. 2 ,300 men and women were young and healthy.5. What was the situation like at the beginning of the study?A. More than 1,200 of the participants passed away.B. Many of the subjects were found with health problems.C. All the subjects were independent of others when walking.D. One third of the participants had a poor smell sense.6. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?A. People with a poor sense of smell have heart disease.B. You should be careful with your health if you smell poorly.C. People with a poor sense of smell won't suffer from cancer.D. Most of the elder people may have the dementia disease.7. Which is the best title for the passage?A. Strong Sense of Smell May Be Linked to Longer LifeB. Old People Tend to Have a Poor Sense of SmellC. A Number of Factors Result in Longer LifeD. Being Ill Means Losing the Sense of SmellCWhen you walk on a sandy beach, it takes more energy than striding down a sidewalk — because the weight of your body pushes into the sand. Turns out, the same thing is true for vehicles driving on roads. The weight of the vehicles creates a very shallow indentation (凹陷) in the pavement (路面) — and it makes it such that it’s continuously driving up a very shallow hill.Jeremy Gregory, a sustainability scientist at M.I.T. and histeam modeled how much energy could be saved — and green-house gases avoided — by simply stiffening (硬化) the nation’s roads and highways. And they found that stiffening 10 percent of the nation’s roads every year could prevent 440 megatons of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions over the next five decades — enough to offset half a percent of projected transportation sector emissions over that time period. To put those emissions savings into context — that amount is equivalent tohow much CO2 you’d spare the planet by keeping a billion barrels of oil in the ground — or by growing seven billion trees — for a decade.The results are in the Transportation Research Record.As for how to stiffen roads? Gregory says you could mix small amounts of synthetic fibers orcarbon nanotubes into paving materials. Or you could pave with cement-based concrete, which is stiffer than asphalt (沥青).This system could also be a way to shave carbon emissions without some of the usual hurdles. Usually, when it comes to reducing emissions in the transportation sector, you’re talking about changing policies related to vehicles and also driver behavior, which involves millions and millions of people — as opposed to changing the way we design and maintain our pavements. That’s just on the order of thousands of people who are working in transportation agencies. And when it comes to retrofitting (翻新) our streets and highways —those agencies are where the rubber meets the road.8. Why does the author mention “walk on a sandy beach” in paragraph 1?A. To present a fact.B. To make a contrast.C. To explain a rule.D. To share an experience.9. What suggestion does the author give to reduce CO2 emissions?A. Hardening the road.B. Keeping oil in the ground.C. Growing trees for decades.D. Improving the transportation.10. What is the advantage of this suggestion?A. Gaining more support.B. Consuming less money.C. Involving more people.D. Facing fewer usual obstacles.11. What does the underlined part mean in the last paragraph?A.Those agencies are likely to make more rules.B. Those agencies will change some related policies.C. Those agenciesmight put more rubber tires on the roads.D. Those agencies will play a key role in making this happen.DNextdoor，an online social network for neighbors，says it has attracted $60 million from early backers of technology giants，Google，Amazon and Facebook.The new investment，1ed by venture firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers and investment firm Tiger GlobalManagement，values Nextdoor at more than $500 million，said a personfamiliar with the matter.Nextdoor members make Facebook-style postings，giving or seeking recommendations for services such as babysitters and yard maintenance or local retailers and restaurants. They also post about community issues such as parking，crimeand safety，or items for sale or loan.The investment sum emphasizes the appeal of businesses that can tap into the growing use of mobile devices，as well as social networking Perhaps the best current example is Twitter，which is preparing for an initial public offering that values the company at up to about $11 billion.“We’re all spending more time with our screens，more engaged，but I think data shows we’re less connected，”said John Doerr of Kleiner Perkins，mentioning his own experience of knowing few of his neighbors. Nextdoor，with its ability to introduce neighbors to each other，helps people regain the sense of connection，he said.Early next year，Nextdoor plans to expand to Canada，followed by Great Britain，Australia，and South Africa，chief executive NiravTolia said. While Nextdoor has not yet have made any profit after two years of operations，Tolia said he is not worried.“If we look at the great companies at this stage，none of them started to monetize this early in their evolution. ”Tolia said. “It’s all about getting the product right. ”Eventually，Nextdoor plans to tap into local advertising，he said.Nextdoor is currently used in 22，527 neighborhoods across the United States，up from 5，694 a year ago. Including the latest funding round，it has raised just over $100 million.12. What attitude do the early backers of technology grant hold towards Nextdoor?A. They doubt its value.B. They think poorly of it.C. They are in favor of it.D. They are worried about it.13. What is mainly discussed about Nextdoor in Paragraph 3?A. Its members.B. Its service.C. Its value.D. Its location.14. What is the author’s purpose of mentioning Twitter in Paragraph 4?A. To support his viewpoint.B. To post an advertisement.C. To introduce a network.D. To makea public offer.15. How does Nirav Tolia feel about the future of Nextdoor?A. Curious.B. Upset.C. Cautious.D. Optimistic.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
