AThe mobile phone rule is just common polite behaviour. Most people today have a mobile phone. In fact, many people can’t imagine how they ever get along without them. However, many people also complain about mobile phone users. People complain about other people loudly discussing personal matters in public places. They complain when mobile phones ring in movie theaters and concert halls. They complain about people driving too slow, and paying no attention to where they are going because they are talking on a mobile phone. And they complain about people walking around talking to people who aren’t there.Whenever a new communication technology becomes popular, it changes the way in which society is organized. Society has to invent rules for the polite way to use the new devices. Our rules of politeness for mobile phones are still evolving.The mobile phone rule applies to most public places. Always try to have your phone ring as low as possible or put your mobile phon e on the vibration（振动） mode, so it does not distract the people around you. The basic mobile phone rule includes:1. Switch it off: Turn it off when you have meetings, worship, and so on.2. Be brief: When you get a call and you’re with friends, keep the call short.3. Permission: Often, it is correct and polite behavior to inform others at the beginning of the meeting that you are expecting an important cal l and get their permission.4. Be polite: Don’t scream — speak in a lower-than-normal voice.5. Don’t distract: Avoid talking where you may be distracting to others.6. Driving: It is not only very dangerous, but also unlawful in most countries to drive and talk on your mobile phone.21. What is the best title for this passage?A. How to use a mobile phone.B.

At that time he was a hard-working, up-and-coming businessman and a real slave-driver, always telling us we had to sell more and more. Assoon as I could, I got a job with another company. The last time I saw Rogers was more thanten years ago. At least that’s what I thought until last Thursday. But now I’m not sosure.I was on my way back to my office in the center of town. There is a small park nearby which I sometimes walk through after lunch. It was almost empty, except for an unshaven, shabby-looking man on one of the benches. He looked about fifty years old and was wearing an old, gray overcoat. It was a cold, wintry day, and he was shivering.“It’s been a long time since I had a meal. Can you help me?” he said. There was something about his voice that sounded familiar. I gave him a few coins and he mumbled something about being grateful. As he stumbled（蹒跚）past me, I looked at his face closely.I wondered where I had se en him before. Then it hit me. Could it possibly be…? No! Impossible, I thought. I watched him walking away. He was the same height as Rogers but looked a lot thinner than I remembered. Then, as he left the part and turned down the street, I caught sight o f his face again, this time from his side. The nose was the same as Rogers’ too.I almost followed him but something made me stop. I just couldn’t be sure. But the resemblance（相似）was very close.Yesterday I ran into someone who had worked for Rogers at the same time I did, and had stayed no longer. I started telling him about the man I had seen in the park. “For a moment I thought it was our old boss. The voice, the nose, and even the face were just like Rogers. But it couldn’t have been. Rogers must be the director of a big company by now.” I said.My ex-colleague shook his head. “I thought you knew.”“Knew? Knew what? What are you talking about?”“Rogers was sent to prison six years ago. He’s probably out by now. For all I know he’s sleeping on park benche s and begging money from passers-by.”29.

Police said that they arrested him because his wife said he had drowned in an accident five and a half years ago. They think he may have disappeared on purpose in order to get his life insurance money. Darwin disappeared after going out to sea in his canoe, which was later found wrecked (触礁) on a beach. A doctor officially declared him dead. Police now plan to ask him where he has been during the last five and a half years.His wife Anne yesterday told reporters she had believed her husband was dead and claimed on his life insura nce policy in good faith. The Daily Mirror reported that a photo of the Darwins was taken in Panama last year when they stayed in an apartment rented through the company Move to Panama. A couple named John and Anne were pictured on the company’s website with the company’s boss Mario Vilar, but Vilar said that they had not used the surname Darwin. Darwin’s aunt, Margaret Burns, 80, told reporters the tr uth may be known “if we wait a bit.”“What’s the point in making a guess when we don’t know? I’m as confused as anybody else about what happens next,” Burns told reporters. “Most of the family believe the trauma (创伤) of nearly drowning in the canoe was enough to make him lose his memory, but I’m not so sure. To be honest, I don’t believe he ever got his feet wet.”32. According to Mrs Darwin, when did Darwin disappear at sea?A. Around October 2002.B. Around May 2003.C. Around March 2002.D. Around October 2003.33. What does Burns mean by saying the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?A. She believes her nephew lost his memory.B. She doesn’t believe her nephew has come back.C.

Darwin’s wife regretted having got her husband’s insurance money.35. What is the best title of the message?A. Dead canoeist found alive.B. A mysterious canoeist.C. Missing canoeist found abroad.D. Missing canoeist arrested by police.第三部分英语知识运用第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）阅读下面的短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
