AOne day, the sewer line （污水管道）under my house burst. My first response was to call the plumber, but when he heard what had happened, he said he couldn't help. “We don't do that,"3he said, as if to suggest that even plumbers have their dignity. He did, however, recommend someone. I made the call, expecting the man to complain at such a miserable job. Instead, he simply asked, "Theaddress?"And that was it. An hour later, Steve arrived in his truck. I watched as he walked down into the damp depths. A few moments later he appeared, s aying, “Yes. It's broken.""Can you fix it?" I asked with a strange mixture of doubt and hope.Steve looked at me strangely as if rebuking my lack of faith, and then said, "Sure." Then he told me that he had to get a backhoe （反铲挖土机）and dig up the street to the main sewer line.I showed appropriate panic. "How long will all this take?""I should have it done by evening."I didn't want to watch the excavation （挖掘）of my property unfold. All I wanted was to leave, go somewhere, and, upon my return, have everything the way it was before the damage.I felt somewhat guilty upon driving off in my clean car, leaving Steve to such a disagreeable task. I went into town and visited a few friends. Eventually, around 6 p.m., my curiosity got the better of me. I went home, and a sweeter sight I never saw: a patch of newly-paved street and a covered-up excavation across my front garden. I opened the basement door and—all was tidy and relatively dry.I sat down on the back garden, lost in thought. I was taken by the very idea that, whatever crisis might happen to an unlucky homeowner, there is somebody, somewhere, who is practiced in its resolution. If that's not reason for thankfulness, Pm not sure what is.21. Why did the first plumber reject the author's request?A. He wanted to protect his dignity.B. He thought the job was unpleasant.C. He had another urgent task to do.D. He was inexperienced in the job.22. What does the underlined word "rebuking" in paragraph 4 mean?A. Admiring.B. Accepting.C. Blaming.D. Neglecting.23. What caused the author to feel upset?A. The difficulty of the repair work.B. The pressure of having to go out.4C. The effects of the broken sewer line.D. The fear of Stevens refusal.24. What was the author's purpose of going into town?A. To satisfy his own curiosity.B. To avoid doing the excavation work.C. To visit a couple of friends.D. To remove his negative emotions.BMore than a billion people around the world have smart phones, almost all of which come with navigation （导航）apps such as Google or Apple Maps. This raises the questions we meet with any technology: What skills are we losing? What abilities are we gaining?Talking with people who're good at finding their way around or using paper maps, I often hear lots of frustration with digital maps. North/South direction gets messed up, and you can see only a small section at a time.But consider what digital navigation aids have meant for someone like me. Despite being a frequent traveler, I'm so terrible at finding my way that I still use Google Maps every day in the small town where I have lived for many years. What looks like an imperfect product to some has been a significant expansion of my own abilities.Part of the problem is that reading paper maps requires specific skills. There is nothing naturalabout them. In many developed nations, including the U. S.,one expects street names and house numbers to be meaningful references, and instructions such as "go north for three blocks and then west” make sense. In Istanbul, in cont rast, where I grew up, none of those hold true. For one thing, the locals rarely use street names. Why bother when a government or a military group might change them again? Besides, the city is full of winding, ancient alleys that meet newer avenues at many angles. Instructions as simple as "go north" would require a helicopter or a bulldozer（推士机）.Let's come back to my original questions. While we often lose some skills after leaving the work to technology, it may also allow us to expand our abilities. Consider the calculator: I don't doubt that our arithmetic skills might have dropped a bit as the little machines became common, but calculations that were once boring and tricky are now much more straightforward and one can certainly do more complex calculations more confidently.525. What is the drawback of digital maps?A. They aren't connected to smart phones.B. They cost too much to download.C. They leave some users frustrated.D. They mix up the south and the north.26. What's the author's attitude toward digital maps?A. DoubtfulB. ambiguousC. SupportiveD. Uncaring.27. What does the author suggest in the last paragraph?A. No calculators, no digital maps.B. Technology is not developed in a day.C. Two paper maps are better than a digital one.D. When technology closes a door, it opens one as well.CWhat do the random, scribbled （潦草的）drawings crowding the margins （页边空白）of most high school students' papers mean? When a student is caught doodling （乱画）in class, he will probably be criticized for daydreaming. But doodling while listening can help with remembering details, rather than implying that the mind is wandering, according to a study published in the scientific journal Applied Cognitive Psychology.In an experiment conducted by the Medical Research Council's Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit in Cambridge, 40 subjects were asked to listen to a two-minute tape giving several names of people and places. Half of the participants were asked to shade in shapes on a piece of paper at the same time, without paying attention to neatness, while the rest were given no such instructions. After the tape had finished, all participants in the study were asked to recall the names of people and places. The doodlers recalled on average 7.5 names of people and places, compared to only 5.8 by the non — doodlers."If someone is doing a boring task, like listening to a dull telephone conversation, they may start to daydream." said study researcher, Professor Jackie Andrade, of the School of Psychology, University of Plymouth. "Daydreaming distracts them from the task, resulting in poorer performance. A simple task, like doodling, may be enough to stop daydreaming without affecting performance on the main task.""In psychology, tests of memory or attention will often use a second task to selectively6block a particular mental process. If that process is important for the main task, then performance will be weakened. But my research suggests that in everyday life doodling may be something we do because it helps to keep us on track with a boring, task, rather than being an unnecessary distraction （分心）that we should try to resist doing." said Andrade.Dan Ware, a social study teacher, used to consider doodling a distraction from learning, but after teaching kids with all personality types he learned scribbling away during lectures helps certain students remember more information. "In my first few years of teaching, I thought, 'Well, this kid isn't paying attention. He's daydreaming.' But I had some really powerful experiences with students and came to understand in many cases that was their way of focusing, and those students were probably paying more attention than other students." Ware said.28. What do we know about the participants involved in the experiment?A. Some were asked to note down the information neatly.B. Some were asked to memorize the names they would hear.C. Some were instructed to listen to the tape with full attention.D. Some were instructed to make random drawings on paper.29. Which of the following will both Jackie Andrade and Dan Ware agree with?A. Doodling helps some people focus.B. Doodling makes a dull task interesting.C. Students who doodle perform poorly.D. Students who doodle lack concentration.30. What is the best title of the text?A. Daydreaming Can Sharpen Study SkillsB. Doodling Can Help Memory RecallC. A Wandering Mind Improves ProductivityD. Distractions Harm Academic Performance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。
