（共5小题，计10分）In the UK, bus journeys are very common. Buses are often convenient(便利的) for the people who live or work in the city centre. Passengers can avoid heavy traffic and do not have to pay for the parking. However, taking the bus is just a necessary but boring part of life: they get on the bus, pay for it and sit down or find a place to stand when it is crowded. Everyone seems sad and bored. In Latin America, however, bus trips can be wonderful. For a start, films are showed on the buses between cities for passengers to have fun along the journeys. Local buses do not show films, but drivers usually turn on the radio and it can be great for passengers to listen to songs and get relaxed.Even better than films and music are the sights and sounds on the buses. Local buses always go to parts of the town that passengers would not visit by themselves. There passengers can see shops that they have never heard about. And they can also see other cultures of the town from the windows of the buses.Besides, passengers’luggage(行李)is also interesting. It is common to see a happy dog’s head getting out of somebody’s bag or a lovely chicken “speaking cheerfully”under somebody’s arm. Once on a bus in Peru, a farmer even tired a sheep to the top of the bus. It was quite surprising.In all, taking the bus in Latin America is really fun and unforgettable.71.

As people are paying more attention to the environment problems, more companies arelooking for ways to reduce their bad influence on theenvironment. Many of them achieve this by using webmeeting.Web meeting is a technology that allows people tocommunicate better over the Internet. It’s an easy way of hosting and attending a meeting. Participants (与会者)don’t have to leave the office. Each ofthem will receive an invitation with the meeting time and date on it. When the meeting is ready to begin, they must sit before their computers.With web meeting, all participants can attend the meeting at their own desks. They don’t need to drive a car to travel to and from the meeting. As a result, no fuel(燃料) is used and less time is taken up in attending a web meeting.Materials for the meeting are simply e-mailed to all the participants before it begins. Then participants can just read them on the screen. For the company, this is only saves the use of paper but also greatly reduces the mailing cost.As a meeting hall is not used, the only power for a web meeting is the power that is used by the computers. Besides, organizers don’t have to pay for food and accommodation(住宿) for the participants. All this means that less energy is used.In a word, web meeting is a cheaper, greener, and more friendly way of hosting and attending a meeting. Companies that hold web meeting are willing to work hard for a better environment. So they can more easily find their working partners who have the same green ideas. In return, they develop good relationship with other companies and improve their business.根据上面短文内容填空。

The owner wears a special belt(带子). This belt sends instructions to the owner from the dog, such as “Stop here”, “Turn left”or “Turn right”.In the United States, another kind of robot helps disabled people to take care of themselves in their daily life.

Especially, are you an early bird who always wakes up early in the morning, or a night owl(猫头鹰) who almost never goes to bed before midnight? Once you are generally aware of what your sleep characteristics are, you will understand better when your body needs exercise, either early in the morning, sometime during the day, or later on in the evening.Second, consider your daily plan. When do you seem to be most busy, and when do you plan your most important tasks? Try to fit in your exercise before or at least around these events if possible, so that you can keep exercising and your life won’t be affected(影响) as well.Third, think about when you feel you have the most energy. For most people, that time is usually in the morning after a good night’s rest, or after a long day of work. After a busy or much stressful day, exercising can reduce your working stress from hard work.Lastly, find out the place you plan to do exercise. Your house provides exercise at any time if you own fitness equipment(设备)，but if there is a gym(健身房) down the street or along the way home from work, it will make it more suitable for you to exercise.More importantly, you need to make a plan and try sticking to it for one week. If you do so and can get through the exercise without being pulled in another direction, make it a habit. And once you have set up your fitness plan, don’t make any great changes to it unless your doctor37. understanding38. without39. less40. agreement【2015湖南永州】第二节摘录要点(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容填写表格，将信息补充完整，每空不超过3个单词。
