The first MP4 player was born years ago. Soon many music fans were wondering how fantastic it is! If you have been into technology enough, perhaps you may have a knowledge of the MP4. If not, you do need to know something before buying one, even if you are familiar with MP3. MP3 is the CD-like disc with greater capacity. How about MP4? This small digital product will really enrich the joy from listening to music. You can even feel the “touch” of music to your soul!
Now, some similar digital products advertised as “MP4 player” are simply MP3 players, which do not play video and MPEG format and also lack other particular functions. These products confuse some buyers, as they may think the “MP4” players simply mean they can do more than MP3.
What is MP4?
It is a multimedia container. It is not only used to store digital audio and digital video streams, especially those of MPEG, but can also be used to store other data such as subtitles and pictures. As a most modern container format, it allows streaming over the Internet.
With the help of a piece of MP4 video equipment, you can change various programs such as MPEG to MP4, ASX to MP4, AVI to MP4 and so on, which can be done very quickly and easily without any effect on the sound quality. By installing DVD-MP4 software, you can transfer particular music from a DVD to an MP4 video file. It really excites your listening music experience.
Then, there is MP4 advanced and you can set your own collection of all the programs—TV shows, games, and music. You can even see movies which are still running in cinema. What else digital product could you possibly ask for?
小題1:. It is suggested here that you should ______ before buying an MP4 player.
A．first be a music fanB．have a knowledge of MP4
C．get familiar with MP3D．buy a CD-like disc
小題2:. From the passage, we can see that MP4 is ______ MP3.
A．much bigger thanB．just as advanced as
C．not so particular asD．more functional than
小題3:.Which function of MP4 is NOT directly mentioned in this passage?
A.Storing digital audio and video streams.
B.Recording some movies in cinema.
C.Playing TV shows, games and movies.
D.Transferring particular music from a DVD.
小題4:.From the last sentence, it’s clear that the writer tries to tell us it is ______.
A．reasonable to buy other digital products
B．impossible to buy something else
C．a(chǎn) very wise choice to buy an MP4
D．a(chǎn)n exciting experience to buy an MP3

The bus is a usable form of transportation all over the world because we can easily take it to go everywhere. Also, we do not need to worry about danger on a long-distance trip. Now, we have comfortable buses in London. I would like to describe how comfortable they are. First, the number of seats on a bus has been reduced from 44 to 19. The reason why the number of seats is now 19 is that the seats have been changed to big and comfortable sofas.
Originally, they changed the normal seats to airplane seats and took out ten seats from the buses. However, every customer wanted to have a more comfortable seat on the bus when they went on long-distance trips, so they changed them to sofas. Also, the owners of the bus companies wanted to make more money, so they tried to meet the passengers’ needs. They changed the airplane seats to sofas, so the number of seats is now 19.
As the new buses appear, the prices go up, too. The owners have many ideas, which you have probably never thought about before. Now they have bus attendants who serve water, snacks, newspapers, and towels.
Also, you can change the direction and the height of the sofa to make yourself more comfortable, and there is a service bell on each sofa. Moreover, some companies show movies on the buses. In addition, when you go on a long-distance trip, they have luxurious(豪華的) buses that have an LCD screen on each seat. That is not the only surprising thing on the bus. They also have different TV channels, movie channels, and seventy TV games for killing time while you are on the bus.
小題1:How many airplane seats did they put in a bus originally?
A．10 seats.B．19 seats.C．34 seats.D．44 seats.
小題2: The direction and height of the sofas can be changed so that ______.
A. they can take up less space            B. they can hold more people
C. passengers can feel more comfortable   D. passengers can watch a movie
小題3:If you are thirsty and want to have a drink while sitting in the bus, you’d better _____.
A．go to the front of the bus to get itB．get off the bus to buy some by yourself
C．change the direction of the seatD．ring the bell on your sofa
小題4:Though there are fewer seats on the buses, _____.

  Everyone knows that you can study the English language for years and still not understand a native speaker of English.
Well, here’s a secret for you: a lot of British people can’t understand each other either! Apart from the different regional accents across the country, language can also differ (不同) among age groups. The words and pronunciations used by young Britons can be very different to those used by adults. This is called “yoof” culture.
The word “yoof” is a slang (俚語) spelling of “youth”. Some people consider “yoof” to be a negative (消極的) term, since its pronunciation is easier than “youth”. Other people see the term as positive, because it describes how young people are creating their own language, concepts (觀念) and identity.
When parents find it difficult to understand their children, the children can say more things without the censorship (審查) of their parents. In this way, young people are starting to find freedom, independence and self-expression.
They are creating a “yoof culture”. It is impossible to come up with a complete list of words used by yoof. By the time the list was completed, it would be out of date. New words come and go like fashions.
By A.J. Dalton
小題1:The point of the article is _____.
A．to list words used by yoof
B．to introduce UK yoof culture

小題2: According to the article, children are creating a “yoof culture” _______.
A．to stay cool among their peers
B．to draw more attention from their parents
C．to avoid interference of their parents in their lives
D．to keep up with the fast pace of modern society
小題3: According to the article, which of the following is TRUE?
A．The variety of regional accents in the UK is an obstacle to communication.
B．Some people consider the term “yoof” positive because it is easier to pronounce than “youth”.
C．A few vocabularies used by yoof are going to be collected in dictionaries.
D．Yoof culture is getting popular all around the English speaking countries.
小題4: By saying “Sorted!”, yoof probably means ______.
A．“I’m very tired.” B．“I understand.”
C．“You got it wrong!” D．“I don’t care!”

Temperature is measured by means of a thermometer (溫度計). One general form of thermometer depends upon the fact that most solids and liquids expand as their temperature rises. There are one or two exceptions. There is, for instance, a kind of steel called invar (from “invariable”) which does not change its dimensions as temperature changes; it is valuable for making pendulums (鐘擺), since, if the length of a pendulum changes, its time of vibration changes. It is also used for making very accurate measuring scales. In both cases, then, changes of atmospheric temperature have no effect if invar is used.
Another exception is that very odd liquid, water, which has many strange properties (特性). As water gets colder it contracts (收縮), which is ordinary behavior, until it reaches the temperature of 30℃. above freezing point. After that, as it gets colder, it expands. This is fortunate---for considering the freezing of a pond. As the water on top gets colder, it shrinks; and so, volume for volume, it becomes heavier and sinks. This goes on until all the pond is at 30℃, but after that, as the water becomes colder it expands. Therefore the colder water stays on top and freezes, covering the pond with ice. If the water went on contracting down to the freezing point, the pond would become a solid block of ice in the end. This would not worry people who live in hot climates, but it would be very serious for those who live in cold climates, especially for those who want to break the ice and catch fish which live in the cold water beneath.
小題1: Invar is valuable for making pendulums because _______.
A．it can hardly change its shape or size as temperature changes.
B．it will change its dimensions without the change of temperature.
C．its time of vibration doesn’t change if its length changes.
D．its time of vibration does not change if its length changes.
小題2: As water gets colder after reaching the temperature of 30℃. it will _______.
A．contractB．shrinkC．expandD．freeze
小題3: Which of the following statements is true, according to this passage?
A．Only invar can be used to make a thermometer.
B．Only water can be used to make a thermometer.
C．Both invar and water can be used to make a thermometer.
D．Neither invar nor water can be used to make a thermometer.
小題4:The best title of this passage is most likely to be  _____.
A．Temperature MeasurementB．Two Exceptions
C．Uses of Invar D．Properties of Water

With eco-tourism on the rise, eco-hotels are fast becoming the darling of the travel industry. These days, however, staying at an eco-hotel doesn’t necessarily mean vacationing in a tree house in the Costa Rican jungle, although that is certainly a choice.
The majority of eco-hotels fall into one of several categories: hotels and resorts that conserve ecologically important habitats; “green” hotels that reduce, recycle, minimize waste, and protect water; sustainable hotels that harvest food from gardens on the hotel property or get part or all of their power from renewable energy; hotels that encourage community involvement such as guests taking part in trail clearing; and hotels that offer some form of environmental education to their guests.
As such, eco-hotels are a various group. Stylish urban hotels like the Willard Inter-Continental Washington focus on energy conservation whereas the Rosario Resort & Spa on Orcas Island in Washington State offers a wildly popular “green” vacation package where guests can “take a hike, clear a trail”.
No matter what you call them, eco-hotel, eco-lodge, eco-resort, or green hotel, they’re all part of the “greening” of the tourism industry.
Part of what drives this greening of the hotel industry is no doubt competition. Going green is yet another way to distinguish a hotel from the mass of other excellent hotels that consumers have to choose from. But for many hotels, it’s also part of their philosophy. With the concept of “going green” firmly rooted in consumers’ minds, eco-hotels have taken it to the next level, and whether or not money is the driving factor behind the greening of the hotel industry doesn’t matter so much as it’s good for the planet.
小題1:The underlined part in the first paragraph means _______.
A．lovers like staying at an eco-hotel when traveling
B．eco-hotels are very popular in the travel industry
C．eco-hotels are where young people love to live
D．romantic love stories often happen in eco-hotels
小題2: According to the passage, which of the following can match the idea of eco-hotel?
A．It uses renewable energy.
B．It is comfortable and fashionable.
C．It has walls of glass.
D．It is home to endangered species.
小題3: From the passage, we know the Rosario Resort & Spa is a kind of hotel that _______.
A．protects important habitats
B．harvests food from its own garden
C．has courses on the environment for its guests
D．encourages its guests to participate in its greening activities
小題4: From the last paragraph, we can learn that _______.
A．money is the driving force behind eco-hotels
B．eco-hotels have no advantages in competing for guests
C．eco-hotels teach their guests the philosophy of eco-hotels
D．the hotel industry cares more about money than the environment
小題5: People who choose to stay at eco-hotels _______.
A．love to take a hike
B．have environmental awareness
C．want to live comfortably
D．enjoy the green atmosphere

Hey there,
So you're about to spend four years of your life and tens of thousands of dollars of your parents' money, and all you really know about college is that all of your friends are going. Do you ever consider why you're going? 
Relax. You're making the right decision. First of all, you'll discover what interests you by taking courses in many subjects. It's hard to decide whether you want to be a painter if you've never painted any pictures, until you're in a drawing-room on campus. College is also a lot of fun — after you graduate, you'll be working every weekday for 50 or so years. And remember that college graduate earn about twice the income of those who never attended college. 
Finding the right college can be difficult. Fortunately, Johnson Review is here to help you every step of the way. 
*Researching Schools. The most important decision you'll make is to choose the school that really suits your best — not the one that is the most competitive or has the best-equipped rooms. 
*Applying to School. On JohnsonReview.com, you’ll find hundreds of actual college applications and links to many more. 
*Raising Your Scores. American College Test is one of the most difficult parts of the admission(錄取) course. It's not the most important, though, and not everyone needs to prepare for the test. But, if you can do better, find the right course for better scores. 
*Paying for School. Most families need financial aid for the high cost of college. The problem is that financial aid seems difficult to get and many families get caught up in the price of college instead of learning the ways to get financial aid. If you really do your research, you'll learn that you can afford to attend any college, no matter the cost.
