A supermarket checkout operator was praised for striking a blow for modern manners and a return to the age of politeness after refusing to serve a shopper who was talking on her mobile phone.

The supermarket manager was forced to apologize to the customer who complained she was told her goods would not be scanned unless she hung up her phone. Jo Clark, 46, said, “I don't know what she was playing at. I couldn’t believe how rude she was. When did she have the right to give me a lecture on checkout manners? I won’t be shopping there again!”

But users of social media sites and Internet forums(論壇) were very angry that store gave in and the public appeared to be supporting the angry checkout worker. “Perhaps this is a turning point for mobile phone users everywhere. When chatting, keep your eyes on people around you. That includes people trying to serve you, other road users and especially people behind you in the stairs,” said a typical post.

“It’s time checkout staff fought back against these people constantly chatting on their phones. They can drive anyone crazy. It’s rude and annoying. I often want to grab someone’s phone and throw it as far as I can, even though I am not a checkout girl, just a passer-by,” said another.

Siobhan Freegard, founder of parenting site www. Netmums.com said, “While this checkout operator doesn’t have the authority to order customers to switch off their phones, you can see clearly how frustrated and angry she felt. No matter how busy you are, life is nicer when you and those around you have good manners.”

1.According to Jo Clark, the checkout operator_____________.

A.lacked the knowledge of checkout manners

B.played with a mobile phone while at work

C.had no right to forbid her from using her mobile phone

2.The third and fourth paragraphs imply that the public_________.

A.a(chǎn)re used to chatting on their mobile phones

B.a(chǎn)re driven crazy by constant mobile calls

C.ignore the existence of mobile phone users

D.seem to support the checkout operator

3.The attitude of Siobhan Freegard towards the checkout operator was________.

A.disapproving B.supportive

C.neutral(中立的) D.indifferent

4.The passage is mainly about _________.

A.whether we should talk on our phones while being served

B.why we can talk on mobile phones while shopping

C.what good manners checkout operators should have

D.how we can develop good manners for mobile phone users

Charlie Vansant, a college student of Athens, Ohio, who reported that his car was stolen, got a surprise when he learned a woman had mistaken it for her daughter’s car and taken it— using her key.

Kate Anderson became an accidental car thief when picking up her daughter’s car near an Ohio University building last week. Anderson spotted the Toyota Camry(豐田凱美瑞)and used her daughter’s key to unlock the car, start the engine and drive home — without realizing that the car wasn't her daughter’s.

When Charlie Vansant left class a short time later, he found only an empty parking spot. He first assumed the car had been towed, but when the police couldn’t find a record of it, they took a theft report.

The morning after Anderson took the car, her daughter discovered the Camry in the driveway wasn’t hers. Anderson said she was able to find Vansant’s name on paperwork in the glove compartment and look up his phone number on the website for the university.

When Anderson told Charlie the car was in her driveway, “It sounded really suspicious(可疑的)at first, as she wanted to hold the thing for ransom (贖金) , ” said Vansant. He eventually went to the house with a police officer, where he was reunited with his car. According to the police report, the case was closed “because of mistaken car identity”, and Anderson wasn’t charged.

Vansant seemed to blame the car company more than the “thief”. “Her key fit not only my lock, but my ignition(點火裝置)as well — so high-five for Toyota, I guess.” he said.

1.What does the underlined word “towed” mean in paragraph 3?

A. sold. B. damaged. C. stolen. D. remove.

2.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Mrs. Anderson’s daughter discovered the car her mother drove was not hers.

B. Charlie had thought he had to give Anderson money to get his car back.

C. Mrs. Anderson stole Charlie’s car at the request of her daughter.

D. Mrs. Anderson used her daughter’s key to unlock Charlie’s car and drive home.

3.What does Charlie mean by “high-five for Toyota”?

A. He should thank Toyota for returning his car.

B. He is blaming Toyota for the poor quality of car keys.

C. He wants to celebrate with Toyota for getting his car back.

D. He thinks highly of Toyota for producing large quantities of cars.

4.What is likely to happen next according to the passage?

A. Mrs. Anderson was charged with stealing a car.

B. Charlie blamed Mrs. Anderson for mistakenly taking his car.

C. Charlie would ask the Toyota Company to give him an explanation.

D. The Toyota Company would give Charlie a new car as compensation(補償).

March 21 has been declared World Sleep Day, a time to recognize and celebrate the value of sleep. Many sleep experts hope it will be a wake-up call.

According to a poll (民意調(diào)查)by the National Sleep Foundation, nearly 4 in 5 Americans don’t get as much sleep as they should during the workweek. On average, adults are thought to need at least eight hours of sleep a night, although some can manage with less and some won’t do well without more. But the survey found that, on workdays, only 21% of Americans actually get a full eight hours of sleep, and another 21% get less than six.

To many of us, the thought of spending more time sleeping is, well, a big yawn. On the other hand, the thought of being smarter, thinner, healthier and more cheerful has a certain appeal. And those are just a few of the advantages that can be ours if we consistently get enough sleep, researchers say. Also on the plus side: We’re likely to have better skin, better memories, better judgment, and, oh, yes, longer lives.

“When you lose even one hour of sleep for any reason, it influences your performance the next day,” says Dr. Alon Avidan, director of the UCLA Sleep Disorders Center.

A study published last year found the same to be true even of children. When kids aged 8 to 12 slept for just one hour less for four nights, they didn’t function as well during the day.

But sleeping has an image problem. “We see napping or sleeping as lazy,” says Jennifer Vriend, a clinical psychologist in Ottawa, Canada, and the leading author of the study with children. “We put so much emphasis on diet, nutrition and exercise. Sleep is in the back seat.” In fact, she adds, no matter how much we work out, no matter how well we eat, we can’t be in top physical shape unless we also get plenty of sleep.

1.The underlined part in Paragraph 1 means _____.

A. To wake up the sleepers

B. To draw people’s attention

C. To serve as a morning call

D. To declare the special day

2.From Paragraph 3 we can infer that _______

A. Being healthier is one of the advantages for us

B. Sleeping has nothing to do with one’s expectations

C. Spending more time on sleeping is a waste of time

D. Enough sleep is the guarantee of the appealing things

3.What Jennifer Vriend said in the last paragraph implies that _______.

A. Sleeping is an image problem

B. People care little about sleeping

C. Lazy people tend to sleep long

D. Sleeping is only part of our life

4.What is the purpose of the passage?

A. To talk about people’s sleeping problems.

B. To provide an investigation result of sleeping.

C. To arouse the awareness of enough sleeping.

D. To stress the function of sleeping at night.
