I once had a house guest from Cuba. During his visit, I happened to throw an old broken blender (攪拌機(jī)) in the trash. The next day it was sitting on my counter – in working order. In his world, people simply cannot afford to replace an item which doesn't work properly. They take the time and figure out how to fix it. In Cuba, they are still driving cars from the 1960’s, mainly because they do not have a choice. 
In contrast, the U.S. is a “throw-away society.” Statistics show that each American produces six pounds of trash per day. I believe a combination of factors has contributed to this phenomenon.
“Planned obsolescence(廢棄)” is not a secret. It is a manufacturing (制造業(yè)) philosophy developed in the 1920’s and 1930’s, when mass production became popular. The goal is to make a product or part that will fail, or become less desirable over time or after a certain amount of use. This pressures the consumer to buy again. 
Planned obsolescence does keep costs down. Instead of making an expensive product that will last a long time, businesses produce more affordable, disposable(一次性的) items. Some electronic items have become so inexpensive that it is cheaper to replace them than to repair them.
Busy people often value their time and convenience more than money. If a car starts to have mechanical problems, replacing it with a newer, more reliable model may be more appealing than tolerating it being in the garage for a week.
In addition, advertising trains consumers to want what is new and improved. It convinces them that the more they have, the happier they will be. 
Unlike people in many developing countries, we live in a world of abundance. A study by Dr. Timothy Jones of the University of Arizona also found that in the U.S., 40-50 percent of all food ready for harvest is wasted. Abundance and waste soon became closely associated in the American way of life.
小題1:In Cuba, people usually fix a broken item instead of buying a new one because __________.
A.wasting is prohibited thereB.they are poor
C.they are interested in fixing thingsD.they live a low-carbon life
小題2:According to the article, planned obsolescence ___________.
A.began before mass production became popular
B.is intended to encourage consumers to buy more things

D.requires factories to produce high-quality products
小題3:Which of the following is NOT true about the “throw-away society” in the U.S.?
A.People prefer to buy a new blender rather than repair the broken one.
B.A large quantity of food has been wasted.
C.People believe that the more they have, the happier they will be.
D.People all hold the belief that money comes first.
小題4:What may be the writer’s attitude towards a throw-away society?
A.Supportive.B.Critical.C.Tolerant.D.Optimistic.

小題1:B
小題2:B
小題3:D
小題4:B

試題分析:一次作者在扔掉用壞的攪拌機(jī)時(shí),碰巧家里有一位來(lái)自古巴的房客,房客第二天把作者扔掉的攪拌機(jī)給修理好,拿了回來(lái)。由此作者比較古巴和美國(guó)兩個(gè)社會(huì)的異同,認(rèn)識(shí)到了在貧窮的國(guó)家,人們過(guò)的非常節(jié)儉,而在美國(guó)這個(gè)物質(zhì)極大充足的社會(huì),浪費(fèi)現(xiàn)象非常嚴(yán)重。
小題1:B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章首段 In his world, people simply cannot afford to replace an item which doesn't work properly.可知在古巴人們買不起東西,才會(huì)對(duì)用壞的東西進(jìn)行修理,所以選B。
小題2:B推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第三段The goal is to make a product or part that will fail, or become less desirable over time or after a certain amount of use. This pressures the consumer to buy again.可以判斷選B。
小題3:D 推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第五段Busy people often value their time and convenience more than money.可知忙碌的人們把時(shí)間和便捷看的比金錢更重要,所以D選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容錯(cuò)誤。
小題4:B 推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章末段40-50 percent of all food ready for harvest is wasted. Abundance and waste soon became closely associated in the American way of life.可知作者認(rèn)為物質(zhì)的充足造成了浪費(fèi)現(xiàn)象,所以對(duì)于美國(guó)這個(gè)“a throw-away society”是持批判態(tài)度的。

From the health point of view we are living in a marvelous age. We are immunized from birth against many of the most dangerous diseases. A large number of once fatal illnesses can now be cured by modern drugs and surgery. It is almost certain that one day remedies will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases. The expectation of life has increased enormously. But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before, every day we witness the incredible slaughter of men, women and children on the roads. Man versus the motor-car ! It is a never-ending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people the world over are killed or horribly killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.
It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel, his car becomes the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a man’s very worst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel. They swear, they are ill-mannered and aggressive, willful as two-years-olds and utterly selfish. All their hidden frustrations, disappointments and jealousies seem to be brought to the surface by the act of driving.
The surprising thing is that society smiles so benignly on the motorist and seems to condone his behaviour. Everything is done for his convenience. Cities are allowed to become almost uninhabitable because of heavy tragic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks; the countryside is desecrated by road networks; and the mass annual slaughter becomes nothing more than a statistic, to be conveniently forgotten.
It is high time a world code were created to reduce this senseless waste of human life. With regard to driving, the laws of some countries are notoriously lax and even the strictest are not strict enough. A code which was universally accepted could only have a dramatically beneficial effect on the accident rate. Here are a few examples of some the things that might be done. The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is; all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so; the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21; all vehicles should be put through stringent annual tests for safety. Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can impair a person’s driving ability. Present drinking and driving laws (where they exist) should be mad much stricter. Maximum and minimum speed limits should be imposed on all roads. Governments should lay down safety specifications for manufacturers, as has been done in the USA. All advertising stressing power and performance should be banned. These measures may sound inordinately harsh. But surely nothing should be considered as to severe if tit results in reducing the annual toll of human life. After all, the world is for human beings, not motor-cars.

It’s really true what people say about English politeness: it’s everywhere. When squeezing  past someone in a narrow passage, people say “sorry”. When getting off a bus, English passengers say “thank you” rather than the driver. In Germany, people would never dream of doing these things. After all, squeezing past others is sometimes unavoidable, and the bus driver is only doing his job. I used to think the same way, without questioning it, until I started traveling to the British Isles, and here are some more polite ways of interacting  with people in UK.
People thank each other everywhere in England, all the time. When people buy something in a shop, customer and shop assistant in most cases thank each other twice or more. In Germany, it would be exceptional to hear more than one thank you in such a conversation. British students thank their lecturers when leaving the room. English employers thank their employees for doing their jobs, as opposite to Germans, who would normally think that paying their workers money is already enough.
Another thing I observed during my stay was that English people rarely criticize others. Even when I was working and mistakes were pointed out to me, my employers emphasized several times but none of their explanations were intended as criticism. It has been my impression that by avoiding criticism, English people are making an effort to make others feel comfortable. This also is showed in other ways. British men still open doors for women, and British men are more likely to treat women to a meal than German men. However, I do need to point out here that this applies to English men a bit more than it would to Scottish men! Yes, the latter are a bit tightfisted.
小題1:What is the author’s attitude towards English politeness?
A.He thinks it is unnecessary.B.He thinks little of it.
C.He appreciates it very much.D.He thinks it goes too far.
小題2:What can be inferred from the passage?
A.German men never treat a woman to dinner.
B.The author think it’s unnecessary to say “thank you” to the bus driver.
C.In Germany, employers often say “thank you” to employees for their job.
D.Germans think it is unnecessary to thank workers because payment is enough.
小題3:We can learn from the last paragraph that Scottish men ______.
A.like to fight with each other
B.treat women in a polite way
C.a(chǎn)re as generous as English men
D.a(chǎn)re unwilling to spend money for women
小題4:The author develops the text through the method of ______.
A.making comparisonsB.telling storiesC.giving reasonsD.giving examples

I have nothing to say about whether or not “A Day Without Immigrants(移民)” had a positive or negative effect on the question of how the federal government should deal with the huge population of undocumented illegal immigrants in this country. I'll leave that question to others.
Regardless of how you feel about the event, one conclusion is obvious. Using the theme of “A Day Without” as a way to focus national attention on a particular subject is a great idea, and could serve as a method for increasing public consciousness about other issues that affect daily life in America. Here are my top three examples:
“A Day Without Speeding.” How hard could this be? If all drivers would strictly obey every posted speed limit on highways, downtown, on neighborhood streets, and in parking lots for one 24-hour cycle, the benefits would be huge.
“A Day Without Losing Your Temper.” A higher degree of difficulty here, and I know that from personal experience. When something goes wrong at home or on the job, there may be brief satisfaction in yelling or kicking the furniture, but bursting into anger usually has nothing to do with the approach to the heart of the matter.
“A Day Without Having All The Answers.” I would like to get a break from hearing anyone speak the phrase, “Here’s what you’re doing wrong.” Right now the US is packed with citizens who believe they can point out the cause of every single problem in existence and then solve it in a moment. I believe they need to be quiet sometimes and use their ears instead of their voices.
I wonder how would average Americans react to such a national pause? Would it be a day of reaction against anger, or joyful celebrations?
小題1:The first paragraph suggests ________.
A.the writer is against “A Day Without Immigrants”
B.immigrants are not equally treated by the US government
C.the immigrants issue is so complex that the author has to refer to others
D.some move to America without the permission of the US government
小題2:The author uses his “top three examples” to________.
A.criticize the undocumented illegal immigrants in America
B.show public consciousness of some subjects could be raised
C.encourage common people to create more similar activities
D.indicate some bothering issues affecting people’s daily life
小題3:According to the author, losing one’s temper is ________.
A.unpleasant B.pointlessC.relaxingD.personal
小題4:The writer suggests “a day without having all the answers”, because ________.
A.he thinks the Americans are too proud
B.he wants to have a chance to speak his mind
C.he expects others to keep quiet and calm
D.he hopes to get a break from the problems

People are being lured(引誘) onto Facebook with the promise of a fun, free service, and don’t realize that they’re paying for it by giving up loads of personal information. Facebook then attempts to make money by selling their data(資料) to advertisers that want to send targeted (目標(biāo)的)messages.
Most Facebook users don’t realize this is happening. Even if they know what the company is up to, they still have no idea what they’re paying for Facebook, because people don’t really know what their personal details are worth.
The biggest problem, however, is that the company keeps changing the rules. Early on, you could keep everything private. That was the great thing about Facebook—you could create your own little private network. Last year, the company changed its privacy rules so that many things—your city, your photo, your friends’ names—were set, by default(默認(rèn)), to be shared with everyone on the Internet.
According to Facebook’s vice president Elliot Schrage, the company is simply making changes to improve its service, and if people don’t share information, they have a “l(fā)ess satisfying experience.”
Some critics think this is more about Facebook looking to make more money. Its original business model, which involved selling ads and putting them at the side of the page, totally failed. Who wants to look at ads when they’re online connecting with their friends?
The privacy issue has already landed Facebook in hot water in Washington. In April, Senator Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy. He also urged the Commission to set guidelines for social-networking sites. “I think the senators rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how people could choose to use them or not to use them,” Schrage admits.
I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade(侵犯)our privacy, it’s only the beginning,which is why I’m considering deactivating(撤銷) my account(賬號(hào)). Facebook is a handy site, but I’m upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I don’t trust. That is too high a price to pay.
小題1:What do we learn about Facebook from the first paragraph?
A.It is a website that sends messages to targeted users.
B.It makes money by putting on advertisements.
C.It earns money by selling its user’s personal data
D.It provides a lot of information to its users
小題2:What does the author say about most Facebook users?
A.They don’t know their personal data enriches Facebook
B.They are unwilling to give up their personal information
C.They don’t identify themselves when using website
D.They care very little about their personal information
小題3:Why does Facebook make changes to its rules according to Elliot Schrage?
A.To help its users make more friends
B.To obey the Federal guidelines
C.To make money by attracting more users
D.To offer better service to its users
小題4:What does Senator Charles Schumer argue for?
A.Setting guidelines for advertising on websites
B.Setting rules for social-networking sites
C.Stopping sharing user’s personal information
D.Removing ads from all social-networking sites
小題5:Why does the author plan to stop using his Facebook account?
A.He is dissatisfied with its service.
B.He finds many of its users untrustworthy.
C.He doesn’t want his personal data badly used.
D.He is upset by its frequent rule changes.

A survey reveals that employees in China say they are not engaged in their jobs. Judging by the survey data, many Chinese workplaces are black holes of misery and despair.
Only 6% of Chinese employees said they are "engaged" in their jobs, according to a global Gallup survey released this month. China's numbers equal the numbers out of war-weary(厭戰(zhàn)的) Iraq.
Workers across all income levels and industries were surveyed by Gallup in China, defined by Gallup to mean they were "psychologically committed to their jobs and likely to be making positive contributions to their organizations".
Out of 94 countries polled, only six countries scored lower rates of job engagement than China, including Tunisia, Israel and Syria. Unsurprisingly, 0% of Syrians admitted to being engaged at work.
In a related survey, China ranked near the bottom in a poll measuring job satisfaction among 22 Asian countries. Only 49% of Chinese respondents said they were happy in their jobs.
Part of the problem, I suspect, is that very few in China have the luxury to pursue a career that truly interests them.
Even university graduates often feel they have no choice but to choose the positions with the government or state-run enterprises, since those jobs are thought to be stable.
That makes those who are happy at work in China a rare find indeed.
小題1:What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A.The people in Israel are not engaged in their jobs.
B.People in Syria are more engaged at work than the Chinese.
C.Most Chinese people are happy in work.
D.China ranked the top in the job engagement.
小題2:What is the meaning of the underlined word “l(fā)uxury” in Paragraph 6?
A.happinessB.dreamC.willingD.courage
小題3:According to the author, why most Chinese dislike their jobs?
A.Because they don’t take the jobs they really like
B.Because many Chinese workplaces are full of misery and despair.
C.Because they have no choice but to choose the stable jobs.
D.Because they are not psychologically committed to their jobs.
小題4:Which of the following jobs are the university graduates nowadays more likely to choose?
A.LawyersB.Civil Servants (公務(wù)員)

“I pity the empress. Poor empress.” “Do you think Zhen Huan really loves the emperor?” From campuses to offices, from shopping malls to the streets, talk about Legend of Zhen Huan is everywhere.
Unlike other long TV series, Legend of Zhen Huan, the 76-episode Qing dynasty drama series, has kept attracting new audiences along the way. It has enjoyed widespread popularity on the Chinese mainland over the past months.
The story is seemingly the same as those dramas which look into the lives of women in the imperial palace. It focuses on plots and intrigues(陰謀) within the Inner Palace during Emperor Yongzheng’s reign.
The heroine, Zhen Huan, initially a kind and innocent young lady, enters the emperor’s harem(后宮) of concubines. Discovering that the palace is a cruel and harsh place, Zhen learns how to survive on her own.
  However, Legend of Zhen Huan seems to arouse more discussion than any drama series. Why? Some experts say it’s because it’s a well-made series from inside out.
Niu Hanting, deputy editor-in-chief of Art Panorama magazine, told Xinhua News Agency that the sets, props and costumes are carefully chosen. And the screenplay and dialogue are well-written. “The series takes care of every detail a good period drama should have,” Niu said. “From that aspect, it’s no coincidence that Zhen Huan could be big.” More importantly, Niu added, the TV series strikes a chord among audiences in different ways. “For example, as a woman, Zhen is hurt by the man she once loved. And as a newcomer to the palace, she finds herself caught in the fierce infighting and she has to survive,” Niu said, “Everyone may find themselves in Zhen’s position at a certain point.”
Then it’s not hard to understand why the story of Zhen Huan is even seen as a survival guide for newcomers in the workplace. Its director, Zheng Xiaolong, once admitted that in terms of society today, the “promotion” of Zhen Huan reflects a person’s career path in some way. “Whether the principles can be applied in today’s society, or not, I want to make the story as real as possible,” Zheng told Sina.com. “There are many fairytale-like series that make audiences ignore or avoid reality, and the complexity of humanity.” “But Legend of Zhen Huan, is a series that makes you think.”
小題1:What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?
A.People have pity on the empress.
B.Zhen Huan really loves the emperor.
C.Legend of Zhen Huan is very popular.
D.Legend of Zhen Huan is shown everywhere.
小題2: What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 most probably refer to?
A.The imperial palace.
B.The life of women.
C.Emperor Yongzheng’s reign.
D.The story of Zhen Huan.
小題3:When Legend of Zhen Huan finds the palace is a cruel one, she ______.
A.learns to survive on her own
B.a(chǎn)sks others for advice
C.feels down and disappointed
D.becomes an innocent young lady
小題4:We can learn from Niu Hanting that she ______.
A.thinks Zhen has had effects on newcomers
B.makes little of Legend of Zhen Huan
C.speaks highly of Legend of Zhen Huan
D.wants newcomer to follow Zhen’s example

Endless playing of songs like All I Want For Christmas in shops during the festive season doesn’t just drive us mad—the songs also make us more careless with our money, research has warned.
While repeated performance of Jingle Bells may seem like an innocent attempt to raise customers’ spirits during the nightmare of Christmas shopping, the songs also have a more delicate impact.
“Background music, or ‘muzak’, can be used by marketers to impose cultures—such as the commercialization of Christmas—onto consumers and influence their behaviour, ”experts said.
Dr. Alan Bradshaw of Royal Holloway, University of London, said, “Festive jingles are force-fed to Christmas shoppers in a bid to change their mood, influence their sense of time and what sort of products they buy. In other words, this is an attempt to control your shopping habits in a way that you might hardly be aware of.”
“Often we are told that we have the freedom to choose where we want to shop, but during Christmas the use of music in this way is so common that our freedom to choose disappears.”
Dr. Bradshaw and Prof Morris Holbrook of Columbia University examined the phenomenon and found that retailers often “dumb down” the music played in shops to relax customers, meaning it is easier to control their behaviour.
It is thought that slowing down the rhythm of music in shops can trick customers into thinking less time has passed, and therefore spend more time examining the shelves, for example.
Some providers of background music have been known to promote their services by claiming they can boost profits by controlling the behaviour of customers.
“A common trick is to take a popular current song and record an instrumental version which can be slowed down or sped up at different time of the day to influence behaviour in different ways,” Dr Bradshaw said.
Background music is often classed as “Muzak” in honor of the Seattle-based company which began producing its soft-sounding melodies in the 1930s.
小題1:According to Dr. Bradshaw, in what ways does Christmas music influence customers?
①their mood ②their income ③their sense of time ④the sort of products they buy
A.①②③B.①③④C.②③④D.①②④
小題2:Shopkers slow down the rhythm of music in shops to__________.
A.let customers spend more time shopping
B.make customers and sales assistants relaxed
C.let customers enjoy the beautiful music
D.help customers find what they really want
小題3:What kind of music is now often adapted to influence customers in shops?
A.Classical music.B.Popular modern songs.
C.Folk songs.D.Jazz music.

For decades, families settled on the sofa to share the latest news and TV series, until additional bedroom TV, computer games and the Internet almost put an end to family rows over who held the remote control. Now, however, the traditional living room scene is making a comeback. A study by the communications watchdog Ofcom has found families are once again gathering around the main television set, but they are bringing their pads and smartphones with them.
“The 1950s living room is making a comeback as a family entertainment centre,” said Jane Rumble, head of media research at Ofcom. “We are watching on much better, bigger, and more delicate television sets, but we are coming into the living room holding our connected devices.” While the family are coming together once more, comparisons with the past end there. With a range of smaller screens on hand, not everyone sitting on the sofa shares the same viewing experience.
The coronation (加冕禮) may have drawn the undivided attention of 20 million viewers in 1953, but those watching the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations 50 years later were as likely to be commenting online about BBC’s broadcast as watching it. “Just a few years ago, we would be talking about last night’s TV at work or at school,” said a viewer, “Now, we’re having those conversations live while watching TV, using social media, text and instant messaging.”
It is a behaviour of media meshing(聯(lián)網(wǎng)), whose influence was underlined during this year’s Wimbledon men’s tennis final. As Andy Murray pushed towards his victory, 1.1 million people worldwide sent an average of over two microblogs about the match.
People use the Internet to enhance their television experience, for example, by reading a newspaper live blog about a football match while watching the action on the main screen. For a huge number of younger viewers, the portable screen offers a chance to do something unrelated, such as online shopping, listening to music or watching another television programme.
Some 70% of 16-to-24-year-olds claim to be absorbed in what Ofcom calls “media stacking” at least once a week. For TV viewers, the Internet scanning is the most popular activity, but they are also calling friends on the phone or sending emails and texts. Surprisingly, 12% claim to have listened to the radio with the television on, and 6% say they have watched another video in the meanwhile.
小題1:According to the study by Ofcom, family members nowadays _______.
A.care more about who holds the remote control
B.share the same programmes in the living room
C.watch better and more delicate television programmes
D.enjoy TV together with various smaller screens on hand
小題2: This year’s Wimbledon men’s tennis final is mentioned to indicate _______.
A.so many people worldwide are watching TV
B.people like watching live matches on TV
C.the great influence of media meshing
D.the average amount of microblogs
小題3:Which shows the phenomenon of “media stacking” in the last paragraph?
A.People are watching TV while shopping online.
B.People are watching a broadcast of a coronation.
C.The Internet makes people spend less time on TV.
D.The Internet enriches people’s television experience.
小題4:The passage is written to _______.
A.describe the changes connected devices bring to TV watching
B.report the comeback of the traditional living room scene
C.show the influence of connected devices on people
D.present the different roles TV plays in people’s life
