阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
I arrived late one night on a business trip, so I decided to have dinner in the hotel I stayed in. As I was finishing my meal, an elderly couple came in. They were holding hands and had lovely smiles on their faces. They sat three tables from me. I was amazed at the love they showed for each other. It stuck me because it was shortly after ending a 20-year marriage and I still had pain in my heart.
My waiter was also their waiter. As I paid my bill, I asked what their bill was. He told me, and I gave him $40 to pay their bill. He asked if I knew them and I told him “No, I just wanted to repay them for the love that they were showing to each other,” and then I left.
The next day I entered the restaurant again. After I had been seated, the waiter who served me the night before told me that the strangest thing happened after I left the restaurant. When the elderly couple went to pay for their meal, they were told that it had been paid. The waiter just told them what I said. They were amazed. They looked around, asked for the bill of two young couples who were seated together, paid their bill and left.
I smiled and ordered my meal. About 45 minutes later, I finished my meal and was about to head out, but my waiter was nowhere to be found. I explained to the hostess that I needed to pay for my meal and hurry to the airport. She smiled and explained that I would not have to pay, because she felt she should pay for my bill because of the joy brought to the faces of the elderly couple and the amazement of the young couples.
When I told her that they didn’t have to do that, she said with a smile “Love creates Love.”

D. wanted to invite the young people to the meal

B
It’s long been known that dogs and cats, with their well developed sense of smell, can be trained to identify the chemicals released by human illnesses. In some cases, researchers have even trained household pets to detect or predict epilepsy(癫痫病). But what if we could put the sense into a microchip(芯片), allowing us to create a breathalyzer(呼吸分析器) for diseases?
For Dr. Andrew Koehl, the inventor of the microchip technology at the heart of this digital nose, the technology that will allow us to do just that is already here. “We can detect down to parts per billion levels,” Koehl says. “To give you a similarity that’s equal to one drop in an Olympic size swimming pool.” The sensor(感应器) identifies each chemical’s make-up in the air. If the sensor is set to a certain level, it will set off an alarm.
Work continues to make it smaller and makes it able to enter the healthcare market. Within several years, the company hopes to develop it as a diagnostic(诊断) tool. “What’s amazing is that there really are chemicals on your breath that indicate illness. That’s been shown through a number of studies and we can detect those,” he said. “There have already been a number of research papers published suggesting we can detect many disease.”
At the beginning, the technology had been developed for defense purposes. He said the terror caused by the events of September 11 had got him thinking about the application of this type of sensor in safety check. “Originally it was aimed at detecting things like explosives, poisonous chemicals and other terrors that might occur,” said Dr Koehl.
Eventually the sensor could become a part of many everyday instruments, warning users of which foods are going bad in the fridge or even the best moment to take the roast out of the microwave oven.
You could even, one day, have a digital nose that you could carry in your pocket. “More recently we’ve been looking at user spaces so we’re talking to a number of producers of mobile phones and mobile phone parts,” he said. “We want to develop a module small enough to put into mobile devices(装置) like phones.”
24. It can be inferred from the passage that_______.
A. This type of sensor was designed to prevent disease at first
B. The digital nose can be put into mobile phones at present
C. Users might take the mobile devices with them in near future
D. The new invention has already entered the healthcare market
25. The underlined word “ detect”（Paragraph1）is closest in meaning to_______.
A. protect B. discover C. settle D. remove
26. What does the passage mainly want to tell readers?
A. Dogs and cats have a strong sense of smell.
B. A new sensor is used to identify chemicals.
C. Modern technology is developing very fast.
D. Digital noses on a microchip can smell diseases.
C
One day, Mr. Arnold was teaching a lesson, and things were going as normally as ever. He was explaining the story of human being to his pupils. He told them that, in the beginning, men were nomads (游牧); they never stayed in the same place for very long. Instead, they would travel about, here and there, in search of food, wherever it was to be found. And when the food ran out, they would move off somewhere else.
He taught them about the invention of farming and keeping animals. This was an important discovery, because by learning to cultivate (耕作) the land, and care for animals, mankind would always have food steadily. It also meant that people could remain living in one place, and this made it easier to set about tasks that would take a long while to finish, like building towns, cities, and all that were in them. All the children were listening attracted by this story, until Lucy jumped up:
“And if that was so important and improved everything so much, why are we nomads all over again, Mr. Arnold?”
Mr. Arnold didn’t know what to say. Lucy was a very clever girl. He knew that she lived with her parents in a house, so she must know that her family were not nomads; so what did she mean?
“We have all become nomads again,” continued Lucy, “The other day, outside the city, they were cutting the forest down. A while ago a fisherman told me how they fish. It’s the same with everyone: when there’s no more forest left the foresters go elsewhere, and when the fish run out the fishermen move on. That’s what the nomads did, isn’t it?
The teacher nodded, thoughtfully. Really, Lucy was right. Mankind had turned into nomads. Instead of looking after the land in a way that we could be sure it would keep supplying our needs, we kept developing it until the land was bare. And then off we would go to the next place! The class spent the rest of the afternoon talking about what they could do to show how to be more civilized (文明的).
The next day everyone attended class wearing a green T-shirt, with a message that said “I am not a nomad!”
And, from then on, they set about showing that indeed they were not. Every time they knew they needed something, they made sure that they would get it using care and control. If they needed wood or paper, they would make sure that they got the recycled kind. They ordered their fish from fish farms, making sure that the fish they received were not too young and too small. They only used animals that were well cared for, and brought up on farms.
And so, from their little town, those children managed to give up being nomads again, just as prehistoric men had done, so many thousands of years ago.
27. Why would early humans travel about in the beginning?
A. To experience different lifestyles. B. To go sightseeing in different places.
C. To find what they could to feed themselves. D. To do more exercise to build themselves up.
28. From Paragraph 2, we can know that _______________.
A. people got tired of living in the same place
B. people gradually got used to living in cities
C. people spent a long time in learning to keep animals
D. people tended to settle down after learning farming and keeping animals
29. The teacher thought Lucy’s argument was ______
A. reasonable B. unbelievable
C. puzzling D. shocking
30. Which of the following agrees with the message “I am not a nomad” (Paragraph 7)?
A. People eat young fish for its delicious taste.
B. People use recycled materials as much as possible.
C. Fishermen move elsewhere when there is no fish left.
D. Foresters leave the place where there is no wood left.
31. The writer tries to make us believe that ______.
A. mankind has been progressing mainly through traveling about
B. it’s unwise for mankind to use the land in an uncontrolled way
C. it’s quite good for students to learn more about the history of mankind
D. teachers should encourage students to voice their own opinions bravely

Earlier this month, blogger Lisa Henderson announced that she and her husband John had decided not to have Christmas. The family, who lives in Utah, will still put up decorations, but presents from Santa are a no-go this year.
“John and I feel like we are fighting a very hard uphill battle with our kids when it comes to their rights,” Henderson wrote on her blog. “It is one of the biggest struggles as a parent these days in middle class America. Our kids have been acting so ungrateful lately. ... John said, “We shouldn’t just celebrate Christmas. And, so that’s what we did.”
Instead, the Hendersons are putting the money they would have spent on gifts toward service projects in order to teach their three sons the “pleasure of giving.” The children will still receive gifts from grandparents and other family members, but this year, she said, their letters to Santa will be asking him to find someone who needs presents more than they do.
In an interview with ABC News, 11-year-old Caleb Henderson admitted that he and his brothers had been behaving badly. “We would hit each other. We were fighting and crying,” he admitted, and Lisa said that when she broke the news to her sons, they cried pretty hard.
But so far, Henderson told Fox News last week, the family is having a sudden turning this into a different kind of gift. They have already held a clothing drive and sent boxes of clothes and candy to a village in the Philippines that was hit hard last year by Typhoon Haiyan.
“The children were excited and kept wanting to give more and more,” she reported on her blog.
Many readers responded positively to Henderson’s post. Some sharing their own stories of limiting Christmas in order to teach their children to be charitable(仁慈的) or grateful. “As parents you’re giving your kids something so much more special than a bunch of gifts on Christmas,” one wrote.
But Henderson received negative follow-ups as well on her blog. Responding to critics, she updated her blog with a statement that reads, in part:
I just wanted to explain a couple of things. First, my kids ar
