13、 Searching for parking spaces has long been a headache for many office workers in many big cities of China, especially for those working in central business districts. Parking near their companies for five days a week could cost them a lot of money. At the same time, even with prices for parking lots in residential areas(居民区) rising, most of their spaces remain idle during workdays. Now a new form of sharing economy has appeared in China—the shared parking space. It has become a huge market in some big cities.
In Qingdao, a coastal(海岸的) city in Shangdong, up to 10,000 personal parking spaces have been turned into shared ones with the help of “Airparking”, an online shared parking platform developed by a network company from Guangzhou.
Through a special app, users can either share or order a parking place. Owners who have idle parking spaces can share some information, including the parking position, license number and time limit(限制) on the platform. With the information, users can easily find the nearest place to park. The average (平均的) parking cost for shared parking is 4 yuan each hour, almost the same as the service cost in traditional parking spaces.
Qingdao is one of the Chinese cities that encourage shared parking. Some other big cites, including Beijing, Shanghai and Hefei, have also begun to try this idea. The Shanghai government, for example, has set up more than 6,500 shared parking spaces to encourage the public to use. Shared parking will be more and more helpful to the drivers.
1．In the first paragraph, the writer points out that________.
A．we should find a good way to use parking spaces in big cities
B．prices of parking spaces are rising quickly in China
C．it’s difficult to find parking space in central business districts
D．many people want to find parking spaces in residential areas during workdays
2．The underlined word idle probably means ________ in Chinese in this passage.
A．无所事事的 B．停顿的 C．闲置的 D．懒惰的
3．If you want to use shared parking in Qingdao, you should________.
A．love the city B．use a special app
C．have an idle parking space D．share your personal information
4．How much should you pay if you use a shared parking space for 5 hours in Qingdao?
A．15 yuan. B．20yuan. C．25yuan. D．30yuan.
5．The purpose of the passage is to tell us that ________.
A．it’s hard to find parking spaces in residential areas during workdays
B．Qingdao has fewer shared parking spaces than Shanghai
C．shared parking will probably become more and more popular
D．shared parking is more expensive than traditional parking service

14、Whatever the situation, you need to understand gestures(手势). Many gestures that we use are universal(通用的). Some of them can create wrong meanings to others. Using the wrong gesture could get you into trouble when you communicate with foreigners. Be careful with these gestures：
The ‘thumb up’ sign—In Italy, Germany and Greece, this sign simply means the number one. In Russia the meaning of this expression is ‘good’ or ‘well done’. In Egypt and Iraq, it means perfect or very good. It is widely used between people. But in Iran it is traditionally an obscene(不正经的) gesture.
The ‘OK’ sign—Often used to mean agreement, but it is considered rude in Brazil, southern Italy, Germany and Greece. In Japan, this gesture is a sign of money. In southern France it is used to show that something is worthless.
The victory sign—With the index finger and middle finger rose to form a V. It means victory or peace. Be careful about using it in Britain, however, if the palm is facing toward you, the gesture is considered obscene.
Snapping your fingers(打响指)—Some might use this gesture to get someone’s attention. In France and Belgium it sends a bad message. You would never snap your fingers to get a waiter’s attention.
Hands in the pockets—This is commonly seen in daily life. In Finland, Sweden, France, Belgium, Indonesia and Japan, putting your hands in your pockets would be considered impolite in a business meeting.
The meaning of gestures is not universal. Use these tips to prevent a cultural misunderstand. When in doubt, the best advice would be to ‘keep your hands to yourself.’

16、“Earworms”, some people call them. Songs that get stuck in your head go round and round, sometimes for days, sometimes for months. For no clear reason you cannot help yourself from humming or singing a tune by Lady Gaga.
To a psychologist, the most interesting thing about earworms is that they show a part of our mind that is clearly outside of our control. Earworms arrive without permission and refuse to leave when we tell them to. They are parasites（寄生虫）, living in a part of our minds.
If you have got a earworm you can suffer an attack of it simply by someone mentioning the tune, without having to hear it. This proves that earworms are a part of long-term memory.
Human have an “inner ear”, for remembering phone numbers, for instance.
When it gets infected with earworms, rather than review our plans for the day, or lists of things to remember, the inner ear gets stuck on a few short bars of music or a couple of phrases from a song. A part of us that we normally do not have to think about, that should just do what we ask, has been turned against us, upsetting us with a request that we never asked for. The mind is an inner world which we do not have complete knowledge of, or have control over.
Fortunately psychology can provide some advice on how to deal with an uncontrollable mind. Consider the famous “don’t think of a white bear” problem, which tell you to try not to think about white bears or to do something else, to avoid both thinking of the white bear and not thinking of the white bear. For earworms, the solution may be the same. Our inner ear has become infected with an earworm. This is a part not under our control, so just sending in instructions to “shut up” is unlikely to be of much help (and has been shown to make it worse). Much better is to employ the inner ear in another task. If your mind is poisoned by Brittany Spears’ Toxic, for instance, then try singing Kylie Minogue’s Can’t Get You Out Of My Head. Let me know if it works!

B．Earworms are used for keeping long-term memory.
C．Humans do not have complete control over their mind.
D．You won’t suffer from earworms unless you hear the song.

A．The instruction to shut up your mind.
B．“Don’t think of the white bear” problem.
C．Kylie Minogue’s Can’t Get You out Of My head.
D．The relation between earworms and popular songs.
4．What is the passage mainly about?
