1. My iPhone has destroyed my brain. I used to listen in meetings; now I browse the Internet. I don’t text people using proper sentences anymore; I use ugly contractions such as “def” or “prob”, and that’s when I’m not resorting to smiley faces and winks. When did mobile devices become so dangerously addictive? My arrival in China coincided with the early days of smartphones, and I remember constantly chiding any friends who dared check the Internet while I was talking to them ?or even if I was simply present. I’ve shared a cinema with someone who, having grown bored of the movie they had paid to see, began watching a different one on their iPhone, sans earphones. It took all the mental strength I had, not to reach over, grab it from their
hands and throw the device at the screen. I reserved the worst comment for people who checked their phones at the dinner table. Slowly but surely, though, I have become what I loathe the most: A smartphone bore, the kind of person who will bury themselves in the news or e-mails or Twitter or Sina Micro-blogging rather than talk to the people they are with. What’s the solution for people who want to kick the habit? According to psychiatrist Jeremy Spiegel, writing in Psychology Today, it’s quite simple: Go out and leave the phone at home, he suggests. “Over time, expanding your digital downtime from one hour to larger chunks of time, the heart rate slows down, you’re less on edge.” We used to have mystery in our lives without smartphones. When we left the house, people didn’t know where we were and we’d have something to tell them when we saw them. Now they can track our every move. We were also less likely to cancel a date with friends because it wasn’t as easy as sending “soz, can’t make it” on WeChat. So I’m going to try and unplug everything now and again, to save my brain. I just hope I don’t miss anything.
Now I usually play with my smartphone instead of listening in meetings. (A) T (B) F
When I arrived in China, I was not tolerant toward those who dared check the Internet when I was talking to them.(A) T (B) F
I could enjoy the film when other people watched a different one on their iPhone without earphones in the cinema.(A) T (B) F
Now it is easier than before to cancel a date with friends because it is easy to say: “sorry, I cannot make it.” (A) T (B) F
According to the psychiatrist, if you go out and leave the phone at home, you will be very nervous.(A) T (B) F

2. Informed conversations about self-driving cars no longer are about feasibility. New key talking points are “When?” and “Which automakers first?” and “Who will be responsible when an accident happens?” Nissan has said it will sell a driverless car by 2020. IHS forecast several models available by 2025. Both of these are guesses?but they indicate how fast the technology is progressing. What seemed unimaginable a decade ago becomes more practical, comprehensible, and real by the day. Google's (GOOG) self-driving Toyota Prius (TM) has logged hundreds of thousands of miles without incident on California roads. Most automakers are testing self-driving cars on tracks and ?lately, as I experienced earlier this week in Las Vegas ? in traffic. The Audi A7
equipped with “traffic jam assist” was programmed to drive itself slowly in heavy traffic at no more than 40 miles per hour. (Dr. Bjorn Giesler, head of Audi's project team, was behind the wheel.) The car was loaded with cameras, sensors, and a special device that monitors a driver's eyes to ensure he or she doesn't fall asleep at the wheel. In that event, the car will safely slow down, stop, and call for help. Think of a driverless car as a robot. For Audi and other automakers, a key question is how much of the driving should be done by the robot, how much by the driver. The driver decides. Executives at Audi and other automakers say the driver, in any case, must remain engaged and attentive, ready to take over in the event of the unexpected: a car travelling the wrong way or out of control, for example. Audi executives won't use the word “driverless;” instead they speak about “piloted” driving. Other auto executives talk about “autonomous” or “assisted” driving. Only Google is adamant that it wants a driverless car, one that can help the elderly and the blind, as well as anyone who would rather be reading a book.
When it comes to self-driving car, which of the following is NOT the frequent topic?(A) When it is put into use. (B) Which automakers will first produce self-driving car. (C) Whether it is feasible. (D) Who will be responsible when an accident happens.
Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?(A) IHS claimed that there would be several models in 2025. (B) Google's (GOOG) self-driving Toyota Prius (TM) has been tested. (C) Audi A7 can monitor a driver's eyes to ensure he or she doesn't fall asleep at the wheel. (D) Self-driving car has been in use.
As for driverless car, decide(s) how much of the driving should be done by the car.(A) drivers (B) automakers (C) executives (D) nobody
According to the passage, drivers must even in driverless driving.(A) sleep (B) be attentive (C) take photos (D) do reading
According to Audi executives, which word is NOT proper for self-driving?(A) driverless (B) piloted (C) assisted (D) autonomous

3. You might think that the topic of “taking the bus” is a weird one to choose for this blog. And you might be right but taking the bus in Latin America is always a fascinating experience. In the UK, bus journeys are just boring and, more often than not, a necessity. Public transport is often convenient when you live or work in the city centre, as you can avoid traffic jams by whizzing
down the bus lanes, and do not have to pay to park the car. At the end of the day, though, taking the bus is just a necessary and tedious part of life: you board the bus, pay the driver and sit down (or find a place to stand). Very boring. In Latin America, however, bus trips can be very lively. For a start, intercity buses put on films so that you have entertainment for at least some of the journey. Naturally local transport does not show films but drivers usually switch on the radio and that can be a great way to hear new songs and new styles of music. (Disappointingly there is not much salsa music back home). Even better than films or music are the sights and sounds on the buses. Local buses always go to parts of town that you would not otherwise visit. There you see shops that you never knew existed. Visitors travelling on buses can see new aspects of a culture from the window seat of the bus. Passengers’ “luggage” is also interesting. It is not uncommon for a cheerful dog’s head to be poking out of somebody’s bag and for someone else to carry a chicken under their arm. Once on a bus in Peru, a farmer tied what looked like a dead sheep to the roof. I was quite shocked and even more so when the farmer got off the bus and, on taking the sheep off the roof, it trotted off very happily. On top of the same bus, another passenger had put his chainsaw. The sheep and power tool combination had me very nervous. There are really many things for visitors to do in Latin America. Taking the bus doesn’t sound like fun but it is much more exciting and unpredictable than any UK bus journey.
In the UK, taking the bus is fascinating.(A) T (B) F
In Latin America, when taking the bus, you can listen to music and see new aspects of a culture.(A) T (B) F
Public transport in the UK is convenient because a variety of means of public transportation are available.(A) T (B) F
As for bus trips in Latin America, passengers’ luggage can be interesting.(A) T (B) F
Bus journeys are unpredictable in Latin America.(A) T (B) F

4. It’s the question that every college student must answer: should you live on campus or off campus? Both options have their advantages and disadvantages, so it is crucial for you to weigh your choices before you make a final decision. Here are some pros and cons of living off campus. First, living off campus provides more freedom. You will not have to follow as many rules as those the residence halls have for on-campus students to abide by. Living off campus will give you
freedom from those rules and allow you to set your own. Second, you can enjoy your own privacy. Living off campus means that you will be more likely to have your own bedroom so you can have a place to sneak off and have time alone away from your roommates. The extra space also means that you can probably find a quiet place to study in the convenience of your own home. Third, living off campus will help you be more responsible. If you live off campus, you will be in charge of paying bills, cleaning house, grocery shopping, and cooking. However, living off campus is more expensive than on-campus housing. Utilities and cable can be an added monthly expense, and you may have to pay for your own Internet access. When living off campus, it may not be convenient for you to walk to campus so you would have to find transportation. Whether you drive your car or use a form of public transportation, it is still going to cost you money. In addition, if you live off campus you may not be as involved with campus activities as you would if you lived on campus. This could cause you to feel a sense of detachment with your college and you may not make as many friends. When deciding whether to live on campus or off campus, think about what is important to you. You may even want to put together a list of your own pros and cons. Keep in mind that some colleges do not let first-year students live in an off-campus apartment; you would either have to live in a residence hall or at home with your family. Check with your chosen school for regulations.
What is the article mainly about?(A) The pros and cons of living on campus. (B) The problems of living off campus. (C) The pros and cons of living off campus. (D) The benefits of living on campus.
What is one of the benefits of living off campus?(A) It costs a lot more. (B) You can enjoy the freedom from the residence halls rules. (C) You will be more irresponsible. (D) You may be less involved with campus utilities.
According to the article, what are in one’s pay list when living off campus?(A) Utilities and cable. (B) Transportation and internet access. (C) Furniture and clothes. (D) A and B.

5. Everybody has one, and yours will help determine the limits of success, happiness, and fulfillment in your life. We’re talking about personality; it is no exaggeration to state that your personality is one of your most important assets. It has already helped shape your life and will continue to do so in the future. All you have achieved thus far, all you expect to achieve in your career, whether you will be a good spouse or parent, and even your general state of health can be influenced by your personality and the personalities of the people with whom you interact. Your personality can limit or expand your options and choices in life. It can prevent you from sharing certain experiences with other people or enable you to make the most of them. It can restrict and constrain some people and open the world of experience to others. How often have you described someone as having a terrific personality? By that you typically mean the person is affable and pleasant. You might select this kind of person for a friend, roommate, or colleague at work. If you are a manager, you might choose to hire this person. If you are ready to make a commitment to a personal relationship, you might want to marry this person, basing your decision on your perception of his or her personality. You have also known people you would describe as having a terrible personality. Such persons may be aloof, hostile, aggressive, unfriendly, unpleasant, or difficult to get along with. You would not hire them or want to associate with them, and they may be similarly rejected, and isolated by others. While you are making judgments about the personalities of other people, they are making similar judgments about you. These mutual decisions that shape the lives of both the judged and the judges are made countless times, every time we encounter a social situation that requires us to interact with new people. Of course, the number and variety of social situations you willingly participate in are also determined by your personality, for example, your relative sociability or shyness.

Your personality may not decide .(A) whether you will be a good husband (B) whether you will be a good wife (C) whether you are intelligent (D) whether you are healthy
If a person has a terrific personality, he will be .(A) friendly, good-natured and easy to talk to (B) friendly, extroverted and good-natured (C) friendly, good-natured and talkative (D) extroverted, good-natured and easy to talk to
If a person has a terrible personality, he would be .(A) isolated (B) fired (C) hired (D) abused
What may influence the number and variety of social situations you willingly participate in?(A) Your wife. (B) Your husband. (C) Your sociability. (D) opposed

6. What’s the secret to being confident? Some people believe it’s having a positive mental attitude, while others claim it’s being wealthy. But according to one researcher, the answer may in fact lie in what we’re wearing. Professor Karen Pine from the University of Hertfordshire said that specific clothing?including even superhero T-shirts?can make people more confident in all sorts of situations. The research is outlined in her new book Mind What You Wear. In the book she claims clothing affects a person's mental processes and perceptions. Putting on different clothes creates different thoughts and mental processes. “My book aims to make people more aware of this, to understand how their clothes can change their mood and their thoughts.” In the study, she gathered a group of students and asked some to wear a superman T-shirt. She wanted to know if heroic clothing would change how students thought. Surprisingly, she found that not only did it make them more confident, but it also made them actually think they were physically stronger. \superior to other students,\she explained. \asked to estimate how much they could physically lift, those in a Superman T-shirt thought they were stronger than students in a plain T-shirt, or in their own clothing.\person's state of mind, though. In another test, women were asked to do a maths test in a swimsuit or wearing a sweater, with the latter group performing better. Wearing a white coat, meanwhile, was found to improve a person's mental agility. And in the book she claims when women are stressed, they neglect 90 percent of their wardrobe, choosing to dress up only to feel confident. In addition to scientific research, Professor Pine said she also has \on how to feel happier and more confident with the right clothes, explaining not only that we are what we wear, but that we become what we wear.\

7. For years, I’ve been fighting against what feels natural to me because I felt pressure to it. When I used to get dressed to go out I would put on a T-shirt and sneakers and feel great, but when I would walk into a bar and every girl around me was in heels and a mini dress, I often felt like the odd girl out. Anytime I was “dressed down” I would be told that I’d look better if I had makeup on, or was asked, “Is that really what you’re wearing?” So I learned to qualify it. “Oh, I didn’t bring anything nicer with me.” \The truth is that I feel comfortable in jeans and I don’t like to change before I go out. There's nothing wrong with that. Then why did I feel like there was? Part of it has to do with clothing options marketed to women and girls. What was available “for just us girls”? Usually it’s pink, frilly, or feminine. But I never felt those things were made for me or appealed to me. I decided to stop letting it get to me. In the past when I would get dressed for a date, I would try on multiple outfits. The first was what I wanted to wear on my date. The second was what my friends would tell me to wear. As I stood in front of the mirror, I would feel the frustration well up. I never want a guy that would want me in heels all the time. So I’d take off the dress that I had on ?the one I thought I should wear ? and put on what I was actually most comfortable wearing. And you know what? As soon as I did, I realized how great I looked. Girls who look unapologetically themselves are the best type of girls.
What message does the author mainly convey?(A) Girls should wear like girls in a bar or a party. (B) Jeans and sweaters will be the new fashion for girls. (C) Girls in any type of clothes with confidence are the best. (D) Wearing pink and frilly clothes is odd and out of fashion.
How did the author feel when she walked into a bar dressed down?(A) She felt herself quite different from other girls in the bar. (B) She felt at ease when other girls commented on her dress style. (C) She felt proud for not wearing high-heels like other girls. (D) She felt there was always discrimination around in the bar.
What did the author use to do for a date?(A) She used to put on what she liked quickly. (B) She used to buy some girls’ dress to put on. (C) She used to try on multiple outfits. (D) She used to dress what others suggest her dressing.
The followings are what the author qualifies for her casual dressing style EXCEPT .(A) I didn’t bring anything nicer with me. (B) I came straight from work. (C) Sorry, I’m not really
dressed. (D) I prefer jeans and sneakers.
Which of the following adjectives can best describe the author’s attitude towards clothes options marketed for girls?(A) Ironic. (B) Uninterested. (C) Approving. (D) Objective.

8. The 21st century has seen a new step forward in film technology: the 3-D revolution. Just five years ago it was very rare to see a 3-D film at a mainstream cinema, but in 2010, 50% of the ten highest grossing films of the year were 3-D. 3-D films are obviously very popular. The technology truly immerses you in the film and makes you feel like you’re part of the action. It can make you believe that you’re on Avatar’s planet Pandora when in fact you’re actually just sat in the cinema on a wet Tuesday afternoon. 3-D films reach out to the audience in a way that perhaps normal 2-D films do not. Audiences worldwide have shown they enjoy being more involved in a film and the popularity of 3-D films has helped improve box-office sales during the economic crisis, when people don’t usually spend extra money on entertainment. However, what’s good for film studios isn’t always good for audiences. 3-D film tickets do cost more than normal cinema tickets, and you must decide if seeing a film in 3-D is worth the extra money. Some people say that 3-D technology makes films more involving, and surely that’s the purpose of the script, acting and direction. If a film’s budget is being spent on 3-D then less is being spent on these three things, which used to be all a film needed to make it involving. What’s more, several films are being turned into 3-D after they have been made in 2-D, rather than being made in 3-D from the start. This produces a weaker effect and can be seen as a way of studios cashing in on the popularity of 3-D whilst actually creating an inferior product. For example, why did Disney need to re-release The Lion King in 3-D? How much new technology was added to a film that was already fantastic? Not only are some studios charging higher prices for lower quality films, but many people get headaches from wearing 3-D glasses. It’s possible that the new, popular technology is still not advanced enough to be more than a passing craze, and film-makers that misuse the technology and produce weak films will lessen the popularity of 3-D.
In 2010, of the ten top-grossing movies of the year were 3-D.(A) less than 50% (B) more than 50% (C) 10% (D) half
According to paragraph 2, 3-D technology indeed the audience in the film.(A) involves (B) dips (C) submerses (D) puts
Which advantage could 3-D films bring to the studios?(A) The studios could charge the audience higher prices. (B) The studios could produce higher-quality films. (C) The studios could master
more perfect and advanced techniques. (D) Script, acting and direction of films could become better.
For the audience, which one is the disadvantage of 3-D films?(A) They feel like they are part of the action in the film. (B) They pay less money for 3-D film. (C) 3-D technology makes films less attractive. (D) 3-D glasses are uncomfortable for them.
What is the author’s attitude toward 3-D films?(A) Neutral. (B) Supportive. (C) Scornful. (D) opposed

9. No man is an island, but sometimes when you're traveling, it can feel like it. Mannerisms, timing and dress can set you apart from the local population, making it difficult to successfully immerse yourself in a new place. Yet with a bit of research and some strategic adjustments, you can easily find ways to blend in, rub shoulders with locals, and become a true piece of the continent you're exploring. Adjust your volume Americans tend to be loud talkers. Maybe it's all our wide-open spaces or our general exuberance; whatever the reason, our volume tends to distinguish us from the locals in many destinations. Turning it down a notch when you speak not only allows you to blend better but also limits the distance at which locals can identify that you're speaking a foreign language. Loud and proud but still yearning to blend in? Take heart?there are plenty of countries where loud talking is the norm. Find the right country and you can turn it up to 11 without drawing sidelong glances from locals. Read up on the customs Whatever you do, don't point with your index finger in the Philippines. Or give a thumbs-up in Greece. Or touch anyone on the head in Thailand. There's no faster way to call attention to yourself as a clueless foreigner than by stumbling into a cultural faux pas you could have easily avoided by reading up on local customs. Not only can a quick primer on body language, hand gestures and greetings keep you from unwittingly offending those around you, it's also a perfect window into your host culture. Go at the pace of your destination As a long-time fast walker who has spent time in some pretty relaxed destinations, I can attest that moving at a different speed than the population you're surrounded by can make you look not just out of place but downright crazy. As you get a feel for a new place, take time to notice the speed at which life is conducted. You may need to speed up or slow down, but the payoff is big. Because it's only when you're walking, talking and living at the speed of the culture that you can properly appreciate its unique rhythms.
Which of the following is NOT MENTIONED as the factor to distinguish travellers from locals?(A) mannerism (B) dress (C) timing (D) language
According to the writer, American travelers should .(A) speak loudly (B) adjust their volume according to the locals (C) lower their voice (D) speak local accent
Which of the following taboo is NOT MENTIONED?(A) Give a thumbs-up in Greece. (B) Touch anyone on the head in Thailand. (C) Be late for the appointment in Australia. (D) Point with your index finger in the Philippines.
In order to get to know the host culture, travellers should know . (A) body language (B) hand gestures (C) greetings (D) all of the above
What is the tone of the passage?(A) Instructive. (B) Skeptical. (C) Neutral. (D) Approval.
