A

Many college students want to look for seasonal, short-term or part-time jobs

to get extra cash, to stay busy or to get working experience. Lifeguard

The job is a great opportunity to build your fitness, keep people safe and be

outdoors to enjoy some fun on the beach in the sun. The average hourly wage for

lifeguards is $ 9.31, but those with certifications or previous experience may be

able to earn a bit more.

Nanny (保姆)

Students can find plenty of positions as parents scramble (争抢) to arrange

activities and find care for their children. Students who enjoy spending time with

kids, staying active and being outdoors can spend their leisure time making money

without even feeling like they're working. Nannies make $ 14.56 per hour. Camp Consultant

Students who enjoy spending their time with children, being a leader and

monitoring fun outdoor activities are perfect for camp consultant positions. The

average hourly wage for camp consultants is $9.28, but those with many years'

experience or specific academic backgrounds may be able to earn more. Food Server

Although it may not seem like the most attractive way to spend a weekend, working

as wait staff allows students to build up their social skills, stay active, enjoy

free meals at work and posily educate themselves about different cuisines. However,

food servers need to be on their feet for hours at a time and must be able to multi-task like professionals, so take this into account before submitting an application. The 

average salary is $ 9.00 hourly, but trips can raise that number. 

1. Who are the two jobs nanny and camp consultant most fit for?

A. Students who want to develop their social skills.

B. Students who love staying with children.

C. Students who love traveling.

D. Students who love camping.

2. What should you take into consideration before applying to be a food server?

A. The way of cooking.

B. The food you can enjoy. 

C. Long standing time at work.

D. Skill in getting tips from customers.

3. What job can you do if you're good at swimming?

A. A lifeguard.    B. A nanny.     C. A camp consultant.    D. A food server.

B

Connie Monroe clicks a button, flicks her wrist and watches as her neighborhood

floods. The shorelines are first to go. Then, the baseball fields at Fleming Park.

By the time seawater reaches the senior center, it has flooded streets and over a

dozen brick homes. Monroe moves her head up and down, side to side, taking in the

simulated (仿真的) view. This is what could happen to Turner Station, a historic African American community southeast of Baltimore, as sea levels rise.

Climate change presents many challenges to coastal communities and to those trying

to prepare for its impacts, but one of the most basic is also one of the most vexing: How do you show people and convince them of a possible future?

Communicating the realness and immediacy of the climate threat is hugely important

to climate researchers and those aiming to lessen its causes. But it's also the most

important to communities faced with coming changes that are already unavoidable. These

projects need public support and input. That's why Monroe and other residents (居民) are being directed to sit in metal chairs, put on virtual reality headsets and watch their homes flood.

Turner Station, a community which gets flooded easily, is trying to prepare. It

has partnered with the Port of Baltimore, a few nonprofits and a local landscape

architecture firm to adopt a range of tools and ways to communicate climate change to the public, because every person is different and every place is different.

The virtual reality program is only the most recent, and perhaps the most effective

step. Virtual reality is an immersive experience that can trick the human brain into

thinking it's real. But tricking people is not the goal of the sea level rise simulation

being used at Turner Station, says Juiano Calil, one of the program's developers.

“The goal,” he says, “is to start a conversation and help folks visualize the

impacts of climate change and the solutions, and also discuss the trade-offs between

them.” 

4. Who is Monroe?

A. A coastal community citizen. C. An architect.

B. A climate researcher. D. AVR program developer.

5. What does the underlined word “vexing” mean in paragraph 2?

A. Bothersome.    B. Dramatic.     C. Original.   D. Convincing.

6. Why is VR technology employed here?

A. It can cut down the risks of climate change.

B. It can show severe results of climate change.

C. It can introduce technology to the residents.

D. It can predict the climate change accurately.

7. What is the purpose of the program?

A. To trick more people to believe.        B. To win the residents' cooperation.

C. To advocate the application of VR.   D. To inform the residents of the solutions.

C

Before the end of the year, employees at Ubiquitous Energy, a company in Redwood

City, Calif, will gather in a window-lined conference room to stare toward the future.

That's because their new glass windows will offer more than an amazing view of the

North California landscape. They will also be able to power the company's lights, computers and air conditioners.

Several years in the making, Ubiquitous' energy-producing glass is a remarkable

technological achievement. Its power lies in the layers of organic polymers (聚合物) between sheets of glass. As light enters the window,the flow of electrons between

the polymer layers creates an electric current, which is then collected by tiny wires in the glass.

“It's sort of like a transparent computer display run in reverse (反过来),”

says Veeral Hardev, director of business development at Ubiquitous Energy. “Instead

of electricity being shuttled to different points in a display to light them up, light

is producing electricity to be shuttled out of different points in the window.”

Right now the windows produce about a third as much electricity from a given amount

of sunlight as the typical solar cells used in roof panels (板).These windows, about

half as transparent as ordinary glass, don't work as well as transparent ones. Hardev

says the company is likely to improve the transparency significantly. As for the lower

output of electricity, he notes that windows can cover a much greater surface area

than a roof, so numerous windows will produce a surprisingly larger amount of

electricity than the production from a rooftop full of higher-efficiency solar panels.

“You could do both.” says Hardev. “But you'll get more from the windows. The

biggest challenge, he adds, is increasing the windows from less than two square feet

currently to about 50 square feet.” 

8. What makes the new glass windows special?

A. They can offer an amazing view.   

B. They are controlled by computers.

C. They can power the conference room.

D. They can help stare toward the future.

9. What is Hardev trying to explain in Paragraph 3?

A. The source of light. 

B. The significance of different points.

C. The similarity of computer and glass. 

D. The working principle of energy-producing glass.

10. What can affect power production according to the passage?

A. The transparency of the glass. 

B. The quality of the rooftop.

C. The height of the solar panels.

D. The thickness of the glass.

11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A. Windows: A New Challenge of Technology

B. Windows: No Longer Just for Letting in the Light

C. Power: A Pressing Problem in the Near Future

D. Power: Not Enough from Rooftop Solar Panels

D

If you've spent any amount of time boating, fishing, or bird-watching at lakes

and rivers, you have most likely seen fishes jumping out of the water. I have seen

it many times. Certainly, fishes will exit water in desperate attempts to escape

enemies. Dolphins take advantage of the behavior, forming a circle and catching the

frightened fishes in midair. But just as we may run fast from fun or from fear, different emotions might motivate fishes to jump.

Mobula rays（蝸鲼）aren't motivated by fear when they throw their impressive

bodies—up to a seventeen-foot wingspan (the distance from the end of one wing to

the end of the other) and a ton in weight—skyward in leap（跳跃）of up to ten feet.

They do it in schools（鱼群）of hundreds. They usually land on their bellies, but

sometimes they land on their backs. Some scientists think it might be a way of removing

parasites（寄生虫）. But I think that the rays are enjoying themselves.

In the clear waters of Florida's Chassahowitzka National Wildlife Refuge, I

watched several schools of fifty or more mullets（鲻鱼）moving in beautiful formation.

Their well-built bodies were most evident when they leaped from the water. Most of

the time I saw one or two leaps by a fish, but one made a series of seven. They usually

land on their sides. Each jump was about a foot clear of the water and two to three feet in length.

Nobody knows for sure why the fish leaps. One idea is that they do it to take

in oxygen. The idea is supported by the fact that mullets leap more when the water

is lower in oxygen, but is challenged by the likelihood that jumping costs more energy

than is gained by breathing air. It is hard to imagine they will feel any fresher when back in water.

Might these fishes also be leaping for fun? There is some new evidence. Gordon

M. Burghardt recently published accounts of a dozen types of fishes leaping repeatedly,

sometimes over floating objects—sticks, plants, sunning turtle—for no clear reason

other than entertainment. 

12. What can we say about the dolphins in Paragraph 1?

A. They have great escaping skills. C. They are very clever.

B. They are easily frightened. D. They love jumping.

13. What do the ray and the mullet have in common when jumping?

A. Both do it in groups.

B. Both land on their bellies.

C. Both jump many feet out of water.

D. Both make leaps one after the other.

14. How does the author feel about the idea mentioned in Paragraph 4?

A. It is valuable.   B. It is interesting.   C. It is imaginative.   D. It is questionable.

15. Which may be the reason for fish leaps according to the author?

A. To remove parasites.   

B. To amuse themselves.

C. To take in more oxygen. 

D. To express positive emotions.

At Dana's yard sale, Tim chose a baseball from the toys spread on the card table

and asked about the price. Dana told him everything was a quarter except Nezumi,a

cotton toy rat. It was gray with some cotton sticking out from the hole where an ear

had been torn off. “Nezumi is extra special, so he has ten dollars. He needs a safe

new home,” Dana sighed.

Tim laughed saying he didn't have ten dollars. Dana laughed, too and gave Nezumi

to Tim as a free gift because he was her friend. When Tim whispered it was sort of

old, Dana said old toys were the best. She then invited Tim to her birthday party

the next evening, adding that her parents were giving her a real rat for her birthday.

Tim was amazed and asked if it was a live rat. “Of course,” Dana said.

At home, Tim's mother showed him the gift she had bought for Dana. It was a

knitting spool (编织线轴) shaped like a mushroom. Mom said Dana could knit a scarf for her doll. Tim sighed that Dana wasn't a knitting kind of person but a rat kind of person. Mom laughed after knowing what had happened. Together they drove to the

pet store, where Tim searched and searched and selected a clear plastic ball, one

in which the rat could run around on the floor safe from cats and dogs. Tim thought

of Nezumi's ear and decided Dana's new rat would need this ball.

The next day, Dana brought cupcakes to class. When she handed a cupcake to Tim,she

asked if Tim brought Nezumi to school as Nezumi liked to ride in backpacks. Tim was

at a loss because Nezumi was at home on his bed. Then Dana asked what gift he was

giving her. Tim replied it was a surprise. In silence they sat for a while before

he heard Dana say her parents were giving her a new bike for her birthday instead

of a live rat because they thought rats would bite things.

第二节Paragraph 1:

At home that afternoon, Tim stared at the plastic rat ball. Wondering about the use of the clear plastic ball if Dana had no rat, he started walking up and down the room with a frown on his face. Mom was surprised and asked him what was happening. Tim told her Dana wasn't getting a live rat from her parents but a bike. As they were racking their brains to come up with an appropriate gift, Tim turned around and saw Nezumi on his bed.

Paragraph 2:

All of a sudden, he had an idea. All of a sudden, he had an idea. He lifted Nezumi and squeezed Nezumi into the plastic ball with great caution so that Nezumi would be safe from cats and dogs. Seeing this, Mom asked Tim whether he was giving Dana an old cotton rat with one ear as a gift, Tim nodded with a smile saying she would definitely like it. Looking at Mom's confused expression, Tim added that Dana was a Nezumi kind of person who thought old toys were the best.
