I recently visited London and travelled on the tube while I was there. Apart from the people 1 , almost everybody else was on their phones, and because of the nature of the tube, it is difficult not to see 2 what they are all doing. Of course, being 3 it is difficult to get any signal, which rules out texting or using the Internet, 4 there is still plenty you can use your phones for. People were playing 5 , reading articles and listening to music, and Im sure that as soon as they 6 from the train station they would start texting or calling or checking their emails. There is a constant 7 to everyone in the world, 8 you have a mobile phone in your hand. Recently, my smartphone broke and had to be 9 to the warehouse for 10 for a week or so. In the meantime I had to use a really 11 , basic phone just to keep in touch with my family and friends. All I could do on this phone was send 12 , make calls and play one game. And I loved it. I loved being free from the Internet, and I really didnt mind not having constant 13 about what my friends were doing or what the latest celebrity story was. It was quite 14 and it allowed me to spend more time 15 my surroundings I could 16 my time in London more, for example, and I could watch the people around me and really see what was going on. 17 , I knew that as soon as I got my smartphone back I would be one of those people once again, 18 to finding out what everyone is doing and 19 my time playing games or checking social network sites. Perhaps I should just go back to using the basic phone and 20 I ever got my smartphone back.1.A.presentB.asleepC.disabledD.opposite2.A.exactlyB.carefullyC.immediatelyD.sensitively3.A.crowdedB.farawayC.outdoorsD.underground4.A.andB.butC.soD.or5.A.cardsB.recordsC.gamesD.jokes6.A.survivedB.separatedC.sufferedD.emerged7.A.approachB.connectionC.accessD.communication8.A.as far asB.as long asC.as soon asD.as well as9.A.given awayB.left behindC.sent offD.sold out10.A.changeB.recycleC.repairD.use11.A.cheapB.familiarC.modernD.old12.A.e-mailsB.massagesC.photosD.signals13.A.actionsB.worriesC.updatesD.complaints14.A.boringB.embarrassingC.inspiringD.refreshing15.A.getting acrossB.looking afterC.taking inD.thinking about16.A.costB.enjoyC.wasteD.save17.A.HoweverB.InsteadC.OtherwiseD.Therefore18.A.opposedB.equalC.addictedD.blind19.A.burdeningB.devotingC.sparingD.wasting20.A.insistB.forgetC.denyD.admit3、阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I used to abandon myself to despair(自暴自弃).

However,life can be 1 when you are not busy finding fault with it.Several years ago I 2 a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry, who described herself as a world-class fault-finder, almost always 3 by things. People were always doing things that annoyed her,and 4 was ever good enough. She was highly self-critical and also found fault with her friends. She became a really 5 person.Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her 6 .Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash. What made it almost 7 to deal with was that the day before the 8, Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her 9 of boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother,and various other things she felt she needed to 10 .It wasnt until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became 11 her habit of finding fault. Very quickly, she learned to appreciate life rather than to 12 everything so harshly(刻薄). She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her 13 as well.Perhaps most of us arent as extreme at fault-finding, 14 when were honest,we can be sharply 15 of the world. Im not suggesting you 16 problems, or that you pretend things are 17 than they are,but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are 18 most of the time,and especially when its not areally big 19 .Train yourself to “bite your tongue”,and with a little 20 ,youll get really good at letting things go. And when you do,youll get back your enthusiasm and love for life.1.A.lonelyB.greatC.quietD.uneasy2.A.receivedB.answeredC.expectedD.rejected3.A.threatenedB.interruptedC.botheredD.spoiled4.A.anythingB.everythingC.somethingD.nothing5.A.caringB.boringC.interestingD.surprising6.A.attitudeB.planC.measureD.explanation7.A.urgentB.unnecessaryC.certainD.impossible8.A.occasionB.eventC.accidentD.adventure9.A.memoryB.noticeC.evidenceD.choice10.A.hearB.contributeC.expressD.admit11.A.aware ofB.afraid ofC.curious aboutD.confused about12.A.discussB.realizeC.judgeD.settle13.A.familyB.lifeC.careerD.education14.A.soB.orC.butD.for15.A.proudB.sureC.hopefulD.critical16.A.faceB.createC.solveD.ignore17.A.rarerB.betterC.strangerD.worse18.A.at leastB.at lastC.by farD.so far19.A.taskB.dealC.resultD.duty20.A.practiceB.speechC.restD.pity 6、 I will always remember my English teacher whose husband died of a sudden heart attack when I was in high school.
