Breaking Dawn Twilight Eclipse New MoonBWhen Scotsman Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876, it was a revolution in communication For the first time, people could talk to each other over great distances almost as clearly as if they were in the same room Nowadays, though, we increasingly use Bell s invention for taking photographs, accessing the internet, or watching video clips, rather than talking Over the last two decades a new means of spoken communication has appeared: the mobile phone The first real mobile telephone call was made in 1973 by Dr Martin Cooper, the scientist who invented the modem mobile handset Within a decade, mobile phones became available to the public The streets of modem cities began to feature sharp-suited characters shouting into giant plastic bricks In Britain the mobile phone quickly became the same with the yuppie , the new type of young urban professionals who carried the expensive handsets as status symbols Around this time many of us said that we would never own a mobile phone But in the mid-90s, something happened Cheaper handsets and cheaper calling rates meant that, almost overnight, it seemed that everyone had a mobile phone And the giant plastic bricks of the 80s had changed into smooth little objects that fitted nicely into pockets and bags Moreover, people s timekeeping changed Younger readers will be amazed to know that, not long ago, people made spoken arrangements to meet at a certain place at a certain time But later Meeting times became approximate under the new order of communication: the Short Message Service （SMS） or text message Going to be late? Send a text message! It takes much less effort than arriving on time, and it s much less awkward than explaining your lateness face to face and the text message has changed the way we write in English Traditional rules of grammar and spelling are much less important when you re sitting on the bus, hurriedly typing Will B 15mm late - C U the bar Sorry! - ） Alexander Graham Bell would be amazed if he could see how far the science of telephony has progressed in less than 150 yearsIf he were around today, he might say That s gr8! But I m v busy rite nowWill call U 2nite58. What does the underlined part in Para 2 refer to? A Houses of modern cities B Sharp-suited characters C New type of professionals D Mobile phones59. According to Paragraph 4, why did Meeting times become approximate? A People were more likely to be late for their meeting B SMS made it easier to inform each other C Young people don t like unchanging things D Traditional customs were dying out60. If you want to meet your friend at the school gate this evening, which of the following message can you send him?

Many of us use a lift several times during the day without really thinking about it. But Lee Gray, PhD, of the University of North Carolina, US, has made it his business to examine this overlooked form of public transport. He is known as the “Elevator Guy”. “The lift becomes this interesting social space where etiquette (礼仪) is sort of odd (奇怪的),” Gray told the BBC. “They elevators are socially very interesting but often very awkward places.” We walk in and usually turn around to face the door. If someone else comes in, we may have to move. And here, according to Gray, liftusers unthinkingly go through a set pattern of movements. He told the BBC what he had observed. He explained that when you are the only one inside a lift, you can do whatever you want its your own little box. If there are two of you, you go into different corners, standing diagonally (对角线地) across from each other to create distance. When a third person enters, you will unconsciously form a triangle. And when there is a fourth person it becomes a square, with someone in every corner. A fifth person is probably going to have to stand in the middle. New entrants to the lift will need to size up the situation when the doors slide open and then act decisively. Once in, for most people the rule is simple look down, or look at your phone. Why are we so awkward in lifts? “You dont have enough space,” Professor Babette Renneberg, a clinical psychologist at the Free University of Berlin, told the BBC. “Usually when we meet other people we have about an arms length of distance between us. And thats not possible in most elevators.” In such a small, enclosed space it becomes very important to act in a way that cannot be construed (理解) as threatening or odd. “The easiest way to do this is to avoid eye contact,” she said.62.The main purpose of the article is to _. A. remind us to enjoy ourselves in the elevator B. tell us some unwritten rules of elevator etiquette C. share an interesting but awkward elevator ride D. analyze what makes people feel awkward in an elevator63. According to Gray, when people enter an elevator, they usually _. A. turn around and greet one anotherB. look around or examine their phoneC. make eye contact with those in the elevator D. try to keep a distance from other people64. Which of the following describes how people usually stand when there are at least two people in an elevator? 65. The underlined phrase “size up” in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to _. A. judge B. ignore C. put up with D. make the best of66. According to the article, people feel awkward in lifts because of _. A. someones odd behaviors B. the lack of space C. their unfamiliarity with one another D. their eye contact with one anotherDIt had been a difficult move. Id left my family and friends in Indiana, the beloved state where Id lived most of my life. My new home in Florida was thousands of miles away from anything I knew. It was hotall the time. Jobs were hard to come by, but I was up for almost any challenge.At last, I taught in a special school where students have severe learning and behavioral difficulties.Another teacher and I had spent weeks teaching the children appropriate behavior for public outings. Unexpectedly, only a few students, including Kyle, had not earned the privilege of going. He was determined to make his disappointment known.In the corridor(走廊) between classrooms, he began screaming, cursing, spitting, and swinging at anything within striking distance. Once his outburst died down, he did what hed done when he was angry at all his other schools, at home, even once at a juvenile detention(拘留)center. He ran.People watched in disbelief as Kyle dashed straight into the heavy morning traffic in front of the school.I heard someone shout, “Call the police!”But I ran after him.Kyle was at least a foot taller than me. And he was fast. His older brothers were track stars at the nearby high school. But I could run long distances without tiring. I would at least be able to keep him in my sight and know he was alive.After several blocks of running directly into oncoming traffic, Kyle slowed his pace. He took a sharp left. Standing next to a trash bin, Kyle bent over with his hands on his knees. I must have looked ridiculous. But his was not a look of fear. I saw his body relax. He did not attempt to run again. Kyle stood still and watched me approach. I had no idea what I was going to say or do, but I kept walking closer.He opened his mouth to speak when a police car pulled up, abruptly filling the space between Kyle and me. The school principal and an officer got out. They spoke calmly to Kyle, who willingly climbed into the back of the vehicle. I couldnt hear what was said, but I didnt take my eyes off Kyles face, even as they drove away.I couldnt help but feel that I had failed him, that I should have done or said more, that I should have fixed the situation.I shared my feelings with a speech therapist who was familiar with Kyles his
