But whats the story aboutthe Apple logo? The image of the apple is obvious, because thats the name of the company.What about the bite? The famous story is that the logo shows respect and honourfor Alan Turing. He was the father of computer science. He researched artificialintelligence（人工智能） and unlocked German wartime codes（密码）. However, after the war, he was put into prison, because of his beliefs. He could not standthe looking down and chose to bite a poisoned apple to end his life in the prison. However, Rob Janoff, who designed the famous Apple logo, said, Its not the truth, but only a legend（传说）. The real reason why I designed it with a bite is very simple. I wanted people to get that it was an apple not a cherry. When I go to markets to buy apples, I always mistake apples for cherries. It really has nothing to do with the scientist. Are you kidding? An apple is much bigger than a cherry. Its very easy to tell. But if you use an apple to design a logo, some people may mistake it for a cherry.51. Who was the father of computer science? A. Alan. B. Rob. C. Janoff. D. We dont know.52. Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word kidding? A. A little child. B. Joking. C. A kind of logo. D. Nodding.53. Whats the purpose of writing the passage about the apple logo? A. To introduce its designer. B. To tell us a legend about it.C. To try to find the truth of it. D. To explain its market research. BWhen a cake is brought to the table at a birthday party, it is usually decorated with candles. It is said that the tradition of lighting birthday candles was invented by the ancient Greeks; it has taken on different meanings through the years. Today, one of the most popular birthday traditions is to blow out the candles all at once to make a secret wish come true. In order to please Artemis, the goddess of the moon, the ancient Greeks arranged something special for birthdays. A moon-shaped cake was baked and decorated with lit candles. They thought the smoke from the candles would carry an offering(祭品) up into the sky, where they believed Artemis lived. The tradition of lighting birthday candles continued in Europe, where candles were sometimes kept burning all day on a persons birthday, partly as celebration and partly to keep away evil spirits. It was believed that the blowing out of candles represented ones prayers to the gods. Some cultures believe it is a bad luck to blow out the candles until after the evening meal is eaten. Traditionally, one candle represents a year of the persons age. Some families prefer to add an extra candle for good luck. But that practice is improper when a very young child is celebrating a third birthday. Generally, older peoples birthdays are celebrated by placing just a few candles to represent, such as an eight for 80th birthday. Todays birthday candles are made in different shapes, like animals or flowers. One or two candles in the shape of numbers are sometimes used instead of lots of candles; for example, a four-shaped and a zero-shaped candle would represent 40. 54.Why did the ancient Greeks arrange something special for birthdays? A. To make their dreams come true. B. To celebrate a persons birthday. C. To protect themselves from evil spirits.D. To please the goddess of the moon.55.What is the tradition of lighting candles for birthdays like in Europe? A. The candles were always kept burning all day on a persons birthday. B. The blowing out of candles represented ones prayers to the god. C. Some cultures believe it is right to blow out the candles before the evening meal. D. The Europeans sometimes keep burning the candles all day just as a celebration. 56.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs? A. In some families, people would add an extra candle without any special meaning. B. It is common to see a cake with four candles on a three-year-old childs birthday. C. Traditionally, people can use an eight-shaped and a zero-shaped candle to represent 80. D. Usually one candle is placed on a cake for each year of the persons age.CIf you could see a movie of your life before you lived it, would you want to live it? Probably not. The excitement of living is that you dont know whats coming.Sure, its hard to see uncertainty in such positive（积极的）light when youre out of work, or when you feel like youre failing. But uncertainty is really another word for chance.When Allison graduated from Harvard, she had chances all over the place but had no idea what she wanted to do. She took a job in consulting（咨询）, but she knew she wouldnt stay there. She took the GRE and scored so high that she was able to increase her income by teaching students. Still, she didnt think she wanted to go to graduate school（研究院）. Allison knew she wasnt doing what she wanted, but she didnt know what she wanted.She worried. All her friends were going to graduate school or starting their own businesses. She was lost and felt that she would never find anything out. After six years, Allison, by having a general plan in mind, got married, moved to the Midwest and used her consulting experience to get a great job. Allison realized that she spent her years finding her way: time well spent.The only way to lead an interesting life is to face uncertainty. Otherwise your life is not your ownit is a path someone else has chosen. Moments of uncertainty are when you create your life, when you become who you are. Uncertainty usually begins with a job hunt, but it doesnt end there. Every new role we take on means another round of uncertainty. Instead of fearing it, you should find some ways to deal with uncertainty. 57. From the first two paragraphs, we can learn that . A. being out of work is a sad thing B. uncertainty is what makes life interesting C. life in a film is more exciting than real life D. chance never appears when we need it58. What troubles Allison after graduation? A. She couldnt find a well-paid job. B. She had no money to start a business. C. She was not sure what to do.D. She didnt score high enough for graduate school. 59. How did Allison feel about her six years working experience? A. Uncertain. B. Amazed. C. Sorry. D. Satisfied.60. What may be discussed in the following paragraph? A. How to deal with uncertainty. B. What role uncertainty plays in life. C. Why people fear uncertainty. D. Whom to go to when facing uncertainty.DImagine the situation. You are driving along a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device(装置) which uses satellites (卫星) to find the users position. It can find your position to within 20 metres. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates(计算) its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate(精确的). There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.( B ) 61.According to the passage, with the help of the GPS, people _.A. can spend the least time getting to another place B. cant be lost in a new cityC. can learn about the culture of a new place D. cant find their way in different countries( B ) 62.We can learn from the passage that _.A. there are three parts to the GPS B. a GPS cant be put into a watchC. a GPS can help you start your car D. the GPS are becoming more and more expensive( B ) 63.The underlined word “They” in paragraph 3 means “_”.A.

Ground stations( B ) 64.The passage is mainly about _.A. the history of the GPS B. the shape of the GPSC. the introduction of the GPS D. the three parts of the GPS( B )65.What can we infer from the passage?A. All GPS devices have electronic maps.B. People in many countries will use the GPS for free.C. The receiver of the GPS contacts at least five of the satellites.D.
