The slightest move makes you jump with pain. Nothing could be worse than a pain in the neck.That is why we use the phrase to describe some people who give you the same feeling. We have all met such people.One is the man who always seems to be clapping his handsoften at the wrong timeduring a performance in the theater. He keeps you from hearing the actors.Even worse are those who can never arrive before the curtain goes up and the play begins. They e hurrying down to your row of seats. You are fortably settled down, with your hat and heavy coat in your lap. You must stand up to let them pass. You are proud of yourself-control after they have settled into their seatsWell, what nowGod, one of them is up again. He forgot to go to the mens room, and once more you have to stand up, hanging on to your hat and coat to let him pass. Now, that is “a pain in the neck”.Another, wellknown to us all, is the person sitting behind you in the movies. His mouth is full of popcorn (爆米花); he is chewing（嚼）loudly, or talking between bites to friends next to him. None of them remain still. Up and down, back and forth, they gofor another bag of popcorn, or something to drink.Then, there is the man sitting next to you at lunch, smoking. He wants you to enjoy it too, and blows smoke across your food into your mouth.We must not forget the man who es into a bus or subway and sits down next to you, just as close as you will let him. You are reading the newspaper and he gets closer so that he can read the paper with you. He may even turn the paper to the next page before you are ready for it.We also call such a person a “rubber neck”, always getting close to where it does not belong, like neighbors who watch all your visitors. They enjoy learning about your personal business. People have a strong dislike for “rubber necks”. They hate being watched secretly.1Where can you find this passage?A. In a medicine dictionary. B. in a kids story book. C. In a social science book. D. In a science textbook.2According to the passage, how do you feel when late ers walk back and forth in front of you in a cinema?A.disturbed. B.bored. C.ignored. D. relaxed.3A “rubber neck” often _ .A. says bad words behind people. B. quarrels face to face with neighbors.C. bargains with salespeople over the price D. asks about other peoples business4Which of the following persons CANNOT be described as a “pain in the neck”?A. Someone who often claps at the wrong time during a performance.B. Someone who feels ache in his neck due to a cold in the muscles.C. Someone who sits next to you smoking, which you never enjoy. D. Someone who keeps eating or talking all through the movies. 5What is the main purpose of the author? A. To tell people what might be bad manners in public.B. To criticize (批评) the people who might be a “pain in the neck” C. To show anger to those who are described as a “pain in the neck”. D. To tell people how to stop the pain in the neck. B“I sometimes get up at three or four in the morning and I surf the net.”“I often check my e-mail forty times a day.”“I often spend more than three hours during one time on the net.”“I spend more time in chat rooms(聊天室) than with my real-1ife friends.”Do you know any people like these? They are part of a new addiction(瘾) called Internet addiction. Internet addicts spend at least thirty to forty hours online every week. The use of the Internet can be an addiction like drug(毒品) use. People lose control(控制)of the time they spend on the InternetFor example, one college student was missing for several days. His friends were worried, and they called the police. The police found the student in the puter lab: he was surfing the net for several days straight. Studies show that about 6 to 10% of Internet users bee addicted. And people worry about the teens because the Internet is changing the playing field for some of them.They spend more time in cyberspace than in the real world of friends and family. Is “surfing the net” a hobby or an addiction for you? You may have a problem if you have these symptoms(症状):You do not go to important family activities or you do not do school work because you like to spend hours on the Internet.You cant wait for your next online time. You plan to spend a short time online, but then you spend several hours. You go out with your friends less and less.根据以上短文内容，然后从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。1What does the beginning of the passage tell us?A.

It is estimated（估计） that over 35 million Americans have physical, mental, or other disabilities. About half of these disabilities are “developmental, i.e., they occur before the individuals twenty-second birthday, often from genetic conditions, and are severe enough to affect three or more areas of development, such as mobility, munication, employment, etc. Most other disabilities are considered “adventitious, i.e., accidental or caused by outside forces.Prior to the 20th century, only a small percentage of people with disabilities survived for long. Medical treatment for these disabilities was unavailable. Advancements in medicine and social services have created a climate in which people with disabilities can expect to have such basic needs as food, shelter, and medical treatment. Unfortunately, these basics are often not available. Civil liberties such as the right to vote, marry, get an education, and gain employment have historically been denied on the basis of disability.In recent decades, the disability rights movement has been organized to fight against these infringements（违反, 侵犯）of civil rights. Congress responded by passing major legislation recognizing people with disabilities as a protected class under civil rights statutes.Still today, people with disabilities must fight to live their lives independently. It is estimated that more than half of qualified Americans with disabilities are unemployed, and a majority of those who do work are underemployed. About two-thirds live at or below the official poverty level.Significant barriers, especially in transportation and public awareness, prevent disabled people from taking part in society. For example, while no longer prohibited by law from marrying, a person with no access to transportation is effectively excluded from munity and social activities which might lead to the development of long-term relationships.Only when public attitudes advance as far as laws have will disabled people be fully able to take their rightful place in society.1A “developmental disability _.A. develops very slowly over time B. occurs in youth and affects development C. is caused by forces D. is getting more and more severe2Most disabled people used to die early because _.

A. more laws should be passed B. more public facilities should be set upC. government should provide more aids D. public attitudes should be changed 4Which of the following cannot be inferred from the passage? A. Many disabled people may remain single for their whole life.B. Discriminatory（带歧视性的）laws prevent the disabled from mixing with others.C. The public tends to look down upon the disabled people. D. The disabled people feel inferior to（低于）those surrounding them.5The best title for this passage might be _. A. Handicaps（障碍）of People with Disabilities B. The physical difficulties of the Disabled C.
