With the Winners Club you can choose to use handy tellers and to bank from home using the phone and the Internet You can have money directly deposited into your Winners Club account. This could be your pocket money or your pay from your parttime job!Z&X&X&KFix it on your ownDid you know that a bowl of rice could save your iPod if you drop it in a swimming pool by accident? Or that the camera on your phone could tell you whats wrong with your TV remote control? The experts at Geek Squad (geelsquad.co.uk) have made a gadget (小机件) rescue guide. So, lets take a look at some of their useful advice. How to get more juice out of your phone batteryIf your battery goes dead but you need to get a number or send one last text, try warming it up. That may give you a tiny bit of power. Take the battery from the phone and rub it between your hands. Or warm it under your arm for a few minutes. Then try to start the phone but use it quickly. What to do if your gadget gets wetFirst, try drying it out with a vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器). If a vacuum cleaner isnt at hand, fill a pot or bowl with uncooked rice and put your wet gadget inside. The dry, uncooked rice will absorb all the water and, after a few hours, you should be able to use the gadget. Dont forget to remove the battery and SIM card before you dry it. What to do if your TV remote control stops workingIf replacing the batteries doesnt work, get the camera function up on your phone and point the remote at the lens (镜头). When you press a button on the remote, if it is working, the glass bobble (小球) at the front of the remote will light up when you look at it on the screen of your phone. This is because the screen on a phone or digital camera picks up infrared rays (红外线), even though your eyes dont. If the glass bobble doesnt light up, the remote is broken. If it does, the receiving device (装置) is broken.25. If your cell phone falls into a sink, you can _.A. warm it up under your armB. remove the battery after you dry itC. put it into the uncooked riceD. press it with both of your hands26. Why can a phone be used to prove the TV remote control works well? Because it can _.A. improve the TV remote controlB. receive infrared rayC. picture the TV remote controlD. reflect infrared ray27. In which section of a newspaper can we possibly read this text?A. LifeB. EntertainmentC. FinanceD. Culture28. The purpose of this passage is to give people _.A. personal opinionsB. professional guidesC. necessary warningsD. practical tipsCIt is amazing to note that the Internet is still such a new device, and yet it is one of the fastest and most powerful media tools. But think about it for a moment. On the Internet, a big online company can be run by two guys out of their garage. So it is only reasonable that people shopping on the Net would be a little leery of the security levels.Internet giants such as Microsoft knew consumer confidence was the key to getting virtual(虚拟) shopping off the ground, and they work hard to make people feel safe to shop online.Credit card companies, too, quickly saw the potential for Internet shopping, and have installed things like online shopping insurance for people. If you ever have a problem with your online credit purchases, many credit card companies will happily refund(返还) your money and then set their claws on the company that wronged you. Now thats buying power!There are other bonuses for online shoppers, of course. No line-ups, for one. No annoying mall shopping carts with broken wheels and kids crying because their parents wont get them what they want. When shopping online, consumers can sit down, have a coffee, and wear their slippers, not have to worry about their hair or parking and just click through sale after sale. Comparison shopping couldnt be any easier. And thanks to courier companies(速递公司) getting in on the act, you never need wait longer than a day or two to get those all important purchases delivered right to your door. No wonder so many companies are shaking their heads at traditional advertising and instead looking to the “virtual” world to attract online shoppers.29. The underlined word “leery” means .A. satisfiedB. distrustful C. hopefulD. sad30. leads to consumers trust in online shopping.A. Shopping law B. Shopping convenienceC. Internet accessD. Shopping security31. Which group of words would the writer use to describe current Internet shopping?A. Adventurous, enjoyable, fast, unreal.B. Unsafe, cheap, slow, convenient.C. Reliable, popular, convenient, slow.D. Safe, convenient, fast, comfortable.32. The following are thought to have made contributions to the popularity of online shopping EXCEPT_. A. internet companiesB. courier companiesC. advertising companiesD. credit card companiesDNo one gets through life without experiencing many disappointments. Strangely, though, most people seem unprepared for disappointment and react to it in negative ways. They feel depressed or try to escape from their troubles instead of using disappointment as an opportunity for growth.One negative reaction to disappointment is depression. A woman trying to win a promotion, for example, works hard for over a year in her department. Helen is so sure she will get the promotion. However, the boss names one of Helens co-workers for the spot. Deeply depressed, Helen loses her enthusiasm for her job and can barely force herself to show up every day. Helen tells herself that she is a failure and that doing a good job just isnt worth the work.Another negative reaction to disappointment is the desire to escape. Kevin fails to get into the college his brother is attending, the college that was the focus of all his dreams, and decides to escape his disappointment. Why worry about college at all? Instead, he covers up his real feelings by giving up on his school-work and getting completely involved with friends, parties, and “good times”.The positive way to react to disappointment is to use it as a chance for growth. This isnt easy, but its the only useful way to deal with an inevitable part of life. Helen, the woman who was not promoted, could have handled her disappointment by looking at otheroptions. If her boss did not recognize her talent and hard work, perhaps she could transfer to another department. Or she could ask the boss how to improve her performance so that she could prepare for the next promotion. Kevin, the boy who didnt get into the college of his choice, should look into other schools. Going to another college may encourage him to be his own person, step out of his brothers shadow, and realize that being turned down by one college isnt a final judgment on his abilities or potential.Disappointments are unwelcome, but regular visitors to everyones life. We can feel depressed about them or we can try to escape from them. The best thing, though, is to accept a disappointment and then try to use it somehow: Step over the unwelcome visitor on the doorstep and get on with life.33. From the context, the word “option” (Para.4) means _.A. way B. choice C. place D. job34. In the authors opinion, Helen should _ instead of feeling depressed.A. work even harder to get better than her promoted co-worker.B. stand the pressure and competition.C. win a good opinion from the boss by seeking his advice.D. move into another department to have her talent and hard work appreciated.来源:Z_x35. Which of the following best expresses the main idea of this selection?A. Disappointment is an inevitable part of life and we have to handle it in a positive way.B. Life is made up of a series of disappointments. We have to accept them.C. There are two kinds of reactions to disappointment.D. Most people react to disappointment in negative ways.第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。People often say you never get a second chance to make a first impression, and thats actually quite true. 36 .
