However, whenever I used to tell people I dont like peanut butter, theyd get all defensive like “Peanut butter is amazing! How do you not like it?!”, and then Id have to go into this whole thing to defend my taste buds. But then I got tired of it and started telling people that Im just allergic to peanuts because that way its not my fault that I hate the smell of peanut butter. Now I seem like a sad little baby who can never taste peanut butter ever in her life and everyone feels sad for me. But the problem is that I really have an appetite for peanut m&ms (巧克力豆) but now I can only eat peanut m&ms when Im at home alone. The only person who knows my lie is my husband. 1 remember one evening we had a small celebration for one of our friends and they had peanut m&ms. I really wanted some but obviously couldnt eat them in public because people would know my peanut secret.When we got home after work, my husband tipped his jacket over and emptied his pockets. Peanut m&ms fell out of his pockets and he whispered, “I was sneakily accumulating them all night for you because I could see the pain in your eyes.” If that isnt love, and then I dont know what is.24.

The passage is intended to_.A. show the husbands deep loveB. share an unforgettable experienceC. tell how to fight against ones allergyD. express dissatisfaction with people around CAccording to a recent article in The Wall Street Journal, we might all be braggarts(大话王) in this petitive society addicted to social networking. Take a close look at your social-networking sites. Do you like to post photos of yourself in restaurants to show others what an exciting life you have? Or do you like to write about how happily you are in love? Or perhaps you are of the subtle type who constantly plain about jobs but really just want to impress others with your important position. According to the results of a series of experiments conducted by Harvard University neuroscientists(神经科学家), the reward areas of our brain-the same areas that respond to “primary rewards” such as food -are activated when we talk about ourselves. We devote between 30 to 40 percent of our conversation time to doing just that. Unfortunately, Bernstein says, some people cant tell the difference between sharing positive information that others might actually want to know and direct bragging. She suggests that bragging involves parison, whether stated or implied. “We are expected to be perfect all the time. The result is that more and more people are carefully managing their online images”. says Elizabeth Bernstein, a columnist(专栏作家) with the Wall Street Journal. But the issue is not limited to the Internet. In a fiercely petitive job market we must sell ourselves on multiple platforms and show that we are better than others. In fact, we have bee so accustomed to bragging that we dont even realize we are doing it, says Bernstein. This is harmful to our relationships and puts people off. Bernstein talked to some experts who said that people brag for all sorts of reasons: to appear worthy of attention; to prove to ourselves we are doing fine and that people who said we would fail are wrong; or simply because were excited when good things happen to us. “Feel sorry for them, because theyre doing this unconscious, destructive thing that wont help them in the long run,” said Professor Simian Valier, a research psychologist at Washington University.28. The underlined word “subtle” in Para.2 is closest in meaning to “_”.A. apparent B. hidden C. outstanding D. simple29.Which of the following is one of the features of braggarts? A. They know well how to share positive information. B. They dont pay much attention to their online image. C. Theyself-promotetostandoutintheircareer. D. They control conversation and only talk about themselves.30. What can we infer from the passage? A. People who like bragging know what they are doing. B. What braggarts do is eventually harmful to themselves. C. They care much about the feelings of others when talking. D. Braggarts always adopt parison directly to show they are excellent.31. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Are you a braggart? B. Is bragging an art? C. Why do we keep bragging? D. How to deal with a braggart?D Imagine youre standing in line to buy an after-school snack at a store. You step up to the counter and the cashier scans your food. Next, you have to pay. But instead of scanning a QR code (二维码) with your smartphone, you just hold out your hand so the cashier can scan your fingerprint. Or, a camera scans your face, your eyes or even your ear. Now, this type of technology might not be far away. As technology panies move away from the traditional password, biometric security (生物识别技术), which includes fingerprint, face and voice ID, is being increasingly popular. In xx, Apple introduced the iPhone 5s, one of the first smartphones with a fingerprint scanner. Since then, using ones fingerprint to unlock a phone and make mobile payments has bee monplace, bringing convenience to our lives. And since last year, Samsung has featured eye-scanning technology in its top smartphones, while Apples new iPhone X can even scan a users face. But despite its popularity, experts warn that biometrics might not be as secure as wed imagined. “Biometrics, ideally, are good,” John Michener, a biometrics expert, told tech website Inverse. “In practice, not so much.” When introducing the new iPhones Face ID feature at Apples Keynote Event in September, Phil Schiller, Apples senior vice president, said, “The chance that a random person in the population could look at your iPhone X and unlock it with their face is about one in a million.” But its already been done. In a video posted on munity website Reddit on Nov 3, two brothers showed how they were each able to unlock the same iPhone X using their own face, Quartz reported. And they arent even twins. “We may expect too much from biometrics,” Anil Jain, a puter science professor at Michigan State University, told CBS News. “No security systems are perfect.” Earlier this year, Jain found a way to trick biometric security. Using a printed copy of a thumbprint, she was able to unlock a dead persons smartphone for police, according to tech website Splinter. “Its good to see biometrics being used more,” Jain told CBS News, “because it adds another factor for security. But using multiple security measures is the best defense.”32. What is the latest technology to unlock a smartphone according to the article?A. QR code scanning. B. Eye scanning.C. Fingerprint scanning. D. Face scanning.33. Whats a major problem of the iPhone Xs Face ID system?A. It often fails to recognize its owners face.B. Different faces could be used to unlock the same phone.C. Face data could be used for other purposes.D. It takes too long to unlock the phone.34. What does Anil Jain think of biometric security?A. It still needs much improvement.B. It has caused much trouble for police.C. Its more secure than traditional measures.D. It should be used with other security measures.35. The author wrote this article mainly to _.A. describe the popularity of biometricsB. show how biometrics has changed our livesC. discuss the security problems of biometricsD. point out various problems with biometrics第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) How to Survive Dorm Life Living on campus is just a challenge students must face.
