9、 sat down to read beneath the branches of an old tree, with good reason to frown, for the world was intended to drag me down. At this time, a boy approached me. He stood right before me, and said with great excitement, Look what I found!In his hand was a flower, and what a pitiful sight, with its pe
10、tals(花瓣)all worn. Wanting him to take his flower and go off to play, I faked a small smile and then turned to the other side.But instead of leaving, he sat next to my side and placed the flower to his nose and declared, “ It really smells pretty and its beautiful, too. Thats why I picked it. Here, i
11、ts for you.”The flower before me was dying or dead. But I knew I must take it, or he might never leave .So I reached for the flower, and replied, Just what I need .But instead of placing the flower in my hand, he held it in mid-air. It was then that I noticed that the boy was blind. I heard my voice
12、 quiver(轻微颤抖) and at the same time my tears shone like the sun. As I thanked him for picking the very best one, he smiled and said, “youre welcome.” And then he ran off to play, unaware of the impact hed had on me.I sat there and wondered how he managed to see a self-pitying woman beneath an old tre
13、e. Perhaps from his heart, hed been blessed with true sight.Through the eyes of the blind boy, I could see the problem was not with the world; the problem was me. And for all of those times I had been blind. From now on I vowed to see beauty and appreciate every second thats mine. Then I held the fl
14、ower up to my nose and breathed its fragrance and smiled as that young boy. 21.

16、timistic. B. Independent and active.C. Handsome and intelligent. D. Warmhearted and sensitive.BA hybrid electric vehicle (混合动力车) or HEV is a vehicle driven by the combination of petrol engine and electric motor. Terrence has been driving a HEV for five years. He really doesnt understand why more peo
17、ple arent accepting them. “I probably spend about $ 7 a day on petrol,” the taxi driver told news. com. au. In his previous conventional vehicle Terrence said he was spending up to $ 30 a day on petrol, meaning he saves almost $ 6000 every year.The Toyota spokesman said this was quite a high saving
18、and official tests estimate (估计) an average driver would only save about 33 percent off their current bill. This means a driver paying $ 30 a day on petrol would see their bill drop to about $ 20 using the hybrid. “A taxi driver that drives in built-up areas and spends little time on highways will n
19、otice a higher fuel saving,” he said. “Low speeds allow the electric motors to be used more and the petrol engine used less.”While some people are skeptical about how reliable hybrids are, Terrence said he had never run out of power. His Camry cost about $ 34,000 and so after five years, its nearly
20、paid for itself. “For cab drivers, its a real advantage because of the cost-effectiveness,” he said. Terrence has no complaints about the car. “I love it, the calm and quietness of it, the simplicity of ityou just jump in and go. The maintenance（保养）is really low. But the only difficulty is finding s
21、omeone to service the car as there are not many experienced mechanics（机修工）.”Terrence said its “extraordinary” that more drivers arent buying more hybrid electric vehicles and that governments are not encouraging this more. “I think people have a view that you have to plug it in, which is not true. A
22、 lack of information about the cars may be stopping people from taking the plunge. Its not promoted at all for the public to understandits simplifying the actual owning of a caryou dont have to do so many things to own it and run it, its just so much simpler. Why wouldnt the government promote such
23、a thing?”24. How much does an average driver save each day by driving a hybrid, according to the Toyota spokesman? A. $30. B. $20. C. $10. D. $7.25. When saying “extraordinary”, Terrence thinks it is _ A. understandable B. wonderful C. doubtful D. unbelievable 26. What does Terrence think prevent th
24、e popularity of hybrid cars? A. The difficulty in servicing the car. B. The restriction of the government. C. The lack of information about HEV. D. The inconvenience with charging the car. CFacial RecallLarge gatherings such as weddings and conferences can be socially overwhelming. Pressure to learn
25、 peoples names only adds to the stress. A new facial-recognition app could come to the rescue-but privacy experts recommend proceeding with caution.The app, called SocialRecall, connects names with faces via smartphone cameras and facial recognition, potentially eliminating the need for formal intro
26、ductions. “It breaks down these social barriers we all have in terms of initiating the protocol to meet somebody,” says Barry Sandrew, whose start-up, also called SocialRecall, created the app and tested it at an event attended by about 1,000 people. After receiving an invitation to download SocialR
27、ecall from an event organizer, a prospective user is asked to take two selfies and sign in via social media. At the event the app is active within a previously defined geographical area. When a user points his or her phone camera at an attendees face, the app identifies the individual, displays the
28、persons name, and links to his or her social media profile. To protect privacy, it recognizes only those who have consented to participate. And the apps creators say it automatically wipes users data after an event. Ann Cavoukian, a privacy expert who runs the Privacy by Design Center of Excellence
29、at Ryerson University in Toronto, commends the apps creators for these protective measures. She cautions, however, that when people choose to share their personal information with the app, they should know that “there may be unintended consequences down the road with that information being used in a
30、nother context that might come back to bite you.”The start-up has also developed a version of the app for individuals who suffer from prosopagnosia, or “face blindness,” a condition that prevents people from recognizing individuals they have met. (Sandrew, who has prosopagnosia himself, notes that t
31、he app has not yet been tested on others with the condition.) To use this app, a person first acquires an image of someones face, from either the smartphones camera or a photograph, and then tags it with a name. When the camera spots that same face in real life, the previously entered information is
32、 displayed. The collected data are stored only on a users phone, according to the team behind the app. Jason Schultz, a professor of clinical law at New York University, who was not involved with the apps creation, remains cautious: “The cost to everyone whom you are surveilling with this app is ver
33、y, very high, and I dont think it respects the consent politics involved with capturing peoples images.”27. Why do lots of privacy experts not advocate the facial-recognition app?A. Because it is only active within a defined area.B. Because the technology behind is still not mature.C. Because the ap
34、p has not been tested on a large scale.D. Because users personal information might be misused.28. Paragraph 3 is mainly about _.A. how the app works B. how the app was createdC. what makes the app popular D. what people can do with the app29. SocialRecall helps people with prosopagnosia by _.A. givi
35、ng names to the photos kept in their smartphonesB. collecting information previously entered in the phoneC. providing the information of a person when they first meetD. showing the persons information when it spots a stored face30. What can we learn about SocialRecall from the passage?A. It may put
36、peoples privacy at risk. B. It has caused unintended consequences.C. It can prevent some communication disorders.D. It is praised by users for its protective measures.第二节 七选五(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。You may have grown up living with lots of siblings, or this may
