A“I would say, no matter what people tell you, anything can happen.” That’s the message Internet singer Austin Mahone says at We Day, an event for young people in Canada.When he was 14，Austin and a friend began uploading pop songs to musical websites.“I was just doing it becaus e we had nothing to do, living in a small town.”“I’d check different websites for the hottest songs, and I’d record my own videos,” he explains. “That’s how people began to find me online.”His videos got millions of hits and he signed with a record c ompany. The result was the release of Austin’s first album, Junior Year. While it seems like a sudden rise for the teenager, Austin admits the early days were not always fun. He says a lot of people thought badly of him for posting his videos online. Yet this didn’t put him off.“I kept working hard. ”And the hits on his videos kept coming.Austin’s achievement and spirit make him a perfect fit for the message of We Day. After all, Free the Children, the creator of the event, was founded to “enable yout h to make changes.” Even Austin’s unusual rise by way of the Internet fits with the way Free The children works and raises money.Because of Austin, his four million followers will learn about Free the Children. While Austin’s presence certainly helps We Day, it’s good for him, too. Austin gets to show himself as someone who volunteers his time and talent for a worthy cause and show that he cares about making the world a better place.21.Why did Austin put pop songs on musical websites?A.

If you are, have you already started preparing for your trip? Online, there are a large number of preparation tips available for summer travelers. While preparation advice and tips may be of assistance to you, they are often hard to go by. This is because not everyone spends vacations at the same location.No matter what your vacation destination is, you will need to take the climate into consideration. If you are visiting a tropical location, you will need to bring along the appropriate clothing. While you may be expecting warm and sunny weather, it is still advised that you prepare for the worst. Raincoats and an umbrella may be a great addition to your summer clothing.Perhaps, the most popular summer vacation destination is the beach. Each year millions of individuals and families flock to beaches. When vacationing at the beach, it is important that you bring along proper clothing and sunscreen. Many vacationers do not realize the dangers of sunbathing without sunscreen. In addition to sunscreen, you will need to make sure that you have beach towels and plenty of water on hand.For the most part, if you forget to bring along certain supplies you can purchase replacements. Many popular vacation destinations have inflated prices. To prevent unnecessary expenses, you are encouraged to check your luggage before you leave. In addition to the above mentioned preparation tips, you must inform friends and family of where you are going. In case something happens back home, you can easily be reached.24.

A global survey has found that most people can't live without their mobiles, never leave home without them and, if given a choice, would rather lose their wallet.Calling mobile phones the "remote control" for life, market research firm Synovate's poll said cell phones are so ubiquitous that by last year more humans owned one than did not.Three-quarters of the more than 8,000 respondents polled online in 11 countries said they take their phone with them everywhere, with Russians and Singaporeans the most attached.More than a third also said they couldn't live without their phone, topped by Taiwanese and again Singaporeans, while one in four would find it harder to replace the mobile than their purse.Some two-thirds of respondents go to bed with their phones nearby and can't switch them off, even though they want to, because they're afraid they'll miss something."Mobiles give us safety, security and instant acces s to information. They are the number one tool of communication for us, sometimes even surpassing face-to-face communication. They are our connections to our lives," Jenny Chang, Synovate's managing director in Taiwan, said in a statement.Mobiles have also changed the nature of relationships, with the survey finding nearly half of all respondents use text messages to flirt, a fifth set up first-dates via text and almost the same number use the same method to end a love affair.Apart from the obvious calling and texting, the top three features people use regularly on their mobile phones globally are the alarm clock, the camera and the games.As for email and Internet access, 17 percent of respondents said they checked their inboxes or surfed the Web on their phones, led by those in the United States and Britain. One in 10 respondents log onto social networking websites such as Facebook and MySpace regularly via mobile, again led by Britain and the United States."As the mobile becomes more and more an all-in-one device, many other businesses are facing challenging times. The opportunities for mobile manufacturers and networks however are enormous," said Synovate's global head of media, Steve Garton.Not everyone is tech savvy, however: 37 percent of respondents said they don't know how to use all the functions on their phone.28.According to the passage, the top two regular functions of mobile phones may be .A. camera and gameB. calling and textingC. email and callingD. surfing and texting29. According to Jenny Chang, why is cell phone important for people?A. There are many functions on their phones.B. About half of all respondents end a love affair via text.C. Mobiles make people feel safe, secure and help them to get information.D. Mobiles used as the tool of communication is not popular with people.30.What can be inferred from paragraph 1?A. Cell phone plays an important part in body.B. As for most of people, wallet is less important than cell phone.C. More humans would rather own their wallet than cell phones.D. Poll considered mobile phones as the “remote control” for life.31.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 2 mean?A. rareB. specialC. interestingD. commonDSquare dancing is a form of entertainment and physical exercise, which is a good thing. However, a group of senior Chinese ladies dancing in New York’s Sunset Park were recently faced with noise complaints from nearby residents. The local court even served a summons (传票) related to a certain Ms. Wang.The news soon caused heated discussion across China, with many believing the incident to involve a cultural conflict between the East and West,while others view it as a form of discrimination against Chinese in the United States.The United States is a diverse society, and in many cases, Chinese dancers are tolerated and even appreciated. Meanwhile, the United States is a society based on the rule of law, and due to cultural differences, local regulations seem to be very different from those in China. As a result, some old Chinese ladies dancing in New York’s Sunset Park found themselves caught in an embarrassing situation. Locals and immigrants from other nations view such noise as a violation of their right to enjoy tranquility. Calling the police is regarded as the most efficient way to solve such a problem.Before, these ladies probably did not understand local customs and r ules. However, since the incident took place, they should perhaps know a little better next time and keep the noise to a minimum. People from different nations are often supposed to reach compromises, respecting and tolerating each other.Whatever your choice of entertainment, it is important not to affect other people’s lives. Square dancing is only one of many activities during which people should mind theirbehavior.As for U.S. police practice, there might still be some room for improvement. Some were said to be rather rude, leading to the so-called “racial discrimination,” which is a sensitive topic in U.S. society.If the involved parties could be more tolerant, and solve such problems without involving the court, perhaps immigrants would mix more.32.The writer mentions the incident in Paragraph 1 to __________.A. show his opinionB. make complaintsC. bring up the topicD. criticize the local police33.The underlined word “tranquility” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by ________.A. entertainmentB. quietnessC. freedomD. quality34.What will the senior Chinese ladies most probably do after the incident?A. Go back to China.B. Fight for their right.C. Ask America to change its law.D. Keep the noise lower.35.What’s the writer’s attitude towards senior Chinese ladies dancing in New York’s Sunset Park?A. He thinks all parties involved should be more tolerant.B. He strongly supports the action of the local police.C. He considers it a shame for senior Chinese ladies to do so.D. He suggests such kind of problem should be solved in the court.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。
