High school was hard, because everyone wanted to have nice clothes, hang out, drive cars, and all these cost money. Peter’s father was the sort of guy that believed you had to earn whatever you got, so he wasn’t just about to hand over lots of money for Peter to use to have fun. So, he had to get a job.During his freshman year summer vacation, his classmate got him a job working on a hay (干草) farm. He threw hay up into wagons as the tractor drove around fields, and then they stacked (剁起) it in the hot barn. It was a hot, low-paying job.He once worked a few nights a week at a grocery store. He put things on the shelf. It was a lot of lifting and carrying, and his arms were strong from this and the previous job. It was dull and didn’t pay much.He took some time off when soccer got serious, but the following summer he tried working at a lumber yard. It was hot outside, but he got a lot of exercise lifting and carrying things like boards and drywall. He also learned a lot about building supplies. It still didn’t pay well.From there, he spent a year doing some tutoring for a friend of the family, but that was piecemeal.His first real job came the last year at school, when he fixed registers and worked on computers at a big box store. It was his favorite job yet, but it still didn’t pay well.What Peter realized with all of these jobs was that he needed a better paying job! The only way to get that was to get trained or educated. He could go to school and get a 2-year degree in an office or technical position. His other choices were going to a 4-year college or joining the army. He wasn’t sure what he was going to do yet, but he knew he had to do something. Jobs were a lot of work, money was hard to earn, but he liked staying busy and being able to buy things. Peter wanted the most out of life, and that meant education.31．How many jobs had Peter taken?A．Three. B．Four.C．Five. D．Six.32．All the jobs Peter had taken had one thing in common：________.A．They didn’t pay wellB．They were dull and tiresomeC．They needed hard labourD．They were done during his vacation33．________was the most important for Peter if he wanted a good job.A．Confidence B．EducationC．Opportunity D．Wisdom34．We can learn from the text that________.A．Peter knew what to do with his futureB．Peter’s father didn’t care about himC．it was very hard for Peter to make his choicesD．Peter was determined to do whatever he likedB(2014·江苏五市联考)Anyone watching the autumn sky knows that migrating birds fly in a V formation, but scientists have long debated why. A new study finds that these big-winged birds carefully position their wingtips and flap (拍动) at the same rate, probably to catch the upward movement of air and save energy during flight.There are two reasons birds might fly in a V formation: It may make flight easier, or they’re simply following the leader. Squadrons (中队) of planes can save fuel by flying in a V formation, and many scientists suspect that migrating birds do the same. Models that treated flapping birds like fixed-wing airplanes show that they probably save energy by drafting off each other, but currents created by airplanes are far more stable than those coming off of birds.Just as aerodynamic (气动力) calculations would predict, the birds positioned themselves to fly just behind and to the side of the bird in front, timing their wing flaps to catch the uplifting eddies (涡流). When a bird flew directly behind another, the timing of the flapping reversed (相反) so that it could minimize the effects of the downdraft coming off the back of the bird’s body.“We didn’t think this was possible，” Usherwood says, considering that the difficult achievement requires careful flight and incredible awareness of one’s neighbors. “Perhaps these big V formation birds can be thought of quite like an airplane with wings that go up and down.”The findings likely apply to other long-winged birds, such as pelicans and geese, Usherwood says. Smaller birds create more complex wakes (尾波) that would make drafting too difficult.The researchers did not attempt to calculate the birds’energy savings because the necessaryphysiological measurements would be too invasive for an endangered species. Previous studies show that birds can use 20% to 30% less energy while flying in a V.Scientists do not know how the birds find that aerodynamic sweet spot, but they suspect that the animals line themselves up either by sight or by sensing air currents through their feathers. In future studies, the researchers will switch to more common birds, such as pigeons or geese. They plan to investigate how the animals decide who sets the course and the pace, and whether a mistake made by the leader can ripple through the rest of the flock to cause traffic jams. 35．The author takes squadrons of planes for example to show ________.A．birds may save energy by flying in a V formationB．birds fly in a V formation for many more reasonsC．planes flying in a V formation follow the leaderD．planes flying in a V formation are more economical36．Why did Usherwood think it impossible for a bird to fly directly behind another? A．Because birds differ from airplanes in wings.B．Because birds know nothing about aerodynamics.C．Because birds could hardly create stable currents as planes.D．Because birds have to overcome great difficulties when flying.37．What is the scientists’attitude toward the findings mentioned in the passage? A．Cautious. B．Contradictory.C．Confident. D．Critical.38．What would the researchers do in their future studies about the birds?A．Calculate the birds’energy savings.B．Apply the findings to smallest birds.C．Find how the birds line themselves up.D．Do research on more common birds.C(2014·鄂西质量检测)With 10,600 bicycles in circulation, Paris city officials are hoping the program will provide people with more environmentally friendly transportation.It seems both Parisians and tourists are taking advantage of the program. Since itslaunch a little over two weeks ago, Vélib′ has already seen almost half a million rentals.And, with the addition of 10,000 more bikes and 700 more stations in the next 12 months, city officials expect at least 200,000 regular users by year end.Parisian Olivier Bioret has already gone for a spin on one of Vélib′s vehicles and plansto make use of them more often.“It’s a real pleasure — when, like me, you don’t have space enough in your flat tohave your own bike — to be able to discover, to cross Paris and not have to take the subway，” he said.As a socialist and longtime green activist, Mayor Bertrand Delanoe reg ards Vélib′ as just a part of his plan to reduce car traffic and, thus, lower pollution by 2020.Apart from its environmental benefits, Vélib′ is also being praised as a way of collecting money for the city, for all the money from rentals goes to the city government.Paris is not alone in its attempt to profit from the power of the bicycles.Across the globe, cities such as Barcelona, which stated its bike-share program in March with 1,500 vehicles and 100 stations, and New York, which launched a five-day trial program lastmonth, are using bicycles as a way to cut back on both traffic and pollution.However, it remains to be seen whether people’s acceptance of these programs is simply a passing fashion or whether this movement has the power to take root and transform the face of public transportation around the world.39．The real purpose of Vélib′ is________.A．to help people save money and spaceB．to make some money for the city governmentC．to provide convenience to both Parisians and touristsD．to reduce traffic and pollution in the city40．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．There will be 700 stations in one year’s time.B．There will be over 20,000 bikes in use in a year.C．In the first two weeks there were nearly a million rentals.D．There will be 200,000 regular rentals each day by year end.41．We can know from the passage that________.A．other cities also have such programsB．Parisians can use the bicycles for freeC．Paris sets an example to many other citiesD．Paris is the first city to start such a program42．As to the future of the program, the author is________.A．critical B．optimisticC．uncertain D．negativeD(2014·湖北八校第二次联考)A nickname is a shortened form of a person’s name. A nickname can also be a descriptive name for a person, place or thing. Many American cities have nicknames. These can help establish an identity, spread pride among citizens and build unity.

No trip to Los Angeles is complete without seeing the word “Hollywood” spelled out in huge letters on a h illside. Many movie stars live in Los Angeles. The city is sometimes called Tinseltown. This nickname comes from the shiny, bright and often unreal nature of Hollywood and the movie industry.The city of Los Angeles is part of Los Angeles County.
