There was a line at the fish counter, but only one staff person was there to take care of the customers. Some customers ordered quite an amount of fish for that staff person to work on. At last I was the second in line: all I wanted was a couple of crabs and should get out of there in no time.Noticing it was very busy at the fish counter, another staff person came over to help. I was ready to be served, but the staff person went to the end of the line and began to help a couple of ladies with snail (蜗牛). The customers in front of me, being served, turned around and looked at me sympathetically and the customer behind me called to the staff person, “You should starthere,” pointing at me. He was, well, ignored.If someone asked me, “What is the most important rule to follow in America?” I would reply without hesitation. “Wait your turn at all times.” Wherever you go here in this country, you will find people waiting in a line quietly to get anything: whether in the supermarkets, department stores, bus stops, or gas stations, it’s just a matter of waiting your turn. In a larger sense, “wait your turn” is more than just a guideline — it is a very basic rule that reflects the fundamental value of the western cultures. But in some situations your turn does not always come based on when you get there and how long you have waited in line, just like my case at the store. Even though this did not often happen, it did make me feel upset.24.What happened to the author at the store?A.He wasn’t served upon his order.B.He was ill-treated by a customer.C.He was asked to be served later.D.He was asked to do others a favor.25.What is the author’s opinion about Queuing Rule?A.

His culture.C. His experience.D. His rule.27.Why did the author write the text?A.To emphasize his kindness to others.B.To express his belief and his feelings.C.To show his disbelief in Queuing Rule.D.To introduce some western culture to us.CBats are the only mammals that can fly a great distance, but they have another ability. Many bats live a very long time for an animal of their size. European researchers are studying bats to understand why they live so long. They hope to make discoveries aimed at fighting the aging process in human beings.Last week, the group of scientists said they had discovered important biological qualities in some bat species. The group studied bat chromosomes(染色体). The scientists were most interested in structures connected to the ends of the chromosomes. They are called telomeres(端粒)，which shorten each time a cell divides. Scientists believe this shortening process causes cells to break down. They say this is what causes aging.The European researchers studied 493 bats from four bat species. The group used information that had been gathered over more than 60 years. Of these animals, the greater mouse-eared bat generally lived an average of 37 years. The scientists said it had telomeres that did not shorten with age. Another Myotis bat holds the record for oldest age, reaching 41 years. The scientists’ findings suggest that these bats’ cells have the ability to maintain and repair their telomeres. This, they said, helps guard against the aging process.Based on its body size, a bat like the greater mouse-eared bat would be expected to live four years. But, these mammals have been found to live nearly 10 times longer than that. The scientists found that only 19 species of mammals live longer than humans when their body size is considered. Eighteen of these are bats. The only exception is an unusual African rat.28. What decides bats’ aging process according to the text? .A. The body size of the batB. The type of chromosomesC. The building of cellD. The length of telomeres29. How long does a greater mouse-eared bat generally live?A. 19 years.B. 41 years.C. 37 years.D. 60 years.30. We can learn from the text that _________ .A. nineteen kinds of bats could live longer than humansB. the scientists have studied bats for more than six decadesC. the bats studied in the research are of the same speciesD. researchers focus on finding out why humans live long31. In which column of a magazine can you read the text?A. ScienceB. LifestyleC. FashionD. BusinessDTeens do n’t understand the big fuss (小题大做). As the first generation to grow up in a wired world they hardly know a time when computers weren’t around, and they eagerly catch the chance to spend hours online, chatting with friends, so what?But researchers nationwide are increasingly worried that teens are becoming isolated, less skillful at person-to-person relationships, and perhaps numb to the cheatings that are so much a part of the e-mail world. “And a teen’s sense of self and values may be changed in a world w here personal connections can be limitless,” said Shetty Turkle.Another researcher, Robert Kraut, said he’s worried about the “opportunity costs” of so much online time for youths. He found that teens who used computers, even just a few hours a week, show ed increased signs of loneliness and social isolation. “Chatting online may be better than watching television, but it’s worse than hanging out with real friends,” he said.Today’s teens, however, don’t see anything strange in the fact that the computer ta kes up a central place in their social lives. “School is busy and full of pressure. There’s almost no time to just hang out,” said Parker Rice, 17 “Talking online is just to catch time.”Teens say they feel good about what they say online or taking the time to think about a reply. Some teens admit that asking someone for a date, or breaking up, can be easier in message form, though they don’t want to do so. But they insist there’s no harm.32．The researchers argue that .A．teens develop a different sense of valuesB．nothing is wrong with teens’ chatting onlineC．teens can manage their social connectionsD．spending hours online does much good to teens33．Teens think that talking online can help them .A．use computers properly B．improve their school workC．develop an interest in social skills D．reduce their mental pressures 34．The text mainly deals with .A．teens’ pleasant online experienceB．teens’ computer skills and school workC．the effects of the computer world on teensD．different opinions on teens’ chatting online35．Which of the following is TRUE?A．Teens are more skillful at person-to-person relationships.B．Teens showed decreasing signs of loneliness and social isolation.C．Chatting online is worse than hanging out with real friends.D．Asking someone for a date, or breaking can be more difficult in message form.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。
