( A )

A widow’s wish to hear her late husband’s voice again has pushed London’s subway system to restore a 40-year-old recording of the subway’s famous “Mind the gap” announcement.

The Underground,or the tube,first opened in 1863,tracked down the voice recording by Oswald Lawrence after his widow,Margaret McCollum,told them what it meant to her.

McCollum,65,said she used to frequently visit Embankmenl tube station or plan her journeys around the stop to listen to Lawrence’s voice,even before his death.She was taken aback in November when she noticed it had been replaced by a different voice.

“Lawrence was a drama school graduate when he auditioned(试音)for the tube recording.He went on to become a theater actor and then worked for a tour company.For six years after his death,I’d stay on the platform—just sit and listen to it again,”she added.

When Margaret approached the tube,she was told it had a new broadcast system and it couldn’t use the old recording anymore.

Nigel Holness,director of London Underground,said its staff has been so moved by McCollum’s story that they dug up the recording and gave the widow a copy of the announcement on a CD for her to keep.“ Tube staff is also working to restore Lawrence’s announcement at the station,” he added.“It is celebrating its 150th anniversary this year.The tube’s Mind the gap

messages,voiced by various actors,have accompanied countless London commuter journeys since the 1960s.Train drivers and staff made the warnings themselves before that.”

“I’m very pleased that people are interested in Oswald’s old recording,”Margaret said.“He was a great London transport user all his life.He would be amused,touched and delighted to know he’s back where he belonged.”

21.The best title for the passage is .

A.Mind Your Step B.Mind Your Gap

C.A Widow’s Wish D.The Tube’s Struggle

22.The underlined phrase “taken aback” means .

a.Oswald died. b.Margaret approached the tube.

c.Oswald auditioned for the tube recording. d.Oswald graduated from a drama school. e.Oswald’s recording was replaced.

A.d-c-a-e-b B.d-c-b-e-a C.c-d-a-b-e D.e-d-a-b-c

24.What can we infer from the passage?( )

B.Oswald’s voice is a great comfort to Margaret.

C.No recording can be equal to Oswald’s voice.

( B )

In the past,teachers were limited to what they could do when it came to how they could present lesson plans and information to their pupils.Commonly they would stand in front of a podium and lecture to students about the lesson of the day.Sometimes a teacher might write something on the board,maybe even have students read out loud from a book,yet that would be it.Basically in the past,there was not much interaction(交流) going on between the teacher and the students.

Now,teachers have all sorts of choices when it comes to how they can teach their students and it could not have come any sooner.One is actually a whiteboard that is interactive.So not only can teachers display things for their students to see in colour,but teachers can also change up what is being displayed on the screen through the use of a wireless device that is typically in the shape of a pen or laser pointer.To change what is being displayed on the screen,all the teacher has to do is point at the screen using the device and just like that,things are moving.No longer are lesson plans stagnant,but they come to life right before the students’ eyes.

Another is a touch pad screen where teachers can actually walk around the room to teach their students.The screens themselves are similar to other name brand touch screens that are almost like small computers.They are extremely handy and perfect for situations where the teacher likes to get up and get going.Along with that,SmartEd Services is a portable audio device that allows teachers to amplify (扩大)what is being said to students.If you want to know more,an easy way to check into all the options that are out there is to simply do some searching online.

25.There used not to be much communication in class probably because .

A.the teachers had limited knowledge

B.the students liked reading aloud

C.teaching technology was backward

D.teaching materials were too difficult

26.The underlined word “stagnant” in Paragraph 2 probably means .

C.fluent D.necessary

27.SmartEd Services is a kind of device that .

A.follows the teacher in the classroom B.makes the teacher’s voice louder

C.helps the students understand better D.makes the class more interesting

28.According to the author .

A.technology can make class practical and interesting

B.the traditional teaching methods should be given up

C.the teachers should get on well with their students

D.modern science and technology bring us a happy life

( C )

From the 007 series to Iron Man,cool gadgets(装备)like smart watches and high-tech glasses impress audiences.Now the real world is welcoming them.The world of wearable technology is quietly growing,and it’s planning to take over.Let’s look at some of the gadgets to look out for.

Headwear

Reading on a bus or while you’re running often makes you dizzy(眩晕的).But with a small wearable device called Run-n-Read,you won’t feel dizzy any more.You can wear it on your headband or your T-shirt.It tracks(追踪) your head movements and then moves the text on the screen of your iPad or other reading device at the same time as your eyes.Though a person standing nearby can see the text jumping up and down,for you the text looks perfectly still.Your head moves,but the words do not.

Bracelets

Wearing a sensory bracelet (手镯) can help you find out where you’ve run,how many calories you’ve burned,how deep your sleep was,and many more things.

A few companies have already been producing great fitness tracking devices for some time.But it seems that FitBit will get the most attention in 2015 with its new bracelets,the FitBit Surge.

The Surge has an LED touch display screen.This allows you to control your smartphone and see who is calling or messaging you.It also has eight different sensors(感应元件) and can record many different sporting activities.

Shoes

If you’ve ever got tired of looking at your smartphone frequently for directions when visiting a place,you might want to try Lechal smart shoes.The shoes work by using Bluetooth to connect to a phone App.After you’ve entered the destination you want to go to on your phone,the shoes direct you by vibrating(振动)either the left or right foot to tell you which way you should turn.

29.From the text we know that the high-tech gadgets .

understand→understood 此处understand与宾语myself之间为动宾关系,故用过去分词

understood作补语。

第七句中:or→and 前后为并列关系,但无选择之意,故用and。

第八句中:speak→spoke 由后面的时间状语that day和上文内容可知应用一般过去时spoke。 去掉a progress进步,为不可数名词。

第二节 书面表达

One possible version:

The phenomenon that people are always phubbing is becoming more and more popular. Some people only stare at the screens of their phones, ignoring the people around them no matter when they take a bus, hold a party or even get together with their families. Worse still, they will not miss the chance of surfing the Internet or playing the games when they cross the road, which is likely to cause serious accidents and threaten their lives.

It is high time that we threw away the phone and raised our heads up. Do cherish the ones around us and appreciate the splendid scenery ahead of us.
