　　A

　　When people find out that the product they bought is unsatisfying or in some other way does not live up to the manufacturer’s claims , the first step is to present the warranty , or any other records which might help , at the store of purchase . In most cases , this action will produce results . However , if it does not , there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction . A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager . In general , the “ higher up ” his or her complaint , the faster he or she can expect it to be settled . In such a case , it is usually settled in the consumer’s favor , assuming he or she has a just claim . Consumers should complain in person whenever possible , but if they cannot get to the place of purchase , it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter .

　　Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly , and especially when the consumer can demonstrate what is wrong with the item in question . If this cannot be done , the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong , rather than by making general statements . For example , “ The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear ” is better than “ This stereo does not work . ” The store manager may advise the consumer to write to be manufacturer . If so , the consumer should do this , stating the complaint as politely and firmly as possible . If a polite complaint does not achieve the desired result , the consumer can go to a step further . She or he can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a private or public organization responsible for protecting consumer’s rights .

　　21．When people find that their purchase is unsatisfying , the first thing they should do is to __________ .

　　A. complain personally to the manager

　　B. threaten to take the seller to court

　　C. write a firm letter of complaint to the store of purchase

　　D. show some written proof of the purchase to the store

　　22．How can a consumer make his or her complaint more effective , according to the passage ?

　　A. Make polite and general statements about the problem .

　　B. Threaten to take the seller to court .

　　C. Explain exactly what is wrong with the item .

　　D. Avoid having direct contact with the store manager .

　　23．What’s the best title of this passage ?

　　A. How to settle a consumer’s complaint

　　B. How to make an effective complaint

　　C. How to avoid buying a faulty item

　　D. How to deal with complaints

　　B

　　You may never think a documentary film could have aroused so much public enthusiasm in Chinese history. Nowadays everybody is talking about a new 7-part documentary called A Bite of China which was recently broadcast late at night on CCTV I. The documentary describes various gourmet items across the vast Chinese culinary landscape.

　　According to Taobao, China’s biggest online retail website, just five days after the series began to air, nearly 6 million people went to the site in search of various local specialties, particularly those mentioned in the documentary. More than 7.2 million deals were concluded. A ham producer from Yunnan Province saw his sales grow 17-fold in five days.

　　However, one can’t help but believe that the documentary’s popularity is probably linked to the endless stream of terrible food security issues that have emerged in recent years. In one well-received article, a netizen wrote, “I wonder how many felt so empty-hearted and sighed after watching the film. Blue-vitriol watered chive, formaldehyde sprayed cabbage, Sudan Red colored salty eggs, restaurants using gutter oil. The list is long…”

　　How will a varied and ancient food culture that is famous worldwide and which should have made the Chinese proud end? Food is the most vital thing in people’s lives. Yet China’s food industry has made people a little worried due to some severe food safety crisis. The market is huge while the cost of faking and cheating is so low for immoral businessmen; and the punishment is too light. Take the milk industry as an example. Although Sanlu, the company that sold the melamine-adulterated milk powder, was punished, thousands of other dairies didn’t work hard to improve the quality. Therefore, food safety problems should be an important concern of Chinese government so that our ancient food culture can be preserved.

　　As the documentary shows, people are attracted not to gourmet items like matsutake, a species of rare mushroom grown naturally in remote forests, but to common Chinese dishes like barley, lotus root or tofu. They are what meet our basic needs. This explains why people are so excited about A Bite of China---it is a reminder that there is still a world out there where food is excellent and safe.

　　24．The underlined word “gourmet items” probably means_______.

　　A. delicious food

　　B. latest technology

　　C. beautiful clothes

　　D. great inventions

　　25．The second paragraph mainly talks about_______.

　　A. the content of the documentary

　　B. the producer of the documentary

　　C. the popularity of the documentary

　　D. the history of Chinese gourmet

　　26．We can infer from what a netizen wrote in one well –received article that _______.

　　A. the price of food is too high for many common people

　　B. the documentary was made by a world-famous Chinese director

　　C. there is a huge contrast between the ancient food culture and the reality

　　D. none of the television viewers have a knowledge of the Chinese food culture

　　27．According to the passage, China’s food industry has a problem of faking and cheating because_______.

　　A. there are still so many poor people at the present time

　　B. the punishment for unscrupulous businessmen isn’t serious enough

　　C. the Chinese government encourages it to do so

　　D. the food technology is not so advanced as in developing countries

　　C

　　Time Travel

　　If you could travel in time, where would you go? Perhaps you would watch an original performance of a Shakespeare’s play in Elizabethan England? What about hanging out with Laozi in the Spring and Autumn Period? Or maybe you’d voyage far ahead of the present day to see what the future holds.

　　The possibility of time travel is indeed appealing. Stories exploring the subject have been around for hundreds of years. Perhaps the best known example is science fiction novel The Time Machine, which was written by H.G. Wells and published in 1895 for the first time. It was adapted into at least two feature films of the same name, as well as two television versions, and a large number of comic book adaptations. It is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposefully and selectively. The term “time machine”, coined by Wells, is now universally used to refer to a vehicle transporting people into the far future.

　　But could time travel actually be possible? Some scientists say yes, in theory. They propose using cracks in time and space called “wormholes”, which could be used as shortcuts to other periods. Einstein's theory of relativity allows time travel in extreme circumstances. And British physicist Stephen Hawking says you could travel into the future with a really fast spaceship — going at nearly the speed of light. Though building such a spaceship would of course be no simple task.

　　Even if you could travel into the past, there is something called the “grandfather paradox”. It asks what would happen if a time traveler were to go back in time and have his own grandfather killed for some reason, and therefore prevent himself from being born．If the time traveler wasn't born, how would he travel back in time？

　　And would you really like to visit the future？In H．G．Wells' book, the main character travels into distant time where he arrives at a beach and is attacked by giant crabs. He then voyages 30 million years into the future where the only living thing is a black object with tentacles(触角).If that's what's in store, maybe we are better just living in the present day after all.

　　28．The novel The Time Machine mentioned in Paragraph 2 aims to show___________．

　　A．the special feature of the book

　　B．People's interest in time travel

　　C．the long history of time travel

　　D．the contribution of H．G．Wells

　　29．Einstein's and Hawking's theories_________．

　　A．suggest the possibility to invent the time machine

　　B．have similarities in many ways

　　C．have proved wrong by some time travelers

　　D．push the invention of the first spaceship

　　30．In Paragraph 4,“grandfather paradox” probably refers to the idea that__________．

　　A．the traveler is prevented from meeting his grandfather

　　B．the traveler goes back in time to seek for his grandfather

　　C．the grandfather's death makes the traveler's birth impossible

　　D．The reunion of the traveler and his grandfather brings happiness

　　31．According to the passage, what is probably the author's attitude towards time travel？

　　A．Supportive． B．Unconcerned．

　　C．Unclear．

　　D．Skeptical．

　　D

　　Our body clock, or natural body rhythm, influences our energy and alertness. Paying attention to it can help us choose the suitable time of the day when we best perform specific tasks.

　　The reality, however, is that most of us organize the time around work demands, school deadlines, commuting or social events. Doing whatever the body feels like doing is a luxury in today’s fast-paced modern society. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t worth trying. Obeying our body clock has significant health benefits. Disrupting our natural body rhythm, on the other hand, has been linked to problems such as depression, obesity, or headache, says Steve Key, a biology professor.

　　When the body clock can synchronize (使……同步) the rhythms of its natural processes, it “gives us an advantage in daily life”, says Key.

　　According to him, when it comes to cognitive (认知的) work, most adults perform best in the late morning. As our body temperature starts to rise just before awakening in the morning and continues to increase until midday, our memory, alertness and concentration gradually improve.

　　However, he adds, our ability to concentrate typically starts to decrease soon thereafter. Most of us are more easily distracted (分心) between noon and 4 pm.

　　Alertness also tends to fall after eating a meal and sleepiness tends to peak around 2 pm, making that a good time for a nap.

　　Surprisingly, tiredness may increase our creative powers. For most adults, problems that require open-ended thinking are often best dealt with in the evening when they are tired, according to a study in the journal Thinking & Reasoning. When choosing a time of the day to exercise, paying attention to your body clock can improve results. Physical performance is usually best from about 3 to 6 pm, says Michael Smolensky, a professor of biomedical engineering. Of course, not everyone’s body clock is the same, making it even harder to synchronize natural rhythms with daily plans.

　　32．If we know our natural body rhythm well, we can ______.

　　A. find out the suitable time to do specific tasks

　　B. organize our time around work demands

　　C. do whatever our body feels like doing

　　D. be sure to be healthy

　　33．Which of the following is NOT true?

　　A. Our alertness is influenced by our natural body rhythm.

　　B. Doing whatever your body feels like is very difficult in our modern society.

　　C. Obeying our body clock is good for our health.

　　D. Disrupting our natural body rhythm must lead to obesity.

　　34．Inspiration (灵感) to solve a difficult problem will most probably come to us ______.

　　A. when we get up in the morning

　　B. when we are tired in the evening

　　C. when we are full of energy in the late morning

　　D. when we are asleep at night

　　35．Which of the following can be the suitable title for the passage?

　　A. What is natural body rhythm?

　　B. Natural body rhythm is good for us.

　　C. Something about natural body rhythm.

　　D. The latest research about natural body rhythm.
