Places of business that used 1o keep daytime business hours are now open late into the night. And on the Internet, the hour of the day and the day of the week have become irrelevant (無關(guān)的). A half century ago in the United States, most people experienced strong and precise dividing lines between days of rest and days of work, school time and summer time. Today the boundaries still exist, but they seem not clear.The law in almost all states used to require stores to close on Sunday; in most, it no longer does. It used to keep the schools open in all seasons except summer; in most, it still does. And whether the work week should strengthen its legal limits, or whether it should become more flexible, is often debated. How should we, as a society, organize our time? Should we go even further in relaxing the boundaries of time until we live in a world in which every minute is much like every other?These are not easy questions even to ask. Part of the difficulty is that we rarely recognize the law of time even when we meet it face to face. We know as children that we have to attend school a certain number of hours, days and years but unless we meet the truant officer(學(xué)監(jiān)) , we may well think that we should go to school due to social custom and parents demand rather than to the law. As adults we are familiar with extra pay for overtime working, but less familiar with the fact that what makes up overtime is a matter of legal definition (法律規(guī)定). When we turn the clock forward to start daylight-saving time, have we ever thought to ourselves: Here is the law in action? As we shall see, there is a lot of law that has great influence on how to organize and use time: compulsory education law, overtime law, and daylight-saving law as well as law about Sunday closing, holidays, being late to work, time zones, and so on. Once we begin to look for it, we will have no trouble finding a law of time to examine and rate.（1）By saying Sunday is more like Monday than it used to be, the writer mans that _. A . work time is equal to rest timeB . many people have a day off on MondayC . it is hard for people to decide when to restD . the line between work time and rest time is unclear（2）The author raises the questions in Paragraph 2 to introduce the fact that people _. A . fail to make full use of their timeB . enjoy working overtime for extra payC . are unaware of the law of timeD . welcome flexible working hours（3）According to the passage, most children tend to believe that they go to school because they _. A . need to acquire knowledgeB . have to obey their parentsC . need to find companionsD . have to observe the law（4）What is the main idea of the passage? A . Our life is governed by the law of time.B . How to organize time is not worth debating.C . New ways of using time change our society.D . Our time schedule is decided by social customs.5. （10分）閱讀理解Apple has created a new robot named Daisy that can break a dead iPhone into pieces and find out valuable materials such as silver and tungsten (鎢) in order to protect the environment.The robot can break up a dead phone in just 18 seconds and is a new type for Liam, another recycling robot Apple announced in 2016. Liam had 29 arms and could break iPhone into pieces within just 11 seconds.Daisy is able to break up 9 kinds of the iPhone, grouping them into usable parts. And it can find out valuable materials that traditional robots cant do.Without being stopped. Daisy is likely to do with over 1 million phones per year, a small part of the more than 2017 million phones Apple sold in 2017. The machine is programmed to carefully break up the many pieces of returned iPhones, including SIM card plates, batteries and cameras.It does this by taking away different parts of the iPhone bit by bit so they are all easier to recycle, separating out the valuable silver, tungsten and other parts. Computers made by other companies seem to be easier to break up. However. Apple does not make it public how many of its dead phones are recycled every year.（1）What can the new robot Daisy do according to the passage? A . Break up a dead iPhone in 11 secondsB . Break up nine kinds of the iPhone.C . Produce valuable materials such as gold.D . Damage SM card plates and cameras.（2）How many iPhones can Daisy probably do with a year? A . Less than 1,000,000.B . About 217.000.C . More than 1,000,000.D . Over 217,000.000.（3）Which of the following can be used to describe Daisy? A . Disabled.B . Silly.C . Simple.D . Helpful.（4）In which part of the newspaper can we probably read the passage? A . Science & Technology.B . Music & Art.C . Culture & History.D . Travel & Life.6. （8分） Most people around the world are right-handed. This also seems to be true in history. In 1799, scientists studied works(作品) of art made at different times from 1, 500 B. C. to the 1950s. Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed, so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common through history. Today, only about 10% to 15% of the worlds population is left-handed.Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists now know that a persons two hands each have their own jobs. For most people, the left hand is used to find things or hold things. The right hand is used to work with things. This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain (大腦). The right side of the brain, which makes a persons hands and eyes work together, controls(控制) the left hand. The left-side of the brain, which controls the right hand, is the centre for thinking and doing problems. These findings show that more artists should be left-handed, and studies have found that left-handedness is twice as common among artists than among people in other jobs.No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed instead of left-handed. Scientists have found that almost 40% of the people become left-handed because their main brain is damaged(損害) when they are born. However, this doesnt happen to everyone, so scientists guess there must be another reason (原因) why people become left-handed. One idea is that people usually get right-handed from their parents. If a person does not receive the gene (基因) for right-handedness, he/she may become either right-or left-handed according to the chance (偶然性) and the people they work or live with.Though right-handedness is more common than left-handedness, people no longer think left-handed people are strange or unusual. A long time ago, left-handed children were made to use their right hands like other children, but today they dont have to.（1）After studying works of art made at different times in history, the scientists found .A . the art began from 1, 500 B. C.B . the works of art ended in the 1950sC . most people shown in the works of art are right-handedD . most people shown in the works of art are left-handed（2）How many people in the world are left-handed now?A . Less than one sixth.B . More than a half.C . Less than a half.D . The passage doesnt tell us.（3）What is the left hand for most people used to do?A . Its used to find or hold things.B . Its used to work with things.C . Its used to make a persons eyes work together.D . Its the centre for thinking and doing problems.（4）According to (根據(jù)) the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A . No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed.B . Left-handedness is cleverer than right-handedness.C . Today children are not made to use their right hands only.D . Scientists think there must be some reason why people become left-handed.（5）The best title(標(biāo)題) for this passage is .A . Scientists New InventionsB . Left-handed PeopleC . Which HandD . Different Brains, Different Hands.7. （8分）根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。How green are you ? Do you know how to be green?We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you.ReduceReduce means “use less”. Dont waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think whether it is really necessaryor maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad.ReuseReuse means “use again”. Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should look after them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Dont use a paper cup or a paper bag. Its better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.RecycleRecycle means “change things into something else”. Though it takes energy(精力) to change something into something else, its better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighborhood and take part in recycling programmes. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.So please remember these three words： reduce, reuse and recycle.（1）What is the passage about ?A .
