It was the first morning of the New Year and the weather was very cold. I have always been an early bird and my morning walks have been the 1 for the last 7 years, so I put on my shoes to 2 for my first walk of the New Year.

There was complete 3 outside. Litter could be seen everywhere. It seemed that everyone had an all-night 4 . It was too cold to 5 anyone to be awake to clear all the walkways at 5 in the morning. I was 6 to walk on the dirty walkways and decided to go back home.

I was about to leave 7 I saw Sam cleaning the garden. He is an employee of our society association and is 8 to take care of the walkways and the garden. I walked up to Sam as it was a（n） 9 to see him there cleaning at this time. He saw me and politely 10 me, "Happy New Year!" "How come you are here and doing all this on the very first day of a new year?" I asked. Sam answered 11 , "It is the first day of the year. I do not want people to walk on 12 walkways. It is the first day of the year so they should feel good and special. For me, today is like any other day and my job starts with the 13 ."

It was good to see someone so 14 at heart. Like other staff members, Sam could have taken a day 15 , but he woke up early and came for all of us.

Then we leave the place in high spirits, leaving the surroundings dirty. Life goes on and others need to 18 up early and clear the garbage. Isn't the very next morning a new day of a New Year for all those who clear our garbage? Why can't we also keep our 19 clean so that everyone can have a New Year the very next day? It is true that small things can make a big 20 in our lives.

第二部分 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

第一节 （共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

During my elementary school years, I used to compare my mom with my best friend Tiffany's mom.

Tiffany's mom always gave her lots of money to buy the most fashionable clothes and favorite food. Her mom allowed her to do anything she liked. I really admired Tiffany. My mom didn't give me much pocket money and she always told me that I should behave myself. I was annoyed with her.

Whenever I didn't get what I wanted, I would complain to my mom, Tiffany's mom would give her that! I wish she were my mom. Every time, my mom would calmly say "Poor Tiffany". I couldn't understand her. "She shouldn't be feeling sorry for Tiffany!" I thought. "She should be feeling sorry for me."

One day, I couldn't help saying to Mom, "Poor Tiffany? Lucky Tiffany! She gets everything she wants! Why do you feel sorry for her?" I burst into tears. My mom sat down next to me and said softly. "Yes, I do feel sorry for her. I have been teaching you a lesson that she will never be taught."

I looked up at her. "What are you talking about?"

Mom said with care, "One day she will really want something. Maybe she'll find out that she can't have it. Her mother won't always be around to give her money, and what's more, money can't buy everything."

She continued, "I have taught you valuable lessons by not giving you everything you want. You'll know how to look for bargains and save money, but she won't. You'll understand that you need to work hard to get the things that you want but she won't. When Tiffany is a grown woman, she'll wake up one day and she will be wishing that she had a mom like the one you've got. Life lessons are more important than modern clothes and delicious food."

It took some time, but I eventually understood my mom's words. Now I am a happy and successful woman.

The Future Body Network

Are you tired of wires that spread all over your desk and make your tea pour onto your keyboard? If so, you may consider using devices（设备）that use technologies like Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. Neither of them sends information through wires. It sounds perfect, doesn't it? But this is not the end of the story.

Scientists are now trying to use the human body to do a similar job. They have come up with the idea of sending information over the small electric field on the surface of the skin. To do this, a transmitter（传送器）could be built into your pocket or a portable device like an MP3 player. This transmitter would then use your skin's electrical field to send information to a receiving device. Since this kind of transmission can only go as far as 20cm, the receiver would have to be close to some part of your body.

By using this body network, you wouldn't need a wire to link your MP3 player in your pocket to the headphones in your ears, or to send to your computer the pictures from a digital camera hanging around your neck. Moreover, you can exchange electronic cards or share music files with others by shaking hands, dancing cheek（脸颊）to cheek, or kissing each other.

Now, here comes a question. Why would anyone want to use their body as a network when Wi-Fi and Bluetooth already exist? The answer lies in the fact that with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, it is hard to limit the signals only to your own use. In a busy place, you can never know who might steal your information. However, body networking is safer. It is hard for other people to pick up signals sent over the surface of your skin since this body network only has a limit of 20cm from your body. Thus, no one else can easily pick up and interpret your signals.

Moreover, the most important use of body networking in the future may well be communication within the body rather than just on its surface. Imagine having a number of small devices implanted under your skin and using them to control your own nervous system. In other words, imagine that you have a powerful in-body computer. What do you think of this idea? Does it sound cool, like being a character in the movie RoboCop? Or would you prefer to be just an ordinary human being?

35. What's the main idea of the passage?

A. Technology is causing us to be lazy. B. Technology is doing harm to our body.

C. Technology is advancing too quickly. D. Technology is making our life easier.

36. Which of the following is NOT the way to exchange information over the skin?

A. Shaking hands. B. Looking into one's eyes.

C. Kissing each other. D. Dancing cheek to cheek.

37. The body network is safer because ______
