  A

  Across Britain, burnt toast will be served to mothers in bed this morning as older sons and daughters rush to deliver their supermarket bunches of flowers. But, according to a new study, we should be placing a higher value on motherhood all year.

  Mothers have long known that their home workload was just as heavy as paid work. Now, the new study has shown that if they were paid for their parental labors, they would earn as much as £172,000 a year.

  The study looked at the range of jobs mothers do, as well as the hours they are working, to determine the figure. This would make their yearly income £30,000 more than the Prime Minister earns.

  By analyzing the numbers, it found the average mother works 119 hours a week, 40 of which would usually be paid at a standard rate and 79 hours as overtime. After questioning 1,000 mothers with children under 18, it found that, on most days, mums started their routine work at 7 am and finished at around 11 pm.

  To calculate just how much mothers would earn from that labour, it suggested some of the roles that mums could take on, including housekeeper, part-time lawyer, personal trainer and entertainer. Being a part-time lawyer, at £48,98 an hour, would prove to be the most profitable of the “mum jobs”, with psychologist a close second.

  The study shows mothers matter all year long and not just on Mother’s Day. The emotional, physical and mental energy mothers devote to their children can be never-ending, but children are also sources of great joy and happiness. Investing(投入) in time for parenting and raising relationsh ips is money well spent.

  21. How much would a mother earn a year if working as the Prime Minister?

  A.£30,000. B.£202,000. C.£172,000. D.£142,000.

  22. What is stressed in the last paragraph?

  A. mothers’ importance shows in family all year long.

  B. Investing time in parenting would bring a financial return.

  C. Mothers’ devotion to children can hardly be calculated.

  D. The sacrifices mothers make are huge but worthwhile.

  23. What can we conclude from the study?

  A. Mothers’ working hours should be largely reduced.

  B. Mothers’ labor is of a higher value than it is realized.

  C. Mothers should balance their time for work and rest.

  D. Mothers should be freed from housework for social life.

  B

  I log onto a computer at the doctor’s office to say I have arrived and then wait until a voice calls me into the examination room.

  There, a robotic nurse directs me onto a device and then takes my blood pressure. Some time later, in steps the doctor, who is also a robot. He notes down my symptoms and gives me a prescription (处方). I pay for my visit using a credit card machine and return home without having met another human being.

  When I call my dentist’s office and actually get a human being on the line, I am thrilled. And when I see the introduction of yet more self-service checkout stations at the grocery store, I feel like shouting, “When it comes to cashiers, make mine human, please! ”

  After all, human cashiers sometimes give you a store coupon (优惠券) for items you are buying. Even more than that, real-life cashiers often take an interest in particularly cute children, which can brighten a young mother’s day. A cashier may also show compassion (同情)for an elderly person struggling to get that last penny out of her purse.

  What technological device would do any of this? I don’t want to go back to the Stone Age, but I’m also worried about a world run by machines. Sometimes when you’re chatting with someone, you discover things you need to know. Maybe a receptionist needs prayers said for a sick child. Maybe a salesperson can offer a bit of encouragement to a customer who is feeling tired.

  Machines can be efficient and cost-effective and they often get the job done just fine. But they lack an element so important to everyday life.

  Call it the spirit, the soul or the heart. It is something no machine will ever have. It is being human that encourages us to smile at others, which may be what they need at that moment.

  24. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the first two paragraphs?

  A. To describe a possible future scene where robots take control of our life.

  B. To indicate high technology can make our future life very easy.

  C. To warn readers of the possible dangers of robotic nurses and doctors.

  D. To predict how technology can affect the way we see a doctor in the future.

  25. Why does the author prefer being served by humans rather than by robots?

  A. Robots don’t offer to give store coupons.

  B. Robots can’t provide efficient services.

  C. Robots are indifferent and emotionless.

  D. Robots are unable to do a job as well as humans.

  26. What’s the author’s attitude towards machines?

  A. He wishes one day they would come to life.

  B. He is absolutely against their existence in his life.

  C. He is afraid they would take the place of human beings.

  D. He doesn’t like they affect his life too much.

  C

  The world’s most popular banana is facing a major health crisis. According to a new study, a disease caused by a powerful fungus(真菌)is killing the Cavendish banana, which accounts for 99% of the banana market around the globe. The disease, called Tropical Race 4 (TR4), has affected banana crops in southeast Asia for decades. In recent years, it has spread to the Middle East and the African nation of Mozambique. Now experts fear the disease will show up in Latin America, where the majority of the world’s bananas are grown.

  Once a banana plant is infected with TR4, it cannot get water and nutrients. TR4 lives in soil, and can easily end up on a person’s boots. If the contaminated boots are then worn on a field where Cavendish bananas are grown, the disease could be transferred. “Once a field has been contaminated with the disease, you can’t grow Cavendish bananas there anymore,” Ploetz says.

  Cavendish bananas are popular among consumers. Ploetz says, “Consumers like the way Cavendish looks and tastes.”

  But Cavendish is also particularly attacked by TR4. “And they are all easily infected with this disease. So once one plant gets infected, it just runs like wildfire throughout that entire plantation.”

  Bananas have faced this kind of crisis before. In the mid-1900s, the most popular banana at the time was nearly wiped out by an earlier version of TR4.

  One solution to the problem, Ploetz says, is to try to develop new bananas that can resist TR4. “It really needs to be done, but we don’t have it yet.” He notes that we still have time before we need to worry about the Cavendish banana disappearing.

  27. The underlined word “contaminated” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “______”.

  A. replaced B. supplied C. prevented D. infected

  28. If a banana plant is infected with TR4, the banana plant will probably die of ____.

  A. thirst B. cold C. heat D. poison

  29. We can infer that the disease, called TR4 can ________.

  A. last for a long time in the soil B. be cured easily with chemicals

  C. be prevented from spreading easily D. damage a person’s boots

  30. which of the following is the best title?

  A. Hello, Bananas! B. Say No to Bananas!

  C. Bananas or TR4? D. Bye-Bye, Bananas?

  Ecotourism

  31 It is a new term in today’s tourism industry. But in an age of growing environmental awareness, it is not too difficult for us to imagine and understand this new form of holiday.

  Ecotourism, which is considered as a kind of responsible tourism, is typically defined(定义) as travel to places where special and unusual plants, animals and cultural heritages(遗产)are the main attractions. 32 Therefore, programs concerning the protection of some natural and cultural spots also form a part of ecotourism.

  Ecotourism is developing at great speed. According to a recent report by the World Tourism Organization, ecotourism in recent years has enjoyed an annual growth of about 5%worldwide. 33 They include bird watching, hiking, diving, photography and taking part in various kinds of local cultural events.

  If you love being close to nature, protecting the environment or improving the lives of people then ecotourism is an excellent way to see new and exciting places. 34 However, it looks like some smaller towns and country areas may well become the new destinations for people to visit tomorrow because they are rich in ecological, cultural and historical resources.

  Ecotourism has been gaining increasing recognition and popularity mainly for the relaxing, natural and vivid experience it offers to tourists. People are attracted to nature and long to be close to it. However, a conflict between nature and human beings is unavoidable. 35

  A. It takes ecology and culture into consideration.

  B. Big cities are still the major places that attract tourists in our society today.

  C. People can have great fun enjoying nature through ecotourism.

  D. How to protect natural resources while taking advantage of them is of great importance.

  E. You may not be very familiar with “ecotourism”.

  F. The definition of ecotourism is beyond words.

  G. More than 80 activities have been listed for ecotourism.
