People’s walking while staring at their smartphones in a growing cause of concern.Authorities in a small German town have come up with a solution ---install traffic lights in the pavement to make them visible to people constantly looking down their phones.

The seemingly ridiculous safety measure was put in place when two passers-by in the town of Augsburg were recently hit by electric street trains as they crossed the street without looking up from their phones.Although they both escaped with only slight injuries,but a 15-year-old girl playing her smartphone in the street wasn’t so lucky.She was hit by the tram and dragged along for several feet before he died.So authorities in Augsburg decide to install ground traffic lights at two tram stops.

Some Augsburg residents appear to be quite happy with the measure. “I think it makes sense,” one local said..“I always see young people these days running over red light.This makes it more obvious that they need to stop.”Instead,others find the need for ground traffic lights disturbed.

I saw an accident happened on my way to home this afternoon. A girl was crossing the street on a zebra crossing while a young man drove a motorbike towards her.

Have you ever heard the old saying, “Never judge a book by its cover.” This is a good rule to follow when you tried to judge the intelligence of others. Some people have intelligence that shine only in certain situations. A young man with an unusual gift in creative writing may find him speechless in front of a crowd. He searches awkwardly of words and does not talk smoothly. And don’t make the mistake of thinking him stupidly. With a pen and a paper he can express himself very well. Other people may fool you into overestimate their intelligence by putting up a good appearance. The only way to determine a person’s intelligence is to get to know him. Then you can observe that he reacts to different situations. The more situations you observe, the accurate your judgment is likely to be.

Being sociable looks like a good way to add years to your life. Relationships with family, friends, neighbors, even pets, will all do the trick, but the biggest longevity (长寿) boost seems to come from marriage or an equivalent relationship. The effect was first noted in 1858 by William Farr, who wrote that widows and widowers were at a much higher risk of dying than their married peers. Studies since then suggest that marriage could add as much as seven years to a man’s life and two to a woman’s. The effect holds for all causes of death, whether illness, accident or self-harm.　　

Even if the chances are against you, marriage can more than compensate. Linda Waite of the University of Chicago has found that a married older man with heart disease can expect to live nearly four years longer than an unmarried man with a healthy heart. Likewise, a married man who smokes more than a pack a day is likely to live as long as a divorced man who doesn’t smoke. There’s a flip side, however, as partners are more likely to become ill or die in the couple of years following their spouse’s death, and caring for a spouse(配偶) with mental disorder can leave you with some of the same severe problems. Even so, the chances favour marriage. In a 30-year study of more than 10,000 people, Nicholas Christakis of Harvard Medical School describes how all kinds of social networks have similar effects.　　

So how does it work? The effects are complex, affected by socio-economic factors, health-service provision, emotional support and other more physiological mechanisms. For example, social contact can boost development of the brain and immune system, leading to better health and less chance of depression later in life. People in supportive relationships may handle stress better. Then there are the psychological benefits of a supportive partner.　　

A life partner, children and good friends are all recommended if you aim to live to 100. The final social network is still being mapped out, but Christakis says: “People are interconnected, so their health is interconnected.”

63．Linda Waite’s studies support the idea that _________.

A. the married are happier than the unmarried

B. older men should quit smoking to stay healthy

C. marriage can help make up for ill health

D. unmarried people are likely to suffer in later life

64．It can be inferred from the context that the “flip side” (Line 4, Para. 2) refers to _________.

A. the consequence of a broken marriage

B. the emotional problems arising from marriage　

C. the responsibility of taking care of one’s family

D. the disadvantages of being married

65．What can we learn about social networks from Christakis’s 30-year study?

A. They help develop people’s community spirit.

B. They provide timely support for those in need.

C. They help relieve people of their life’s burdens.

D. They have effects similar to those of a marriage.

66．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

　　A. To stay healthy, one should have a proper social network.

B. Getting a divorce means risking a reduced life span.

C. We should share our social networks with each other.

D. It’s important that we develop a social network when young.

America’s love-hate relationship with China develops speedily. The latest setback in the bilateral relation is another fearsome “China Scare”. Actually, though, in America it is nothing new. The United States’ politics seems to need a “China Scare” from time to time.

Recall that nearly a storm started around the book The Coming Conflict with China in 2007. Its author was two US journalists formerly working in Beijing. The debate was anything but positive about the Sino-US relationship. It is true that China’s strategic aims in Asia are not completely the same with those of the US. However, the authors seemed to worry far too much by putting much emphasis on China’s military strength.

American interest groups are afraid of competing with Chinese imports, because more and more American consumers begin to find Chinese goods a much cheaper choice. So they held this political view that China’s rapid growth is not a blessing for all concerned. Instead it was being thought of as a force threatening other Asia economies and America’s too.

“President Obama encourages the transfer of money, industrial capacity and technology to China that will help its development but still threaten the US and its allies”, charges William Hawkins, a supporter for protecting US business and industry. Then there’s also people saying that China’s gain is basically on everyone else’s loss. An increasingly globalized and modernized nation of 1.3 billion is not a win-win for almost everyone. It’s a losing situation for everyone, but for China.

That’s absurd, I think.

Sure, China’s neighbors in Asia are worried about Chinese competition and they know they have to work harder in order to compete with China. However, it is unnecessarily sending scare by imagining that economic growth will be greatly reduced, domestic stock markets will get ruined and employment levels will become lower. Certainly, China’s economic progress will cause some tense moments. But, on the whole, Asia and the rest of the world will benefit from China’s success.

Some people on the mainland who want to protect Chinese industries would interfere to slow down market opening. On the other hand, the Obama administration’s decision to cut down on import quotas on foreign steel brought about world wide anger. That decision has made US strategic and economic allies in Asia and Europe angrier at America than at anything China has done lately. So who is the greater threat—China or the United States—to the world economy? Let’s just say that what continues to be needed in America’s relationship with China is not another “red scare”, but the three facts all too often missing: common sense, political maturity and intellectual honesty.

59. Which of the following is not a true statement?

A. China Scare is a fairly fresh phenomenon.

B. Sino-US relationship has aroused a negative debate.

C. Opinions on Chinese competition in economic progress vary.

D. The world will generally benefit from China’s economic growth.

60. William Hawkin reacted ________ to President Obama’s policy on China.

  A. reasonably                B. objectively              C. respectfully            D. negatively

61. Which may best serve as the title of the above passage?

A. America’s Love-hate Relationship with China     B. Debate on Sino-US Relationship

C. Benefits or Threats from China and US?           D. China Scare, Is It Real?

  I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday. The advertisement in the paper said that you could buy tickets at the theatre box in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 and 4:00. Since I work from 9:00 to 5:30, the only time I could go to the theatre was during my 45-minute lunch break.
