To show how to apply for membership of Starcom B Clara Barton, born on Christmas in 1821, is widely known as one of the most honored women in American history. She began teaching school when most teachers were men at that time. Later, she became one of the first women ever to be employed by the government.‎ Her career in helping the sick began when her brother David became her first patient. He fell down from the roof of a house when Clara was just 11 years old. She stayed by his side and looked after him for three years, learning how to give him all his medicines.‎ When the Civil War began in 1841, she immediately recognized that the poorly equipped soldiers needed help. Instead of waiting for others to step in, Clara collected necessary things on her own, asked the public for donations and learned how to store and distribute(分发 分配) them to soldiers. She also read to the soldiers and wrote letters for them.‎ After the Battle of Cedar Mountain in northern Virginia in 1842, Clara arrived at a field hospital at midnight with a vehicle full of supplies. A doctor named Paul Smith at that hospital would later write, “I thought heaven had sent out an angel that night — her assistance arrived at exactly the right time.”‎ In 1849, Clara went to Europe and learned about the International Committee of the Red Cross. Upon her return to the United States, she successfully founded the American Red Cross. She led the organization for the next 23 years. Her last field mission (使命) as president of the American Red Cross was to help the victims of the 1900 Galveston hurricane. She did not retire (退休) from the American Red Cross until she was 83. True to her nature, Clara always went to where the need was the greatest.‎ Today, the American Red Cross continues the mission Clara started more than 100 years ago. With the help of thousands of volunteers, the American Red Cross provides relief to victims of disasters, as well as helps people prevent, prepare for and respond to all sorts of emergencies.‎ ‎4.

After the Civil War broke out, Clara Barton _____.‎ - 10 -‎ A. joined the army and fought bravely B. went to Europe for further study C. continued to work as a teacher D. did a lot to help soldiers ‎6. Seeing Clara Barton’s arrival, Dr. Smith must have felt _____.‎ A. excited and grateful B. proud and joyful C. shy and nervous D. sad and sorry ‎7. What is mainly described in Paragraph 5?‎ A. The aim of the American Red Cross.‎ B. The importance of voluntary donations.‎ C. Clara Barton and the American Red Cross.‎ D Clara Barton’s contribution to the Civil War.‎ C Whenever something looks interesting or beautiful, there is a natural desire of us to capture (捕捉)and preserve it--which means, in this day and age, that we are likely to reach for our phones to take a picture.‎ Though this would seem to be an ideal solution, there are two big problems associated with taking pictures. Firstly, we are likely to be so busy taking pictures that we forget to look at the world whose beauty and interest encourage us to take a photograph in the first place. And secondly, because we feel the pictures are safely stored on our phones, we never get around to looking at them. So sure are we that we’ll get around to them one day.‎ The first person to notice the problems was the English art critic (评论家),John Ruskin. He was a keen traveler who realized that most tourists make a poor job of noticing or remembering the beautiful things they see. He argued that humans have a natural tendency to respond to beauty and desire to have it, but there are better and worse expressions of this desire. At worst, we get into buying souvenirs or taking photographs. But, in Ruskin’s eyes, there’s just one thing we should do--attempting to draw the interesting things we see, regardless of whether we happen to have any talent for doing so.‎ Ruskin said, "Drawing can teach us to see: to notice properly rather than gaze absent-mindedly. In the process of recreating with our own hands what lies before our eyes, we naturally move from a position of observing beauty in a loose way to one where we acquire a deep understanding of its parts."‎ Ruskin deplored the blindness and hurry of modern tourists, especially those who - 10 -‎ ‎ prided themselves on traveling around the whole Europe in a week by train, "Changing of places at a hundred miles an hour will not make us stronger, happier, or wiser. There was always more in the world than men could see if they ever walked slowly; they will see it no better for going fast. The really precious things are thoughts and sights, not pace"‎ ‎8. According to Paragraph 2, when taking pictures, people tend to____.‎ A. forget to appreciate something attractive on the spot B. find it hard to learn skills of taking good pictures C. find a good way to keep things in their minds D. have a chance to meet the challenge of new technology ‎9. According to Ruskin, what should travelers do to best express their appreciation of and desire for something beautiful?‎ A. To speak it out openly B. To photograph it instantly C. To purchase it immediately D. To paint it directly ‎10. From the fourth paragraph, we can infer that Ruskin encourages us to be___.‎ A considerate and determined B. active and adventurous C creative and thoughtful D. sensitive and ambitious ‎11. The underlined word "deplored" in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to ____.‎ A. appreciated B. criticized C. favored D. ignored D Technology offers conveniences such as opening the garage door from your car or changing the television station without touching the TV.‎ Now one American company is offering its employees a new convenience: a microchip（微芯片） implanted （植入）in their hands. Employees who have these chips can do all kinds of things just by waving their hands. Three Square Market is offering to implant microchips in all of their employees for free. Each chip costs $300 and Three Square Market will pay for the chip. Employees can volunteer to have the chips implanted in their hands. About 50 out of 80 employees have chosen to do so. The president of the company, his wife and their children are also getting chips implanted in their hands.‎ The chip is about the size of a grain of rice. Implanting the chip only takes about a second and is said to hurt only very briefly. The chips go under the skin - 10 -‎ ‎ between the thumb and forefinger. With a chip in the hand, a person can enter the office building, buy food, sign into computers and more, simply by waving that hand near a scanner. The chips will he also used to identify employees. Employees who want convenience, but do not want to have a microchip implanted under their skin, can wear a wristband（腕带）or a ring with a chip instead. They can perform the same tasks with a wave of their hands as if they had an implanted chip.‎ Three Square Market is the first company in the United States to offer to implant chips in its employees. Epicenter, a company in Sweden, has been implanting chips in its employees for a while. ‎ Three Square Market says the chip cannot track the employees. The company says scanners（扫描仪） can read the chips only when they are within a few inches of them. “The chips protect against identity theft, similar to credit cards.” The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the chips back in 2004, so they should be safe for humans, according to the company.‎ In the future, people with the chips may be able to do more with them, even outside the office. Todd Westby is Chief Executive Officer of Three Square Market. He says, “Eventually, this technology will become standardized allowing you to use this as your passport, public transit, all purchasing opportunities, etc.”‎ ‎12. What is the third paragraph mainly about?‎ A. The substitutes of the chips. B. The potential risks of implanting the chips.‎ C. The places to implant the chips. D. The advantages of the chips.‎ ‎13. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 5 refer to?‎ A. the hands B. the scanners C. the employees D. the credit cards ‎ ‎14. We can infer that_____.‎ A. the chips have magic powers ‎ B. the price of the chips is reasonable C. the chips are very popular among the employees ‎ D. most people suspect the application of the chips ‎15. Which of the following best describes Todd Westby's attitude towards the chips?‎ A. Pessimistic B. Disappointing C. Casual D. Optimistic 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分） ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 ‎ What's the difference between Sundays and weekdays? We can hardly answer it in our real life.
