21、If you want a little extra security against thieves stealing your bicycle, designer Dennis Siegel has designed a solution. The RFID Bikealarm is attached to the seat on a bicycle and gives off an alarm when it senses movement.
“The RFID Bikealarm is meant to be a useful add-on to mechanical bicycle locks because it greatly extends the range of protection with only a few components,” Siegel explains on his website. “It is low-cost, durable and easy to use.”
The Bikealarm was designed as part of Siegel’s Bachelor’s degree thesis at the University of the Arts Bremen in Germany. The device will scare off any would-be thieves the moment they begin to steal the bicycle to which it is attached. It is able to continuously sense the environment to distinguish between specific events, for instance a passing tram / car and a serious theft.
Siegel created a working model of an alarm that would sound when it sensed movement, but wasn’t initially sure how it would be best attached to a bicycle. “I decided to mount it to the rails of the seat because it allows for comfortable interaction and the position is less obvious as it looks like a small repair kit,” he says.
Siegel chose to use RFID technology rather than Bluetooth to keep the costs down. Siegel explains that the most difficult aspect of creating the alarm was to get the electronic circuit down to a small enough size.
The device runs off a kind of battery that can be charged by USB within 2 hours and lasts for a few days with normal use. As the Bikealarm is only at development stage, Siegel hasn’t signed any agreements to put it on the market.
【1】When it senses movement, the RFID Bikealarm will _____.
A. make a warning sound

【3】 What do we know about the RFID Bikealarm?
A. It can’t tell between specific events.
B. It is very difficult to use.
C. It uses a kind of battery for power.
D. It depends on Bluetooth technology.
【4】 It can be inferred from the last two paragraphs that ______.
A. the electronic circuit is a little larger
B. it’s very easy to make a Bikealarm

23、Life is not easy in senior high school. You’ve got the pressure of studies and exams.
From time to time, you may feel depressed and frustrated. When depression strikes, you have to take measures to fight it. One of the strangest ways to fight depression is to eat salt, scientists have found.
Salt acts as a natural anti-depressant (抗抑郁剂), researchers say. While too much can lead to high blood pressure and heart disease, not enough can cause “psychological(心理的) depressions”, a study has reported.
The study, by researchers at the University of Iowa in the US, discovered that when rats are deficient in salt, they don’t do activities they normally enjoy.
The recommended daily salt intake for an adult is four grams, although experts say the body needs only half as much.
However, most adults in the developed world consume（消耗）around ten grams a day, mainly because their diets contain high salt amounts. Today, 77 percent of US salt intake comes from processed and restaurant foods, like frozen dinners and fast food.
The minerals in salt are required by the body—in small quantities—to help move liquid in and out of cells. But too much can cause diseases, for example high blood pressure.
Today scientists are finding that salt is an addictive substance—almost like a drug.
One sign of addiction is using a substance even when it’s known to be harmful. Many people are told to eat less salt due to health concerns, but they have trouble doing so because they like the taste and find low-salt foods tasteless.
Humans have a long history of eating salt. In the Stone Age, people didn’t need to find salt, because they hunted most of their food, and ate a lot of red meat, which has plenty of salt in it. But when people began to farm, about 10,000 BC, they started to eat mainly grains like rice and wheat, and very little meat. Then they had to find another way to get salt.
【1】What does the underlined word "deficient" in the fourth paragraph mean?
A. enough B. far from enough
C. more than enough D. plenty
【2】The major role of salt is to ________.
A. help the body work well
B. help fight against depression
D. help people get rid of an addiction to drugs
D. help people enjoy sugary substances
【3】Which of the following statements is true?
A. People have trouble reducing salt because they don't know it is harmful to eat too much of it.
B. Before 10,000 BC, human beings did not need salt.
C. The richer the country is, the more salt is eaten there.
D. Taking more than 4 grams of salt a day can be harmful for an adult's health.
【4】What kind of food should people eat more of?
A. Frozen food B. Fast food
C. Red meat D. Low-salt food
24、阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
It’s interesting that technology often works as a servant for us，yet frequently we become a servant to it．E-mail is a useful tool but many feel controlled by this new tool．The average business person is getting about 80 e-mails per day and many feel that about 80% of the messages in their “Inbox” are of little or no value．
So，I have four suggestions to help you to become better at “Erasing E-mail”．
1．Get off the lists．The best way to deal with a problem is to never have it．If you are receiving a lot of unwanted e-mails，ask to be removed from the various lists．This would include your inclusion in unwanted lists．
2．“Unlisted address”．Just as you keep an “unlisted” telephone number that you share only with those whom you want to have direct access to，you might want to get a separate e-mail address only for the important communications you wish to receive．
3．Check it once or twice per day．Many I speak with are becoming chained to their email server，monitoring incoming email continuously．Maybe this is because e-mail creates its own sense of urgency，but most of the communications are not all that urgent．I respond to them a couple of times per day．
4．Deal with it．As you open each e-mail，do one of the following:
a．If it requires a quick response，respond to it and delete it．
b．If it requires a response but is not the best use of your time，try to find someone else to do it．
c．If it is going to take any serious amount of time to respond，schedule it for action in your Day Planner and then download the message，save it，or print it out for future action．
I personally receive about 250 e-mails per day and by practicing the suggestions above，I can handle that volume in about an hour，taking advantage of this fantastic tool but not being controlled by it to make sure I’m doing more important tasks in my day．
【1】If you get unwanted e-mails，the best you can do is to ________．
A．make a list of them
B．put them into unwanted lists
C．send them to a special address
D．ask to be deleted from different lists
【2】For the important communications，the writer suggests that you ______．
A．have a direct access for them
B．have several e-mail servers for them
C．get a separate e-mail address for them
D．get an unlisted phone number for them
【3】To avoid being chained by the coming e-mails，what you can do is to ________．
A．respond urgent ones only
B．reply to all of them at the same time
C．handle them a couple of times daily
D．keep replying to e-mails all day long
【4】To deal with an e-mail you get，you can do the following EXCEPT _______．
A．responding right away if it’s urgent
B．downloading every e-mail before you reply
C．scheduling it for later reply if it takes much time
D．asking someone else to reply to it if it’s not at your convenience
25、We have all heard the dangers of helicopter parenting. Remaining too_______ in a kid’s life, especially throughout college, can lead to depression, lack of self-reliance and feelings of entitlement.
Superficially, this wisdom is _______ .But some academics and educators now say they see signs of a troubling backlash(反冲).The concern: warnings that moms and dads should_______ ‘the over parenting trap"- are discouraging parents from getting involved at all.
Yes, parents can be intrusive _______, there are increasing examples of parents refusing to set up when students genuinely need their family. One mom kept _______about her son’ s signs of depression until right before he failed a semester. She did not want to “helicopter in’”.
That means colleges, which have spent the past decade learning to_______ parents who get too involved, now have a different _______. But the solution to both is the same: devising ways to _______moms and dads into the right kind of _______ role.
Much of this began because schools were forced to cope with a generation of students ________with their parents like never before, thanks to smartphones. And with __________in education soaring, university leaders have started to view parents as investment partners. Most or them have paid for this education for their children or gone into debt for this education. And in some sense, they are ____________ to know and be assured that colleges are __________ their children’s welfare.
Crucially, parent - outreach programs have also served as buffers (缓冲), ________students ----or worse, their professors -- the discomfort of the nagging . At the University of Maryland, for example, the parent office has handled ________for weekly academic - progress reports, which do not exist in higher education. Parents just want to know they have a place to go where someone will listen to their concerns.
But now, with some moms and dads cautious of even contacting the school in the first place, those same programs are being used to encourage a more balanced __________, often via blogs, email and Facebook. Parents are now advised to be a guide, while acknowledging that the __________ owns the Journey. That means asking questions, listening to answers, being patient and trusting kids to ____________ their own problems . But if issues ________, or if a student is in serious mental or physical danger , it also means hopping in the chopper , at least for a little while .“ When you think about it ,helicopters are useful tools ,” says Chelsea Petree , who is launching a parent - outreach program .“ They can see things we on the ________can ’ t see and get to emergencies quicker than we can . They can swoop in when needed . The key is that they go back up .”
