26、Tips for avoiding traffic jams
The radio has more than just music. Check the local news station for the latest traffic report. Or go online and check traffic cameras before you set out. If there is a jam, you’ll be prepared and can try another route.
Take the road less travelled. Although highways may be the most direct route, back (偏僻的) roads can be much less crowded, which can save you from the frustration of the stopandgo traffic.
Rush hour isn’t just a lovely nickname. It means the morning and afternoon traffic lasts for several hours, but they’re still called “rush hour” for a reason — everyone’s on the road and in a hurry to get somewhere. Treat rush hour like bad weather — if you don’t have to go anywhere, stay off the roads.
Tips for those unavoidable traffic jams
Don’t break the law. You’ve gone 30 feet in 30 minutes and all of a sudden you see people using the shoulders (紧急停车道). Don’t behave like them. Not only is this illegal, but also there’s a good chance they’ll get caught or cause even more problems.
Pay extra attention to zigzaggers (Z字形行进者). When some people are anxious, they may start changing lanes (车道) every 5 seconds or cut you off. Keep checking your windows and mirrors for these lane changers.
Look for an escape. If it is possible to exit the road safely, do it. Use a GPS unit, and you can change your route midtrip if needed.
Be courteous. Good manners could help you avoid a possible accident. Allow people in from a lane that is ending. Speeding up to keep them out increases your chances of an accident.
【1】To avoid traffic jams, we are advised to do the following EXCEPT .
A．getting traffic news before leaving
B．changing lanes frequently
C．avoiding rush hours
D．choosing back roads
【2】What should we do when there are zigzaggers?
A．Sound the horn loudly.
B．Stop and let them go first.
C．Keep checking the mirrors.
D．Drive quickly to keep them out.
【3】In which part of a magazine can this passage be found?
A．Entertainment.
B．Advertisement.
C．Market.
D．Life.
27、How Do Languages Die?
How many languages do you think there are in the entire world? Altogether, people around the world speak about 6,000 languages. Does that surprise you? 【1】 Today, about half the world’s spoken languages are endangered. Experts say that another language becomes extinct (灭绝) every two weeks.
How do languages die? They die when people stop using them. But most people don’t just stop speaking their native language. It’s more complex than that. More often, they’re either pressured or forced to do so.【2】They’re often pressured to speak the area’s main language instead of their own. This leads many immigrants to stop using their native language. They might not even teach it to their children.
Slowly, the native language dies out.
Sometimes, languages shift or develop instead of becoming extinct. Have you ever heard that Latin is a dead language? In a way, it is. No one today speaks Latin as their native language.【3】 People still use Latin in many ways. Scientists use it to name plants and animals.
【4】 That means the death of a language hurts people’s ability to take part in cultural traditions. They might lose access to stories and knowledge that were passed down for many years. This is one reason why many people today are working to save dying languages.
How can languages be saved? Some young people learn the language of their ancestors as adults.
Linguists travel the world to record the last native speakers of dying languages【5】They do so in hopes that future generations will bring the languages back to life. Many educational programs today also work to help preserve native languages and cultures.
A．There used to be many more!
B．You may have used it in school.
C．Language is extremely closely tied to culture.
D．But that doesn’t mean it disappeared completely.
E．One example is when people move to a different country.
F．Some native speakers write dictionaries in their language.
G．There are plenty of things to do to help protect languages.
28、 Most maps show places you can visit and how to get there．Most maps, however, were not made by astronomers．At a recent meeting in Texas, three teams of these scientists presented new maps to show where dark matter was．
Dark matter neither produces nor reflects light, which means it's invisible (看不见) to human eyes and to most scientific instruments．That makes it a challenge to measure and study．What makes the matter more upset: Scientific measurements show that the universe holds about five times．as much dark matter as ordinary matter．Making up the known part of the universe, ordinary matter includes you, your dog, Earth, the sun, stars and planets．
Scientists find dark matter in the same way, they discover other things we can't see-by observing how the invisible matter affects things we can see．We can't see wind, for example, but we can feel a gentle wind or watch a windmill(风车) turning on a hill．Dark matter doesn't turn windmills, but it does have gravity．Like ordinary matter, dark matter holds everything around it firmly with gravity．Dark matter's gravity holds galaxies (星系) together and bends rays of light as they move past．
To make the new maps, astronomers trained powerful telescopes to watch for bending light arriving from distant galaxies．These telescopes recorded light that came from galaxies billions of light-years away．By studying how the light changed as it traveled through space, the astronomers could work out the location and shape of dark matter groups．
One of the new maps shows dark matter is more than 600 times as large as a full moon．The other covers an area more than a thousand times as large．But that's just the beginning: The astronomers want to carry on further studies to better understand the dark matter．
【1】We can learn from the passage that_____________．
A．most maps show the location of dark matter．
B．human eyes can’t see dark matter directly
C．galaxies are usually made of dark matter
D．dark matter is as much as ordinary matter
【2】What does the underlined word “gravity” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Pull．
B．Shape．
C．Light．
D．Wind．
【3】In paragraph 3 the writer explains the way to locate dark matter by_____________．
A．providing numbers
B．listing facts
C．making a comparison
D．offering a quote
【4】What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Ordinary matter makes up the known part of the space．
B．Scientists have found ways to draw maps of dark matter．
C．Dark matter is studied with the help of powerful telescopes．
D．Scientists put forward the theory of dark matter for the first time．
29、We all have been told since we were kids that we need at least 8 hours of sleep every night. 【1】 Not many.
Sleep, indeed, is one of the most important things our bodies need to stay healthy. Without enough sleep, we can’t work efficiently. Meanwhile, lack of sleep can even make us sick. 【2】
A lot of people eat late into the night and then try to sleep with a full stomach. 【3】While you're trying to sleep, your body is working hard to absorb whatever you've eaten. Stay away from food a few hours before you go to bed so that your body can rest.
If you need more hours in the day to get your work done, try to make a choice whether to wake up extra early and then go to bed on time, or stay up late a and then also get up late. Some people do better and are more productive when they stay up late. 【4】 Do some tests on yourself to see which option works better on you.
【5】. You body and your mind are more efficient when a routine has been set and a habit has been formed. Followed the same positive sleep patterns for a week or a month and you'll notice a big change in how much more relaxed you feel.
A．If you are struggling to get the sleep you need, here are some suggestions for you.
B．So it's vital to have enough sleep for us.
C．Turn sleep into a habit.
D．Others feel better and have more energy when they wake up early.
E．The more hours we sleep, the more energy we will have.
F．This will not provide you with a restful sleep.
G．However, how many of us actually get that many hours of sleep？
