阅读下面的短文，请根据短文后的要求将答案答题（请注意问题后的要求）

The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before. But just as in face–to-face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when online.

The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated. Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes. For anything you’re about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person’s face?” If the answer is “no”, rewrite and reread. Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face.

If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct（本能反应）is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. You should either ignore the person，or use your chat software to block their messages. If it was caused by disagreement with another member，try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.

If you do decide to tell someone in the chat room about a mistake, point it out politely. At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.

It is not polite such as their age，sex，and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don’t ask such questions.

1.What’s the best title of the passage? （Please answer within 10 words.）

2.Why should we ask ourselves “Would I say this to the person’s face?” when we are to send a message online? （Please answer within 20 words.）

4.Which rule do you think is the best? Why? （Please answer within 30 words.）

Bedfordshire had its fair share of royal visits from the early stages of the 10th Century onwards and the importance that the county placed on this is evident in the monuments, country houses, churches and any number of other structures that are still present there to this day. Bedford Castle is one of those structures and, although it is nowhere near its former glory today, it is an essential attraction to visit if you really want to grasp what its heritage means to the county!

Bedford Castle was built initially as a fortress to help protect Bedfordshire on the south of the River Ouse after the people in the local towns and villages had already been subdued. It was erected in 919 on the orders of King Edward the Elder, although it was destroyed by a Danish invasion years later. This was when it was rebuilt as the castle, of which the ruins exist today!

There is a long history behind the castle that involves several kings as a result of the Duke of Bedford being an ardent royalist. Bedford Castle repeatedly offered the kings of England refuge against various storms in the form of onslaughts from abroad and various domestic threats against them, and this is where much of its fame lies, even though the castle itself is no longer there. There are various tours of the ruins that you can take when you visit though and all of the guides are extremely knowledgeable. They will happily tell you tales of the mound and the castle that preceded it.

The mound is open to the public all year round and is a proud part of the area’s heritage. It is recommended by the majority of people that visit Bedfordshire because it tells you much about why the county is currently how it is. You can view the river from the mound and the surrounding settlements as well as the remains of the castle, and every moment spent there is worth it so enjoy the history and the very nature of the county itself!

Electric cars are dirty. In fact, not only are they dirty, they might even be more dirty than their gasoline-powered cousins.

People in California love to talk about “zero-emissions（排放）vehicles”, but people in California seem to be clueless about where electricity comes from. Power plants most all use fire to make it. Apart from the few people who have their roofs covered with solar cells, we get our electricity from generators（发电机）. Generators are fueled by something--usually coal, oil, but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants. There are a few wind farms and geothermal（地热） plants as well, but by far we get electricity mainly by burning something.

In other words, those "zero-emissions" cars are likely coal-burning cars. Because the coal is burned somewhere else, it looks clean. It is not true. It's as if the California Greens are covering their eyes—“If I can't see it, it's not happening.” Gasoline is an incredibly efficient way to power a vehicle; a gallon of gas has a lot of energy in it. But when you take that gas（or another fuel）and first use it to make electricity, you waste a nice part of that energy, mostly in the form of wasted heat--at the generator, through the transmission lines, etc.

A gallon of gas may drive your car 25 miles. But the electricity you get from that gallon of gas won't get you nearly as far -- so electric cars burn more fuel than gasoline-powered ones. If our electricity came mostly from wind or geothermal, or solar, then an electric car truly would be clean. But for political, technical, and economic reasons, we don't use much of those energy sources.

　　In addition, electric cars' batteries which are poisonous for a long time will eventually end up in a landfill. And finally, when cars are the polluters, the pollution is spread across all the roads. When it's a power plant, though，all the junk is in one place. Nature is very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentrated, but it takes a lot longer when all the garbage is in one spot.

1.What’s the main idea of the passages?

A．Electric cars aren’t actually clean.

B．Electric cars are zero-emissions vehicles.

C．Zero-emissions vehicles are popular.

D．Gasoline-powered cars are more efficient.

2.Which of the following words can replace “be clueless about” in Paragraph 2?

A．Be familiar with．

B．Be curious about．

C．Fail to understand．

D．Show their interest in．

3.The electricity we get from a gallon of gas may make our car run _________.

A．at least 25 miles

B．more than 25 miles

C．as far as 25 miles

D．less than 25 miles

4.In the author’s opinion, compared with cars using gas, electric cars are more __________.

A．environmentally-friendly	B．expensive
C．efficient	D．harmful

5.It can be inferred from the passage that __________.

A．electric cars' batteries are poisonous for a long time

B．now electric cars are used more than their gasoline-powered cousins

C．zero-emissions vehicles should be chosen to protect our environment

D．electric cars are not clean in that we get electricity mainly by burning something

When the Japanese attacked America’s ships at Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941, they did it secretly. The makers of the movie Pearl Harbor have behaved differently.

The noise about Pearl Harbor, made by Disney，has reached its highest point with its premiere （首次公演） before the movie opens in cinemas across the US at the start of the Memorial Day holiday weekend, a time to recall national heroes who sacrificed their lives on the battlefield.

As Ben Affleck is the main star, the movie seems sure to become a success in the United States at least.

At almost three hours in length, it promises to be a good old Hollywood movie. There is a love story. Affleck and his co－star, Josh Hartnett, both fall in love with the navy nurse, Kate Beckinsale and, of course, there is much human courage and love of country.

It’s certain that Disney will be accused of “changing” history. The showing of actual events in a movie always causes arguments.

Bits of the story are deliberately not mentioned in the movie. It does not address the theory held by some historians that President Franklin Roosevelt knew about Japan’s intention to attack the ships in Pearl Harbor．It is said he did nothing, as he was aware that such a blow would allow him to take America into the Second World War.

Japan remains sensitive about being accused of wartime atrocities （暴行）. And Disney is sensitive about its business in Japan, where it has a theme park.

Not all the reviews of the movie have been full of praise. A reviewer for Newsweek, who was given an early preview, acknowledged that the 40－minute sequence （连续镜头） showing the attack itself was powerful. The attack comes quite late in the movie, however, and the reviewer was less impressed with the characters and the love story.

“Almost every line of the dialogue sounds like it comes from an old movie, ” the reviewer wrote.

1.From the passage we can infer that the Memorial Day refers to

A．the day the United States was founded

B．the day people remember their ancestors

C．a day people celebrate the victories of World War Ⅱ

D．a day people remember those who died in wars

2.From the passage we know that Ben Affleck .

A．regarded Josh Hartnett as an enemy

B．may be a very popular movie star

C．experienced the Pearl Harbor Incident

D．was in love with the actress Kate Beckinsale

3.Which of the following statements is TRUE about Pearl Harbor?

A．The movie will cause a lot of arguments.

B．The movie has made the Japanese angry.

C．The movie truly describes the Pearl Harbor Incident.

D．The movie shows that President Roosevelt knew about Japan’s intention.

4.According to the passage, what does the reviewer for Newsweek think of the movie?

A．The scenes of the attack leave no impression.

B．The dialogue in the movie is original and creative.

C．The attack scenes occupy too much time of the movie.

D．The characters and the love story are less attractive.

5.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A．Ben Affleck in Pearl Harbor.

B．The True Fact of Pearl Harbor.

C．Reviewer：Pearl Harbor is a success.

D．Attention！Pearl Harbor is arriving.
