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。

For many people, a special sale is just too attractive to walk away from. 1. But with sales items, how can you be sure you’re really getting a good deal? If you understand some sales tricks, you will be able to make smart choices.

Some tricks have been used by shopkeepers for ages. 2. For example, if an item is US$11.99 instead of US$12.00, you’ll feel like you’re spending less money.

Sellers sometimes reduce items by a certain amount. 3. That means that even with the discount, you may still pay more than the original price.

Shopkeepers clearly understand what makes you want to buy their products. But with a little preparation, you can avoid being cheated.

Tips for shoppers

*Always compare prices before buying anything.

* 4. The more focused you are, the easier it is to make wise decisions.

*Don’t shop when you are hungry. Studies show that you’ll usually buy more than you originally planned.

*5. First ask yourself: Do I have the money to buy it? Will I use it? If not, walk away, but if so, go for it! That way you’ll still feel good after you take your item home.

A.Know what you’re looking for.

B.Watch for“Buy one, get one free”sales.

C.And that makes shop owners very happy!

D.One of the oldest is to make prices end in 99.

E.Don’t buy something just because it’s on sale.

F.Check for sales ads in the newspaper or online.

G.But before the sale begins, sellers might mark the prices higher.

You can’t always predict a heavy rain or remember your umbrella. But designer Mikhail Belvaev doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in you getting wet. That’s why he created Lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain sensing umbrella.

The designer says he came up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “Once, I was driving on a central Saint Petersburg street and saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be appropriate to have a canopy(伞蓬)built into a street lamp,” he said.

The Lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has a built-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella on demand. Sensors(传感器)then ensure that the umbrella offers pedestrians(行人) shelter whenever it starts raining.

In addition to the rain sensor, there’s also a 360°motion sensor on  the fiberglass street lamp which detects whether anyone’s using the Lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used, the canopy is closed.

According to the designer, the Lampbrella would move at a relatively low speed, so as not to cause harm to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded(埋地线) to protect from possible lightning strike. Each Lampbrella would offer enough shelter for several people. Being installed(安装) at 2 meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians.

While there are no plans to take the Lampbrella into production, Belyaev says he recently introduced his creation to one Moscow Department, and insists his creation could be installed on any street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies to provide shelter.

1.What’s the implied meaning of the underlined sentence?

A. You’d better check the weather forest before going out.

B. You may get sheltered from rain even if you don’t have an umbrella.

C. Weather forecast is not always reliable.

D. You’d better take an umbrella if you fail to check the weather forest.

2.Which of the following shows how the Lampbrella works?

A. motor→canopy→sensors

B. motor→sensors→canopy

C. sensors→motor→canopy

D. canopy→motor→sensors

3.What does paragraph 5 mainly tell us about the Lampbrella?

A. Its safety.             B. Its appearance.

C. Its installation.       D. Its moving speed.

4.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A. The designer will open a company to promote his product.

B. The Lampbrella could be put into immediate production.

C. The Lampbrella would be put on show in Moscow.

D. The designer is confident that his creation is practical.

In some countries,open campus (校园) is widely accepted. For example, French students have a two-hour lunch break from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. During their lunch break, they can eat at home or at a restaurant. But students in the Philippines have a tougher schedule. They have only two 15-minute breaks and an hour for lunch.

What Schedule would be best for American schools?

Having breaks between classes is great, but having breaks off campus is even better. There are several advantages to open campus, including simple conveniences such as being able to eat different meals during lunchtime, rather than having the cafeteria (自助食堂) dishes, as well as having the chance to take a break at home.

However, there are more reasons I disagree with allowing high school students the right to have an open campus. Sure, it’s great being able to escape school during the day for a while, but soon enough that may easily become the rest of the day.

If open campus is allowed, it is very possible that such freedom will make it all too easy for students to skip their afternoon classes. Of course, there will be students responsible enough to come back to school.

But unexpected problems such as heavy traffic, city bus delays (延迟) or cars breaking down may prevent them from returning to school. It benefits the students to stay in school during lunch hours to avoid transportation issues.

Depending on how close the school is to restaurants and students’ homes, open campus could be a great idea. Unfortunately, though, most public schools in America are not located close enough to restaurants or students’ homes, thus causing the negative results to outweigh (超过) the positives in the end.

1.Compared with French students, students in the Philippines        .

A.have a poor diet             B.get better grades

C.have less freedom             D.prefer eating on campus

2.In the author’s opinion, open campus will probably        .

A.lead to heavy traffic

B.cause students to cut school

C.attract more students to school

D.increase students’ sense of responsibility

3.What can we learn from the text about most American public schools?

A.They have a two-hour lunch break.

B.They allow students to eat outside.

C.They plan to have open campus.

D.They are far from students’ homes.

4.The text mainly discusses whether high schools should        .

A.have a strict schedule

B.have a long lunch break

C.have open campus for lunch

D.be located close to restaurants

Maddie Messe, 13, has always loved Temple Run, a mobile game that sends her racing through swamps (沼泽) and forests to outrun a pack of crazed monkeys. What she didn’t love was being forced to play as a boy — unless she was willing to buy a female version. “I felt like l was being cheated or misrepresented,” Maddie explains.“Girls are just as capable (有能力的) of running away from monkeys as boys are.”

So last winter, Maddie researched 50 of the most popular iPhone games. What she found was infuriating:90 percent offered free male characters, but only 15 percent let you play as a female for free.

Armed with those statistics, Maddie drafted a spirited article and fired it off to several major newspapers. The Washington Post agreed to run the piece, which attracted millions of readers around the globe including the makers of Temple Run! “We realized she had a point,” says Natalia Luckyanova, the game’s co-creator. “It was the kick in the pants we needed to say,‘We should fix it.’So we did.”

Now you can play Temple Run with a female character for free, but Maddie hopes her campaign inspires something deeper.“If you don’t see characters that look like you on TV or in movies or games, speak up! Just do your research first,”says Maddie. “One well-supported argument is much more effective than a million angry complaints.”

1.What did Maddie hate about Temple Run?

A. It had no female versions.

B. It charged for female versions.

C. Its female versions were too expensive.

D. Its female versions were not good enough.

2.Maddle’s findings_________.

A. pleased her    B. cheated her

C. angered her   D. comforted her

3.To Natalia Luckyanova, Maddie’s article sounded________.

A. amusing         B. persuasive

C. impractical     D. unreasonable

4.Maddie encourages readers to_________.

A. play mobile games within limits

B. write articles for major newspapers

C. respond to complaints in a proper way

D. do some research before making an argument
