2．Weeks have passed since the world lost contact with Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 and its 239 passengers and crew．
Although there is little hope of finding any of the passengers and crew alive，China has been making all-out efforts to find what remains of the plane in the southern Indian Ocean，where the plane is believed to have crashed．The search operations involve the navy，the marine police，scientific research and so on．While China's authorities and military forces have passed the test，the search operations have also shown some weaknesses．It is necessary to address these problems because China is a nation that faces many natural disasters．
Lack of professional equipment has been the most notable problem．Among all the ships involved in the search for MH370，only Nanhai jiu 115 and Donghai jiu 101 and a few other ships have professional rescue equipment．There are also gaps between China and the US in other technologies such as sea-probing （探测）equipment and telecommunications．China mainly sent transporter planes，which lacked the necessary equipment to probe the ocean．While the United States sent P-3 C and P-SA planes and MH60-R helicopters with equipment that can probe to depths of 76 meters and cover 770 sq kilometers in four hours．
China's technology clearly needs to be improved．After the plane lost contact on March 8，more than one satellite received signals from it，but there is no report of any of China's satellites receiving a signal．
Besides technology，China urgently needs to strengthen its international soft power，because almost all the important information was first obtained by Western media，which put pressure upon the Malaysian government for more timely and accurate information．Chinese media mainly forwarded the news broken by their Western colleagues．
Last but not least，more attention should be paid to international cooperation．The search and rescue efforts could well have been a race against time to save lives，but limited by international laws and the absence of cooperation mechanisms，China and some other countries involved did not fully share timely information．
（1）What is China's most urgent problem to be deal with in rescue work according to the passage？
A．Lack of international cooperation．
B．Not sharing timely information．
C．Lack of professional equipment．
D．Too many natural disasters．
（2）Which of the following shows that China's technology needs improving？
A．None of its satellites received any signal after MH370 lost touch．
B．Only a few ships have professional rescue equipment．
C．The military forces did not find the missing plane．
D．Chinese media mainly forwarded the news broken by their Western colleagues．
（3）What is the best title for this passage？
A．MH370，come back home now
B．China makes all-out efforts to find what remains of MH370
C．Lessons to be learnt from MH370 search
D．Why the missing MH370 cannot be found组卷：1引用：1难度：0.5 -
3．It is not a good idea to interrupt the actor Richard Griffiths in the middle of a play．During the past year he has stopped performances at the National Theatre when mobile phones have gone off，and he threw one member of the audience out of a West End play for failing to switch off his phone．
So when a mobile rang out for the third time during his performance as Hector，a teacher，in Alan Bennett's The History Boys at the Broadhurst Theatre in New York，he spoke angrily："I am not going to compete with these electronic devices"．
Griffiths' actions led a debate in the UK theatre world over whether phones should be forbidden by law from British theatres，too．Actors are already asking the government to legalise （使合法化） the use of electronic screening （屏蔽） devices to block mobile phone signals from theatres．
Technology companies market"blocking"devices that send out a high-powered signal on the same frequency （频率） as a mobile phone，occupying all the available spectrums （频谱）．
But these are forbidden in many countries because they might prevent emergency calls from being made．
Rosemary Squire，president of the Society of West End Theatre and co-founder of the Ambassador Theatre Group，which operates 12 West End theatres，said，"Phones are one of the biggest operational problems theatres face．We should look for equipment that could block phones or make a London-wide theatre rule．"
Nick Allott，the managing director of Sir Cameron Mackintosh's theatre group，said，"We would all welcome some ways of preventing ringing phones，but doctors and emergency workers need to be paged in a theatre and we mustn't prevent that．"
（1）The first two paragraphs are written to．
A．tell us why Griffiths was angry
B．blame Griffiths for his bad behavior
C．introduce the topic the passage will talk about
D．advise us to turn off the mobile phones in public places
（2）According to the passage，"blocking"devices．
A．have the same functions as mobile phones
B．prevent the mobile phones being used properly
C．cause the biggest problem theatres have to face
D．help make emergency calls
（3）The underlined word"paged"in the last paragraph can be replaced by．
A．prevented
B．protected
C．called
D．forbidden
（4）What will probably be talked about following the last paragraph？
A．Griffiths 'next performance in theatres．
B．The ways to solve the problem the public places face．
C．The opinions the public have about the problem．
D．The damage mobile phones result in．组卷：3引用：2难度：0.7

4．Eyesight plays a very important role in our daily life．Every waking moment，the eyes are working to see the world around us．Over forty percent of Americans worry about losing eyesight，but it's easy to include steps into our daily life to ensure healthy eyes．Here are five suggestions for a lifetime of healthy eyesight：
Schedule yearly exams．（1）Experts advise parents to bring babies 6 to 12 months of age to the doctor for a careful check．The good news is that millions of children now can have yearly eye exams and following treatment，including eye- glasses．
Protect against UV rays．Long-term stay in the sun creates risk to your eyes．No matter what the season is，it's extremely important to wear sunglasses．（2）
Give your eyes a break．Two-thirds of Americans spend up to seven hours a day using computers or other digital products．（3）Experts recommend that people practice the 20/20/20 rule：every 20 minutes，take a 20-second break and look at something 20 feet away．
（4）As part of a healthy diet，eat more fruits and vegetables each day．Vitamins C and E help protect eyesight and promote eye health．
Practice safe wear and care of contact lenses （隐形眼镜）．Many Americans use contact lenses to improve their eyesight．While some follow the medical guidance for wearing contact lenses，many are breaking the rules and putting their eyesight at risk．（5）Otherwise，you may have problems such as red eyes，pain in the eyes，or a more serious condition．
A．Eat your greens．
B．Eye care should begin early in life．
C．They can properly protect your eyes．
D．Stay in good shape by taking more vitamins．
E．Parents usually don't care about their own eyesight．
F．Always follow the doctor's advice for appropriate wear．
