16、erviewed. B The 1900 house The Bowler family was one of more than 400 families who applied to 1900 house, a reality TV show which took a typical family back a hundred years to see how people lived in the days before the Internet, computer games and even electricity. The Bowler family spent three mon

17、ths in a London home without a telephone, computers, TV, or fast food. The Bowlers wore clothes from 1900, ate only food available in English at that time, and cooked their meals on a single stove. Paul Bowler still went to work every day in a then uniform.

18、way to and from school and their classmates didnt know about their unusual home life.

19、e old days had just as many troubles and worries,” Joyce said ,“and I dont think their life was better or worse.

20、ng nice to each other all the time,” eleven-year-old Hilary said. So what did the Bowler family miss most about modern life while living in the 1900 house?

23、games B To make phone callsC To listen to music D To chat on the Internet C Stop Spam! When I first got an e-mail account ten years ago, I received communications only from family, friends, and colleagues. Now it seems that every time I check my e-mail, I have an endless series of advertisements and

24、 other correspondence that do not interest me at all. If we want e-mail to continue to be useful, we need specific laws that make spamming (发送垃圾邮件) a crime.If lawmakers do not do something soon to prohibit spam, the problem will certainly get much worse. Computer programs allow spammers to send hund

25、reds of millions of e-mails almost instantly. As more and more advertisers turn to spam to sell their products, individual (个人的) e-mail boxes are often flooded with spam e-mails. Would people continue to use e-mail if they had to deal with an annoying amount of spam each time?This problem is troubli

26、ng for individuals and companies as well. Many spam e-mails contain computer viruses that can shut down the entire network of a company. Companies rely on e-mail for their employees to communicate with each other. Spam frequently causes failures in their local communications networks, and their empl

27、oyees are thus unable to communicate effectively. Such a situation results in a loss of productivity and requires companies to repeatedly repair their networks. These computer problems raise production costs of companies, which are, in the end, passed on to the consumer.For these reasons, I believe

28、that lawmakers need to legislate (立法) against spam. Spammers should be fined, and perhaps sent to prison if they continue to disturb people. E-mail is a tool which helps people all over the world to communicate conveniently, but spam is destroying this convenience.28.What does the underlined word “c

29、orrespondence” in the Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Messages B. Ideas C. Connections D .Programs29. According to the text, what is the major cause of the flooding spam? A. Companies rely on e-mail for communications.B. More people in the world communicate by e-mail.C. Many computer viruses contain s

30、pam e-mail.D. More advertisers begin to promote sales through spam.30.According to Paragraph 3, who is the final victim of spam? A. The business B. The advertiser C. The employee D. The consumer 31.What is the purpose of the text? A. To inform B. To educate C. To persuade D. To instructD Have you wi

31、nterized your horse yet? Even though global warming may have made our climate more mild, many animals are still hibernating(冬眠). Its too bad that humans cant hibernate. In fact, as a species, we almost did. Apparently, at times in the past, peasants in France liked a semi-state of human hibernation. So writes Graham Robb, a British scholar who has studied the sleeping habits of the French peasants. As soon as the weather turned cold, people all over the France shut
