I am traveling home. It is bitterly cold and snowy, but the warm train is right on time. I feel pleasantly satisfied as I look out at the rush hour traffic on the motorway. I feel more satisfied as the smell of fresh coffee announces the arrival of the drinks service. Swiss friends often tell me, proudly, that their rail service is the best in the world, but recently, one experience has proved that the great Swiss love affair with their railway has turned a little sour.
It all began with the decision to end ticket sales on trains. One cold morning I arrived at my local station only to find that the ticket machine was broken. No matter, I thought, I have got a smart phone, and I hurriedly set about buying my ticket that way. This was not as easy as I had expected, busying myself between credit card and phone with freezing cold fingers, but, by the time I got on the train to Geneva I had an e-ticket and I proudly showed it to the conductor. Unfortunately she told me that my ticket was not valid(有效的). Several weeks later a letter arrived from Swiss railways together with a fine for 190 francs ($ 210).
The good people there tell me the formal payment for my ticket from my credit card company arrived four minutes after my train left the station. That means, they say, that I bought my ticket on the train — and that is strictly prohibited.
Swiss railways say their policy is designed to protect honest ticket-paying passengers, but a quick look at their balance sheet suggests something else. The company is making about $2 million a month from fines.
Although train travel is still popular, those seats do not feel as comfortable; the coffee does not smell quite so good — because Swiss railways have lost, for now anyway,
高三英语 第12页(共12页)
something far more precious than $2 million a month: good relations with their customers.
24. What can we learn from paragraph 1?
A. The Swiss trains usually come late.
B. Traffic on the motorway goes smoothly.
C. The author hates traveling on the Swiss train.
D. The author is generally pleased with the Swiss rail service.
25. Why did the conductor say that the author’s e-ticket was invalid?
A. It was purchased online.
B. It was paid for after the train’s departure.
C. It was purchased on a ticket machine.
D. It was paid on a smart phone.
26. What does the author want to show by telling the experience?
A. The fine was unfair.
B. The conductor was impolite.
C. E-tickets are getting popular.
D. Credit cards can be inconvenient.
27. What does the author think of the new policy of Swiss railways?
A. It attracts more people to travel by train.
B. It makes the company lose a lot of money.
C. It damages company-customer relations.
D. It protects honest ticket-paying passengers.
C
For the last few months, I have given up what was previously one of my favorite foods: beef. Eating less red meat and be healthier, better for the environment and — surprisingly to me — really easy to do so. Sometimes it seems like much of our food is stuck in a cycle of excessive (过度的) production and excessive consumption.
Meat consumption today contributes to global warming and environmental degradation(退化). It’s estimated that 14.5% of global man-made greenhouse gas emission(排放) come from livestock(家畜) — which is more than the contribution from all forms of transport. Beef production makes up 41% of those emissions. Last year, Brazil reported a 28% increase in Amazonian deforestation(森林采伐) — 80% of deforested land in Brazil is then used for cattle farming. Modern beef farming is also a huge drain(流干) on water resources.
But it is possible to change. Reducing meat consumption is a growing trend, driven
高三英语 第12页(共12页)
by health and environmental considerations. A switch to a “healthy diet” as recommended by Harvard Medical School — which still includes eating meat, fish and eggs — would reduce greenhouse gas emissions from food production by 36%. The Norwegian military announced it is switching a one-day to a one-week vegetarian diet in a move against global warming, while even in the US consumption of red-meat is falling.
And as for yours truly, I feel healthier, more active and by making my diet more varied I never feel like I am missing out on anything. Stopping eating beef has also had a knock-on effect on the rest of my diet, and I am eating less. Cattle and other livestock don’t have to be environmentally harmful. Grass-fed cattle need much smaller resource input. And as it has been shown, livestock, if managed properly, can even restore degraded land.
In the longer term, as Bill Gates highlighted, there is also great potential for advance in fields like synthetic(合成) meat. And there are other more sources of efficient protein; like insects! But in a world where more people are now dying from obesity than malnutrition(营养不良) —when hundreds of millions of people still don’t have enough to eat, we can’t solve this problem by simply continuing to make “conventional” intensive farming more intensive.
28. Why has the author given up eating beef?
A. It is better for his health and global warming.
B. It can prevent him from being obesity.
C. It is better for both health and environment.
D. He likes vegetarian diet very much.
29. What result does cattle farming lead to?
A. The loss of deforestation. B. The great loss of water resources.
C. The loss of man-made greenhouse. D. The loss of livestock.
30. What’s the author’s attitude towards raising some livestock in an environmental way?
A. Negative. B. Doubtful. C. Favorable. D. Protective
31. In Bill Gates’ opinion, we can get efficient protein by _________.
A. raising more insects B. raising more cattle
C. developing man-made meat D. developing intensive farming
D
Using a mobile phone for more than 10 years increases the risk of getting brain
高三英语 第12页(共12页)
cancer, according to the most comprehensive study of the risks yet published.
The study — which is different from official statements that there is no danger of getting the disease — found that people who have had the phones for a decade or more are twice as likely to get a malignant tumour (恶性肿瘤) on the side of the brain where they hold the handset.
The scientists who conducted the research say using a mobile for just an hour every working day during that period is enough to increase the risk — and that the international standard used to protect users from the radiation is “not safe” and “needs to be revised”.
They concluded that “caution (警告) is needed in the use of mobile phones” and believe children should be discouraged from using them at all.
Britain’s largest investigation into the health risks of the technology, the Mobile Telecommunications and Health Research (MTHR) programme — founded by “government and industry sources” — reported that “mobile phones have not been found to be associated with any biological or harmful health effects”.
But its chairman, Professor Lawrie Challis, admitted that only a small percentage of the research had covered people who had used the phones for more than a decade. He warned, “We cannot rule out the possibility at this stage that cancer could appear in a few years’ time.”
The new study — headed by two Swedes, Professor Lennart Hardell of the University Hospital in Orebro and Professor Kjell Hansson Mild of Umea University, who also serves on the MTHR programme’s management committee — goes some way to meeting the deficiency (缺陷).
The scientists pulled together the results of the 11 studies that have so far investigated the occurrence of tumours in people who have used phones for more than a decade, using research in Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Japan, Germany, the United States and Britain. They found almost all had discovered an increased risk, especially on the side of the head where people listened to their handsets.
Five of the six studies of malignant tumour found an increased risk, and only one did not still found an increase in benign (良性的) tumour. Four of the five studies that looked at acoustic neuromas (听神经肿瘤) found them. The exception was based on only two cases of the disease, but still found that longterm users had larger tumours than other people.
The scientists put the findings of all the studies together to analyse them. This showed that people who have used their phones for a decade or more are 20 percent more likely to contract acoustic neuromas, and 30 percent more likely to get malignant gliomas
高三英语 第12页(共12页)
(胶质瘤).
The risk is even greater on the side of the head the handset is used: longterm users were twice as likely to get the gliomas, and two and a half times more likely to get the acoustic neuromas there than other people.
The scientists conclude, “Results from present studies on use of mobile phones for more than 10 years give a consistent pattern of an increased risk for acoustic neuroma and glioma.” They add that “an increased risk for other types of brain tumours cannot be ruled out”.
32. The new study headed by the two Swedes ________.
A. corrected the absence in the MTHR programme’s management
B. came to a conclusion similar to that of MTHR’s investigation
C. ruled out the possibility that longtime users could get brain cancer
D. made some improvements by expanding the investigation samples
33. The passage tries to tell us that ________.
A. using mobile phones is dangerous to people’s health
B. children should be forbidden to use mobile phones
C. people using mobile phones an hour every working day will get brain cancer
D. the more people use mobile phones, the more likely they are to get brain cancer
34. The underlined word “contract” in Paragraph 10 probably means “________”.
A. be infected with B. be associated with
C. be faced with D. be covered with
35. The best title of the passage is ________.
A. The Causes of Brain Cancer B. The Hidden Danger of Mobile Phones
C. The Research of Brain Cancer D. The Effects of Mobile Phones

Helen Keller once wrote, “The unselfish effort to bring cheer to others will be the beginning of a happier life for ourselves.” 36 The UN has set December 5 as International Volunteers Day to give recognition to these people.
Nineteen-year-old Andrew Makhoul was a communications major at the University of Pennsylvania. It was coming up to spring break, but unlike his classmates, Makhoul wasn’t planning on spending the break relaxing. 37 在
He traveled to Guatemala. He went to an orphanage(孤儿院)in one of the most violent and poor parts of Guatemala city. 38 Although he didn’t speak much Spanish, he found communication wasn’t a problem: “You communicated with love.” And
高三英语 第12页(共12页)
what he gave out, he got back: “You could see love when you looked in their eyes.”
Makhoul’s first time as a volunteer only lasted a week, but by the end of that week, he knew he’d be back in the future.
39 The UN highlighted the case of Palestinian women who are survivors of breast cancer. As part of the UN’s Aid and Hope Programme for Patient Care, the women have been volunteering their time to create low-cost breast prosthetics(假体)to be distributed to women for free, among whom Shahd El-Swerki is a brilliant example. 40 By the end of her time there, she admired these women who are “not only survivors but also volunteers”.
About 2,400 years ago, Greek philosopher Aristotle said, “The essence(本质)of life is to serve others and do good.” Volunteers all around the world are making these words come true, each and every day.
A. It depends upon volunteers to stay open.
B. She worked with the women as part of the programme.

A Good Man
It’s a late Saturday afternoon in early March, and I am sweating in search of the only gift my son wants from Los Angeles: a 41 to the homes of the stars such as Brad Pitt and Jet Li.
A cheerful taxi driver says, “No problem. Map sellers are everywhere!” When the taxi stops, a fellow 42 with a thin folded sheet and says: “Ten dollars.”
