The Visitor Oyster card
A Visitor Oyster card is the cheapest way to pay for a single adult journey in London. It's a plastic
smartcard. You can use it on the bus, tube, tram, DLR, London Overground and most National Rail
services. It's much cheaper than buying individual tickets, in some cases costing 50% less than the price of
a regular paper ticket.
How to get a Visitor Oyster card
You can buy a Visitor Oyster card online. Your card will be delivered by post. The card costs £5 and
you choose how much money you want to add to the card. This means you can start using the card the
moment you arrive in Central London.
How does the Visitor Oyster card work?
The Oyster card works on a pay-as-you-go system. You start by adding money to the card. Then you
travel, the cost of the fare will automatically be deducted from your Visitor Oyster card. For example, if
you add £20 to the card and make a tube journey of £2.30, you will have £17.70 left on the card.
A few more points:
A child under the age of 11 travels free when accompanied by an adult.
•You'll save more money if you use the tube several times. The Visitor Oyster card is "capped (给…...定
上限)"at £6.80 per day.
•You'll pay more during peak times. Peak fares apply from Monday to Friday (6:30am—9:30 am;
4:00 pm —7:00 pm), except for public holidays.
•Reuse the Oyster card by adding credit at a tube station, Oyster ticket shop or Visitor Centre.
•Receive a discount on the Thames Clippers River Bus services.
21. What can we learn about the Visitor Oyster card?
A. You can't use it during public holidays.
B. You can get a free Oyster card if you order online.
C. You can have it mailed directly to your home.
D. You can receive a 50% discount at any shop in London.
22. How much money will be deducted if you take the tube four times in a day with a Visitor Oyster card?
A. £9.20. B. £6.80. C. £3.40. D. £2.30.
23. Where can you add credit to your Visitor Oyster card?
A. At a tube station. B. At a bus station.
C. On the Internet. D. In convenience stores.B
The sound that woke Damian Languell at 8:15 in the morning was so loud that he assumed it came
from inside his house in Wade, Maine. As he got up to investigate, he heard another sound, this one coming
most definitely from outside. Looking out of his bedroom window, he noticed a tree enveloped in smoke
about 500 yards away. A car wrapped around the tree's base, its engine on fire.
Grabbing buckets of water, he and his wife ran to the crash site. Up close, the accident looked
worse. The car was split nearly in two, and the tree was where the driver's seat ought to have been, as if
planted there. No one should have survived this crash, and yet there was 20-year-old Quintin Thompson,
his terrified face pressed against the driver's side window, in visible pain.
Languell tried putting out the fire with his buckets of water but failed. When the flames got into the
front seats, he knew he had to get the young man out. So Languell opened the car's back door and climbed
in. Using a pocket knife he'd brought with him, he cut through Thompson's seat belt. Now that Thompson
was free, Languell pulled him out, and dragged him to safety before the entire car was in flames.
It is empathy that drove Languell to help, just as he said," My heart goes out to Thompson. When you
are that close to that level of hurt, you feel it so directly." For his heroic action, Languell was added to the
list of real-life heroes changing the world.
24. Where was the first sound actually from?
A. The basement. B. A house on fire. C. A car crash. D. The bedroom window.
25. What do we know about Quintin Thompson?
A. He was successfully rescued. B. He saved his car from fire.
C. He remained calm all the time. D. He was capable of helping himself out.
26. Which of the following best explains "empathy,' underlined in the last paragraph?
A. Responsibility. B. Wisdom. C. Honesty, D. Sympathy.
27. Which words can best describe Damian Languell?
A. Daring and generous. B. Courageous and noble.
C. Ambitious and reliable. D. Caring and grateful.
C
People who have got rhythm might have an advantage when it comes to language and reading skills.
A new study shows the brains of people who can move to a musical beat react to speech on a more
consistent basis than those who can't. Researchers also find that musical training can sharpen the brain's
response to language.
The researchers say their discovery provides the first biological link between the ability to keep a beat
and how the brain responds to speech, something that can have important value for reading skills. To gather
materials for their research, the team got more than 100 teenagers who lived in Chicago, Illinois. The teens
were given two tests. First, they were instructed to listen to and tap their fingers along to the beat. The
researchers calculated how accurately their young volunteers were able to tap along to the musical
timekeeper. Second, the teen subjects were linked to an EEG device, which measures electrical activity in
the brain. The EEG device was focused on an area of the brain that not only processes sound, but is also connected to parts of the brain responsible for motor-movement. The researchers recorded the brainwaves
as their teen subjects listened to the synthesized speech sound, which was repeated irregularly for half an
hour. The researchers were able to find out how the nerve cells in that particular region of the brain
responded every time the synthesized sound was played. a Across this population of adolescents, the more
accurate they were at tapping along to the beat, the more consistent their brains' response to the letter unit
was," said Nina Kraus.
While past studies have showed the links between reading skills and a person's ability to keep a beat,
the researchers said their new findings show the hearing system is what provides a common basis for those
links. “Rhythm is naturally a part of music and language." Nina said.
28. According to the first paragraph, what can get the brain's reaction to language more effectively?
A. Rhythm. B. Musical training. C. Language. D. Reading skills.
29. The underlined word “subjects” in Paragraph 2 probably means “___________
A. areas of knowledge studied in a school, college, and so on
B. things that are being discussed in a conversation or a book
C. persons or things that are the main features of works of art
D. persons or animals that are studied in an experiment or a research
30. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ________.
A. reading skills may make language learners keep a beat
B. the hearing system may be useless while a person is learning to read
C. the hearing system may separate sound from meaning while a person is reading
D. the hearing system may be used while a person is reading or taking musical training
31. What can we conclude from this passage?
A. Experts are expanding their studies on rhythm.
B. Rhythm might help us improve our reading skills.
C. Moving to a musical beat is more popular nowadays.
D. Experts find the links between the hearing system and reading.
D
Just how much does the Constitution (宪法)protect your digital data? The Supreme Court will
now consider whether police can search the contents of a mobile phone without a warrant ((授权令) if
the phone is on or around a person during an arrest.
California has asked the justices to restore the practice that the police may search through the
contents of suspects* smartphones at the time of their arrest. It is hard, the state says, for judges to assess
the implications of new and rapidly changing technologies .
The justices would be careless if they followed California's advice. They should start by rejecting
California^ weak argument that exploring the contents of a smart phone is similar to say, going through
a suspect's wallet. The court has ruled that police don't offend against the Fourth Amendment(修正案)
when they go through the wallet, of an arrestee without a warrant. In fact, exploring one's smartphone is
more like entering his or her home. A smartphone may contain an arrestee's reading history, financial history, medical history and comprehensive records of recent correspondence.
Americans should take steps to protect their own digital privacy and should avoid putting
important information in smartphones. But keeping sensitive information on these devices is
increasingly a requirement of normal life. Citizens still have a right to expect private documents to
remain private and protected by the Constitution's prohibition on unreasonable searches.
In many cases, it would not be very difficult for authorities to obtain a warrant to search through
phone contents. They could still trump (打出王牌)the Fourth Amendment protections when facing
severe and dangerous circumstances, such as the threat of immediate harm, and they could take
reasonable measures to ensure that phone data are not deleted or altered while a warrant is on the way.
The justices, though, may want to allow room for police to cite situations where they are entitled to more
flexibility.
But the justices should not swallow California's argument whole. New technology sometimes
demands fresh applications of the Constitution's protections. Orin Kerr, a law professor, compares the
explosion and accessibility of digital information in the 21st century with the establishment of
automobile use as a digital necessity of life in the 20th. At that time, the justices had to explain new rules
for the new personal domain (领域)of cars. Similarly, the justices must sort out how the Fourth
Amendment of the Constitution applies to digital information now.
32. The authors attitude toward California^ argument is one of ______________
A. disapproval. B. tolerance. C. indifference. D. cautiousness.
33. The author believes that exploring one's phone content is comparable to
A. scanning one's correspondences. B. handing one's historical records.
C. getting into one's residence. D. going through one's wallet.
34. In paragraph 4 and 5, the author shows his concern that
A. citizens' privacy is not effectively protected.
B. principles are hard to be clearly expressed.
C. phones are used to store sensitive information.
D. the court is giving police less room for action.
35. Orin Kerr's comparison is quoted to indicate that
A. the Constitution should be implemented flexibly.
B. Principles of the Constitution should never be changed.
C. California's argument violates principles of the Constitution.
D. New technology requires reinterpretation of the Constitution

Reading for pleasure is an alien concept especially between your to-do list, your deadlines, and your
complete lack of “your time: 36 However, tons of super successful people find time in their schedules
to read. After spending hours and hours trying different strategies, I'm excited to share the tricks that have
helped me make reading for pleasure reality.Combine it with an existing, enjoyable habit.
Writer James Clear introduced me to the concept of "habit stacking (叠放)" 37 According to
Clear, "the quickest way to build a new habit into your life is to stack it on top of a current habit. Since I've
always loved breakfast, I decided to “stack” the new habit of reading for 30 minutes on top of my existing
one of going to cafes and eating fried eggs.

At the beginning of each month, my friend and I share our reading lists and make sure to help each
other to finish them. After posting my first reading list with an image and "mentioning" a few authors, one
of them started following my account and another asked me to share my thoughts on his book. 39
Only allow yourself to buy a new book for every book you've finished.
Although I never read much until recently, I did have the bad habit of buying books—books that
would only collect dust on my shelves. I'll assume that I'm not the only one with this problem. 40
No matter how eager you are to purchase the new release that appeared in your local bookstore or on the
homepage of your Amazon account, don't—not unless you've recently finished a book from your reading
list. It's that simple.
A. Share your monthly reading goals with a friend.
B. Picking up a book and reading for fun feels impossible.
C. Be responsible to your friends and the Internet strangers
D. Thanks to this strategy, I got my bookish lifestyle started.
E. So I propose a solution that will help you both read more and save money.
F. Being addicted to social media sure keeps you from achieving your reading goal.
G Posting your list online to build connections with writers you admire will always make a difference.
