Noise pollution in cities is causing ourhealth to suffer: one in five
Europeans is regularly exposed to sound levels atnight that could significantly damage their health, leading to diseases, sleepdifficulties and stress. Researchers in Belgium have developed an app called NoiseTubethat allows everyone to transform their smartphone into a sound level meter .
NoiseTube works by recordingsound levels and GPS locations. Once launched the app shows decibel levels of green or red depending on the level of noise. That information isthen sent to the NoiseTube server via the Internet where a “noisemap” is produced and then made available to the user.
The project started in 2008 asa new form of data gathering, one that was close to people and of a socialconce rn. “Sound was an obvious choice because everyone has a microphone ontheir mobile phone, and noise pollution, along with air pollution is anenvironmental concern. Often the two go hand in hand,” D’Hondt of theNoiseTube project said.
Since its launch, the app hasbeen popular with community groups who want to monitor their own noise levels.They don’t think that city produced noise maps give an enough explanation ofthe level of noise they are experiencing. City produced noise maps are based onstatistical models involving very few actual measurements. NoiseTube on theother hand gives a detailed account of the level of noise experienced at aspecific time and location. “Ten people walking the same area from 9am to10am every day for one week can make a valid and detailed map for anarea of a couple of blocks,” D’Hondt said.
So far these sorts of noisemaps have been produced for a number of
European cities. The app has beendownloaded by 10, 000 people with 2, 700 people registered on the NoiseTubewebsite.
（1）What is the main function of NoiseTube?

C . NoiseTube can show the process of drawing noise maps.
D . NoiseTube is a built-in app in a new kind of smartphone.
（3）What is paragragh 2 mainly about?

I was born and raised in England in aculture where privacy and “keeping yourself to yourself” were valuedtraditions. Speaking to strangers was n ot encouraged. People were mosthospitable and friendly.
However, I have been luckyenough to spend some time in both Italy and the US, where I found traditions ofhospitality and politeness to be very
different.
I experienced Italianhospitality firsthand. On a crowded railway carriage travelling, one afternoon,from Genoa to Florence, sinking gratefully into an empty seat, I was scolded inrapid Italian by a gentleman who was returning to this seat ---- it had not been”spare” after all. I apologized in Englis h, and got up to allow himback into the seat. The gentleman obviously had no understanding of the Englishlanguage, but he, too, realized my genuine mistake. He smiled andgestured for me to remain in the seat, and he himself remained standing in thecorridor for the remainder of the journey. The other occupants of the carriagesmiled and nodded at me and made me feel quite welcome amongst them. I feelthat if this had been in England, a foreigner who made a mistake would notalways be so kindly treated.
Transport also featured in thedifferences I noticed between English and American culture. I flew to New Yorkon a plane with mainly English passengers. We sat together in near silence.Nobody spoke to me nor, as I expected, to anyone else they did not know. Theyfelt it was not polite to interrupt someone else’s privacy. However, when Itravelled across the United States, whether by plane or bus, I was never shortof conversation. Conversation was going on all around me and whoever sat nextto me was happy to introduce themselves and ask me about myself. They obviouslyfelt it would have been rude not to speak to another person, whether they werestrangers or not.
（1）What do we know about the occupants when the author was travelling in Italy?
A . They were all on the side of the gentleman.
B . They all laughed at the author for his mistake.
C . They would not bear a mistake like the author’s in public
D . They all showed their understanding of the author’s mistake.
（2）How does the author finally believe the Italian people are?
A . Cold.
B . Rude
C . Helpful.
D . Hospitable.
（3）Why did English passengers sit in near silence according to the last paragraph?
A . They were too tired to speak to anyone.
B . They were all strangers to each other.
C . Privacy was a valued tradition in England.
D . Everybody was deeply lost in though.
（4）What can be the best title for the text?
A . Different Ways of Hospitality and Politeness
B . Co-understanding Each Other
C . My Unforgettable Travelling Experience Abroad
D . The Importance of Privacy

Dear Peter,
Hearing that you’ll return backto your country, I think it was a good idea to choose some items typical ofChinese culture to take with you.
The item come first into mymind is the Chinese kite, the cultural symbol of my hometown. Kite, mostly madeof paper, are often designing into diverse shapes, some with lovely animalimages like butterflies, eagles and so on. People can fly kites in the openair, where is a popular form of entertainment. Besides, a pen container withthe Chinese ink painting on it is also a nice choose. I’m sure each time youuse them, you will recall this unforgettable experience in China.
I hope my advice can behelpfully to you. Wish you pleasant journey home.
Yours,
Li Hua

His art and talent were recognized by almost no one. He suffered from a mental illness that led him to cut off part of his left ear in 1888 and to shoot himself two years later. But after his death, he achieved world fame. Today, Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh is recognized as one of the leading artists of all time. Now, 150 years after his birth on March 30, 1853, Zundert, the town of his birth, has made 2003 “The van Gogh Year” in his honor. And the van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, home to the biggest collection of his masterpieces, is marking the anniversary with exhibitions throughout the year. The museum draws around 1.3 million visitors every year. Some people enjoy the art and then learn about his life. Others are first interested in his life, which then helps them understand his art. Van Gogh was the son of a pastor(牧师). He left school when he was just 15. By the age of 27, he had already tried many jobs including an art gallery salesman and a French teacher. Finally in 1880, he decided to begin his studies in art. Van Gogh is famed for his ability to put his own emotions into his paintings and show his feelings about a scene. His style is marked by short, broad brush strokes(笔画).“Instead of trying to reproduce exactly what I have before my eyes, I use color more freely, in order to express myself more forcibly,” he w rote in a letter to his brother in 1888. Van Gogh sold only one painting during his short life. He relied heavily on the support from his brother, an art dealer who lived in Paris. But now his works are sold for millions of dollars. His portrait of Dr. Gacher sold for $89.5 million in 1990. It is the highest price ever paid for a painting. “I think his paintings are powerful and the brilliant colors in them are attractive to people,” said a Van Gogh’s fan. 1. All through his life, Van Gogh . A. depended on his brother B. worked hard on art studies C. was not recognized by people D. expressed himself in paintings 2.Van Gogh killed himself because of .

After that, Edwarda’s sister Colleen O’Bara took over. Her family’s unending care for her became a story told across the world.
