A
If you need to spend time on the road，it’s important to find ways to keep safe on your feet. Don’t suppose it's your right of way. Yes, you might be crossing at the right place, at the right time, within the crosswalk area, but you are still exposed to danger. It could be a distracted driver, or a cyclist with a loose sense of traffic rules, so you could still get hurt. You can be in the right legally, but that won’t be much help when you're in the hospital.
Follow pedestrian signals. Just as drivers aren’t supposed to speed up to beat a light when crossing through an intersection, pedestrians need to take the same care when obeying their o wn signals. If the hand is flashing
and the countdown is into single digits (数字），stay where you are. Trying to outrun the flashing hand is unsafe，especially as cars try to clear the intersection before the light turns red.
Give drivers enough time to stop when crossing. Don’t suppose that drivers will jam on their brakes when you hit the crosswalk signals. Some provinces, such as Alberta, issue (发出）a ticket if you don’t give drivers enough time to brake.
Cross quickly. Once you’ve followed all of the other rules, and it is safe to cross the street, don’t then just wander along in front of six lanes (车道）of traffic. There’s no need to run or jog, but respect the drivers who respected you enough to stop for you.
21. Who is the text intended for?
A. Drivers.
B. Cyclists.
C. Police.
D. Pedestrians.
22. What does the underlined word “distracted” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Considerate.
B. Strange.
C. Kind-hearted.
D.
Absent-minded.
23. In what case would pedestrians in Alberta be fined?
A. Racing against time with drivers.
B. Following crosswalk signals.
C. Crossing the crosswalk area.
D. Walking outside six lanes.
24. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Rules for Traffic Police
B. Tips to Keep Safe on Your Feet
C. Things Every Driver Should Know
D. Signals for Both Pedestrians and Drivers
B
At primary school in New Zealand, I was introduced to a school savings account run by one of the local banks. When our money box was full, we took it to the bank and watched with pride as our coins flo wed across the counter. As a reward，we could choose our next money box from a small variety, and start the whole savings routine again. Every week I watched my parents sort out the housekeeping and “make ends meet”. Sometimes it was annoying to wait for things we really felt we needed.
Later, as a university student, I managed on an extremely small student allowance. Students were ignored by banks then, because we were so poor, and there was no way I could have gotten credit, even if I had tried. We collected our allowance three times each year, deposited it to the best advantage and withdrew it little by little to last until the next payout of the allowance.
When our daughter, Sophie, began to walk, we made a purposeful choice to encourage her to use money wisely. We often comment when the TV tells us “You owe it to yourself to borrow our money"—to whom do we really owe it? And what would happen if our income were reduced or dried up? Now, as a 12-year-old child, it’s almost embarrassing to see her tight “fi nancial policy”，and wait for the unavoidable holiday sales to buy what she wants.
I agree that financial education in schools is very important. But the root of the problem lies with us and the way we behave as role models to those who follow.
25. What did the author learn from her parents?
A. How to become a banker.
B. Where to open a savings account.
C. Where to choose a money box.
D. How to make ends meet.
26. How did the author manage the student allowance?
A. He applied for a credit card.
B. He spent it three times a year.
C. He put it in the bank.
D. He seldom withdrew it.
27. What reflects Sophie’s tight “financial policy”？
A. Reducing her savings.
B. Buying things on sales.
C. Canceling holiday plans.
D. Borrowing money from banks.
28. What’s the text mainly about?
A. Parents，money problems.
B.Students' school performance.
C. Children’s saving behavior.
D. Children’s financial education.
C
In the past, friendships were greatly limited by time, space and attention；increasing home and workplace mobility has made it even harder to keep social relations over time. Through a combination of user controls, new technologies and changing standards of social behavior, Facebook is freeing us from these l imitations, making friendships more accessible, pleasant and diverse than ever before.
First, Facebook allows you to fin d and rediscover friends and then reminds you of these connections, so that you are less likely to fall out of touch with the long-lost school friend, or the family member in a different country. 'Second, Facebook creates an environment that allows you to interact easily with others ：you can share your photos，videos，links and thoughts with your friends，and respond to what they share in turn. Third, Facebook’s unique technical system helps you to discover your

Artists and designers both create visual works using a/an 1 knowledge background, but their reasons for doing so are 2 different. Some designers consider themselves artists, but few artists consider themselves 3 . So what exactly is the difference between art and design? Perhaps the most fundamental difference that we can all agree on is their 4 . Typically, the process of creating a work of art starts with nothing, a blank sheet of paper. A 5 of art is born from a view or value that the artist holds within himself or herself.

The most renowned and successful art today is something that establishes the strongest 8 connection between the artist and their 9 . By contrast, when a designer sets out to 10 a new piece, they almost always have a 11 starting point, whether a message, an image, an idea or an action. The designer’s job isn’t to invent something 12 , but to communicate something that already exists, for a purpose. That purpose is almost always to motivate the audience to do something: buy a product, use a 13 , visit a location, or learn certain information. The most 14 designs are those that most effectively 15 their message and motivate their consumers to carry out a task. 1. A. unique B. separate C. shared D. accepted 2. A. entirely B. occasionally C. hardly D. unnecessarily 3. A. inventors B. designers C. writers D. viewers 4. A. purpose B. product C. interest D. cost 5. A. love B. type C. part D. work
