二、TASK 1(总题数：1，分数：-1.00)
We're found that eating habits vary(变化)so much that it does not make sense to include meals
in the price of our tours. We want to give you the freedom of choosing restaurants and ordering
food that suits your taste and budget(预算).
As our hotels offer anything from coffee and toast to a full American breakfast at very reasonable
prices, it will never be a problem for you to start the day in the way you like best. At lunch
stops, your tour guide will show you where you can find salads, soups, and sandwiches.
Diner time is your chance to try some local food. Sometimes the tour guide will let you have dinner
at a restaurant of your own choice. At other times he or she will recommend a restaurant at your
hotel．Years of research have taught US which restaurants reliably serve a good choice of delightful
dishes atdown-to-earth prices．
In Mexico，Alaska, and the Yukon，where your restaurant choice may be limited, we include some
meals. The meals provided are clearly stated on the tour pages．

三、TASK 2(总题数：1，分数：-1.00)
Some cities have planned their transportation systems for car owners. That is what Los Angeles
did. Los Angeles decided to build highways for cars rather than spending money on public
transportation．
This decision was suitable for Los Angeles. The city grew outward instead of upward．Los Angeles
never built many tall apartment buildings. Instead，people live in houses with gardens.
In Los Angeles, most people drive cars to work. And every car has to have a parking space. So
many buildings where people work also have parking lots.
Los Angeles also became a city without a Central Business District(CBD). If a city has a CBD,
crowds of people rush into it every day to work. If people drive to work, they need lots of road
space．
So Los Angeles developed several business districts and built homes and other buildings in between
the districts. This required more roads and parking spaces．
Some people defend this growth pattern. They say Los Angeles is the city of the future.

（分数：-1.00）
(1).According to the passage，Los Angeles is a city where ______．

D．many tall buildings could be found in the city（分数：-0.20）
A. √

发展而不是纵向发展)”的解释说明，意思 是：洛杉矶决不建很多高层公寓楼，相反，人们主要建的是带花
园的房子。选项A意思是这个城市会变得 更宽阔而不是变高。因此选A。

九、TASK 2(总题数：1，分数：-1.00)
Cars are lots of fun, but they could also be dangerous. We have to be careful when we drive them
or ride in them．
It's always a good idea to put on your seat belt when you are in a car. Why? Think about this
example: You put an egg on a skateboard(滑板)and give it a push. If the skateboard hits as tone,
it will stop, but the egg won't. It will fly through the air, hit the ground and break．
Now, think what would happen if you tied the egg to the skateboard. When the skateboard hits a
stone, the egg won't go flying. It will stay safely on the skateboard．
Volvo, a famous Swedish carmaker, was the first to use seat belts in 1949. Air bags are also very
important for car safety, because sometimes a seat belt isn't enough. If the car is going really
fast and runs into something, seat belts could even hurt the people who wear them.
Most newer cars have air bags in front of and next to the seats. When a car hits something its
airbags will come out quickly—in less than one second—to keep the people inside safe.

十五、TASK 2(总题数：1，分数：-1.00)
People who work night shifts are constantly fighting against an “internal clock” in their bodies.
Quite often the clock tells them to sleep when their job requires them to remain fully awake.
It's no wonder that more accidents happen during night shifts than at any other time. Light
therapy(光照治疗法)with a bright light box can help night-shift workers adjust their internal
clock. However, many doctors recommend careful planning to help improve sleep patterns For example,
night-shift workers often find it difficult to sleep in the morning when they get off work because
the body's natural rhythm(节律)fights back, no matter how tired they are. Some experts recommend
that night-shift workers schedule two smaller sleep periods-one in the morning after work, and
another longer one in the afternoon, closer to when the body would naturally need to sleep. It’s
also helpful to ask friends and family to cooperate by avoiding visits and phone calls during
the time when you are sleeping.
