30 St Mary Axe, commonly known as the Gherkin, was designed by internationally noted architect, Lord Norman Foster. Built in 2004, London’s first environmentally sustainable sky-scrapper was constructed for Swiss-Re, the largest re-insurance company in the world. The Gherkin, which is the sixth tallest building in London, was sold for over ￡600 million in 2007, making it the most expensive location in Britain to have an office. Since its completion, 30 St Mary Axe has won many architectural awards including in 2004 the Royal Institute of British Architects Stirling Prize and in 2006 the BD World Architecture the “most admired new building in the world”.
Lying in the heart of the city, Foster’s building is on the site of London’s historic Baltic Exchange which was severely damaged in 1992. Constructed exactly 100 years before completion of the Gherkin, surviving parts of the Baltic Exchange building were sold and are being re-constructed in Tallinn, the capital of the Baltic country Estonia. The Baltic Exchange, which trades in the sale of merchant vessels and transportation of industrial bulk commodities and originates back to 1744, was started by ship owners and brokers meeting in a coffee house.
At the top of the Gherkin, on the 40th floor, there is a private bar featuring a 360° panoramic view of London. Despite the building being rounded, the “lens”（镜头）shaped glass roof above the bar is the only curved glass in the building, and is similar in design to the glass dome which covered part of the ground floor of the old Baltic Exchange.
The smooth clean lines of the building cover a high tech and environmentally designed interior. To reach the roof bar there is a hydraulic lift, pushed from below, which doesn’t require any machinery above it. Double-glassed gaps in each floor create vertical corridors that help keep warm in the winter and improve air flow in the summer. This, coupled with all the natural light flooding in through the windows, results in the building needing much less energy.

For many people, selfies（自拍照）have been so popular as to be a must. New hairstyle Snap a selfie. Dining out Selfie. They’ve even been taken from beyond Earth’s atmosphere. A Japanese astronaut, Aki Hoshide, snapped one while visiting the International Space Station. In what may be one of the coolest selfies of all time, Hoshide caught his likeness alongside the sun, Earth, a robotic arm. a spacesuit and the inky darkness of the universe. In 2013, Oxford Dictionaries even crowned “selfie” as the word of the year.
It isn’t difficult to judge someone’s mood when a selfie is snapped—the images are, by their very nature, mood-driven. Whether you capture yourself with a smile or a fierce facial expression, scientists are figuring out ways to study self-portraits taken by smart phones and analyze what they say about you. Selfie studies will allow them to predict not only the subject’s mood, but also the mood of an entire region. A team of researchers led by Dr. Lev Manovich of the City University of New York has been studying thousands of Instagram self-portraits in select cities, including Bangkok, Berlin, Moscow, New York and Sao Paulo, to analyze how mood affects selfie poses. While many wondered if it was even possible to determine an entire city’s mood based on a smattering of self-portraits, the study has delivered promising results. Among the most interesting findings: People in Moscow smile the least of all the selfie cities that were analyzed, while Bangkok and Sao Paulo selfie subjects looked the happiest. The researchers were even able to uncover data on gender and age differences: On the whole, women were more expressive than men in their self-portraits, but men older than 30 were more likely to post selfies on Instagram than women.
Another study, started by Manovich and researchers from the University of California, San Diego and the City University of New York, studied 1 million selfies posted on Twitter. Is it possible to judge a person’s mood, or even a city’s mood from a selfie The answer, researchers say, is yes. They posit（断定）the ability to measure “happiness” of geographic regions using selfies and hope to use the method as an alternative to traditional surveys.
28. What does the example of the Japanese astronaut try to show
A. Snapping selfies isn’t easy.
B. Snapping selfies is a high technology.
C. Snapping selfies has become very popular.
D. Snapping selfies seriously affects people’s life.
29. Why can we easily judge people’s mood by their selfies
A. Selfies can affect the mood. B. Selfies can reflect the mood.
C. Selfies are supported by technology. D. Selfies may improve the mood.
30. What is the purpose of Dr. Lev Manovich’s study
A. To know why people love selfies.
B. To know the number of selfie lovers.
C. To know whether selfies predict moods.
D. To know the disadvantages of snapping selfies.
31. What can we learn from the text
A. Men like selfies more than women.
B. People in Moscow seldom smile at others.
C. Living in Bangkok is the happiest in the world.
D. Selfies may be used as a way of surveying a city’s mood.
D
In the past, falling oil prices have given a boost to the world economy, but recent forecasts for global growth have been toned down, even as oil prices sink lower and lower. Does that mean the link between lower oil prices and growth has weakened
Some experts say there are still good reasons to believe cheap oil should heat up the world economy. Consumers have more money in their pockets when they’re paying less at the pump. They spend that money on other things, which stimulates the economy.
The biggest gains go to countries that import most of their oil like China,Japan，and India.But doesn’t the extra money in the pockets of those countries’ consumers mean an equal loss in oil-producing countries, cancelling out the gains Not necessarily,says economic researcher Sara Johnson. “Many oil producers built up huge reserve funds when prices were high, so when prices fall they will draw on their reserves to support spend and subsidies(补贴)for their consumers.”
But not all oil producers have big reserves. In Venezuela, collapsing oil prices have sent its economy into free-fall.
Economist Carl Weinberg believes the negative effects of plunging oil prices are overwhelming the positive effects of cheaper oil. The implication is a sharp decline in global trade, which has plunged partly because oil-producing nations cant’s afford to import as much as they used to.
Sara Johnson acknowledges that the global economic benefit from a fall in oil prices today is likely lower than it was in the past. One reason is that more countries are big oil producers now, so the nations suffering from the prices drop account for a larger share of the global economy.
Consumers, in the U.S. at least, acting cautiously with the savings they’re getting at the gas pump, as the memory of the recent great recession is still fresh in their mind. And a number of oil-producing countries are trimming their gasoline subsidies and raising taxes, so the net savings for global consumers is not as big as the oil price plunge（猛跌）might suggest.
32. What does the author mainly discuss in the passage
A. The reasons behind the plunge of oil prices.
B. Possible ways to stimulate the global economy.
C. The impact of cheap oil on global economic growth.
D. The effect of falling oil prices on consumer spending.
33. Why do some experts believe cheap oil will stimulate the global economy
A. Manufacturers can produce consumer goods at a much lower cost.
B. Lower oil prices have always given a big boost to the global economy.
C. Oil prices may rise or fall but economic laws are not subject to change.
D. Consumers will spend their saving from cheap oil on other commodities.
34. What happens in many oil-exporting countries when oil prices go down
A. They suspend import of necessities from overseas.
B. They reduce production dramatically to boost oil prices.
C. They use their money reserves to back up consumption.
D. They try to stop their economy from going into free-fall.
35. Why haven’t falling oil prices boosted the global economy as they did before
A. People are not spending all the money they save on gas.
B. The global economy is likely to undergo another recession.
C. Oil importers account for a larger portion of the global economy.
D. People the world over are afraid of a further plunge in oil prices.

Working mothers can breathe a sigh of relief when dropping off their little ones in formal childcare. A French study has found children who go to nursery are better behaved and have fewer emotional problems than those cared for by family or a childminder.
36 The study, on the other hand, wanted to test what potential impact formal childcare settings from a young age could have on behaviour.
37 Those who had been looked after by a childminder were the most likely to have behavioral issues in both boys and girls, they found.
Scientists tracked children’s emotional development from birth up to the age of eight. Parents were asked a series of questions about their children’s behavioral and emotional problems at different ages, including any difficulties making friends, hyperactivity（多动症）, poor attention, conduct, and social skills. 38
Analysis showed those who received formal childcare were less likely to have emotional and behavioral problems, and more likely to have better social skills than those looked after by family or friends.
As women began entering the workforce in increasing numbers from the 1980s, some child development researchers have found that formal childcare and informal childcare appear. 39 Researchers find that overall, children benefited a lot from formal childcare.
Boys who went to nursery had fewer emotional problems, but those looked after by a childminder had more behavioral problems. Girls in particular benefited from the more formal childcare. 40
The authors conclude that access to high quality childcare in the first years of life may improve children’s emotional and cognitive development, prevent later emotional difficulties and promote prosocial（亲社会的）behavior.
A. Lack of daily interaction may result in children being unwilling to socialize.
B. Those who had gone to nursery performed better academically later on at school.
C. Informal childcare has harmful outcome for children’s social and emotional adjustment.
D. It’s because they are more likely to being shy, nervous or upset, researchers suggest.
E. Children who get formal childcare were less likely to have behavioral problems later.
F. They were also questioned on what type of childcare their children had been provided.
G. A study has suggested early formal childcare may improve their academic performance.

I prefer my English classes to be taught only by English, because it is helpful for us improve the ability of speaking and listening.
I have strong interested in English and foreign culture. I’d like to be totally absorbing in the atmosphere of English so that I can quickly make a progress. Therefore, since we are all English beginners, it’s really hard to understand the words what are difficult. We need Chinese explanation sometime.
In my perspective, we’re supposed to using Chinese as a minor way to explain things that are hard to understand.
