In order to help discover spoilage and reduce food waste for supermarkets and consumers,
researchers have developed new low-cost, smart phone-linked, eco-friendly spoilage sensors for
meat and fish packaging.
One in three UK consumers throw away food just because it reaches the use-by date, but 60%
of the ?12.5 billion-worth of food we throw away each year is safe to eat.
The researchers, whose findings were published in ACS Sensors, say the sensors could also
eventually replace the use-by date—a widely used indicator of being fresh and eatable.
The sensors cost two US cents each to make. Known as “paper-based electrical gas sensors
(PEGS)”, they detect spoilage gases like ammonia (a poisonous gas with a strong unpleasant
smell) in meat and fish products. The information provided by the electronic nose is received by a
smart phone, and then you can know whether the food is fresh and safe to eat.
The Imperial College London researchers who developed PEGS made the sensors by printing
高三 英语 试卷第 3页(共 10页)
carbon electrodes onto a special type of paper. The materials are eco-friendly and harmless, so
they don’t damage the environment and are safe to use in food packaging. The sensors, combined
with a tiny electronic system, then inform nearby mobile devices, which identify and understand
the data about spoilage gases.
Lead author Dr Firat Guder of Imperial’s Department of Bioengineering, said, “Although
they’re designed to keep us safe, use-by dates can lead to eatable food being thrown away. They
don’t always reflect its actual freshness. In fact, people often get sick from food-borne diseases
due to poor storage, even when an item is within its use-by date.”
“These sensors are cheap enough so we hope to see supermarkets using them within three
years. Our goal is to use PEGS in food packaging to reduce unnecessary food waste.”
The authors hope that PEGS could have applications beyond food processing, like sensing
chemicals in agriculture, air quality, and detecting disease markers in breath like those involved in
kidney disease.
24. What is the fun_ction of PEGS according to the text?
A. To improve the taste of foods. B. To improve the service of stores.
C. To help supermarkets store foods. D. To help people test food freshness.
25. What role does the smartphone play while PEGS are functioning?
A. It acts as an electronic nose. B. It reads the data collected by PEGS.
C. It helps print the gas sensors onto paper. D. It discovers the spoilage gases from foods.
26. What does Dr. Firat Guder say about use-by dates?
A. They are not completely reliable. B. They can help reduce food waste.
C. They are based on scientific research. D. They are not accepted by the consumers.
27. What does the author mainly talk about in the text?
A. The process of researching spoilage sensors.
B. A new technology in packaging to reduce food waste.
C. The application of spoilage sensors beyond food processing.
D. The influence of use-by dates on supermarkets and consumers.

If your in-box is currently reporting unread messages in the hundreds or thousands, you
might have a hard time believing the news: e-mail is on the decline.
At first thought, that might seem to be the case. The incoming generation, after all, doesn’t do
e-mail. Oh, they might have an account. They use it only as we would use a fax machine: as a
means to communicate with old-school folks like their parents or to fulfill the sign-up
requirements of Web sites. They rarely check it, though.
Today’s instant electronic memos — such as texting and Facebook and Twitter messages —
are more direct, more concentrated, more efficient. They go without the salutation (称呼语 ) and
the signoff (签收 ); we already know the “to” and “from.” Many corporations are moving to
messaging networks for exactly that reason: more signal, less noise and less time. This trend is
further evidence that store-and-forward systems such as e-mail and voicemail are outdated.

Instead of my leaving you a lengthy message that you pick up later, I can now send you an easily-
read message that you can read — and respond to — on the go.
The coming of the mobile era is responsible for the decline of e-mail. Instant written
messages bring great convince to people. They can deal with them at about any time: before a
movie, in a taxi, waiting for lunch. And because these messages are very brief, they’re suitable for
smart phone typing.
Does this mean e-mail is on its way to the dustbin of digital history? Not necessarily. E-mail
still has certain advantages. On the other hand, tweets and texts feel ephemeral — you read them,
then they’re gone, into an endless string, e-mail still feels like something you have and that you
can file, search and return to later. It’s easy to imagine that it will continue to feel more
appropriate for formal communications: agreements, important news, longer explanations.
So, e-mail won’t go away completely. Remember, we’ve been through a transition (过度 )
like this not so long ago: when e-mail was on the rise, people said that postal mail was dead.
That’s not how it works. Postal mail found its smaller market, and so will e-mail. New technology
rarely replaces old one completely; it just adds new alternatives.
28. What would the incoming generation like to do with their e-mail accounts?
A. Check bank accounts. B. Send long messages.
C. Fill in some forms. D. Communicate with their colleagues.
29. Which of the following is mainly discussed in paragraphs 3 and 4?
A. The possible reasons behind the decline of e-mail
B. The likes and dislikes of the young generation
C. The rapid development of e-communication channels
D. Evidence about the uncertain future of easily-consumed messages
30. What does the underlined word “ephemeral” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Automatically-sending. B. Randomly-written.
C. Hardly- recognized. D. Shortly-appearing.
31. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
A. It’s too early to determine the decline of e-mail.
B. E-mail has reasons to exist with its own advantages.
C. E-mail, just like postal mail has come to its end.
D. We should feel sorry for the decline of e-mail.

Even though some people believe that money makes the world go around, many people
would choose health over wealth. For someone like violinist Robert Gupta, who was on his way to
becoming a physician before joining the Los Angeles Philharmonic at age 19, music, health, and
wealth are all part of the same package.
In addition to music, Gupta is deeply interested in neurobiology Because of his interests, he
has had the chance to work with Nathaniel Anthony Ayers, a talented musician whose career was
sidelined by schizophrenia. Although Ayers studied music at the Juilliard School York City, his
高三 英语 试卷第 5页(共 10页)
mental illness got in the way of professional success.
After dropping out of Julliard and having unsuccessful medical treatment for his
schizophrenia, Ayers moved to Los Angeles where he ended up homeless. In 2005, a journalist for
the Los Angeles Times named Steve Lopez heard Ayers playing music in the streets. Lopez wrote a
book about Ayers and became his friend. Their friendship became the subject of a movie, and
because of the book and the movie, Ayers has had a chance to perform his music in some of the
most famous concert halls in the world.
It seemed like Ayers had found his happy ending. However, he refuses to take medication to
treat his schizophrenia. He says it keeps him from “hearing the music”. Because of this, Ayers is
still subject to schizophrenia and sometimes leaves his home to go back to the streets.
Gupta was introduced to Ayers after Lopez took his friend to a performance of Beethoven’s
First and Fourth symphonies, and Ayers asked Gupta for a violin lesson. When they first met,
Ayers was on edge. Gupta was afraid that if he taught the lesson in his usual way, Ayers would
react violently. Finally, he just began playing. A change came over Ayers. Gupta said, “And m a
miracle, he lifted his own violin and he started playing.” The two musicians played many violin
pieces together that day. A bond was formed.
Music, Gupta realized, is a way to deal with our emotions, even our most unpleasant ones.
“This was the very reason why we made music through our creativity, we’re able to shape those
emotions into reality,” he says.
Now, Gupta says, “I will always make music with Nathaniel, whether we’re at Walt Disney
Concert Hall or on Skid Row, because he reminds me why I became a musician.”
32. From the first two paragraphs, we can learn that Robert Gupta________.
A. became a physician at the age of 19
B. was interested in the treatment of schizophrenia
C. was lucky to be wealthy, healthy and talented in music
D. had long dreamed to join the Los Angeles Philharmonic
33. Ayers got the chance to perform in some famous concert halls thanks to________.
A. Steve Lopez’s book and a movie about their friendship
B. his great efforts to fight against his mental illness
C. Robert Gupta’s original way of teaching music
D. his talent in composing and playing music
34. By “on edge” (in paragraph 5), the author means that Ayers was________.
A. excited but uncertain B. eager for a violin lesson
C. nervous and bad-tempered D. anxious about his own career
35. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A. A Great Musician B. Teaching Music
C. Why Study Music D. Music Is Medicine

Open an app at your smart phone and scan the code bar on the garbage can. When you throw
高三 英语 试卷第 6页(共 10页)
garbage into the garbage can, it will show the weight of the garbage and the points you can get
from doing so. 36 It will become more popular in the future. Yes, we are talking about
the smart garbage can.
37 The environmental problems have become constant headaches in the development
of those cities. Encouraging garbage classification has become an effective way.
In some cities, a variety of multifunctional smart garbage cans are being put into use. In
Beijing, for example, a smart garbage can is equipped with an LED screen, which not only shows
national policies on garbage classification but also shows the correct steps for garbage sorting. It
can also calculate the weight of the garbage and the accumulated points one can get. They can be
traded for some articles of daily use. 38 Its body is actually a screen. It is equipped with
some Internal sensors. When people throw garbage into it, the internal sensors can automatically
tell the types of the garbage. Meanwhile, people can see how to deal with them. 39
Garbage disposal is a small issue that involves everybody each day. However, it is also a big
issue. 40 With smart garbage cans in our daily life, the idea of garbage sorting will
become more established. Our dream of building a greener and more beautiful China will come
true so long as we start to make small changes right now.
A. Garbage sorting has been a new fashion.
B. Another kind of garbage can is even smarter.
C. It is no wonder that residents cheered for their presence.
D. Such a way of handling garbage has appeared in some cities.
E. It will affect China’s transformation towards green development.
F. Over 200 million tons of garbage is produced each year in some cities.
G. The good habit of garbage classification can improve the living environment.

Karen, Judy and I were the last ones back in the classroom after lunch. All of the other sixth
graders were already outside, since it was a pleasant spring day.
“Look at what I found this morning in the storage cupboard when I was getting out some art
supplies for Mrs. Eiffler.” said Karen, holding up a wooden box filled with short pieces of chalk in
every color of the rainbow.
"Wow! What fun it would be to write on the chalkboard while everyone is outside.” Judy
said. “But M “s. Eiffler doesn't allow us to write on the chalkboard.” I responded, already feeling
guilty. “Don't be afraid, Janet. No one will ever know,” said Karen.
高三 英语 试卷第 9页(共 10页)
I unwillingly joined my friends in the artwork, but was afraid of being caught. I knew well
that we were breaking not one, but two class rules. The second rule-was that no one was allowed
to stay inside at noon without a written excuse from home if the weather was nice.
Trying various colors, we drew houses, trees and three-dimensional boxes. It was fun! Then
Judy had an idea. "We're all right-handed. Let's see who can write our names best using our left
hands. Judy and Karen picked up their chalk and started writing. I chose a white piece from the
box and wrote my name. “I think Judy is the winner,” said Karen. “Hers is the best.”
“We’d better get this board cleaned off before Mrs. Eiffler comes back,” said Judy, erasing
our artwork from the board. Everything came off but my name!
In disbelief; I looked carefully at the chalk I held in my sweaty hand. It wasn't chalk at all,
but a small piece of white color crayon. My mother had a saying: " Fools, names and faces always
appear in. public places.” I never understood fully what it meant before. Now I did! My knees felt
weak. What would Mrs. Eiffler do to me? And the teacher would be returning soon.

66. Dear Sir or Madam,
I am Li Hua, a student in our school. I am rather willing to offer you my suggestions for
perfecting our library and increasing its popularity.
Firstly, it benefits a lot to diversify the categories of books and organize more reading-
related lectures, thus enabling students to make proper choices and stimulate our reading
interest. Secondly, more spacious room along with comfortable seats should be designed to
provide better reading experience. Also, why not hold meaningful activities like donating
second-hand books from students for the children in poverty-stricken areas, which can greatly
reduce the degree to which resources are wasted.
Hopefully my ideas will be helpful.
Yours,
Li Hua
67.“Quick, let’s get some wet paper towels," said Judy. Everyone sprang into action. After
rubbing pretty hard, my name still remained. “I think I saw a can of cleaner by the sink in the
coat room,” I said as I raced to find it. We rubbed with the cleaner and my name came off all
right, but in the process of removing it, we left a friction mark on the chalkboard. Listening
for footsteps coming down the hall, we dried the wet area as much as we could with more
paper towels and fanned it with a book to remove every tell-tale trace of wetness.
We were just slipping into our desks when the bell rang. The other students began
entering the classroom. The teacher walked in soon afterwards. Mrs. Eiffler never asked about
the friction mark. Maybe she never noticed it, but I did. Every time I walked past the
damaged surface of the chalkboard, I remembered it. Oh, how I remembered it so well. The
lesson I learned that day is one I never forgot, even though 40 years have passed since the
event. "No one will ever know” is never true. Even if no one else found out, I myself knew.
Sometimes living with a guilty conscience is punishment enough.
