3、A Bad Idea
Think you can walk, drive, take phone calls, e - mail and listen to music at the same time? Well, New York's new law says you can't. And you'll be fined $ 100 if you do so on a New York city street. The law went into force last month, following research and a shocking number of accidents that involved. people using electronic gadgets (小巧机械) when crossing the street.
Who's to blame? Scientists say that our multitasking (多任务处理) abilities are limited. "We are under the impression that our brain can do more than it often can," says Rene Marois, a neuroscientist (神经科学家) in Tennessee. "But a core limitation is the inability to concentrate on two things at once."
The young people are often considered the great multitaskers. However, an Oxford University research suggests this perception is open to question. A group of 18 to 21 years old and a group of 35 to 39 years old were given 90 seconds to translate images into numbers, using a simple code. ____ But when both groups were interrupted by a phone call or an instant message, the older group matched the younger group in speed and accuracy.
It is difficult to measure the productivity lost by multitaskers. Jonathan Spira, chief analyst at Basex, a business - research firm, estimates that the cost of interruptions to the American economy is nearly $650 billion a year, The estimate is based on surveys with office workers. The surveys conclude that 28 percent of the workers' time was spent on interruptions and recovery time before they returned to their main tasks.

4、Ceasing to Wear Ties
It's useless. It's dirty. It spreads disease. That's why the British Medical Association in the UK recently called for hospital doctors to stop wearing ties.
That leads to another question. Why does anyone wear a tie? Ties serve no purpose. They do not cover any part of your body and keep you warm. They always seem to get covered in food stains. Perhaps that is the purpose of the tie. It lets everyone know what you just ate.
Ties have an odd history. Soldiers from Croatia, in Eastern Europe, served as mercenaries (雇佣军) in various conflicts in the 17th century. They were identified by brightly colored pieces of silk worn around the neck. Known as cravats(围巾), these became a popular fashion item in France and eventually evolved into the tie.
It's an interesting story, but it doesn't tell us why men want to put useless pieces of cloth or silk around their necks. The answer seems to be about identification(身份证明 ). In the 19th-century Britain, ties were used by universities, military regiments (团), sports clubs, schools and gentleman's clubs. Each tie was in a particular set of colors which identified the wearer as a member of that organization. Wearing ties was also the mark of Britain's most powerful classes. That made the tie itself a symbol of power and respect. And that led it to be adopted by a much larger class-the business class.
You cannot wear a tie if you work with machinery, so wearing a tie became a sign that you were a man who used his brain to make a living, rather than his hands. It showed you were serious. It showed you were a professional. It meant that everyone who wanted a job in business had to wear one. It was just impossible to take seriously a man who did not wear a piece of colored silk around his neck. This is how millions of people came to wear ties across the world.
Is there a future for ties? The signs are not promising. Many political leaders, including British Prime Minister Tony Blair, now go without ties.
Paragraph 3 ________.
【单选题】

A.Origin of the tie

B.British ties

C.Uselessness of the tie

D.Old-fashioned ties

E.Role of the tie

F.Signs of a tieless era

正确答案:A

答案解析:第三段的主题句是第一句Ties have an odd history（领带的历史比较奇怪）。接下来该段讲述了领带的由来。最初，领带是一种色彩斑斓的丝带，被东欧的克罗地亚士兵围在脖子上用来识别身份，后来在巴黎它逐渐成为一种时尚并最终演变成今天的领带。A选项Origin of the tie与其意思一致，故A为正确答案。

5、Can you give me a concrete example to support your idea?【单选题】

A.special

B.good

C.real

D.specific

正确答案:D

答案解析:题干大意：你能给我一个具体的例子来支持你的想法吗？句中concrete的意思是“具体的”，同义词是specific，如：In painting art，the most specific theme and image often expresses the most abstract thinking.（在绘画艺术中，最具体的主题和形象所表达的往往是最抽象的思想。）special：特殊的；good:好的；real:真实的。
