当你离开房间的时候，是不是忘记关灯和加热器了？在2040年，这种担心将不会有关系。他们会自动关掉并在你回来的时候再自动开启。感应器会检测到人的存在并把系统启动，而当人离开的时候它又将把系统关掉。
感应器通过家庭中枢电脑工作，他们要做的并不仅仅为你开灯关灯。他们将检测出有毛病的电器、管道或者电闸并加以隔离以防伤害到任何人；并警告你他们需要修理了。感应器将检测火灾情况，如果你不在家，电脑将会打电话给消防队。假设检测到有人闯入，感应器就会报警。这将不困难，因为外门的锁将是电子性质的。用你的个人卡将可以打开那些锁，这一个人卡是你用来消费，购物的那张卡，可能用到一个只有你知道的数码。
这一电脑不仅仅充当消防人员和警察的角色。它将是个艺人，而且生活中的大部分娱乐将直接来到你的家中。但是，到2040年娱乐将意味着更多的东西。一方面，你将会积极主动地参与而不仅仅是观看…

模拟试题二
Part Ⅰ Reading Comprehension (30%)
Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
Passage 1
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:
Every human being, no matter what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is how to dispose of it. But the designers of the Johnstown campus of the University of Pittsburgh set themselves the opposite problem—how to collect body heat. They have designed a collection system which utilizes not only body heat, but the heat given off by such objects as light bubs and refrigerators as well. The system works so well that no conventional fuel is needed to make the campus’s six buildings comfortable.
Some parts of most modern buildings—theaters and offices as well as classrooms are more than amply heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air-conditioned even in winter. The technique of saving heat and redistributing it is called “heat recovery.” A few modern buildings recover heat, but the University’s system is the first to recover heat from some buildings and re-use it in others.
Along the way, pitt has learned a great deal about some of its heat producers. The harder a student studies, the more heat his body gives off. (76) Male students emit more heat than female students, and the larger a student, the more heat he produces. It is tempting to conclude that the hottest prospect for the Johnstown campus would be a hardworking, overweight male genius.
1. Until recently, body heat has caused problems because it ______. A. was difficult to collect B. came in a variety of forms C. was difficult to get rid of
D. tended to be absorbed by physical objects
2. Which of the following is true of the heating system of the Johnstown campus? A. The heat is supplied by human bodies only.
B. The heat is supplied by both human bodies and other heatemitting objects. C. The heat is supplied by both human bodies and conventional fuel.
D. The heat is supplied by human bodies, other heatemitting objects, and conventional fuel.
3.The phrase “even in winter” (in line 8) most nearly means ______. A. if the winter is especially warm
B. during all of the year except the winter C. in the winter as well as in other seasons D. during the evenings in the winter
4. The phrase “heat recovery” refers to a ______. A. method of concealing the source of heat B. special form of air conditioning C. supplementary hot water system D. way of reclaiming and re-using heat
5. According to the passage which of the following would produce the LEAST amount of heat?
A. A fat female who studies hard. B. A thin female who does not study. C. A fat male who does not study. D. A thin male who studies hard.
Passage 2
(77) Heredity(遗传) is not the only thing that influences our color. Where we live and how we live after we are born are important too. For instance, our genes influence how fat or thin we are. But our weight depends mainly upon how much we eat and how much exercise we get. In the same way, our skin color depends to a large extent upon how much sunshine we get.
When summer arrives and light-colored people go to the beaches, some will tan darkly, some will tan lightly and few will not tan at all. Each one has inherited a different ability to tan, but the differences do not appear until the conditions are right. An outdoor man will soon become pale if he changes to an indoor job, while a desk clerk will take on tan after a short vacation in the sun.
Sometimes people decide that being tanned is better than being pale. Sometimes they decide the opposite.
Centuries ago, most of the people in Europe were peasants and they had to work in the fields all day. Noblemen, on the other hand, did not have to work. They stayed indoors and remained pale. You could always tell a nobleman from a peasant because a peasant had a tan. As a result, a shin so pale that the veins (血管) showed was considered a mark of great beauty.
During the Industrial Revolution things changed. Farmers left their fields and went to work in factories, mines and mills. Working for long hours in dimly-lit factories and mines
made their skins pale. (78) Wealthy people, however, could afford to travel so sunny countries. They had the leisure to lie around on the beaches and get tan. Having a tan became a sign of wealth.
In Western Europe and North America pale skin is no longer desirable. Instead of bleaching themselves white with lemon juice, many women spend their time under a sun-lamp. The desire for a quick tan has led to the invention of pills and lotions（涂剂）that darken the skin artificially without exposure to sunlight. These pills and lotions can be bought by anyone at any drugstore. A rich man can spend hundreds of dollars on a vacation in the sunny West Indies and get his suntan there. But his lowest-paid clerk can have what looks like the same tan out of a bottle for a few cents.
6.Besides genes, our skin color has much to do with __________.
A. exercise B. weight C. food D. sunshine
7.When summer comes and the light-colored people go to the beaches, _____.
A. all of them will tan darkly B. few of them will tan darkly

A. pale skin B. light-colored skin C. dark-colored skin D. a suntan
9.During the Industrial Revolution people began to like to have a tan because it was a sign of _______.
A. good health B. great strength C. wealth D. youth
10.Pills and lotions have been invented in Western Europe and North America _______.
A. to protect people from sunburn B. to make people look wealthy C. to smooth people’s skin D. to help people to have a quick tan
