【解析】很多青年想時(shí)尚，但不是每個(gè)人都能跟上時(shí)尚潮流的變化。Chloe Murray創(chuàng)辦了“一個(gè)慈善的衣服壁櫥”來(lái)幫助她的同學(xué)。因此告誡我們，首先你需要給孩子提供基本的需要，比如衣服。那么他們將能夠更好地專(zhuān)注于學(xué)習(xí)材料。而不是過(guò)分關(guān)注他們的穿著。

【1】B

根據(jù)上句：很多年輕人想看上去很酷。根據(jù)常識(shí)：但是不是每個(gè)人都能跟上時(shí)尚潮流的變化。故選B。

【2】A

根據(jù)下句：學(xué)校讓她用一個(gè)房間做這個(gè)項(xiàng)目。這說(shuō)明學(xué)校也支持她的想法。故選A。

【3】E

根據(jù)上句：上個(gè)月，慈善的衣服壁櫥，被稱(chēng)作Chloe的壁櫥，開(kāi)放了。因?yàn)槭菫閷W(xué)生而開(kāi)的，所以它充滿(mǎn)了時(shí)髦的女孩和男孩的衣服，以幫助學(xué)生看到最好的衣服。故選E。

【4】G

根據(jù)上文：Students can "buy" these clothes by earning "money" when they tum in their schoolwork on time,make corrections on homework,participate in a school activity or express helpfulness to their peers and teachers. 學(xué)生通過(guò)在學(xué)業(yè)按時(shí)上交作業(yè)，改正作業(yè)，參加一項(xiàng)學(xué)校的活動(dòng)，或者向他們的同學(xué)和老師表示幫助，來(lái)earning "money"從而"buy" these clothes。由此可知G項(xiàng)，Since the first week in March,about 100 items have been "sold" to students.（自從三月的第一周，大約100件衣服已經(jīng)"sold"給學(xué)生）符合題意。

【5】D

根據(jù)下文：然后，他們將能夠更好地專(zhuān)注于學(xué)習(xí)材料，而不是過(guò)分關(guān)注他們的穿著�？芍�，首先你需要給孩子提供基本的需要，比如衣服。此處then是關(guān)鍵詞。故選D。

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，選擇最佳答案。
He met her at a party. She was outstanding; many guys were after her, but nobody paid any attention to him. After the party, he invited her for coffee. She was surprised, so as not to appear rude, she went along.
As they sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything and she felt uncomfortable. Suddenly, he asked the waiter, “Could you please give me some salt? I'd like to put it in my coffee."
They stared at him. He turned red, but when the salt came, he put it in his coffee and drank. Curious, she asked, "Why salt with coffee?" He explained, "When I was a little boy, I lived near the sea. I liked playing on the sea. I could feel it salty, like salty coffee. Now every time I drink it, I think of my childhood and my hometown. I miss it and my parents, who are still there."
She was deeply moved. A man who can admit that he's homesick must love his home and care about his family. He must be responsible. She talked too, about her faraway hometown, her childhood, her family. That was the start to their love story.
They continued to date. She found that he met all her requirements. He was tolerant, kind, warm and careful. And to think she would have missed the catch if not for the salty coffee! So they married and lived happily together. And every time she made coffee for him, she put in some salt, the way he liked it.
After 40 years, he passed away and left her a letter which said:
My dearest, please forgive my life-long lie. Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous that I asked for salt instead of sugar. It was hard for me to ask for a change, so I just went ahead. I never thought that we would hit it off. Many times, I tried to tell you the truth, but I was afraid that it would ruin everything. Sweetheart, I don't exactly like salty coffee. But as it mattered so much to you, I've learnt to enjoy it. Having you with me was my greatest happiness. If I could live a second time, I hope we can be together again, even if it means that I have to drink salty coffee for the rest of my life.
（1）She accepted his invitation for coffee because ________.
A.she fell in love with him
B.she didn't want to be impolite
C.no one paid attention to him
D.no one else was interested in her
（2）Why the man asked for some salt was because ________.

【題目】A cab company in one of Japan’s major cities is introducing silent taxi drivers. Miyako Taxi, which is based in Kyoto, shows the new idea in March. The business is currently operating five “Silence Taxis” across the city.

The cars look like any ordinary taxi，but a notice written on the back of the passenger seat inform passengers that they have entered one of the new silent fleet. Drivers will offer a greeting when their passenger enters the car, and aside from confirming the route they will not engage in small talk. The drivers can indulge in conversation, only if they are spoken to first, and they are also allowed to communicate in emergency situations.

Announcing the idea, Miyako Taxi said: “This service is currently in a trial stage, with the goal of creating an in-car atmosphere that provides the most comfortable ride for passengers through limiting the driver’s speaking.” According to Japan Today, they made the move after hearing reports from passengers that they were fed up being forced to chat with their drivers.

The company will assess the popularity of the trial before deciding whether to expand it and roll it out across more of their drivers.

Language and speaking is at the heart of another issue facing Uber drivers, after lost a High Court Battle to block written tests in London. Drivers applying for a minicab license in the capital will now have to pass the written exam following Uber’s failed challenge against Transport for London (TfL). The company argued it could see up to 33,000 existing drivers lose their licences under the new rule.

The company’s London head, Tom Elvidge: vowed to challenge the rule and said, “We’ve always supported spoken English skills, but writing an essay has nothing to do with communicating with passengers or getting them safely from A to B.”

【1】According to the passage, the “Silent taxis” .

A. has gained wide popularity in Japan.

B. has not operated yet.

C. looks like ordinary taxi.

D. is not safe enough for passengers.

【2】When we are in the “Silent Taxis” .

A. no one can say anything during the driving.

B. drivers are allowed to speak in emergency situations.

C. greeting is not allowed as well.

D. the fare is free if we say nothing during the driving.

【3】What is the purpose of the “Silent Taxis” according to the passage?

A. Creating a more comfortable atmosphere in the taxi for passengers.

B. Ensuring a safer atmosphere in the taxi for passengers.

C. Attracting more passengers to take taxis.

D. Changing the impression of the taxi driver in Japan.

【4】What is the attitude of Tom Elvidge to the “Silent Taxis”?

A. Indifferent.

B. Supportive.

C. Unclear.

D. Negative.
