“Just take a deep breath.” “Don’t think about it.” “You’re more likely to die in a car wreck on the way to the airport than you are in a plane crash.” These are just some words given to people with a fear of flying. But as Tom Cruise, playing Lt. Daniel Kaffee in the movie A Few Good Men, said, “I get sick when I fly because I’m afraid of crashing into a large mountain. I don’t think Daniel will help.”
But there’s a new application that just may. Today, the VALK Foundation, a Dutch group that’s a partnership between KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and the University of Leiden, launches the app in the US. The VALK Foundation was one of the first centers for research and fear-of-flying treatment in the world and is the organizer of three world conferences on fear of flying.The foundation said the app, called Flight App VALK, is the first scientifically-developed, web-based treatment for people who suffer from mild to moderate fear of flying.
“The fear of flying application we have created aims to transfer all of the knowledge we have developed through our program into a mobile application that will help ease travelers’ fears,” said Dr. Lucas van Gerwen, director of the VALK Foundation. Dr. van Gerwen is also a psychologist and professional pilot with more than 30 years experience.
The foundation said up to 30% of adults are fearful fliers. The Flight App is designed to help relax passengers before and during flights by educating users about flight safety and turbulence. It explains the sounds and sensations they can expect during departure, flight and landing. And, if a passenger’s flight stress reaches a panic level, they press a special panic button which provides audio and written information to help decrease stress levels. Most importantly, the Flight App can be used during the flight in the airplane mode. Once downloaded, the program does not require Internet connection in the air.
小題1:By saying the words at the beginning of the passage, people are expected to ______.
A．decrease their fear of flying
B．get rid of their doubt about plane
C．have a good time on their flight journey
D．use some medicine to cure their fear of flying
小題2:Flight App VALK is aimed to ______.

A．is a group focusing on psychology on the flight
B．was the first center to do research into fear of flying
C．organize the world conferences on fear of flying annually
D．focuses on researching and offering treatment on fear of flying

In recent years, the black bear population in the US has risen. Forests once cleared for farming have started to grow back and black bears have returned to them. But the bears are finding that their forest habitat has changed. Instead of thick forests covering thousands of acres, bears now have neighbors nearby. Roads, homes, schools, and shopping centers have been built at the edge of their forest home. And with humans and bears trying to share the same space, problems arise.
Black bears usually prefer to avoid people, but their nose may lead them into trouble. Their normal diet includes nuts, insects, and plants. But given the opportunity, they will gladly help themselves to whatever they can find.
With the great sense of smell, the bears can sniff out a tasty treat 2 or 3 miles away. Food left out in a park or backyard is an invitation to dinner. And while raiding (劫掠) a cooler, bird feeder (喂鳥器), trash can, car, or even a home, they can do a lot of damage. When that happens, people get angry. If another solution doesn’t immediately appear, they often want the bears killed.
Bear Aware, Bear Wise, and Bear Smart are trying to keep that from happening. They want people to respect bears, not fear them, and are suggesting ways to reduce the chances of bears stopping by for a snack. They’re convincing (使相信) people that by following some simple steps, it’s possible to live peacefully with our wild neighbors.
小題1:More black bears have appeared in the US because__________.
A．farmers have grown more food
B．forests have increased in the US
C．people stopped killing black bears
D．roads were built nearer to the forests

Zhang Lili, a 29-year-old middle school teacher at the No 19 middle school in the city of Jiamusi in Northeast China’s Heilongjiang province was crossing the road just outside the school’s gate when a school bus suddenly came rushing toward nearby students at 8:38 pm on May 8, 2012.

Virginia is set to begin enforcing the toughest drunken-driving punishment, one that will require thousands of first-time offenders—whether they were highly drunk or slightly over the limit—to install in their cars blood- alcohol testing devices that can lock the ignition. The devices work like this—A driver must blow into a blood alcohol device linked to the car’s ignition. If the result is higher than the legal limit, the car will not start. The device also requires random “rolling retests” once the driver is on the road.
Virginia’s current law requires only repeated offenders or those with a blood alcohol level of 0.15 or higher to have an ignition interlock device in their cars.
The new law, which takes effect in July, will roughly increase the number of people required to use ignition interlock devices four times, and offenders will have to pay about $ 480 for a typical six-month installation.
The measure has caused a debate between groups battling drunken driving and those representing offenders. Such groups as Mother Against Drunken Driving and The Washington Regional Alcohol Program say that Virginia’s 274 alcohol-related road deaths and more than 5,500 injuries in 2010 remained unacceptably high despite years of cracking down on drunken driving. Ignition interlock devices, they say, reduce repeat offenses. But some public defenders and lawyers argue that the devices are too severe a punishment for offenders at the legal blood alcohol limit 0.08, and that the court system will be burdened by more cases going to trial and lower-income drivers will be affected by the fees.
Del. Sal R. Iaquinto, who sponsored the bill, had a simple reply for concerns about the costs of the interlock devises: “How much does a life cost?” “Blowing into a tube for six months, you will remember that,” Iaquinto said, “And you’re not likely to offend again.”
小題1:The underlined word “ignition” in Paragraph 1probably refers to the part in a car where ___________.
A．the alarm goes offB．the engine startsC．the door opensD．the car is fueled
小題2:Who are required to install the blood alcohol devices according to the current law?
A．The first time drunken-driving offenders.
B．The drivers who are not able to pay offence fees.
C．The repeat drunken-driving offenders.
D．Drivers whose blood alcohol level is below 0.15.
小題3:The reason why some defenders and lawyers oppose the new law is that ____________.
A．fewer cases go to trial
B．lower-income drivers will not afford to drink again
C．interlock devices increase repeat offenses
D．the devices are too severe a punishment for offenders
小題4:The debate aroused by the measure implies that ___________.
A．prevention is better than cureB．no law is absolutely perfect
C．punishment is the key to allD．justice has long arms
小題5:What is Del. Sal R. Iaquinto’s attitude towards the new law?
A．Negative.B．Indifferent.C．flexible.D．workable.

Tens of thousands of smartphone applications are running ads from the overwhelming(勢不可擋的) advertising networks that change smartphone settings and copy people’s contact information without permission.
Aggressive ad networks can disguise（假扮） ads as text message notifications (通告), and sometimes change browser settings and bookmarks. Often, the ads will upload your contacts list to the ad network’s servers--- information that the ad network can then sell to marketers.
Sounds scary? It’s not a giant problem yet, but it’s a growing one. As many as 5% of free mobile apps use an “aggressive” ad network to make money, according to Lookout, a San Francisco-based mobile security company. PhoneLiving was one of the most popular app developers to use these kinds of ad networks; their dozens of talking animal apps have been downloaded several million times. Later, PhoneLiving says it has mended its ways. The company admittedusing invasive techniques to make money from its apps, but said it dropped those methods at the start of July because of bad reviews and declining downloads.
The most popular type of apps that use aggressive ad networks are “Personalisation” apps, which include wallpapers. Comic and entertainment apps are also among the most likely to have rogue(兇猛的) ad networks running behind the scenes. Like aggressive pop-ups on PCs, the bad software isn’t easy to get rid of. Though the damage can typically be removed by deleting the app, it can be hard to tell which app is causing the problems.
When developers create free mobile apps, they usually make money through ads displayed within the app. App makers don’t usually tell people which ad network they are using, which makes it hard to avoid the known offenders. The best defense is to read reviews and avoid downloading apps that have attracted many complaints.
小題1:What is an example of bad behavior by the annoying mobile ads?
A．They change browser settings and bookmarks.
B．They change people’s calendar settings.
C．They send scam text messages occasionally.
D．They download free versions of games.
小題2:What do we know about PhoneLiving?
A．Its operation model is against the will of netizens.
B．It was forced to admit its bad behavior.
C．It has changed its business model rapidly.
D．Its relationship with Lookout may break up.
小題3:Why is the bad software hard to get rid of?
A．The software runs behind the scenes.
B．The app is very hard to delete.
C．It is difficult to find the problem app.
D．The network antivirus is out of date.
小題4:What does the underlined word, “ invasive”, mean in the third paragraph?
A．innovative B．positive C．flexible D．a(chǎn)ggressive
小題5:What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Mobile ads can attack your phone and steal your contacts.
B．Mobile ads have become popular in recent years.
C．Smartphones have been damaged by mobile ads.
D．You may download some aggressive apps unconsciously.
