16.It is not a good idea to interrupt the actor Richard Griffiths in the middle of a play.During the past year he has stopped performances at the National Theatre when mobile phones have gone off,and he threw one member of the audience out of a West End play for failing to switch off his phone.
So when a mobile rang out for the third time during his performance as Hector,a teacher,in Alan Bennett's The History Boys at the Broadhurst Theatre in New York,he spoke angrily:"I am not going to compete with these electronic devices".
Griffiths'actions led a debate in the UK theatre world over whether phones should be forbidden by law from British theatres,too.Actors are already asking the government to legalise (使合法化) the use of electronic screening (屏蔽) devices to block mobile phone signals from theatres.
Technology companies market"blocking"devices that send out a high-powered signal on the same frequency (頻率) as a mobile phone,occupying all the available spectrums (頻譜).
But these are forbidden in many countries because they might prevent emergency calls from being made.
Rosemary Squire,president of the Society of West End Theatre and co-founder of the Ambassador Theatre Group,which operates 12West End theatres,said,"Phones are one of the biggest operational problems theatres face.We should look for equipment that could block phones or make a London-wide theatre rule."
Nick Allott,the managing director of Sir Cameron Mackintosh's theatre group,said,"We would all welcome some ways of preventing ringing phones,but doctors and emergency workers need to be paged in a theatre and we mustn't prevent that."

47.The first two paragraphs are written toC.
A.tell us why Griffiths was angry
B.blame Griffiths for his bad behavior
C.introduce the topic the passage will talk about
D.a(chǎn)dvise us to turn off the mobile phones in public places
48.According to the passage,"blocking"devicesB.
A.have the same functions as mobile phones
B.prevent the mobile phones being used properly
C.cause the biggest problem theatres have to face
D.help make emergency calls
49.The underlined word"paged"in the last paragraph can be replaced byC.
A.prevented   
B.protected    
C.called      
D.forbidden
50.What will probably be talked about following the last paragraph?C
A.Griffiths'next performance in theatres.
B.The ways to solve the problem the public places face.
C.The opinions the public have about the problem.
D.The damage mobile phones result in.

分析 本文屬于記敘文閱讀,作者通過這篇文章向我們介紹了人們是否應(yīng)該在劇院中使用手機(jī)這個問題,一些人認(rèn)為不應(yīng)該在劇院中使用手機(jī),劇院應(yīng)該使用一些屏蔽設(shè)備來防止人們使用手機(jī),但是有些人認(rèn)為使用手機(jī)是不可避免的,因?yàn)槿绻t(yī)生或急救人員在劇院中有時是必須要打電話的.

解答 47.C  推理判斷題,通讀全文可知本文主要向我們介紹了我們經(jīng)常使用的電子設(shè)備--手機(jī),而前兩段的目的是為了引出本文的話題以及主要內(nèi)容,從理查德•格利菲斯對于手機(jī)的態(tài)度來展開下文,故選C.
48.B  細(xì)節(jié)理解題,根據(jù)第三段Actors are already asking the government to legalise (使合法化) the use of electronic screening (屏蔽) devices to block mobile phone signals from theatres.可知"blocking"devices是指屏蔽手機(jī)信號,使手機(jī)不能正常使用,故選B.
49.C  詞義猜測題,根據(jù)最后一段"We would all welcome some ways of preventing ringing phones,but doctors and emergency workers need to be paged in a theatre and we mustn't prevent that."可知我們在一些方面都希望能防止手機(jī)鈴聲響,但是有時醫(yī)生和急救人員在劇院中打電話是不能避免的,根據(jù)文中語意可知此處"paged"可替換為called,故選C.
50.C  推理判斷題,根據(jù)最后一段Nick Allott,the managing director of Sir Cameron Mackintosh's theatre group,said,"We would all welcome some ways of preventing ringing phones,but doctors and emergency workers need to be paged in a theatre and we mustn't prevent that."可知這里說明了劇院總經(jīng)理卡麥隆•麥金托什爵士對于在劇院中使用手機(jī)的看法,由此推知最后一段應(yīng)該講述公眾對這個問題的看法,故選C.

點(diǎn)評 考查學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力.做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進(jìn)行比較,再做出正確選擇.在做推理判斷題時不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實(shí),要根據(jù)文章事實(shí)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.

7.I got tired of living the life that everybody told me I"should"be living,so one day I decided to start living life in my own ways.Frustrated(挫敗)with my job,I came home,put on my shoes,and just started running.It felt so good to be free.That first day I ended up running 30 miles without stopping.Yes,I had rediscovered my old passion ( 酷愛的事物)-and it felt so good that I set a goal to support myself and my family from my running alone.

I completed that goal one year ago,and it felt great!But for me,life is not all about achieving goals.Sure,it feels good to succeed,but the greatest reward for me was learning more about myself and what I was able to do.
