Many cities have subways and underground public transportation to take locals and tourists alike rapidly around the city.However, there’s something different about riding a London subway.It may not look different, but the historical value of one of England’s most popular forms of transportation is enough to make riding the subway a must when visiting London.With a little under 300 different stations, the subway can take you almost anywhere you need to go.
Riding a London subway, a person from other countries will notice one major difference: in London, people do not look at each other.In fact, eye contact is avoided at all times.That’s not rudeness―people are just too busy to bother looking.
Busy doing what, you ask? Well, they’re certainly not using the time for a moment of quiet thinking.Nor are they reading a book.New technology has replaced quiet habits.Today the only acceptable form of book on the London underground is an e-book.
Apple must earn a fortune from London commuters(使用月票上下班者).Since the launch of the iPhone in 2007, over 40,000―yes, that’s 40,000 “apps” have been designed.
Commuters love them because they are the perfect time-fillers.One “app”, called iShoot, is a game that features tanks.Another one, Tube Exits, tells passengers where to sit on the train to be closest to the exit of their destination.iSteam clouds the iPhone screen when you breathe into the microphone.You can then write in the “steam” on your phone screen.
For those without an iPhone, another Apple product, the iPod, may be the distraction(消遣)of choice.It’s not just teenagers who “plug in” to their music-iPods are a popular way to pass the time for all ages.
And if games, e-books and music aren’t enough to keep you occupied, then perhaps you would prefer a film? The development of palm DVD technology means many commuters watch their favorite TV shows or films on the way to work.With all these distractions, it’s amazing that people still remember to get off the train.

Holiday Inns and McDonald’s. both saw unmatched growth in the 1960s. Their growth opened another direct business operation—franchising.
These operations have the same general pattern. The franchisor, the parent company, first establishes a successful retail business. As it expands, it sees a profit potential in offering others the right to open similar business under its name. The parent company’s methods and means of identification with consumers are included in this right. The parent company supplies skill, and may build and rent stores to franchisees. For these advantages the franchisee pays the franchisor a considerable fee. However, some of the advantages and disadvantages are different.
By extending a “proven” marketing method, a parent can profit in several ways. First, the franchisee’s purchase price gives the parent an immediate return on the plan. Then the sale of supplies to the franchisee provides a continuing source of profits. As new businesses are added and the company’s reputation spreads, the values of the franchise increases and sales of franchises become easier. The snowballing effect can be dramatic. Such growth, too, bring into play the economies of scale. Regional or national advertising that might be financially impossible for a franchisor with 20 franchises could be profitable for one with 40.
The parent, then, finds immediate gains from the opportunity to expand markets on the basis of reputation alone, without having to put up capital or take the risk of owning retail stores. Added to this advantage is a less obvious but material one, Skilled, responsible retail managers are rare. People who invest their capital in franchises, though, probably come closer to the ideal than do paid managers. In fact, the franchisee is an independent store operator working for the franchisor, but without an independent’s freedom to drop supplies at will. Of course the factory’s costs of selling supplies are less. But also certainly the franchisee buying goods that have had broad consumer acceptance will not casually change supplies, even when the contract permits. If the hamburger is not what the customer expected, they may not return. Having paid for the goodwill, the franchisee won’t thoughtlessly destroy it.
【小題1】 Franchising refers to a business operation in which a successful parent company          .

A.sells name-brand goods to a private investor
B.rents proven ideas and techniques for investment
C.sells the right, the guidance to a business under its name
D.takes no advertising responsibility for individual investors
【小題2】. The advantages of franchising to the parent company are all the following EXCEPT      .
A.a(chǎn)n immediate investment return
B.the profit from the sale of supplies
C.the ownership of additional retail stores
D.the possibility of profitable advertising
【小題3】 The passage mainly tells the reader          .
A.the advantages and disadvantages of franchising
B.the benefits of franchising to the franchisor
C.the unmatched economic growth in the 1960’s
D.some regional and national business operation
【小題4】. What will the author probably discuss after the last paragraph?
A.More advantages of franchising.
B.Negative aspects related to franchising.
C.The standard of consumer acceptance.
D.Risks of investment besides franchising

It was when I was attending high school that I first read Asimov’s stories. At the time, a few science fiction magazines began to introduce this author, and to translate a few pieces from his “Robot Series”. Of Asimov’s works, the one that left the deepest impression on me was Pebble in the Sky. This novel directly influenced my early science fiction writing. Asimov was one of the leading writers of western science fiction’s Golden Age, so although his writing may not have a direct influence on writers of today, his underlying (潛在的) influence on many levels is undeniable — the famous Three Laws of Robotics, and many classic writing techniques, for example. Asimov’s novels are marked by a fully integrated (完整的) logical system, and his stories are a pleasure to read. This is the reason his novels still attract readers today. Naturally, western science fiction has few people these days who follow Asimov’s creative methods. But still the majority of Chinese science fiction readers would rather read the classic works of Asimov. Compared with the “Robot Series”, Asimov’s “Foundation Series” is a little less well-known in China. In fact, the “Foundation Series” creates an entire world, even grander than that of the “Robot Series”; this science fiction had a direct influence on later western science fiction, the most famous example being Star Wars.
【小題1】We learn from the passage that the writer is probably a _________.

A.science fiction writerB.science fiction publisher
C.high school studentD.science fiction fan
【小題2】The purpose of the passage is to _________.
A.compare Asimov with other science fiction writers
B.a(chǎn)dvise people to read Asimov’s stories
C.give some comments on Asimov’s influence
D.explain why Asimov is popular in China
【小題3】According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.Asimov is criticized by today’s science fiction writers.
B.Asimov still has many readers in China.
C.Asimov wrote Star Wars in his later life.
D.Asimov’s writing techniques are still widely used.
【小題4】In the writer’s opinion, Asimov’s “Foundation Series” _________.
A.was not as successful as his “Robot Series”
B.is better known to readers than his “Robot Series”
C.was more logically organized than his “Robot Series”
D.was written better than his “Robot Series” in some ways

B
As a kid, I can remember going to the supermarket and grabbing eggs off the shelf. I would run them home to my mother because they were usually going into a delicious cake. Times have changed. Cage-free? Organic? Brown? White? Omega-3s(一種脂肪酸)?Help! Here are some tips to help you figure out which eggs you should be eating.
Brown or white? In fact, color is simply a sign of the breed of hen. Find the freshest egg with the most flavor and let color be a secondary concern.
Extra Omega-3s? Omega-3 eggs come from a hen whose diet has added flaxseed (亞麻籽),which produces an egg containing an average of 225 mg of Omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E. The countless health benefits for humans make these eggs an attractive purchase. My opinion? Eat a piece of fresh fish and get a pure pill of Omega-3s. Let eggs be eggs.
Does your egg need exercise? Free-range eggs are from hens raised without the limit of a cage, though they may or may not have spent much time outdoors. Organic eggs are from hens whose food must meet organic standards. These hens must be raised humanly, and they must be given time to the outdoors. Hey, happier hens do lay tastier eggs.
Does local make a difference? Nothing is better than local eggs. They may have a feather or two stuck to them or be a little imperfect in shape and may or may not be certified organic; however, they have one quality. I know exactly where my food came from and how it came into being! In some cases I can even ask the farmer when the eggs were laid and what they were fed.
55.What’s the best title for this passage?
A.Which Eggs Should You Be Eating?       B.Eggs Are Changing as Times Are Changing
C.Which Kind of Egg Is the Best?           D. The First Concern When Choosing Eggs
56. What does the author think of extra Omega-3s eggs?
A.They are a good choice for people to buy.   
B.They contain fewer Omega-3s than fresh fish.
C.They have the highest content of pure Omega-3s.
D.They are not the best source of Omega-3s.
57. The underlined word “free-range” probably means “________ ”
A.wild        B.cage-free         C.organic        D.Omega-3-free
58.According to the passage, which of the following has nothing to do with an egg’s quality?
A.The egg’s color.                         B.The hen’s exercise.  
C.The hen’s living conditions.                D.The hen’s food.
