28、tures are taken automatically, someone still has to do all the paperwork and send out fines. Now a British company called EEV has come up with a computerized video system that can do it all.They suggest that all license plates (车牌照) should have a bar code as well as the usual number. The bar codes a
29、re just a group of lines like those you see on the packages of things you buy. EEVs high-speed video camera system can read a bar code on a license plate even if the car is driving over 100 miles per hour. The computer controlling the system could then use the information from the bar code to find o
30、ut the name and address of the driver using the cars records. It can then print out the fine and send it to the owner of the car. The inventors also suggest that the system can also watch traffic to help find stolen cars.The new electronic system could be watching everyone that passes the cameras! B
31、ecause of this, many people find the idea that “big brother is watching you” is more of a worry than a few motorists getting away with driving too fast. Besides, some people will be very unhappy to realize that this new system can tell the police where a particular car has been.1. B According to thi
32、s passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. The camera in the past cant take pictures of cars now as they speed along 第 6 页highways.B. The camera in the past can print out fines.C. The camera in the past can send out fines automatically.D. The camera in the past can catch cars breaking traffic role
33、s.2. A The new computerized video system can _.A. find stolen carsB. read a bar code on a license plateC. find out the name and address of the driver who drives too fastD. all of the above3. B Whats peoples attitude to the newly invented system for motoring?A. People all agree with the newly invente
34、d system.B. People object to the newly invented system totally.C. Some people worry about the newly invented system.D. It is not mentioned in this article.(B)Animals cannot be considered equal to human beings because they do not have the same intelligence.There are physical acts that animals share w
35、ith people, but animals perform these acts instinctively (本能地); Whereas, human beings normally need to learn them.One instance of those is the way animals care for their young. A mother cat will instinctively begin licking the baby kittens as soon as they are born. The human mother has fewer instinc
36、ts about her baby and often needs to turn to others, such as her own mother, a friend, or a neighbor to learn how to care for a baby. Some mothers are so anxious that they spend their entire pregnancy (妊娠期) reading books on the subject of caring for infants. Therefore, sales of books on pregnancy an
37、d care for children are always popular in urban bookstores.Other differences between animals and people are in social organization. People build houses and live in family groups, tribes, villages, towns or large cities. However, many animals, such as bears, never live in groups, but only contact oth
38、er animals of the same kind to mate. Another difference is that animals live by the laws of nature, often killing other smaller animals for food. They have no feelings about killing even weaker animals of their own kind because in the world of nature, there is constant competition between animals, a
39、nd only the strongest tend to survive. On the other hand, human beings apply their intelligence to creating societies and laws to prevent the act of killing other people.第 7 页4. A Animals share some physical acts with people _.A. and both animals and people perform these acts by instinctB. but anima
40、ls perform these acts by instinct while people learn themC. but people perform these acts by instinct while animals learn themD. and both animals and people learn them5.

41、ious to know what their babies will be likeC. mothers dont have many instincts about how to care for their babiesD. mothers have a lot of such books to choose from6.

42、g policeman, Constable Rider, walked more quickly than usual because of the cold, but he did not consciously neglect any part of his work. His torch flashed on doorways and windows as he looked for anything suspicious, and when he thought that something was unusual, he went to try the door and windo
43、w, probably unheard by the people sleeping in the room just above his head. As he turned a corner, he heard a slight rustling sound it might be a cat, and it could even be a dog, although few dogs wandered about at night. It might be a pair of lovers, or it might be anything. But Rider saw nothing.A
44、 cat then? Usually if you disturbed a cat, it jumped and ran off, and you heard or noticed something else. By doing a lot of night work, you learned to notice these things, but now all Rider noticed was the silence which had followed the rustling sound. So he acted cautiously. He did not flash his t
45、orch about the houses near the comer but walked on, and, a little away from the spot where he had heard the sound, stopped and bent his head, as if he was lighting a cigarette. A policeman who stopped to light a cigarette seemed the most unsuspicious policeman in the world.There was still no sound.
46、There were bushes in the garden of the house where Rider had first heard it, and he knew that a man could hide there out of sight. But if he went back, it would warn any such man. So instead he stood and shone his torch at the nearest window, and as if he had noticed something unusual, he walked tow
47、ards it and opened the wooden gate, which made no sound at all. He reached the entrance and shone the torch on the keyhole of the front door. As he did so, the rustle came again, this time much more softly. He looked round 第 8 页quickly.7. A What was Constable Rider doing on this very cold evening?A. Looking for anything out of the ordinary.B. Looking for something that had been lost.C. Being careful not to disturb people.D. Being careless in carrying out his duties.8. A When he heard the rustling sound, he _.A. thought that it was probably not caused by a dogB. knew that he had disturbed
