　　A

　　The new high-speed railway line between Urumqi，capital of the Xinjiang Uygur self-governing region，and Lanzhou，capital of Gansu province，has cut train travel time by half to less than 12 hours．

　　The dramatic improvement will benefit many families planning reunions for Spring Festival．

　　“For the first time，I feel home is not that far away after all，”said Liang Shaofu as he boarded a high-speed train in Urumqi with six members of his family．

　　The 35-year-old left Lanzhou to set up a dry fruit business in Xinjiang eight years ago，and he has now settled in Urumqi．

　　The 1,776-km line，which passes through Qinghai province and is the country’s first

　　high-speed railway to be built in a high-altitude region，came into service on Dec 26．

　　“We normally drive home for Spring Festival to avoid the difficulties of buying seven train tickets for the whole family during the peak season，”Liang said．“Driving can be very tiring and dangerous sometimes，so one year we even decided not to go back to Lanzhou simply to avoid the trip．”

　　More than 600，000 passengers traveled on the line during its first month，and the Urumqi Railway Bureau said the introduction of high-speed services will ease transport pressure during the Spring Festival peak season．

　　The existing usual railway line could no longer support Xinjiang’s development．All

　　passenger trains will gradually shift to the new link，leaving the old one to be used for goods．As a result，Xinjiang’s annual goods ability could reach 200 million metric tons from the current 70 million．

　　The line passes through areas that experience high winds，and it also crosses parts of the

　　deserted Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the bone-dry sands of the Gobi Desert．

　　The project could help China to promote its high-speed railway technology abroad，said Ma Xi zhang，director of the Lanzhou-Xinjiang railway project’s_management department in Xinjiang.

　　21．How long did it take to go from Urumqi to Lanzhou by the usual train before?

　　A．about 12 hours．

　　B．About 6 hours．

　　C．About 18 hours．

　　D．About 24 hours．

　　22．What’s the main advantage of the new high-speed railway?

　　A．It takes more time to go to Urumqi to Lanzhou．

　　B．It will be more convenient for people all over the country to Xinjiang．

　　C．All the people in Lanzhou can return home on festivals．

　　D．It helps to improve Xinjiang’s development．

　　23．From the passage we can learn________.

　　A．Xinjiang’s annual goods ability can increase nearly four times

　　B．the new railway technology may help more railway lines to be built abroad

　　C．the high-speed railway lines can’t be built across the bone-dry sands

　　D．the old railway lines can only carry goods now

　　24．Which of the following is true according to the passage?

　　A．The new high-speed railway line is good for all people to go home．

　　B．The new high-speed railway line benefits businessmen to carry goods．

　　C．Taking the new train is safer than driving home from Urumqi to Lanzhou．

　　D．Businessmen seldom went home for Spring Festival before．

　　It was reported last week that developers could take photos from Apple mobile and Google Android devices without the phone owners knowing that the images were being taken. In Apple’s case, developers can also obtain the location information for each photo.

　　Senator(参议员) Charles Schumer said in a telephone interview that his office had spoken with officials at both Apple and Google on Monday.

　　“We asked them if they could find a way on their own to prevent Apple from having access to private information,” Mr. Schumer said. “They were friendly and open to the idea that this ought to be changed.”

　　On Sunday, Mr. Schumer said that he planned to send a letter to the Federal Trade Commission asking the agency to investigate Apple and Google after the privacy concerns came to light. Claudia Bourne Farrell, an F.T.C. spokeswoman, said the agency had received the letter but she could not comment further.

　　“It worries people to think that one’s personal photos, address book, and who knows what else can be obtained and even posted online without permission,” Mr. Schumer wrote in his letter to the F. T.C. “If the technology exists to open the door to this kind of privacy invasion, then surely technology exists to close it, and that’s exactly what must happen.”

　　Mr. Schumer said if Apple and Google could not come to an agreement to fix the problem, then he would be forced to take the issue further.

　　He said other companies had been willing to work with his office to fix issues. “I’m optimistic that we can get this changed without any regulation,” he said. “If it’s not changed, then we’ll turn to the F.T.C., and if that doesn’t work then we’ll consider legislative approach.”

　　The F.T.C. has warned companies to try to be more vigilant(警醒的) in their efforts to protect consumers when it comes to privacy.

　　29. The senators spoke with officials at both Apple and Google_______.

　　A. to urge them not to invade consumers’ privacy.

　　B. to discuss whether it is illegal to have access to private information.

　　C. to stop them from developing the technology of taking photos.

　　D. to keep them from obtaining the location information for each photo.

　　30. Which of the following statements is True?

　　A. Privacy invasion from Apple has existed for a long time.

　　B. Mr. Schumer takes the privacy concerns caused by Apple and Google seriously.

　　C. Privacy invasion from Google has existed for a long time.

　　D. Apple and Google have decided to make a change.

　　31.Mr. Schumer’s letter to the F.T.C. mainly shows that the technology to open the door to privacy invasion_______.

　　A. causes privacy invasion to happen frequently.?????????

　　B. can be used if permitted.

　　Many people believe Henry Ford invented the automobile (汽车). But Henry Ford did not start to build his first car until 1896. That was eleven years after two Germans developed the world's first automobile. Many people believe Henry Ford invented the production line that moved a car's parts to the worker, instead of making the worker move to the parts. That is not true, either. Many factory owners used methods of this kind before Ford. What Henry Ford did was to use other people's ideas and make them better. And he made the whole factory a moving production line.

　　In the early days of the automobile, almost every car maker raced his cars. It was the best way of gaining public notice. Henry Ford decided to build a racing car. Ford's most famous race was his first one. It was also the last race in which he drove the car himself.

　　The race was in 1901, at a field near Detroit. All of the most famous cars had entered, but only two were left: the Winton and Ford's. The Winton was famous for its speed. Most people thought the race was over before it began.
