[单选题]The first true piece of sports equipment that man invented was the ball.

　　In ancient Egypt, as everywhere, pitching stones was a favorite children's game.But a badly thrown rock could hurt a child.Looking for something less dangerous to throw, the Egyptians made what were probably the first balls.

　　At first, balls were made of grass or leaves held together by vines.Later they were made of piece of animal skin sewed together and stuffed with feathers or hay.

　　Even though the Egyptians were warlike, they found time for peaceful games.Before long they had developed a number of ball games, each with its own set of rules.Perhaps they played ball more for instruction than for fun.Ball playing was thought of mainly as a way to teach young men the speed and skill they would need for war.

　　The ball was probably invented because _____.

　　Athrowing stones often caused injuries

　　Bthrowing stones was not fun

　　Cgames with stones did not have rules

　　Drocks were too heavy to throw

[单选题]The year 2000 will bring big changes in communication.Cell phones will be small enough to carry in your pocket.Videophones will let you see the person you are talking to on the phone.Tiny hand size computers will know your favorite subjects.The Internet and email will be everywhere. Technologists believe 2000 will be the year of video messaging.You will be able to see whom you're talking to.

　　Also in the near future small wireless boxes will pick up information from satellites.In 5 years, computers won't need to be connected through wires.

　　All of this will be good for rural areas and countries that don't have cable or telephone now.

　　In 20 years you may only need to think about something and the computer will do it.

　　Constance Hale is the author of Sin and Syntax, "I believe that email has been an incredible boon to communication.People are writing today where they would have been telephoning yesterday.So people are engaging with words more than they have for the last couple generations."

　　If people use email and the Internet more, it could make people better readers and writers.Some people think the most important part of communication is to make people understand each other better.Will technology make that easier?

　　The translator also comes in handy in medical emergencies.Tam Dinh says, "Where people are injured it's always important to get as much information as quickly as possible."

　　Bob Parks is an Associate Editor of Wired Magazine, "Bob's morning begins at about 6:45 am.and Bob is kind of mad, because Bob usually gets up at around 7:15 and likes to cut it close with his morning commute, but I look at my radio and it says that there's a traffic jam on 101 South and I'm gonna need an extra 1/2 hour.And so my radio has got a net connection, wireless net connection as well as a good old power cord to the wall and it has received notice that there's a traffic jam and it has calculated an extra 1/2 hour commute time."

　　Some day everything may be connected to the Internet.Your refrigerator will add milk to your Internet grocery list when the date on the carton has passed.Light bulbs will be ordered before they burn out.

　　It's fun to try to guess the future.Usually the predictions are wrong.The one thing we know for sure is that we can't imagine how technology will change.

　　In which case mentioned in the passage would an automatic language translator be helpful?

　　AA medical emergence

　　BPolice action

　　CTraveling

　　DAll of the above

　　参考答案：A

[单选题]

　　Eating an apple a day does n" t keep the doctor away, but it does reduce the amount of trips you make to the drug store per year. That " s according to a new study that investigates whether there" s any truth in the old saying.

　　A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis, of the University of Michigan School of Nursing,asked 8,399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health. A total of 753 were apple eaters, consuming at least 149g of raw apple per day. The remaining 7,646 were classed as non-apple eaters. When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug store per year,the apple eaters were found to be 27% less likely to visit the druggist for drugs.

　　Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption, though. "Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. However, the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications," the study concludes.

　　Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters. While apples do not compete with oranges, they do contain some immune (免疫的) system-increasing vitamin C, which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less. With over 8mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit, an apple can provide roughly 14% your daily recommended intake.

　　Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type 2 diabetes (二型糖尿病) ,improved lung function and a lower risk of colon (结肠) cancer.

　　What is the conclusion of the study?

　　AApple consumption has greatly reduced US adults,trips to the doctor.

　　BAn apple a day does keep the doctor away.

　　CApples are far more nutritious than oranges.

　　DA small number of US adult apple eaters tend to take less medicine.
