二、阅读判断
With smartphones and e-readers becoming more common, some people worry that the days of paper books are coming to an end. But a recent survey has shown that traditional books are still popular among readers. Nielsen found that more than 7 percent paper books were sold in the UK in 20xx compared with the year before, while sales of their digital rivals（竞争对手）dropped by 4 percent.
So what is behind 20xx’s print comeback? Nielsen’s survey found that it is young people who preferred paper books to e-books. In another study, more than 60 percent of young people said they preferred printed books to e-books. The most popular reason given was “I like to hold the product.”
Steve Bohme, the research director of Nielsen Book Research UK, explained that young people were using books as a break from their daily electronic devices（电子设备）. “We are seeing that reading paper books is a respite（缓解）, particularly for young people who are so busy digitally.” he said.
It is not just the British youth who prefer print books. The story is the same in other countries. The main reasons were that when reading e-books, students are easily distracted(分心). Some also ended up with headaches or sore eyes. In addition. Printed books can bring a very different reading experience. Some students said that they get a sense of achievement when they finish reading a paper book.

Many people travel to different places in the world by air. Usually it takes a long time, perhaps half a day, for passengers to stay in the plane. So airlines offer passengers food. But it is common that they feel bad about food taste. Do you agree?
To solve this problem , airlines try hard to improve their food. They would like to do so because they don’t want to lose customers.
However, according to scientific research, part of the reason why plane food tastes bad is that at high altitude( 海拔 )we can not taste things as well as we do on the ground. Also scientists have found that our noses become very dry even before a plane takes off. As the plane moves up, the change in air pressure( 气压 ) reduces one third of the sensibility(感觉 )of our taste buds( 味蕾 ).So our taste buds become senseless. The sad face, however, is that our noses don’t know it.
All of these help explain why food on the plane tastes so bad. They also help explain why airlines choose to offer passengers salty and spicy( 辛辣 )food. Without doing so, the food would be tasteless.
Now there are many researches on this. According to one of them, some volunteers are asked to lie with their feet higher than their heads for weeks. And scientists write down their feelings about food taste.
Though scientists try their best, it is not as easy as they thought. Because they can’t deal with the special environment successfully, such as the change in air pressure, making food taste good is still hard for them.
1.In Paragraph2,“this problem” means _______.
A. passengers stay long in the plane
B. food on the plane tastes bad
C. passengers have no food to eat
D. food on the plane is expensive
2.Why do scientists feel it hard to made food on the plane taste good?
A. The volunteers don’t know about food taste.
B. The volunteers don’t understand them.
C. They can’t find enough volunteers.
D. They can’t deal with the special environment successfully.
3.What is the best title of the passage?
A. Taste of Airplane Food
B. Airplane Travel
C. Scientific Research on Noses
D. The Change in Air Pressure.
I think it is safe to say that snakes are not popular among most people, It would be hard to find a person who is neutral( 中立的 ),or simply doesn’t care one way or the other, What I wonder is why something even without legs causes such great fear.
Snakes are quite useful, but that doesn’t seem to matter, Snakes help control the population of mice. Without snakes, perhaps we would find mice everywhere, Most of us, however, would rather see a mouse than a snake, The poison argument( 毒性的`争论? )is a strong one, Some snakes are poisonous, and this causes people’s death , However, the poisonous snakes are only a small number. We can’t say all the snakes are bad just because of a few dangerous ones. And what do we do with the people who really like snakes? They like snakes even more strongly than we dislike them. These people learn about them, find them out, and watch them carefully, Why? The only reason I can think of is that these people are open-minded, They are able to put aside differences and welcome the snake as a friend.
Whatever the reason for our like or dislike, snakes do something good in the circle of life.
They would prefer to be left alone, and that is what we should do, If you’re lucky, you might not run across more than a few of them in a lifetime, That would be fine with most of us.

A. Something even without legs.

3.Although some snakes are poisonous, _______.
A. they cause many people’s death
B. they control the population of mice
C. they are not dangerous to people
