【題目】Imagine having a simple app(應(yīng)用程序) that works like: When you need help, just open the app, touch the “notOK” button and a text message will be sent to five pre-selected(預(yù)先選定的)people, along with a location(位置)to show where you are. The message reads, Hey, I'm not OK. Please call me, text me, or come to find me.”

US teenagers Hannah Lucas, 15, and her brother Charie, 13, have created an app called notOK. People just need to pay $1.99(12.5 yuan) each month to use it.

Hannah was inspired(啟發(fā)) to create the app during a dark time in her life last year. She suffered from a disease that caused her to pass out at school. Other kids sometimes bullied (欺凌)her about this. She felt sad and wanted to find an app that would allow her to get help when she wasn’t feeling OK.

She asked her brother Charlie, whose nickname is “Tech Support”, to find such an app. When they couldn’t find they decided to create one themselves.

They came up with some designs for the app first Charie took a programming class last summer and built a website for the app. Hannah also shared her idea in her summer business class. Some app developers showed interest and decided to help her. At last, the app came out in the US and Canda on January 31.

Hannah is happy that her app is helping others. “It makes everything I went through last year worth it,” she said.

C. Five app developers

D. Five close friends.

【2】What do the underlined words “text me” in Paragraph One probably mean?

C. Send me a message D. Send me an exam

【3】The main purpose of inventing the app is to allow people ______.

A. to build a website B. to take classes

C. to earn money D. to ask for help

【4】The right order of the following statements about the invention of the app is _____.

b. Charlie took a programming class last summer

c. The app came out in the US and Canda in January.

d. Hannah and Charlie failed to find such a useful app

A. c, d, a, b B. c, d, b ,a C. a, d, b, c D. a, d, c, b

【5】The best words to describe the app are _______.

A. simple and helpful B. pleasant and dangerous

C. expensive and creative D. interesting and pre-selected

【答案】

【1】A

【2】C

【3】D

【4】C

【5】A

【解析】

本文主要介紹了Hanah和她的弟弟Charlie發(fā)明應(yīng)用程序notOK的故事。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的 “When you need help, just open the app, touch the

‘notOK’ button and a text message will be sent to five preselected (預(yù)先選定的) people...” 可知答案為A。

【2】詞義猜測(cè)題。句子The message reads, Hey, I'm not OK. Please call me, text me, or come to find me.的意思是：留言說，嘿，我不好。請(qǐng)打電話給我，發(fā)短信給我，或者來找我。結(jié)合文意可知，text me的含義是 “發(fā)短信給我”，故答案為C。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的 “She felt sad and wanted to find an app that would allow her to get help when she wasn’t feeling OK” 可知答案為D。

【4】推理判斷題。由句子She suffered from a disease that caused her to pass out at school.可知，漢娜去年得了一種病。這句話對(duì)應(yīng)a；根據(jù)句子When they couldn’t find they decided to create one themselves. 說明漢娜和查利沒有找到這樣一個(gè)有用的應(yīng)用程序。因此與d對(duì)應(yīng)；根據(jù)句子They came up with some designs for the app first Charie took a programming class last summer可知，Charie去年夏天上了程序設(shè)計(jì)課。與b一致；最后由句子At last, the app came out in the US and Canda on January 31. 可知，這款應(yīng)用于一月在美國(guó)和加拿大上市。

因此正確的順序是a, d, b, c。故選C。

【5】推理判斷題。根據(jù)句子She felt sad and wanted to find an app that would allow her to get help when she wasn’t feeling OK. 她很傷心，想找一個(gè)可以讓她在她感覺不舒服的時(shí)候得到幫助的應(yīng)用程序�？芍�，這個(gè)應(yīng)用程序是為了預(yù)防危險(xiǎn)的，因此B不對(duì)；由句子People just need to pay $1.99(12.5 yuan) each month to use it. 人們只需要每月支付1.99美元（12.5元）就可以使用它�？芍�，使用起來不貴。所以C不對(duì)；再由句子Some app developers showed interest and decided to help her. 一些應(yīng)用程序開發(fā)者對(duì)此也有很大的興趣并決定幫助她。而沒有說該應(yīng)用程序有趣味性。因此D也不對(duì)。只有A項(xiàng)指出這個(gè)app操作簡(jiǎn)單，而且對(duì)使用者很有幫助，故答案為A。

【題目】（題文）There are hundreds of funny and strange expressions in the English language. A lot of them include country names or nationalities. Take these examples:

The Dutch（丹麥人）are the target of most English expressions about nationalities. Why are there so many jokes about the Dutch in English? And what do these expressions mean? In the 17th and early 18th centuries, there were three wars between the British and the Dutch, and Dutch became a bad word. So double Dutch means something that has no meaning or is impossible to understand. A Dutch uncle is someone who gives much stronger advice than they need to. There are later expressions, which are funnier and kinder, like to go Dutch, which is nowadays a popular expression. It means to pay for your part of a bill. This often happens when a group of friends have a meal together, and each person pays for the food they ate. I’m a Dutchman is another commonly used expression. This means not being able to believe something.

An expression with a similar meaning to double Dutch is it’s all Greek to me, which means I don’t understand. The expression was made famous in Shakespeare’s play Julius Caesar although the expression is actually hundreds of years older.

If you take French leave, you are not present or leave somewhere without permission. For example, you could take French leave from a classroom or the place where you work. This expression is from the 18th century when French people left parties without saying goodbye to the host or hostess.

There are Chinese whispers, which mean confused（令人困惑的）messages. This describes the fact that a message can often change as it is passed from person to person. This expression comes from the First World War when foreigners were often confused by Chinese language.

Many people find English expressions confusing, but now that you know about some of them, you can easily have fun finding out many more funny English expressions.

【1】（小題1）Are there many jokes about the Dutch in English?

【2】（小題2）When did Dutch become a bad word?

【3】（小題3）What does “French leave” mean?

【4】（小題4）Which three expressions mentioned above have similar meanings?

【5】（小題5）What do the funny and strange expressions in the passage have in common?
