阅读理解。     The Rockford police chief and some city officials want to install (安装) video cameras in all 100 police
cars. They think this will reduce the number of lawsuits (法律诉讼). In the last five years, Rockford has
paid out more than five million dollars to settle about 40 lawsuits.
     The chief said,"If cameras had been in those cars. we wouldn"t have. had to pay one cent. We"re always
pulling over drunks or drug users who try to fight the police or shoot them. Then they always claim (声称)
that the police start beating them first or start shooting at them first."
     The cost of installing cameras will be about $500 each. The city council (委员会) will vote on the
proposal (提议) next Monday. Ten of the 13 council members said that they like the idea. One member said
that it makes good sense.
     The police officers enthusiastically support camera use. One officer said that too many people think the
police often lie; cameras would show citizens that police tell the truth. "The money that we"ve been spending
on lawsuits will be better spent on more cameras," said one officer.
     Citizen opinions to the idea of police car cameras are mixed. One person, said that the police should have
started doing this years ago when video cameras were invented. But an elderly man strongly objected. "These
police are trying to stick their nose into everything," he said. He was going to attend the council meeting to
condemn the proposal. He hoped that other citizens would join him. 1. We can learn from what the chief said that with cameras on _____.A. the police will not be treated unjustly

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

     Hospital emergency rooms treat injured fingers all the time. Without treatment, a bad cut can lead to
permanent damage. But how should a person know when a bleeding cut is serious enough to require
medical attention?
      Here are some tips from Dr. Martin Brown, chairman of the department of emergency at Inova
Alexandria Hospital in Virginia. 
     1. Laceration (裂口)
     The medical term for a cut or tear in the skin is a laceration.   1   A long cut on a finger can likely be
treated without a visit to a doctor if the wound is not very deep. However, if you have a short but deep
laceration, you will need professional attention,
     2. Fingertips cut off
     Some injuries, like a fingertip that gets cut off, might even need surgery (外科手术) to repair.   2   
More often, cutting down the bone is what is done because reattaching a fingertip is often not successful.
     3. Bleeding 
       3    Small cuts usually produce what is known as venous (静脉的) bleeding. This means the blood
flows steadily from the injury. The bleeding will often stop when pressure is put on the wound. In most
cases holding direct pressure with a clean cloth for four to five minutes would do. But if a cut appears to
be pumping blood out with some force, this may be a sign of arterial (动脉的) bleeding.   4     
     Finally, always keep this in mind: even a cut that does not require medical attention must be kept clean
to prevent infection. Small cuts should be cleaned gently with clean water.   5    Then cover it with a clean,
dry bandage.

A. How a wound bleeds can be a sign of how serious it is.
B. That requires a specialist to either cut down the bone or reattach the fingertip.
C. This kind of injury should be treated by a medical professional as soon as possible
D. The first signs of this disease include difficulty opening the mouth.
E. Use a washcloth to clean the area if the wound is dirty.
G. The length is usually not as important as the depth.

阅读理解。                                                                          Garlic
     Some people can"t stand garlic." That smell is too strong. And it doesn"t go away! There"s nothing worse
than garlic," they say.    1   Chester Aaron grows eighty-seven kinds of garlic on his farm. He wrote a book
called Garlic is life. It seems that people either love garlic or hate it.

China, Europe, and North Africa. Farmers began planting it over 5000 years ago. People in many countries
shared similar ideas about garlic. For example, it was believed that garlic made it possible for slaves to work
harder and longer. In Greece, the athletes of the first Olympic Games ate garlic, because they wanted to
become stronger and faster.   3   In some places, garlic was called "food for lovers" People added it to other
foods because it tasted good.

阅读理解。     Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. "I was a clothes addict," he
jokes."I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled." Today
David wears casual clothes-khaki pants and sports shirt-to the office. He hardly ever wears necktie. "I"m
working harder than ever," David says, "and I need to feel comfortable."
     More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work in the United
States. The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies
allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday). This became known as "dress-
down Friday" or "casual Friday." "What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has
really become an everyday thing," said business consultant Maisly Jones.
     Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that
it"s easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. "A lot of young people don"t
want to dress up for work," says the owner of a software company, "so it"s hard to hire people if you have a
conservative dress code." Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are
wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers
said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale (士气). Only 4 percent of employers said
that casual dress has a negative impact on productive. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual
dress code helps them save money. "Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day," one person said.
