Even kids know that we should wait for the traffic light to turn green before crossing a road, but not everybody follows this basic rule.
“Chinese style road crossing” has become a hot expression recently. Chinese people “cross roads without thinking about traffic lights, so long as they are part of a crowd”, said a post on Sina Weibo.
A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour, more than 600 people ran red lights when crossing a road in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.
Many people say that they jaywalk (乱穿马路) because the red light lasts too long. Such an opinion is supported by a research team at Tongji University.
The team did research on people’s waiting times at different road crossings from 2008 to 2010. They found that Chinese people would wait for 70 to 90 seconds before they lost their patience.
“People are likely to run the red light when the waiting time is longer than they can bear (忍受),”said Ni Ying, a member of the research team.
However, a survey on Sina Weibo shows that nearly half of respondents (调查对象) believe that people jaywalk mainly because they disregard (忽视) rules.
“I always obey(遵守) traffic rules. Time is important but safety should come first,”wrote “Qixiaoe”on Weibo.
Many countries give out punishments to jaywalkers. In Singapore, the maximum can be three months in prison. Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions, too. For example, the first three people in a jaywalking group will be fined (罚款) 50 yuan in Shijiazhuang.
But calling on people to respect rules is more important. “To completely solve the problem, everyone should realize the importance of obeying the traffic rules,”Wang Jianping, a professor at Sichuan University, said to Huaxi Metropolis Daily.What does the phrase“the team”in Paragraph 5 refer to(指的是)?
| A．A CCTV news program. |

How long will Chinese people wait for to cross the road before they lose patience?
| A．Less than one minute. |
| B．About five minutes. |
| C．Less than one and a half minutes. |
| D．More than ten minutes. |
In the sentence“People are likely to run the red light, we can use ________ to take the place of “be likely to.
| A．may | B．love to |
| C．be able to | D．be going to |
Why do people jaywalk according to the survey on Sina Weibo?
| A．Because there are too many people on the road. |
| B．Because the red light lasts too long. |
| C．Because people don’t pay much attention to rules. |
| D．Because people have less patience. |

| B．disregard the traffic rules |
| C．reduce the time of red lights |
| D．call on people to obey the traffic rules |

In early November of 1503, during Christopher Columbus’ fourth and final trip to America, his ship was seriously damaged in a storm. Columbus and his men had to live on a small island for several months while they tried to repair their ship and return to Spain.
At first, the local people on the island were very kind to the European visitors, giving them all the food and clothes they needed to survive. However, as the months passed, the local people became more and more unhappy with their guests, who were tricking and stealing from them. Finally the locals decided to stop helping. Without food or any way to leave the island, Columbus’ group was soon in serious trouble.
Luckily for Columbus, he had a book about the stars and planets on his ship. It described the movements of all the objects in the night sky. The book, written by a well-known German scientist, said there would be a total lunar eclipse (月食) on the evening of February 29, 1504 and how long it would last.
Columbus worked out the difference in time between Germany and North America. He then had a meeting with the local leaders just before the eclipse would take place. In this meeting, Columbus told them his god was angry because the local people were no longer giving food. So his god would take away the moon to punish them. At the moment Columbus finished talking, just as he had planned, the moon began disappearing.
The local leaders grew frightened and quickly agreed to provide Columbus with food and anything else he wanted. But first, Columbus’ god had to return the moon. Columbus told them he would have to discuss the idea with his god on his ship. Knowing the moon would stay completely hidden for about 48 minutes, Columbus returned just before the moon began to reappear. From that day on, until they finally left, Columbus and his men no longer had any trouble getting the food they needed.At first, the local people helped Columbus and his men by__________.

In March 2014, Australia opened junior high education to Chinese students, allowing them to study in Australian schools from the seventh grade.
“When more Chinese students are going to study abroad at a younger age, the opening of Australian junior high schools offers Chinese students and their parents one more good choice,” Tian Litie, director of the Australian Department of Chivast Education International, said at the China International Education Exhibition Tour over the weekend.
Australia will see a rise in the number of Chinese junior and senior high school students studying in the country. Tian showed the reasons for it: lower admission (入学许可) requirements and low-cost education because of a favorable exchange rate (费率). According to Tian, in public schools in Australia a student should pay A$13,000 to A$15,000 ($10,000 to $12,000) a year.
“Now the exchange rate of the Australian dollar to renminbi is below five, which means the cost is lower than that of Chinese students studying at junior and senior high schools in many other hot places, such as Britain and the US,” said Tian.
Lin Lina from Beijing plans to send her daughter to a senior high school in Australia, was among them.
“My daughter is good at English and would like to study abroad early,” said Lin, whose daughter is now a ninth-grader in Beijing. “We came for more information after we learned that the environment and education in Australia are good.”
Eliza Chui, education officer for North Asia at the Australian Consulate-General in Shanghai, said that Australia is attractive not only because it provides an environment for learning English, but also because students are trained to have critical (批判性的) thinking and be independent.According to Tian Litie, we know that ______.
| A．more and more Chinese students study abroad at a younger age |
| B．more and more Australian universities are open to Chinese students |
| C．Chinese students are only allowed to study in Australia from senior high school |
| D．a student should pay A$10,000 to A$12,000 a year in public schools in Australia |
What does the word “it” in Paragraph 3 mean?
| A．Australia allows Chinese students to study in its schools. |
| B．More and more Chinese students go abroad at a younger age. |
| C．More Chinese junior and senior high school students will study in Australia. |
| D．Australian schools offer Chinese students and their parents one more good choice. |
According to the article, which of the following is TRUE?
| A．The cost of studying in American schools is lower than in Australia. |
| B．The exchange rateof the Australian dollar is of advantage to Chinese students. |
| C．It’s more difficult for Chinese students to enter Australian junior high schools. |
| D．Few students choose to study in Britain or the US because of too much money. |
