To solve the problem， food delivery service companies need to improve their incentive systems， noted CRI Online． （4） Shanghai has asked companies to train their deliverymen on traffic rules and safety． Now in Shenzhen， if a deliveryman gets caught breaking traffic rules more than twice， then he will be banned（禁止） from driving food service delivery vehicles for a whole year．

APRIL 5 marks the 100th anniversary(周年纪念日)of the sinking(下沉)of the Titanic. In 1997, the movie Titanic was a huge hit all around the world. Now, the 3-D version of the movie will come to Chinese theaters on April 10.
As anyone who has seen the movie knows, the Titanic struck an iceberg(冰山) and sank on its first voyage in 1912, killing 1,517 people. A century after the accident, scientists have found something new to blame(负责任) for the sinking: the moon. Donald Olson, a Texas State University physicist, led a team of astronomers(天文学家) to examine the moon’s role, according to Reuters.
Normally, icebergs stay in place and cannot move until they melt enough or a high tide(潮汐) frees them. A single iceberg can become stuck many times on its journey southward. The process can take several years.
According to Olson, a hundred years ago the moon made its closest approach to the Earth in more than 1,400 years. This caused the moon to have a much stronger pull on the Earth’s oceans than usual, which created a super-high tide. The tide pushed icebergs from shallow waters off the coasts of Canada’s provinces, Newfoundland and Labrador, into the Titanic’s way.
“Of course, the final cause of the accident was that the ship struck an iceberg,” Olson told Reuters. “It went full speed into a region with icebergs, but the lunar connection(月亮的联系) may explain how an unusually large number of icebergs got into the path of the Titanic.”
The research team will publish their research in the April issue of Sky & Telescope magazine.

It’s not easy to be an astronaut’s son．Everybody expects you to be special or perfect. I often wonder how my father ever had a son like me. I mean he’s so special and so good at everything he does. Even in middle school he was class president and captain of the football team.
Well，to be honest，I often dream about being some kind of hero or doing something special—like saving a child from a burning building or discovering a new star. I was daydreaming at school one morning when my teacher said there would be a Father’s Day writing competition for the whole schoo1. “I hope we have a winner right here in my class.”
When I got home，I started to think about what to write. My father is an astronaut. No, I wouldn’t start like that．That was the way others saw him．How did I see my father? Hmm.
I saw him sitting with me in the dark when I had a terrible dream．I remembered how he hugged me for hours when my dog Spotty was killed by a car．Yes，these were the things I was going to write．To me，he wasn’t just a world—famous astronaut．He was my dad．
My parents and I went to school on Thursday night. There were so many people in the big hall! My dad looked at me, and I shrugged(耸肩).
The third prize was announced and it was not me. I was relieved(释然)and disappointed at the same time. The second prize was announced. It was me.
I went up to the stage and read what I had written，“My father’s son”. When I finished, the people stood up and cheered. I saw my father blowing his nose. Tears were running down my mother's face. Dad cleared his throat and put his hand on my shoulder. “Son, this is the proudest moment of my life.’’
It was the proudest moment of my life, too. Maybe I’ll never be a great hero or win a Nobel Prize, but it was enough just to be my father’s son.

Computer technology has become an important part of people’s life．This technology has its own special words．One well-known computer word is Google．It’s the name of a popular “search engineer(引擎)” for the Internet．People use the search engineer to find information about almost any subject on the Internet．The people who started the company named it Google because in math Google is a very large number-One hundred zeros follow the number one．When you “Google” a subject, you can get a lot of information about it．
If you Google someone, you might find that person’s name on a blog (博客)．A blog is short for a Web log．It’s a personal Web page．Some people write blogs to express their opinions and ideas over the Internet．Some use them to share their lives with faraway friends or family．Others write blogs to help them deal with sickness, money problems or to choose movies to see or books to read．Some people add information to their blogs every day．People who have blogs are called bloggers．
根据短文内容, 判断下列句子的正误,正确的为“T”，错误的为“F”。并在答题卡上将答案涂黑。Google and Blog are two kinds of popular search engineer．
．One can use Google to search the Internet for all information he wants．
．People may use blogs to share their opinions or ask others for help．
．Bloggers must add information to their blogs every day．
From the passage we can infer ( 推断) that computer technology is changing people’s life．
If you think texting(发短信) while walking is dangerous, just wait until everyone starts wearing Google's smart, Internet-connected glasses. These glasses can do anything you now need a smartphone or tablet computer(平板电脑) to do —and then some.
In Google's video, a guy wearing the "Project Glass" is shown getting subway information, making an appointment with a friend for coffee and showing the directions in a bookstore, all with the help of the glass. It ends with him playing an instrument for a woman and showing her the sunset through a video chat.
The "Project Glass" Google displayed have a sleek(光滑的) wrap-around look and appear nothing like 3-D glasses. In development for a few years, the project is the idea of Google X, the online search-leader's secret department that produced the self-driving car and could one day send elevators into space.
Google posted the video and short blog post about “Project Glass” on April 4th, asking people to offer feedback(反馈) through its Google Plus social network. By April 5th, about 500 people did, voicing a mix of amazement and concern about the new technology. What if people used it in cars and could not concentrate on driving? What about the effect on(对……有影响) your sight of having a screen so close to your eye?
Some asked for the glass, but Google isn't giving those out just yet. The company didn't say when normal people can expect to get their hands on a piece of Project Glass, but going by how quickly Google will come out with new products, it may not be long. Enderle said that it could be about six months to a year before wide tests are coming, and a year or more for the first version(版本) of the product. This passage mainly talks about .
A. an invention B. a video C. GoogleThe of the “Project Glass” is not mentioned in this passage.
A. shape B. inventor C. priceIf you want to buy such a piece of glass, you should wait at least for .
A. a year B. 6 months C. 3 months We can’t use the glass to .

A. The “Project Glass” looks like 3-D glasses.
B. Many people think that the glass may help a lot while driving.
C. Some people worry that the glass will be bad to our sight while wearing it.
