It is published in 32 countries, including France, the United States, Australia, China, the United Kingdom, Russia, Spain, Italy and many other nations.‎ Marie Claire Magazine has been sticking to its theme of “More than a Pretty Face” since Jean Prouvost created it in France in 1937. It was soon released every Wednesday and was an immediate success. Unfortunately, because of World War II it stopped printing, but it began again in 1954 as a monthly publication. Once Jean Prouvost’s daughter Evelyne took control of it, she added the L’Oreal Group.‎ The magazine has provided women throughout the world with information on health, struggles and life stories of women. The magazine also focuses on current affairs that women around the globe face in their daily lives, and has a section in which the readers’ questions are answered. The magazine discusses all of the latest and hottest things in clothing and accessories. It also provides its female readers with shopping information to help them find the best deals for the latest fashions.‎ The cover of Marie Claire Magazine has been graced（为锦上添花）by many famous faces. Hilary Swank, Christina Aguilera, Drew Barrymore, Beyonce, Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Anniston and Angela Jolie are just a few of the top stars that have graced the cover.

Is a pioneer in the magazine industry C Amazon.com has received patent（专利）rights to send its products to customers by unmanned drone aircraft（无人机）. The company is the largest U.S.-based online seller of products. It delivers（递送）those products to customers electronically, by mail and by other delivery services.‎ In March, federal official gave Amazon permission to test its drone delivery plan. But even with a patent and the.ability of drones to make deliveries, it does not appear the company will put its new delivery system in place any time soon. The U.S. Patent Office published the document. It describes Amazon’s plans to use the Global Positioning System, or GPS, to deliver products to homes and to wherever people are.‎ The drone will use a customer’s mobile device-usually a smartphone-to avoid hitting people or buildings and to identify a safe area to land. The company wants to deliver products within 30 minutes of people ordering them on its website.‎ Amazon is not yet offering drone delivery. But Professor Alkalay says it will not be long before it does. “I do think that in the reasonably foreseeable future they’re going to start doing deliveries. We already see deliveries being done in disaster areas, in remote areas. I think there’s a huge demand for that type of delivery.‎ Professor Alkalay says, there are concerns that the drones will crash into objects or people, or that the products and drones will be stolen or intentionally damaged. But she says that is because many people believe the drones would only deliver the products to the front door of a house. “If you think of drone delivery perhaps to your rooftop, then you would have an opportunity to ‎ separate the pedestrian and the vehicular traffic, and at the same time separate it from air traffic.‎ Professor Alkalay notes that American homes are not currently able to receive deliveries on their roof tops. However, it is possible that homes will one day have special areas on their roofs designed to receive product deliveries.‎ ‎28. What can we learn from the passage?‎ A. Amazon has put its new delivery system in place.‎ B. Amazon wants to deliver products within 20 minutes.‎ C. American homes can’t receive deliveries on their roof tops now.‎ D. Amazon is the second largest online seller of products in America.‎ ‎29. How can the drone land in a safe area without hitting people or buildings?‎ A. By using a customer’s smartphone.‎ B. By using the website of the delivery company.‎ C. By using the Global Positioning System.‎ D. By using the mobile device placed in the delivery company.‎ ‎30. The underlined word “it” in Para. 5 refers to “ ”.‎ A. the rooftop B. drone delivery C. the vehicular traffic D. the front door of a house ‎31. What is the theme of the passage?‎ A. Amazon delivers products electronically.‎ B. Amazon receives patent for drone delivery system.‎ C. Amazon is trying to take its drone technology safe.‎ D. Amazon-a U.S.-based online seller of products.‎ D Some colors people see late at night could cause signs of the condition mental health experts call clinical depression（临床抑郁症）. That was the finding of a study that builds on earlier study findings. They show that individuals who live or work in low levels of light overnight can develop clinical depression.‎ Doctors use the word clinical depression to describe severe form of depression. Signs may include loss of interest or pleasure in most activities, low energy levels and thoughts of death of suicide.‎ In a new study, American investigators designed an experiment that exposed hamster（仓鼠）to different colors. The researchers chose hamsters because they are nocturnal, which, means they sleep during the day and are active at night.‎ The animal were separated into four groups. One group of hamsters was kept in the dark, during their night-time period. Another group was placed in front of a blue light, a third group slept in front of a white light, while a fourth was put in front of a red light. After four weeks, the researchers noted how much sugary water the hamsters drank. They found that he most depressed animals drank the least amount of water.‎ Randy Nelsons, at Ohio State University, says.animals that slept in blue and white light appeared to be the most depressed. “What we saw is that these animals didn’t show any sleep interruptions at all but they did mess up biological clock（生物钟）genes and they did show depressive sign but if they were in the dim red light, they did not.” He says there’s a lot of blue in white light. This explains why the hamsters put in front of blue light ind white light appear to be more depressed than the hamsters seeing red light or darkness.‎ ‎32. The researchers did the experiment on hamsters to .‎ A. show how well they slept B. explain why they liked dark colours C. find out what color would cause the depression on them D. see how much sugary water they drank ‎33.

Equipping their computer screens to put it more in the reddish light.‎ D. Going to see doctors of clinical depression regularly for help.‎ 第二节（共5小题；4每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 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。‎ Are you always running:up and down trying to sort out issues yet at the end of the day you fell like you still have so much you haven’t accomplished?
