一、阅读理解It was a comfortable sunny Sunday. I was going to meet an old university friend I hadn't seen for years, and was really excited.My train was running a little late, but that was no big problem—I could text him to say I would be delayed. He would understand. But … where was my mobile phone? I had that familiar sinking feeling. Yes, I'd left it at home.No mobile phone. I'm sure I'm not alone in feeling anxious, on edge and worried when I don't have my phone with me. In fact, I know I'm not alone: two－thirds of us experience “nomophobia(无手机恐惧症)”, the fear of being out of mobile phone contact.That's according to a study from 2012 which surveyed 1，000 people in the UK about their relationship with mobile phones.It says we check our mobile phones 34 times a day, and that 18—24－year－old, especially girls, are the most likely to suffer fear of being without their mobiles: 77% of them say they are unable to be apart from their phones for more than a few minutes.Do you have nomophobia?● You never turn your phone off.● You frequently check for texts, missed calls and emails.● You always take your phone to the bathroom with you.● You never let the battery run out.It's funny to think that around 20 years ago the only people with mobile phones would be businessmen carrying their large, plastic “bricks”. Of course, these days, mobile phones are everywhere. A UN study from this year said there would be more mobile phones than people across the world by the end of 2020.And when there are more phones than people in the world, maybe it's time to ask who really is in charge? Are you in control of your phone, or does your phone control you?So, what happened with my university friend? When I arrived a few minutes late he just laughed and said: “You haven't changed at all—still always late！” And we had a great afternoon catching up, full of jokes and stories, with no desire to check my phone.Not having it with me felt strangely free. Maybe I'll leave it at home on purpose next time.1、The underlined phrase “on edge” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”．A. energetic B. nervous C. brilliant D. amazed2、What's the author's attitude towards using mobiles?A. Worried. B. Positive. C. Neutral. D. Negative. 3、According to the passage, who is most likely to be addicted to mobiles?A. A successful manager. B. A 21－year－old girl.C. A 21－year－old boy. D. A lonely middle－aged person.4、What does the passage talk about?A. The history of mobile phones.B. The story of meeting an old university friend.C. The attraction of playing mobile phone.D. The terrible feeling of being without their mobiles. Twenty－five young musicians from around the world have come to California to train and perform this month. They will take part in an international programme called iPalpiti. The name comes from the Italian word for heartbeats.Eduard Schmieder is the programme’s conductor and musical director. Schmieder and his wife started the programme in 1997 with help from violinist and conductor Yehudi Menuhin.This year, the musicians come from 19 countries, including Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Israel and Italy. Schmieder notes some of the musicians are from countries that are at war with each other. And they are sitting next to each other, and they become friends. He says through their music and friendship, they are making the world more peaceful.The musicians taking part in the programme range in age from their late teens to their 30s. Schmieder said they include winners of major music competitions. Peter Rainer is a violin player from Germany. He serves as concertmaster, the link between the musicians and conductor. “It's so great that you have so many sensitive musicians. They all are very alert and awake and listen to each other and it's a lot of fun.” Turkish viola player Can Sakul says the international group works well together. “The experience is a cultural as well as a musical exchange，” said Russian violinist Semyon Promoe. “Everyone has their own opinion of music, how to play every composition. It's very interesting to interact with everybody, to play together and to create one opinion for everybody.” This year, the festival focuses on music from the 1600s to the 1900s. But cello player Francisco Vila of Ecuador said the music has no geographic boundaries. Vila added that the musicians get to know more about each other as they perform great music.“It's interesting to see where we intersect(交集), how many things we have in common. And also the music world is quite small, so you're only one person away from knowing everyone else.” Can Sakul said the musicians who have taken part in the training and festival make up a big family. He added that he is proud to be a part of it.5、When was the programme founded?A. This month. B. From 1600s. C. From late teens. D.

Music Competitions at War二、七选五9、How to Make FriendsFriendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends. Good friendship has many benefits.
