Questionsare based on the following passage．
The Wall Street Journal quoted sources close to thecompany as saying a run of 4．000 devices will be manufacturednext month．The tablet will have two rear-facing camerasand advanced imaging software——and will be shown off at the firm’s forthcomingdevelopers’ conference．Google has said it will not commenton “rumor and speculation”．But in March，Google showed off Project Tango，all effortto bring 3D technology to its handheld devices．Aprototype smart phone had been given out to 200 developers to try out．
The technology makes use of infrared sensors tomeasure depth of surroundings．While the ability to create 3Dimages with small devices is by no means a new technological feat，Google’s strategy will be to harness the hardware to contribute to，among other things，its mapping effort．For instance，the devices could be used tocreate quickly a 3D map of indoor environments．Accordingto the Wall Street Journal，the 3D tablet will be shownof fat Google’s annual developers’ conference at the end of June．
As it did with the Google Glass eyewear product．itis expected the firm will A．low a select number ofdevelopers and engineers to experiment with the technology before a consumerlaunch is planned．although still a relatively minorindustry，the race to create the “killer app” forbuilding and viewing virtual reality environments is building a pace．In March，Facebook swooped in on a$2bn（￡1．2bn） deal for OculusVR，a company making a virtual reality headset．
A mini-site for Project Tango has highlighted a fewof the firm’s plans in the area．“Project Tango is an attempt tocreate a mobile device unlike like any other，”the siteexplains．“A mobile device that shares our sense ofspace and movement，that understands and perceives theworld the same way we do．”
In the past few years，devices able to view andcreate 3D images have made it to market，but suffered heavilyfrom a lack of consumer interest，said Jack Kent，an analyst at IHS．“If Google really pushesit，that might change也e dynamicsof the market。”he told the BBC．

3、        Questions are based on the following passage.
         In his first term. Mayor Michael Bloomberg mapped out a fair plan to get rid of 11,000 tons of New York City garbage every day. The complex proposal was designed to make each district take care of its own trash. It was also supposed to help limit noisy garbage trucks going long distances through, the city to reach marine barges (驳船), railways or out-of-state trash facilities.
        Nobody wanted these new garbage transfer stations in their neighborhood, even with promises of new high-tech, low-smell facilities. There are already stations in Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island, most of them in lower-income commtmities. Only one area of the city--the Upper East Side of
Manhattan--has refused to accept a trash facility. The city should not give in to local resistance.
        It is time for residents in that neighborhood to accept a share of the city's garbage problem. The city should build a modern, environmentally sound facility at 91st Street to transfer trash from Manhattan to barges on the East River. That trash, estimated at up to 1,800 tons a day, would then go by barge to other states.
Deputy Mayor Cas Hoiloway said last week that the city has had to fight off "lawsuit after lawsuit" with "every useless argument under the sun" from those opposing the 91st Street facility. Those delays have helped push the cost for building the station from $125 million in 2006 to about $ 226 million now.
        An earlier trash station at that site, which was closed in 1999, was badly designed so that trucks idled along York Avenue. The new facility, Mr. Holloway said, has been designed to reduce the congestion problem with longer ramps (匝道) leading to the facility, which sits on the eastern side of Franklin D. Roosevelt Drive. The plans also call for higher noise-blocking walls along the ramps.
        This terminal is an essential part of the city's 20-year waste management plan. John Doherty, the sanitation (环境卫生) commissioner, told critics at a hearing last week, "We will not entertain any changes to what is a fair and thoughtful, district-based approach that was founded on the principles of environmental equity for all New Yorkers."
Environmental equity, in this case, means that the Upper East Side of Manhattan has to do its part.
The plan worked out by Mayor Michael Bloomberg will______.
A．make garbage trucks no longer necessary
B．need more out-of-state trash facilities
C．reduce the amount of trash in the city
D．make each district deal with its own trash


4、　　
A．It’s hardly breaking news that junk food is bad for us．But just how bad—and just how much food companies know about the addictive(添加剂)  components of certain foods，and just how much they deliberately target the  most vulnerable consumers knowing they are doing damage-is still being discovered．The New York Times offers the latest installment in this weekend’s magazine with an article about the science of junk food addiction．
B．Nearly everything written about food in the mainstream media relies on the san2e narrative：Obesity is  bad．That kind of reporting is part of what’s keeping us sick．There’s no denying the fact that the  American public has gotten larger in recent decades．Along with getting fatter，we've also seen a rise in  illnesses like．heart disease and certain cancers．Instead of focusing on how our health is hurting．most  of the media coverage uses the term “obesity”．making the story more about weight than about  health—to the point where it’s become an accepted truth that“fat”equals “unheaithy”．
C．That’s not actually the case．though．While “the obesity epidemic” may be a convenient catch．all for the illnesses and health problems related to our food chain．it’s a lazy term and an inaccurate one．Are  we actually worried about public health? 0r are we offended by fat bodies that don’t meet our thin ideals?In all seriousness：what good does a focus on body size actually do?
D．If we’re actually concerned about health．then we should focus on health．The addictive qualities of  our food, the lack of oversight ( 监督). the high levels of chemicals and the government subsidies (补贴) to make prices lower making the worst foods the most accessible should concern us and spur us to action. Nutrient-deficient (营养缺乏) chemically-processed "food" in increasingly larger sizes is bad for all of our bodies, whether we're fat or thin or somewhere in between. So is the culture in which fast food is able to thrive. Americans work more than ever before; we take fewer vacation days and put in longer hours, especially since the recession hit. The US remains the only industrialized country without national paid parental leave and without compulsory annual vacation time; we also have no federal law requiring paid sick days. 85% of American men and 66% of women work more than 40  hours per week. In Norway, for comparison, 23% of men work more than 40-hour weeks, and only 7% of women.
E．Despite all this work, American income levels remain remarkably divided into the poorest and the richest, with the richest few controlling nearly all of the wealth. In one of the wealthiest countries on earth, one in seven people rely on federal food aid, with most of the financial benefits going to big food companies who are also able to produce cheap, nutritionally questionable food thanks to agricultural subsidies. The prices of the worst foods are arificially depressed, the big food lobbies have enormous power, and the biggest loser is the American public, especially low-income folks wbo spend larger proportions of their income on food but face systematic impediments (妨碍) to healthy eating and exercise.
F．With demanding work days, little time off and disproportionate amounts of our incomes going toward things like health insurance and childcare that other countries provide at a lower cost, is it any surprise that we eat fast-food breakfast on our laps in the car and prefer dinner options that are quick and cheap?
G． Reforming our food system requires major structural changes, not just saying no to put down that bag of chips. We need to push back against corporate interests. Food companies are incredibly" good at positing themselves as crusaders (拥护者) for personal choice and entities simply dedicated to giving the public what it wants. Somehow, big food companies have convinced us that drinking a 32oz soda is a matter of personal liberty, and that the government has no place in regulating how much liquid  sugar can be sold in a single container.
H．In fact, we know-and they certainly know-that human beings are remarkably bad at judging how much we're eating. Food companies use that information to encourage over-consumption, and to target certain consumers who tend to have less disposable income to invest in healthy food  poor people, people of color, kids.
I． Food is a social justice issue that has disproportionately negative impacts on groups already facing hardship. That should be an issue for every socially conscious person. But when looking at the large number of problems caused not only by our big food industry but by the policies that enable them and our cultural norms that incentivize poor health choices, too many people simply turn "obesity" into the boogeyman(恶巫) .  Doctors even blame fatness for all sorts of medical conditions and people don't get proper treatment. Fat women go to the doctor less often for routine cancer screenings, and patients report doctors focusing on their weight and ignoring real medical problems like broken bones and asthma (哮喘).
J．On the policy side, promoters of laws that incentivize health or push back on corporate food interests such as Michelle Obarna's Let's Move ! initiative, bans on extra-large sodas, and extra SNAP benefits at farmer's markets inevitably target " obesity" in their campaigns. That strategy has the effect of maligning (诽谤) the beauty of certain bodies instead of encouraging everyone to be healthier and countering the enormous influence of big companies. As a result, many people who should be the natural allies of health-promoting initiatives are put off by the shaming fat language.
K．"Obesity epidemic" language has also fed into the idea of body size and eating habits as social group.  Thinner kale (甘蓝)  eating elite liberals in the Northeast are trying to force-feed cabbage to heavier real Americans in the South and Midwest. No one wins with that kind of cultural polarization.
L．Yes, let's push back against big food companies and question their outsized influence in Washington    and in our daffy lives, and let's focus on making healthy food more widely accessible. Let's realize that    the challenges extend beyond just what we eat. Let's fight for the humane (仁爱的) work policies that will make us all healthier.
M．But let's do that because public health is all of our concern, not because it's culturally easy to point the    finger at fat people. Giving every member of a society the chance to be as healthy as possible is a  moral good. It saves money and it saves lives. So let's do it the right way and the most effective way without lazily relying on the word "obesity".
As a social justice problem, food negatively impact on groups who already have had a difficult life.
