Have you ever noticed the black and white bars on a book?  Do you know what they are used for? 

They are barcodes(条形码) used in most products. If you go to a supermarket, you can see almost every product with a barcode on it. Barcodes contain i1.about the product, such as name and production date. It’s an easy and convenient way to know about the products. Just scan(扫描) the bars with a barcode reader and everything is c2..

The first use of a barcode in a supermarket checkout system was on a pack of American Wrigley Company chewing gum(口香糖) in 1974. Beyond supermarkets, barcodes are needed e3.: for renting cars, for luggage checks on a plane, for parcels you send; life would be rather difficult without barcodes. Most of our things would get lost in the post.

Barcodes c4. as well. Barcodes in the past were 1-D, but now there are 2-D barcodes, such as QR code. Since 2009, QR has been used on Chinese train tickets. People can e5. stadiums, cinemas and theaters by holding certain types of barcodes.

If you find these barcode things b6., a barcode building might be more up your street. In St Petersburg, Russia, there is a building designed like a barcode. It looks strange, but it’s a7. a shopping mall. There are games too. Barcode Monsters is a mobile phone game. You have to scan barcodes and find the monsters!

 

1.information 2.clear 3.everywhere 4.change 5.enter 6.boring 7.actually 【解析】 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了条形码的含义和发展历程。从最初用在产品上帮助消费者识别产品到后来发展为二维码被中国人印在火车票上,现在还有仿条形码的建筑物和游戏。 1.句意:条形码包含有关产品的信息,例如名称和生产日期。 根据题干中的举例“such as name and production date”和首字母提示“i”可知条形码包含了有关产品的“信息”,故答案为information。 2.句意:只需使用条形码阅读器扫描条码,一切就很清楚了。 根据首字母“c”和“barcode reader 条形码阅读器”可知扫码后产品信息非常的“清楚”,故答案为clear。 3.句意:除超级市场外,到处都需要条形码:用于租车,用于飞机上的行李托运,用于你寄送的包裹。 根据冒号后举例“for renting cars, for luggage checks on a plane, for parcels you send”和首字母“e”提示可知条形码存在于我们生活的“方方面面”,故答案为everywhere。 4.句意:条形码也发生了变化。 根据后文“Barcodes in the past were 1-D, but now there are 2-D barcodes, such as QR code.”和首字母“c”提示可知条形码从过去的一维“变化”出了现在的二维,如二维码,故答案为change。 5.句意:人们可以拿着特定类型的条形码进入体育场,电影院和剧院。 根据题干中出现的大量地点和首字母“e”的提示可知很多地方已经是扫码“进入”了,故答案为enter。 6.句意:如果您发现这些条形码很无聊,那么条形码建筑物可能就在您的街道上。 根据后文“barcode building 条形码建筑物”、“Barcode Monsters 条码怪兽”和首字母“b”提示可知人们发明了很多条形码的其他用途来把“无聊的”条码变的有趣,故答案为boring。 7.句意:它看起来很奇怪,但实际上是一个购物中心。 根据前文“barcode building 条形码建筑物”和后文中的“shopping mall 购物中心”以及首字母“a”提示可知条形码建筑物“实际上”就是一个购物中心,故答案为actually。

Read and number the following picture in the correct order (根据文章内容,给下列图片排序)

The woman, who has lived in Seaford for the past 20 years, approached the Seaford Newspaper last week “to encourage readers to be on the lookout for people who ask stupid questions.”

At about 11:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Julie Anderson answered a knock on her door and gave a man, who said he was lost directions to nearby Seaford Station.

She thought nothing of it until she realized there were people in the street whom the man could have asked. She became suspicious(怀疑的) when she saw him knocking on her neighbor’s door.

“Why would someone keep knocking on doors when I’d already told him what he wanted to know?” she said.“I rang the police when I saw him disappear around the side of the house.”

“He came out ten minutes later carrying a bag I hadn’t seen before. The police still hadn’t arrived and I was determined not to lose sight of him.”

That’s when the drama really began .Ms Anderson followed the man to the station.“I was absolutely(完全地) terrified.” She said.“I followed him in my car to the station. He was on foot and when he got there I lost sight of him. I panicked(恐慌) but, a few minutes later, I saw him on the platform. Luckily, there were two policemen coming towards me.” The man had got on a train and Ms Anderson tried to hold the doors open with her foot. She called out to the officers, who caught the man and found CDs and jewelry in his bag.

Later, Seaford police thanked Ms Anderson for her help ,but warned her against such dangerous action in the future.
