一、阅读理解。
At present we spend a lot of time on our mobile devices these days and automakers have taken notes, rolling out connected cars that make it easy to do nearly everything from your phone.
“We all enjoy those kinds of experiences where you want something and by the push of a button everything gets taken care of for you.
You don’t have to go here and there and piece a bunch of things together by yourself. ”
Ford recently introduced FordPass, a mobile platform that lets car owners access services like finding and paying for a parking spot.
“Here’s the details of what charges will be in sign, and then I submit (点击接受), and then I receive a QRphoto allowing me entry access to that parking location. ”
Over at Buick, the OnStar RemoteLink app connects owners to their cars no matter how faraway they are. “This car in Detroit, I could start from here in New York. Or let us say I have the only key to it and my wife in Detroit needs to get in the car, I can unlock it for her from here. ”
The feature harnesses the car’s 4G LTE connectivity (连接性). Up to seven mobile devices can connect to it at any given time.
“We want people to feel as if they are at home within the car, which a lot of people want to be in just for the driving experience, now they can be in there as well, the passengers can be in there as well for the connectivity experience. ”
But what does that connectivity mean for your privacy?
“It is important to have personal information to create that individualized, personalized experience, but certainly it will be a customer’s option. ”
For certain consumers, it may not even be an issue.
“There certainly is a factor where a younger consumer is much more comfortable giving up a lot more privacy and data than an older consumer is, and more likely than not, you are going to see a similar behavior to how they handle their personal privacy within the vehicle. ”
Considering how capable our mobile devices have become, perhaps the only question left to answer is: “Who’s driving? ”
【文章大意】由于移动设备的广泛应用, 制造商推出了装配有车载移动设备的轿车, 进而可从事由智能手机发出指令的动作。
1. Which of the following helps the owner to unlock his car faraway?
A. QRphoto.
B. FordPass, a mobile platform.
C. The Internet.
D. OnStar RemoteLink app.
【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据第五段最后一句可知A项是指允许车主进入停车位置、短文没提到C项, 因此A、C两项都不正确。根据第四段可知B项是寻找停车场和支付停车费用的移动平台, 也不正确。根据第六、七段可知D项是远程控制车辆的软件, 因此D项正确。
2. What does the underlined phrase “rolling out” mean?
A. Moving by rolling. B. Leaving.
C. Bringing out. D. Running.
【解析】选C。词义猜测题。四个选项的语义分别是: A. 滚动; B. 离开; C. 推出, 生产出; D. 奔跑。根据划线词组前后句意可知, 只有C项“推出, 生产出”, 符合题意。

B. equipped with mobile devices through which to keep you connected
C. equipped with FordPass connecting connects owners to their cars

【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据短文可知connected cars指的是装配有移动设备的轿车, 这样的轿车不仅使你在车内与外界保持联系, 也可使车主远程与轿车保持联系。因此B项正确。
4. Judging from the last paragraph, we can conclude that mobile devices installed in cars ________.
A. are quite capable to do everything except driving
B. can do almost everything, let alone drive
C. are so capable that they are able to drive
D. are so capable that they might drive soon
【解析】选D。推理判断题。根据短文最后一句可知: 鉴于车载移动设备功能如此强大, 唯一待回答的问题是谁在驾驶轿车(是人还是移动设备)? 故D正确。

答案：disobey 由句子结构和语境可知，此处填表示否定含义的动词作谓语。disobey “不服从；违抗”。由“主将从现”原则可知，用一般现在时。

，针对大一的学生上大学之后存在一段的迷茫期，他们之所以迷茫，是因为他们没有奋斗的目标，是因为没有班主任在每天的早自习对他们进行了教育，以往他们的学习目标性都十分的明确，小学目的就是升入一个比较好的高中，上初中是为了上比较好的高中，上高中为了去一个比较好的大学。可真的到大学了，他们究竟应该怎么办不知道了?他们缺少一定的奋斗目标，在这个特殊的心理时期，我给他们开了主题班团会，给他们专题讲授职业生活规划，帮他们一起确定自己在大学的奋斗目标。让他们觉得原来的那个爱唠叨的班主任还在，还是有人管他们的。我个人觉得，大一时期是大学四年非常重要的一个时期，也是基础，是需要认真对待的，所以在每天固定课室的早读、晚修我都非常重视，除找同学谈心外，更有重点的进行主题教育活动，使大家尽量避免懒散，养成良好的个人学习、生活、工作习惯。所以大一，我主要是从养成教育入手，有针对性的对大一新生进行养成教育、校情校貌教育、安全教育、心理教育、适应性教育、为人处世教育等。(二)谈心工作 大学生心理问题一直都是辅导员工作的重中之重，大学生的整合程度相对来说较低，他们个人与班级并没有联系起来的纽带，对于大学生日常生活最重要之一的教室是一个流动是场所，就像一个临时停靠站一样，在这停两站，明天又在不同的地方上课。没有固定的教室就没有一个家，个人永远是个人，他们和集体之间没有联系，更不要说纽带了，由此可以看出，缺乏一定的社会整合使大学生感觉自己没有归属感，没有集体责任感，没有了学生人人向往的家，向往的那份信念，他们没有一个统一的思想。虽然他们现在有固定的课室，但也只是相对稳定而已。 为此我以寝室、班级、特殊学生等为单位在我的学生中进行了谈心工作，和学生们聊学习，聊生活，聊兴趣爱好，在大家发言中留意每一个学生的状况，一旦发现问题及时解决。在谈心过程中我也会和大家分享我的大学寝室生活，讲讲发生在我身边的故事，让每一名同学在寝室中首先找到自己的家，让他们觉得自己不再孤单。在开展班级团日活动、主题班会的过程中，又让同学以寝室为单位出节目，通过这一形式，让每一个寝室在班级这个集体中找到自己的归属。(三)深入沟通 坚持“三个深入”和“两个沟通”的工作理念。三个深入”即经常深入到课堂、经常深入到寝室、经常深入到班级。“两个沟通”，即经常和学生沟通，经常和学生家长沟通。利用自己住校的便利条件，经常深入寝室，与学生进行沟通，及时发现学生在寝室生活中出现的问题，和各位班委一同解决。定期与学生家长进行电话沟通，将学生在校各方面情况向家长进行反馈，与家长一起把小孩教育好，使小孩在各方面得到很好的发展。 管理学家说：“高级管理者，引导人的思想。低级管理者，管理人的行为。”作为一名辅导员，十分注重学生思想政治教育工作。主要从以下三个方面开展工作。(一)班委带头，学生跟进 作为一名专职辅导员，我清楚的认识到，我所带领的不仅是普通大学生，其中绝大部分是青年团员，还有部分党员，对他们要注重政治意识的培养和提高。在新生入学不久后，他们部分参加了学院团课的学习，在第二期系举办的团学干部培训中又有一部分同学参与，通过各种学习和培训，使班级的凝聚力和向心力不断增强，使得班委在实际工作中，也得心应用，不但使每一次活动都开展的好，而且在活动过程
