“Life is speeding up. Everyone is getting unwell.”

They leap from helicopters or speeding boats, bringing aid to swimmers who get into trouble off Italy’s popular beaches. For these dog lifeguards, the doggie paddle （狗刨式游法）does just fine. These “lifedogs” tow a buoy(救生衣) that victims can grab, or a raft they can sit on to be towed back to shore, and unlike their human counterparts(与对方地位相当的人), they can easily jump from helicopters and speeding boats to reach swimmers in trouble. With millions flocking(人群) to Italy’s crowded beaches each summer, the Italian Coast Guard says it rescues about 3,000 people every year — and their dog helpers are credited with saving several lives. It takes three years for the canines to reach expert rescue status, and currently 300 dogs are fully trained for duty, said Roberto Gasbarri, who co-ordinates the Italian School of Canine Lifeguards program at a centre outside of Rome in the seaside town of Civitavecchia. “Dogs are useful in containing the physical fatigue（疲劳） of the lifeguard, to increase the speed at which casualties（遇难者） are retrieved（找到并衔回）, to increase the security of both the casualty and of the lifeguard,” Gasbarri said. The Civitavecchia centre is one of a dozen around the country for the school founded more than 20 years ago in the northern province of Bergamo by Ferruccio Pilenga, whose first trainee was his own Newfoundland. The school will train any breed（品种）, as long as they weigh at least 30 kilograms, but Labradors, Newfoundlands and golden retrievers are most commonly used because of their natural instinct for swimming. Each dog works in tandem with（同 ……合作） a human lifeguard, who also acts as the animal’s trainer. 小题1:Which of the following can act as the best title fo the passage? A．Dogs to the Rescue B．Dogs Are Good at Doggie Paddle C．The Wonderful Performance of Dogs D．Dogs: Our Loyal Friends 小题2:What advantage do these life-dogs have over human lifeguards in a rescue? A．Dog can swim very fast B．Dogs can finish rescue work with ease. C．Dogs can finish the great work free of charge. D．Dogs can easily be trained 小题3: Which of the following is TRUE about the Civitavecchia center according to the text? A．Any breed can be trained there. B．The ones who have the gift for swimming are welcomed. C．After a better training, the dogs can work alone. D．It is the only place for training dog lifeguards in the school. 小题4:What does the writer want to tell us in the 4 th paragraph? A．Without the dog lifeguards, 3,000 people would lose their lives every year. B．The buautiful beaches attract millions of people every year. C．Dog lifeguards play an important part in a rescue. D．Italy is a famous place of interest.

“Life is speeding up. Everyone is becoming unwell.” This may sound like something someone would say today. But in fact, an unwell person who lived in Rome in AD 53 wrote it.
We all love new inventions. They are exciting, amazing and can even change our lives.
But have all these developments really improved the quality of our lives?
Picture this: You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the telephone is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to get it done.
Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who have no telephones, no cars, not even any electricity often seem to be happier? Perhaps that is because they live simpler lives.
One family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today. The grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons, Benjamin, 10, and Thomas, 7, spent nine weeks in a 1940s house. They had no washing machine, microwave, computer or mobile phone.
The grandmother, Lyn, said, “The more things you have, the more difficult life becomes.” The boys said they fought less. Probably, they said, because there was less to fight over, such as their computer. Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a trendy, been-drinking granny, to one who cooked things.
26. The writer uses the quote(引语) at the beginning of the story to____________.
A. tell us the truth about life
B. tell us what life was like a long time ago
C. point out what causes such a thing to happen
D. point out that you experience some big problems and they may be the same
27. In the passage the writer describes a picture to show that new inventions ____________.
A. have stopped our lives
B. have improved the quality of our lives
C. may make people feel very happy
D. may bring some people trouble
28. The family chose to spend some time in a 1940s house because______________.
A. they loved to live simple lives
B. they wanted to know how people lived without modern inventions
C. they were troubled by modern inventions
D. living in a different time would be a lot of fun for them
29. The passage is mainly about ____________.
A. problems with technology
B. improvements in our lives caused by technology
C. changes happening to technology
D. the importance of technology

Rise in consumer goods sales has the effect of speeding up the economy.

the speeding up of life in many areas such as travel and communication has negtive effects on society at all levels – individual,national and global.to what extent do you agree or disagree?
there is no denying the fact that our life is speeding up in many aspects such as travel and communication.many people worried that it has negtive effects on society at all levels – individual,national and global.as far as i am concerned,it has distinct effects on these 3 levels,for the following reasons.
firstly,accelerating our life is harmful to individuals.this is mainly because that it is intolerant for people living under huge pressure on both mentally and physically.a recent survey illustrates that three more times numer of people suicide for bankcrupt or unemployment than that of 10 years ago.furthmore,to get used to fast lifestyle,people have to give up the traditional cooking,and grab the mc donal’s instead.in fact,junk food saves our time while shorten our lives.
secondly,nations will benefit from the speeding up of life.fast travelling and communication make the society operate effectively and efficiently.thereby nations become richer.for example,it took about 6 days by ship to export 5 tons of apples from china to singapore,but all we need is 4 hours by air transport.as result,*** will try harder to quicken out life,for time is money.
finally,the speeding of lige is a double edged sword regarding the global.in the one hand,the faster people spin,the more global economy is stimulated.thus it speeds up globalizition.in another hand,globalization is badly threatening the environment.we have to keep the fast development under surveillance and regulated by authorities.unless we are returned by some more natural disasters such as tsunami and earthquakes.
all in all,from what mentioned above,we can draw a conclusion that althrough speeding up of lige has lots of negtive effects on society,i tend to think that we can still take some advantages from that.

“Life is speeding up. Everyone is getting unwell.” This may sound like something someone would say today. But in fact, an unknown citizen who lived in Rome in AD 52 wrote it. We all love new inventions. They are exciting, amazing and can even change our lives. But have all these developments really improved the quality of our lives? Picture this: You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the television is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up al l night to get it done. How calm and happy do you feel? Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed and tired.
