 Have you noticed your life becoming a little easier? Now,when you go to a certain shopping mall,you can enjoy its free Wi-Fi there. When you want to take a taxi,you can book one with your phone. In fact,all these can be seen as the basic parts of a smart city.

 The idea of a smart city was brought up by US company IBM in 2010. Generally,a smart city is a city that uses digital technologies such as the Internet to improve city planning,save money and resources,and make our life convenient. How smart can a city be? Here are great examples that we can learn from.

 In 2009, Dubuque became the first smart city in the US. The city used smart water meters to take the place of traditional water meters. They can detect (探测) water waste and leakage (泄漏) and send data to let the house owner know. The same system is used for other city resources like electricity and natural gas. This way,people know how they use their resources and are glad to help reduce waste.

 Santander in Spain also gives us a look at the future. If people point a phone toward a nearby bus stop, the phone immediately shows all bus lines that serve the stop as well as their arrival times. The government organized a research team and provided an App (应用程序) that collects data on almost everything: light, temperature,and the movements of cars and people. Opening the App near a supermarket provides immediate information on special offers.

11. According to the passage,which of the following is RIGHT?

14. The example of Santander shows the use of smart systems in aspects (方面) EXCEPT      .

五、任务型阅读理解。（10分）

Do you often put off doing something that you should be doing? It' s a bad habit called procrastination(拖延症).

The 2-Minute Rule is a method of ____①____ with the problem and the goal is to make it easier for you to get started on the things you should be doing. It includes two parts. Part 1 comes from David Allen' s book, “Getting Things Done”. It' s surprising how many things we put off that we could get done in two minutes or less, for example, taking out the litter, cleaning up your desk and sending an e-mail. If a task takes less than two minutes to complete, then follow the rule and do it right now.

Can all of your goals be achieved in less than two minutes? Of course not. ____②____, every goal can be started in 2 minutes or less. And that' s the purpose behind the rule' s second part. Once you start doing something, it' s easier to continue doing it. The most important part of any new habit is getting started--not just the first time, but each time. I love the 2-Minute Rule because it accepts the idea that all good things happen once you get started.

Want to become a better writer? Just write one sentence(2-Minute Rule), and you' ll probably find yourself writing for an hour.

Want to make reading a habit? Just read the first page of a new book(2-Minute Rule), and before you know it, you' ve read the first ten pages.

Use next 120 seconds to get one thing done. Go!
