I was hungry because after a full day of exploring the German town, I ate only a pizza. I'm comfortable travelling through a country where I don't speak the language ,but I would almost rather go hungry than sit in a restaurant cating alone.
After wandering around the town for hours,I finally chose an Italian restaurant that seemed friendly enough.I know I like traditional German food,but a plate of spaghetti for only six euros(欧元)was not to miss.So I nervously entered.As I stood there,I noticed all the happy families and friends eating together.The hostess found a small table for me next to the front entrance.
"Great,"I thought,"now people can look at this friendless traveller as they enter." Then I started to wonder how many of the customers might mistake me for the hostess and how much this would interrupt my meal. Then a woman,whose name is now lost to memory, invited me to have dinner with her and her family.I couldn't believe it! This was the German friendliness I had read about.
I walked to their table. I can be quite shy when talking to new people. I also started to wonder how this would work.The meal began awkwardly.The woman's two children mostly stared at me.

A new app promises to help Barcelona residents find the shadiest route between two places to avoid extreme heat.
Users can choose the most direct route,a shady route that may take a little longer,or they can set the app to a special mode,which avoids direct sunlight at all costs.Users can also use the app to find drinking fountains,or places to shelter from the sun.
The app uses a tool called Lidar to create high-resolution models of ground,accurate to within 10 cm.This information is combined with data on the sun's path to work out where is in shade at any given time of the day.
Barcelona is looking to use green spaces and trees as part of its efforts to relieve the effects of global heating. The city's 20-year tree planting plan aims to increase the proportion of land covered by trees from 25% to 30%.
Heatwaves kill more people than any other climate risk. According to C40,a climate leadership group made up of 97 cities around the world,extreme heat events in cities can lead to a 14% increase in death rates,as well as lower workforce productivity and damage infrastructure(基础设施)such as roads and rail lines.
Jon Burke,who was responsible for a massive expansion of tree planting in the district,said."I think we should view this particular kind of app as a temporary measure to reduce the impacts of extreme heat...while cities rapidly invest in urban canopy(树冠层) cover and broader green infrastructure.”
9.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about
A.The designer of the app. B.The function of the app.
C.The potential users of the app. D.The working principle of the app.
10.What does the underlined word "relieve" in Paragraph 4 mean

11.Which of the following statements is TRUE
A.The app is as a ever-lasting measure to reduce the effect of extreme heat.
B.Jon Burke was responsible for a large scale of tree planting.
C.The app stresses the importance of road construction.
D.The app warns people of more upcoming disasters.
12.What can we infer from the last paragraph
A.The district needs to be expanded.
B.Jon Burke has a great sense of duty.
C.Investment in tree planting is a wise choice.
D.The app is powerful enough to cope with heatwaves.
