ClassDojo is one of a few virtual classroom style learning apps. Using this app, parents, students, and teachers can all interact with one another.

When American Matt Stopera’s iPhone went missing, he thought, “Well, bad luck. These things happen.” One year later, Matt’s misfortune has turned to good fortune as he found a new friend and became an Internet celebrity in China.
You may already be familiar with this story since it spread on Weibo for weeks during the Spring Festival, but it started when Matt began seeing photos of a Chinese man in front of an orange tree on his photo stream (照片流). He wrote about it and some Chinese readers decided to see if they could find the mysterious man. They did. It turns out that “Brother Orange,” as he became known, owned a restaurant in Guangdong and the iPhone he was using, a gift from a nephew, was Matt’s old phone.
Matt and Brother Orange began messaging each other and a friendship blossomed with Matt invited to China to feast at Brother Orange’s restaurant on his delicious Hakkacuisine (客家菜). Matt was also overwhelmed by the warmth of the millions of Chinese who were following the story. When he opened a Weibo account he had 22 million followers almost overnight, many of them inviting him to their hometowns and offering to be his tour guide.
Matt’s story is another example of how powerful the Internet and social networking has become in bringing people together. But there is a darker side to this story and that involves how Matt’s missing iPhone turned up in China. Over three million smart-phones were stolen in America last year. Because of identification numbers, these phones can’t be used in America, so they are sent to other countries and many of them end up in China, where they can be re-activated. This is why Matt and Brother Orange could share the same iCloud account.
You should keep this in mind when buying a second-hand phone and check the serial number to see that it has not been stolen. Finding a friend through social networking is wonderful, but using a stolen phone isn’t really the best way to make the connection.
34. What happened to Matt one year after he lost his phone
A. He was fortunate enough to get his phone back.
B. He became a famous figure on American website.
C He gained friendship and became popular in China.
D. He lost another phone because of his iCloud account.
35. How did Matt and Brother Orange establish their friendship
A. Brother Orange’s photo was found on the Internet.
B. Chinese readers tried their best to find Brother Orange.
C. Brother Orange received an iPhone from his nephew.
D. Brother Orange contacted Matt and invited him to China.
36. How did Matt’s followers react to his Weibo
A. cautiously B. enthusiastically C. anxiously D. humorously
37. What does the story indicate
A. It’s wonderful to find a friend through social net-working.
B. A stolen phone is the best way to make connections.
C. People should be careful when buying a second-hand phone.
D. Matt and Brother Orange set a good example to us.
C
The key to a successful garage sale is to get the word out. The best way of advertising your sale is to place an ad in the local newspaper. If you have a city and neighborhood paper, make sure you advertise in both. The ad should be large enough to stand out. It should also include information on where the sale is located with directions, the “hot" items you're selling and the time when the sale will start and end. An ad should be placed at least two days before the sale and run until the day of your event. That way people can plan their route to the sale in advance.
Signs must be another great way to inform your community. Post them where people gather, such as stores and community centers. Some businesses have a central bulletin board, which is the best place to advertise. Other places to post are at the local college or university campus. This is especially helpful if your sale is happening in August or early September when students have returned to school and are looking for cheap finds.
Post signs round your neighborhood. You should also place both ads and direction signs, especially if you're located on a side street without a major presence. Signs will attract and direct people. Just make sure your print is in bold letters and use large direction signs so that people can read the information from the front seat of their car.
38. You should place an ad at least two days before the sale so that people can ________.
A. get enough cash for the sale B. compare prices of the items
C. select the items they will buy D. decide on their route beforehand
39. Why should signs be posted in a community center
A Schools are nearby. B. There are many stores.
C. Students often meet there. D. More people gather there.
40. What advice is given for printing the signs according to the last paragraph
A. Colored signs are preferred. B. Bold letters should be used.
C. Large pictures should be included. D. Phone numbers should be provided.
41. The best title for the passage might be ________.
A. Advertising Garage Sales B. Advantages of Garage Sales
C. Importance of Garage Sales D. Printing Ads for Garage Sales
D
Many people think daydreaming is bad for their emotions and has negative effects on their life and those around them. It makes adapting to life very hard and brains work less effectively.
Contrary to common ideas, the brains of people who are daydreaming might not stop working, but may be working harder, new research has shown. Scientists scanned the brains of people lying inside magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines, as they pushed buttons or rested in turn. The scans showed that the “default (默认的) network” deep inside a human brain becomes more active during daydreaming.
In a surprise finding, the scans also showed strong activity in the executive network, the outlying region of the brain associated with complex problem-solving, says Professor Kalina Christoff, who is a co-author of the study. “People assume that when the mind wanders away, it just gets turned off—but we show the opposite. When it wanders, it is turned on.” says Christoff.
The findings, published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, suggest, “People who let themselves daydream might not think in the same focused way as when performing a goal-oriented task, but they bring in more mental and brain resources,” says Christoff.
F. Diane Barth said at Psychology Today that the more we daydream, the more our brain is able to hold onto the task when we are being bombarded (轰炸) from all sides by all kinds of noises, information input, and conflicting demands. You're not trying to escape the task at hand; rather, you're trying to get rid of all of the information and stimuli (刺激物) that could pose as bothers.
According to Christoff, people typically spend one third of their waking time daydreaming. “It is a big part of our lives, but it has been largely ignored by science,” she says. “The study is the first to use MRIs to study brain activity during spontaneous thoughts and subjective experiences. Until now the only way is to use self-reports that are not always reliable.”
42. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A. Scientists. B. Scans. C. MRI machines. D. Study subjects.
43. The findings by Christoff show daydreaming ________.
A. may help us get relaxed B. may be beneficial to our health
C. may use less energy than focusing D. may help us arrive at solutions faster
44. Which of the following may Barth agree with
A Daydreaming provides us with many stimuli.
B. Daydreaming is actually an act of concentration.
C. Daydreaming can make us forget unhappy things.
D. Daydreaming reminds us of more useful information.
45. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. MRIs are reliable to study brain activity.
B. People should spend more time daydreaming.
C. More studies about daydreaming need to be done.
D. People should make full use of daydreaming time.
