One day, Anna Du was walking along Castle Island's beach. She found there were lots of plastic pieces in the sea and some were too small to pick up. She began to think about how to solve the problem.
First, she did a survey. The result showed there were already 150 million tons of plastic in the sea, and every year there would be another 8 million tons. She realized something must be done. So she decided to invent a robot that could work under water. She tried again and again. At last, her ROV came out. It could move through water and pick up plastic pieces, especially the tiny ones.
With this ROV, Anna Du took part in the Broadcom Masters competition, which is one of the top STEM competitions. It's for young students around the world. This year, more than 5,000 students were interested in the competition, but only a few got the chance. Anna Du's ROV caught a lot of attention. It had a camera with three different kinds of lights which could find plastic pieces easily. Dana Yoerger, an expert, said,“The ROV is nicely done for a 12-year-old girl. It's very clever."
In fact, Anna Du is always learning to solve the world problems and her parents are always supporting her. At the age of five, she began to go to workshops to learn engineering skills.When she was asked about the future plan, she said, “I want to be an engineer because I like building things. I think many world problems can be solved with new inventions. Right now, I'm just caring about plastic problems because there's still a long way to go.”

When asked the question"What would you do with a million dollars " most people likely to give similar answers:"Quit my job," "Buy my dream house," or "Go traveling. In reality, a million dollars may not really be that much money. Twenty years ago, it might have been possible to realize these dreams. However, things are not so easy today.
In most countries, prices for everything from food to transport to university fees have firmly increased over the years. Housing prices in particular have risen greatly. The main reason is that the population has increased, but there are fewer homes available for sale or rent. For example, in the U.S. the average price of a new home in 1990 was $149,800. The average price in 2010 was 272,900. With increases like that, you can see why owning property is considered a good long-term investment(投资).
Inflation(通货膨胀)is another important reason for the rise in the cost of living. Over the last 150 years, as prices have gone up, the value of money has gone down, so we now need more money to buy things. Due to this increased cost of living and a tendency(趋势)for younger generations to spend more, people are actually saving less than ever before.
In order to live well after you retire, you should begin saving as early as possible. Experts suggest that after you stop working, you will need 70 to 75 percent of your salary to live on every month. People also have to spend more on health care because they live longer; many people in developed countries now live into their 80s or 90s.

increasing housing prices B.inflation
retirement D.all of above
How much does the average price of a new home increase from 1990 to 2010
A.$149,800 B.$50,000 C.$123,100 D.$272,900

C.Tell us to buy a house and live alone.
D.Tell us not to believe in the money.

A few days ago, I received a letter from my Aunt Lorraine. It was a handwritten letter thanking me for some Shanghai cookies I had sent her. Aunt Lorraine is ninety-one years old and she has wonderful manners. That is why she sent me the "thank you" letter. She also has wonderful handwriting. Her penmanship(书法)is smooth. Each individual letter and word is perfectly formed. She is a pleasure to read.
Aunt Lorraine was educated half a century ago. At that time, penmanship was considered an important skill. Now, it is the age of e-mail and social media. Few people have the time or desire to practice their penmanship or write letters by hand.
This is unfortunate. In my view, good penmanship still counts. This is especially true in school. If you want to get good grades on your essays(短文),neatness will be important. Your essay might be full of good ideas. However, messy handwriting can turn an A into a B. Awful handwriting can get you a D!
Good penmanship has other benefits, too. Since it's a skill, it trains your brain and develops your learning abilities. It also helps you organize your thoughts. And, believe it or not, that slow process of pushing a pen along paper improves your reading, spelling and even your pronunciation of English.
Apart from all these educational benefits, good penmanship also has personal benefits. A neatly written letter to a friend is something he or she will treasure forever. A letter that looks as if a chicken had danced across the paper will be quickly thrown away. I have kept the letter from my Aunt Lorraine. It's a great treasure!
Why did Aunt Lorraine write a letter to the author
A.To express her thanks. B.To show her wonderful manners.
C.To make herself pleased. D.To set a good example to the author.
12. What is the Chinese meaning of the underlined word“counts'"in Paragraph 3
A.计数在内 B.被接受 C.有指望 D.有价值
13. According to the author, which of the following is the benefit of neat handwriting
①Making new friends. ②Getting good grades on your essays
③Organizing your thoughts ④Improving your English pronunciation.
⑤Making your essay full of good ideas.
A.②④⑤ B.①③④ C.②③④ D.①②⑤
14. The underlined part in the last paragraph is used to describe
A.a boring letter B.a great treasure
C.bad handwriting D.good penmanship
15. What does the author want to do by writing this article
A.To express the importance of neat handwriting.
B.To share her pleasure of hearing from her aunt.
C.To talk about her experiences of practicing penmanship.
D.To encourage people to write letters hand instead of e-mailing.

Have you ever thought about how people get their names Let's learn a little history about family names in North America. 16 Their first name is given to them by their parents. Their last name is the same name that their parents have. It is the family name.
Long ago, however, people only have one name. A man could be called simply John or Peter. A woman could be called Mary or Elizabeth. 17 Everyone was confused, so second names were needed.
Children began taking their father's name as a last name. In this way, children of John were called, for example, Peter and Mary Johnson. Names such as Jackson, Anderson and Davidson came into use.
18 For example, a family living in a village with many green trees and plants might take the name Green. If they lived in a town called Moor, they might be called the Moores.
Sometimes, people got their names from the way they looked. 19 If people in a family had dark hair, the family was called the Blacks or the Browns.
People also took their names from the kind of work they did. A person who sewed(缝纫)clothing was named Taylor. 20
It is interesting to know the history of names.
A. A tall person was perhaps called Long.
B. People in North America have two names.
C. A person who had a very good voice was named Singer.
D. Some people got their names from the places where they lived.
E. After some time, there were too many people with the same name.
