Have you ever taken photos by using mobile phones with selfie sticks (自拍杆) 11
However, a pair of US artists from New Mexico, Aric Snee and Jutin Crowe believe they have invented a better one and they call it "selfie arm". 12 It makes those people in the pictures to be holding hands with a loved one.
The pair say it offers a far better experience than using a straight stick. The selfie arm makes people feel they are not alone when they take photos. 13 They think their invention solve the main problem that the selfie stick has— people look alone while they are taking pictures of themselves with great interests. The product, at present, just an art project and a model, conveniently provides you a welcoming arm. 14 The pair say they are fascinated by these new ideas.
The "selfie arm" is made of fiberglass. 15
The project that they work on show the growing selfie stick phenomenon (现象) directly and the increasing need for narcissism (自恋) and Internet agreement.
A. This new invention is a small, useful, and clever-designed tool.
B. And better yet in the future, it'll take in a friendly way and never get angry or upset.
C. It seems that they are together with their friends.
D. For better or worse, they have taken the world by storm.

阅读下面的短文,并根据短文内容回答所提问题。
The Double Ninth Festival is a special day for older people in China. It started long ago. The festival is on lunar September 9th. On this day, people show love and respect to their grandparents.
There are many ways in which Chinese people express their respect. When an older person enters a room, everyone stands. People are introduced from the oldest to the youngest. When we present a book to an older person, two hands are used. Young people always offer their seats to older people on a crowded subway or bus.
Respecting older people is a tradition in China. That's because the Chinese know that older people have knowledge and experience that young people can learn. Chinese people are proud of being old.
In Western countries, however, older people seldom think they are old. They are called “seniors” instead of "old people”. They’d rather do everything themselves. Even after retirement (退休) they take up hobbies, part-time jobs and new activities to keep their bodies working well.
Westerners respect their older people, too. Usually, seniors don't have to buy tickets for trains and buses. They are given discounts (打折) in stores and restaurants.
But Western seniors don't often live with their children—they live alone. For holidays, the family usually gather at the grandparents' home, and a great smile and a warm hug for their parents are enough for grown children to show their respect.
16.When is the double ninth Festival
17.Where it is a tradition to respect older people
18.What can the young learn from older people
19. Can seniors in Western countries take the trains for free
20. How do Western grown children show their respect

This afternoon, when I was looking for a self-improvement (自我修养) book, I found an aged folder (文件夹). In this folder, there were some of the examination papers I’d taken during my pre-university days. They were on economics (经济学) , a subject that I didn't really like much then.
I laughed at the silly mistakes I made as I looked through the papers. And memories of the past came to my mind. I saw myself sitting at one of the study tables, working hard for some of my life goals. Back then, it was popular for most students to set life goals, because they thought it was most important. It was during those times that I first started to set goals for myself. I didn't know much about goal setting then. I didn't use any goal tracking (跟踪) tools, either. All I knew was that I had to go to university. There was no other way that I could give myself. To go through my lecture (演讲) notes, I didn’t take breaks. For more revision with my classmates, I stayed back late. One time, I missed the school lock-out hours and I had to climb school gates in order to leave. It was perhaps this attitude (态度) that ignited my decision to go through what I had to do to get this far.
Yes, it may have been hard. But the sweet taste of victory experienced at the point of receiving my final results was so wonderful that I would never forget it for the rest of my life.
I closed the folder and dropped it into the dustbin (垃圾箱) in the room. It's time to get kicking with my next goal. And by writing this, I know I’m getting closer.
26.When the author (作者) looked through the papers in the folder, he .

B. laughed at the silly mistakes he made
C. was surprised by the silly mistakes he made
27.When the author first started to get goals for himself, he .
A. use many goal tracking tools
B. didn't use any goal tracking tools
C. use a goal tracking tool
28.Why did the author stay back late after school
A. To be prepared to enter university.
B. To get the chance of climbing school gates.
C. To make his teacher pay attention to him.
29.The underlined word “ignited” means in the passage.
A. reduced (减少) B. balanced (平衡) C. raised
30.What can we learn about the author from the last paragraph
A. He has achived all the goals .
B. He isn’t ready for the next goal.
C. He is ready for the next goal.

“The number of our smartphones is still growing,” Yu said, “and our company is expecting an increase of 30% in smartphone shipments (出货量). It'll be a great success."
Although Huawei's smartphones sold well in Western Europe and China, the market in the US is another example. Yu said that the company was “so late” to the US. However, we are trying hard to raise our market share there in the next few years.
