Down House, home of Charles Darwin
Fun fact
Charles Darwin, his wife, Emma, and their children lived at Down House for 40 years from 1838. Several rooms appear as if the family still live here. Upstairs, an exhibition showcases Darwin’s voyage aboard HMS Beagle, including a reconstruction of his cabin. Outside, visitors can explore the sheltered gardens which Darwin used as an open-air laboratory, and the greenhouse in which he panted rare plants and devised botanical experiments.
No room at Down House escaped Darwin’s experiments. In the drawing room he once placed a jar of earthworms on the grand piano to see whether they could hear.

The R8 Bus from Orpington stops nearby (except Sundays) or the 146 Bus from Bromley North and South terminates (终点到站) in Downe village, half a mile from the property. The nearest railway stations are Chelsfield or Orpington, about four miles away.
Value for money
It’s ￡12 (adult), ￡7.20 (child), or ￡31.30 (a family with 2 children above 5 years old). Under 5 years old go free.
Opening hours
Open daily 10am-6pm from 30 March to 30 September; daily 10am-5pm between 1 to 31 October. Opening times vary through the winter (check website for details).

LOVE it or hate it, there is no escape from Internet slang (俚语).
This is especially true among young people in some English-speaking countries such as Australia the UK, and the US. These days, if they haven’t caught up with the latest popular Internet slang, chances are that they often feel out of the loop on social media.
Take these posts by The Washington Post for example: “David Bowie dying is totes tradge” and “When Cookie hugged Jamal, it made me totes emosh”. What on earth do these mean Well, “totes” is a short form of the adverb “totally”. Likewise, “tradge” means “tragic” and “emosh” means “emotional”. It seems that for millennials (those born between the early 1980s and late 1990s), typing in this abbreviated (缩写的) form is not only time saving but also cool. Many millennial slang words are formed by what linguists call the practice of totesing—the systematic abbreviation of words, according to a recent article in The Washington Post.
Some people think that millennial slang affects the English language negatively. However, Melboune University linguist Rosey Billington doesn’t agree.
“When you are able to use language in a creative way, you show you are linguistically knowledgeable because you know the language rules well enough to use words in a different way,” Billington told .au. Her view is backed up by two linguists, Lauren Spradlin, and Taylor Jones, from the City University of New York and the University of Pennsylvania respectively. The two believe that totes-speak is a highly-organized system that can only be used by speakers who have mastered English pronunciation.
“The ability to break apart syllables and mix different sounds together is key. Totesing is about sounds, and it follows the sometimes-complicated sound system of English,” Jones told The Washington Post. Totesing is not random. On the contrary, it has strict rules to follow. You need to be very fluent in the English language to be able to understand totes-speak.
24. The underlined phrase “out of the loop” in the 2nd paragraph probably means ________.
A. accepted easily by the public B. bored with popular things
C. comfortable with something new D. unaware of certain information
25. How does the author introduce the phenomenon of totesing
A. By making comparisons. B. By listing examples.
C. By giving figures. D. By analyzing cause and effect.
26. What is Lauren Spradlin’s attitude toward the practice of totesing
A. Worried. B. Cautious. C. Positive. D. Critical.
27. Which of the following might Taylor Jones agree with
A. Internet slang is mostly created by professional linguists.
B. Totesing is mainly about making words easier to pronounce.
C. Totesing requires speakers to master the language very well.
D. Totesing should be promoted since it is cool, creative, and time-saving.
C
Bees have evolved to be skillful flying builders. Worker insects team up to finish a complex hive (蜂房) that ends up being many times their size. It is these insect building teams that inspired Mirko Kovac, a roboticist at Imperial College London, to develop a way to improve the flexibility of 3D printing.
A typical 3D printer is limited by the range of its nozzle (喷嘴), and can only make objects smaller than itself. Dr Kovac’s team has removed these limits by giving the printer nozzle wings. They designed a system of flying robots that is composed of two types of drones (无人机): builders and scanners. The builders carry the 3D-printing nozzle, while the scanners are equipped with cameras that monitor the building process.
The building process switches between builders and scanners, layer by layer, printing and adjusting until the structure is complete. To start, the builder hovers over its area of operation and begins to release a jet of building material as it moves skillfully along its flight path. Once the builder robot has sprayed a layer of material, the scanner robot flies over and inspects the progress. The system then calculates the next layer that the builder should make, while also correcting any errors.
The researchers tested the system by building both a large cylinder (圆筒) made of foam and a small cylinder made of the cement mixture. The tasks were difficult because simply making circles on top of other circles would not achieve the perfect alignment (对齐) that is necessary to ensure maximum stability.
Dr Kovac’s robots made it with flying colours—the cylinders were built to be within 5 mm of the width and height of the planned structures, meeting British building standard. While these robots have been shown to be capable of manufacturing (制造), Dr Kovac says their bread and butter will probably be, initially, in repair. The flying robots can operate anywhere, making them ideal for fixing things m dangerous or inaccessible places. These robots could be used more quickly, cheaply, and with less risk to humans. Thinking more long term. Dr Kovac even sees a potential future for his constriction robots building on the surfaces of the Moon or Mars.
28. What inspires the design of Dr Kovac’s team
A. Bees building larger hives than their size.
B. Bees flying in a more flexible way.
C. Bees growing bigger than the hive.
D. Bees working together as a team.
29. What is the feature of typical 3D printers
A. They expand the range of printing.
B. They make adjustment while printing.
C. They are more flexible than traditional ones.
D. They make objects smaller than themselves.
30. What is the function of the builders in the building process
A. Correcting any errors. B. Spraying construction material.
C. Carrying the scanning camera. D. Monitoring the building process.
31. What might the flying robots first be used to do mainly according to Dr Kovac
A. Manufacture products. B. Construct buildings.
C. Repair damage in risky places. D. Monitor air pollution in the sky.

Remember Lion King Many of us walked out of that animation movie being in awe of (钦佩) the storyline, the songs, the colours and the animation. However, how many of us would have given thought to the work done by the animators
32 Now, multiply the amount of work it takes to produce a 90-minute movie. Mind-blowing, is it pot The patience, skills and technical training required are a lot more demanding (高要求的) than a non-animated movie.
One of the greatest soft skills an animator can have will be the ability to work together in a team. 33 Just as it takes a village to bring up a child, it takes a number of people to create an animated film.
The team of animators usually use computer software and work with artists to create the magic and make the characters “come to life.” A successful production accurately captures (捕捉) the characters’ wide range of expressions, among other aspects. 34 It’s usually after a great amount of time spent studying acting and observational skills. The animators study body movements to create realistic and specific emotions and reactions in their characters.
Animation work usually differs from pre-production to production stages. Some animators are involved in developing and visualizing (可视化)the storyline. Some animators are involved in keeping the characters’ personalities and core (核心的) positions constant throughout the production. 35 At times, the movements of the actors and actresses are captured and then mapped on to the animation drawings.
Do animators go to a school to learn animation first Ideally, yes. It is highly recommended that animator-lovers get a college degree first. If you are interested in becoming an animator, do not stop there. Bravely approach production houses for internship (实习) opportunities. 36
A. Animation is never a solo effort.
B. These expressions are not created overnight.
C. The team will also need to be good communicators.
D. It takes weeks to create a ten-second animation production.
E Animators at the production stage bring the characters to life.
F. An animator with a suitable qualification and experiences is always in demand.
G. Animators are the most sensitive creators when it comes to life and human nature.

“Do you know this boy, Bruno ” he asked in a loud voice.
Bruno’s mouth 47 and he tried to say the word “yes”, but then he realized that he couldn’t because he was feeling just as 48 himself.
“Tell me, Bruno!” shouted Kotler, his face growing red. “I won’t ask you a third time.”
“I’ve 49 seen him before in my life.” said Bruno immediately, “I don’t know him.”
Hearing that, Shmuel wasn’t crying any more, merely staring at the floor and looking as if he was trying to 50 his soul not to live inside his tiny body any more, but to 51 away and sail to the door and rise up into the sky, gliding through the clouds until it was far away.

Down House, home of Charles Darwin
Fun fact
Charles Darwin, his wife, Emma, and their children lived at Down House for 40 years from 1838. Several rooms appear as if the family still live here. Upstairs, an exhibition showcases Darwin’s voyage aboard HMS Beagle, including a reconstruction of his cabin. Outside, visitors can explore the sheltered gardens which Darwin used as an open-air laboratory, and the greenhouse in which he panted rare plants and devised botanical experiments.
No room at Down House escaped Darwin’s experiments. In the drawing room he once placed a jar of earthworms on the grand piano to see whether they could hear.
Getting there
A15-minute drive from the A21/Famborough. Free parking. The R8 Bus from Orpington stops nearby (except Sundays) or the 146 Bus from Bromley North and South terminates (终点到站) in Downe village, half a mile from the property. The nearest railway stations are Chelsfield or Orpington, about four miles away.
Value for money
It’s ￡12 (adult), ￡7.20 (child), or ￡31.30 (a family with 2 children above 5 years old). Under 5 years old go free.
Opening hours
Open daily 10am-6pm from 30 March to 30 September; daily 10am-5pm between 1 to 31 October. Opening times vary through the winter (check website for details).

LOVE it or hate it, there is no escape from Internet slang (俚语).
This is especially true among young people in some English-speaking countries such as Australia the UK, and the US. These days, if they haven’t caught up with the latest popular Internet slang, chances are that they often feel out of the loop on social media.
Take these posts by The Washington Post for example: “David Bowie dying is totes tradge” and “When Cookie hugged Jamal, it made me totes emosh”. What on earth do these mean Well, “totes” is a short form of the adverb “totally”. Likewise, “tradge” means “tragic” and “emosh” means “emotional”. It seems that for millennials (those born between the early 1980s and late 1990s), typing in this abbreviated (缩写的) form is not only time saving but also cool. Many millennial slang words are formed by what linguists call the practice of totesing—the systematic abbreviation of words, according to a recent article in The Washington Post.
Some people think that millennial slang affects the English language negatively. However, Melboune University linguist Rosey Billington doesn’t agree.
“When you are able to use language in a creative way, you show you are linguistically knowledgeable because you know the language rules well enough to use words in a different way,” Billington told .au. Her view is backed up by two linguists, Lauren Spradlin, and Taylor Jones, from the City University of New York and the University of Pennsylvania respectively. The two believe that totes-speak is a highly-organized system that can only be used by speakers who have mastered English pronunciation.
“The ability to break apart syllables and mix different sounds together is key. Totesing is about sounds, and it follows the sometimes-complicated sound system of English,” Jones told The Washington Post. Totesing is not random. On the contrary, it has strict rules to follow. You need to be very fluent in the English language to be able to understand totes-speak.
24. The underlined phrase “out of the loop” in the 2nd paragraph probably means ________.
A. accepted easily by the public B. bored with popular things
C. comfortable with something new D. unaware of certain information
25. How does the author introduce the phenomenon of totesing
A. By making comparisons. B. By listing examples.
C. By giving figures. D. By analyzing cause and effect.
26. What is Lauren Spradlin’s attitude toward the practice of totesing
A. Worried. B. Cautious. C. Positive. D. Critical.
27. Which of the following might Taylor Jones agree with
A. Internet slang is mostly created by professional linguists.
B. Totesing is mainly about making words easier to pronounce.
C. Totesing requires speakers to master the language very well.
D. Totesing should be promoted since it is cool, creative, and time-saving.
C
Bees have evolved to be skillful flying builders. Worker insects team up to finish a complex hive (蜂房) that ends up being many times their size. It is these insect building teams that inspired Mirko Kovac, a roboticist at Imperial College London, to develop a way to improve the flexibility of 3D printing.
A typical 3D printer is limited by the range of its nozzle (喷嘴), and can only make objects smaller than itself. Dr Kovac’s team has removed these limits by giving the printer nozzle wings. They designed a system of flying robots that is composed of two types of drones (无人机): builders and scanners. The builders carry the 3D-printing nozzle, while the scanners are equipped with cameras that monitor the building process.
The building process switches between builders and scanners, layer by layer, printing and adjusting until the structure is complete. To start, the builder hovers over its area of operation and begins to release a jet of building material as it moves skillfully along its flight path. Once the builder robot has sprayed a layer of material, the scanner robot flies over and inspects the progress. The system then calculates the next layer that the builder should make, while also correcting any errors.
The researchers tested the system by building both a large cylinder (圆筒) made of foam and a small cylinder made of the cement mixture. The tasks were difficult because simply making circles on top of other circles would not achieve the perfect alignment (对齐) that is necessary to ensure maximum stability.
Dr Kovac’s robots made it with flying colours—the cylinders were built to be within 5 mm of the width and height of the planned structures, meeting British building standard. While these robots have been shown to be capable of manufacturing (制造), Dr Kovac says their bread and butter will probably be, initially, in repair. The flying robots can operate anywhere, making them ideal for fixing things m dangerous or inaccessible places. These robots could be used more quickly, cheaply, and with less risk to humans. Thinking more long term. Dr Kovac even sees a potential future for his constriction robots building on the surfaces of the Moon or Mars.
28. What inspires the design of Dr Kovac’s team
A. Bees building larger hives than their size.
B. Bees flying in a more flexible way.
C. Bees growing bigger than the hive.
D. Bees working together as a team.
29. What is the feature of typical 3D printers
A. They expand the range of printing.
B. They make adjustment while printing.
C. They are more flexible than traditional ones.
D. They make objects smaller than themselves.
30. What is the function of the builders in the building process
A. Correcting any errors. B. Spraying construction material.
C. Carrying the scanning camera. D. Monitoring the building process.
31. What might the flying robots first be used to do mainly according to Dr Kovac
A. Manufacture products. B. Construct buildings.
C. Repair damage in risky places. D. Monitor air pollution in the sky.

Remember Lion King Many of us walked out of that animation movie being in awe of (钦佩) the storyline, the songs, the colours and the animation. However, how many of us would have given thought to the work done by the animators
32 Now, multiply the amount of work it takes to produce a 90-minute movie. Mind-blowing, is it pot The patience, skills and technical training required are a lot more demanding (高要求的) than a non-animated movie.
One of the greatest soft skills an animator can have will be the ability to work together in a team. 33 Just as it takes a village to bring up a child, it takes a number of people to create an animated film.
The team of animators usually use computer software and work with artists to create the magic and make the characters “come to life.” A successful production accurately captures (捕捉) the characters’ wide range of expressions, among other aspects. 34 It’s usually after a great amount of time spent studying acting and observational skills. The animators study body movements to create realistic and specific emotions and reactions in their characters.
Animation work usually differs from pre-production to production stages. Some animators are involved in developing and visualizing (可视化)the storyline. Some animators are involved in keeping the characters’ personalities and core (核心的) positions constant throughout the production. 35 At times, the movements of the actors and actresses are captured and then mapped on to the animation drawings.
Do animators go to a school to learn animation first Ideally, yes. It is highly recommended that animator-lovers get a college degree first. If you are interested in becoming an animator, do not stop there. Bravely approach production houses for internship (实习) opportunities. 36
A. Animation is never a solo effort.
B. These expressions are not created overnight.
C. The team will also need to be good communicators.
D. It takes weeks to create a ten-second animation production.
E Animators at the production stage bring the characters to life.
F. An animator with a suitable qualification and experiences is always in demand.
G. Animators are the most sensitive creators when it comes to life and human nature.

“Shmuel!

Shmuel looked up at Lieutenant Kotler, who frowned, leaning forward slightly as he examined the boy’s face. “You have been eating.” said Lieutenant Kotler. “Did you 45 something from that fridge ” Shmuel looked toward Bruno, his eyes pleading for 46 .
“Answer me!” shouted Lieutenant Kotler.
“No, sir. He gave it to me,” said Shmuel, tears welling up in his eyes. “He’s my friend,” he added.
“Do you know this boy, Bruno ” he asked in a loud voice.
Bruno’s mouth 47 and he tried to say the word “yes”, but then he realized that he couldn’t because he was feeling just as 48 himself.
“Tell me, Bruno!” shouted Kotler, his face growing red. “I won’t ask you a third time.”
“I’ve 49 seen him before in my life.” said Bruno immediately, “I don’t know him.”
Hearing that, Shmuel wasn’t crying any more, merely staring at the floor and looking as if he was trying to 50 his soul not to live inside his tiny body any more, but to 51 away and sail to the door and rise up into the sky, gliding through the clouds until it was far away.
