Most high school students would rather spend their summer vacations far away from the classroom. But Vineet Kosaraju and Nikhil Cheerla are choosing to go back to school, and this time they are the teachers.
"I think it' s really nice that I can help the community by spending just a little bit of time every week helping just a few students here and there try and learn programming," Kosaraju said.
Friends since they were young boys, Kosaraju and Cheerla always shared a love of computer science. They learned the skills from their parents and school, but recognized that not all children have that chance.
"Programming isn't taught in that many schools, especially low income (收入) schools, because there isn't that much money to support it," Kosaraju said.
So he and Checrla developed "Math and Coding," an after-school program for kids of all ages to learn the basics of computer programming.
Between applying for (申请) college and doing their own homework, the two boys now spend a few hours every week going to different libraries teaching classes that cover everything from building basic games to developing apps.
The friends started the program a little over a year ago and already, it's spread to more than a dozen libraries across the Bay Area in California. They are even training volunteers to teach these vent same-classes in other US states and Canada.
Maryann Mitchell brought her 8-year-old granddaughter, Gabriella, to a class on coding at the Alum Rock Library in San Jose, California.
"It’s a chance for her to learn," Mitchell said. "It’s the way of the future, and it’s a good way for her to get grounded and be ready for what the future holds.
"I think the most rewarding thing is having people come up and thank you and say they really learned a lot from this class," Cheerla said. "It doesn't get any better than that."
4. Why do the two boys return to the classroom during summer holidays
A. To improve their computer skills. B. To get some teaching experience.
C. To raise money for local schools. D. To instruct kids in programming.
5. What do we know about the program
A. It has a growing influence. B. It has been run for many years.
C. It helps students apply for college. D. It trains teachers to work for libraries. ,
6. How can the class benefit Gabriella
A. It helps her prepare for the future. B. It encourages her to visit libraries.
C. It allows her to make more friends. D. It's a chance to learn about the future.
7. What does the text mainly report
A The great work of volunteers in the Bay Area B. A library's important role in helping students.
C. Two teens' free coding course for children. D. The close friendship between two students.
C
The law of supply and demand (需求) explains how the prices of goods and services are determined. Prices rise when there is an increase in demand. When there is an increase in supply, prices go down.
When the amount of goods being demanded is the same as the amount of goods being supplied, it stabilizes prices. However, if either side increases too much, it can create economic (经济的) problems. Tulip Mania was a period in the Dutch Golden Age when the prices of tulips rose and dropped rapidly. In the 1630s, the demand for these flowers increased so much that prices went out of control.
After tulips were introduced to the Netherlands, they became a symbol of wealth and position. As a result, the rare types were seen as valuable things and were trade at high prices. Soon, they grew in popularity as a trading product, and traders bought them to make a lot of money. Even ordinary people started to believe it was an easy way to make money and got involved (参与) in the trade of the tulips.
Prices kept on rising as more people wanted tulips. Some people began selling all of their possessions (财产) in order to buy them. And the prices became unbelievably higher than the value of the actual things. As the supply increased, however, some people thought the demand for tulips would not last and began to sell their tulips. Finally, prices dropped, and many were left poor with worthless tulips.
8. What does the underlined word "stabilizes" in Paragraph 2 mean
A. Brings something down. B. Loses control of something.
C. Keeps something exactly the same. D. Makes something unlikely to change.
9. What caused the huge increase in tulips' prices in the 1630s
A. Their high value. B. Powerful demand.
C. Their extreme rareness. D. The government's economic policy.
10. According to the text, Tulip Mania __________________.
A. involved a wide range of people B. helped create the Dutch Golden Age
C. went against the law of supply and demand D. led to the slow economic growth in the Netherlands
11. Why did some people begin to sell their tulips during Tulip Mania
A. Their tulips were just common types. B. Their prices would remain unchanged.
C. They needed money to make a living. D. They were worried about the demand for tulips.
D
Pharrell Williams takes a breath and considers how the past years have developed for him: ten Grammy Awards and a number of hit singles including a song that has caused countless fans to express how they are "happy".
And the key, says the 43-year-old known simply as Pharrell, has been taking advantage of audiences' (听众的) need for heartfelt personal stories.
"I think we've entered a new singer-songwriter time," said the American singer and producer. "People want a story. They want a story they can connect to. It' s not about what you have or what you don't have; it's more about your journey and your viewpoint that' s important to people."
Pharrell said he noticed a change in audiences' tastes over the past year in particular with the sudden success of his song Happy, which received little fanfare upon its release but has turned into an international hit.

After seeing how tar his song traveled, the singer broke down in tears during a televised interview with the famous talk show host Oprah Winfrey.
"It' s just encouraging to people who have something to say, something to express," he said.
The success has made Pharrell realize that people are searching for personal and emotional links (情感纽带), perhaps as a means of getting away from the modern technological world we' re living in today.
"People want to feel. There' s too much thinking to deal with." the singer said. "We're different from what we were 15 years ago. The only thing we have left that remind (提醒) us that we are humans is feeling. It's the most important thing ever."
12. What's the key to successful music according to Pharrell
A. Writing happy songs. B. Following your heart.
C. Telling moving stories. D. Sharing personal experiences.
13. What can we learn about Pharrell's song Happy
A. It received a cold welcome. B. It became popular overnight.

C. It gave him hope and confidence. D. It prevented him giving up making music.
15. Why do people want to be connected. to others emotionally
A. They need someone to talk to. B. They need others to help them think.
C. They are tired of their own personal life. D. They feel less human in the technological world.

47. 阅读下面材料,，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使其构成一篇完整的短文。
Most boys coming to our ranch (大牧场) were living around animals for the first time. Sent by educational systems, they were boys in trouble; they had no family, lacked love, often broke the rules, and were lonely. Our ranch created a “boy-horse communication program” for them, hoping to heal their broken spirits and help them behave well through their communication with horses. I was the program’s head.
15-year-old Martin was a new arrival. He appeared cold and easily angry and had no experience with horses. He seemed to consider a horse only a vehicle for speed and thrills. He always pushed his way to the front of the line every day, knocking down smaller children to get on the horse. And then he started moving fast. We tried to communicate with him, but he only cared about his excitement.
One morning, when I was upset about Martin’s behavior in my office, one worker told me that a female horse was ill. Then, I ran to its stable (马), and within an hour she was dead. We felt sad about her and also concerned about the young baby she had recently delivered (分娩). The baby horse’s first need was to be fed.
We prepared some milk in a bottle and offered it to her. But she wouldn’t accept the bottle. We had to put our hands in the milk and let her suck (吮吸) the milk off our fingers. It was a painfully slow method of feeding, but we had no choice if we wanted the baby horse to survive.
At that moment, Martin finished his daily riding and found us. Pushing his way through the crowd of kids who were watching us feed the baby horse, he got to the front, shouting, “I want to feed it!”
After I showed Martin how to do it, he put his hand in the milk and then put his fingers towards the horse’s mouth. When the baby horse closed her mouth around his fingers, Martin was surprised and drew back, shouting, “Hey, it bit me!” But knowing the little horse wanted more food, he immediately re-wet his hand.

And he gently put his fingers near her mouth.

Dear Richard,
I’m Li Hua. Learning that our school is about to celebrate its 100th anniversary and that volunteers are wanted, I am writing with pleasure to apply for this position.
I think I’m qualified for the job. My advantages are as follows. First and foremost, I have a good command of oral English, allowing me to communicate with foreign guests with great ease. What’s more, I excel at communication, which makes me capable of interacting with a variety of people of all backgrounds. Last but not least, a strong sense of responsibility and a huge passion have given me a tremendous advantage over others.
Should you take my application into consideration and give me the opportunity, I would appreciate it very much.
Yours,
Li Hua
【答案】And he gently put his fingers near her mouth. Again the horse sucked greedily. This time, Martin’s face relaxed into a smile of pure pleasure. Again and again, he put his hand in the milk and gave it to the horse. “She’s so hungry,” he said softly. Eventually, the horse had enough milk and fell into a deep sleep. “What happened to her ” Martin asked me. I told him that she had lost her mom and needed someone to care for her. Then we talked about how it felt to lose a mother.
Watching the horse sleep, Martin cried, “I’ll be her mom and care for her.” Touched, I nodded. He came every day to feed the baby horse and clean her stable. He brushed her and played with her. They had a wild game where they took turns chasing each other, bringing fun and love to each other. Gradually, Martin’s eyes had more tenderness, and he began caring for little boys there, teaching them to ride horses. I was glad about Martin’s change. And this was just one story here that showed how our program could heal a broken spirit.
