In the fall of 1985, I was holding a dream to Howard University, so that one day I could sit on a Supreme Court bench somewhere and make some just sentence.
Twenty-one years later, I am still a dreamer and be with quite a different experience to go through.
My grandma developed cancer, so I made the choice to leave the college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.
Then I got married with another dream. In 1999, we adopted (收养）our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic. A year later came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No. 3.In 2003, I gave birth to another boy.
You can imagine how busy I became, raising four boys under the age of 8 .Our home was a complete zoo---a joyous zoo. As a result, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant taking as few as one class each term.
The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, but I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.
In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college degree and finally become a judge!
I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when you're looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when you're in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won't arrive in your life on one day. It's a process. Remember: little steps add up to big dreams.
24. When the author went to Howard University, what was her dream
A. To be a writer. B. To be a teacher.

B. The author just felt guilty for her sons.
C. The author wanted to remain a full-time housewife.
D. The author was too confused to make a correct choice.

C. Every coin has two sides.
D. Well begun, half done.

Tell your car to make a phone call without holding the phone. Tell your car to send an e -mail without touching the computer or even tell your car to send a call for help. Sound like some-thing from a science fiction movie. Well, thanks to a new “ talking car”, this is soon to become reality.
Road Track, the Israeli producer of Chevrolet, has built a computer platform called Chevy Star. It offers the driver a wide range of things you can get with your voice.
It uses a box the size of a mobile phone attached to the rear-view mirror. The driver can use it to be in touch with Road Track’s Offices. Many operators work round the clock so as to answer the phone and the needs of drivers.
To get into the car, the driver has to say a secret code, such as “Open Sesame”, for the doors to open and the engine to start. Upon entering the car, the driver has three buttons: one for emergencies, another for telephone calls and a third for practical information.
When the driver presses the emergency button, the operator calls the car to ask if there is a problem. If the driver is lost, the operator can use a map to help the driver find his or her way.
“It depends 100 percent on the voice, so you don’t need to take your eyes of the road or hands off the wheel to use it. You just speak to the operator and then it will give you instructions, ”said Danny Laguna of Chevrolet.
The operator also alerted when the driver hits your brake too hard. And if operators find a problem anywhere on the car, they warn the driver straight away. Need to make a phone call Just press the button and read out the number to dial. E-mail can also be dictated. The driver also has many practical things to choose from; the weather, the latest world or local news, what’s on a the cinema or theatre.
28. What is mainly described in the passage
A. What cars will be like in the future. B. What producers will do in the future.
C. How to make discoveries. D. How to drive cars.
29. In which case should the driver press the button for emergencies
A. You want to find a detailed map. B. You want to know the local news.
C. You get lost on your way. D. You want to send an e-mail.
30. How does the “talking car” work
A. Drivers have to stop the cars.
B. Drivers have to connect with the operators.
C. Drivers have to carry a mobile phone.
D. Drivers must have a computer.
31. What’s the best title for the passage
A. Cars with a computer B. Telephones in the future
C. Computers in the car D. Cars in the future

From video games and museums to medical training, virtual reality (VR) has been changing our lives for the better. However, this amazing new technology has a so-far unsolvable shortcoming: motion sickness. “With modern VR systems, the possibility of motion sickness after only 15 minutes is anywhere from 40 to 70 percent.” Thomas Stoffregen, a researcher told ABC News. Indeed, some VR applications have a user-sickness rate of nearly 100 percent!
When caused by VR, this sickness is called cybersickness. It’s probably caused by sensory conflict, explains Stoffregen. When you are wearing a VR device, your body’s motion sensors cannot match the information received by your eyes. For example, when we wear a VR headset and ride a virtual roller-coaster, we think we are going up and down, but our bodies stay still. It leads to confusion of balance and spatial orientation. Sickness is our bodies’ natural response to this confusion. Adding to this problem, Stoffregen says, “Women are more likely to feel sick from the VR experience than men.”
According to a study by Bas Rokers, a scientist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, US, one reason could be the headsets. To work properly, VR headsets must match up with your pupil distance. Since they are designed larger than the average PD, not everyone gets the best experience.
Rokers found that when the headset PD is too large, users experience greater discomfort. Based on his studies, about 90 percent of women have a shorter PD than the headset is designed for. In comparison, only 5 percent of men had this problem. ABC News says that cybersickness presents a “serious barrier” to widespread use of VR technologies. However, people believe it will become comfortable and easy to use and that it can play a great role in our lives.
32. What do we know about cybersickness
A. It’s a sickness caused by VR applications.
B. It has a higher incidence among young people.
C. It is caused by one’s poor sense of direction.
D. It immediately happens when VR device is used.
33. Why are women more likely to have a bad VR experience
A. They have a poor sense of balance.
B. VR headsets are too large for their PDs.
C. It’s difficult for them to set the VR headset.
D. They can feel discomfort more easily.
34. What do people think of the future of VR technologies
A. Doubtful. B. Uncertain.
C. Hopeful. D. Worrying.
35. What’s the best title for the passage
A. The Reality of Cybersickness B. New Treatments for Cybersickness
C. Getting to Know Virtual Reality D. Saying No to Virtual Reality
