It's natural to think about what goes into producing the food in your daily lunch bag.But have you ever stopped to consider the production techniques behind the bag itself At the center of it is a woman named Margaret Knight.
From her earliest years, Knight was a restless creator.In the article titled “The Evolution of the Grocery Bag”, its writer mentions a few of her childhood projects.She was “famous for her kites”, and “her sleds were the envy of the town's boys”.
To support her mother, she took a job at a cotton factory when she was 12.That same year she invented a shuttle system which helped to prevent injury.At the time, she had no concept of patenting her idea.What strengthened her place in history was her working experience at the Columbia Paper Bag Company.Here, instead of folding every paper bag by hand, Knight wondered if she might be able to make them cleanly and rapidly via an automated machine.The result was a working model of her elegant paper folding machine.But this time she wanted to go to the extra step and secure a patent on her creation, a brave move for a woman in the 19th century, when an extremely small percentage of patents were held by women.
Not only did Knight file for a patent, she bravely defended her ownership of the bag machine idea.A man named Charles Annan said the creation was his own, arguing no woman could be able to design such a machine.Knight fought a legal battle against him and handed Annan a courtroom (法庭) defeat by presenting her detailed hand drawn blueprints.Finally, Knight received her rightful patent in 1871.
After making the machine, she continued to invent many other things like a paper feeding machine and a skirt protector.Knight, at the age of seventy, worked twenty hours a day on 89th invention.
4.Why does the writer mention Knight's childhood projects
A.To introduce a book to readers.
B.To tell us young Knight liked sports.
C.To show Knight was envied by other girls.
D.To show Knight was creative as a child.
5.Which words can best describe Knight
A.Intelligent and generous.
B.Courageous and hard working.
C.Considerate and optimistic.
D.Independent and determined.
6.What do we know about the paper folding machine
A.It turned out to be slower but safer.
B.It was co invented by Knight and Annan.
C.It proved Knight's position as an inventor.
D.It was the first machine to be patented by a woman.
7.How is the text mainly developed
A.By following the order of time.
B.By making some comments.
C.By making a comparison.
D.By listing examples.
C
Tsunamis are one of the most terrifying natural phenomena that the world suffers.The series of waves produced by the displacement (位移) of a large volume of water can be caused by several events, including earthquakes, underwater explosions and landslides.Once triggered (引发), a tsunami can hit the coast within minutes and its destructive power can be enormous.
At present,early warning systems rely on measuring the movement of dart buoys (浮标),which record changes in the sea level, or assessing the bottom water pressure of the developing tsunami.But they require the tsunami to physically reach the measurement location.The buoys could be fixed in the deep ocean, but this requires an unrealistically big number of buoys.Or people can fix the buoys along the shoreline, but due to the high speed of the tsunami, this method may leave no warning time for people on the land.
Instead, there is a new system using sound waves to predict tsunamis.Sound waves caused by an earthquake can travel much faster than the tsunami that has been triggered.Using standard underwater microphones, we can record these sound waves long before the tsunami arrives regardless of the direction in which the tsunami will travel.The sound signals come from changes in pressure, so what we actually analyze is a series of data on how the pressure is changing overtime.Though buoys also show changes in pressure, the tsunami front must actually reach the buoys to inform us that there is an increase in the water surface.By using underwater microphones, however, we only need to catch the sound signals.
Though the idea of using sound waves to predict tsunamis has been put forward previously, the key to our idea is a new mathematical method that can be used to analyze these recorded sound signals in near real time.Once this is worked out, we can not only warn people of a tsunami but also more accurately estimate its size long before it reaches the shoreline.
8.From paragraph 1, we know________.
A.what can trigger off tsunamis
B.how to predict tsunamis effectively
C.why tsunamis are the worst natural disaster
D.how to protect the coastal areas from tsunamis
9.What does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 2 refer to
A.The dart buoys.
B.The changes in the sea level.
C.The changes in water pressure.
D.The present early warming systems.
10.What can we infer about the new warning system from paragraph 3
A.It has high accuracy.
B.It can increase warning time.
C.It can monitor changeable sea levels.
D.It can adapt to various water wave conditions.
11.What's the best title for the text
A.Ways to Guard Against Tsunamis
B.Methods of Analyzing Sound Signals
C.A New Real time Tsunami Warning System
D.Tsunami — The Most Terrifying Natural Disaster

Sometimes a book comes along that isn't just “interesting” or “well done” — it's a book where it seems like the author looked into your brain and wrote a book specifically for you.A book like that for me was released last week.It's called 100 Things We've Lost to the Internet, written by editor Pamela Paul.
Paul lists 100 things we used to do that the Internet has either changed or taken over completely: writing letters, printing newspapers, the joys of being bored, and not having all the knowledge in the world in your pocket.
As I often accumulate random knowledge, certain entries on the list — Being the Only One, Figuring Out Who That Actor Is — hit_me_where_I_live;_remembering detailed facts is no longer nearly as impressive when everyone has the capability to find the answer in seconds.
On and on the list goes, with every minor shift adding to the pile.What this book does so well is illustrate the growth of that pile; while any individual item might be no big deal, the collected set is significant.It's a list of ways in which the world now is different from the world then.
Obviously, Paul isn't saying that everything back then was better.Time marches on, after all, and it's tough to argue against the many benefits that the Internet has brought into our lives.But that isn't really the point.It's not about whether it used to be better.It's that it used to be different.
100 Things We've Lost to the Internet is a fun read for those of us who share some of Paul's memories and experience.We remember what it was like and we like to remember.The landscape has shifted, and no doubt it will shift again as technology's advancement continues apace (高速地).This book serves as a reminder of the simple truth that when gains are made, sometimes something is lost.
12.What is the purpose of the text
A.To review and recommend a good read.
B.To comment on the effect of the Internet.
C.To argue for the viewpoint of a new book.
D.To urge the readers to value what they have.
13.Which might be entries on Paul's list
A.Maps and Eye Contact.
B.E pay and Compact Disks.
C.Postcards and Homeschooling.
D.Photos and Washing Machines.
14.What does the underlined part “hit me where I live” in paragraph 3 mean
A.Prove what I'm good at.
B.Introduce how I grew up.
C.Describe the place I live in.
D.Speak out what is on my mind.
15.What conclusion has the author drawn after reading Paul's book
A.Things in the past are better.
B.There're no gains without pains.
C.The Internet is a double edged sword.
D.Technology is constantly changing the world.

Self management refers to self control, which is a sign of inner power.There is no one easy or simple way to learn it, as everyone's mind works differently from another.__16__. Here's a list of ways to develop self management skills.
Have goals
If something is important enough for you, it should be written down somewhere as your goal.Whether it is losing some weight or finishing a course with a certain grade, having a goal to reach is important for your motivation.You can certainly have more than one goal.__17__.
Set a schedule
Daily or weekly schedules give you more of a feeling that things are being accomplished (完成).Students who set schedules for themselves tend to be a bit more organized and aware of everything that is happening around them. __18__. For example, they usually like studying for a few hours now and then they can hang out with their friends later.
__19__
If you fail to hit your goals, adjust your goals to make up for your past mistakes.Take a step back and assess (评估) what you are doing and change it.It's okay not to reach goals, as long as you can acknowledge it honestly and make positive changes towards meeting your goals.__20__. But sometimes you just fall short.Knowing that it's okay and move on, you can pick yourself back up quickly.
The above self management skills are essential for your development, which can truly change your future.So take it seriously and find ways to improve yourself!
A.Be honest to yourself
B.Assess yourself honestly
C.But there are certain things that work for most
D.You can break it down to yearly, monthly, weekly, and even daily ones
E.As long as you have a clear schedule, it's possible for you to achieve them all
F.They're able to think in advance about what they need to accomplish now or later
G.This step is especially hard because you want to feel good about yourself and achieve your goals
