Mother
Nature
is
a
cruel
mistress.
Why?
Read
on
to
find
the
answer.
Venice
This
iconic
city
is
sinking
rapidly.
The
canals
that
make
up
the
streets
of
Venice
rise
2mm
every
year,
making
relics
of
history
go
under
the
surface
of
water
and
destroying
architecture.
Experts
warn
that
without
intervention(干预),
this
city
will
disappear
back
into
the
water
at
an
even
faster
rate,
consumed
by
rising
sea
level
from
melting
polar
ice
caps.
Machu
Picchu
These
iconic
ruins
have
drawn
adventurous
tourists
into
the
mountains
of
South
America.The
forces
of
natural
erosion(侵蚀)have
been
accelerated
by
tourism
and
this
landmark
faces
severe
influence
from
increasing
foot
traffic.
The
Peruvian
government
recently
suggested
a
cable
car
that
would
cut
out
the
intense
hike
up
to
the
ruins,
making
the
site
instantly
accessible
to
millions
but
the
future
of
Machu
Picchu
remains
uncertain.
Glacier
National
park
Perhaps
you've
heard
that
the
ice
caps
are
melting.
But
nowhere
is
more
apparent
in
the
United
States
than
in
Glacier
National
Park.Estimates
indicate
that
the
glaciers
that
are
part
of
the
beauty
of
this
national
landmark
will
disappear
entirely
in
the
next
two
decades.
The
Great
Barrier
Reef
Hidden
from
view
beneath
the
waves,
the
Great
Barrier
Reef
has
been
rapidly
dying
off.
Nearly
fifty
percent
of
coral
which
once
occupied
a
large
area
is
gone,destroyed
by
pollution
and
disease.
1．What
can
we
learn
about
Machu
Picchu?

famous
for
cable
cars.
B．It
has
no
convenient
traffic.
C．It's
well
preserved
by
the
locals.
D．It
bears
a
heavy
burden
of
tourism.

place
probably
needs
visitors
to
dive
into
the
water
to
enjoy
its
beauty?
A．Venice.

Picchu.

all
well-known
for

We
all
agree,
surely—memorizing
poetry
is
a
good
thing,
and
children
ought
to
do
it.
But
people
do
object.
At
least,
they
object
to
the
idea
that
children
should
be
forced
to
learn
poetry.
They
tend
to
be
people
like
Michael
Rosen.
Rosen
has
more
practical
objections
to
children
having
to
learn
poetry
by
the
government’s
order.
Actually,
Rosen
is
all
for
learning
poetry,
“when
it
feels
right”,
which
is,
he
says,
“one
of
those
vague
phrases
much
hated
by
people
in
authority
and
yet
it
is
at
the
heart
of
good
teaching”.
He’s
onto
something
about
the
timing,
but
that
doesn’t
mean
policymakers
are
wrong
to
insist
on
pupils
learning
poetry.
The
problem
is
that
some
influential
educationists
have
come
to
see
learning
by
heart
as
a
waste
of
time
when
tomorrow’s
adults
will
want
skills
more
than
information.
Let’s
come
to
the
most
important
objectors—children.
Their
objection
tends
to
come
in
the
least
offensive
form.
It
comes
in
the
question:
“Why
are
we
doing
this?”
It’s
a
worthwhile
inquiry.
I
teach
at
Sherborne
School,
where
boys
do
learn
poetry,
and
luckily
there’s
time
in
our
lessons
to
answer
that
question.
Here’s
one
of
the
answers
I
give.
There’ll
be
one
time
when
your
good
friend
is
going
to
introduce
you
to
someone
with
whom
he
wants
to
spend
the
rest
of
his
life.
There’ll
be
a
ceremony
to
honour
this
union,
and
words
will
be
very
important.
You’re
likely
to
be
the
one
who
has
to
stand
up
and
say,
“Let
me
not
to
the
marriage
of
true
minds/Admit
impediments...”
And
when
you
do
that,
you’re
going
to
be
speaking
for
everyone
in
the
room.
Now,
everybody
breathes
a
sigh
of
relief.
Learning
poetry
and
reciting
poetry
forces
us
to
think
of
it
in
this
public
way.
However
mysterious
and
intimate
poetry
seems,
we
need
to
remember
it’s
something
we
also
share,
and
offer
each
other.
So
take
some,
and
pass
it
on.
4.What
does
the
underlined
word
“it”
in
the
first
paragraph
refer
to?
A.The
right
timing.
B.The
poetry
with
vague
phrases.
C.The
government’s
order.
D.The
natural
way
to
learn
poetry.
5.Which
of
the
following
would
be
favored
by
some
influential
educationists?
A.To
guide
children
how
to
recite
poetry.
B.To
instruct
children
how
to
get
information.
C.To
teach
students
real
life
skills
for
the
future.
D.To
force
children
to
obey
the
government
policy.
6.As
for
the
children’s
question,
the
teacher
should
.?
A.consider
it
offensive
B.take
it
seriously
C.dismiss
it
as
worthless
D.discuss
it
after
class
7.What’s
the
writer’s
attitude
towards
poetry
learning?
A.Objective.
B.Supportive.
C.Critical.
D.Disapproving.

Once
a
circle
missed
a
wedge
(楔子).
The
circle
wanted
to
be
whole,
so
it
went
around
looking
for
its
missing
piece.
But
because
it
was
incomplete
and
therefore
could
roll
only
very
slowly,
it
admired
the
flowers
along
the
way.
It
chatted
with
worms.
It
enjoyed
the
sunshine.
Finally
it
found
a
piece
that
fit
perfectly.
It
was
so
happy.
Now
that
it
was
a
perfect
circle,
it
could
roll
very
fast,
too
fast
to
notice
flowers
or
talk
to
the
worms.
When
it
realized
how
different
the
world
seemed
when
it
rolled
so
quickly,
it
stopped,
left
its
found
piece
by
the
side
of
the
road
and
rolled
slowly
away.
In
some
strange
sense
we
are
more
whole
when
we
are
missing
something.
The
man
who
has
everything
is
in
some
ways
a
poor
man.
He
will
never
know
what
it
feels
like
to
yearn,
to
hope,
to
nourish(滋润)
his
soul
with
the
dream
of
something
better.
He
will
never
know
the
experience
of
having
someone
who
loves
him
give
him
something
he
has
always
wanted
or
never
had.
There
is
wholeness
about
the
person
who
has
come
to
terms
with
his
limitations,
who
has
been
brave
enough
to
let
go
of
his
unrealistic
dreams
and
does
not
feel
like
a
failure
for
doing
so.
There
is
wholeness
about
the
man
or
woman
who
has
learned
that
he
or
she
is
strong
enough
to
go
through
a
tragedy(悲剧)
and
survive
—
he
or
she
can
lose
someone
and
still
feel
like
a
complete
person.
Life
is
more
like
a
baseball
season,
when
even
the
best
team
loses
one
third
of
its
games
and
even
the
worst
team
has
its
days
of
brilliance.
Our
goal
is
to
win
more
games
than
we
lose.
When
we
accept
that
imperfection
is
part
of
being
human,
and
when
we
can
continue
rolling
through
life
and
appreciate
it,
we
will
have
achieved
wholeness
that
others
can
only
long
for.
8．Which
may
be
an
example
of
being
whole?
A．A
person
has
everything.
B．A
person
accepts
his
or
her
limitations.
C．A
person
loves
someone
and
is
loved.
D．A
person
feels
blue
for
dropping
unrealistic
goals.
9．How
is
a
baseball
season
similar
to
life?
A．Easy
come,
easy
go.
B．Failure
is
the
mother
of
success.
C．Energy
and
persistence
conquer
all
things.
D．Some
battles
you
win
and
some
battles
you
lose.
10．How
does
the
author
clarify
his
idea?
A．Mainly
by
comparing.
B．Mainly
by
reasoning.
C．Mainly
by
informing.
D．Mainly
by
arguing.
11．What
can
be
the
best
title
for
the
passage?
A．Pursue
perfection
in
life
B．Be
whole
in
life
C．Life
without
mistakes
is
whole
D．No
pains,
no

There
is
more
of
a
connection
between
food
and
culture
than
you
may
think.
On
an
individual
level,
we
grow
up
eating
the
food
of
our
culture.
It
becomes
a
part
of
who
we
are.
Many
associate
food
from
our
childhood
with
warm
feelings
and
good
memories
and
it
ties
us
to
our
family,
holding
a
special
and
personal
value
for
us.
Food
from
our
family
often
becomes
the
comfort
food
we
seek
as
adults
in
times
of
frustration
and
stress.
On
a
large
scale,
traditional
food
is
an
important
part
of
culture.
It
also
operates
as
an
expression
of
culture
identity.
Immigrants
bring
it
wherever
they
go,
and
it
is
a
symbol
of
pride
for
their
culture
and
means
of
coping
with
homesickness.
Many
immigrants
open
their
own
restaurants
and
serve
traditional
dishes.
However,
the
food
does
not
remain
exactly
the
same.
Some
materials
needed
to
make
traditional
dishes
may
not
be
readily
available,
so
the
taste
and
flavor
can
be
different
from
what
they
would
prepare
in
their
home
countries.
Additionally,
immigrants
do
not
only
sell
dishes
to
people
from
the
same
countries
as
them,
but
to
people
from
different
countries.
Therefore,
they
have
to
make
small
changes
about
the
original
dishes
to
cater
to
a
wider
range
of
customers.
Those
changes
can
create
new
flavors
that
still
keep
the
cultural
significance
of
the
dishes.
Not
only
should
we
embrace
our
heritage(传统)
through
our
culture’s
food
but
also
become
more
informed
about
other
cultures
by
trying
their
food.
It
is
important
to
remember
that
each
dish
has
a
special
place
in
the
culture
to
which
it
belongs,
and
is
special
to
those
who
prepare
it.
Food
is
a
window
into
culture,
and
it
should
be
treated
as
such.
12.What’s
the
function
of
food
mentioned
in
the
article?
A.To
help
motivate
homesickness.
B.To
show
national
identity.
C.To
reflect
a
country’s
history.
D.To
show
a
community’s
superiority.
13.What
does
the
underlined
word
“it”
in
Paragraph
2
refer
to?
A.The
specific
traditional
food.
B.The
national
culture.
C.A
traditional
expression
of
food.
D.The
old-fashioned
taste.
14.Why
do
some
immigrants
have
to
change
the
original
dishes
in
their
restaurants?
A.To
attach
cultural
importance
to
their
dishes.
B.To
announce
the
beginning
of
their
life
on
foreign
soil.
C.To
make
the
dishes
popular
among
customers.
D.To
present
their
own
food
culture
in
a
new
way.
15.What’s
the
author’s
attitude
towards
different
food
cultures?
A.Negative.
B.Balanced.
C.Unfair.
D.Unchangeable.

You
are
enjoying
a
nice
dream
until
your
alarm
suddenly
rings.
16
Is
your
clock
out
of
control?
No,
it’s
just
winter,
making
the
sun
rise
later,
so
it
will
be
twice
as
hard
to
crawl
out
of
bed
into
the
cold
darkness.
As
the
days
get
shorter,
our
mornings
lose
that
crucial
light
to
wake
us
up,
so
waking
up
gets
harder.
That
means
you’ll
need
to
put
in
extra
effort
to
get
to
work
on
time.
17
18
Summer
or
winter,
you
should
aim
to
go
to
bed
at
about
the
same
time
every
evening
and
wake
up
at
about
the
same
time
every
morning.
Try
to
give
yourself
time
for
eight
hours
per
night.
Avoid
strong
light
near
bedtime.
So
if
you
like
reading
before
you
close
your
eyes,
try
an
actual
book
or
an
E?ink
screen
like
a
Kindle,
which
doesn’t
emit
the
harsh
light
that
phones
and
tablets
do.
Buy
a
wake?up
light.
If
you
still
have
trouble
with
dark
mornings,
it
might
be
time
to
introduce
more
light
into
your
room.
19
Give
yourself
something
to
look
forward
to.
20
Sure,
you
might
have
to
get
up
for
work,
but
you’ll
want
to
be
awake
if
you
are
expecting
a
delicious
breakfast,
or
a
workout
that
is
actually
fun.
A.But
you
just
don’t
want
to
get
out
of
your
warm
bed.
B.Stick
to
a
regular
schedule.
C.Philips
makes
some
popular
lamps
that
produce
natural
light
during
gray
winter
days.
D.Waking
up
is
easier
when
you
have
a
good
reason
to
be
conscious.
E.Too
much
light
can
do
harm
to
your
eyes.
F.We
have
a
few
tips
that
might
help.
G.But
when
you
look
out
of
the
window,
it’s
still
black
outside.

读后续写??阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Jenny?was
a
pretty
eight－year－old
girl.
One
day
when
she
and
her
mother
were
checking
out?at
the
grocery
store,?Jenny
saw
a
plastic?pearl
necklace,?by
which
she
was
totally
defeated.
How
eagerly
she
wanted
it!
But
when
she
saw
the
price,
her
heart
sank
a
little.
She
gathered
up
her
courage
and
asked
her
mother
if
she
would
buy
it
for
her,
her
mother
said,
“Well,
it
is
a
pretty
necklace,
but
it
costs
an
awful
lot
of
money.
I
can
buy
you
the
necklace,
but
when
we
get
home
we
should
make
up
a
list
of
housework
that
you
can
do
to
pay
for
the
necklace.”
Jenny
agreed
immediately,
feeling
a
burst
of
joy.
So
her
mother
bought
the
pearl
necklace
for
her.
Jenny
worked
on
her
housework
determinedly
and
earnestly
every
day.
Soon
Jenny
had
paid
off
the
pearls.
Jenny
had
a
very
loving?daddy.
When
Jenny
went
to?bed,?he
would
read
Jenny
her
favorite
story.
One
night
when
he
finished
the
story,
he
said,
“Jenny,
do
you?love?me？”
“Oh
yes,
Daddy,
you
know
I
love
you，”
the
little
girl
said?delightedly,?with
abroad
smile
on
her
face.
“Well,
then,?give?me
your
pearls.”
Hearing
that,
Jenny
froze
there,
an
anxious
expression
twisting
her
face.
“Oh!
Daddy,
not
my
pearls!
But
you
can
have
Rosy,
my?favorite?doll.
Remember
her?
You
gave
her
to
me
last
year
for
my
birthday.
Okay？”
“Oh
no,
darling,
that's
okay.”
Her
father
brushed
her
cheek
with
a?kiss,?gently
and
calmly.
“Good
night,
little
one.”
A
week
later,
her
father
once
again
asked
Jenny
after
her
story,
“Do
you
love
me？”
“Oh
yes,
Daddy,
you
know
I
love
you，”
the
little
girl
murmured
softly,
trying
to
escape
from
her
father's
eyes.
“Well,
then,
give
me
your
pearls.”
“Oh,
Daddy,
not
my
pearls!
But
you
can
have
Ribbons,
my
toy
horse.
Do
you
remember
her?
She's
my
favorite.”
The
little
girl
begged.
“No,
that's
okay，”
her
father
said,
smiling
broadly
and
sweetly
and
brushed
her
cheek
again
with
a
kiss.
“God
bless
you,
little
one.
Sweet
dreams.”

Several
days
later,
when
Jenny's
father
came
in
to
read
her
a
story,
Jenny?was
waiting
anxiously
for
him
on
the?bed.
When
listening
to
the
story,
Jenny
was
totally
absent－minded,
with
her
hands

necklace?tightly
and
firmly.
When
the
story
came
to
an

unexpectedly,
Jenny
offered
her
beloved
necklace
to
her
father,
with
her
fingers
trembling
automatically.
No
one
knew
what
the
necklace
meant
to
her.
She
whispered
to
her
father,
softly
and
gently,
“Daddy,?you
know
I?love?you
more
than
the
necklace.”
Then,
the
necklace
slid
into
her
father's
hands
determinedly.

host
cities
are
generally
considered
to
be
equipped
with
advanced
technology
and
expensive
facilities.
Now,
people
can
just
go
there
for
a
little
Olympic-level
entertainment.
Athens,
Greece
(1896
and
2004)
Home
to
the
first
modern
Olympic
games
in
1896,
Athens'
history
of
the
Olympic
tradition
dates
back
several
thousand
years.
Every
four
years,
the
Olympic
torch
is
lit
at
the
Panathenaic
Stadium
in
Athens
before
beginning
its
long
journey
to
the
new
host
city.
Visitors
can
walk
through
the
Olympic
Velodrome
in
the
Olympic
Sports
Complex
and
step
back
in
time
at
the
50,000-seat
stadium.
Barcelona,
Spain(1992)
These
days
Barcelona
is
among
the
world's
most
visitable
cities
even
without
Olympic
fame,
but
that
isn't
always
the
case.
The
telecommunications
tower
built
for
the
games
by
Spanish
architect
Calatrava
is
also
an
iconic(图像的）
device
of
the
city's
skyline,
and
its
Olympics
stadium-
Montjuic
Stadium
is
regularly
used
to
host
A-list
musical
performances
like
The
Rolling
Stones,
Madonna,
and
Beyonce.
St
Moritz,
Switzerland(1924
and
1948)
Appropriately,
the
town
that
invented
Alpine
tourism
has
hosted
the
Winter
Olympics
twice,
and
continues
to
make
use
of
its
many
sports
facilities-if
you
can
afford
to
get
there.
Stay
at
the
Kulm
Hotel
for
the
easiest
access
to
the
Kulm
Country
Club,
where
guests
can
skate
on
the
same
lake
used
by
mid-century
Olympians,
or
test
your
courage
on
the
Olympia
Bob
Run,
one
of
the
few
places
where
you
can
ride
a
full-speed
Olympic
bobsled(双人雪橇）
on
a
run
constructed
entirely
of
ice.
Sydney,
Australia
(2000)
The
turn-of-the-century
Sydney
Summer
Olympics
were
named
the
"Green
Games"
by
the
International
Olympic
Committee
(10C)
and
were
designed
to
introduce
a
more
environmentally
conscious
way
of
hosting
the
event.
The
structure
that
best
shows
Sydney's
efforts
to
be
an
example
of
continuing
Olympic
development
is
the
ANZ
Stadium.

Do
you
believe
in
the
power
of
music?
If
you’re
like
most
kids
these
days,
you
probably
have
an
electronic
device
loaded
with
hundreds
or
even
thousands
of
your
favorite
songs.
At
any
moment
in
time,
you
can
fill
your
headphones
with
the
sounds
of
a
particular
song
that
suits
your
mood
at
that
exact
time.
Are
you
getting
ready
for
a
big
soccer
match
or
do
you
need
to
get
excited?
Maybe
some
hip
hop
with
a
strong
beat
will
do
the
trick!
Besides,
you
might
be
ready
to
study
for
a
big
exam
the
next
day.
To
calm
your
nerves
and
help
you
concentrate,
a
little
bit
of
Mozart
might
make
memorization
more
manageable.
But
is
there
any
scientific
evidence
of
these
effects
that
music
seems
to
have?
You
bet
there
is!
Scientists
have
long
recognized
the
power
of
music.
Over
the
years,
many
studies
have
been
conducted
to
examine
in
greater
depth
the
nature
and
extent
of
the
effects
music
has
on
people.
For
example,
scientists
at
the
University
of
Missouri
have
found
that
listening
to
music
can
have
a
positive
effect
on
your
mood.
Their
research
gives
scientific
credibility(可信性)
to
the
behavior
that
many
people
have
already
experienced
on
their
own:
listening
to
upbeat
music
can
brighten
your
day
and
boost
your
mood.
Other
studies
have
shown
that
upbeat
music
isn’t
the
only
type
of
music
that
can
be
helpful,
however.
When
people
are
sad
or
have
suffered
a
personal
loss,
sad
music
can
be
helpful
because
people
identify
with
the
tone
and
lyrics(歌词)
of
the
music.
Likewise,
people
under
a
lot
of
stress
or
experiencing
upsetting
situations
can
benefit
from
listening
to
angry
music.
Although
angry
music
might
not
help
you
if
you’re
in
a
normal
mood,
its
tone
can
benefit
you
when
you
are
dealing
with
stressful
and
upsetting
situations.

importance
of
having
an
electronic
device.

It
is
becoming
more
and
more
important
for
researchers
to
closely
observe
our
sea
life,
with
climate
change
and
overfishing
damaging
our
oceans.
However,
this
is
almost
impossible
since
human
presence
scares
the
animals.
Now,
thanks
to
The
Soft
Robotic
Fish,
also
called
SoFi,
researchers
may
not
only
be
able
to
keep
a
close
eye
on
the
creatures,
but
also
uncover
undersea
secrets
that
have
been
confusing
us
for
centuries.
Built
by
MIT's
Computer
Science
and
Artificial
Intelligence
Laboratory
(CSAIL),
the
snow-white
remote-controlled
robot
closely
emulates
real
fish,
complete
with
a
flexible
tail
and
two
"fins".
Though
not
the
first
autonomous
underwater
vehicle
(AUV)
created
to
observe
the
oceans,
SoFi
solves
many
of
the
issues
that
have
hindered
(妨碍)the
usefulness
of
previous
robots.
AUVs
traditionally
have
had
to
be
tied
to
a
boat
because
radio
frequency
communications
do
not
work
well
underwater.
To
solve
the
problem,
CSAIL
director
Daniela
Rus
and
her
team
used
sound
waves
which
can
travel
greater
distances,
allowing
drivers
using
a
waterproofed
Super
Nintendo
controller
to
pilot
SoFi
from
up
to
50
feet
away.
To
ensure
SoFi
can
freely
move
around
the
ocean,
a
pump
moves
water
from
one
balloon-like
structure
to
the
other
through
its
soft
rubber
tail,
while
a
controller
fitted
with
a
battery
powers
the
robot
through
the
ocean,
unhindered
by
propellers
(螺旋桨).
During
test
dives
in
Fiji's
Rainbow
Reef,
SoFi
moved
alongside
the
sea
life
at
depths
of
50
feet
for
up
to
40
minutes
at
a
time,
taking
high-resolution
photos
and
videos.
Even
more
importantly,
it
was
able
to
do
so
without
causing
any
disturbance.
The
researchers
say
sometimes
the
fish
would
swim
alongside
the
strange-looking
robo-
fish
out
of
curiosity,
while
at
other
times
they
appeared
completely
unaware
of
its
existence.
While
SoFi
currently
only
records
videos,
future
versions
will
include
sensors.
"For
us,
this
fish
is
magical,"
says
Rus.
“We
imagine
someday
it
might
help
us
uncover
more
mysteries
from
the
amazing
underwater
world
that
we
know
so
little
about."
8.
Why
was
SoFi
created?
A.
To
protect
fish
from
being
caught.
B.
To
stop
oceans
from
being
polluted.
C.
To
learn
about
the
underwater
world
D.
To
solve
the
issues
AUVs
have
found.
9.
Which
of
the
following
can
replace
the
underlined
word
“emulates”
in
Paragraph2?
A.
Feeds.
B.
Catches.
C.
Protects.
D.
Imitates.
10.
What
is
the
third
paragraph
mainly
about?
A.
The
development
of
AUVs.
B.
Working
principles
of
SoFi.
C.
How
AUVs
are
used
underwater.
D.
SoFi's
contribution
to
fish
protection.
11.
What
is
the
main
advantage
of
SoFi?
A.
It
will
not
scare
real
fish.
B.
It
can
record
videos.
C.
It
is
equipped
with
sensors.
D.
It
cannot
be
seen
by
real
fish.

A
chance
meeting
between
two
men
who
realized
they
had
both
been
abused
in
the
same
Surrey
children's
care
home
has
led
to
a
campaign
that
has
seen
hundreds
of
former
residents
claiming
they
were
also
victims
of
physical,
emotional
and
sexual
abuse.
Music
producer
Raymond
Stevenson,
physically
abused
during
his
time
at
the
Shirley
Oaks
home
in
the
70s,
met
a
childhood
friend
last
year
who
revealed
he'd
been
abused
in
the
institution.
Within
a
few
months,
the
Shirley
Oaks
Survivors
Association
（SOSA）
was
hundreds
strong.
“We
have
been
in
contact
with
over
300
people
and
the
stories
we
are
getting
are
just
terrible,"
Stevenson
says.
“Every
time
we
interview
someone
and
hear
about
what
happened
to
them,
it
brings
tears
to
our
eyes.
Reliving
（再现）some
of
the
horrors
they
went
through
hasn't
been
easy."
There
have
been
two
major
police
investigations
into
abuse
at
children's
homes
in
South
London
and
three
people
including
a
swimming
instructor,
William
Hook,
have
been
condemned
for
offences
relating
to
Shirley
Oaks.
Another
operation
is
currently
on-going,
but
SOSA
has
lost
faith
in
the
authorities
who
they
claim
have
covered
up
the
whole
picture
of
abuse
in
Shirley
Oaks.
“We
don't
trust
them
and
that's
why
we
have
decided
to
do
this
campaign
ourselves,”
Stevenson
explains.
A
couple
of
weeks
ago,
dozens
of
former
Shirley
Oaks
residents
crowded
into
a
Lambeth
council(议会）meeting-the
authority
which
ran
the
show
until
its
closure
the
mid-1980s.
Councilor
after
councilor
spoke
of
their
shame
at
what
had
been
allowed
to
happen
to
children
in
their
care.
Among
the
crowd
was
the
award-winning
author
Alex
Wheatle
who
has
written
about
the
abuse
he
suffered
as
a
child
at
Shirley
Oaks.
“We
have
not
come
here
to
go
to
war
with
the
council；we
have
come
here
to
gain
your
support,
”
Wheatle
told
the
meeting.
The
Shirley
Oaks
association
is
doing
more
than
compiling
evidence.
It
is
using
music
to
press
its
case.
A
song
entitled
“Don’t
Touch
It—It’s
Mine”
includes
personal
testimony(证词)
from
victims.
“I
was
abused
mentally,
physically,
emotionally
and
violently，”
the
track
begins.
“Of
the
original
16
of
us,12
have
killed
themselves...”
“We’re
not
going
to
be
told
lies
anymore，”
Stevenson
explains.
“We
are
not
going
to
leave
it
in
the
hands
of
lawyers,
politicians
or
council
officials
to
tell
us
what
happened
to
us.
We
want
to
discover
it
ourselves
and
we
know
music
and
dance
and
poetry
are
ways
that
can
tell
a
greater
story.”
12.
What
is
the
purpose
of
setting
up
SOSA?
A.
To
show
sympathy
for
the
abused
children
in
society.
B.
To
reveal
the
abuse
at
a
children's
care
home.
C.
To
find
the
living
victims
from
a
care
home.
D.
To
aid
those
people
abused
at
a
young
age.
13.
What
can
we
learn
from
the
passage?
A.
The
former
victims
depend
much
on
the
police
for
investigation.
B.
Twelve
of
the
sixteen
children
were
killed
in
Shirley
Oaks.
C.
All
the
people
committing
offences
in
Shirley
Oaks
have
been
arrested.
D.
The
former
local
authorities
must
have
neglected
their
duty.
14.
What
has
been
done
by
campaigners
of
SOSA?
A.
Collecting
evidence
for
the
police.
B.
Creating
music
for
the
campaign.
C.
Going
to
war
with
the
government.
D.
Turning
to
lawyers
for
assistance.
15.
Which
of
the
following
is
the
best
title
for
the
text?
A.
SOSA
sings

Our
world
is
more
connected
than
ever
before
thanks
to
technology.
___16___.
Indeed,
it
is
becoming
increasingly
important
that
we
all
learn
how
to
deal
with
this
painful
feeling.
You
should
be
determined
to
actively
end
your
loneliness.
We
often
end
up
passively
waiting
for
someone
else
to
make
us
feel
less
lonely.
You
may
feel
that
your
loneliness
indicates
that
nobody
is
willing
to
connect
with
you.
And
there
is
nothing
you
can
do
about
it.
But
that
is
far
from
the
truth.____17____.
You
should
find
reasons
why
you
are
lonely.
We
all
feel
lonely
for
different
reasons.
Some
of
us
have
no
one
else
to
interact(互动)
with
on
a
consistent
basis
and
that's
why
we
feel
lonely.
You
may
feel
that
the
people
in
your
life
don't
share
your
thoughts
and
ideas.___18___,
you
need
to
identify
it.
And
you
know
exactly
how
to
handle
your
loneliness.
___19___.
People
who
are
lonely
tend
to
fall
into
destructive
mental
habits.
They
try
to
avoid
the
pain
of
not
being
understood
and
being
disconnected
by
not
giving
people
any
chance
to
understand
and
connect
with
them.That's
not
what
you
should
choose
to
do.
Instead,
you
should
share
your
thoughts
and
feelings
with
others
and
do
so
openly
and
fearlessly.
You
should
find
people
who
share
your
interests.
____20____,
everybody
is
interested
in
something.And
just
as
there
are
many
interests,
there
are
many
people
who
share
those
interests.
Find
what
interests
you
and
connect
with
others
on
that
basis.
A.
Whatever
the
reason
is
B.
Whether
it's
coin
collecting
or
video
games
C.
If
you
have
no
reason
to
share
your
interests
D.
You
should
be
true
to
yourself
or
actively
end
loneliness
E.
You
should
be
open
about
your
thoughts,
ideas
and
desires
F.
Ending
loneliness
is
something
that
you
can
and
should
do
actively
G.
However,
more
and
more
of
us
find
ourselves
having
to
stand
loneliness

读后续写??阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
?
?
I
looked
out
at
the
smiling
faces
packed
into
the
school
hall.
Flashes
from
cameras
lit
up
in
all
directions.
The
applause?(掌声)?filled
my
ears.
I
had
done
it.
I
had
really
done
it.
?
?
Just
a
few
months
earlier,
I
would
never
have
pictured
myself
acting
in
a
play
in
front
of
two
hundred
people.?"Not
for
a
million
dollars,"
I
would
have
said.
But
when
the
time
came,
I
got
up
on
stage
and
faced
one
of
my
greatest
fears—and
discovered
I
could
do
more
than
I
ever
gave
myself
credit?(认可)?for.
I
found
a
new
person
inside
me,
a
much
more
daring,
outgoing
person?who
had
been
hidden
all
along,
just
waiting
for
the
opportunity
to
appear.
?
?
If
not
for?my
teacher,
Mrs.?Sather,?I
might
never
have
found
that
opportunity.
?
?
In
the
first
and
second
grade,?I
was
extremely
shy.?I
had
friends,
but
it
just
wasn't?in
my
personality
to
be
very
outgoing,
even
when
I
knew
someone
well.
I
was
afraid
I
would
do
or
say
something
wrong,
so
usually
I
just
smiled
and
listened
to
other
people's
conversations.
I
did
well
in
school
and
I
loved
to
write.
However,
I
would
escape
into
my
writing,
where
I
could
be
myself
and
never
had
to
worry
about
what
other
people
thought
of
me.
In
my
stories,
I
was
never
shy.
?
?
My
teacher,
Mrs.?Sather,
always
encouraged
me
to
write
more.
She
told
our
class
to
go
after
our
dreams
and
dig
in
with
both
hands.
I
think
she
was
one
of
the
first
people
to
see
my
inner
strength.
One
day,
she
announced
that
our
class
was
going
to
perform
a
play
she
had
written.?"I'll
begin
to
cast?(挑选演员)?everyone

When

Mrs.

stared
into
my
eyes
as
if
seeing
my
inner
self
locked
away
inside.
"I
would
love
you

I

It

"
Mrs.
Sather
wanted

She
shocked
me,
for
I
was
always
a
shy
person,
not
even
dare
to
speak
loud

Hearing
Mrs
Sather's
words,
I
realized
it
was
time
to
make

I
decided
to
throw
off
my
shy
cloak.
I
wanted
to
prove
that
I
also
could
do
something
good

After
seconds
of
hesitation,
I
nodded
my

confidently
saying
"
Mrs

I
want

no,
I
am
determined
to
play

And
I
will
try
my
best
to
perform
it
well."
Looking
at
me
with
a
big
smile
on
face,
Mrs
Sather
said
"I
believe
in

If
you
met
some

you
can
turn

me."
"Thank

Preparing
Cities
for
Robot
Cars
The
possibility
of
self-driving
robot
cars
has
often
seemed
like
a
futurist’s
dream,years
away
from
materializing
in
the
real
world.Well,the
future
is
apparently
now.The
California
Department
of
Motor
Vehicles
began
giving
permits
in
April
for
companies
to
test
truly
self-driving
cars
on
public
roads.The
state
also
cleared
the
way
for
companies
to
sell
or
rent
out
self-driving
cars,and
for
companies
to
operate
driverless
taxi
services.California,it
should
be
noted,isn’t
leading
the
way
panies
have
been
testing
their
vehicles
in
cities
across
the
country.It’s
hard
to
predict
when
driverless
cars
will
be
everywhere
on
our
roads.But
however
long
it
takes,the
technology
has
the
potential
to
change
our
transportation
systems
and
our
cities,for
better
or
for
worse,depending
on
how
the
transformation
is
regulated.
While
much
of
the
debate
so
far
has
been
focused
on
the
safety
of
driverless
cars(and
rightfully
so),policymakers
also
should
be
talking
about
how
self-driving
vehicles
can
help
reduce
traffic
jams,cut
emissions(排放)
and
offer
more
convenient,affordable
mobility
options.The
arrival
of
driverless
vehicles
is
a
chance
to
make
sure
that
those
vehicles
are
environmentally
friendly
and
more
shared.
Do
we
want
to
copy—or
even
worsen—the
traffic
of
today
with
driverless
cars?Imagine
a
future
where
most
adults
own
individual
self-driving
vehicles.They
tolerate
long,slow
journeys
to
and
from
work
on
packed
highways
because
they
can
work,entertain
themselves
or
sleep
on
the
ride,which
encourages
urban
spread.They
take
their
driverless
car
to
an
appointment
and
set
the
empty
vehicle
to
circle
the
building
to
avoid
paying
for
parking.Instead
of
walking
a
few
blocks
to
pick
up
a
child
or
the
dry
cleaning,they
send
the
self-driving
minibus.The
convenience
even
leads
fewer
people
to
take
public
transport—an
unwelcome
side
effect
researchers
have
already
found
in
ride-hailing(叫车)
services.
A
study
from
the
University
of
California
at
Davis
suggested
that
replacing
petrol-powered
private
cars
worldwide
with
electric,self-driving
and
shared
systems
could
reduce
carbon
emissions
from
transportation
80%
and
cut
the
cost
of
transportation
infrastructure(基础设施)
and
operations
40%
by
2050.Fewer
emissions
and
cheaper
travel
sound
pretty
appealing.The
first
commercially
available
driverless
cars
will
almost
certainly
be
fielded
by
ride-hailing
services,considering
the
cost
of
self-driving
technology
as
well
as
liability
and
maintenance
issues(责任与维护问题).But
driverless
car
ownership
could
increase
as
the
prices
drop
and
more
people
become
comfortable
with
the
technology.
Policymakers
should
start
thinking
now
about
how
to
make
sure
the
appearance
of
driverless
vehicles
doesn’t
extend
the
worst
aspects
of
the
car-controlled
transportation
system
we
have
today.The
coming
technological
advancement
presents
a
chance
for
cities
and
states
to
develop
transportation
systems
designed
to
move
more
people,and
more
affordably.The
car
of
the
future
is
coming.We
just
have
to
plan
for
it.
4.According

the
author,attention
should
be
paid
to
how
driverless
cars
can
.?
A.help
deal
with
transportation-related
problems
B.provide

customers
C.cause
damage
to
our

Scientists
think
that
growing
garden
grass
could
be
the
secret
to
solving
our
energy
needs,
and
we
may
soon
be
able
to
replace
our
gasoline
with
“grassoline".
The
team,
including
experts
from
Cardiff
University
in
Wales,
has
shown
that
hydrogen（氢）can
be
taken
from
grass
in
useful
amounts
with
the
help
of
sunlight
and
a
cheap
catalyst—something
that
speeds
up
a
chemical
reaction
without
being
used
up.
It
is
the
first
time
that
this
has
been
shown
and
it
could
lead
to
a
sustainable
way
of
making
hydrogen,
reported
Asian
News
International.
This
could
be
an
important
kind
of
renewable
energy
because
it
is
high
in
energy
and
it
does
not
give
out
harmful
gases
when
it
is
burned.
Study
co-author
Michael
Bowker
said，
"This
is
really
a
green
source
of
energy.
Hydrogen
is
seen
as
an
important
future
energy
carrier
as
the
world
moves
from
fossil
fuels
to
renewable
energy,
and
our
research
has
shown
that
even
garden
grass
could
be
a
good
way
of
getting
it.
”
Cellulose（纤维素）,which
is
a
key
part
of
plants
and
the
biopolymer（生物聚合物）
found
in
the
largest
numbers
on
the
earth,
could
be
a
great
source
of
hydrogen.
In
their
study,
the
team
looked
at
the
possibility
of
getting
hydrogen
from
cellulose
using
sunlight
and
a
simple
catalyst.
This
is
called
photocatalysis（(催化作用）and
in
it,
the
sunlight
starts
the
catalyst,
which
then
makes
cellulose
and
water
into
hydrogen.
The
researchers
studied
the
effectiveness
of
three
metal-based
catalysts?
of
which
nickel（镍）especially
interested
the
researchers,
as
it
is
a
much
more
common
metal
than
gold
and
palladium
and
it
saves
more
money.
According
to
Bowker,
producing
hydrogen
from
cellulose
using
photocatalysis
has
not
been
studied
in
detail.
The
team's
research
shows
that
large
amounts
of
hydrogen
can
be
produced
using
this
method
with
the
help
of
a
bit
of
sunlight
and
a
cheap
catalyst.
The
study
shows
that
it
is
effective
to
use
real
grass
taken
from
a
garden.
"This
is
important
as
it
avoids
the
need
to
separate
and
clean
up
cellulose,
which
can
be
both
difficult
and
costly,"
said
Bowker.
8.What
arc
needed
to
get
hydrogen
from
grass?
A.A
catalyst
and
palladium.
B.Water
and
cellulose.
C.Sunlight
and
a
biopolymer.
D.Sunlight
and
a
catalyst.
9.
Why
is
the
new
way
of
making
hydrogen
considered
significant?
A.
It
is
cheap,
green
and
sustainable.
B.
It
is
the
best
to
produce
the
renewable
energy.
C.
It
is
more
productive
and
efficient
than
other
methods.
D.
It
can
replace
the
way
to
make
fossil
fuels
completely.
10.Why
docs
nickel
interest
the
researchers
in
making
hydrogen
from
cellulose?
A.
It
can
produce
the
largest
amount
of
hydrogen.
B.It
can
avoid
separating
and
cleaning
up
cellulose.
C.It
is
more
common
than
other
metals
and
costs
less.
D.It
works
quicker
than
other
metals
during
photocatalysis.
11,What
does
the
author
intend
to
tell
us
mainly
in
this
passage?
A.Catalysts
that

Black
Friday
does
not
offer
the
bargains
it
claims,
consumer
experts
warned.
Almost
all
of
the
'deals'
promoted
around
the
event
last
year
were
actually
on
offer
for
the
same
price
or
cheaper
in
the
six
months
either
before
or
after.
Remarkably,
just
1
in
20
was
actually
the
cheapest
price
on
that
date.
Consumer
group
Which?
has
told
shoppers
to
be
wary
of
what
they
describe
as
the
'Great
Black
Friday
Swindle'
after
analyzing
dozens
of
offers
from
Amazon,
John
Lewis
and
Currys
PC
World.
Imported
from
the
US,
Black
Friday
always
falls
on
the
last
Friday
of
November.
This
is
because
the
sales
are
scheduled
to
follow
the
American
holiday
of
Thanksgiving
which
takes
place
the
day
before.
In
Britain,
the
event
has
been
a
disaster
for
many
retailers—particularly
those
with
a
high
street
presence—because
they
feel
they
have
to
slash
prices
or
risk
missing
out
on
the
first
flush
of
festive
spending.
Before
Black
Friday
crossed
the
Atlantic,
shops
held
off
advertising
discounts
until
the
last
minute
before
Christmas.
However.
the
November
sales
event
now
leads
to
a
huge
spending
splurge
（挥霍）
over
the
weekend——only
to
be
followed
by
empty
stores
and
streets
through
December.
Now
research
by
Which?
suggests
the
Black
Friday
sales
themselves
are
not
all
they
seem.
Which?
tracked
the
prices
of
83
products
on
sale
on
Black
Friday
in
2018
for
a
year,
from
six
months
before
the
day
until
six
months
after.
Researchers
found
just
four
deals—5
percent—were
cheaper
on
Black
Friday
than
at
other
times.
Six
in
ten
of
the
products
on
offer,
which
included
speakers,
soundbars
and
kitchen
appliances,
were
cheaper
or
the
same
price
on
at
least
one
day
in
the
six
months
before
the
event.
And
Which?
found
that
three
in
four
products
were
cheaper
or
the
same
price
in
the
six
months
afterwards,
when
compared
with
the
deals
offered
in
two
weeks
around
Black
Friday,
Natalie
Hitchins
at
Which?
said："We
have
repeatedly
shown
that
'deals'
touted
by
retailers
on
Black
Friday
are
not
as
good
as
they
seem.
Time-limited
sales
can
be
a
good
opportunity
to
bag
a
bargain,
but
don't
fall
for
the
pressure
tactics
around
Black
Friday.
Our
investigation
indicates
that
this
popular
shopping
event
is
all
hype（大肆宣传)and
there
are
few
genuine
discounts.
"
An
investigative
study
of
Black
Friday,
led
by
West
Chester
University
Professor
Gina
Castle
Bell,
observed
themes
of
consumerism
but
also
observed
the
themes
of
a
happy
holiday.
The
researchers
found
through
Black
Friday
people
celebrate,
plan,
bond,
and
build
traditions
together.
For
me
my
Black
Friday
always
begins
and
ends
on
a
living
room
floor
littered
with
newspaper
ads.
There,
late
on
Thanksgiving
night,
my
family
collectively
holds
a
strategy
session.
Later,
we
race
to
early
bird
specials,
wait
with
strangers
in
lines
sharing
stories
of
past
Black
Fridays,
take
a
long
relaxing
lunch
full
of
family
banter
（打趣），get
Christmas
decorations,
stop
into
a
Cheesecake
Factory
bar
to
see
the
dramatic
end
of
a
football
game,
get
a
caffeine-high
from
Starbucks
Christmas
drinks,
and
end
the
shopping
at
a
torn
apart
Old
Navy（美国服装品牌），digging
to
find
late
available
basics
like
socks.
Finally,
exhausted
but
contented,
we
collapse
back
on
that
living
room
floor,
still
littered
with
ads,
where
we
drink
hot
cocoa,
watch
a
Christmas
movie,
and
plan
to
hang
the
new
decorations.

Top
tips
for
students
doing
voluntary
holiday
work
I
have
had
some
of
the
best
and
worst
experiences
of
my
life
doing
voluntary
projects.
Having
taken
part
in
a
few
such
programs
before,
here
are
some
tips
I
have
picked
up.
16
Many
of
these
schemes
arc
advertised
on
legal
websites,
but
even
these
can
have
hosts
who
take
advantage
of
them.
These
people
will
advertise
something
that
simply
isn't
true
and
when
you
arrive,
the
arrangement
may
be
different
from
what
you
expected.
Choose
somewhere
with
a
lot
of
positive
reviews.
Many
sites
that
advertise
work
projects
have
a
space
for
reviews.
Reviews
tend
to
mean
people
have
been
there.
And
positive
reviews
indicate
people
enjoyed
it.
Again,
be
cautious
because
reviews
can
be
faked.
17
Bring
a
friend
or
a
few.
18
And
it's
good
to
have
a
partner
if
you
end
up
in
a
difficult
situation.
Try
to
find
a
friend
with
some
good
skills
to
travel
with
you.
Trade
skills
can
be
very
useful.
19
In
one
place
where
I
volunteered,
a
team
member
complained
about
having
to
work
a
few
hours
a
clay.
He
didn't
seem
to
realize
it
was
a
small
（or
no）
price
to
pay
to
live
in
a
hotel
with
food
and
a
swimming
pool
for
free.
If
you
find
a
good
place,
don't
move
on
too
soon.
If
you
like
the
work
and
you're
getting
free
food
and
accommodation,
why
leave?
20
Anyway?
volunteering
is
an
amazing
experience.
Enjoy
it.
A.
Only
go
if
you
intend
to
work.
B.
Learn
the
language
of
where
you
are
going.
C.
It
can
be
nice
to
have
a
familiar
face
around.
D.
The
grass
isn't
always
greener
on
the
other
side.
E.
Don't
believe
everything
you
read
on
the
Internet.
F.
Besides,
what
one
person
loves
may
not
be
your
cup
of
tea.
G.
People
are
likely
to
ask
you
to
help
them
with
their
projects.

To
celebrate
his
girlfriend’s
birthday,?Luke
Fortune?drove
from
a
small
town
in
Central
Oregon
to?Portland,
where
he
parked
his
car
in
a
paid
garage
overnight.
The
next
morning,
he
discovered
that
the
car’s
window
had
been
smashed,
along
with
his
dreams
for
the
future:
His
backpack
and?computer?were
gone.
?“Everything
important
to
me
was
on
that
computer,”
said
Fortune,
21,
who
is?studying?to
become
a?paramedic(护理人员).
“My
classwork,
every
paper
I’d
written,
and
all
the
programs
I
needed
for
my
paramedic
tests.
Every
letter
I
was
working
on
for
job
applications.
I
felt
sick.”
Two
days
after
the
theft,
another
young
man
was
standing
outside
his
apartment,
also
in
Portland.?Masoud
Almazrouei,
29,
is
an
exchange?student?from
the
United
Arab
Emirates.
He
had
been
approached
by
a
man
who
said
he
had
a
computer
for
sale.
Only
$200.
Almazrouei,
who
had
been
in
the
United
States
for
only
a
year,
admits
now
that
he
was
naive(天真).
But
he
needed
a
computer,
so
he
bought
it,
took
it
home,
and
turned
it
on.
Within?seconds,
he
saw
files
and
photographs.?
“I
wondered
who
would
sell
a
computer
with
all
of
this
on
it,”
he
said.
“I
realized
it
could
be?stolen.”
Almazrouei
found
what
appeared
to
be
the
owner’s
cellphone
number
and
called
it.
“This
guy
with
a
thick
accent
told
me
he
had
my
computer,”
Fortune
said.
“He
told
me
the?story?and
said
it
was
his
fault.
I
thought
it
was
a
scam(骗局).
I
told
him
if
he
really
had
the
computer,
he
should
take
it
to
the
police.”
Soon
after,
a
police
officer
called
Fortune
to
say
that
a
man
had
dropped
the
computer
off
and
had
said
he
was
sorry.
He
passed
along
the
man’s
number.

he

We’ve
all
been
there:those
times
you
need
to
argue
your
point
of
view
to
someone
who
you
know
disagrees
with
you.You
immediately
go
to
your
keyboard
and
start
to
type
out
that
280-character
tweet,the
Facebook
reply,or
a
paragraphs-long
email.Surely
the
reason,logic,and
strong
power
of
your
written
words
will
convince
whoever
it
is
who
disagrees
with
you
to
see
your
point
of
view.But
new
research
suggests
a
different
idea.
That
research
was
conducted
by
Juliana
Schroeder,assistant
professor
of
University
of
California,Berkeley,and
her
colleagues.In
Schroeder’s
study
of
almost
300
people,participants
were
asked
to
watch,listen,and
read
arguments
about
subjects
they
agreed
or
disagreed
with.They
were
asked
to
judge
the
character
of
the
communicator
and
the
quality
of
the
argument.Schroeder’s
team
found
that
the
participants
who
watched
or
listened
to
the
communicator
were
less
dismissive
(抵触的)
of
their
claims
than
when
they
read
that
communicator’s
same
argument.
The
idea
for
her
study
came
from
a
newspaper
article
about
a
politician.She
read
a
speech
that
was
printed
in
a
newspaper
from
a
politician
with
whom
she
strongly
disagreed.The
next
week,she
heard
the
exact
same
speech
playing
on
a
radio
station.She
was
shocked
by
how
different
her
reaction
was
toward
the
politician
when
she
read
the
speech
compared
to
when
she
heard
it.When
she
read
the
statement,the
politician
seemed
idiotic,but
when
she
heard
it
spoken,the
politician
actually
sounded
reasonable.
So
in
the
workplace,speaking
to
someone
in
person
often
involves
nothing
more
than
walking
a
few
doors
down
to
their
office.And
that’s
exactly
what
you
should
do
if
you
need
to
convince
that
boss
or
colleague
of
why
your
blueprint
for
the
company
or
project
is
the
right
one.
Only
as
a
last
way
should
you
try
to
communicate
with
someone
who
you
disagree
with
over
social
media.Twitter’s
limited
text
allowance
and
social
media
users’
short
attention
make
arguing
your
point
an
uphill
battle.
1.What’s
the
result
of
the
research?
A.Written
words
are
more
logical
and
reasonable.
B.People
prefer
to
communicate
with
key
board.
C.When
reading
an
argument,the
participants
were
less
dismissive
than
hearing
it.
D.Oral,not
written,communication
works
better.
2.Why
is
the
politician
mentioned
in
Paragraph
3?
A.To
introduce
the
topic
for
discussion.
B.To
summarize
the
previous
paragraphs.
C.To
explain
why
Schroeder
conducted
the
research.
D.To
introduce
the
politician’s
speech.
3.What
does
the
underlined
word
“idiotic”
in
Paragraph
3
mean?
A.Wise.
B.Practical.
C.Silly.
D.Special.
4.What
can
we
infer
from
the
last
two
paragraphs?
A.To
persuade
your
boss,you
need
to
walk
to
his
office
and
leave
a
message.
B.It’s
difficult
to
fully
explain
your
points
due
to
social
media’s
limitation.
C.Arguing
over
social
media
is
more
convenient
than
speaking
in
person.
D.Communicating
with
others
over
social
media
is
encouraged.

There
are
as
many
kinds
of
careers（职业）as
there
are
people.
They
vary
greatly
in
the
type
of
work
involved（涉及）and
in
the
ways
they
influence
a
person's
life.
The
kind
of
career
you
have
can
affect
your
life
in
many
ways.
By
making
wise
decisions
concerning
your
career,
you
can
help
yourself
build
the
life
you
want.
To
do
that,
you
need
as
much
information
as
possible.
The
more
you
know
about
yourself,
the
better
able
you
will
be
to
choose
a
satisfying
career.
What
do
people
hope
to
obtain
from
a
career?
Some
people
desire
a
high
income.
Some
hope
for
fame.
Others
seek
for
adventure.
Still
others
intend
to
serve
people
and
make
the
world
a
better
place.
Before
you
begin
to
explore
career
fields
you
should
determine
your
values,
your
interests,
and
your
aptitudes
that
will
make
you
competent
for
your
future
work.
Most
people
are
happiest
in
jobs
that
fit
their
values,
interests,
and
skills.
Each
person
has
many
values,
which
vary
in
strength.
For
example,
money
is
the
strongest
value
for
some
people
—
that
is,
wealth
is
more
important
to
them
than
anything
else.
As
a
result,
hey
focus
their
thoughts,
behaviour,
and
emotions
on
the
goal
of
earning
a
high
income.
Other
values
include
devoting
to
religion,
taking
risks,
spending
time
with
family,
and
helping
others.
Before
making
a
career
decision,
you
can
ask
yourself
what
is
most
important
to
you
and
examine
your
beliefs
to
better
know
your
values.
For
example,
is
it
important
to
you
to
work
as
a
member
of
a
team?
Or
would
you
rather
be
in
charge
or
work
alone?
If
working
alone
or
being
in
charge
is
important
to
you,
independence
is
probably
one
of
your
primary
values.
8.How
can
we
make
a
wise
career
decision?
A.
We
learn
more
about
ourselves.
B.
We
stick
to
our
beliefs
more
firmly.
C.
We
change
our
interest
more
often.
D.
We
find
more
career
opportunities.
9.What
does
the
underlined
word
"aptitude"
mean
in
paragraph
2?
A.
Experiences.
B.
Abilities.
C.
Feelings.
D.
Families.
10.According
to
the
writer,
a
satisfying
career
is
one
that.
A.brings
huge
wealth
B.meets
inner
demands
C.develops
interests
and
skills
D.contributes
to
forming
values
11.What
does
the
writer
convey
to
us
in
the
last
paragraph?
A.The
contents
of
our
values.
B.The
foundations
of
our
values.
C.
The
places
to
achieve
our
values.
D.
The
ways
to
understand

Apple
has
filed
a
patent
for
"a
wearable
electronic
ring"
that
could
let
you
control
your
other
devices
（设备）without
touching
them.
The
file
includes
drawings
of
the
potential
design
and
lists
intended
functions
like
a
rechargeable
power
source（电源）.The
ring
is
designed
to
be
worn
on
one
finger
and
doesn't
appear
to
be
a
stand-alone
product.
Instead,
it
aims
to
improve
the
user
experience
of
bigger
devices
like
iPhone
and
iPad.
Apple
also
throws
attention
onto
the
potential
safety
functions
of
the
ring
by
stating
that
the
light
given
off
by
some
touchscreen
devices
could
be
"
inappropriate
in
certain
social
environments
or
even
dangerous
if
it
gives
away
the
position
of
a
user
who
is
in
danger”.
The
tech
giant（巨头）explains
in
the
patent
that
touchscreen
devices
we
are
using
now
can
be
seen
"burdensome,
inconvenient,
or
useless
for
certain
tasks
and
applications'
.
It
suggests
that
holding
an
iPhone
or
iPad
for
too
long
could
tire
some
users
and
obviously,
Apple
can't
ignore
such
situations!
It
says
the
Apple
Ring
could
be
a
more
effective
way
to
control
those
devices
from
a
distance.
Apple
isn't
alone
with
this
"smart
ring”
idea.
Amazon
recently
put
the
Echo
Loop
on
the
market,
a
smart
ring
that
uses
Alexa.
The
device
is
similar
to
the
smart
speaker
but
is
worn
on
your
finger
instead.
It's
currently
only
available
in
the
US
and
has
an
introductory
price
of
$
129.
99
(?100).
Google
recently
presented
its
Pixel
4
smartphone
and
one
of
the
top
new
functions
is
called
Project
Soli,
which
provides
a
"Motion
Sense"
effect.
It
lets
you
control
the
Pixel
4
without
actually
touching
it.
You
can
wave
your
hands
in
the
air
to
pause
or
skip
songs.
silence
alarms
and
phone
calls,
and
more.
As
with
all
patents,
we
can't
know
for
sure
if
Apple
is
going
to
bring
out
a
smart
ring
device
until
official
word
is
given.
12.What
can
Apple's
smart
ring
do
potentially?
A.
Work
as
a
mobile
phone.
B.
Charge
itself
automatically.
C.
Promote
users'
own
security.
D.
Slop
viruses
attacking
phones.
13.What
made
Apple
develop
the
wearable
product?
A.
The
drawbacks
of
its
touchscreen
devices.
B.
The
huge
marketing
potential
of
touchscreens
C.
The
fierce

概要写作练习
A
typical
lion
tamer(驯兽师)in
people’s
mind
is
an
entertainer
holding
a
whip(鞭子)and
a
chair.The
whip
gets
all
of
the
attention,
but
it’s
mostly
for
show.In
reality,
it’s
the
chair
that
does
the
important
work.When
a
lion
tamer
holds
a
chair
in
front
of
the
lion’s
face,
the
lion
tries
to
focus
on
all
four
legs
of
the
chair
at
the
same
time.With
its
focus
divided,
the
lion
becomes
confused
and
is
unsure
about
what
to
do
next.When
faced
with
so
many
options,
the
lion
chooses
to
freeze
and
wait
instead
of
attacking
the
man
holding
the
chair.
How
often
do
you
find
yourself
in
the
same
position
as
the
lion?
How
often
do
you
have
something
you
want
to
achieve(e.g.
lose
weight,
start
a
business,
travel
more)—only
to
end
up
confused
by
all
of
the
options
in
front
of
you
and
never
make
progress?
This
upsets
me
to
no
end
because
while
all
the
experts
are
busy
debating
about
which
option
is
the
best,
the
people
who
want
to
improve
their
lives
are
left
confused
by
all
of
the
conflicting
information.The
end
result
is
that
we
feel
like
we
can’t
focus
or
that
we’re
focused
on
the
wrong
things,
and
so
we
take
less
action,
make
less
progress,
and
stay
the
same
when
we
could
be
improving.
It
doesn’t
have
to
be
that
way.Anytime
you
find
the
world
waving
a
chair
in
your
face,
remember
this:All
you
need
to
do
is
to
focus
on
one
thing.You
just
need
to
get
started.
Starting
before
you
feel
ready
is
one
of
the
habits
of
successful
people.
If
you
have
somewhere
you
want
to
go,
something
you
want
to
accomplish,
someone
you
want
to
become...take
immediate
action.If
you’re
clear
about
where
you
want
to
go,
the
rest
of
the
world
will
either
help
you
get
there
or
get
out
of
the
way.?

What
really
matters
in
a
lion
taming
is
the
chair,
which
confuses
the
lion
by
the
four
legs.(要点1)
So
do
people
in
the
face
of
too
many
options.(要点2)
We
are
always
prevented
from
making
progress
because
we
can’t
make
sound
choices
before
the
conflicting
information.(要点3)
So
if
you
want
to
be
successful,
focus
on
one
thing
and
get
started
quickly.(要点4)
