When you’re choosing a college a lot of factors probably may be considered: the school's reputation the classes offered, and the professors in your major, to name a few. However. considering the increasing competitiveness of universities to attract more and more applicants, many schools now offer extra benefits to be enjoyed by all of their students. Here are some of the coolest:
University of Missouri
When you think of a campus gym, you probably picture a room equipped with out-of-date machines. However, at the University of Missouri, you can enjoy one of the best campus fitness centers in the country.

Even if you don't normally enjoy working out, Missouri's fitness center will give you a reason to go to the gym.
High Point University

It's a first-class restaurant, and, best of all, you don't have to pay for the meal out of your own pocket. You can use your dining dollars instead.

My First Marathon
A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my firs P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn't do either well. He later informed me that I was “not athletic”.
The idea that I was “not athletic” stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. I was all about the batter against my own body and mind. A test of will!
The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied. So I sopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!
AI mile 3.1 passed sign: “GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!”
By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
By mile 21, 1 was starving!
As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), 1 can now call myself a “marathon winner”.

China is recognized as a world leader in the development of artificial intelligence and facial recognition systems. A Chinese company says it has created a new facial recognition system that can identify people even if they are wearing masks. Engineers at the Beijing-based company say their system is the first to be created to effectively identify people wearing face masks.
The company told a news agency that a team of 20 people built the system in about a month. The system is based on existing technologies developed over the past 10 years. The process involved adding a collection of about 6 million unmasked faces and a much smaller collection of masked faces, the company said.
The company is now selling two main kinds of products that use the new technology. One performs “single channel" recognition, which is designed to be used at the entrances to buildings.
The other product is a “multi-channel!” recognition system that uses groups of surveillance (监视) cameras. It can identify individuals in a crowd of up to 30 people within a second.
“When people are wearing a mask that covers the mouth and the nose, the recognition rate can reach about 95%, which can ensure that most people can be identified,” said Huang, vice president of the company. He added that the system's success rate for people not wearing a mask is about 99.5%.
However, the new system struggles to identify people wearing both a mask and sunglasses. "In this situation, all of the key facial information is lost. In such cases recognition is tough." Huang said.
People were reacting differently to the new technology. While some citizens have been against using such tools, the majority have accepted the technology as an elective way to decrease crime and catch criminals.
【1】What did the company do to build the system?
A.They gathered many face images. B.They employed hundreds of people.
C.They used the latest technology. D.They spent about a decade building it.
【2】According to the passage, which of the following can be true?
A.The new system has already been used by the police.
B.The recognition rate of masked faces is about 99.5%.
C.It's hard to recognize people with masks and sunglasses.
D.The single channel product is as powerful as the multi-channel.
【3】Which of the key facial information might have the biggest impact on recognition rate?
A.One's hair. B.One's nose. C.One's mouth. D.One's eyes.
【4】According to the passage, which kinds of people may use the new system?
A.Physicians. B.Clowns. C.Policemen. D.Lawyers.
【5】What is the main purpose of the text?
A.To show conflicting attitudes toward the system. B.To introduce a new facial recognition system.
C.To advertise two products of facial recognition. D.To show the advantages of facial recognition.

Yesterday my older neighbor, who takes care of part of our garden with great difficulty and efforts, was in deep shock. Obviously, my cats had left droppings(粪便)in his perfect flower beds.
Fortunately, my husband and 1 weren't at home when this happened, so he vented his anger on my friend,Katherine. She was kind enough to listen to him and to go down into the garden with him to have a look. She even took a picture!
When I got home, she had left a message on my answering machine about the incident. Having heard it was about my cats again, my stomach turned. Last year, he got so upset that he threatened to put rat traps on the roof, hoping that would warn me to keep my cats indoors. So, I was a little worried.
However, I couldn't help but laugh when I heard Katherine tell me what the whole incident was all about. I understand gardening is important to my neighbor and that he keeps his garden perfect to comfort his soul.
So when I saw him in the garden days later, I went over to talk to him.
And the talk turned out to be quite nice. I was really surprised to find that I had the wisdom not to respond to his comments on my cats.
Instead, I had conversations with him about the beautiful flowers he had planted, the color combinations, and the care he took in creating such a sense of order. I tried to convey my understanding and appreciation without arguing or talking down to him.
I was really amazed how that talk turned out. We haven't had a conversation like that for over a year!
