Mark was a great kid from a tough neighborhood. Crime, drugs, fighting and poverty: You name the problem and his neighborhood had it. A scholarship fund provided his tuition to Catholic High, where he was a great baseball player. Mark struggled in the classroom, though. He was bright, just behind, due to a more than difficult home environment. But there were problems finding the time for all he needed to do. After-school tutoring seemed impossible because of baseball practice. Some suggested Mark abandon sports and concentrate on “schooling”. But, in reality, if he was going to attend college he would need his sports; so to miss practice and then perform any less than at his best on the field was not wise. A fellow teacher, Mrs. Jones, offered to tutor Mark in math at her home. I asked Mark to come to my house for other areas of work. No one paid us. Mrs. Jones summed it up this way: “Pay day doesn’t always come on Mondays”. When we were not working with Mark to improve his skills for the ACT, the coach and Mark’s dad took him to various colleges to talk with both baseball and football program coaches. He settled on the college that offered him scholarships to play both sports. But he needed a good ACT score. It takes months to receive the results of college entrance exams. One afternoon after school, while I was grading papers in my room, there was a noise outside the door. Mark came in, lifted me out of the seat behind my desk, spun(旋转) me around in the air, and yelled over and over: “I’m going to college! I’m going to college!” “I guess you got your scores!” I asked. “Well, yeah!” he laughed. “And guess what? I got one point more than I need to be admitted. One point extra. Thank you! Now, where’s Mrs. Jones? I’ve got to tell her too!” Until that moment, I had never quite understood what the expression “Pay day doesn’t always come on Mondays” meant. But it was clear to me the instant Mark ran into the room to announce his news. No amount of money could ever replace my spin in the air at the hands of a boy who finally had a chance at a better life. 【1】Mark had difficulty in learning mainly because ________. A. he spent most of his spare time practicing baseball B. his family couldn’t afford any tutoring for him C. his parent didn’t care about his study D. he was constantly involved in the crimes in his neighborhood 【2】According to the article, which of the following is false? A. The teachers offered to tutor Mark free of charge. B. Theft was a problem in Mark’s neighborhood. C. Mark owed his success in passing ACT to his teachers. D. Mark went to college mainly due to his good ACT score. 【3】The underlined word “settled on” in the fourth paragraph probably means _____. A. was accepted by B. reached a final decision about C. paid a visit to D. became familiar with 【4】What is the best title for this passage? A. Pay Day Will Come Some Day. B. Practice Makes a Better Life. C. Relationships between Teachers and Students. D. Never Give up on Yourself. |

Technology offers conveniences such as opening the garage door from your car or changing the television station without touching the TV. Now one American company is offering its employees a new convenience: a microchip implanted (植入) in their hands. Employees who have these chips can do all kinds of things just by waving their hands. Three Square Market is offering to implant microchips in all of their employees for free. Each chip costs $300 and Three Square Market will pay for the chip. Employees can volunteer to have the chips implanted in their hands. About 50 out of 80 employees have chosen to do so. The president of the company, his wife and their children are also getting chips implanted in their hands. The chip is about the size of a grain of rice. Implanting the chip only takes about a second and is said to hurt only very briefly. The chips go under the skin between the thumb and forefinger. With a chip in the hand, a person can enter the office building, buy food, sign into computers and more, simply by waving that hand near a scanner. The chips will be also used to identify employees. Employees who want convenience, but do not want to have a microchip implanted under their skin, can wear a wristband (腕带) or a ring with a chip instead. They can perform the same tasks with a wave of their hands as if they had an implanted chip. Three Square Market is the first company in the United States to offer to implant chips in its employees. Epicenter, a company in Sweden, has been implanting chips in its employees for a while. Three Square Market says the chip cannot track the employees. The company says scanners can read the chips only when they are within a few inches of them. “The chips protect against identity theft, similar, to credit cards.” The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the chips back in 2004, so they should be safe for humans, according to the company. In the future, people with the chips may be able to do more with them, even outside the office. Todd Westby is Chief Executive Officer of Three Square Market. He says, “Eventually, this technology will become standardized allowing you to use this as your passport, public transit, all purchasing opportunities, etc.” 【1】What is the third paragraph mainly about? A.The substitutes of the chips. B.The advantages of the chips. C.The places to implant the chips. D.The potential risks of implanting the chips. 【2】What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A.the hands B.the employees C.the credit cards D.the scanners 【3】We can infer that ________. A.the chips are very popular among the employees B.the chips have magic powers C.the price of the chips is reasonable D.most people suspect the application of the chips 【4】Which of the following best describes Todd Westby’s attitude towards the chips? A.Defensive. B.Disappointing. C.Optimistic. D.Casual. |

Stop wasting food is easy to say, but sometimes difficult to put into practice. 【1】 Here are some simple tips that you can easily apply on a daily basis. First, store your food properly. 【2】 After shopping, remember to store your refrigerated food in such a way that the air circulates well. Once you open the packaging, remember to put the remaining food in a sealable container or bag that will prevent it from going bad or giving off an unpleasant smell. Also, organize your fridge intelligently, instead of just placing everything casually.【3】 You also need to measure out the amounts well. Don't have eyes bigger than your stomach. When you're preparing a meal and you know there will be eight of you at the table, relax and don't make it for ten. Before going on vacation, avoid opening products that you're not sure you can finish. 【4】 Even if you go out to dinner with friends, you should still take leftovers home. Perhaps you've got yourself a free lunch the next day. 【5】 Be imaginative, of course! It is quite understandable if you don't want to eat bread that is not fresh at breakfast. You can turn it into French toast, bread pudding, or other forms. As for fruits that are a little too ripe for your taste, please don't throw them out; offer them a second chance by turning them into jams or some desserts. A.Donate food you're not going to use. B.It's also vital to transform your leftovers. C.Why should we buy exactly what you need? D.How to store foods makes a difference in how long they'll last. E.In restaurants, ask for a small plate if the quantities seem too large. F.Finally, clean your refrigerator regularly to prevent the growth of bacteria. G.How can we manage to avoid throwing food away as much as possible at home? |
