Spilling coffee is never fun, but for German designer Stefan Kuhnigk is turned out to be a blessing in disguise(因祸得福）. He turned that first coffee stain into a small monster and has been creating Coffee Monsters ever since. Stefan recalls looking at the stain his cup of dark espresso(a type of coffee of Italian origin) left on a piece of paper and it looking back at him as if saying “Draw me,draw me, draw meee!”So he did just that, and created his very first Coffee Monster. The next day, he thought back to this little accident that he had challenged him to get creative, and decided he could reproduce the coffee spill every day as an exercise in creativity. When Stefan started using a spoon to spill coffee on piece of paper every day, his designer colleagues looked at him like he was crazy, but they didn’t know about the artworks that lay hidden in those random coffee stains. Stefan Kuhnigk has created almost 600 lovable Coffee Monsters, as well as a charming backstory for each one of them. They may be monsters, but they’re the cute kind you’s expect to find in a children’s book. They tend to have a smile on their faces, because they have a very important role ----to make people happy. To create Coffee Monsters, Stefan spills some coffee on a piece of paper, lets it dry for 4 to 6 hours, then uses a pencil to draw around the random shapes. “My favourite moment up until now has been ,when someone wrote me, that the monsters make her happy every day, ”Stefan Kuhnigk wrote on Bored Panda, “This is so cheerful and because of messages like that I do it again and again. It never gets old for me, because a spill is never the same. ” Stefan shared his Coffee Monsters on his social media pages, and also published a Coffee Monster book featuring his best creations. 【1】At first , Stefan’s colleagues thought his coffee spill action was ___________. A.strange B.impressive C.fancy D.lucky 【2】The Coffee Monster are created with an aim to _________. A.frighten children B.make people pleased C.inspire people to quit coffee D.teach children important lessons 【3】What keeps Stefan motivated to continue drawing Coffee Monster? A.People’s appreciation B.the huge profit they bring C.his dissatisfaction with his creations D.other designer’s challenges 【4】What can we learn about Stefan Kuhnigk? A.He published several adult’s book. B.He’s a careless people C.He draws for 4 to 8 hours a day. D.He is full of imagination. |

Everyone judge the film through a different angle. If you a doctor, you may think:”That character would not have survived that fall.” If you’re a physicist : That’s not how black holes work.” And if you’re me, it’s more like: “What a dumb concept of future personal technology!” It makes me crazy when sci-fi movie makers dream up stuff with no basis in science.Human teleporters(传送器)? Sorry, Star Trek. A bed that detects and cures cancer in seconds? No, Elysium. On the other hand, some technologies in some movies are so practical that people invest them in the real world. Star Trek’s self opening doors are now a standard feature of grocery store entrances, and the driver less cars from Total Recall(and many other films )are already on American roads. Lately it’s clear that Hollywood’s production designers have been putting serious thought into the tech we’ll someday crazy. Her , for example, is about a man who falls in love with his siri-like voice assistant. He talks to her through a single earbud(耳机），through which he gets a surprising amount done: processing e-mail, flipping through news stories, sending messages. When an image is essential to the communication, he flips open his phone, where the pictures appears. The solution makes a lot of sense-----more than , for example, Google Glass, a now dis continued headband that place a miniature screen above your eyebrow. It’s not the technical ones but the social missteps(失策) that make the Glass’s plan fail. Glass’s camera frightened others and made you look like a monster. You can see why people went nuts over the concept: imagine having all the power of a smart phone without actually needing a smart phone. We won’t see this in the real world, though. Even a projector, battery and processor could be squeezed into a thin band, there remains a lot of challenges. How would the projector attain sharp focus on an irregular , moving palm? How would it project on sunny day? How would it work on very light or very dark skin? The robots in HBO’s westwood----so perfectly designed that we can’t tell the robots from humans----might be a little untrue. Yet the personal tech in that series makes a lot of sense: the characters carry cardboard-thin, trifold phones. When you need a quick check, you glance at it’s “cover”; when you need the bigger picture, you unfold it into a tablet.（平板） Most of these shows, however, continue to get one thing wrong: obviously,in the future, our computers make little sounds as their text and images appear. Why do movie makers think that adding silly sound effects make their machines more realistic? In the real world, a room full of burbling screens makes us crazy. Well, I suppose I should let that part go. They’re just movies, right? They’re not a description of the future----at least not yet. 【1】Which of the following best describe the technologies in the movies? A.They are too unrealistic to become true. B.They are making a lot of sense . C.They are not favoured by viewers. D.They are appearing mostly in scientific movies. 【2】What does the underlined word “went nuts over” in paragraph 6 most probably mean？ A.not interested in B.be crazy about C.be disappointed about D.be worried about 【3】What can we learn from the passage? A.We will live in future where the film predict B.The movies give a right description of our future. C.The advanced technology contributes to the popularity of the films. D.Some technology in films might be not welcome in the real world. 【4】What can we infer from paragraph 7? A.The design of the robots are the same with human. B.The tech applied in the movie are far from reality. C.The phones created in the movie can be real in our life one day. D.The film is well-received for its advanced technology. 【5】What can be a suitable title for the passage? A.How well do movies predict our future? B.The future of the science films。 C.The more technology, the better. D.The imagination of future movies. |

We all know that music is a powerful influencer. A movie without a soundtrack doesn’t inspire the same emotional journey. A workout without a pump-up can feel very boring. But is there a way to quantify these reactions? In a new paper, researchers at the University of Southern California mapped out how things like pitch, rhythm, and harmony trigger different types of activity,psychological reactions, and emotions and how machine learning could use those relationships to predict how people might respond to a new piece of music. The results, presented at a conference show how we may one day be able to engineer targeted music experiences for purposes ranging from therapy(医疗）to movies. The research is part of the lab’s broader goal to understand how different forms of media, such as films and TV ads as well as music, affect people’s bodies and brains. “Once we understand how media can affect your various emotions, then we can try to productively use it for actually supporting or improve human experiences,” says Shrikanth Narayanan, a professor at USC and the chef researcher in the lab. The research first searched music sites like Spotify for songs with very few plays, tagged either”happy” or “sad”. Through a series of human tests, 6o pieces for each emotion were narrowed down to a final list of three: two that reliably caused sadness and one that reliably caused happiness. One hundred participants who hadn’t heard the songs before split into two groups, listened to all three pieces, and either took an FMRI scan or wore pulse, heat, and eccentricity sensors on their skin and rated their emotions on a scale of 0 to 10. The research then fed the data, along with 74 features for each song into several machine-learning algorithms(算法）and examined which features were the strongest predictors of responses. They found, for example, that the brightness of a song and the strength of its beat were both among the best predictors of how a song would affect a listener’s hart rate and brain activity. The research is still in very early stages, and it will be a while before more powerful machine-learning models will be able to predict your mental and physical reactions to a song with any precision. But the researchers are excited about how such modes could be applied: to design music for specific individuals, to help patients with mental health challenges stimulate(刺激） specific part of their brain. The lab is already working with addiction treatment clinics to see how other forms of media could help patients. More simply, the research could be use to general playlists. “ You wouldn’t want to listen to a song that’s gonna make your heart rate speed up right before bedtime, but maybe you do if your ‘r going on a long drive and you haven’t had much coffee,” says Greer. 【1】The writer mentioned the movie, workout at he beginning of the passage in order to ________ A.Show the importance of music B.introduce the issue about relaxation C.remind people of entertainment D.discuss the relationship between music and brains. 【2】According to the passage, why do researcher think we may be able to engineer targeted music for different purposes? A.Because it can improve life experiences B.Because it has been proved successful. C.Because it can benefit humans. D.Because it can be profitable. 【3】The problems faced by the research is that______________ A.It lacks the financial support from the government. B.It will take a long while to search for various styles of songs. C.The machine-learning models that predict reactions is still on the way D.The data collected form the participants are not reliable 【4】what do paragraph 4 and 5 mainly talk about? A.The contents of the research. B.The drawbacks of the research. C.The process of the research D.The findings of the research 【5】What is not mentioned about the fields the music modes could be applied? A.engineer different music for individuals B.treat mental problem patients by stimulating their brains C.make people feel more energetic for driving D.keep people informed of the latest music 【6】Which best describe the researchers’ attitude in the passage? A.doubtful B.objective C.negative D.enthusiastic |

Dressing for a job, an interview, an internship, a networking event, etc. Is a source of anxiety for everyone at some point in their career. Each company and event are different, so it can be nerve-racking not knowing what the proper dress code is, what you can and can’t wear. 【1】 There’s also the question of what season is, what city you’re working in, whether you walk to work or not, and whether you ‘ll be sitting or standing most of the time, among other concerns! Types of business attire 【2】 these are probably terms you’ve heard before, but after reading this, you should have a good understanding of what clothes word for what dress code.The three types of dress are : Professional Dress, Business Casual, and Campus Casual. Professional Dress Business professional attire is the most conservative type of business wear. It’s what you’’ll be expected to wear in the office if you work in accounting finance, or other conservative industries. this style is also known as “business formal.”For women, business professional means a business suit or pants suit, or an appropriate dress and jacket. Business Casual Business casual attire is a more relaxed version of “Professional Dress.”, but it doesn’t mean you’re actually going to be “casual!”.【3】.Business casual is a shirt with a collar and/or a sweater. Women can also sometimes wear a moderate-length dress or skirt with a collar or a sweater. No tie is required. Although it is business casual, it is important that you look more business appropriate than casual. Many people confuse business casual as just casual dressing but it still means dressing like you are going to an office. Business casual is not as buttoned-up or formal as professional dress but not as casual as campus casual. Campus Casual Campus casual is what you probably won’t be wearing to work. This is the technical term for what you’re probably wearing every day----jeans,tee shirts ,sandals,sneakers. You may be asked to wear campus casual to some very important on-campus interviews and career days, and some casual networking events. 【4】However, that doesn’t mean campus casual is wrong. For instance, if your boss tells your to dress campus casual for an event that involves students, that most likely means your boss wants you to be able to relate to these students and let them know that they can just casually talk to you. 【5】 They’ll feel more comfortable to speak to you and the conversation will flow much better. Hopefully, these tips teach you about the business dress code basics. A.This is likely going to be your office dress code if you work in a semi-conservative workplace, but some interviews and events may also call for casual. B.Dressing campus casual is a great way to connect with student in a more casual setting. C.In general, you probably want to stay away from this in the workplace D.There are 3 main types of “business dress.” E.It is important to follow this business attire rule if you’re working in an office that sticks to it as you do not want to be seen as inappropriate or give off the impression that you don’t take your appearance seriously. F.For men, professional dress means a business suit or a blazer, dress pants and a tie. G.You want to make the best impression, or course, and your clothes say a lot about you and who you are. |

阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。 The biggest threat posed by the covid-19 outbreak is,of course, the health risks it poses. But that is not the only risk: Avoidance, social distancing and panic may have great economic consequences, large enough to significantly slow growth, push up unemployment and ever drag the economy into a decline. In this respect, people who suffer most are low-waged workers in low income households without paid leave. Many employers are already telling their white collar workers to work home. But low wage workers such as cleaners, food service workers and cashiers can’t work remotely. If these workers are temporarily free by specific quarantines(隔离）， they won’t get paid. Their families tend to have little savings and live in a terrible state . Without work, these families face risks of intense economic hardship. So we need a quickly effective policy that will maintain earnings for those who most depend on them. Many of these workers will be employed but temporarily free;others may lose their jobs as their employers try to manage shocks to their own business. A better solution is for employers to continue paying workers directly during shutdowns, In most cases, employers will want the workers back once the threat of the viruses weaken, According to the Bureau of Labour Statistics, about 40 percent of private company workers paid below the median lack laid leave benefits. As this crisis unfolds, the government in the world will be forced to launch some sort of quick response to reduce the effect of the virus. The question is: Will the measures be targeted to those who need them, or will it adopt the tax-cut mode? Millions of economic despair depend on policymakers getting this right. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ |
