Cedar, a third-generation beekeeper from the countryside of New South Wales, Australia, says that he was inspired to try and design a simpler hive (蜂箱) after his brother was stung (蜇) during one of their honey-gathering tasks. The young guy knew that there must be a clever way to gather honey without having to wear protective suits, open the hive, and disturb the little bees. After several years, Cedar and his father Stuart finally perfected their invention—the Flow Hive, which can save beekeepers hours of work simply by channeling all of its honey into a tap that can be turned on and off at will. Four years after their initial success, the Flow Hive has had a big influence on honeybee populations around the world. The father and his son say that they have successfully shipped over 51,000 hives to 150 different countries. Since they introduced the hive in 2015, the number of beekeepers in the U.S.alone has increased by over 10%. Their success is particularly significant since honeybee populations have been steadily decreasing as a result of habitat loss. That's why now Stuart and Cedar Anderson are donating their hive earnings to international honeybee advocacy groups. “We’re proud to have donated 100% of profits from the sale of our Flow Pollinator (传粉昆虫) House to nine local pollinator projects in Australia and the U.S. that are at work protecting wild habitats all around the world,” said the Andersons in a statement. “Pollinators need large areas of habitat to grow healthily—the more we can do to conserve native habitats, the more opportunities these tiny environmental champions will have to do their important work.” 【1】What can we learn about Cedar? A.He is often hurt by honeybees. B.He is from a big city in Australia. C.He knows a lot about beekeeping. D.He dislikes working with his brother. 【2】Which of the following best describes the Flow Hive? A.It is friendly to the environment. B.It can improve the quality of honey. C.It can help bees produce more honey. D.It simplifies the honey-gathering process. 【3】Why do the Andersons make donations? A.To expand their business. B.To protect bees’ habitats. C.To build more Flow Hives. D.To help the poor in Australia. 【4】What would be the best title for the text? A.“Honey on Tap” Beehive B.The Cost of Beekeeping C.The Growth of a Beekeeper D.True Facts About Honeybees |

In order to help discover spoilage(变质）and reduce food waste for supermarkets and consumers,researchers have developed new low-cost,smart phone-linked, eco-friendly spoilage sensors for meat and fish packaging. One in three UK consumers throw away food just because it reaches the use-by date(保存期），but 60%(4.2 million tonnes)of the £12.5 billion-worth of food we throw away each year is safe to eat. The researchers,whose findings were published in ACS Sensors,say the sensors could also eventually replace the use-by date-a widely used indicator of being fresh and eatable. The sensors cost two US cents each to make.Known as"paper-based electrical gas sensors(PEGS)",they detect spoilage gases like ammonia(a poisonous gas with a strong unpleasant smell)in meat and fish products.The information provided by the electronic nose is received by a smart phone,and then you can know whether the food is fresh and safe to eat. The Imperial College London researchers who developed PEGS made the sensors by printing carbon electrodes(电极）onto a special type of paper.The materials are eco-friendly and harmless,so they don't damage the environment and are safe to use in food packaging.The sensors,combined with a tiny electronic system,then inform nearby mobile devices,which identify and understand the data about spoilage gases. Lead author Dr Firat Guder,of Imperial's Department of Bioengineering,said, ＂Although they're designed to keep us safe,use-by dates can lead to eatable food being thrown away.They don't always reflect its actual freshness.In fact,people often get sick from foodborne diseases due to poor storage,even when an item is within its use-by date. ＂These sensors are cheap enough so we hope to see supermarkets using them within three years.Our goal is to use PEGS in food packaging to reduce unnecessary food waste." The authors hope that PEGS could have applications beyond food processing,like sensing chemicals in agriculture,air quality,and detecting disease markers in breath like those involved in kidney disease. 【1】What is the function of PEGS according to the text? A.To improve the service of stores. B.To help supermarkets store foods. C.To improve the taste of food products. D.To help people test food freshness. 【2】What role does the smartphone play while PEGS are functioning? A.It acts as an electronic nose. B.It reads the data collected by PEGS. C.It discovers the spoilage gases from foods. D.It helps print the gas sensors onto paper. 【3】What does Dr Firat Guder say about use-by dates? A.They are not completely reliable. B.They can help reduce food waste. C.They are not accepted by consumers. D.They are based on scientific research. 【4】What does the author mainly talk about in the text? A.The process of researching spoilage sensors. B.A new technology in packaging to reduce food waste. C.Use-by dates 'influence on supermarkets and consumers. D.The application of spoilage sensors beyond food processing. |

Muazzez Kocek, 46, is considered one of the best whistlers in Kuskoy, a village in Turkey's northern Giresun province. Her whistle can be heard over the area’s vast tea fields. When President of Turkey visited Kusköy in 2012, she greeted him and proudly whistled, “Welcome to our village!” She uses kus dili, or “bird language”. For hundreds of years, this whistled form of communication has been critical for farming in this place, allowing complex conversations over long distances and making animal herding (放牧) easier to do. However, because of the increased use of cellphones, the language is at risk of dying out. Turkey is one of a handful of countries in the world where whistling languages exist. They attract linguistic (语言学的) experts very much. There is a long-held belief that language interpretation occurs mostly in the left hemisphere (大脑半球), and tunes and singing on the right. But a study conducted in Kuskoy suggests that whistling language is processed in both hemispheres. Organ Civelek, 37, who can whistle in full sentences, explained that they are very proud of their linguistic custom and want to share it with visitors. Since 1997, Kuskoy village has been hosting an annual Bird Language, Culture and Art Festival, where the community gathers to practice and compete. While technology is contributing to the language’s disappearance, it is also being used by some to preserve it. Mr. Civelek, who teaches bird language to children during the summer, uses an application called “Islik Dili Sozlugu,” or whistling language dictionary. “You can lose or break a phone, but as long as you can breathe, you can whistle,” said Mr. Civelek. “It's a communication tool that you can bring with you anywhere.” 【1】Before cellphones, what did Turkish farmers mainly use kus dili to do? A.Talk with wild birds. B.Greet respectable guests. C.Speak with people far away. D.Warn farm animals of risks. 【2】What might be concluded based on the study conducted in Kuskoy? A.The right hemisphere interprets sounds. B.Whistling language isn’t unique to Turkey. C.Brain structures processing language aren’t fixed. D.The left hemisphere helps us understand conversations. 【3】Which of the following can best convey Mr. Civelek’s opinion on technology? A.Misfortunes never come alone. B.Every coin has two sides. C.A good beginning makes a good ending. D.All things are difficult before they are easy. 【4】What is main idea of the text? A.People in Turkey whistle more and talk less. B.You may lose a phone, but never a tradition. C.People in Turkey keep a language of whistles alive. D.Cellphones can connect you to the world, but not a heart. |

Learning to Give Praise to Others Words of praise,when used right,can have powerful positive effects on others. They are free,but they're worth so much to the receiving person. 【1】 Your members didn't follow you because of salaries but for more altruistic(利他的）reasons. Therefore,it is important that you give them the praise that is due for their efforts. 【2】 Don't say,"You look good today."When you could have said,"You look amazing today!"Don't say,"Thanks for your effort."Instead say "I'm so thankful for your being on this project;we couldn't have finished it without you!" Of course,with all that I have mentioned above,be sure that it's coming from your heart.【3】 Don't praise if you don't have a hint of appreciation for the person. Trust me,it will show in your eyes and the other party will feel upset.Insincere praise is flattery(恭维）；you seek to gain something from saying good things about the other person. Besides,praising in public is rather important.【4】When you praise a partner in public,you lift him up and his conduct for everyone in the room to see.Look for opportunities where you can publicly celebrate the hard work of certain people and make them feel they are great. I believe that as you begin using these communication tips and praising people around you,you'll see a change in the atmosphere of your work environment. 【5】 Eventually,you'll find yourself with a more effective team! A.So you need to be sincere in praise. B.This is more so in voluntary organizations. C.People will become happier and smile more. D.It is much more effective than praise in private. E.Remember that measured praise is no praise at all. F.Words aren't always necessary when praising others. G.The best way to teach kids how to praise others is by being an example. |

The cafeteria worker passed me my plate and I looked down. I barely________ anything. All I did was sit there, confused. They called this "Chinese" lunch, so why had I never ________it before?

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。 “Make sure you bring your schoolwork home,” Mother had told Shawn on Friday. Shawn had known what that meant. The ice on the river was no longer safe for his snowmobile, and it would be many weeks before the ice melted enough to cross the river by boat. Shawn was thinking that if he couldn't go to school, maybe he could drive his snowmobile into the mountains. Suddenly, Mother grasped her side with both hands, her face pale. Shawn hurried toward her. “My stomach...” she moaned (呻吟). Shawn helped Mother sit on the floor. Before he could reach the telephone to call for the ambulance or the hovercraft—the fire department’s ice-rescue vehicle—he remembered that last week’s ice storm had cut off the phone lines. “I’ll get you to the hospital, Mother,” Shawn whispered. “Don't worry.” But Shawn was worried. How could he get her to the hospital? The snowmobile wasn't safe. Suddenly, an idea struck him—maybe he could use the boat. “We can’t cross the river, Shawn, “his mother whispered.” The ice is too thin.” But she still let him help her into the boat. Then he remembered that Father always brought a chisel (凿子) and a sledgehammer (长柄大锤) on the ice in the winter. So he found them and placed them next to his mother. Cautiously, Shawn pushed the boat onto the ice. The boat slid more easily than he had expected on the water-covered ice. Shawn pushed and pushed, though his arms soon ached and his legs were sore. He wasn't far from the other side of the river, when he noticed two men drilling a fishing hole next to the shore. Just then, with a loud crack, the front part of the boat broke through the ice. Shawn took a quick step away from the boat, his arms shaking with tiredness. The men were shouting at Shawn, waving a mobile phone, but the wind blew their words away. Shawn was very nervous. Then he remembered—the chisel! He could use it as a lever (杠杆). Shawn reached for the chisel. His mother passed him the chisel and the sledgehammer. Paragraph 1: Working quickly, Shawn soon had the chisel firmly hammered into the ice. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Shawn stared at the white walls of the hospital waiting room. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ |
