One Sunday, Nicholas, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute. Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use. He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him. Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could. By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could - he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept. The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. Having been stuck in the snow for two days, Nicholas was saved. Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls’ survival show Man vs. Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life. When Grylls heard about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive. 【1】What caused Nicholas to get lost at the mountain? A.Having no guides to help. B.Forgetting the way back. C.Terrible weather. D.Poor eyesight. 【2】How did Nicholas keep himself warm? A.He built a snow cave. B.He found a shelter. C.He kept on skiing. D.He made a fire. 【3】Why was Gryll’s show mentioned? A.It was Nicholas’ favorite TV program. B.It taught Nicholas useful knowledge. C.Nicholas shared his story on the show. D.Gryll asked Nicholas to make a TV interview. 【4】Which of the following may best describe Nicholas? A.Calm and brave. B.Responsible and curious. C.Lucky and smart. D.Confident and outgoing. |

You get anxious if there’s no wi-fi in the hotel or mobile phone signal up the mountain. You feel upset if your phone is getting low on power and you secretly worry things will go wrong at work if you’re not there. All these can be called “always on” stress caused by smart phone addiction. For some people, smart phones have liberated them from the nine-to-five work. Flexible working has given them more autonomy in their working lives and enabled them to spend more time with their friends and families. For many others though, smart phones have become cruel mastersin their pockets, never allowing them to turn them off and relax. Pittsburgh-based developer Kevin Holesh was worried about how much he was ignoring his family and friends in favor of his iPhone. So he developed an app — Moment — to monitor his usage. The app enables users to see how much time they’re spending on the device and set up warnings if the usage limits are broken. “Moment’s goal is to promote balance in your life,” his website explains. “Some time on your phone, some time off it enjoying your loving family and friends around you.” Dr. Christine Grant, an occupational psychologist at Coventry University, said, “The effects of this ‘always on’ culture are that your mind is never resting, and you’re not giving your body time to recover, so you’re always stressed. And the more tired and stressed we get, the more mistakes we make. Physical and mental health can suffer.” And as the number of connected smart phones is increasing, so is the amount of data. This is leading to a sort of decisionparalysis (瘫痪) and is creating more stress in the workplace because people have to receive a broader range of data and communications which are often difficult to manage. “It actually makes it more difficult to make decisions and many do less because they’re controlled by it all and feel they can never escape the office,” said Dr. Christine Grant. 【1】What’s the first paragraph mainly about? A. The popularity of smart phones. B. The progress of modern technology. C. The signs of “always on” stress. D. The cause of smart phone addiction. 【2】Kevin Holesh developed Moment to __________. A. research how people use their mobile phones B. help people control their use of mobile phones C. make people better use mobile phones D. increase the fun of using mobile phones 【3】What’s Dr. Christine Grant’s attitude towards “always on” culture? A. Confused. B. Positive. C. Doubtful. D. Critical. 【4】According to the last paragraph, a greater amount of data means __________. A. we will become less productive B. we can make a decision more quickly C. we will be equipped with more knowledge D. we can work more effectively |

But he always dreamed of being able to read. One day, he took his seven-year-old grandson to school. Since he didn't have anything to do that day, he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he stood outside his grandson's classroom and looked in through the window. The kids' teacher, who was an old man in his fifties, entered the classroom when the class began. The teacher was wearing thick glasses. He started teaching. Through watching him, the old man found something interesting, He noticed that the teacher could read nothing without putting his glasses on. As soon as he put on his glasses, he could read very well. “How amazing! said the old man to himself. He waited outside the classroom until the class was over and stopped the teacher. “Excuse me, sir," said the old man to the teacher. “Yes?” said the teacher. “I noticed something amazing. You can't read without the glasses, right?" said the old man. "Yes, that's true. I can read nothing without them," replied the teacher. "But you can read once you put them on, can't you?" asked the old man. "Yes, that's true, too," replied the teacher, wondering why the old man was asking such strange questions.
