A T-shirt that constantly monitors the heart’s activity and detects abnormalities could help protect people against stroke. The T-shirt, which can be washed up to 35 times before it needs replacing, has been developed to improve the detection of dangerous heart conditions like atrial fibrillation( 心房颤动), which causes an irregular heart rhythm and raises the risk of stroke.
At least one million people in Britain are known to have this condition; however, it’s estimated that at least another 500,000 have it but haven’t yet been diagnosed because they have no obvious symptoms. Some will have symptoms such as chest pain, dizziness and fatigue; but a large number of people have no idea they’re ill until they suffer a stroke.
Detecting atrial fibrillation involves carrying out an ECG( 心 电 图 ). Conventional ECGs are done in a hospital and involve highly trained teams of staff attaching up to 24 separate electrodes(电极) to different parts of the body to measure electrical signals. But most patients experience abnormal rhythms only intermittently(间歇地). This means the chance of picking them up during a short hospital check is slim.
Doctors sometimes issue patients with a device called a Holter monitor to wear under their clothes to try to pick up cardiac( 心脏的) problems. This is an electronic box which clips onto your waistband and is connected to a series of electrodes worn on the upper part of your body. But the box itself is quite bulky, hard to hide beneath clothing and involves a dozen or more wires being attached to the patient’s chest.
The Cardioskin T-shirt, which is made from cotton, could be a much more convenient alternative and can be worn 24 hours a day — meaning it is more likely to pick up any abnormal rhythms in the patient’s heart. It has 15 tiny electrodes woven into the material which are strategically placed around the chest area to track the electrical signals from the heart as they travel across the main part of your body.
The electrodes are powered by a battery which can be removed easily when you need to wash the T- shirt and feed results to a microchip which then sends them out wirelessly to an app. This converts( 转换) the data into an easy-to-read chart showing if the heart rate is abnormal. The results are shared with the patient’s doctor so they can check the patient’s heart without having to call them into the hospital.
Martin Cowie, a professor of cardiology at Imperial College London, said, “Cardioskin could be an important development for cardiologists.”
【1】How many British people are having dangerous heart conditions according to the text?
A. Less than 0.5 million. B. Less than 1 million.
C. At least 1.5 million. D. At least 2 million.
【2】What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A. The difficulty in detecting atrial fibrillation.
B. The benefit of detecting atrial fibrillation.
C. The process of detecting atrial fibrillation.
D. The future of detecting atrial fibrillation.
【3】Why did the author mention a Holter monitor in the text?
A. To show how convenient the Cardioskin T-shirt is.
B. To introduce a way to check the patient’s heart.
C. To encourage people to care about their health.
D. To explain why doctors like using the device.
【4】What can we learn about the Cardioskin T-shirt?
A. It has a battery that can be charged easily and quickly.
B. It can be worn a month without being washed.
C. It has electrodes placed all over the T-shirt.
D. It can speed up the process of diagnosis.

Four years ago your friends congratulated you and your father talked big continuously. Four years ago you walked among the gothic towers and weathered traditions that sew our community together. But what’s next, will I make friends, or I will measure up? And maybe you quietly wondered why a place like Yale, a place that sparked the drive of presidents, a place that raised the world-famous scholars, a place that trained Pulitzer Prize winners, would ever want you? I hope you had these questions because otherwise I might have embarrassed myself. I admit I asked all of these and more.
I took an unconventional path to Yale. Five years ago I was working the evening shift at a clothing store in the suburbs of Virginia. My family had moved every year for the past five years and our finances were so consumed that retirement was not a possibility. Worse yet, my son was a junior at an Ivy League college in New Jersey and hearing about his privileged friends often reminded me of all the things I wanted to give him but couldn’t.
When I told him this he relied,“If you really want to spoil me, spoil yourself. ”Then he took my hands and told me I had a brilliant mind and deserved better than everything I had ever known.
That summer I started community college while working full-time. Education was my second chance. I awoke my curiosity, vitality( 活力) and dignity that I never knew I could feel. When I read Eliot, Miller and Morrison, it was as if I were the first person to have ever read them, as if they were secret insights into the human soul and situations and I knew I couldn’t stop.
Walking among these gothic towers, among these traditions, and among this brilliant, vibrant and unapologetically eclectic Class of 2014 has been inspiring. Whether debating issues in class, or chatting over coffee, I have enjoyed, learned and loved every moment I have shared with you. You have made me a better person and I only hoped I have helped in some way to do the same for you.
And yet even now this is dreamlike. Four years ago I was convinced no one would want me, I wouldn’t measure up and as far as knowing what was next, I supposed I had resigned myself to more of the same. But I’ve come to learn that nothing great can really be accomplished without a healthy dose of terror. No one ever wrote epic(史诗般的) poems, built monuments or told bedtime stories about people who played it safe.
I was terrified when I came to Yale. A big part of me thought I wasn’t good enough. But a big part of life is ignoring the naysayers(反对者) especially the one inside you. Most people are stopped from doing great things by no one but themselves. I learned to tell myself to shut up. Sometimes in the mirror in the morning and others times in the dark before I went to bed. I came to realize once I could overcome my own fear I could overcome just about anything. If you haven’t felt this yet I recommended it: it’s the greatest joy you’ll ever know.
You’ve likely all met your own fear and misgivings(担忧、害怕). I charge you to tell that voice to shut up when necessary because in the end your greatness will not be about IQ but about the sincerity of your ambitions, the toughness of your character and your unwillingness to compromise in the face of difficulty, fear and uncertainty.
And should someone tell you that it can’t be done, or you’re not good enough or it’s not worth the trouble? Should others ask you to take the safe route, or stick to the path of least resistance? Should people say it’s too late or your dreams are impractical? Look them in the eye, laugh a little and let them know “Nothing is impossible”.
【1】By saying “spoil yourself” in Paragraph 3, the author’s son meant that .
A. the author sacrificed a lot for the family
B. the author loved her son and spoiled him
C. the author didn’t deserve any help
D. the author had an excellent mind
【2】What did the author realize after entering the college?
A. She was familiar with Eliot and Miller.
B. Social practice was better than knowledge .
C. She had few moments to share with others.
D. Certain terror helped with achievements.
【3】What does the phrase “the greatest joy” in Paragraph 7 refer to?
A. The joy of realizing your own aims
B. The joy of knowing your own IQ.
C. The joy of overcoming your own fear.
D. The joy of finding your own advantages.
【4】After reading the passage, you are most probably .
A. worried B. encouraged
C. relaxed D. astonished

Fear of missing out
It’s Friday night. While many of your friends may celebrate by going to the movies or checking out a restaurant that’s just opened, you’ve decided to spend this highly cherished night of the week by yourself. The night is yours to enjoy. If you think this sounds relaxing, you’re not alone. At least for a little while until you start wondering if you’ve made the right choice. A doubt begins sinking in as you imagine the fun your friends are having in your absence. Suddenly, the quiet evening you planned for yourself begins to lose its initial appeal, and you find your excitement quickly turns to anxiety.
Fear of missing out, or FOMO, is a common feeling. A recent study defined FOMO as “the uneasy and sometimes all-consuming feeling that you’re missing out — your peers are doing or in possession of more or something better than you.
Fear of missing out often develops as a result of deeper unhappiness. Research has found that those with low levels of general life satisfaction are more likely to experience FOMO. Further worsening the all- too-common feeling is the rise of social media use. Active users of social media have a higher probability of comparing their achievements with others’. Rather than finding happiness through their own experiences, they begin worrying that theirs aren’t objectively better than anyone else’s.
The consequences of FOMO are significant and far-reaching. One study conducted with first-year university students found that fear of missing out was associated with fatigue( 疲 劳 ), stress, and sleep problems. Furthermore, in a 2018 study of 1,045 Americans aged 18-34, nearly 40% of participants admitted going into debt just to keep up with their friends’ lifestyles, often through increased spending on food, travel, clothes, and electronics.
So how can you overcome the fear? Begin with gratitude. By reflecting on what you already have, you’re less likely to put valuable mental energy in worrying about what you don’t. Another alternative?
Embrace(欣然接受) JOMO, or the joy of missing out. JOMO allows you to shift your focus to what you really want at any given moment, without feeling concerned about what those around you may be doing. So, turn off your phones and tablets, and engage in something you enjoy while resisting the urge to upload and share it. While this may take practice and perseverance(坚持不懈), the results are well worth the effort.
By embracing the joy of missing out, you make room for all the benefits that come from spending time with yourself and the inner wholeness you contain; you create space to keep up with the things you wish you had more time for — gardening, reading, resting, exercising, cooking, learning, or simply being; and you see yourself in new ways and unearth the talents, fears, joys and quirks that lie beneath the surface.

A new study’s findings warn that smart phones are seriously messing with your quality of life.
The study looked at the responses of 256 smart phone users. Researchers found that 13 percent of participants were addicted to their smart phones, spending 3.6 hours per day on the devices. Social networking sites were the No. 1 time wasters with 87 percent of users, while instant messaging apps at 52 percent and news apps at 51 percent.
Almost 25 percent of the people admitted that their smart phones caused “communication issues” in their real lives, including less conversation with family and friends. What’s worse, the majority of users said “their smart phone use caused distraction(精神不集中) from many aspects of their lives, including employment, hobbies and studies.”
“People need to know the potential addictive properties( 性质) of mobile phones,” a researcher said. “There should be a warning before people purchase them or before they download an app. If you’re downloading a game, there should be a warning saying that you could end up playing this for hours and you have other responsibilities that could be ignored.”
