Wearable gadgets (可穿戴设备) are usually high-tech equipment, which are so small that people can wear on heads or wrists.

Google Glasses is such kind of wearable gadget. It has attracted the world’s attention since being tested this year. Users can take videos and broadcast live on the Internet. There is also a GPS system in the glasses. So if you get lost you can say “OK,Glasses, where am I?” Then it will tell you where you need to go. It sounds cool, doesn’t it?

Don’t forget Galaxy Gear from Samsung, a Korea company. It is just the tip of the iceberg. This smartwatch looks like a normal watch but much lighter. But Galaxy Gear needs to connect with a Samsung smartphone or tablet (平板电脑). Its short battery life of 25 hours also disappoints (使…失望) users.

With all kinds of wearable gadgets coming into real life, it seems that wearable technology is becoming more modern and popular. Indeed, unlike smartphones, wearable gadgets are more convenient (方便的). Their biggest advantage is that they can do most of the same things as smartphones, yet they are hands-free.

However, wearable gadgets also have their own problems. Some people are not sure whether wearing a gadget is cool. Unless you know about it, you may just think there are many crazy people talking to their wrists.

Perhaps only time will tell how these gadgets will change our lives.

It can be hard to meet people from another culture. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal (信号). Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.

Different cultures emphasize(强调)the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in “small talk”, usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries—like the UK or France—people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants rather than at the office.

Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people just looked at me all the time and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are not needed.

Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share almost the same values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.

People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural (多元文化) environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.

1. In some countries, eating together at restaurants may make it easier for people to .

A. develop closer relationship B. share the same culture

C. get to know each other D. make a successful speech

2.The writer mentions his journey in Thailand to show that .

A. too many words are of no use

B. the English prefer to make long speeches

C. even talk and silence can be culturally different

D. people from Thailand are quiet and shy

3.What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Multicultural Environment B. Cross-Cultural Differences

C. How to Understand Each Other D. How to Build Up a Relationship

We humans live in different parts of the world, but we have the same “mother”. She gives us everything we need in our daily life. She is our Mother Earth.

April 22 is Earth Day. The theme of this year is “Green Cities”.

A green city is a healthy and pleasant place for people to live, according to the United Nations.

A green city can get its energy from renewable (可再生的) sources like solar (太阳能的) and wind power. Also, it is connected by clean public transportation. Moreover, a green city is made up of facilities (设施) that can save energy and reduce waste.

Around the world, many cities and countries have done well to build themselves in a green way.

Chicago is well known for its green roof (屋顶) program. These roofs are covered with plants. The plants get a great amount of rainwater. Later, the water evaporates (蒸发) to help make the air cool and clean. So far, there are about 360 green roofs in Chicago, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency.

Curitiba, Brazil, has great transportation. It opened the world’s first bus rapid transit (BRT) system in 1974. BRT runs on special lanes. This makes sure that buses are on time even in traffic jams. With the help of BRT, the city has the lowest level of air pollution in Brazil. Today, many other countries have copied BRT, including China and Mexico.

Singapore is home to the first zero-energy building in Southeast Asia. Zero energy means a building is able to create more energy than it uses. Zero-energy buildings work with solar panels (板) mainly on roofs. These panels can make electricity which powers the buildings. By 2030, Singapore plans to build 80 percent of its buildings like this.

1.The theme of Earth Day this year is “_______”.

A. Green Roofs B. Green Cities

C. Reducing and Recycling D. Environmental Protection

2.The article mentions that there is BRT in the following countries EXCEPT _______.

A. Brazil B. Singapore C. China D. Mexico

3.From the passage, we learn that in the three cities _______.

A. people are encouraged to grow plants on their roofs

B. special lanes are designed to solve traffic jams

C. people make good use of solar and wind energy

D. people are provided with a pleasant place to live

4.The passage is mainly developed by _______.

A. giving examples B. explaining reasons

C. listing suggestions D. showing different opinions
