The Lantern Festival falls on the 15th of the first month of the lunar calendar(阴历).This day is always the first full moon in the new year. Ancient people also called it Shangyuan Festival. Celebrations and traditions on this day began from the Han Dynasty(朝代)and became popular in the Tang Dynasty.
Watching the red lanterns is one of the main traditions. Lanterns of different shapes and sizes are usually put on trees, or along river banks on show.

An 11-year-old blind girl is proud of walking alone every day to and from school. Why? She has to walk past so many barriers (障碍物) in her way. The girl's home is near the school, yet her mother follows her without letting her know.
The case of the girl shows the barrier-free(障碍物) facilities (设施) are not enough in her city. Many other cities are short of barrier-free facilities as well. There's no well-designed path for the blind. In fact. in the early 2000s, some cities started to build barrier-free facilities for disabled people. However, almost 20 years later, only a few large cities have had facilities of high quality.
It's common that sidewalks are taken up with barriers. Few workers are sent to move them away, so it's dangerous for the blind to walk on them. Also, some other barrier-free facilities are badly destroyed(毁坏). Only a few workers are assigned (分配) to do the task of repairing the broken ones.
Some ideas can make a difference — build more barrier-free facilities, employ(雇用) more of workers and require money. In a word, more money is needed to carry on with the work. It’s our duty to make life easy for disabled people, so that they can live without barriers some day.

Introduction | A blind girl feels proud that she walks to and from school by 1. every day. To be sure of her daughter safe, the mother always follows her and keeps it 2.. |

While the start of a new school year is always exciting, this year was even more so for some students at White Cloud Primary School. They became the world's first kids to be taught by an electronic teacher. This electronic teacher is not a human-like robot walking around the classroom Instead, he is a computer-created head that appears, when needed, on students computer or phone screens. His name is Bill.
Created by technology company Smart Machines, Bill is able to show human-like behavior. He is designed to teach a special program about environmental-friendly power created by the sun and wind. This program, started in 2005, used to be taught by human teachers.
Just like human teachers, Bill is able to immediately respond to the students' questions and opinions about the topic. Thanks to computer cameras, he is also able to see and react to students physical actions. For example, if a student smiles at Bill, he responds by smiling back. This two-way exchange helps get the students' attention. More importantly, it allows the program developers to improve Bills behavior and knowledge base when needed.
The program has been a great success, according to Smart Machines spokesman Robert Frost Frost says, “What is interesting to me is the children's reaction to Bill. He really captures their attention.” Frost thinks kids don't find the experience of being taught by smart machines as strange as older people because they have grown up in a time of computers and smart phones.
It is doubtful, however, that human educators will lose their jobs to Bill any time soon. For one,his talking head's knowledge base is not large. More importantly, even the smartest computer programs can't guess and react to all the unexpected situations that educators face daily. Bill’s future might be as a “personal tutor”, providing kids with one-on-one help for different subjects and topics.
1.What is Bill?
A. A human-like robot
B. A kind of computer game
C. A computer recording tool
D. A computer-created talking head
2.How does the two-way exchange help the program developers?
A. It lets them correct students' mistakes
B. It allows Bill to respond more quickly
C. It helps them know how to improve Bill
D. It helps them study students' body language
3.The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 4 refers to
A. kids
B. older people
C. smart machines
D. program developers
4.What is Bill NOT good at doing?
A. Attracting students' attention
B. Understanding body language
C. Responding to students' questions
D. Dealing with unexpected situations
5.How might Bill be used in the future according to the last paragraph?
A. To work as human classroom teachers
B. To encourage students' interest in computers
C. To give students personal help with different subjects
D. To watch over the behavior of the students in the classroom
