On Sunday a few of us decided to take advantage of the first sunny day we’d have for ages to take a trip down to the coast to visit the penguins again. Last time I went down there was a couple of months ago and it was a dull cold day. Sunday couldn’t have been more different — clear skies and sunshine made it feel like summer, although it was still -25°C.
Six of us drove to the coast. It was the first time we’d been off the base on our own without our field assistant, so it had a slightly different feeling — more like a few friends going to the seaside than an
Antarctic field trip! When we reached Windy Creek, we luckily caught sight of quite a few small flying seabirds, which are seldom seen there. Once on the sea ice we found that some of the more curious penguins had wandered over from the main group to come and check us out. We’d been told that then they were nursing their chicks and they would be more careful and nervous than last time, but that didn’t seem to be the case. We walked across to the main group which were stretched for a couple of miles along the coast. We sat down for some sandwiches and soon found ourselves surrounded by many curious observers. Without any attackers on
land, they were very brave and came within a meter of us to pose for photos.
Before heading back, we spent a few hours on the sea ice watching the penguins and their chicks, which had grown dramatically since our last visit. It was such a nice day.
1.The six people did the following during the trip EXCEPT _____.
A. feed the penguins B. take pictures of the penguins
C. enjoy watching flying seabirds D. watch the young penguins
2.What does the writer mean by saying “but that didn’t seem to be the case” in the third paragraph?
A. They were told a lie. B. A wrong decision was made.
C. The truth was the opposite. D. They didn’t believe what they were told.
3.When did the trip most probably happen?
A. On a dull Sunday. B. On a warm Sunday.
C. On a summer Sunday. D. On a winter Sunday.

Staring lovingly at your reflection in the mirror gets old, especially if it's not a magical one that tells you you're the fairest of them all. But what if all that time you already spend in front of a mirror could actually make you the most beautiful person in the land? Many smart mirrors already make this promise, but HiMirror is the first one you can actually buy, and it costs $ 189. The secret comes in the form of a camera that takes pictures of your natural appearance to analyze your complexion (面色), before offering you tips on how to get better skin. I tried it out recently and was impressed by how many things it could do.
The 5. 5-pound mirror houses a 14-inch LCD screen and has a camera sitting in the middle of a ring flash, which helps light your face for better images. HiMirror takes a picture of your face every day to analyze your wrinkles, dark spots, dark circles and red spots. The idea is to track how your skin changes over time, and flag your so-called problems so you can take early measures to improve upon your skin and achieve your beauty goals. HiMirror pairs with an IOS or Android app so you can track your complexion on the go.
In addition, HiMirror will play tutorial videos on proper skin-care techniques, stream music from Spotify and show you the weather forecast and UV index for the day. You can also tell it the types of beauty products you use, so it can determine whether they've been effective in treating your target areas. Adding a product to what the company calls your "Beauty Box" simply requires holding up its bar code to the camera and scanning it. It's not clear yet how many brands and products this feature supports, but most big brands are recognized.
1.How does HiMirror work?
A. By making you the most beautiful person in the world.
B. By introducing some specialists to give you some help.
C. By recommending the types of beauty products to you.
D. By taking photos of your face to analyze your complexion
2.HiMirror tracks complexion with the help of____ .
A. a "Beauty Box" B. music from Spotify

3.The last paragraph is mainly to tell us

C. when HiMirror goes on the market D. the inspiration of designing HiMirror
4.What can be the best title for the text7
A. A magic mirror to make you beautiful
B. Some tips about using a smart mirror
C. A magic mirror to go on the market
D. Some reactions of using a smart mirror
