We are much happier in our new house because it has a large garden, and you know how enthusiastic we both are about gardening. When we moved in a month ago, Mary wanted to get a dog to keep out burglars. However, we finally decided that it would be cheaper to put an iron grille in front of the door and get a burglar alarm.
Last week, I went to a shop and bought an alarm for just over £200. It consists of a control unit with three smaller units. I put the control unit in the lounge and put the other units in place by the front door, back door and lounge windows.
That night I soon fell asleep because I was confident that no one could get into our house undetected. At about 1:50 a.m. I woke up suddenly and heard the siren. It was like an ambulance driving right through our bedroom. I couldn’t leave the siren on all night. I went downstairs in the dark. When I reached the bottom of the stairs, I switched on the light and looked around. Oh my gosh. The back door was unlocked. I rushed to lock it and it was just at that exact moment that the ‘burglar’ disappeared behind a curtain. Guess what? It was an ordinary house lizard(蜥蜴).Apparently the alarm system had been made for American or European homes in which lizards are never seen. I switched the alarm off and sat down to watch. A few moments later, a lizard ran across a wall, right in front of one of the alarm units.
I won’t bother to finish this story but if you’d like a burglar alarm system free of charge, just let us know.

When I was young, I had an old neighbor named Dr. Gibbs. He didn’t look like any doctor I’d ever known. He never shouted at us for playing in his yard. I remembered him as a neighbor who was nicer than anyone else in the neighborhood. When Dr. Gibbs was happy, he was planting trees. And his life’s goal was to make it a forest.
Dr. Gibbs had some interesting theories about planting. He talked about trees that weren’t watered would grow deep roots in search of water. So he never watered his trees. He planted an oak (橡树) and, instead of watering it every morning, he beat it with the rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree’s attention.
Dr. Gibbs died a couple of years. Every now and then, I walk by his house and look at the trees that he planted twenty-five years ago. They’re very strong now.
I planted a couple of trees a few years later. I watered them regularly and took good care of them. Whenever a cold wind blows, they shake their leaves and branches.
The funny thing about those trees of Dr. Gibbs was that difficulty seemed to help them in ways comfort and ease never could.
1.What was Dr. Gibbs’ life goal?
A. To save more lives. B. To build a forest.
C. To make a lot of money. D. To study plants.
2.One of Dr. Gibbs’ theories about planting was that ______.
A. he often talked to the trees
B. he kicked the trees heavily
C. he never watered the trees
D. he buried the leaves around the roots
3.What does the writer mainly want to tell us?
A. Trees are not as weak as we think.
B. Difficulty is necessary for growth
C. Planting trees is good for the environment.

The kids in this village wear dirty, ragged clothes. They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts(小屋）made of sticks and mud. They have no school. Yet they all can chant the English alphabet（字母表）, and some can make words.
The key to their success: 20 tablet computers(平板电脑) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U.S. group called One Laptop Per Child.
The goal is to find out whether kids using today’s new technology can teach themselves to read in places where no schools or teachers exist. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing the project data say they’re already amazed. “What I think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten,” said Matt Keller, who runs the Ethiopia program.
The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse. The device’s camera was disabled to save memory, yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work. He called himself a lion, a marker of accomplishment in Ethiopia.
With his tablet, Kelbasa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows. Then he spelled words on his own. “Seven months ago he didn’t know any English. That’s unbelievable,” said Keller.
The project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading,” where they can read to learn. It won’t be in Amharic, Ethiopia’s first language, but in English, which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs.
1. What can we infer from Keller’s words in Paragraph 3?
A. They need more time to analyze data.
B. More children are needed for the research.
C. He is confident about the future of the project.
D. The research should be carried out in kindergartens.
2. How does the Ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village?
A. It trains teachers for them.
B. It contributes to their self-study.
C. It helps raise their living standards.
D. It provides funds for building schools.
3.What is the aim of the project?
A. To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs.
B. To make Amharic widely used in the world.
C. To help Ethiopian kids read to learn in English.
D. To assist Ethiopians in learning their first language.
4.It amazed Keller that with the tablet Kelbesa could _______.
A. learn English words quickly.
B. draw pictures of animals.
C. write letters to researchers.
D. make phone calls to his friends.

Want to live longer? Win an Oscar.
A new study says that actors who received the award earn more than larger paych
ecks.
So when 94-year-old Katharine Hepburn once remarked that she was respected internationally “like an old building”, she had no idea that her four Oscars directly influenced her longevity(长寿).
The study says winning actors will live 3.9 years longer than their losing counterparts (对手). Actors who have won more than once, like Hepburn, live up to six years longer than those who were nominated (提名) but never won.
“We found that they died from the same things we all die from—cancer, heart disease, but they fought them a bit longer and diseases came a bit later,” says Dr. Donald Redelmeier, the leading author of the study. Redelmeier says the sense of success and satisfaction makes one’s soul become more full of life.
“We are not saying that you will live longer if you win an Oscar,” explains Redelmeier, “or that people should go out and take acting courses. Our main conclusion is simply that social factors are important.” The study’s implied conclusion, he says, is that doctors should ask about their patients’ personal feelings because mental well-being is related to physical health.
Redelmeier says he got the idea for the study when he watched a glowing Gwyneth Paltrow win an Oscar in 1999 for her role in Shakespeare in Love. Redelmeier says, “She looked more full of life than anyone I had seen.”
“We found, too, those that had multi-nominations and no win had the same life expectancy as those with just a single nomination and no win,” Redelmeier adds.
1.The longevity of Oscar winners mainly has something to do with___________.
A. the big money that was awarded
B. mental factors
C. rich and colorful lives
D. respect from others and better treatment
2.Tom had five Oscar nominations but win no Oscar and Peter had only one nomination and won no Oscar either. We can tell__________.
A. Tom probably will have a longer life than Peter.
B. Peter probably will have a longer life than Tom
C. Both Tom and Peter probably will have the same life expectancy
D. Both Tom and Peter probably will have a long life.
3.According to the passage, we know __________.
A. When Katharine Hepburn was 94, she knew her long life had something to do with her 4 Oscar prizes
B. In general the number of Oscar prizes has nothing to do with a person’s life expectancy.
C. That Gwyneth Paltrow’s full of life made Redelmeier decide to do the study.
D. If you want to live a happy and long 
life, you should take acting courses and win Oscars.
4.What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Most Oscar Winners Live Longer Lives
B. How to Get a Long Life
C. A New Study about Long Lives
D. An Amazing Finding

With the crazy smog going on in China, businessmen are now ready to sell people something to fight against the smog. "Smog economy" has helped certain products against the terrible weather become popular. Now let's see what we have on the list to help us through the terrible weather.
1. Masks
Well, I would say you had better stay indoors to save your lives. PM 2. 5 just increased greatly up t0 750 in Beijing recently. 3M just sold 220,000 masks of a kind. No. 1 best-selling products !
2. Air purifiers(空气净化器)
This kind of products was rarely seen in Chinese households in the past. They have become a must now. I do like these little devices, though they are expensive.
3. Oxygen inhalers(氧气吸人器)
I didn't realize oxygen inhalers also get a cut in the smog economy. As a matter of fact, your oxygen uptake has nothing to do with relieving (减轻) the bad effect of smog. It might even lead to oxygen poisoning when you inhale too much oxygen. So don't get greedy.
4. Salt lamps
Compared to oxygen inhalers, salt lamps are even worse. Some stores are selling the products at several hundred yuan , saying that they can release negative ions(离子), reduce radiation levels and purify the air. The lamps mainly contain sodium chloride. The boiling point of sodium is about 800 degrees centigrade and that of candle is 500. So how on earth can negative ions be released at only 500 degrees?
5. Plants that absorb smog
Yeah, right. Plants Vs Smog. It is scientifically justified (证明) that some plants do absorb pollutants(污染物)from the air. Many plants and calla lilies are among the best-sellers in the market. Even if they don't work, it's good to have some plants in the house anyway.
1.According to the passage, smog _ .
A. encourages people to run away from it
B. keeps people stay indoors day and night
C. gives businessmen chances to make money
D. has nothing to do with the economy
2.Salt lamps are useless, because .
A. its high boiling point may cause a big fire
B. people don't know how to increase its low boiling point
C. it may make the air even worse and dirtier
D. it actually can't give off the negative ions
3. How many products does the author think of as useful ways to fight against the smog?
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
1000 Hours a Year
Like you, all my email goes into my Sent Mailbox, just sitting there if I want to check back at what I said to whom years ago. So what a surprise to see that I send approximately 18, 250 emails each year (roughly 50 a day). Assuming 3 minutes per email, that’s about 1000 hours a year on email alone. I’ve been on email since the early 90s. ___1.___
The answer is both yes and no. Yes, I have been able to keep in touch with family, friends, and colleagues in far-away corners of the planet with ease. _2.__ But while these undoubted benefits are the reasons why I continue to email, it is not without its own cost. Most importantly, as the above analysis shows, email eats my time just as it likely eats yours.
__3._ Each time a message arrives there’s just the chance that it might contain something exciting, something new, something special, a new opportunity. __4.___ That’s just enough to keep me checking my Inbox. But that means perhaps only 10 of the 1000 hours I spent on emails this year were actually wanted.
Frequent email messages will certainly affect our real work. ___5.___ Like other potential addictions we should perhaps attempt to check the email box at certain times of the day, or by creating email-free zones by turning off Wi-Fi. Now I need to think whether I really want to be spending 1000 hours a year on email, at the expense of more valuable activities.
A. Was that time well spent?
B. All this feeds my continued use of email.
C. Do you spend 1000 hours on emails every year?
D. And we all recognize that email has its addictive side.
E. Email uses technology to communicate a digital message over the Internet.
F. Maybe one in 100 emails contain something I really want to know or hear about.
G. Becoming aware of what email is doing to our allocation of time is the first step to re-gaining control.

If you haven’t heard of the expression, you must have been living under a rock for the past year, because “the world is big, and I owe it a visit” was all over the Internet last year.
This expression was chosen as one of 2015’s “popular cyber phrases” in China. When a year comes to an end, many institutions, including the National Language Resources Monitoring and Research Center, People’s Daily Online and CCTV, put together their lists of the Internet’s most used words and phrases.
Most of the selected words and phrases may seem funny and playful, but they can show lifestyle changes. The term “duoshoudang” meaning shopping addicts is a good example. The past year saw record-high online shopping sales in China, the world’s largest e-commerce market. In fact, according to Xinhua, e-commerce (电子商务) is “a new engine” for China’s economic development.
Meanwhile, although phrases like “xiasibaobaole” meaning “you scared the pants off me”may be a fun expression, they reflect the desire for attention now that social networking sites and apps such as weibo and WeChat have become part of people’s lives. “People now have a need to express emotion in bite-size, 140-character bits,” wrote The New York Times.
Here, Teens has picked some phrases from last year’s popular “cyber words” lists. Did you use them often?
The world is big, and I owe it a visit.
Seeing more of the world has become a hot topic for Chinese people in recent years. But never before had someone used it as an excuse to quit a job until Gu Shaoqiang did. The 35-year-old middle school teacher in Henan province struck a chord with (产生共鸣) the nation by posting her 10-word resignation letter: “The world is big, and I owe it a visit.”
The letter’s simplicity, honesty and bravery are what made it one of 2015’s top catchphrases (流行语), wrote Zhang Shixuan, a commentator for People’s Daily.
A pretty face can feed you, yet you choose to make a living off your talent.
Comedian Jia Ling is well known for her funny performances as well as her plump figure. So it came as a great surprise when a photo of her surfaced online, showing how slim and pretty she was in her younger years. In response, true to her humorous nature, Jia wrote this on Sina Weibo: “My story shows that I could totally have lived on my pretty face, yet I chose to rely on my talent.” Since then, the words have become popular when describing good-looking people who are still hardworking.
Other popular “cyber words” include “it’s your charm that matters”, “important things should be stressed three times”, “makers” (创客), “memeda”, a phrase to show cuteness and affection and “xiaoxianrou” referring to young and pretty men.
1.Which is the most popular network buzzword of 2015?
A. It scared me to death.
B. It’s your charm that matters.
C. Important things should be stressed three times.
D. It is not mentioned in the passage.
2.The underlined phrase“ living under a rock” is closest in meaning to ____________.
A. living far from satisfaction
B. living out your fantasy
C. living unexposed to the world
D. living up to others’ expectation
3.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. Gu Shaoqiang resigned because of financial and mental pressure.
B. If you think Jia ling is fat and humorous, you may get the wrong end of the stick.
C. Hot online words basically bring more harm than good to Chinese culture.
D. New words are a reflection of changing technology, politics, morals, and worldviews.
