【题目】Modern inventions have speeded up people’s loves amazingly. Motor-cars cover a hundred miles in little more than an hour, aircraft cross the world inside a day, while computers operate at lightning speed. Indeed, this love of speed seems never-ending. Every year motor-cars are produced which go even faster and each new computer boats (吹嘘) of saving precious seconds in handling tasks.
All this saves time, but at a price. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so. We get the uncomfortable feeling known as jet-lag; our bodies feel that they have been left behind on another time zone. Again, spending too long at computers results in painful wrists and fingers. Mobile phones also have their dangers, according to some scientist; too much use may transmit harmful radiation into our brains, a consequence we do not like to think about.
However, what do we do with the time we have saved? Certainly not relax, or so it seems. We are so accustomed constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing or even just one thing at a time. Perhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imagination take us into another world.
There was a time when some people’s lives were devoted simply to the cultivation of the land or the care of cattle. No multi-tasking there; their lives went on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pattern. There is much that we might envy about a way of life like this. Yet before we do so, we must think of the hard tasks our ancestor faced: they farmed with bare hands, often lived close to hunger, and had to fashion tools from wood and stone. Modern machinery has freed people from that primitive existence.
【1】The new products become more and more time-saving because ________.
A. our love of speed seems never-ending
B. time is limited
C. the prices are increasingly high
D. the manufactures boast a lot
【2】What does “the days” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Imaginary life.
B. Simple life in the past.
C. Times of inventions.
D. Time for constant activity.
【3】What is the author’s attitude towards the modern technology?
A. Critical B. Objective.
C. Optimistic. D. Negative.
【4】What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The present and past times.
B. Machinery and human beings.
C. Imaginations and inventions.
D. Modern technology and its influence.

【题目】The German company said 5,000 of the "Futurecraft 4D" shoes will be available at retail stores in the fall arid winter.As it is pressed for time,it still plans to start mass producing them next year and expects to have made more than 100,000 pairs by the end of 2018.The company would not disclose where the shoes will be manufactured.
Adidas cooperated with Silicon Valley-based start up Carbon to create the shoe,which uses a new technology called digital light synthesis（合成）.
Although the common 3D printed materials are often rigid（僵硬的）,the new materials are flexible with Silicon Valley-based start up Carbon's technology.
The technology works by using UV lasers to project a pattern for a midsole（鞋底夹层）liquid.It tums the liquid into a solid and the result is a flexible,but more durable midsole.
The technology could make the most of the time and money to produce the shoes in large quantities which may be loved by humans in the future.
"We can produce up to 100 times faster than 3D printing and additive manufacturing processes,"an Adidas spokesperson told CNNTech.

【题目】Humans have daydreamed for thousands of years, and yet, these days, spare moments are filled with using our smartphones and other devices—going through social media, listening to podcasts, responding to emails—leaving us little time to let our minds wander.
【1】 When you’re in a daydreaming state of mind, you can imagine or pretend your own version of events.
“My most creative moments come when my brain is allowed to rest” says Megan King, a designer. But she is addicted to her smart phone. 【2】 According to Nielsen, Americans spend 10.5 hours a day consuming media. And UK residents are close behind at almost 10 hours a day, according to eMarketer.
【3】 This may seem a small change, but its effect, on the way our minds work and on our collective creativity could be serious. 【4】
Over years of studies, researchers have found that our brain has two separate attention systems — an external one and an internal one. The internal attention system, which is activated(激活）during daydreaming, is called the default network(默认网络).
The default network is particularly active when we are thinking about ourselves, thinking about the past, thinking about the future. 【5】
If both systems can’t be active at the same time and we’re spending 10 hours a day in one attention system, it begs the question: what is that doing to our brains — and our ability to come up with creative ideas?
A. Daydreaming is the opposite of our dreams.
B. This extended screen time has made some of us uncomfortable sitting alone with our own thoughts.
C. Daydreaming is how we access our big-picture state of mind.
D. In fact, it could be preventing your ability to come up with fresh, creative ideas.
E. We can’t really have both attention systems active at the same time.
F. People spend too much time on screen suffer from headaches.
G. She's not alone.

【题目】In the early 1980s, one of our neighbors asked my mom if she would make a few gift baskets for her to give as gifts for the holidays. My mom agreed and news of the unique gift baskets my mom was making spread like wildfire throughout the neighborhood. My mom was busy throughout the holiday season, so she asked a friend to help her. When the orders continued after the holiday season for baby gifts, birthday gifts and more, it occurred to them that maybe this job could be turned into a business and they did it.
My mom went into her business because she had creative ideas. She got orders and filled order. But there was no goal and no real plan. In 1991, my mom’s partner got into financial trouble and there was not enough money to support either mom or her partner.
So if you are led by your creativity or enthusiasm, make sure you ask yourself what you purpose to do your business is. If you don’t set goals, how will you know which direction to go in? Do you want to create jobs and growth in the economy? Are you looking for a hobby? You can’t keep scores if you don’t know what game you are playing.
After my mom’s partner quit, she had to abandon her business to support herself. She swore she would run a business again and do it differently the next time. However, there wasn’t a “next time” for her. She passed away just after her 51st birthday. She never had someone tell her how important having a goal was, she never had a chance to be everything she could be.
There are no right or wrong goals, only the ones that matter to you. Set them so that you can make progress and achieve success, whatever they may mean to you.
【1】What did the writer’s mom do after failing in her business?
A. She found a different partner.
B. She celebrated her 51st birthday.
C. She planned to have a second try with different methods.
D. She decided never to run a business again.
【2】What can we infer from the passage?
A. The writer began her business with a set goal.
B. The writer mother was a woman without creativity.
C. The writer’s mother died because of her failure in business.
D. The writer believes having goals in mind ensured one’s success.
【3】How does the writer present his point of view mainly?
A. By providing examples. B. By explaining causes.
C. By making comparisons. D. By listing figures.
