【题目】 Superb Performance From Affordable Digital Hearing Aid

Chicago Dr. Cherukuri has invented a medical-grade, ALL-DIGITALaffordable hearing aid.

He knew that untreated hearing loss could lead to depression, social isolation, anxiety, and symptoms consistent with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. In his practice he knew that many of his patients would benefit from new digital hearing aids but many couldn’t afford the expense, which is not generally covered by Medicare and most private health insurance policies.

Same Technology as $ 3,500 Hearing Aids

He evaluated all the high-priced digital hearing aids on the market and then created his own affordable version-called MD Hearing Aid AIR for its virtually invisible, light weight appearance. This doctor-designed digital hearing aid delivers clear sound all day long and the soft flexible ear domes are so comfortable that you won’t realize you are wearing them.

This new digital hearing aid is packed with the features of its $3,500 competitors at a small part of the cost. Now most people with hearing loss are able to enjoy crystal clear, natural sound-in a crowd, on the phone, in the wind --without “whistling” and annoying background noise.

Try it at Home with a 45-Day Risk-Free Trial

Of course, hearing is believing, and we invite you to try it for yourself with our RISK-FREE 45-day home trial. If you are not completely satisfied, simply return it within that time period for a full refund of your purchase price.

【题目】 Have you ever dreamed of meeting top scientists in person? If so, what would you want to ask them? For Tan Fanglin, a 15-year-old girl from No.2 High School of East China Normal University in Shanghai, her dream of meeting top scientists has already come true.

In October, she attended the World Laureates Forum(论坛)for a second time. Tan was by far the youngest participant among the scientists invited to be at the meeting of the world's sharpest minds. Her discovery about the relationship between the Fibonacci sequence(菲波那契数列)and Bézout numbers has won her many prizes in youth innovation competitions. This finding has been praised by the famous Canadian mathematician, Professor Rankin. According to Guangming Daily, Rankin has been studying the same theme for five years but with no conclusions.

From a very young age, Tan has always been fascinated by mathematics. This is largely because of the influence of her father, who teaches mathematics in University. But she had not participated in any Mathematics Olympiad exams before. According to Xu Jun, Tan's head teacher from her middle and high school, she doesn't take after-school classes or too many extra exercises either. Her mastering of Further Mathematics and her good grades in school are thanks to the right study method.

Attending this forum enabled Tan to get more inspiration from top scientists. She asked Professor Miesenbock, the 2019 Warren Alpert Foundation Prize winner, what he considered were the best personal qualities for conducting scientific research. Miesenbock encouraged her not to lose her passion and love for what she does. He stressed that people all knew that even Thomas Edison went through hundreds of unsuccessful attempts before finally inventing the light bulb. Tan has met many barriers in her research and often feels upset. The words made Tan feel inspired. "I will keep my curiosity and interests in mathematics and overcome any obstacles(障碍)in my research," she told Chinese Business View.

1What does the underlined word "fascinated" in the third paragraph mean?

A.threatenedB.refused

C.discoveredD.attracted

2What do we know about Tan Fanglin?

A.Tan has realized her dream of meeting top scientists.

B.Tan is one of the youngest participants in the World Laureates Forum.

C.When she was youngshe took part in many Mathematics Olympiad exams.

D.Tan's discovery has achieved a breakthrough after studying the theme for 5 years.

3What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A.Tan has seldom met obstacles in her research.

B.Tan often feels undefeated when meeting barriers.

C.Inspired by Miesenbock, Tan is determined to overcome difficulties in research.

D.Tan has the best personal qualities for conducting scientific research in Miesenbock's eyes.

4What's the best title for the passage?

A.Top Minds Inspire Student.

B.Failure is the Mother of Success.

C.Loving What You Do, a Way to Success.

D.The Elder One Grows, the More He Gets.

【题目】I began cycling in 2004 when I was a poor student. It was dangerous, sure, but cycling is the fastest, cheapest point-to-point form of transport in Melbourne. I own a car now, but that’s just for transporting the baby or groceries.

I hate driving. So it’s been quite encouraging watching the growth in cyclist numbers over the past decade. It is said that over 10,000 cyclists enter the CBD (Central Business District) each day, taking pressure off public transport. But as more people take to cycling as a way of transport, the number of cyclists seriously injured or killed keeps increasing. And that is a sign that our infrastructure (基础设施) is still not good enough.

Melbourne was once a dream for cyclists--flat, long, wide roads, with plenty of paths along rivers. Now, cycling can be deadly, with roads taken up by cars. I have a friend who broke her back and was lucky to escape death and others with broken bones. In my time riding, I’ve been forced off the road by a truck, cut off by four-wheel drives, and told to get off the road. Drivers are a particularly rude to cyclists. And that’s a sign of exactly one thing: inadequate infrastructure.

We shouldn’t need to be taught how to coexist in the same narrow space. Drivers and cyclists should be kept apart. Designing bike paths so riders are channelled between moving cars and parked cars is deadly. All it takes is one daydreaming driver to fling open the door and you are gone. That’s what happened to the young university student James.

This year, there are to be new cycling lanes (车道) built on Glen Road, where James died in 2010. But these lanes are not safe. Cyclists must still pass between two rows of cars.

1What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. Some people hating driving.

B. More cyclists having accidents.

C. More people choosing to cycle.

D. Distracted driving happening a lot.

2What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?

A. Many people are bad at cycling.

B. There are many cars in Melbourne.

C. It’s dangerous to cycle in Melbourne.

D. Melbourne was once very beautiful.

3Which was the major cause of James’ death according to the author?

A. Cross’ carelessness.

B. A driver’s mistake.

C. Unsafe bike paths.

D. An outdated legal system.

4What is the purpose of the text?

A. To stress the necessity of safe bike paths.

B. To encourage readers to cycle.

C. To criticize rude driving behavior.

D. To tell a personal story.
