    Eco-friendly Car Racer

    Can you image a car racer is so eco-friendly that its tyres are made from potatoes, its body is created from hemp (大麻) and rapeseed oil and it runs on fuel made from wheat and sugar beet? The one-seater racing car called Eco One is built by experts from Warwick University, who hope that Eco One will be adopted by the automotive industry. It is sold at $ 51,000.

    Pollution-sensitive Dress

    Don’t be caught outside unaware of pollution levels in the air. The pollution-sensitive EPA Dress by Stephanie Sandstrom notices pollution in the air accordingly. This dress – which is actually quite pretty – looks like you pull it from the bottom of the dirty laundry pile when the air is dirty. It might protect your health by advising you to stay indoors for the day, but it won’t do you any favor if you’re meeting with clients.

    Eco-friendly Umbrella

    Traditional umbrellas come with a fixed surface. Although it is changeable, you cannot replace it easily. This eco-friendly design is more flexible. It is actually only an umbrella skeleton without any surface, which can be folded, so you can put anything such as newspapers, plastic bags or whatever you want to serve as the protecting surface.

    Eco-friendly Moss (苔藓) Carpet

    It is said that walking on fresh grass increases your blood circulation. The Moss Carpet, created by Nguyen La Chanh, looks at getting the grass to your feet. The mat includes ball moss, island moss and forest moss. The humidity (湿度) of the bathroom ensures that it grows well. And that’s why you need to place it there and not anywhere else.

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项.

    Do you know electricity can change the way we taste food? Proving this fact is a revolutionary electric fork designed by Japanese researchers that can make any dish taste salty.

    According to Hiromi Nakamura, a Post Doc Research Fellow at

    Tokyo’s Meiji University, the technology can be very useful for people on

    special diets. Patients with high blood pressure, for instance, can easily go

    on a low-salt diet and still enjoy delicious food. And with the fork, there’s absolutely no risk of over-salting their food. Luckily, the voltage(电压) is so small that there is no risk of electrocution(触电) either.

    The idea of adding electricity to food was first exposed as an experiment at the Computer

    Human Interaction Conference in Austin, Texas, in 2012. Nakamura and her team connected a wire

    to a 9-volt battery and passed it through a straw placed in a cup of sweet lemonade. Volunteers

    reported that the charged lemonade tasted ‘blander’, because the electricity created the taste of salt.

    Nakamura has improved the technology to be able to transfer an electric charge to food through

    forks and chopsticks. “The metallic part of the fork is one electrode（电极）, and the handle is the

    other,” Nakamura explained. “When you take a piece of food with the fork and put it in your mouth,

    you connect the circuit. When you remove the fork from your mouth, you disconnect the circuit. So

    it actually works as a switch.”

    Simon Klose, host of food program Munchies, who recently visited Nakamura to try out the

    fork himself, called this form of ‘food hacking’ one of the greatest eating experiences he’d ever had.

    “When I first heard of electric food, it sounded scary,” he said. He later continued to use a charged

    fork to eat pieces of fried chicken, and found that the saltiness considerably increased as the electricity was connected.

    Nakamura has been eating ‘electric’ food for the past three to four years in an attempt to

    understand it better. “For me, ‘food hacking’ is about strengthening or weakening real food,” she

    said. “It may seem like we’re cooking but we’re actually working on the human senses.”

    1.The electric fork may benefit people who__________.

    A. need to go on a diet B. have high blood pressure

    C. prefer food free of salt D. show interest in tasty food

    2. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us _________.

    A. how the electric fork works

    B. what makes the circuit connected

    C. how the technology was improved

    D. why the electric fork was invented

    3. From the passage, we learn that the electric fork______.

    A. creates virtual taste B. changes people’s diets

    C. helps cure diseases D. replaces salt in cooking

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

    We all use money every day. It is essential because we can pay money for whatever we want.Money is recognized as banknotes and coins.

    However,many years ago people couldn’ t go to the shop and buy what they wanted.They had to get what they wanted through the barter trade(实物交易).It was really difficult,for the barter often depended on coincidence of wants.For example,the seller of grain has to find a buyer who wants to buy grain and who also could offer something the seller wants to buy.And one more example,if a wheat farmer needs what a fruit farmer produces,a direct exchange is impossible because seasonal fruit would spoil before the grain harvest.The solution is to trade fruit for wheat indirectly through a third intermediate commodity(中间的商品),such as cattle,salt,shells,wine.However,commodity money had their disadvantages.For example,cattle,fur,precious stones couldn’ t be cut into smaller pieces and it was inconvenient to keep and transport them.Thus coins were invented.

    The earliest known coins in the western world came from Lydia in about 650 B.C.Greek cities,the Great Persian Empire and Roman Empire quickly adopted the new useful technique of metal currency.And by the end of the 6th century,coinages were common throughout the region.However,coins as well as commodity money had many disadvantages.For instance,coins quickly show wear(磨损) and they usually have small value,so it’ s difficult to count large sums of coins.

    At first,paper money was used in China in about 650 A.D.After then,it was used in Persia and Japan.In Europe,paper money was firstly produced in the Netherlands in the 16th century and in the USA in the 17th century.Paper money is worthless but symbolic.In other words,paper money is just a note.It has a purchasing power because the government announces it as money and citizens accept it universally.

    1.The writer explains the difficulty of barter trade by_______.

    A. telling stories B. using examples

    C. presenting a theory D. making a comparison

    2.What do we know about the early coins?

    A. They usually had large value.

    B. They were first used in Greece.

    C. They still had many disadvantages.

    D. People didn’ t like the metal currency.

    3.Paper money was used earlier in_______.

    A. Rome B. Greece

    C. the USA D. the Netherlands

    4.What is the passage mainly about?

    A. Function of money. B. History of money.

    C. Invention of money. D. Types of money.

    根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。

    Empathy

    Last year，researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy，the ability to understand other people，among college students had dropped sharply over the past 10 years. That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time，the researchers said. 1. .

    Jennifer Freed，a co?director of a teen program，has another explanation.Turn on the TV，and you're showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting，competing，and generally treating one another with no respect. 2. .

    There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples.Humans are socially related by nature. Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human — and having empathy is decisive to those relationships. Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self?respect. 3. .Empathy is also an indication of a good leader.In fact，Freed says，many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers. 4. “Academics are important.But if you don't have emotional （情感的） intelligence，you won't be as successful in work or in your love life，” she says.

    What's the best way to up your EQ （情商）? For starters，let down your guard and really listen to others. 5. .

    To really develop empathy，you'd better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital，join a club or a team that has a diverse membership，have a “sharing circle” with your family，or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.

    A. Today，people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs.

    B. “One doesn't develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking，” Freed says.

    C. Humans learn by example and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.

    D. Empathy is a matter of learning how to understand someone else — both what they think and how they feel.

    E. Good social skills, including empathy, are a kind of “emotional intelligence” that will help you succeed in many areas of life.

    F. Besides，empathy can be a cure for loneliness，sadness，anxiety，and fear.

    G. Everyone is different，and levels of empathy differ from person to person.

    February 4, 2012 saw the take-off of a new rising NBA star-Jeremy Lin.

    Among professional basketball players, Jeremy Lin's background is not typical. He graduated from Harvard University, which sends few players to the NBA, and he is the only Chinese-American NBA player. But when you watch him on the court, there is no doubt that he belongs there. He moves with speed and grace that demonstrate years of faithful practice, which is fueled by a love for basketball.

    Lin's enjoyment of basketball actually began in Taiwan. When Lin's father moved to U.S., his interest in the sport only grew and he passed on this love of basketball to his son, introducing him to the game at the age of five. The young Lin spent much of his youth playing basketball for fun.

    In high school, Lin dreamed of playing in the NBA. When he applied for college, he was not offered a single sports scholarship. However, after his admission to Harvard, he was offered a place on its college basketball team.

    During Lin's time at Harvard, his basketball career began to speed up. He scored 1,482 points, making him one of the highest scorers in Ivy League history.

    When he graduated, no professional teams offered Lin a contract, but he was invited to play in the NBA Summer League. He played well and ended up eagerly signing a contract with the Golden State Warriors.

    At first，playing in professional games filled Lin with excitement. He treasured opportunities to meet players he had been watching on TV for years. But slowly, the excitement wore off and was replaced by anxiety. In a few very difficult months, he was cut by two teams before the New York Knicks picked him up.

    But he had the courage and determination to stick to his dream, so he put himself into hard training to get ready for his opportunity to come. Then his moment arrived on February 4, 2012，on which his excellent performance made him famous overnight. After that, he led the Knicks to their fifth straight victory.

    The Associated Press called Lin "the most surprising story in the NBA". Knicks fans developed the nickname for him "Linsanity" (林来疯）. Time magazine released its 2012 list of the 100 "Most Influential People in the World", Jeremy Lin included.

    No doubt, Lin fever is continuing to spread. If you haven't already caught "Linsanity", get ready.

    1.Which of the following elements is of little help in Lin's success?

    A. his father's influence

    B. his devotion to basketball

    C. his years of hard work

    D. his graduation from Harvard University

    2.What does the phrases "wore off" in seventh paragraph probably mean?

    A. arose B. disappeared C. grew D. remained

    3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

    A. Lin learned to play basketball when he was eight.

    B. Before Lin there was no Chinese-American NBA players.

    C. Lin was excited for professional games and did a good job at the beginning.

    D. Lin is the most outstanding player in NBA.

    4.Which is the right order for Lin's life?

    a. He made an excellent performance on Feb,4.

    b. He was fired by the Golden State Warriors.

    c. He was invited to play in the NBA Summer League.

    d. He graduated from Harvard University.

    e. He became famous overnight.
