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。

We’ve been covering standing desks for a long time now because experts agree that sitting all day is killing us.We want to be productive while also keeping our bodies healthy.Over the years,there have been several solutions to this from fixed standing desks to adjustable ones,portable desks to ones that change into shelves.

However, the most high tech and elegant solution has to be this new smart desk called The Stir Kinetic Desk.The desk learns your daily behaviors and moves between a sitting and standing height regularly throughout the day to keep you moving without interrupting your work flow.

You can program specific sitting and standing intervals or let the desk set the schedule.If you tend to sit while returning emails in the morning,but always want to stand during that afternoon conference call,the desk will learn those regular habits and adjust the schedule to fit them. Of course,the desk can always be manually lowered or raised by using the touch screen on the lower left comer of the desk.

When switching positions,the desk gently dips and rises to let you know that a change is coming up.If you’re not ready to switch positions at that time,you can tap the touchscreen to stay sitting or standing for a while longer.

The built.in touchscreen also keeps track of your daily sitting and standing times and tells you how many calories you’ve burned.You can even set goals for how long or often you want to stand.The desk also works with fitness devices like the FitBit to track your movements.

All of that smart tech doesn’t come cheap though.The M1 desk,which is the everyday model,runs a steep $2,990,while the more executive model with added features,the F1,goes for$4,190.

While expensive,it’s worth thinking of how much time we spend at our desks.Much like a good mattress(床垫),a good desk that works with you is worth the investment.Hopefully in a few years these smart,integrated desks will be more common and less expensive.

1.The Stir Kinetic Desk has been designed to_______.

A.help users with their work

B.keep users moving all the time

C.get users to exercise while working

D.remind users of their working schedule

2.Which is the feature of the touchscreen of the desk?

A.It can tell users when to change positions.

B.It can track users’changes of positions.

C.It can keep users in a fixed position.

D.It can detect users’health condition.

3.Which of the following can best describe the desk?

A.Productive but challenging.

B.Convenient but unaffordable.

C.Complex and impractical.

D.Multi-functional and intelligent.

4.What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph?

A.To spend money on such a desk is rewarding.

B.We should get such a desk as soon as possible.

C.It won’t be long before the desk is widely used.

D.Desks play a very important role in our daily life.

How to live life to the fullest

“Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re going to get.” But for those who take critical decisions, life can be different. How true that is! Stare life in the face as you experience it like a roller coaster ride. 1.Life is made up of choices and decision-making is critical as each choice has both consequences and benefits. Please weigh the latter and always choose life. Always ask what you can learn and how you can move forward, and stop yourself from blaming other people if things aren’t the way you would like them to be.

Seize the day. 2.Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery but today is a gift—that’s why it’s called the present. Life presents us with a lifetime of opportunities, but the opportunities of a lifetime are got when right choices are followed. Be present to enjoy the moment. Each day is a fresh start with choices just waiting to be explored, so what are you waiting for?

3.This is a great way to live life. It means accepting your present the way it is, and offering no resistance to it. However, it does not mean not trying to change it. It means being truly yourself, accepting the present around you, then trying to change it. Often ask yourself: “Has my resistance helped me in any way?” Remember: “Life goes on.”

Accept yourself. Don’t judge yourself. This is the very first step you must take if you really want to live life to the fullest. Why? Because if you’re judging yourself or thinking part of you is wrong, you’ll limit yourself.4.

5.No matter what the situation you find yourself in ,always be focused on what you can be learning from it, how you can be growing, and what you can be taking away from it ,so that you can respond to similar situations more effectively in the future.

A. Always be learning.

B. Fully accept the present.

C. Go on enjoying your life.

D. Show a positive attitude.

E. Live each day as if it’s your last day.

F. And if you limit yourself, you can’t live life to the fullest.

G. The meaning of your life is something you create day after day with your own actions and thoughts.

Picture the scene: You come home after work feeling too exhausted to cook –only to find a delicious meal worthy of a Michelin-starred restaurant waiting for you. It sounds like a fantasy, but it could be about to come true thanks to a robot chef developed by British scientists.

Those scientists have come up with a set of robotic arms so smart that they are capable of cooking meals all by themselves. The device will be sold from as early as 2017 as part of a purpose-built high-tech kitchen.

Scientists at Moley Robotics spent almost 18 years developing the hands. According to its creators, the arms can chop, stir, whisk and baste well enough to recreate almost anything you would care to eat, whether it is a simple home-cooked supper, or a complicated creation designed by a world-class chef. The hands move a little slowly, hovering strangely above the work surface whenever they are not busy, but they imitate human movements closely enough that they can do things such as wiping a spoon on the edge of a pan to prevent drips.

Mr. Oleynik, who is leading the project, said, “All the things which are possible with the hand are possible here. There is no limitation. A lot of people want to go to Michelin-starred restaurants, but they are quite expensive and may be quite far from the home. This is an opportunity for people to enjoy very good food, and for a reasonable price. ”

The only cuisine that is off the robot’s menu at the moment is sushi, which requires extremely steady pressure and nimble fingers to make, but the team plan to conquer that as well by the time it goes on sale.

1.People go to Michelin-starred restaurants in order to______.

A. appreciate car tires. B. escape from work

C. see the new robot chefs D. enjoy delicious meals

2.What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. British scientists B. Household wives

C. Cooks at restaurants D. The robot chef’s arms

3.Which kind of food CAN’T the robot chef cook at present?

A. Sushi B. Beef C. Bread D. Sandwich

4.What can we infer from the passage?

A. Hands of a robot chef can perform exactly like a cook.

B. It is uncertain when the robot can cook all kinds of food.

C. Michelin-starred restaurants are suitable for many people.

D. Robot chefs are available at shopping malls.

An emperor was almost eighty years old and knew it was time to choose his successor(接班人). Instead of choosing one of his children, he decided on something different. He called all of the young people in the kingdom together one day. He said, “It is time for me to choose the next emperor. I have decided to choose one of you.”

The kids were shocked! But the emperor continued, “I am going to give each one of you a seed today. One special seed. I want you to plant it and come back one year later with what you have grown from this seed. I will then judge the plants, and the one I choose will be the next emperor!”

One boy named Ling received a seed like the others. He went home and planted the seed in a pot, watering it carefully. Every day he would water it and watch to see if it had grown. After about three weeks, some of the other youths began to talk about their plants that were beginning to grow. Ling kept checking his seed, but nothing ever grew.

A year finally went by and all the youths brought their plants to the emperor. Ling thought he should be honest about what had happened. So he took his empty pot to the palace. When Ling arrived, he was amazed at the plants grown by other youths. They were beautiful, in all shapes and sizes.
