Crossing Texas and Mexico, the Big Bend region is high in biodiversity(ÉúÎïµÄ¶àÑùÐÔ). It¡¯s a place so untamed that if something doesn¡¯t bite, stick, or sting, it¡¯s probably a rock.
You know you have arrived in the heart of the Chihuahuan Desert when it feels as if you have fallen off the edge of the earth and into the rabbit hole. Nothing is as it appears. Moths (Öû³æ) are the size of birds. Are those twin pillars (Öù) of black rock (a landmark known as Mule Ear Peaks) ten miles (16 kilometers) away or fifty (80 kilometers)? Visibility (Äܼû¶È) reaches more than a hundred miles on a clear day, and since there are few roads or buildings to use as milestones, distance is difficult to judge.
This is a place where water runs uphill, where rainbows have to wait for rain. The line between myth (Ðé¹¹µÄ¹ÊÊÂ) and reality is unclear. Stare long enough at the Chisos Mountains or the Sierra del Carmen, the two mountain ranges, known as sky islands, which lie on the land, and they rise and float above the plain.
The vast Chihuahuan Desert is a land of no people. There is always the chance you¡¯ll die of thirst. The ¡°You Can Die¡±possibilities are endless, and keep some visitors ¡ª 350,000 a year to Big Bend National Park, built in 1944 ¡ª from coming back. Those who do return are left to think of the remarkable courage of the brave few who have managed to survive in this terrible environment.
The underlined word¡°untamed¡±in Paragraph 1 means¡°________¡±.
A. untouched B. wild C. unchanged D. fresh
Why do the twin pillars of black rock seem ten or fifty miles away?
A. They were put so far away.
B. They lie across the Chihuahuan Desert.
C. It is difficult to judge the distance, with few milestones.
D. One lies in the Chisos Mountains, the other in the Sierra del Carmen.
How many years are there since the Big Bend National Park was built?
A. 350,000 years. B. 350 years. C. 66 years. D. 44 years.
What is the passage mainly about?
A. The natural wonders of the Chihuahuan Desert.
B. Everything you see is not what it seems in the Chihuahuan Desert.
C. The terrible environment of deserts in Texas and Mexico.
D. A special place where none who go can return.
What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. There are all kinds of living things in the Chihuahuan Desert.
B. No people live in the Big Bend region.
C. Nothing is as it appears in the Big Bend region.
D. Traveling in the Big Bend region is dangerous.

Back those photos up
The images were striking. Homes on the East Coast were washed away by Superstorm Sandy. People were in tears, picking up faded photographs, among their only remaining possessions.
If that doesn¡¯t move you to get serious about safekeeping your lifetime of memories, what will? The digital age offers tools never imaginable before¡ªincluding one-click access to a lifetime of family photos.
Here is a brochure on how to back up (´æ) your photos and save them online, where they can live forever and be accessible in good times and bad.
Scanning
The first step for those old photos is to scan them and save them to a digital format. Most printers come with scanners these days, so that¡¯s an easy but extremely time-consuming step.
Storing the photos
With your scans in place, import the photos into your computer, and back them up.
You could make multiple copies of the disks and spread them to loved ones. Or you could choose external(Íâ½ÓµÄ) hard drives or USB thumb drive, and add your photo and video collection from your computer.
Online backup
If you need lots of space, look at a pure online backup service, Caronite.
Caronite backs up 300 million files daily. Once you sign up, it starts to pick up everything you have on your hard drive. But photo collection on your computer¡¯s main hard drive charges for $59 a year.
Cloud Storage
For folks who don¡¯t need automatic backup, but instead want to take a more active approach, Dropbox, Google Drive and Microsoft¡¯s SkyDrive let you store files online by yourself, share and instantly access them. All offer free options¡ª2GB of free storage for Dropbox, 5GB for Google and 7GB for SkyDrive. But if you want more, you need to pay.
Bottom Line
The hard drive or flash drive is the cheapest and easiest. But drives can fail. Online services are more expensive, but more secure. With more of us switching back and forth between our computers, such services are the best way to get access to our data from wherever we are.

It turns out that being voted ¡°Most likely to succeed¡± in high school might actually be a good predictor of one¡¯s financial and educational success in the future.
According to a University of Illinois professor who studies the sociology of education, high school sophomores who were rated by their teachers as having good social skills and work habits, and who participated in extracurricular activities in high school, made more money and completed higher levels of education 10 years later than their classmates who had similar standardized test scores but were less socially adroit(ÊìÁ·µÄ)and participated in fewer extracurricular activities.
Christy Lleras, a professor of human and community development, says that ¡°soft skills¡± such as sociability, punctuality, conscientiousness(¸ºÔðÈÎ) and an ability to get along well with others, along with participation in extracurricular activities, are better predictors of earnings and higher educational achievement later in life than having good grades and high standardized test scores.
¡°That¡¯s not tosay that academic achiecement in high school doesn¡¯t matter¡ªit does,¡±Lleras said. ¡°But if we only look at standardized test scores, we¡¯re only considering part of the equation for success as an adult in a global marketplace. Academic achievement is part of the story, but it¡¯s not the whole story. You¡¯ve got to have the social skills and work habits to back those achievements up.¡±
With the generational shift from a manufacturing-hased economy to a service-and-information-based one, employers value workers who can not only boast about their GPAs and SAT scores, but are also able to get along well with the public and co-workers, Lleras.
¡°I think we¡¯ve known this intuitively for a long time that employers are looking for something beyond cognitive (ÈÏÖªµÄ)skills¡± Lleras said. ¡°Leadership now is not an individual thing , it¡¯s how well you get along in a team and get people organized.¡±
1. Which of the following is NOT considered as a ¡°soft skill¡±?
A.Being able to make others at ease in a group.
B Being able to get to an appointment on time.
CAlways ticking to one¡¯s own opinion.
D Being willing to take responsibility.
2.. Now employers would prfe to hire someone who ________£¿
A earned high scores in standardized test in high school
B can work independently
C has high cognitive skills
D can cooperat well with other teammates
3..Christy Lleras would agree that a high school student should____.
A spend more time in extracurricular activities
B omit classes to take part in extracurricular activities
C pay more attention to standardized test scores
D keep a good balance between learning and relaxation
