【题目】In the latest beauty craze(狂热) sweeping social media in China, women—and even some men—are boasting that they are paper thin, by posting photographs of their waists behind a vertical(垂直) piece of A4 paper. To qualify, the waist must be entirely hidden by the paper. A piece of A4 paper is 8.3 by 11.7 inches, roughly the size of a sheet of American letter paper.
With the A4 Waist, the trend is attracting hundreds of photographs and thousands of comments on Weibo and other social media networks like Weixin or WeChat. Being abnormally thin is a widespread standard of beauty for women, one that has been criticized as an unhealthy ideal of female attractiveness.
The tiny waist has a long tradition in China, going back at least to King Ling of Chu, who ruled from 540 to 529 B.C. Many in China know the passage from the Book of Han, the history of the Western Han Dynasty: “The King of Chu loved a narrow waist. Many people at court starved to death.’’
Several commentators have found the A4 trend disturbing. In a telephone interview, He Xiaobin, senior fashion features editor at the Chinese edition of GQ magazine, said, “I find it completely stupid. Everybody has a different frame and body shape. Using a single size to define all human beings and thinking you have created a new standard is foolish.’’ The A4 waist challenge annoyed him, saying that it allows certain people to gain bragging rights, while leaving others in depression.
Luckily, some who do not qualify are turning to humor for comfort. Can they substitute a different paper size, such as A3, which is 11.7 inches across or measure a body part besides the waist?
【1】What do we know about the latest beauty craze?
A. Women with A4 waists are considered beauties.
B. The love for slim waist is a new modern trend.
C. A4 waist is an old standard of being slim in China.
D. It is a new method to help people go on a diet.
【2】According to He Xiaobin, showing A4 waist in social media is ________.
A. traditional B. challenging
C. disturbing D. instructive
【3】According to the last paragraph, some who don’t have A4 waists take the craze as a ________.
A. lie B. joke
C. dream D. target

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
Computer technology is still developing rapidly. The computer of the future will continue to increase in value and performance while decreasing in cost. It will become smaller, but faster and more powerful.
It is possible to make some guesses about what the future of the computer will look like, based upon the types of technologies that are being developed now. A lot of progress has already been made in some of these new technologies, but some are still in their earliest stages and may not be ready for use for years. Two of the most interesting areas of computing that are currently being developed are quantum computing (量子计算) and nanotechnology (纳米技术).
Quantum computing is one possibility for the future of the computer that could make computers run far faster than even the quickest computers do today. Quantum computers could be able to do what modern supercomputers are unable to do by using transistors that are able to take on many states at the same time.
Nanotechnology could also change the face of computing, by creating computers that could be very powerful, though they are tiny in size. These computers could be incorporated (并入) into everyday objects, including electrical appliances (电器), clothes and even the human body. We will be able to use computers in new and unimaginable ways. They will become a part of our lives rather than simply being a box that is used only for specific purposes, such as work.
Quantum computing and nanotechnology will be able to play new roles, which will make us live greener lives, as well as enjoy better health and happier lives.
(1)Which of the following can NOT describe the computer of the future properly?
A.Much smaller.
B.Much faster.
C.More powerful.
D.Less valuable.
(2)According to the text, quantum computing _____.
A.has been put in use so far
B.can make computers run by themselves
C.can reduce the cost of computers
D.will work by using transistors
(3)We can learn from the text that nanotechnology will _____.
A.create much smaller computers
B.be used in electrical appliances and clothing
C.change the structure of computers
D.make computers just serve specific purposes
(4)The text is mainly about _____.
A.what nanotechnology is
B.what quantum computing is
C.what the future of the computer is
D.what future computers can bring us

Last week I went to visit to my former neighbor, Mr. Yang. He and I used to living next to each other for many years. About half a year ago, an order came which our old buildings, as well as many other similar ones, should be going to be pulled away to make room for a main street. So they had to move apart. Mr. Yang now lives in the suburbs near a beautiful park. His apartment is much big than before. The only problem is that it took quite a long time to get to the downtown area. Thus, Mr. Yang doesn't seem to worry about the long distance. He says that new subway line will be built in a few year and he is sure life will be better in the future.
