Phillida Eves and her husband Tedd Hamilton weren't unhappy living in the Galway countryside with their sons, Cian and Oisín, and their daughter, Soracha. "We had a lovely home, a car, lots of friends, and weekends sailing our boat," says Phillida. "But there's a line from a poem that goes: 'Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?' That says it all for me. We felt there was more to life."
So they quit their jobs, took their sons, then aged six and nine, out of school and went to southern Spain where they bought a 15-metre yacht(游艇) and headed up the coast to Barcelona. Soracha was not even three. And they brought along Poppy, the family dog. Now, two and a half years and 10,000 km later, they don't intend to stop. Tedd is a yacht engineer and can find work in ports. But, says Phillida, a supply teacher (代课老师), "Any family could do this."
The children are home-schooled using a correspondence course (函授课程). "My son had a recent project on the weather. The weather is crucial to us. My son knows more than most adults about weather systems, compasses, maps and directions. The weather, for him, means life or death."
Other subjects have become equally vivid. "They're living geography and history all the time. We've sailed round Italy, Sardinia, Sicily, and seen tiny islands we didn't know. The kids learned about ancient Romans by visiting Rome."
But what about social development? Again, Phillida is sanguine. "The children have become much more socially confident since we set out. They play with tons of families of all nationalities on other boats we meet."
Living for the moment, they believe, is a huge life lesson. "Our children never say they're bored." The other day they stopped mid-ocean and the kids swam, 110 km from land. "That's the kind of freedom we want for them," says Phillida. "That's the kind of freedom they've got."
1.The couple quit their jobs and took their children traveling because .
A. their children wanted to make friends of all nationalities
B. they wanted to experience more in their lives
C. their children wanted complete freedom
D. they were unhappy with their lives
2.The underlined word "sanguine" in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to " ".
A. patient B. curious
C. excited D. optimistic
3.The author describes the children's home schooling by .
A. using examples
B. making comparisons
C. following the order of importance
D. describing the changes in space order

Electronic sensors built into paper could be used in a range of ways from information storage to touch screens and more.
Electronic sensors built into cartons(纸盒)may make it easier to tell when it’s time to throw out rotten milk or orange juice. And that’s just the start. At least that’s the goal for researchers working on putting electronics into paper. They’re trying to figure out how to combine the flexibility, low-cost and recyclability of paper with the information-carrying ability of electronics.
Daniel Torbjork, a physics graduate student in Finland, has been working on the problem. He’s published a review of the field in the journal Advanced Materials.
Much research has been focused in this area. While most electronic applications require patterned conducting structures, conductive paper could be used in applications such as energy storage devices, sensors, electric heaters and others, according to Torbjork.
“You could even have some interactive functions in magazines,” Torbjork said, “You could put a simple game in a package. If you want a touch screen, press a button and then something happen. Sensors in paper could tell us when something has gone bad.”
Additional applications, such as information storage and security paper, have been suggested for magnetic papers containing magnetite. In Massachusetts, researchers have figured out how to post a video of such a device put into a paper airplane.
German researchers have also put electronic chips in paper bank notes to defend counter-feiters(造伪币者). Paper is a good material but printing electronics also requires low-cost manufacturing. As many US and European paper makers lose market share to cheaper paper from China, these big paper companies are looking for added value products. That’s where electronic paper devices could make a difference.
“The major obstacles are paper’s large surface roughness and chemical impurities.” Torbjork says. But others in the field think that electronic sensors in paper are still far from the consumer marketplace.
“I don’t think it’s going to happen.” said Roy Horgan. “You need a conductive surface. It could be 10 years out. What we are looking for are solutions that you can commercialize to?day.”
Solar Print is partnering with Italian automaker Fiat to develop a unique auto-glass with tiny photostatic cells(光电)that can capture electricity from the sun. In the meantime, using paper to conduct electricity is still a “blue-sky” project.
“I would love to see someone prove me wrong, because that means that it’s actually happening.” Horgan said. “If someone comes up with conductive paper, then that’s a very interesting technology.”
1.Putting electronics into paper will ________.
A. cut the cost and impurity of paper
B. depend on flexible conductive structure
C. help consume rotten milk or orange juice
D. combine the advantages of paper and electronics
2.Paragraphs 4 to 7 mainly talk about the ________ of the conductive paper.
A. practical use B. theories
C. structures D. design process
3.Some paper makers welcome the new technology probably because it will ________.
A. put an end to fake money B. make the paper smoother
C. add more value to paper D. improve the printing technology
4.From the passage, we know that Roy Horgan ________.
A. has a burning desire to make a great profit
B. showed much interest in Solar Print industry
C. is not confident about the conductive paper
D. started a “blue-sky” project to study paper
