My family and I go to the Big Island of Hawaii in the United States every year. Each year, we do the same things-spend time at the beaches, surfing and fishing. On this trip, however, my family got tired of this holiday style and wanted to do something different. We learned from a local that there was a hot spring on the island called the Boiling Pots. Without doing any research, we decided to set off on an adventure to that spot.

We drove to the destination, but were surprised to find that the area was closed off by a fence (栅栏). Reading the sign placed in front of the gate, we found out it was, in fact, a forbidden area that lay at the bottom of the mountain. And we were on the mountaintop. Seemingly out of nowhere, a strange man came up to us. He told us he would go to the Boiling Pots and that he would show us the way down there if we would just jump over the fence and follow him. After some discussion, my family, 8 members, followed the man past the fence.

The 'path' was a slope (斜坡) covered in mud and high grass. Several times, our members fell but nobody gave up and turned back because it seemed an amazing adventure.

After about one hour's walk, we arrived at the bottom finally, but a large river stopped us. The strange man went to borrow a boat from his friend living nearby. We stood on the bank, waiting for him and joking that we could swim across the river.

Just then, I heard the voice of my father screaming at us to move. I looked up to the sky and saw a large tree falling towards us. I ran forward, pushing the people in front of me. I fell to the ground, hearing a loud sound of the tree hitting the ground, along with pieces of branches surrounding us.

Something is happening to the British. They seem to be developing green fingers! The number of people growing their own fruit and vegetables 【1】 (increase) in the past year, according to Gardeners’ World.

Gardens and private land for vegetables and fruit across the UK have been put to use with people’s 【2】 (discover) of the joys of home-grown produce. But not everyone has space for a vegetable land or a flowerbed. And sometimes a window box just isn’t enough for 【3】 gardening challenge. This is why people plant flowers or vegetables in public spaces to make them 【4】 (green) and more pleasing to the eye.

Many people would approve 【5】 beautifying towns and cities, but this type of gardening is not 【6】 (strict) legal. Therefore, the special gardening often takes place late at night. But the image of the enthusiastic gardener is not someone 【7】 breaks the law. It is of someone spending all their time in 【8】 (greenhouse) and potting sheds (育秧棚), a person knowing every aspect of how to tend and grow the plants.

Yet, despite the increase in people growing their own, half of the UK population 【9】 (be) still puzzled about when most fruit and vegetables are in season, according to Gardeners’ World. It seems that Britain still has a long way 【10】 (go) before being called a nation of gardeners

The program came into effect in the state of New South Wales on December 1 following a six-month trial earlier this year, which the government claims caught over 100,000 drivers. Similar technology has been tested in England and Saudi Arabia, but the NSW program marks the first time it has been widely carried out.

There won’t be any signs signalling the cameras’ presence, either. “We have to unfortunately use the element of surprise to get people to think ‘well, I could get caught at any time,’” said NSW Roads Minister Andrew Constance. “I want behaviour to change and I want it changed immediately.”

The cell phone detection camera can’t actually discover people using their phones in time. Instead, it takes photographs of every single vehicle that passes by it, using artificial intelligence (AI) to analyse them later. If the software detects a likely offender (违法者), the image is then checked by an employee before a punishment notice is sent out.

Drivers will only receive warnings for the first three months the cell phone detection cameras are in operation. After that, drivers who are caught will be fined 344 dollars, as well as losing five points from their driver’s license.

According to the NSW government, if the AI doesn’t detect any phone use in a photo it will be deleted without any human seeing it, usually within an hour.

【1】Why does the NSW government carry out the camera program?

A.To detect the number of drivers using cell phones.

B.To help drivers avoid being caught in surprise.

C.To change drivers’ behavior of using cell phones while driving.

D.To test similar technology like some European countries.

【2】What does the underlined word “them” in paragraph 4 refer to?

A.Cameras.B.Drivers.C.Photos.D.Passers-by.

【3】What may happen to the offenders detected by the camera?

A.Some regular written warnings.B.No punishment in the limited time.

C.A heavy fine without point loss.D.A make-up test of the driver’s license.

【4】What is the text mainly about?

A.A road Al camera system in Australia.

B.A test of world-first AI camera system.

C.The behaviors of Australian drivers.

D.The development of AI camera system.

Seni Felic owns a restaurant in San Francisco called Bistro SF Grill, and he is feeling optimistic despite the crisis caused by COVID-19 “We’re going to pool our resources and people will pull together, and it will have a strong effect on solving any problems,” he told Reader’s Digest. With this in mind, he decided to offer nonprofit lunches and dinners in his restaurant.

“We are inviting all to stop by Bistro SF Grill to take a lunch or dinner box with food prepared in advance. The price is only $5.50 and it covers our expenses. We’d like to give for free, but we can’t afford it. Our idea was: Let’s try to help.” he said.

Despite San Francisco’s “shelter-in-place” order, Felic said they still plan to offer meals. The move deals with three problems in the community: offering various high-quality food to people who may not be able to cook or who can’t afford Whole Foods prices; helping the business continue operating during the crisis; and paying some of the hourly workers who make the food so that they can earn enough money to get through the hard times.

He believes that working together and helping others will be the key to helping all to get through this. “This problem will be controlled, and I just feel optimistic,” he added. “When people come together and cooperate, I think we can overcome almost anything.”

【1】What made Seni Felic optimistic during the time of COVID-19?

A.His religious belief.B.His decision to offer meals.

C.People’s working together.D.The government’s order.

【2】What can we learn about the restaurant’s move to offer nonprofit meals?

A.People should take a box to pack the food.

Few people I know seem to have much desire or time to cook. Making Chinese 【1】(dish) is seen as especially troublesome. Many westerners 【2】 come to China cook much less than in their own countries once they realize how cheap 【3】 can be to eat out. I still remember 【4】 (visit) a friend who’d lived here for five years and I 【5】(shock) when I learnt she hadn’t cooked once in all that time.

While regularly eating out seems to 【6】(become) common for many young people in recent years, it’s not without a cost. The obvious one is money; eating out once or twice a week may be 【7】(afford) but doing this most days adds up. There could be an even 【8】 (high) cost on your health. Researchers have found that there is a direct link between the increase in food eaten outside the home and the rise in 【9】(weigh) problems.

If you are not going to suffer this problem, then I suggest that the next time you go to your mum’s home 【10】 dinner, get a few cooking tips from her. Cooking food can be fun. You might also begin to notice the effects not only on your health but in your pocket.

So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so, too, does crying.

Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional health, and crying seems to work well. One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.

Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and friendlier and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don't even know we’re very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.

Just as crying can be healthy, not crying - holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering - can be bad for physical health, Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don't fight it. It's a natural –and healthy-emotional response.
