In the new year, the ongoing heavy smog in large parts of China is disrupting schools, making parents and students worried. China has a four-tier warning system for severe weather, with red being the most serious, followed by orange, yellow and blue. When the orange alert is in force, outdoor activities in schools are canceled and schools could suspend classes during red alerts for air pollution. Therefore, on the last day of the New Year holiday in China, authorities in Zhengzhou, capital of central Chinas Henan Province, ordered students of primary and high schools as well as kindergartens to take Tuesday off as the city is on red alert for smog. According to an urgent notice issued by the citys educational bureau, primary and high schools may use weekends or holidays to make up the missing classes.However, some schools organized live-streaming classes for students at home in Xian, Capital of northwest Chinas Shanxi province.

Id worked hard for over a year to create it, and the premiere issue (首次发刊) was a real success. Shortly after we had mailed 25,000 copies, I received one in the mail. But this one wasnt as beautiful as the ones wed sent out. It was marked in red ink correcting the grammatical errors (语法错误) in it. A talented editor had read it carefully and found more errors than I could have imagined. I felt abashed. A magazine called Creating Excellence should be perfect in its content (内容). The stories were good, but the errors this woman had found showed that our magazine was far from being excellent. At first, I was not satisfied with my editor for not having avoided the mistakes, and dissatisfied with the woman who seemed to have taken pleasure in pointing them out. Later, I was dissatisfied with myself for not having employed a better editor. Then I realized that I had to face up to my mistake. I called the talented editor. I thanked her for taking the time to read our magazine so carefully. Painful as it was, I accepted responsibility for it. Then I offered her the job of editing our magazine. The result was a great improvement in it; we could now be very proud of our magazine. From this I learnt that an upsetting moment can be an opportunity to see the truth, and it can help to prevent one making the same mistakes, and to make excellence a reality.25.

A. the author put little effort into her first magazine B. the authors job was selling magazines C. the author was very satisfied with her work D. the author experienced a total failure26.

What do we learn about the woman who found the errors in the magazine?A. She was causing trouble on purpose. B. She liked pointing out the errors of others.C. She contributed a lot to the success of the premiere issue. D. She ended up joining the magazine team.28. What do we learn from this passage? A. Pride is the biggest enemy of success. B. Success is behind many failures. C. Pointing out others mistakes can help you find a job. D. Accepting responsibility for ones errors can lead to real excellence.C It was on her 14th birthday that her first book, In the Forest of the Night, was accepted for publication. It was a huge success gaining the attention of millions of young readers. At 16, her second novel, Demon in My View, also reached the bookstores. Several books later , the teenage author still works away in her room, surrounded by shelves full of dark tales about vampires(吸血鬼)and witches. Amelia Atwater-Rhodes is widely seen as Americas finest teen writer and was named one of Teen Peoples “20 Teens Who Will Change the World.” Born in 1984, she began making up stories when she was about three years old. “I never stopped and said, I want to write,” Amelia remembers. “I loved stories and created stories before I was old enough to know how to write them down.” In her family, reading was basic and fun. “My parents encouraged me to read- and to read anything I wanted, so long as I was reading,” she said. “They never restricted what I read. Later, when I started writing, they never criticized what I did or said I was too young. They never said it was impossible for me to achieve what I have.” In her short but successful career, Amelia has tried different styles. But vampires were the first characters to really come alive in her work. From them she has developed a whole world, one which she always enjoys learning more about. As a published teen writer, Amelias advice to other teens who dream of being authors is: just do it! “I believe anything is possible. Dont give up your dreams just because you fear failure. Getting a book published is difficult, but if I can do it, others can too. ”29. What can we learn about Amelia Atwater-Rhodes? A. Reading widely helped her a lot in her career. B.

A Top-selling Teen Writer Pens Vampire TalesD Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines. Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated a small robotic wheelchair directed by a persons thoughts. In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts. “Our brain has billions of nerve cells. These send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓) to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles.” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices. The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp (头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain. Prof. Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication, and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.” He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time.33. BCI is a technology that can _. A.help the disabled to recover B. control a persons thoughtsC. help to update computer systemsD. link the human brain with computers34. How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?A. By talking to the machine. B. By controlling his muscles.C. By using his mind. D. By moving his hand.35. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain InjuriesB. BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the DisabledC. New Findings About How the Human Brain WorksD.
