Here, Teens has chosen some of the most interesting ones.Ember MugIts hard to always keep coffee at the right temperature, especially in winter. Its too hot to drink at first, but before we know it, it gets too cold and loses all its taste. The perfect level of warmth for a cup of coffee only lasts for 37 seconds, which makes the Ember Mug a great invention. It keeps your coffee or tea at a certain temperature, anywhere between 45 and 62, once you set it through a smartphone app.Tasty One TopTV cooking shows make cooking look so easy, but its almost impossible to get the recipes to cook the same as how the professionals cook.

You choose a recipe and the app will let the cooker know what to do. For example, itll tell you when to turn your steak or when to add certain ingredients.JiboSmart speakers from panies like Amazon and Xiaomi have added a lot of fun to our lives, but theyre still just faceless speakers. However, Jibo, developed by MIT professor Cynthia Breazeal, has brought smart technology to life. Said to be “the worlds first social robot for the home”, Jibo looks like a cartoon character. Inside its “head”, there are various sensors and cameras, which allow it to recognize faces and speech. It can also set alarms, remind you of important things, tell you the weather and read news or messages from your friends and family.21. How can Tasty One Top help people?A.

A cartoon character.B. A faceless robot.C. A family assistant.D. A smart alarm.23. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To advertise high-tech products.B. To introduce some new inventions.C. To encourage subscription to Time.D. To tell about some “tasty” products.BThe Diet Zone: A Dangerous PlaceDiet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, no-fat diet, vegetable diet We are surrounded by the word “diet” everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically.Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brain to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fatty, high-calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale（秤）instead. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word “diet” in food labels.On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we dont have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain es without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients. Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemical that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological and physical harm that es from using them.24. From Paragraph 1, we learn that _.A. diet products fail to bring out peoples potential.B. people have difficulty in choosing diet products.C. diet products are misleading people.D. people are fed up with diet products.25. One psychological effect of diet products is that people tend to _.A. try out a variety of diet foods.B. hesitate before they enjoy diet foods.C. pay attention to their own eating habits.D. watch their weight rather than their diet.26. In Paragraph 3, “gain es without pain” probably means _.A. losing weight is effortless.B. it costs a lot to lose weight.C. diet products bring no pain.D. diet products are free from calories.27. Diet products indirectly harm people physically because such products _.A. are over-consumed.B. lack basic nutrients.C. are short of chemicals.D. provide too much energy.C There were smiling children all the way. Clearly they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, wave to plete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved. I had always traveled to Malaysia by plane or car, so this was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read my Economics. It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johore Baru was just another city like Singapore, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight. Immediately I came alive; I decided to wave back. From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time. The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pm. Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth. I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beautiful. When my uncle arrived with a smile, I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug (拥抱). I had never done this before. He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face warmed up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car. I looked forward to the return journey.28.

Reading gives people delight. D. Smiles brighten people up.DI was in the line at Dunkin Donuts. The couple in front of me had ordered their food and stepped to the side. I walked to order mine. Quick and simple. Then I noticed a young man. I could tell he was not having the best of luck and it showed on his face. He walked in carrying his belongings in a torn plastic bag. The couple ahead of me turned, looked, and then turned away. The lady grabbed her purse tighter and her husband quickly stood in front of her.I moved over so he could order. He looked at the board, checked his pockets and didnt seem to have enough for anything. So, he turned around and walked out. I picked up my coffee and followed him out. He had gone maybe five paces when I shouted, “Hey! Do you want a donut(甜甜圈)?” A little embarrassed, he said, “I dont have any money.” I told him to e on back in. As we came to the counter, the couple who were still inside looked shocked and confused. We came close to the cashier and I said, “What kind do you want?” He whispered, “Jelly.” I said, “Go ahead. Tell her what you want.”“Jelly donut please,” he said. The cashier looked at me and said, “Is that it?” I looked at him. “Do you want anything else?” “Can I have a coffee?” he asked me. I said, “Yes. Tell her.” He did. The total came to $2. 30, which is small change pared to what the typical person spends in a day. But to him it made a great difference.I walked out and the couple were outside talking. The lady whispered to me, “I am glad you did thatbefore he tried to rob the place for a donut.”I stopped, looked at her, and said, “Are you a Christian?” She said, “Of course!” I said, “Are you sure? Because arent Christians supposed to love their brothers and sisters and help them when they need it, and not judge?” She didnt have a response.32. Why did the couple get nervous immediately they saw the young man?A. Because the young man looked like a murderer.B. Because they had been robbed by the young man before.C.
