ORLEANS A two story 1 500 ton and 16 000 square foot school built in 1879 is being moved about 300 yards to make way for the new University Medical Center in MidCity The school s relocation is marked as the largest structure ever to be moved in Louisiana and one of the top ten heaviest in America Officials originally had planned to demolish the McDonogh No 11 School but agreed to move the historic building at the city s request The school is being moved on a platform of steel beams put under the schoolhouse floor then set on 38 remote controlled power dollies made mobile 用心 爱心 专心6 by 300 tires The school is creeping forward on a short stay that will take about two days to move it about 300 yards State officials said the operation shows how closely the state and city leaders are working topreserve history We re looking to the future and building for the future and building something new We re also honoring the past and trying to save something historic said Michael Diresto with the Division of Administration for the state of Louisiana Christian Cancienne president and CEO of Orleans Shoring said the feat of this endeavor is something a person rarely sees When we heard about the opportunity to move a building this size we knew that there was never a building moved this size in the state of Louisiana he said We knew that because of the oak trees and neutral ground and the narrow streets we may never get the opportunity in our hometown again to do something like this Cancienne said the cost of the huge project weighs in at 350 000 but he s not making any profit from the move Cancienne said his team wanted to do the project for free because of the once in a lifetime opportunity When my guys heard that this opportunity was here they said Let s do it for free We got to get it No one else can do it And so we said let s just cover our cost so we bid it at 350 000 Cancienne s company is used to moving homes across the city but is happy to partake in the monumental task of moving a historic landmark The building won t remain at its current destination on Banks Street though It will eventually move to its permanent location once that has been determined 51 The purpose of the school relocation is A to show the generosity of the city government B to form a bigger education company C to leave room for a new project D to build a new museum for education 52 What Michael Diresto said in the 5th paragraph show us that A they want to remove the old buildings in the states B they have a strong sense of keeping the historic buildings C they don t have enough money to build a new school D they enjoy moving buildings from one city to another 53 Cancienne and his team made no money from the project because A it s a chance for them to do something for the state B the company is famous for doing volunteer work C the state is short of money to cover the cost D it s easy for them to complete the project 54 The underlined word demolish in the second paragraph means 用心 爱心 专心7 A to repair or rebuild a building B to destroy and rebuild a building C to decorate a building purposefully D to pull or knock down a building B SPEAKING in front of groups may not be a big deal for some people and there are those who probably sail through their careers without ever having to do so When I was studying for my C P A I was sure that I d be safe But life isn t predictable I ended up in a career that depends on public speaking I ran my own accounting firm for eight years and in 2009 was co founder of the American Institute of Certified Tax Coaches a nonprofit group based in San Diego that educates accountants lawyers and other tax professionals Before we started the organization in fact I thought I d better get some practice but my first talk around that time in front of group of 200 professional advisers for older taxpayers with my body trembling all the time was a fiasco 惨败 After that I decided to press on with as many speaking opportunities as possible to try to become more comfortable with the idea of talking before groups I knew it wouldn t be easy I know the material I ve written two books about taxes but I am a bit of a perfectionist and rely heavily on notes which can create a lot of anxiety I talked to my father about how the magic trick had bombed and he suggested that I have him criticize me I gave the same speech to him without the magic trick He said that I seemed more nervous when I relied on my notes and that I should speak more from my heart I ve done that ever since and it has helped To gain more experience I still look for speaking opportunities I speak before various associations and I started appearing on television news and talk shows a little more than a year ago I ve been on local TV in places like San Diego Los Angeles New Orleans and Hawaii I ve made much progress I ve had several audience members come up to me and say they thought my talk was great and that they learned a lot It s hard to believe but some people have asked u Do you ever get nervous Because you don t look nervous at all You re such a natural at this 55 From the first paragraph we can get to know that A the writer was good at speaking in public at first B the writer chose a major connected with speaking at college C the writer expected to take a career without speaking in public D the writer was not satisfied with his first career 56 The underlined part press on with in the 4th paragraph means A hurry continue in a determined way 用心 爱心 专心8 B push steadily against something C force or weight to something smooth D make repeated requests for 57 The writer s first talk in public failed because A he was not familiar with the topic B the audience didn t understand him C he was shy and miss the key points D he was too nervous to express himself well 58 In the last paragraph people say You are such a natural at this probably means that the author A is successful in his business B is good at making speeches C often appears on TV D acts naturally in public C Cities could soon be looking after their citizens all by themselves thanks to an operating system OS designed for the metropolis The Urban OS works just like a PC operating system but keeps buildings 9 traffic and services running smoothly The software takes in data from sensors dotted around the city to keep an eye on what is happening In the event of a fire the Urban OS might manage traffic lights so fire engines can reach the blaze swiftly The idea is for the Urban OS to gather data from sensors buried in buildings and many other places to keep an eye on what is happening in an urban area The sensors monitor everything from large scale events such as traffic flows across the entire city down to more local phenomena such as temperature sensors inside individual rooms The OS completely bypasses humans to manage communication between sensors and devices such as traffic lights air conditioning or water pumps that influence the quality of city life Channeling all the data coming from these sensors and services into a over arching control system had lots of benefits said Steve Lewis head of Living Plan FT the company behind Urban OS The system can help with monitoring patients at hospitals Urban OS should mean buildings get managed better and gathering the data from lots of sources gives a broader view of key city services such as traffic flows energy use and water levels If you were using an anatomy analogy the city has a network like the nervous system talking to a whole bunch of sensors gathering the data and 用心 爱心 专心9 causing actions said Mr Lewis We distribute that nervous system into the parts of the body the buildings the streets and other things Having one platform managing the entire urban landscape of a city means significant cost savings implementation consistency quality and manageability he added And it s got local computing capacity to allow a building or an automotive platform to interact with people where they are managing the energy water waste transportation logistics and human interaction in those areas That s dealt with by the building itself with the devices very locally talking to each other to figure out what s the best solution for the current dilemma 59 The Urban OS can benefit the citizens because it can A nurse patients at hospitals B put out fires in distance C clean their houses and streets every day D provide the latest information for them 60 What s the possible similarities between Urban OS and PC operating system A The network with cameras connected with the world B The service to help police control the traffic C The ability to deal with information D The devices dotted around the city 61 If a big city has been equipped with the Urban OS it can A waste a large amount of money B save a large amount of money C take the place of police D take the place of the nurses 62 The best tide of this passage may be A Smart Cities Get Their Own Operating System B Sensors Dotted Everywhere in Smart Cities C Police Will Lose Their Job in Big Cities D Streets Will Become More Safe D DOYLESTOWN STATION Pa CBS Marie Buonanno has boxes of holiday lights to decorate her house She already has one tree up in her living room and a nativity scene But this holiday season she would not dare decorate outside It is very disappointing that we can t celebrate the Christmas holiday the way that we religiously choose to says Buonanno Her home only has a holiday wreath on the door since the Doylestown Station Condominium Association told her the bylaws do not allow colored Christmas lights Last year she was fined 400 10 for each day her lights 用心 爱心 专心10 were up But she says she was the only one slapped with a fine One of my neighbors that I spoke to a few days ago who decorates with multicolored lights says he never got a letter of warning or a fine Only white non blinking lights are allowed outside And you can only put up a single white blue or orange light in your windows Neighbors collected 62 signatures to ask the Association board to allow colored Christmas lights In response the Association sent out a survey Out of 38 total responses 19 voted for white lights 14 voted for colored non blinking lights and 5 voted for colored blinking The board said the vote was 19 14 against colored lights interpreting the 5 votes as a separate category As long as it s tasteful says neighbor Marc Udell let the community do what the community is going to do No one answered the door at the Association president s house Some neighbors say they like the look of white lights Some colored lights are pretty and they have their place in neighborhoods but you never really know how far pe
