That might be a great book to read out loud to your mom or dad in their car. Put a cassette in the recorder, open the book, hit the record button and start reading out loud.

You get to be all artistic and creative here. You might want to play music in the background. Do whatever you want. The gift is you, so you decide.

Where do inventors get their inspirations(灵感)? The inspiration behind each of these inventions varies. Take the shopping cart as an example. Sylvan Goldman was a grocery store owner. Like most businessmen, he wished that his customers would buy more so that he could make more money. He knew山at if they could carry more goods easily as they were shopping,山en his sales would go up. While thinking about the problem one night, he had an idea. Working with a local handyman named Fred Young, he designed the first shopping cart. Today, retailers who use shopping carts sell more goods and make more profits. Nature has also inspired inventors throughout history. This is what happened to George de Mestral one day. While hunting with his dog in the Swiss Alps, he noticed how the burs(剌球) of certain plants stuck to his clothing and to his dog s fur. After examining them under a microscope, he found they had tiny hooks that could easily stick to the fibers of clothing or animal hide. For the next ten years, George de Mestral searched for the hest way to produce his idea. The result of his original inspiration was Velcro, which is used in many modem objects, including sportswear, shoes, automobiles, and even space suits. These examples show us that there are at least two possible inspirations for human Creativity in the world of inventions - profit and nature. No doubt, the future will continue to breathe new life into the economies of the world with fresh ideas and inventions. How many of their creations will be inspired by natural phenomena? The worlds problems require creativity and we can expect best solutions from future generations.25. Why did sales go up in Sylvan Goldmans grocery store after he began providing shopping carts?A.

Used to the life of rural Puerto Rico(波多黎各), I had to adjust to the similarly arranged, aggressive two-dimensionality of New York. Everywhere I looked, my eyes met gray and brown straight-edged buildings with sharp corners and deep shadows. Every few blocks there was a cement(水泥) playground surrounded by chain-link fence. A girl came out of the building next door, a jump rope in her hand, and she hopped over. “Are you Hispanic?” she asked. “No, Im Puerto Rican.” “Same thing. Puerto Rican, Hispanic. Thats what we are here.” She skipped a tight circle, stopped abruptly, and shoved the rope in my direction. “Want a turn?”“Sure.” I hopped on one leg, then the other. “So, if youre Puerto Rican, they call you Hispanic?” “Yeah. Anybody who speaks Spanish.” I jumped a circle, as she had done, but faster. “You mean, if you speak Spanish, youre Hispanic?”“Well, yeah. No . . . I mean your parents have to be Puerto Rican or Cuban or something.”“Okay, your parents are Cuban, lets say, and youre born here, but you dont speak Spanish. Are you Hispanic?”“I guess so,” she finally said. “It has to do with being from a Spanish country. I mean, you or your parents, like, even if you dont speak Spanish, youre Hispanic, you know?” She looked at me uncertainly. But I didnt know. Id always been Puerto Rican, and it hadnt occurred to me that in New York Id be someone else.Later, I asked. “Are we Hispanics, Mami?” “Yes, because we speak Spanish.” “But a girl said you dont have to speak the language to be Hispanic.” “What girl? Where did you meet a girl?” “Outside. She lives in the next building.” “Who said you could go out to the sidewalk? This isnt Puerto Rico. Something could happen to you.” I listened to Mamis lecture with depressed eyes and the necessary respect. But inside, I quaked. Two days in New York, and Id already become someone else. It wasnt hard to imagine that greater dangers lay ahead.49. The first paragraph suggests that the author experienced New York as .

Thats the message from experts behind three new studies that tackled an often debated question: Do daily multivitamins make you healthier?“We believe that the case is closed - supplementing(补充) the diet of well-nourished adults with (most) mineral or vitamin supplements has no clear benefit and might even be harmful,” concluded the authors of the editorial summarizing the new research papers. They urge consumers to not waste their money on multivitamins. “The stop wasting your money means that perhaps youre spending money on things that wont protect you long term,” editorial co-author, Dr. Edgar Miller said, “What will protect you is if you spend the money on fruits, vegetables, nuts, beans, low fat dairy, and things like that. Exercising would probably be a better use of the money.”The strong message was based on a review of the findings from three studies that tracked multivitamins link to cancer protection, heart health, and brain and cognitive(认知的) measures. The first study looked at vitamin supplementations role in preventing chronic(慢性的) disease. The next study looked at whether long-term use of multivitamins would have any effect on slowing cognitive decline. The third study looked specifically at multivitamins and minerals role in preventing heart attack. “The three studies found no difference in rates of chronic disease, heart attack and the need for hospitalization between vitamin-takers and placebo(安慰剂)-takers.” Dr. Edgar Miller stated.One expert agreed some nutrient-deficient people may still benefit from multivitamins. “There might be an argument to continue taking a multi(vitamin) to replace or supplement your not healthy diet,” Dr. Edgar Miller added. He also notes that vitamins can benefit people with celiac disease and those who are pregnant.53. This text is likely to be selected from a book of .A. medicine B. education C. food D. business54. Which of the following is NOT Dr. Edgar Millers opinion according to the passage?A. Vitamins should not be used for chronic disease prevention. Enough is enough.B. Having a balanced diet and exercising would probably be a better way to keep healthy.C. The three studies do not provide support for use of multivitamin supplements.D. Taking vitamins to replace or supplement your healthy diet is necessary.55. What can be inferred from the text?A. Vitamin supplements have proved harmful to the health of adults.B. Vitamin supplements are beneficial in certain conditions.C. Nowadays taking vitamin supplements is common to most people.D. Daily multivitamins will make you healthier.56.

When I was a boy in front of every house in the summer evenings you would find young people together singing the songs of the day or the old songs. Today you hear these terrible machines going night and day. We will not have a vocal cord (声带) left.” Music has greatly changed in the past hundred years, which has been everywhere in our world: rivers of digital melody flow on the Internet or on disc; MP3 players with forty thousand songs can be put in a back pocket or a purse. Yet, for most of us, music is no longer something we do ourselves, or even watch other people do in front of us. It has become a radically virtual medium, an art without a face. Ever since Edison invented the phonograph cylinder(留声机), people have been assessing what the medium of recording has done for and to the art of music. Sousa was a spokesman for the party of doom; in the opposite corner are the utopians(乌托邦), who argue that technology has not impr
