17．Your glasses may someday replace your smartphone，and some New Yorkers are ready for the switch．Some in the city can't wait to try them on and use the maps and GPS that the futuristic eyewear is likely to include．

The smartphone-like glasses will likely come out this year and cost between﹩250and﹩600，the Times said，possibly including a variation of augmented（增强的） reality，a technology already available on smartphones and tablets （平板电脑） that overlays information onto the screen about one's surroundings．So，for example，if you were walking down a street，indicators would pop up showing you the nearest coffee shop or directions could be plotted out and come into view right on the sidewalk in front of you．

Google publisher Seth Weintraub，who has been reporting on the smartphone-like glasses since late last year，said he is confident that this type of wearable device will eventually be as common as smartphones．
"It's just like smartphones 10years ago，"Weintraub said．"A few people started getting emails on their phones，and people thought that was crazy．Same kind of thing．We see people bending their heads to look at their smartphones，and it's unnatural，"he said．"There's gonna be improvements to that，and this a step there．"

14．Instagram is a fast，beautiful and fun way to share your life with friends and family．Take a picture or video，choose a filter to transform its look and feel．and then post to Instagram-it's that easy．You can even share to Facebook．Twitter and more．It's a new way to see the world．So many photos of food are contained on Instagram-now a pop-up diner in London is taking advantage of this new trend by letting people settle the bill for their meals simply by uploading photos of their dishes to social networks．   
I always thought people's taking pictures of their f ood was kind of silly，but at this new pop-up restaurant in the UK，I'd probably do it too．"The Picture House"is the world's first pay-by-photo restaurant-you order，click a photo of the food，share on Instagram and eat for free!
The restaurant belongs to frozen food giant（巨人）Birds Eye，who came up with the idea to cash in on people's addiction with photographing food and sharing the pictures online．They conducted a survey and found out that more than half of the British population regularly took pictures of their meals．So they realized it w9as a better way to advertise their new dining range．
The pop-up diner was open in Soho，London for three days in May，and is now moving to other major UK cities．They serve two-course meals that customers don't have to pay for，if they photo and lnstagram it．
The restaurant is a part of Birds Eye's"Food for Life"campaign，a new marketing project that aims at changing the way people look at frozen food．"Taking photos of food enables people to show off and to share their mealtime moments-from the everyday to the special，"said marketing director Margaret Jobling．
The reaction to The Picture House has been great so far And the pay-by-picture concept has proven to be an effective way．Alternative payment methods are actually gaining popularity among a lot of businesses．Last year in a cafe in Germany customers pay by how much time they spend there，not by what they eat．
25．Instagram probably isC．
A．a restaurant free of charge     
B．a campaign of"Food for Life''
C．a program used to share photos  
D．a new marketing project
26．What's the author's attitude to this new trend？D

1．One of the newest taboos （禁忌）  in  American society is the topic of fat．Unlike many other taboos，fat is a topic that America talk about often．It is not taboo to talk about fat； it's taboo to be fat．
The"in"look is thin．In the work world，most companies prefer youthful-looking，slim executives to sell their image and their products to the public．The thin look is associated with youth，vigor and success．The fat person，on the other hand，is thought of as lazy and lacking in energy，self-discipline and self-respect．After all，people think，how can people who care about themselves，and therefore the way they look，allow themselves to become fat？In an image conscious society like the U．S．，fat is"out"．
It is not surprising，then，that millions of Americans have become obsessed （着迷）with staying slim and"in shape"．The pursuit of youthful physical appearance is not，however，the only reason for America's obsession with diet and exercise．
Recent research has shown the great importance of diet and exercise for personal health．As in most technologically developed nations，the life-style of North Americans has changed very quickly during the course of last century．Modern machines do all the physical labor that people were once forced to do by hand．Cars and buses transport us quickly from point to point．As the result of inactivity and disuse，people's bodies can easily become weak and vulnerable to disease．In an effort to avoid such a fate，millions of Americans are spending more of their time exercising．
The effects of this new appreciation of the importance of exercise is clear：parks are filled with joggers and bicyclists，physical education programs are enjoying a newly-founded fame and many companies are providing exercise equipment for their employees to use during the work day．
28．In the United States，fat is somethingA．
A．people always talk about
B．not regarded as a taboo topic
C．people usually pay no attention to
D．belonging to the same treatment as other taboos
29．What do Americans think of thin people？B
A．Their work helps them to look youthful
B．They are energetic and successful．
C．Their appearances affects their behavior
D．They are lacking in self-discipline．
30．According to Paragraph 4，which of the following is an example of"inactivity？C
A．Mary does her housework by hand．
B．Celia takes part in a marathon
C．Cecilia goes to her office by car．
D．Margaret plays badminton every Saturday．
31．Why are parks filled with joggers and bicyclists？D
A．Because these parks are fit for sports．
B．Because people are enjoying prestigious status in parks．
C．Because people are taking part in physical education programs．
D．Because people now recognize they should do more exercise．
18．China is a developed country．
19．智力；聪明 n．intelligence．
