This is the Radio Doctor with another word of advice on how to keep yourself healthy and how to keep away from doctors. As everyone knows, prevention is the best cure (治疗). If you haven’t cold, stay away from the people who have. Keep your rooms aired. Keep yourself warm. And don’t get yourself too tired or too excited by pleasure. Remember that an hour’s sleep before midnight is worth two hour’s sleep after midnight. Don’t get yourself too sad or too excited. A healthy mind is a healthy body. If you have caught a cold, go to see your doctor and don’t be afraid to take the medicine your doctor gives to you. Remember not to sneeze over anybody else. Those little viruses (病素) enjoy nothing better than taking a free ride through the air into anybody else. In this way he will get a cold.

Just a couple of hours ago, I was on the plane, ready to fly home from London. The flight had been delayed by a few hours so it felt good to be so close to takeoff. I had my iPod in place and a new book to read. Then, over the loudspeaker came the pilot’s voice: “The ground crew has found a metal instrument in one tire. We regret that we must cancel this flight.”

The passengers’reactions that announcement led to were interesting. One man close to me began to argue with a flight attendant. A couple in another row complained loudly. A businessman in a black suit actually kicked the seat in front of him. Yet some passengers responded differently. An elderly gentleman smiled as he helped others take their bags down from the overhead compartments (行李厢). A teenager, rather than trying to rush off the plane like most of the other passengers, stopped to help a woman with a disability. The lady sitting next to me laughed and said: “Hey, it’s not the end of the world,” before she made a call to her kids and shared her adventure with them. The wisest among us have a remarkable ability to maintain grounded when times get tough.

No life is perfect; mine certainly isn’t. We all must face challenges, both large and small. You and I have the power to choose to rise above the external circumstances. We always have the choice to be strong and kind when things fall apart.

That’s grace under pressure. My seatmate was right—things could have been so much worse. Anyway, I am safe. I have my health. I have two wonderful children. I have work I love and so much to be grateful for. Sure I now have to wait a few hours to catch the next flight home.

1.What caused the passengers’ different reactions?

A. The loudspeaker.

B. The delay of the flight.

C. The ground crew’s fault.

D. The pilot’s announcement.

2.Who turned his anger on the seat?

A. The teenager helping the disabled.

B. The old man taking bags down.

C. The man in a dark suit.

D. The man close to me.

3.What did the woman sitting next to the author do?

A. She assisted a disabled woman.

B. She made a phone call to her family.

C. She helped others carry their luggage.

D. She told moving stories to her children.

4.What can we learn from the story?

A. Our life is full of ups and downs.

B. It is natural to be scared under pressure.

C. We should help each other in times of difficulty.

D. We should be positive and calm when life is hard.

When it comes to the Internet, people talk about the password most. Actually, it’s been under fire for a long time. Research has shown that passwords are not a very good way to protect sensitive information.

People would use some random characters, numbers and symbols. Furthermore, a unique password would be used for every site or application the user uses. Unfortunately, the longer and more complex passwords become, the more people are likely to forger them. Therefore, they use the same password for every service or application. These are all big no-noes and essentially defeat the purpose of a password.

Google is trying to kill off passwords on Android devices by introducing the Trust API, which does what simple passwords cannot and gives developers a framework for securing their application using a number of security systems and metrics(衡量标准)on the device. A Trust Score will be generated based on a number of metrics including your device location, face scanning, fingerprints, and the things like your typing speed or the way you speak. Taken one at a time, these metrics are not secure. But taken together, these metrics will help recognize the real “you”.

The good news is that Google has already been testing this on real world data. Google has proven the Trust API works. Next Google will run tests will some banks to see if the Trust API meets their needs before rolling out the system on Android phones later. It may take another year for apps and popular sites to start using the Trust API.

This is a pretty exciting change. Passwords have been around for a lone time. Although the security of systems has been improved, the usability of systems hasn’t been proved much. Google appears to have the best of them. Maybe that never-ending conflict between security and convenience will be able to take a break once the Trust system comes out.

1.What is implied in the underlined sentence in Para. 2?

A. Users make mistakes in using passwords.

B. Users should know the purpose of passwords.

C. Users have learnt to say no to their passwords.

D. Users misunderstand the meaning of passwords.

2.How is the key part of the Trust API generated?

A. By taking one metric at a time.

B. By combining various metrics.

C. By developing security systems.

D. By analyzing complex passwords.

3.What can we know about the Trust system from the text?

A. It needs to be improved in the future.

B. It hasn’t been proven to be effective.

C. It will be used on Android devices first.

D. It is secure and convenient for the users.

4.What would be the best title for the text?

A. How does Google develop the Trust API?

B. Will the Trust API meet the users’ needs?

C. Will passwords soon be a thing of the past?

D. How do passwords protect personal information?

Subject: Bonjour!

Bonjour! (That means hello in French.)

We hope you all had a great summer. Ours was a lot of fun. We have seen so many new things and met so many wonderful people. The French gave us a warm welcome and helped us get used to living here soon. We have so many things to share with all of you. We are going to send you more emails, but here are the best parts of our holiday in France so far.

We had a fantastic time seeing the Tour de France this summer. It is the most famous bicycle race in the world. The riders travel more than two thousand miles in about a month! We got a quick look at the riders as they sped past! After the race, our family rented bikes, and rode along part of the route that the cyclists used.

A few of you asked whether the French really eat snails(蜗牛). The answer is yes. We went out to dinner the other day, and our parents ordered some. We each tried one and it didn’t taste too bad. The snails, called escargots, are served with lots of butter. They feel a little rubbery when you bite into them, but they don’t really have much taste. Mum’s favourite food here is the French pastries. Dad loves the red wine. Our favourite is the fresh bread from the shop down the street.

We went to visit the Eiffel Tower a few weeks ago. We went all the way to the top. It was a sunny day, so we could see for miles and miles into the distance. Dad doesn’t like heights, so he stayed at the bottom of the tower and took pictures from the ground.

We miss all of you a lot. Write back to us and let us know what is new at home.

Au revoir! (Can you guess what that means in French?)
