Hardly can we forget the time when our society faced the threat from the life-and death disease---SARS．Yet，even during those dreadful times，some suffering people remained optimistic．Instead of wearing white masks，some people turned to colorful ones，and thus displayed a happy mood．And some creative people dubbed SARS to mean"SMILE AND REMAIN SMILING．"People who survive these kinds of circumstances decide in their minds to carry on in spite of the hardships．
Although we cannot choose our appearance，inborn gifts and even avoid unexpected disasters and adversities （逆境），we do have the right to choose to live optimistically，to love our lives，to have dreams，and to cherish hopes．
Every morning when we get up，we have a choice of how we want to approach life that day．

20．A Leap（跳跃）to HonorLeaping on a narrow balance beam（平衡木） is not easy．But Lola Walter，a 13-year-old gymnast，is an expert at it．
To perfect her skills，Lola （41）Cfor four hours a day，five days a week．At the state championships in March，she finished seventh out of 16girls．
That's especially impressive，（42）Ashe is legally blind，born with a rare condition that causes her eyes to shift constantly．She often sees double and can't （43）Ahow far away things are．

She likes the determination it takes to do the sport．Her biggest （49）Cis the balance beam．Because she has double vision，she often sees two beams．She must use her sense of touch to help her during her routine．Sometimes she even closes her eyes．"You have to（50）Dyour mind that it'll take you where you want to go．"says Lola．
To be a top-level gymnast，one must be brave．The beam is probably the most （51）Afor anyone because it's four inches wide．At the state competition，Lola didn't fall （52）Cthe beam．In fact，she got an 8.1out of 10----her highest score yet．
Lola doesn't want to be （53）Bdifferently from the other girls on her team．At the competitions，the judges don't know about her vision（54）D．She doesn't tell them，because she doesn't think they need to know．Her mom is amazed by her （55）Aattitude．

1．Lightning flashed through the darkness over Sibson's bedroom skylight（天窗）．Sibson was shaken by a clap of thunder （41）Dhe knew what was happening．The storm had moved directly （42）Ahis two-story wooden house．Then he heard the smoke alarm beeping．
Sibson rushed down the stairs barefoot to （43）A； he opened the door to the basement（地下室），and flames （44）C out．Sibson ran back upstairs to call 911from his bedroom．"I felt （45）Dbecause the room had a separate outdoor stairway，"he explains．
But the phone didn't work，and when he tried to go down the outdoor stairway，he was （46）Bby a wall of flames．Sibson realized he was trapped（困住）．
Sibson's house was three kilometers （47）C the main road and was so well hidden by trees that he knew calling for help would be （48）B．
Up a hill nearby lived Sibson's neighbor，Huggons．He was lying in bed when something like a smoke alarm （49）D his ears．He jumped out of bed，took his  （50）Aand flashlight，and headed down the hillside toward the （51）C．That was when he saw the rolling heavy smoke．
Huggons dialed 911，and the operator warned him not to（52）Bthe house．But Huggons said，"There is no way I am going to listen to Sibson （53）Aand die in that fire．"
"Anyone there？"Huggons called out．Then he heard"Help!I'm trapped!"coming from the second floor balcony（阳台）．He entered the house，but soon had to run back to catch his（54）A．
After one more （55）Dinside the house，Huggons gave up and （56）Caround back．
The wind parted the smoke just  （57）B for him to catch sight of Sibson．But there was no way to get to him．He （58）Cthe flashlight into the woods and noticed a ladder．He took it over to the balcony and （59）DSibson down just as the second floor of the house fell off．
Sibson is still （60）Dwhen he tells the story．"I was alone that night，"he says．"Then I heard the most beautiful sound in my life．It was Huggons．"

18．With the coming of big data age，data science is supposed to be starved for，of which the adaption can point a profound change in corporate competitiveness．Companies，both born in the digital era and traditional world are showing off their skills in data science．Therefore，it seems to have been creating a great demand for the experts of this type．
Mr Carlos Guestrin，machine learning professor from University of Washington argues that all software applications will need inbuilt intelligence within five years，making data scientists-people trained to analyze large bodies of information-key workers in this emerging"cognitive"technology economy．There are already critical applications that depend on machine learning，a subfield of data science，led by recommendation programs，fraud detection systems，forecasting tools and applications for predicting customer behavior．
Many companies that are born digital-particularly internet companies that have a great number of real-time customer interactions to handle-are all-in when it comes to data science．Pinterest，for instance，maintains more than 100 machine learning models that could be applied to different classes of problems，and it constantly fields requests from managers eager to use this resource to deal with their business problem．
The factors weighing on many traditional companies will be the high cost of mounting a serious machine-learning operation．Netflix is estimated to spend﹩150m a year on a single application and the total bill is probably four times that once all its uses of the technology are taken into account．
Another problem for many non-technology companies is talent．Of the computer science experts who use Kaggle，only about 1，000 have deep learning skills，compared to 100，000who can apply other machine learning techniques，says Mr Goldbloom．He adds that even some big companies of this type are often reluctant to expand their pay scales to hire the top talent in this field．
The biggest barrier to adapting to the coming era of"smart"applications，however，is likely to be cultural．Some companies，such as General Electric，have been building their own Silicon Valley presence to attract and develop the digital skills they will need．
Despite the obstacles，some may master this difficult transition．But companies that were built，from the beginning，with data science at their center，are likely to represent serious competition．

63．Which one is obstacle for many traditional companies to popularize learning operation？C
A．Technological problem．
B．Expert crisis．
C．High cost．
D．Customer interactions．
64．What can not be inferred from the passage about the machine learning？D
A．Machine learning operations are costly in Netflix．
B．Machine learning plays an important role in existent applications．
C．Machine learning experts are not highly paid in some non-technology companies．
D．Machine learning models are not sufficient to solve business problems in Pinterest．
65．The underlined word in the 3rd paragraph"fields"most probably meansC．
A．avoids  B．createsC．solvesD．classifies
66．Which of the following is the best title for this passage？A
A．Data science：a forefront force in tech business
B．Corporate competition：an obstacle to the transition
C．Machine learning：a key to smart technology
D．Technique experts：a decisive factor of the coming era．
5．Why does gratitude matter？Gratitude doesn't just feel good．（36）DLike other positive emotions，feeling grateful on a regular basis can have a big effect on our lives．Brain Research shows that positive emotions are good for ourbodies，minds，and brains．
Positive emotions help us see more possibilities and take in more information．They increase ourability to develop skills．（37）EPositive emotions balance negative emotions out．People who often feel grateful and appreciative are happier，less stressed，and less depressed．Gratitude is like a U-turn on complaining or thinking about what we don't have．
（38）BWhen we feel grateful，we might also feel happy，calm，joyful，or glad．
Gratitude can lead to positive actions．When we feel grateful for someone's kindness towards us，we may be more likely to do a kindness in return．（39）GThanking people can make it more likely that they'll do a kindness again．
（40）CWhen we feel and express heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to people in our lives，it creates loving bonds，builds trust，and helps you feel closer．
When we make it a habit to feel grateful and appreciative，it increases our awareness of good things as they happen．That set of attitude of gratitude has positive effects on our mood．

A．It might make you suffer a lot．
B．One positive emotion often leads to another．
C．Gratitude helps us build better relationships．
D．Making a habit of gratitude can also be good for us．
E．In addition，they help us to learn and make good decisions．
F．Find out who you appreciate and what the reasons might be．
G．Your gratitude also can have a positive effect on someone else's actions．
15．Positive thinkers don't only live happier lives，and have better health but they are also more likely to reach their goals．（36）GEven if a negative thinker managed to succeed，his life is still going to be tough because he won't be able to enjoy the success he achieved．Then how to become a positive thinker？
●Stay around positive people．
Have you ever felt bad for no reason just because you were around someone who was feeling bad？（37）ESo one of the best ways to stay positive is to spend more time with positive people．
●Reduce the stress in your life．
Stress isn't only harmful to your life but it can also change your opinion of the world．（38）FIf you can spend enough time relaxing and restoring your energy each day，you will become a more positive person．
●Train your mental muscles．
The more you think positively，the more likely your brain structure is going to change and the more naturally positive thoughts will come to you．（39）CThe more you train your mind to think negatively，the more likely you will become a natural negative thinker．
●（40）B
Read about the stories of successful people and watch movies that promote positive thinking．Whenever you get exposed to positive media your mind gets trained to think positively and as a result you will become a positive thinker．Avoid negative media at all costs for they can do the opposite to you．

A．Learn from successful people．
B．Get exposed to positive media．
C．The opposite also happens with negative thinking．
D．Start right now to train your mind on positive thinking．
E．People infect each other with their emotions and beliefs．
F．The more stressed you become，the more likely you are to worry．
G．Negative thinking ruins people's lives and prevents them from succeeding．
2．I'm part of the Roots & Shoots program founded by Dr．Jane Goodall．The program is intended to make and promote positive changes in the world．As Dr．Goodall says，"What you do makes a difference，and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make．"
In Bulgaria，where I live，homeless dogs are everywhere．Many people here turn a blind eye to them．But I cannot ignore the life of a street dog whenever I see one wandering in the street，looking for something to eat．That's why I'm no longer a food waster．When I see wasted food，I always think of a hungry dog climbing to garbage bins，searching for food that people have thrown there．When eating in a restaurant，I'm not afraid to take leftover food to feed stray cats or dogs．
A week ago，I saw a homeless dog around the garbage bins．Immediately I knelt down，spoke to her softly and ran my hands over her．I could see that she had had puppies．I couldn't imagine how she could have been able to care for them．Hours earlier，I'd bagged up a plate of leftover fish．As I unwrapped it，she wagged her tail and sniffed at it．She ate all the fish in no time．
It's sad，isn't it？I can't understand why many of us waste so much and think little of it．These homeless animals have taught me that food is precious．Even when I don't have leftovers with me，I'll take the time to get something from the grocery store to feed them．
I know my power is small，so I hope that next time you see wasted food，do turn it into worthy food．You have the power to save a life!

19．A European Union program is letting blind people experience famous paintings for the first time．It uses three dimensional（3-D）printing to re-create famous paintings so they can be touched．
One painting printed with the new technology is Gustav Klimt's"The Kiss．"It is a popular attraction at the Belvedere Museum in Vienna，Austria．The painting shows a man and a woman standing in a field filled with flowers．They are wearing gold robes and have their arms around each other．The man leans down to kiss the woman．
Klimt finished the painting in 1908．Until now，people who had trouble seeing could not appreciate the artwork．But thanks to the reproduction they can touch the piece and feel the ridges and depressions．Andreas Reichinger started making 3-D versions of artwork in 2010．He said this reproduction was his most difficult project because the couple's robes are so detailed．
Dominika Raditsch is a blind museum visitor．She touched the reproduction．As she moved her hands around it she said，"Exactly，can you see these？There are so many details．"Raditsch said she can imagine what the original painting looks like when she touches the reproduction．"It's somehow round．You can feel it．You can feel it．It comes with it．And in many places it's so smooth．And then I think to myself：it probably shines too!"Raditsch said．
The Belvedere is not the only museum to have 3-D versions of its artwork．Some of the pieces at the Prado，in Madrid，Spain，have reproductions that can be touched．But the piece in Vienna has one special part：It is made with widely available 3-D printing technology．That means one day，blind art fans anywhere in the world could download the source files and print the reproductions themselves．

19．Advice About Stress：Don't Let It Ruin Your Life!
There are many reasons why people suffer from stress．（36）CWe give you advice on how to find the cause or causes of your stress，and more importantly-how to deal with it．
