【题目】Growing strawberries in pots

·The best way to start growing strawberries is to buy pot-grown strawberry plants m spring:5 plants are plenty for a hanging basket and 10 for the average 13 inch-sized pot.

·Plant them immediately in soil-based compost(混合肥料) and they will produce a modest crop in their first year.The second year should see a bumper(特大的)crop,followed by a slightly lower yield(产量)the third summer .Then start again with fresh stock

·Careful watering and feeding are essential If you are to harvest a good crop,you must never let the compost dry out, particularly when the fruit is forming and ripening;if you do.most of your crop will drop off血e bush almost immediately.

·Water well then leave the pots for up to 3 weeks,until they reach the point of drying out be careful not to overwater them during the winter months.

Pruning apple trees

·A one-year-old tree is known as a “maiden”.It has a single stem when purchased.Immediately after planting, cut it back by about half to leave 4 good buds at the base of the stem..This will force growth from the base or the plant during the summer.

·In the second year ,prune in winter by cutting all side branches back by about one-third, Make sure each cut is made cleanly just above an outward-facing bud.In the third and fourth years, new side branches will have emerged from the previous year’s growth.Cut back all these new side branches by a third, pruning to an outward-facing bud.

·By the fifth year the tree should have a well-balanced shape.From then on ,cut back all new branches by one-third in winter.Remove any diseased wood and broken branches, and ensure the centre is open to air circulation

【题目】If the hackings (黑客行为) taught us anything in 2014, it's actually nothing.

Password management firm SplashData released its list of the worst passwords of the year and it's just as terrible as you'd think. The most common leaked password in 2014 was "123456," followed by "password" both topped the list the year before, too.

While numbers were as popular as ever as passwords, sports terms like “baseball" and "football" were used more often. Birthday years were common too (especially 1989, 1990, 1991 and 1992) and names like "Michael", "Jennifer" and "Hunter" are also among the top 100 worst passwords of 2014.

Here's a look at the top 10 worst passwords of the year:

1. 123456 (Unchanged from 2013) 6. 234567890 (Unchanged)

2. password (Unchanged) 7. baseball (New)

3. 12345 (Up 17) 8. dragon (New)

4. 12345678 (Down 1) 9. football (New)

5. qwerty (Down 1) 10. monkey (New)

This year's worst passwords are painfully weak, but what were once considered clever password strategies using symbols, capitalizations, the number 3 in place of the letter "e" are old tricks.

It's now recommended to pick a different password for each account you use you wouldn't use the same key in all of your locks, and the same goes for passwords.

Companies like Facebook, Twitter and Apple are now trying to make hacking more difficult on their services by offering two-factor authentication (认证), which is basically like double locking your door at night. Each time you want to log into (登录)span> that account, the company will send a code to your phone it changes after each login attempt, so hackers would have to be in physical possession of your smartphone to know the code.

【题目】Amy Pankratz spent a few nights in the hospital with her daughter, Isabella, who caught a bad flu. “Lying in bed beside Isabella, I could hear the cries of children in pain, ”says Amy. “It completely broke my heart.

When Isabella was getting well and could leave her room, she wore her prized possession—a “superhero cape(短斗篷)”Amy had sewn to encourage her—and walked into the hallway. The pink cape was an instant hit with the other young patients, who were doing exercise around the nursing station. Then, all the kids were taking turns wearing the cape, giggling, ”Amy says. “These were some of the same children I had heard crying the night before, and here they were playing and having fun—kids just being kids!

From that moment on, Amy began making Comfort Capes for little ones battling with serious illnesses. “I felt God presenting an opportunity, ”she says. “I hoped Comfort Capes can help these kids feel brave, to lift some of the fear away.

Since then, Amy has made and donated more than 5, 000 capes in the United States. Amy usually pays for materials herself, although she accepts donations.

The capes she makes for kids in treatment are different from those her own children have. Before Amy starts to sew she learns what image or character the little boy or girl connects with. I choose the pattern, color and theme specially for each child,” explains Amy.

When she is not sewing, Amy is raising awareness of childhood cancers and looking into ways to get Comfort Capes to more kids who need them, If a cape can help a child, even only for a moment, forget his illness, its worth the time spent sewing, she says.

【1】What made Amy feel sad when she was staying with her daughter in the hospital?

A. Her daughters serious illness.

B. The cries of children in pain.

C. The tiredness from sewing the cape.

D. The illness of children in her daughters room.

【2】What purpose did Amy have when she began making Comfort Capes for sick children?

A. To make them feel warm.

B. To find friends for her daughter.

C. To make them happy and fearless.

D. To raise the awareness of childrens illness.

【3】According to the passage, we can get that the authors attitude toward Amys behaviour is ________.

A. indifferent B. neutral

C. negative D. supportive

【4】Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

A. Turning Sick Kids into Superheroes
