4.When an elementary school teacher in Philadelphia nicknamed Will Smith"The Prince",she didn't know how famous that nickname would become.Young Will had such a smooth way of talking that his teachers said he sounded as if he were born of royalty(高贵).
Will was interested in music,especially rap music.He began rapping when he was 12years old.Although he soon became good enough to make a recording,Will hesitated to do so.At that time,rap music featured a lot of violence.Will was against violence in songs.He could see that violence had a negative effect on many young listeners.
As he grew older,Will's charm and sense of humor impressed many people.He was offered acting jobs and soon became well-known in his television sitcom (情景喜剧),The Fresh Prince of Bel Air.The show was successful,and Will lived up to his nickname.Will's acting career led to starring roles in major motion pictures.Independence Day which starred Will Smith,earned more money than any movie in 1996.The following year,Men in Black earned the most money in 1997.The soundtrack(原声带) from Men in Black gave Will fame as a recording artist.He began mixing his interests,music and acting.His new Men in Black rock video won the MTV Music Award,while his next film,Enemy of the State,thrilled (使兴奋) adventure seekers.
Although Will has enjoyed great success in his acting career,music is still his first love.He finds singing and writing lyrics much more challenging than acting.Although Will's sense of humor is evident in his music,he often writes songs with meaning and purpose.Just the Two of Us is a song he wrote for his young son.Will wants his son to know something about him when he is older.Family and friends are very important to Will.They are what encourage him to continue in his career.

9.It'll be an ordinary morning,like all the others.But instead of being woken up by the buzzing of an alarm clock,you'll be roused by the smell of freshly made coffee,light entering your room as the curtains open automatically,and a gentle back massage provided by your high-tech bed.
This is what a typical person's life will be like two decades from now,according to The Guardian.Want to know more?
After you get up,your apartment will be like an electronic orchestra with you as the conductor.With simple moves of your hand and spoken instructions,you'll be able to control your apartment's temperature,humidity,music and lighting.You'll be able to look through the day's news on translucent (半透明的)screens while your breakfast waits for you in the automatic oven.
As you move into your kitchen,maybe you will stub your toe on the edge of a cabinet.You'll grab your cell phone and open the diagnostics app.Inside your phone there will be a tiny microchip that uses X-ray waves to scan your body.The scan will reveal that your toe is just bruised,not broken,which will convince you not to see a doctor.
After breakfast,your driverless car will take you to work.While you drive,your central computer system will suggest a list of chores your housekeeping robots could see to today and it will also remind you to buy a gift for your mother's upcoming birthday.
As you can see,with the help of advanced technologies,our lives will be more efficient.Technology will mitigate our forgetfulness and free us of many small burdens that distract us,such as buying a ticket or trying to remember our kids'parent-teacher meeting.Our brain will therefore be able to focus on more important things like preparing for a presentation or doing"deep thinking".
However,the development of technology might have some shortcomings as well.By 2033,we'll be relying heavily on the virtual world,which will mean that all of our data will be stored in the cloud,a remote digital storage system with near limitless capacity.That will increase the possibility of someone else accessing,sharing or manipulating (操控) our personal information.

67.What might be the author's purpose in writing the text?B.
A.To stress the importance of developing technology.
B.To describe how advanced technologies will affect our future lives.
C.To introduce one new invention that will benefit our future lives.
D.To remind people not to depend too much on computers.
68.According to the text,in two decades,C.

16.It was the afternoon of December 24,the day before Christmas;and as the newest doctor in our office,I had to work.The only thingt brightened my tha day was the beautifully decorated Christmas tree in our waiting room and a gift sent to me by a fellow I was dating-a dozen long-stemmed red roses.
As I was cleaning my office,I was told a lady urgently needed to speak with me.As I stepped out,I noticed a young,tired-looking woman with a baby in her arms.Nervously,she explained that her husband-a prisoner in a nearby prison-was my next patient.She told me she wasn't allowed to visit her husband in prison and that he had never seen his son.Her request was for me to let the boy's father sit in the waiting room with her as long as possible before I called him for his appointment.Since my schedule wasn't full,I agreed.After all,it was Christmas Eve.
A short time later,her husband arrived-with chains on his feet and hands,and two armed guards as bodyguards.The woman's tired face lit up like our little Christmas tree when her husband took a seat beside her.I kept glancing out to watch them laugh,cry and share their child.After almost an hour,I called the prisoner back to my office.The patient seemed like a gentle and modest man.I wondered what he possibly could have done to be held under such conditions.I tried to make him as comfortable as possible.
At the end of the appointment,I wished him a Merry Christmas-a difficult thing to say to a man headed back to prison.He smiled and thanked me.He also said he felt saddened by the fact he hadn't been able to get his wife anything for Christmas.On hearing this,I was inspired with a wonderful idea.
I'll never forget the look on both their faces as the prisoner gave his wife the beautiful,long-stemmed roses.I'm not sure who experienced the most joy-the husband in giving,the wife in receiving,or myself in having the opportunity to share in this special moment.

13.I came to study in the United States a year ago.Yet I did not know the real American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and a lawyer.
After the accident,my roommate called a doctor for me.I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day.But the next day,he asked me to pay him 200 for what he had done.I was very surprised.He said he had a good reason to charge me.And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible(负责) for my injury,I'd have to have a good lawyer.'And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer.Now that he had helped me find a good doctor,it was only fair that I should pay him.
     But every day I went to see the doctor,I had to wait about 50 minutes.He would see two or three patients at the same time,and often stop treating one so as to see another.Yet I was charged   115 each time.The final examination report consisted of ten lines,and it cost me  215.
     My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met.But after that he avoided seeing me at all.He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident,yet he hardly did anything.He simply waited to collect his money.He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss him.And he made me pay him  770.
    Now I had to act as my own lawyer.Due to my inexperience,I told the insurance(保险) company the date I was leaving America.Knowing that,they played for time…and I left without getting a cent.
