For many people.leisure time is an opportunity to get outdoors,have some fun and meet interesting people.Add two pieces of advanced 21st century technology—global positioning system (GPS) devices and the Internet—to get "geocaching".

The word geocaching comes from “geo” (earth) and “cache” (hidden storage).Geocachers log onto a website to find information about the location of a cache—usually a waterproof plastic box containing small items such as toys and CDs—along with a notebook where “finders” can enter comments and learn about the cache “owner”,the person who created and hid the cache.Finders may take any of the items in the cache but are expected to replace them with something of similar value.They then visit the website again and write a message to the owner.

Geocaching became possible on May 1,2000,when a satellite system developed by the U.S.Department of Defense was made public.Using an inexpensive GPS device,anyone on earth can send a signal to the satellites and receive information about their position.This is basically a high-tech version of orienteering,the traditional pastime which uses maps and compasses instead of GPS to determine one’s location.

Geocachers are a very considerate group.Owners carefully choose a cache’s location to give finders an enjoyable experience,such as a beautiful view or a good campsite.They also consider the environmental impact of their cache since it could result in an increased number of visitors to an area.As for the content of the caches,owners and finders must only use items that are suitable for the whole family,as caches are found by geocachers of all ages.

1.According to the passage,geocaching is_______.

A. an outdoor leisure activity

B. a new type of technology

C. a game used to teach geography

D. a program to protect environment

2.How can finders learn about the cache owners?

A. By meeting them. B. By going to a website.

C. From the notebook. D. From the satellite.

3.Which of the following is NOT used in geocaching?

A. A GPS device. B. A compass.

C. A plastic container. D. The Internet.

4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Most geocachers are adults.

B. Any item can be placed in the caches.

C. The caches should be put in a remote place.

D. Geocachers try to avoid damaging the environment.

The rise in smartphones (智能手机) among young people may be having a direct effect on how successful they become as adults.

Research from the University of Nebraska Lincoln has discovered university students check their phones 11 times per lesson on average, and more than 80 percent believe this tech addiction is interfering with their learning.

A quarter of students across five American states also blamed poor grades in exams specifically on the fact that they used mobile devices when they should have been concentrating and revising and these grades could determine the jobs they end up going into.

Barney McCoy, an associate professor of broadcasting at the university, surveyed 777 students at six universities across five states about how they used digital devices in the classroom.

The students were from UNL, the University of Nebraska Lincoln at Omaha in Nebraska, Morningside College in Iowa, the University of North Carolina, the University of Kansas and the University of Mississippi.

Around two thirds said they used phones, tablets and laptops for "non-classroom purposes" up to ten times during a typical university day, while 15 percent admitted this figure was closer to 30 times.

Among the top reasons why 55 percent of students checked their devices so regularly were staying connected and fighting boredom. Less than half said the devices were used for classwork.

Texting was the most popular distraction (娱乐) technique at 86 percent, while 68 percent said they used their phones to check personal emails. Two thirds used social networks, 38 percent surfed the web and 8 percent admitted playing games when they should have been studying.

Despite eight out of ten students admitting their devices were distracting, fewer than five percent considered it to be a "very big" distraction.

"I don’t think students necessarily think it’s a big problem," said McCoy. "They think it’s part of their lives."

1.The majority of the students think that using smartphones __________.

A. helps to improve their grades

B. contributes to their poor grades

C. has a bad effect on their study

D. determines their jobs in the future

2. How many students surveyed used digital devices for "non-classroom purposes" about 30 times during a day?

A. About 518. B. About 116.

C. About 427. D. Less than 388.

3. Which of the following is TRUE?

A. Barney McCoy surveyed 777 students at the university he works in.

B. A minority of the students said they used digital devices for classwork.

C. Around two thirds admitted they used digital devices because lessons were boring.

D. Barney McCoy doesn’t think students’ using digital devices is a big problem.

4.The text is most likely to be found in a section about __________.

A. successful people B. political systems

(2016·浙江)A scientist working at her lab bench and a six-month-old baby playing with his food might seem to have little in common. After all, the scientist is engaged in serious research to uncover the very nature of the physical world, and the baby is, well, just playing…right? Perhaps, but some developmental psychologists(心理学家) have argued that this "play" is more like a scientific investigation than one might think.

Take a closer look at the baby playing at the table. Each time the bowl of rice is pushed over the table edge, it falls to the ground — and, in the process, it brings out important evidence about how physical objects interact (相互作用): bowls of rice do not float in mid-air, but require support to remain stable. It is likely that babies are not born knowing this basic fact of the universe; nor are they ever clearly taught it. Instead, babies may form an understanding of object support through repeated experiments and then build on this knowledge to learn even more about how objects interact. Though their ranges and tools differ, the baby’s investigation and the scientist’s experiment appear to share the same aim(to learn about the natural world), overall approach (gathering direct evidence from the world), and logic (are my observations what I expected?).

Some psychologists suggest that young children learn about more than just the physical world in this way—that they investigate human psychology and the rules of language using similar means. For example, it may only be through repeated experiments, evidence gathering, and finally overturning a theory, that a baby will come to accept the idea that other people can have different views and desires from what he or she has, for example, unlike the child, Mommy actually doesn’t like Dove chocolate.

Viewing childhood development as a scientific investigation throws light on how children learn, but it also offers an inspiring look at science and scientists. Why do young children and scientists seem to be so much alike? Psychologists have suggested that science as an effort—the desire to explore, explain, and understand our world — is simply something that comes from our babyhood. Perhaps evolution (进化) provided human babies with curiosity and a natural drive to explain their worlds, and adult scientists simply make use of the same drive that served them as children. The same cognitive (认知的) systems that make young children feel good about figuring something out may have been adopted by adult scientists. As some psychologists put it," It is not that children are little scientists but that scientists are big children."
