16．When I was growing up，my father and I always had totally different ideas．He thought that college was a waste of time，but for me it was of importance to finish college．He wanted me to work my way to the top as he had done in his field，but I wanted a different life．There was a time when we did not talk with each other．
A few months ago，I heard that my 84-year-old dad was in poor health．When he called and asked whether I could move from Colorado bank to Tennessee to help him，I knew he was seriously ill．I am his only child and so it was time to meet my father's requirement．

It is not important how many fish we catch．It is about enjoying the relationship that we have not had for years．I'm 62and he is 84．When we are on the lake fishing，it is like enjoying life．It is far better to find a way to put the unhappy past behind．I am so lucky to spend the happy time with my father in his last years．Now my heart is filled with love．A smile always graces my lips．

20．Monitoring the mood of a pet dog could be used as an early warning sign that an elderly owner is struggling to cope，a new report has claimed．
Researchers placed movement sensors on dogs to track their behaviour and identified 17 distinct activities，including chewing，barking，sitting and digging．This allowed them to map the normal behaviour of a healthy，happy dog，which means any changes can be monitored and could indicate an issue with their owner．
Nils Hammerla，part of the team from Newcastle University，said，"Humans and dogs have lived together in close relationships for thousands of years，which has led to strong emotional and social mutual bonds．"
"A dog's physical and emotional dependence on their owner means that their wellbeing is likely to reflect that of their owner．Any changes such as the dog being walked less often，perhaps not being fed regularly，or simply demonstrating"unhappy"behaviour could be an early indicator for families that an older relative needs help．This is the first system of its kind which allows us to remotely monitor a dog's behaviour in its natural setting．"
The team of academics，who presented their findings at the 2013 UbiComp conference in Zurich，created a hitech，waterproof dog collar for the study．
Dr Cas Ladha，who led the study，said："A lot of our research is focused on developing intelligent systems that can help older people to live independently for longer．
But developing a system thatreassures family and carers that an older relative is well without intruding on （侵犯） the individual's privacy is difficult．This is just the first step but the idea behind this research is that it would allow us to support people without the need for cameras．"
A range of dogs was used for the study，as the team needed to map distinct behaviours that correlated between different breeds．

A．It can indicate that people aren't well．
B．It can identify different activities of dogs．
C．It monitors an elderly owner without disturbing his privacy．
D．It lets people see the dog's beh avior clearly．
35．Which of the following could be the best title for the text？A

17．We're always looking for well-written reviews of books，music，movies，television shows，websites，video games and other products．When writing a review，concentrate on exactly what you liked or didn't like．Give examples of strengths and weaknesses，be descriptive and provide background information on an author，director，actor or musician，if possible．Find professional reviews in magazines or newspapers and see how reviewers deal with their topic，but be sure to express your own voice in your review．
Grammar Hint for Reviews：When describing a book，movie，album or anything else，use the present tense．
Book Reviews
Discuss an author's technique，strengths and weaknesses instead of focusing on the plot．Does the story flow？Is there a strong sense of character and place？Did you stay up until dawn to finish it？Is it good reading for teenagers？What influence did it have on you and why？If you've read other books by the same author，discuss how this book compares．
Movie Reviews
Think of the major Oscar categories and consider the performances，music，lighting and setting，etc．Do these work together？Did some hold up while others didn't？If the movie is based on a book，discuss whether one is better than the other and why．If the movie is a remake，compare the film to its original．
Remember that a well-written movie review should discuss strengths and weaknesses．Some readers may not have seen a movie yet，so don't give away an exciting scene or the ending!
College Reviews
Begin by providing an overview of the college，including location，size and a description of the campus and/or dorm life．Think about all aspects of your college visit．What academic，athletic and after-class programs are available？What are the students like？What makes the college different from others？Every school has strengths and weaknesses．Be objective．Consider what the school has to offer and who might enjoy or benefit the most from attending there．
