Hundreds of students from around the world gathered in New York City last week for the Microsoft Imagine Cup finals. They came to present their ideas for using technology to solve world problems.

Microsoft education director Suzi Levine says the nine-year-old program began mainly as a competition to create technology.

SUZI LEVINE: "When we realized that students really actually want to have a purpose for what they're creating, we introduced the idea of inspiring them with the UN Millennium Development Goals and suggesting that they use those for their muse(灵感). "This past year we also rolled out something called the Imagine Cup Solve This library(创新杯求解计划知识库), where IGOs, NGOs and nonprofits can submit some of the technical challenges that they would like students to consider for their solutions."

Microsoft says over 350,000 high school and college students registered for this year's competition. Judges chose more than four hundred of them to attend the finals.

 SUZI LEVINE: "One from Thailand was called NewKrean, where they created a Windows Phone 7 application that allows you to broadcast your location to your social network of friends so that you can be more easily rescued." They named their application Terra.

Suzi Levine says there were also ideas from Egypt inspired by the revolution that overthrew president Hosni Mubarak in February.

SUZI LEVINE: "One was to use Bluetooth as sort of a Twitter equivalent so that if the government shuts down the Internet, you actually can still have a massive social distribution."

Students competed in nine categories. For example, in software design the top prize of twenty-five thousand dollars went to Team Hermes from Ireland. The students developed a device for cars to collect information on road conditions, driving behavior and traffic incidents.

A team from Taiwan's National Tsing Hua University won first place in the embedded(内嵌的) development category. They developed a network of wireless devices to help plot the safest escape routes during a fire.

Next year's awards ceremony will take place in Australia. Registration for Imagine Cup twenty-twelve opened Friday. Also, Microsoft announced plans for a three million dollar program to help Imagine Cup winners further develop their projects.

1.Which of the following is true ?

A. The program is sponsored by Microsoft.

B .Next year, the awards ceremony will be held in New York City.

C. Any high school or college student can attend the finals.

D. The initial purpose of the program is to solve world problems using technology.

B. Microsoft sets up a library for the students who want to achieve their goals.

C. IGOs, NGOs and nonprofits also provide help for the students.

D. Microsoft takes effective measures to inspire the students.

3.What does the underlined word “overthrew ” in Paragraph 6 mean ?

Miss Gogers taught physics in a New York school. Last month she explained to one of her classes about sound, and she decided to test them to see how successful she had been in her explanation. She said to them, “Now I have a brother in Los Angeles. If I was calling him on the phone and at the same time you were 75 feet away, listening to me from across the street, which of you would hear what I said earlier, my brother or you and for what reason?”

Tom at once answered, “Your brother. Because electricity travels faster than sound waves.” “That's every good,” Miss Gogers answered; but then one of the girls raised her hand, and Miss Gogers said. “Yes, Kate.”

This is a part from US President Barack Obama’s speech on May 14 at Bamard College in New York.

… My last piece of advice – this is simple, but perhaps most important: 36. Nothing worthwhile is easy. No one of achievement has avoided failure – sometimes catastrophic failures. But they keep at it. They learn from mistakes. They don’t 37.

When I first arrived on this 38, I was with little money, fewer options. But it was here that I tried to find my place in this world. I knew I wanted to make a difference, but it was 39 how in fact I’d go about it. But I wanted to do my part to 40 a better world.

So even as I worked after graduation in a few 41 jobs here in New York, even as I went from motley (鱼龙混杂的)apartment to motley apartment, I 42.

… And I wish I could say that this perseverance came from some innate (天生的)toughness in me. But the truth is, it was 43. I got it from 44 the people who raised me. I grew up as the son of a single mom who struggled to put herself through 45 and make ends meet. She had a marriage that fell apart; 46 went on food stamps at one point to help us 47. But she didn’t quit. And she earned her degree, and made sure that 48 scholarships and hard work, my sister and I earned 49.

And 50, I met a woman who was assigned to advise me on my first summer job at a law firm. And she gave me such good advice that I married her. And Michelle and I gave everything we had to balance our careers and a 51 family. We made that marriage work.

… So 52 it’s starting a business, or running for office, or 53 an amazing family, remember that making your 54  on the world is hard. It takes patience. It takes commitment. It comes with plenty of 55 and it comes with plenty of failures.

RIDING in school buses in the early morning,then sitting in poorly lit classrooms,are the main reasons students have trouble getting to sleep at night,according to new research.

Teenagers,like everyone else,need bright light in the morning to allow their circadian rhythms(生理节奏)to get into step with nature's cycles of day and night.

If they don't get blue 1ight in the morning,they get to sleep an average of six minutes later at night,until their bodies are completely out of sync(同步) with the school day,researchers from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York said last month.

The finding was made by fitting goggles(护目镜)that block blue light from the sun to a group of students.The researchers discovered that their circadian rhythms were greatly affected.

Parents and teachers have been complaining in recent years that teens stay up too late at night,then fall asleep in class the next morning and do poorly in school.The new findings provide a possible explanation for the problem.

At the root of the research is the circadian rhythm, the body's natural sleep and waking cycle.Even though the Earth makes a full rotation(旋转)in 24 hours,the body's circadian cycle is about 24 hours and six minutes 1ong.The cycle is mediated(调节)by a chemical called melatonin(褪黑激素).The body starts to produce it about two hours before it is time to sleep and, in the absence of blue 1ight,the body produces about six minutes later each day.

In the study, the researchers studied 11 students at Smith Middle School in New York, which was designed so that a lot of sunlight  reaches classrooms.

On a Friday night,the researchers measured what time the 11 students’ bodies began releasing melatonin.On Monday morning,the students were sent to school with orange goggles that blocked most blue light from their eyes to mimic(模拟) the conditions found in many---if not most--schools.

By the end of the week,the students were releasing melatonin 30 minutes 1ater in the evening---an average of six minutes a day--and going to sleep correspondingly(相应的) later.

“This is our first field study,”said lead author Mariana G.Figueiro.He said they would like to repeat it in larger studies and for longer periods of time。

If the findings are repeated,a variety of solutions are available.Ideally, new schools would be built to allow more natural sunlight into the classrooms.Students could also be exposed to more sunlight outside.

68. According to the findings related in this article, many teenagers stay up late because_______

A. they lack melatonin in their bodies

B. they have to get up so early to catch the school bus

C. their circadian rhythms are in disorder

D. they do not get enough blue light in the morning

69. According to the findings, a student who normally slept at 10:00 pm, but who spent 10 days in a poorly lit classroom, would probably be falling asleep at___________after the period.

A. 12:00pm   B. 11:30pm   C. 11:00pm   D. 10:00pm

70. What does the article tell us?

A. Unlike adults, teenagers tend to feel sleepy during daytime.

B. The sunlight is the only thing that can affect our circadian rhythms.

C. If the findings prove correct, solutions could be found to teen sleeping problems.

D. Most schools have small windows and the classrooms are poorly lit.

71. The main point of the article is to___________

A. warn teenagers not to stay up late or sleep in class

B. report on some new findings related to teenagers' sleeping problems

C. give suggestions on how to build schools

D. advertise goggles which can protect the eyes from the sun
