That year, I was a Junior 2 student. Falling off the stairs hurt me in the head. Almost everyone thought I was dead. But they were wrong. However, it was difficult to get back to normal (正常的) life. I had to leave school and learn everything, walking, talking, and yes, maths.

To help me with that task, Mrs. Pillar volunteered to come to the hospital and later to my house once a week. We began with basic maths skills. As time passed by, I made progress(进步).

I remembered very vividly how she came to my home on Sundays, sat with me at the kitchen table, and threw different coins on the table. She asked me to show her 38 cents, 17 cents, 63 cents. It was challenging (挑战), but she also made it fun.

After a year and a half, I made progress a lot, both in body and mind, to return to school. Seven years later, I graduated (毕业) from the University of Texas at the top of my class .

As years went by, I always kept in touch with Mrs. Pillar. Unluckily, one day my parents told me that Mrs. Pillar was in hospital because she suffered a stroke (中风).

Now it was my turn to help her. Mrs. Pillar lay in bed, unable to speak and know anybody around. I pulled some coins out of my pocket, dropped them on her bed, and asked her to show me 12 cents. The nurse thought that my action was very strange until one day Mrs. Pillar smiled happily as I began working with her - just as she had worked with me years before. She made progress every day and was moved out of ICU and finally out of hospital.

One day, I called to wish her a happy New Year. She spoke into the phone excitedly, "Happy New Year to you and your family，Michael. Thank you for everything you've done for me." I quickly said,"Thank you for everything you've done for me."

Mrs. Pillar was one of my Junior 2 teachers,but she taught me much more about life than only maths.

The late president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela, once said: “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes to his heart.”

Mandela understood that our mother language is a very close thing to us. For people who speak their mother language, it helps them keep their traditions. Their language is the bridge with their ancestors (祖先). And it is also how they think about the future.

So it's a serious thing that a language disappears (消失). Over the last century, more than 400 languages have died out. Some languages are now spoken only by a few people, like Yagan in Chile. Africa and South America are also places where many languages are imperiled (处于危险的).

Why are humans speaking fewer languages than we once did? The answer has something to do with globalization (全球化). Nowadays, it's more useful to speak certain languages—English is one example. This has killed some languages, usually ones spoken by fewer people.

The United Nations has set Feb 21 as International Mother Language Day. This work is very important. As US writer Rita Mae Brown wrote, “Language is the map of the culture. It tells where its people come from and where they are going”.

1.How does the writer introduce (介绍，引入) the topic?

A.By using a famous person’s words. B.By asking difficult questions.

C.By giving good examples. D.By explaining special things.

A.doesn’t go to his head B.can’t explain things better

C.carries certain feelings D.helps talk to their ancestors

A.At the beginning of Paragraph 2 B.At the beginning of Paragraph 3

C.At the beginning of Paragraph 4 D.At the beginning of Paragraph 5

4.What can we infer (推断) from the passage?

A.The US writer Rita Mae Brown does not agree with Nelson Mandela.

B.The United Nations wants people to care more about dying languages.

C.People in Chile do not speak their mother languages any more.

Later this year, Beijing will start the country’s first driverless(无人驾驶 ) subway trains. The Yanfang Line-connecting part of Fangshan district center-will be the first to try out driverless technology.

According to the experts(专家) in public transportation, the new trains will make the underground railway system(系统) better. They will have an upgraded(升级的)operating system. They will reach 80km per hour and carry more than 1,200 passengers.

The development of driverless technology is opening up in other areas of transport(交通工具). Driverless cars have been a dream for many people. And in the past few years, big car companies, including Volkswagen and Toyota, have made lots of studies while they are competing with other companies, such as Google.

But with not racks(轨道) to run on, how will driverless cars be safe? This technology is made up of many sensors(传感器) including radar and GPS. This gives the car an exact position in the world, as well as what’s around it. It also allows the car to see moving objects(目标), like other cars and people.

Pilot-free planes have also become a hot technology topic. Yet while these new kinds of technology are seen as better and safer, they do have problems. They cannot work at all without the help of computers. Just like humans, computers make mistakes-although less often. And like much of technology, it makes many workers lose their jobs. What will happen to the future bus drivers and pilots?

1.Will Beijing start the country’s first driverless subway trains?

2.How many passengers will the driverless subway train carry?

3.What did the big companies do about the driverless technology?

4.Why will driverless cars be safe?

5.What does the writer mainly tell us in the last paragraph?

Margaret Knight was born on February 14, 1838, in Maine. She lived during a time when factories were springing up all over the United States and business were booming. Her father died when she was 10 years old and began working in a textile mill(纺织厂).

When she was 12, Knight saw an accident in which a part of one of the marhines flew off, seriously hurting a worker. So she decided to plan a way to prevent such accidents. Knight designed a safety feature that would stop the machines if something got caught in them. The machine soon became common in textile mills and is still used in some factories now.

Although factories were willing to use her first invention, Knight did not receive much in the way of reward for her effort. Because of her youth and her family's lack of(缺乏)of education, Knight was unable to patent(获得专利)her safety machine to earn money from selling it.

In Knight's day, paper bags were shaped like envelopes(信封), which made them difficult to fill. While working at a paper bag factory, Knight thought of bags with flat, rectangular(长方形的)bottom. Then she tried to invent a machine that would produce them, and she succeeded.

Knight worked for months to perfect her work, but when she asked for a patent, a man named Charles Annan had seen an early model of Knight's idea and had tried to patent the machine as his own.

Knight insisted that the patent should be hers and ended up taking Annan to court(法庭). During the case; Annan said that a woman would not be able to invent such a complex and innovative(创新的)machine. But Knight provided evidence proving that the machine was hers and received patent in 1871.

Knight died in 1914, and one newspaper described her as a "woman Edison". At a time when women's hard work and knowledge were taken too lightly, she proved that women too could develop new ideas that would shape the future of industry.

1.Why didn't Margaret patent her safety machine at first?

A.She had no money to do it. B.She didn't consider it worth her effort.

C.She expected her invention to be of use to all. D.She had no sense of patent at that time.

2.We can infer from Margret's story that at Margret's time________ .

A.women didn't get well protected at work B.women got badly paid at factories

C.women weren't expected to achieve much D.women had no right to invent things

3.Why did the writer write the passage?

C.To encourage women to fight for equal rights. D.To introduce a famous woman inventor in America.
