One of my happiest childhood memories were having dinner with my parents and two sisters. As a result, found that we seldom had a chance to get together, then we decided we would set aside three evenings the week for a sit-down dinner. First we tried setting three fixed days for our experiment—Mondays, Wednesdays or Fridays. After a couple of week of trying this plan, almost everyone was unhappy. For a while, the kids began to resist the idea. They said they would rather to spend the time with their friends or take part in some activities. Gradual, though, they began to see these evenings together for a very different way. We laughed a lot and we discussed about each other’s problems. Since a few months, we all felt that we had been able to build much strong relationships with the family than we had before.

Robots make me nervous—especially the ones which seem to think for themselves. I was embarrassed to admit this till I heard that Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, felt the same way.

Gates said in an interview with the social networking and news website Reddit: “I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence. First the machines will do a lot of jobs for us and not be super intelligent．That should be positive if we manage well. A few decades after that though the intelligence is strong enough to be a concern.”

Well, maybe I don’t have to worry about my computer and kitchen equipment yet. After I use them I can always pull the plug. But in the future, machines might find a way to prevent us from switching them off. There’s a terrible thought!

Maybe the problem with computers too clever for us is not that they are evil like some we’ve seen in sci-fi movies. What could put us in danger is that they might be too efficient. That’s what philosopher Nick Bostrom from Oxford University believes. He says that machines are indifferent (漠然) to humans and in pursuit of their own goals，the destruction of people might be just additional damage. Bostrom gives us an example: A machine which might have as its only goal to produce as many paperclips as possible might look at human bodies as extra material for paperclips and go after you. Because it is, well, a machine, it would not take pity on you.

It’s a good thing that American writer Isaac Asimov thought about how far robots can go and left us his three rules of robotics. They state that a robot may not hurt a human being or allow the human being to come to harm.

I’m glad my machines at home are “dumb”. All my cleaner wants to take over is the carpet in my living room. Let’s hope they don’t create an appliance which wants to take over the world!.

Walt Disney World is banning selfie-sticks from its theme parks because selfie-sticks have become a growing safety concern for both our guests and cast," Disney World spokeswoman Kim Prunty said.

Under a new policy, which takes effect Tuesday, the poles won’t make it past the bag check at any Disney World theme park. The sticks also won't be allowed in Disney World water parks or Disney Quest, a gaming attraction at Downtown Disney. Selfie-sticks will also become forbidden at Disneyland Resort in California on June 30. The prohibition begins at Disney's parks in Paris and Hong Kong on July 1.

Guests will be checked for the equipment during the routine bag check that happens near the parks' entrances. They will have an option of turning in their selfie-sticks for pick-up later or to go back to their cars or hotel rooms to keep them. Visitors will be told of the policy in locations such as the parking lots and at the resort's hotels. The prohibition will be added to the park rules post on Disney World's website.

The issue has been building at Disney. Previously, the sticks were prohibited from its rides, and "no selfie-sticks" signs were at select rides, such as Big Thunder Mountain Railroad at Magic Kingdom. Cast members have given oral warnings to rule breakers.

Selfie-stick users put smartphones and cameras on the ends of poles to extend their reach, frequently capturing theme-park moments through self-portraits. The tools have been banned in public places — including some museums and stadiums — worldwide for obstructing views or causing safety issues.

Disney World already prohibits items such as skateboards, inline skates, wagon, folding chairs and glass containers, according to its official website, which also lists “other items that we determine may be harmful.”

Universal Orlando has banned selfie-sticks and other loose items from certain thrill rides at Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure theme parks, but it has not set park wide bans.

1.Which of the following objects has already been banned in Disney theme parks before the new policy takes effect?

A. smart phonesB. folding chairs

C. camerasD. containers

2.According to the ban, if the guests are found carrying selfie-sticks during the routine bagcheck, they may __________.

A. abandon them at the bag check

B. get fined and pick them up later

C. turn them in to the police

D. put them in the trunk of their cars

3.The underlined word in the fifth paragraph probably means __________.

A. changingB. broadeningC. blockingD. narrowing

4.According to the passage, it can be inferred that __________.

A. the ban on the use of selfie-sticks is aimed at ensuring security

B. previously guests can take photos with selfie-sticks on thrill rides

C. the staff in Disneyland will inform visitors of the ban only orally

D. Universal Orlando has banned selfie-sticks parkwide

The 1920s was a decade of wealth, decadence(堕落) and social changes. They were known as the Roaring Twenties, and the best place to experience this exciting time was New York City. But what was it really like?

Prohibition

In 1919, a new law in the US known as Prohibition made it illegal to buy and sell alcohol. But Prohibition didn’t stop people drinking; it just drove the sale of strong alcoholic drink underground. Bootleggers(走私贩) waited off the coast of New York after dark and brought illegal alcohol into the city.

Jazz

Jazz was the music of New York in the 1920s. In fact, the decade is called Jazz Age. The best place to listen to this new form of music was the Cotton Club in Harlem. All the great jazz musicians played at the Cotton Club, including Louis Armstrong, Dizzy Gillespie and Duke Ellington. Also, in 1942 George Gershwin composed the jazz—influenced Rhapsody in Blue. The piece has been called “a musical portrait of New York” and was used by Woody Allen in his film Manhattan.

Art Deco

Art Deco was the most popular style of the 1920s, with bright colors and geometric designs; it can be seen in the art, architecture and inside designs of the period. New York is full of Art Deco buildings, but the most famous ones are the Chrysler Building (built between 1928 and 1930) and the Empire State Building (built between 1930 and 1931).

The Great Depression

On 29th October, 1929, the Roaring Twenties came to a dramatic end. On that day (known as “Black Tuesday”), the US stock market crashed, causing the Great Depression. The economic downturn lasted ten years and affected most of the Western world. Unemployment in America reached 25% and the country didn’t recover until after World War II.

1.We know from the passage that in 1919 people ________ alcohol in the US.

A. began to buy and sellB. stopped producing

C. completely stopped tradingD. secretly bought and sold

2.The 1920s is called _________.

A. Country Music TimeB. Jazz Age

C. Folk Music AgeD. Pop Age

3.We infer from the passage that the US _________ in the year 1930.

A. was in a bad economic state

B. was in good economic condition

C. developed at a rapid speed

D. had many dramatic plays

I was desperately nervous about becoming car-free. But eight months ago our car was hit by a passing vehicle and it was destroyed. No problem, I thought: we’ll buy another. But the insurance payout didn’t even begin to cover the costs of buying a new car—I worked out that, with the loan (贷款) we’d need plus petrol, insurance, parking permits and tax, we would make a payment as much as £600 a month.

And that’s when I had my fancy idea. Why not just give up having a car at all? I live in London. We have a railway station behind our house, a tube station 10 minutes’ walk away, and a bus stop at the end of the street. A new car club had just opened in our area, and one of its shiny little red Peugeots was parked nearby. If any family in Britain could live without a car, I reasoned, then surely we were that family.

But my new car-free idea, sadly, wasn’t shared by my family. My teenage daughters were horrified. What would their friends think about our family being “too poor to afford a car”? (I wasn’t that bothered what they thought, and I suggested the girls should take the same approach.)

My friends, too, were astonished at our plan. What would happen if someone got seriously ill overnight and needed to go to hospital? (an ambulance) How would the children get to and from their many events? (buses and trains) People smiled as though this was another of my mad ideas, before saying they were sure I’d soon realize that a car was a necessity.

Eight months on, I wonder whether we’ll ever own a car again. The idea that you “have to” own a car, especially if you live in a city, is all in the mind. I live—and many other citizens do too—in a place that has never been better served by public transport, and yet car ownership has never been higher. We worry about rising car costs, but we’d be better off asking something much more basic: do I really need a car? Certainly the answer is no, and I’m a lot richer because I dared to ask the question.

1.The author decided to live a car-free life partly because ______.

A. he was hurt in a terrible car accident

B. most families chose to go car-free

C. the traffic jam was unbearable for him

D. the cost of a new car was too much

2.What is the attitude of the author’s family toward his plan?

A. Disapproving.B. Supportive.

C. Unconcerned.D. Optimistic.

3.What did the author suggest his daughters do about their friends’ opinion?

A. Take their advice.B. Argue against it.

C. Leave it alone.D. Think it over.

4.What conclusion did the author draw after the eight-month car-free life?

A. Life without a car is a little bit hard.

B. Life cannot go without a car.

C. A car-free life does not suit everyone.

D. His life gets improved without a car.

Microsoft founder Bill Gates has opened up about being a parent, stating that 13 is an appropriate age for a child’s first cell phone.

The 57-year-old, father-of-three, revealed on the Today Show that his children Jennifer and Rory were not allowed phones until their thirteenth birthday and his youngest daughter Phoebe is still waiting for one.

“We’ve chosen in our family that it’s 13 where you get a phone,” the self-made billionaire explained.

He said as a result his children often return home from school complaining:“All the other kids have it. I’m the only one without it, and it’s so embarrassing.”

Asked if he keeps passwords to his son and daughters’ email and Facebook accounts, Mr Gates said that he doesn’t for Jennifer, 16, who he describes as “independent”.

He admitted that monitoring online activity is “a very tricky issue for parents now.”

Despite their vast wealth Mr and Mrs Gates, who live in Lake Medina, just outside Seattle, Washington, have said they want to give their children as normal an upbringing as possible.

It was previously reported that their youngsters have to complete household chores and are given a modest amount of pocket money.

And in 2010 Mr Gates said that he intended to give most of his $ 61 billion fortune away rather than hand it down. “That wouldn’t be good either for my kids or society,” he said.

Also during the “Today” Interview with host Matt Lauer, Mr Gates, who stepped down from Microsoft in 2008 to concentrate on philanthropy (慈善事业) , said that helping others gives him the same excitement as creating software.

“What you really feel is what you’ve achieved. If a piece of software gets out there and lots of people love it－it lets them get their work done in better ways－that’s exciting,” he explained.

1.Bill Gates will not let his children own a cell phone ________.

A. until they reach the age of 13

B. if they don’t really need one

C. unless they do some housework

D. before they become independent

2.Which of the following is true about Bill Gates’ children?

A. All his children now have cell phones.

B. Phoebe has her own cell phone.

C. They are not given any pocket money.

D. Jennifer can use the Internet freely.

3.What does the underlined word “That” refer to in the text?

A. Being a parent as a billionaire.

B. Handing all his money down to his children.

C. Allowing his children to have their phones.

D. Giving away all his money to good causes.

4.What is the text mainly about?

A. How Bill Gates made himself a billionaire.

B. How Bill Gates deals with his money.

C. How Bill Gates managed his business.

D. How Bill Gates brings up his children.

Dear Liu Jun,

How are you? I have studied in Detroit for almost one year, when the teachers and students are very friend with me. With their help, I’ve made a great progress in my studies. The climate isn’t what I expect. I have never gone through such a cold winter. However, I have gradually adapted me to it. Detroit, whose industry is famous, belongs to the developed world. All kind of lights on at night, Detroit is extreme beautiful. The people there live at a fast pace. They are always on the go, so they have less time chat with each other.

How is everything with you? I’d like to hear about you soon.

Yours,

Li Hua
