A

Figuring out ways to help

As a 16-year-old American student at Colorado Springs

School, Michael Gohde, sees the world this way—as writing a computer program, the most complex outcome is really only a collection of simple elements—simple ideas, simple acts—that build on one another.

When he was 7, he was confused about why there were homeless peop le sleeping on the streets. He asked his mother why. “They need ou r help,”said Betsy deVries-Gohde, doing her best to explain their situation to her son. After that, Michael saved enough money to buy bottled water and sandwiches to distribute to the needy.

When a family friend was diagnosed with cancer last summer, Michae l and his parents purchased a pre-made care

package – a collection of products and comfort items especially tail ored for patients going through cancer treatment.

After his grandmother went through chemotherapy （化疗）for lymphoma (淋巴瘤), Michael asked his mom what things would make his grandma feel better. She suggested a care package.

On Dec 18, after Michael finished his last exam, he headed home

to finish packing about 30 gift bags. The next day, he and his mom visited a nearby cancer center to hand out the care packages.

“I had a job and extra money, so I figured, let’s do this,”Michael said. The teenager has a part-time job working

20 hours a week, helping to write Android mobile applications.

At Rocky Mountain Cancer Center, Mary Matykiewicz held her new soc ks and thanked “the very nice young man”

who’d given them to her.“You wouldn’t think kids would

recognize the need, but they tend to surprise you,”said Jayme Stangier, a patient at the center.

Betsy deVries-Gohde, whose mother died of pancreatic cancer in 1999, was

moved by her son’s compassion. “These people are so te nder now wit h what they’re going through. It feels so good to me to know that he cares,”she said. “Teenagers have their ups and downs, but Mi chael, he’s pretty steady.”

21. The underlined word “distribute”probably means ______.

A. brought

B. adopted

C. adapted

D. gathered

did Michael Gohde do to help cancer patients?

A. He volunteered to take care of them at the Cancer Center.

B. He gifted them care packages, bought with his own money.

C. He wrote mobile apps to find the treatments for them.

D. He brought them gifts to surprise them.

23. What can we infer from the article?

A. Michael’s way of viewing the world was partly related to his part-time job.

B. Michael’s mother took pride in her son’s willingness to help those in need.

C. Michael often went to Rocky Mountain Cancer Center to help look after cancer patients.

D. It was his grandmother’s suffering

from cancer that led Michael to care a lot about cancer patients.

4. Which of the following best describes Michael Gohde?

A. Well-educated.

B. Dutiful.

C. Warm-hearted.

D. Generous.

B

He has the coolest hair, and he is so funny. Every time you see him, you feel shy and embarrassed.

You don’t even know her, but you feel nervous whenever you see her and when she looks at you, you just smile like an idiot.

If a girl or a boy is making you feel this way, it sounds like you have a crush(爱恋).

Nothing your first crush is an exciting time. Sometimes , feelings for a crush can be confusing because they’re new to you. If you feel awkward around your crush, you’re not al one. That’s how most people feel. Some people are even speechless when they see their crush. It can be hard to control how you feel, but the rules of good behavior still apply. If your crush doesn’t want to talk with you or it seems like you’re making the person uncomfortable, it’s time to back off. Likewise, never let anyone behave in a way that makes you feel funny or uncomfortable.

When you develop special feelings toward someone, you might want to talk with friends about it, but sometimes kids tease(取笑) other kids about crushes. Getting teased is never fun, so if you need someone to talk with about a crush, a parent can be a good choice. They were kids once, too, and they know what it’s like. Maybe they’ll tell you about their own first crush!

When you have a crush on someone and you find out that he or she likes you, too, it’s a wonderful feeling. But sometimes it doesn’t work out that way. You might feel sad, disappointed, and rejected . If you feel heartbreak, those feelings can last for a while, but t hey will fade. And, try to be kind if you’re on the

other end of a crush—when someone likes you. It’s a compliment when someone thinks you’re special. If you don’t feel the same way, try to tell him or her in a nice way.

Crushers are new and exciting, so enjoy them while they last. Someday, you’ll be telling your own kids about your first crush!

25. When you see your crush, you may feel .

A. embarrassed

B. uncomfortable

C. teased

D. disappointed

26. Talking with parents about your crush is a good way because .

A. they will tell you their own experience

B. they are the people who always laugh at you

C. they were in your shoes before

D. they know what teasing is like

27. Which question does Paragraph 6 offer an answer to?

A. What if someone breaks my heart?

B. If I have a crush , what should I do?

C. What does it feel like to have a crush?

D. Why do I have a crush?

28. Where does this passage most probably come from?

A. A science textbook.

For most of the history, interpretation was mainly done consecutively, with speakers and interpreters making pauses to allow each other to speak. But after the appearance of radio

technology, a new simultaneous(同时的) interpretation system was developed.

In the simultaneous mode, interpreters translate a speaker’s words while he speaks without pauses. On the surface, it all looks effortless, but behind the scenes, human interpreters work continuously to ensure every idea gets across as intended, and that is no easy task.

It takes about two years of training for already fluent bilingual professionals to expend their vocabulary and master the skills necessary to become conference interpreters. To get used to the unnatural task of speaking while they listen, students shadow the speakers and repeat their every word exactly as heard in the same language. In time, they begin to paraphrase what is said, making necessary adjustments as they in this way creates new neural pathways in the interpreters’brain, and th e constant effort of reformulation gradually becomes second nature. Interpreters are also skilled at keeping calm in the fact of chaos. Remember, they

have no control over who is going to say what, of how expressive the speaker will sound. A curveball can be thrown at any time. Also, they often perform in front of thousands of people and in very thrilling settings. T o conduct a task well, they carefully prepare for an assignment, building glossaries in advance, reading eagerly about the subject matter, and reviewing previous talks on the topic. Finally, interpreters work in pairs. While one colleague is busy translating incoming speeches in real time, the other gives by locating documents, looking up words, and tracking down related information. Because simultaneous interpretation requires intense concentration, every 30 minutes, the pair switches roles. Success is heavily dependent on skillful

collaboration.

Language is complex, and when abstract concepts get lost in translation, the consequences may be deadly. As Margaret Atwood famously noted, “War is what happens when language fails.”International conference interpreters of all people are aware of that and work diligently behind the scenes to make it never does.

29. What might be the best title of this passage?

A. How to Be an Effortless Speaker

B. How Interpreters Manage Two Languages

C. How to Avoid War with Successful Translation

D. How Interpreters Enlarge Their Vocabulary

30. To become a skilled simultaneous interpreter, a student has to practice .

A. looking effortless behind the scene

B. following and copying what the speaker says

C. changing the speaker’s words into other meanings

D. creating new neural pathways to keep calm

31. What does the underlined sentence mean?

A. No one knows when a ball will be thrown out.

B. Unexpected events may happen at any moment.

C. Interpreting is like throwing a ball.

D. The speaker sometimes cannot control the interpreter.

32. Why do simultaneous interpreters work in pairs?

A. Because they have to build vocabulary before their task.

B. Because each of them works 30 minutes and then takes a break.

C. Because they have to change roles to support each other.

D. Because their success depends on looking for information.

D

A new phone app uses vibrations(振动) from smart phones to alert people about earthquakes. The phone app recognizes sudden shaking of the earth’s surface through sensors in smart phones. The new app is called MyShake. It is the work of four researchers at the University of California, Berkeley. They said they created a worldwide warning system that would inform people and give them time to prepare.

Smart phones are equipped with accelerometers. They measure acceleration movement of earth. Like that of a car of airplane. They can also measure the shaking of a machine, building or other structure. Accelerometers are used in activity trackers and apps that count steps or other exercise. They also are used in global positioning system apps, also called GPS.

MyShake uses phone accelerometers to measure seismic(地震的) activity. It has been programmed to know the difference between normal activity and earthquake movement. The software developers say their app right 93 percent of the time.

A smart phone sends seismic information to the app developers. If the developers receive several notifications from one area, it recognizes that an earthquake may be taking place or will take place soon. Using information sent from the app, the network then estimates the location and strength of the quake in real time. MyShake can record magnitude(震级) earthquakes at distances of 10 kilometers of less. MyShake uses very little power, according to its developers. Only when seismic activity is sensed by the app does it become active and sends data to the network.

MyShake can add to information collected by the Geological Survey. That agency has created the Earthquake Early Warning System, also known as the EEW. The EEW has deployed(安置) sensors for measuring quakes in many areas . In places where no

such equipment exists, MyShake may be the only method of early quake detection.

“Our goal is to build a worldwide seismic network and use the data to reduce the effects of earthquakes on us as individuals and on society as a whole,” say the researchers. The developers say they hope to add a feature that would warn people about a possible tsunami, or the huge waves after an earthquake.

33. Which of the following is a function of accelerometers?

A. Positioning the location of a car of airplane.

B. Measuring speedup movement of earth.

C. Keeping track of smart phones.

D. Creating a worldwide warning system.

34. According to the text, MyShake can .

A. add to information collected by the . Geological Survey

B. record magnitude earthquakes at distances of 10 km or more

C. be the only method of early quake detection

D. use phone accelerometers to prevent seismic activity

35. What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. An instrument to warn people about tsunami.

B. A smart phone to measure the movement of earth.

C. A phone app to warn people about earthquakes.

D. A phone app to reduce the effects of earthquakes.
