The dimmed lights before taking off the runway and landing are a flight

escape. “Going from a brightly lit environment to one that's completely dark would
require some time for our eyes to focus and see the escape slide,” Alice Theriault,

It normally takes our eyes about 20 to 30 minutes to see best in a dark room. The brighter
the lights, the longer it takes for our eyes to adjust, which is why dimming the plane
lights could shorten your “dark adaptation” time since you haven't been sitting under fluorescent bulbs (荧光灯) all flight.
Not only does dimming lights add valuable time to the escape process, it reduces
the tension on your eyes if you need to look outside, or see the emergency lighting along

pilot
The Telegraph. told and author of Cockpit Confidential“It also makes it easier for
flight attendants to assess any outside risks, such as fire or debris, that might
affect an escape.” So next time a pilot dims the lights, just know it's for your safety,
even though it creates a gentle atmosphere for your takeoff into the sky.

When was the last time you told someone they inspire you to go to work each morning
Teachers at Oak Park High School in Kansas City, Missouri, did just that this September,
when they pulled individual students out of class to tell them just how much they appreciated them.
The students' reactions, which were captured (捕捉) on video and shared on YouTube
in a now-viral video, ranged from shy thanks to hugs and tears.
“I have been challenged to find a student who makes me want to come to school every
day,” says one teacher in the video, “and that's you.”
Jamie McSparin, a teacher in charge of the school's academy program for at-risk sophomores （二年级学生）and juniors, posed the challenge, writes ABC News.
“Initially when we pulled the kids out, they all thought they were in trouble,”
McSparin told ABC News. “Any teacher-student interaction always seems to be negative

progress.DOn a college camping trip, curiosity about waves and sand caused Rob Thieler to study
shorelines around the world. Thirty years later and now a . Geological Survey research geologist, Thieler, is combining science and smartphone technology to help study an endangered bird, the Atlantic Coast piping plover.
The piping plover is a shorebird that breeds（繁殖）along the Atlantic Coast, the Great Lakes
and the Great Plains. Rising sea levels associated with climate change, as well as increased
development in their beach habitats（栖息地）, threaten the species（物种）. To help track
changes in piping plover habitats, Thieler developed a free app called iPlover in 2012. This is a marked change from the typical way scientists collect data, which involves gathering information using specialized equipment or writing in notebooks and then putting
into spreadsheets.
Since releasing iPlover, scientists have gathered data across 1500 km of breeding range. That
equals about a third of the distance across the ., which is a large area to cover for only
two thousand breeding pairs of piping plovers on the east coast. Instead of having to travel
and spend days at each site, a number of cooperators in the field use the app to collect and send data, allowing scientists to gather data more efficiently. It also allows them to collect data at the same time during each breeding season, providing a better picture of changes that happen over longer periods of time. And fast, centralized access means scientists can look at data quickly to get a real-time idea of where and how piping plovers are using their habitats.
While iPlover is used by trained field staff, other apps like the U. S. Geological Survey's
web-based “iCoast—Did the Coast Change” invite citizen scientists to identify coastal changes by comparing bird's-eye-view photographs taken before and after storms. All the information scientists and citizen scientists alike collect helps federal and state agencies create policy plans for addressing climate change impacts (影响) worldwide.
32. What can we know about the piping plover
A. Its behaviour is changing.
B. Its habitat is growing bigger.
C. Its living environment is becoming worse.
D. Its breeding is limited to the Atlantic Coast.
33. Why did Thieler develop iPlover
A. To study shorelines across America.
B. To advance information technology.
C. To find out global climate change.
D. To monitor changes of piping plover habitats.
34. Which of the following benefits the shorebirds
A. The camping equipment.
B. Research on smartphones.
C. The changeable coast.
D. Progress in technology.
would be the best title of the text
A. Protecting Endangered Shorebirds
B. Rob Thieler, a Creative Scientist
C. IPlover, Tool for Training Field Staff
D. Differences Between IPlover and ICoast
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Many people think only professionals—engineers, accountants, teachers,
etc.—have careers. 36 Even if you've never had a paid job, you still have a
career. Your career is the sum of your life and work. It includes all your activities and experiences. Your schooling, your volunteer work, and even your relationships with your family are all big parts of your career. 37
During your career, you will have a variety of jobs, occupations and roles. People used to think of a job as full-time, permanent, paid work done for an employer at a work site. But in our changing world, a job is a set of duties or tasks. It can be paid or unpaid. 38 Even someone who is self-employed has a job.
An occupation is a group of jobs with similar responsibilities that require a common set of skills. 39 Programmers may have permanent or temporary jobs working
for specific employers, be self-employed, work full-time or part-time, be paid for their work or volunteer their services. They may change jobs or hold several jobs at one time but, until they change the type of duties or tasks they perform, they are still computer programmers.
40 We all play a number of roles in our lives and our roles often change over
time. For example, Kris works four days a week as a receptionist in a clinic and takes evening courses in social work. She also sews gymnastic wear for her neighbor who sells it at summer markets. Now Kris has at least three roles.
A. A role is a part you play.
B. Actually everyone has a career.
C. In other words, your career is your life story.
D. For example, computer programmer is an occupation.
E. As a matter of fact, a job is different from a role in some way.
F. It can be completed at a work site, at home, or somewhere else.
G. The following is about your work, your family, and your life story.
