The intelligence times provide us much convenience，but at the same time，some of our abilities are being weakened gradually.

1. Memorizing phone numbers

It was annoying to remember numbers. Now we simply add them to our contacts list. That usually works well unless our device is lost，stolen，or damaged. No one can be expected to remember all their contact numbers. What we can do is memorize 5 of our most important contact numbers. This should include a mixture of family，friends and business. If you're really ambitious you can memorize 5 contacts for each category.

2. Map-reading skills

The convenience and effectiveness of GPS guidance systems and digital maps generated by search engines is unquestionable. They've definitely made our lives easier. What we don't get from using these devices and applications is the increased ability to understand spatial orientation（空間方向）and navigation.

To renew or acquire those skills，try using physical maps to plan your next trip. After a few trips，you'll be pleasantly surprised with how useful a physical map can be.

3. Photography

Even amateur photography requires a basic learning about lighting，depth，and composition. This is true for digital photography. Most smart cameras automatically make these adjustments. We no longer have to learn the art of photography. On most devices，this is easily changed by turning off the automatic settings. Experiment with setting by hand the scene modes，lighting，and zoom. You just may learn that you're a “true photographer”.

4. Reading comprehension

The primary cause is E-reader. They're convenient and can store thousands of books. But there's evidence that E-reader makes it more difficult for readers to keep and recall information they just read. Don't worry! What we should do is make an effort to read printed books. This will be especially helpful when seeking information we need for academic or career purposes.

5.Hand-written correspondence（通信）

Writing letters and notes include hand writing skills，organizational skills，and learning about the person or persons you correspond with. This is another easily regained skill. Send a letter to an old friend，relative or acquaintance.

1.What's the disadvantage by adding all numbers to the contacts list?

A. We may only have the ability to remember 5 numbers.

B. It's hard to find the number from the contacts list.

C. We might lose all our phone numbers accidentally.

D. Our device is more easily damaged or stolen.

2.To make yourself a “true photographer”，you ______.

A. must make it clear how the digital camera works itself

B. have to make your camera do the adjustments automatically

C. don't need to learn the art of photography

D. had better try to set the scene modes，lighting，and zoom by hand

3.E-readers are thought to weaken our reading comprehension because ______.

A. they are convenient and can store thousands of books

B. they make it more difficult for us to recall information

C. less people can afford to buy E-readers

D. people are not fond of reading printed books nowadays

4.The author of the text seems to ______.

A. be worried that we might lose some basic abilities in intelligence society

B. point out to us the abilities one should have for adapting to the modem society

C. be glad that people will regain these abilities by using them often in daily life

D. find out that these abilities will probably make modern people different from before

Plastic surgery is becoming popular with young people. But just a few days ago, it took the life of a pop singer in China. Wang Bei, 24, a former singer on Super Girl, died on Nov 15 during plastic surgery in Wuhan, Hubei province. The young singer’s jaw suddenly started bleeding during the procedure, blocking her throat and causing her to suffocate.

The Ministry of Health stepped in on Nov 27, calling on health authorities all over China to increase supervision of the country’s medical plastic surgery industry. It also told the Hubei health department to look into Wang’s death and “to make the results of the investigation public as soon as possible”

Wang’s death has raised concerns about the dangers of plastic surgery in China. In China, people, especially youngsters, are becoming more and more conscious of their looks and are willing to go to great lengths to make themselves look more attractive. Today, many young people see plastic surgery as the key to love, wealth and success.

Ding Xiaobang, a plastic surgeon at the Peking Union Medical College Hospital, said that in the past decade, he had seen a growing number of patients, like Wang Bei, who were young and naturally good-looking. “They want to improve their appearance to find better opportunities in work and in marriage,” said Ding.

Zhao, 23, a student at the Beijing International Studies University, spent 3,000 yuan on a eyelid tuck before graduating this year. She said: “ Of course I want to look prettier. I want to make a good impression on potential employers.”

Ding also owed this trend to frustration. “Some are frustrated with life and use surgery as a way to try and recover,” said Ding.

But a lot of people ignore the risk and danger of plastic surgery. In 12 years as a doctor, Zhu Wenbo from Chengdu has often seen unsuccessful plastic surgeries.“ I’ve met several people whose faces were ruined by plastic surgery, and helping them recover is difficult,” said Zhu.

Being yourself is the most beautiful thing in the world. But if you are considering plastic surgery, here is some advice from experts:

1. Choose qualified hospitals, especially those with a good reputation for plastic surgery. Avoid beauty salons.

2. Do not expect too much from changing your appearance. It can only change your face or another body part in certain ways. And safety should always come first.

1. What does the underlined phrase “ go to great length” mean in para3 ?

A. go as long as

B. try one’s best

C. spend a lot of money

D. go through all kinds of difficulties

2. What is NOT the reason for so many young people go to plastic surgery?

A. to make themselves more attractive

B. to improve their appearance and find better job opportunities

C. to seek better opportunities in marriage.

D. to stay young forever.

3. What kind of lesson can we draw from Wang Bei’s case?

A. Sometimes people can even sacrifice life to pursue beauty.

B. Being natural beauty is the most beautiful thing so there is no need to have plastic surgeries.

C. Choose qualified hospitals to do the plastic surgery if you really need one.

D. Accidents can always happen during the plastic surgery so never try it.

4. What is the best title of this passage?

A. The death of Wang Bei.

B. Plastic surgery—better job, better marriage.

C. The price of beauty.

D. Some advice on plastic surgery.
