AFrom：jovangagic56@memail．com

To：kmallory@LN．org

Subject：Hi!

Dear Mr．Mallory，

I am writing to tell you my deep disappointment for my experience at Lingua Nova English summer school in the first two weeks of July．I had been thoroughly looking forward to learning English and learning about culture in the UK，but I am afraid that my time at your summer school failed to live up to my expectations．

Your brochure states that the student accommodation is situated "in the heart of Edinburgh"．This is misleading as my accommodation was，in fact，situated a good fifty minutes bus ride from the city center in what I can only describe as a less than picturesque part of the suburbs．

In addition，the activity programme did not reflect the fact that we were located in one of Europe's most interesting and historical cities: one evening activity consisted of a walk to a nearby park，another was a trip to a narrow street which was not usually used by cars．Finally，on our one trip into the city center our "guide" readily admitted that she was not from Edinburgh，and had in fact never visited the city before．I had been eagerly expecting a guided tour of Scotland's treasures．In fact，I was left in the city center with no map and told to "check things out" while your employee went shopping in Princes Street．This was a long awaited trip and cost me over two years' hard work and saving．Although I do have positive memories of my trip (my English teachers were knowledgeable and inspiring)，the accommodation and activity programme were wholly unsatisfactory．

I would like to get my money back for the accommodation and would really appreciate a reply within the next two weeks．

Yours sincerely，

Jovan Gagic

1.Jovan wrote the email to __________．

A．provide information

B．share experiences

C．express dissatisfaction

D．raise expectations

2.According to Jovan，the guide __________．

A．organized cultural activities

B．failed to perform duties

C．had a good knowledge of the city

D．received punishment for bad behavior

3.What effect does Jovan want his email to have on Mr．Mallory?

A．To make him feel sorry．

B．To cause him worry．

C．To bring him disappointment．

D．To get him into trouble．

While astronauts in space get to do many exciting things, they miss out on ordinary things that we all take for granted—being able to walk on firm ground, hanging out with family and digging into a slice of hot steaming pizza. Though not much can be done about the first two things, there may soon be a solution to the third one, thanks to this cool 3-D pizza printer!

About a year ago, NASA offered $125,000 to Anjan Contractor, a 3-D technology expert, to build a device that would allow astronauts to make pizza on demand. The mechanical engineer promised that his invention would produce pies in large quantities that looked, tasted and even smelled like pizza made in common ovens.

Late last year, the engineer presented a video of his first prototype (原型) that begins by creating a single slice of dough (面團(tuán)) that is cooked and printed at the same time. Then comes the tomato “sauce”—a mix of tomato powder, oil and water and finally, a protein slice that resembles cheese. While the video doesn’t show the baking process, the inventor says that once the pizza is printed, it can be ready to be consumed (消耗) in 7 seconds.

While the pie in the video looks delicious enough to attract any pizza lover, Anjan Contractor is far from ready for astronauts. That’s because he still has to find a solution to make the food container in the printer last for 30 years. Though that may sound unrealistic, actually it is not. Anjan Contractor believes that the only way that is possible is that the water is removed from all the ingredients and then they are reduced to the powder form. This, as you can imagine, will not be so easy. But, while the printer may not be ready for space, it certainly looks ready enough for people on earth. Hopefully, NASA and Contractor will consider selling it to those not fortunate enough to go to Mars!

1.Why does the author mention the things that astronauts in space cannot do?

A. To ask us not to take common things for granted.

B. To show they live a difficult life there.

C. To show their life is boring in space.

D. To introduce the topic of the text.

2.NASA offered $125,000 to Anjan Contractor mainly to ________.

A. create some new type of 3-D printer

B. attract more companies to work for NASA

C. help astronauts in space enjoy fresh pizza one day

D. produce pizza in large quantities to earn great profits

3.The biggest challenge that Anjan Contractor is faced with now is probably that ________.

A. he has no money left to go on with his research

B. the pizza doesn’t seem appetizing to pizza lovers

C. he has no way to make pizza that can last for thirty years

D. he cannot make the food container last for decades

4.What’s the best title of the passage?

A. NASA is trying its best to help astronauts eat better

B. Astronauts may soon be able to enjoy steaming hot pizza

C. NASA is working on making pizza for common people

D. A 3-D pizza printer has been used to make pizza

Who’s in control of your life? Who is pulling your string? For the majority of us, it’s other people—society, colleagues, friends, family or our religious community. We learned this way of operating when we were very young, of course. We were brainwashed. We discovered that feeling important and feeling accepted was a nice experience and so we learned to do everything we could to make other people like us. As Oscar Wilde puts it, “Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else’s opinions, their lives a mimicry(模仿), their passions a quotation.”

So when people tell us how wonderful we are, it makes us feel good. We long for this good feeling like a drug. Therefore, we are so eager for the approval of others that we live unhappy and limited lives, failing to do the things we really want to. Just as drug addicts and alcoholics live worsened lives to keep getting their fix (一劑毒品). We worsen our own existence to get our own constant fix of approval.

But, just as with any drug, there is a price to pay. The price of the approval drug is freedom—the freedom to be ourselves. The truth is that we cannot control what other people think. People have their own agenda, and they come with their own baggage and, in the end, they're more interested in themselves than in you. Furthermore, if we try to live by the opinions of others, we will build our life on sinking sand. Everyone has a different way of thinking, and people change their opinions all the time. The person who tries to please everyone will only end up getting exhausted and probably pleasing no one in the process.

So how can we take back control? I think there’s only one way—make a conscious decision to stop caring what other people think. We should guide ourselves by means of a set of values---not values imposed（強(qiáng)加）from the outside by others, but innate values which come from within. If we are driven by these values and not by the changing opinions and value systems of others, we will live a more authentic, effective, purposeful and happy life.

1.What Oscar Wilde says implies that _____________.

A. most people’s thoughts are controlled by others

B. most people have a variety of thoughts

C. we have thoughts similar to those of others

D. other people’s thoughts are more important

2.What does the author try to argue in the third paragraph ?

A. We need to pay for what we want to get.

B. Changing opinions may cost us our freedom.

C. We may lose ourselves to please others.

D. The price of taking drugs is freedom.

3. In order to live a happy, effective and purposeful life, we should _________.

A. care about others’ opinions and change opinions all the time

B. guide ourselves by means of values from the outside

C. stick to our own values

D. persuade others to accept our opinions

4.It can be concluded from the passage that __________.

A. it’s important to accept others’ opinions

B. it’s better to do what we like

C. we shouldn't change our own opinions

D. we shouldn’t care what others think too much

When asked by Conan O’Brien if his daughters had smartphones, comedian Louis CK explained that he had ________replied, “No, you can’t have it. It's bad for you. I don’t ________ what you want.” This hit home for me because at the time, I was in difficult negotiations with my ten-year-old daughter ________ one. And frankly, she was winning. CK added, “I’m not raising the ________ --- I’m raising the grown-ups that they’re going to be. So just ________ the other stupid kids have phones doesn’t mean that my kid has to be stupid, or ________ she’ll feel weird.” OK, I was sold.

Cell phones are “toxic, especially for kids,” he said, because they don’t help them learn empathy, one of the nicer human ________ . When we text, the ________ we get is in cold, hard text-speak. Why are kids ________? he asked. “Because they’re trying it out. They look at another kid and go. ‘You’re fat.’ Then they find the kid’s unhappy, and they think, Ooh, that doesn’t feel ________.” There, they’ve experienced empathy. Texting “you’re fat” allows you to bypass the pain you’ve caused.

CK went on to explain to us that smartphones rob us of our ability to be ________. Kids use smartphones to ________y!!! After all, one of the joys of being human is allowing our minds to ________ . With cell phones, kids are always preoccupied. They never daydream, ________ in class. And here’s something else we’re ________ out on thanks to Steve Jobs’s little device: our right to be ________ . This was a right I hadn’t realized I desired until CK pointed out that it’s yet another of the essential human emotions.

“Everybody’s murdering each other with their cars” as they text, CK screamed, because they fear being alone. Too bad —they’re missing out on a life affirming experience.

“I was in my car one time, and Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Jungleland’ came on,” he said. “And he sounds so far away. It made me really sad. And I think, OK, I’ve got to get the phone and write hi to 50 people. I was ________ for the phone, and I thought, Don’t! Just be sad.” So CK ________ over and allowed himself to sob like a little girl ________ that brand-new four-poster bed for her American Girl doll. “It was beautiful. You’re lucky to ________ sad moments,” he said. And because he didn’t fight and push it away with that little phone, because he allowed himself to be miserable, his body released endorphins(內(nèi)啡肽). “And that’s why I don’t want to get phones for my kids.” CK said. And I suppose I don’t either.

1.A. hardly B. simply C. voluntarily D. specially

2.A. reject B. care C. neglect D. separate

3.A. by B. from C. over D. beyond

4.A. children B. money C. standard D. doubts

5.A. after B. unless C. though D. because

6.A. otherwise B. nevertheless C. rarely D. moreover

7.A. emotions B. hobbies C. issues D. weaknesses

8.A. error B. response C. trouble D. danger

9.A. proud B. stupid C. mean D. delighted

10.A. upset B. awkward C. good D. crazy

11.A. creative B. smart C. critical D. alone

12.A. spare B. occupy C. value D. miss

13.A. focus B. wander C. make D. occur

14.A. even B. still C. ever D. except

15.A. figuring B. finding C. missing D. taking

16.A. capable B. accessible C. changeable D. miserable

17.A. reaching B. answering C. applying D. begging

18.A. pulled B. turned C. got D. came
