Thomas Frieden heads the U.S．Centers for Disease Control and Prevention．When asked whether officials had considered a travel ban，Mr．Frieden had to say：“We won’t be able to check travelers for when they leave or when they arrive. We won’t be able , as we do ,to take a detailed history to see if they were when they arrive. When they arrive, we wouldn’t be able to impose quarantine（強加隔離）as we now can if they have contact.”

Last week , President Barack Obama urged Americans not to what he called “ panic or fear “.

How many times a day do you check your email? When you wake up? Before bed? A dozen times in between? The technology that was supposed to simplify our lives has become the vital time-suck: the average teen spends more than seven hours a day using technological devices, plus an additional hour just text-messaging friends.

The advantage of technological devices is connectedness: email lets us respond on the go, and we are in touch with more people during more hours of the day than at any other time in history. But is it possible we’re more lonely than ever, too? That’s what MIT professor Sherry Turkle observes in her new book, Alone Together, a fascinating portrait of our changing relationship with technology. Turkle details the ways technology has redefined our comprehension of closeness and loneliness—and warns us of the danger of accepting such virtual(虛擬的) relationships in place of lasting emotional connections.

For Turkle, the biggest worry is the effect all these shallow connections have on our development. Is technology offering us the lives we want to live? “We’re texting people at a distance,” says Turkle, “We’re using lifeless objects to convince ourselves that even when we’re alone, we feel together. And then when we’re with each other, we put ourselves in situations where we are alone—constantly on our mobile devices. It’s what I call a perfect storm of confusion about what’s important in our human connections.”

What can’t be denied is that technology, whatever its faults, makes life a whole lot easier. It allows us to communicate with more people in less time and makes conversation simple. But it can also be seductive(具有誘惑性的), providing more stimulation than our natural lives. There are usually some unhealthy videos online which remove teenagers’ attention from their schoolwork. Besides, some online activities make people addicted, which occupied their daily life and affected their ability to form real-world relationships.“Technology can be more immediately satisfying than the labor of building an intimate relationship,” said one highschool student, “Every time I text, I start to have some happy feelings.”

But are any of those feelings equal to the kind we feel when engaged in real, face-to-face communication? Online, you can neglect others’ feelings. In a text message, you can avoid eye contact. A number of studies have found that this generation of teens is less sympathetic than ever. That doesn’t spell disaster, says Turkle—but，

1.From the first paragraph we can infer that_________.

A. email checking helps people wake up early

B. technological device production has been simplified

C. using technological devices costs teens much time

D. people communicate mainly by text-messaging now

2.Turkle’s new book mainly discussed________.

A. ways to draw a fascinating portrait

B. how technology influences human relationships

C. the dangers of accepting emotional connections

D. the advantages of technology

3.What worries Turkle most is that more and more people are_________.

A. starting to accept emotional connections in place of virtual connections

B. convincing themselves by using fewer lifeless objects in connections

C. dropping the use of technological devices for connection with each other

D.being affected by the shallow connections through the mobile devices

4.Which of the following is True according to the passage?

A. Others’ feelings can be ignored in online communication.

B. No stimulation is provided in natural life connections.

C. People always send text messages to avoid eye contact.

D. It may be a disaster that teens are less sympathetic than ever.

5.What is the main purpose of the passage?

A. To instruct people how to do with emails.

B. To stress the importance of technology.

C. To promote a wider use of technological devices.

D. To lead us to consider what’s important in human connections.

NASA is developing the capabilities needed to send humans to an asteroid（小行星）by 2025 and then Mars in the 2030s—goals outlined in NASA’s official documents 2014．

Mars is a rich destination tor scientific discovery and robotic and human exploration as we expand our presence into the solar system．Future exploration could uncover evidence of life，answering one of the fundamental mysteries：Does life exist beyond Earth?

While robotic explorers have studied Mars for more than 40 years，NASA’s path for the human exploration of Mars begins in low-Earth orbit aboard the International Space Station．Astronauts on the orbiting laboratory are helping us prove many of the technologies and communications systems needed for human missions（任務(wù)）to deep space，including Mars．The space station also advances our understanding of how the body changes in space and how to protect astronaut health．

Our next step is deep space，where NASA will send a robotic mission to catch and redirect an asteroid to orbit the moon．Astronauts aboard the Orion spacecraft will explore the asteroid in the 2020s，returning to Earth with samples．This experience in human spaceflight beyond low-Earth orbit will help NASA test new systems，which we’ll need to send cargo（貨物）as part of human missions to Mars．Beginning in FY 2018，NASA’s powerfull Space Launch System（SLS）rocket will enable these "proving ground" missions to test new technologies．Human missions to Mars will rely on Orion and an evolved version of SLS that will be the most powerful launch vehicle ever flown。

A lot of robotic spacecraft and rovers（探測器）already are on and around Mars，greatly increasing our knowledge about the Red Planet and paving the way of future human explorers．The Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity rover measured radiation on the way to Mars and is sending back radiation data from the surface．This data will help us plan how to protect the astronauts who will explore Mars．Future missions like the Mars 2020 rover，seeking signs of past life，also will demonstrate new technologies that could help astronauts survive on Mars．

Engineers and scientists around the country are working hard to develop the technologies astronauts will use to one day live and work on Mars，and safely return home from the next giant leap for humanity．NASA also is a leader in a Global Exploration Roadmap，working with international partners and the U．S．commercial space industry with human missions to the surface of Mars as the driving goal．

1.It can be learnt from the first three paragraphs that .

A．Mars is the perfect place for scientific discovery and human settlement

C．NASA intends to send robotic explorers and humans to Mars in 2025

D．a(chǎn)stronauts in the space station are testing technologies for better life on the Earth

2.The Orion Spacecraft_________.

A．will send cargo to Mars

B．was built to explore low-earth orbit

C．needs SLS rocket to finish its mission

D．will bring back samples of an asteroid

3.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?

A．the U.S．commercial space industry is a leader in exploration to Mars．

B．Many protective measures are needed when exploring Mars．

C．NASA is an agency that plans to explore Mars in secret．

D．Curiosity rover is the first rover to be sent to Mars．

4.Which can be the best title of this passage?

A．Future life on Mars

B．Research for the Solar System

C．NASA’s Journey to Mars

D．Exploration of life Beyond Earth

When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city．We lived on a farm, in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world．As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital．However, I soon discovered that city life has its problems, too．

One big disadvantage is money．It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing．Another disadvantage is pollution．I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside．Then there is the problem of traveling round．Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams．One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous．

Of course there are advantages．First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment(娛樂活動)．Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position．Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising——and, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away．

Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens or twenties．However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable．I certainly hope to move back there soon．

1.What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child?

A．Staying on the farm．

B．Moving to the countryside.

C．Leaving home for the city．

D．Running away from the school.

A．He is very old now．

B．He is in good health.

C．He prefers driving a car．

D．He lives in the city now.

3.In the passage, the writer tries to __________.

A．express his opinions about way of life

B．describe his life in the countryside

C．a(chǎn)n interest in the outside world

D．persuade the reader to live in the city

4.How is the passage mainly developed?

A．By inferring．

B．By comparing．

C．By listing examples．

D．By giving explanations.
