16.If you frequently travel for business,Staybridge Suites offer you a range of home comforts.Four recent visitors to Staybridge Suites explain why they booked,what they enjoyed and what made them want to return.
Claire Metcalf
"The concept is great,but the staff are the ones who really make it."she says."It takes a lot of discipline to always be friendly,but the staff at Staybridge Suites do that.They genuinely care about you."
Andrew Roberts
"One of the best things is having my own kitchen.I often end up working late and I don't fancy(喜歡) eating in a restaurant on my own,so cooking for myself is a big drawcard."
"The main thing for me is being able to cook and have my own little flat.The staff are amazing.It is great to be recognized by them,"he says.
Pauline Robinson
"What I love about it is the way that you are treated by the staff,"she says."Some of the staff have been there all that time and they do look after you well.As a woman staying on my own,it is reassuring that they look out for you,and recently when I was poorly depressed they even brought things I needed to my room."
Ryan Ruckledge
"The fully-equipped kitchen is great.I always have a one-bed apartment so I have a separate kitchen and dining room and I'm able to relax and cook some meals.Eating out can feel a bit much when you do it day in and day out-it makes you hate what you do-and I don't want that."

參考詞匯:低頭族phubbing
Dear editor,
I'm writing to you about a common phenomenon to draw it to the public attention.
As is often the case,when people are having meals,waiting for buses or even walking along streets,they are always addicted to their phones,heads hanging down,completely ignoring others.
The reason for the increasing number of phubbings everywhere is that smart phones nowadays can be used for people to do nearly everything,such as playing mobile games,shopping online and keeping in touch with friends through QQ.However,too much exposure to phones is harmful for their health and safety.Moreover,people engaged in phones fail to communicate well with those around them.
Personally,people should wisely use their phones to help with their work and study.Meanwhile they'd better care more about their family and friends rather than phones.
Best wishes to you!.

1.We know the famous ones-the Thomas Edisons and the Alexander Graham Bells-but what about the less famous inventors?What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper  (雨刮器)?Shouldn't we know who they are?
Joan Mclean thinks so.In fact,Mclean,a professor of physics at Mountain University in Range,feels so strongly about this matter that she's developed a course on the topic.In addition to learning"who"invented"what",however,Mclean also likes her students to learn the answers to the"why"and"how"questions.According to Mclean,"When students learn the answers to these questions,they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try."
Her students agree.One young man with a patent for an unbreakable umbrella is walking proof of McLean's statement."If I had not heard the story of the windshield wiper's invention,"said Tommy Lee,a senior physics major."I never would have dreamed of turning my bad experience during a rain storm into something so meaningful."Lee is currently negotiating(商談) to sell his patent to an umbrella producer.
So,just what is the story behind the windshield wiper?Well,Mary Anderson came up with the idea in 1902after a visit to New York City.The day was cold and stormy,but Anderson still wanted to see the sights,so she jumped aboard a streetcar.Noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield,she found herself wondering why there couldn't be a built-in device for cleaning the window.Still wondering about this when she returned home to Birmingham,Alabama,Anderson started working out solutions.One of her ideas,a lever (操作桿) on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside,became the first windshield wiper.
Today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations(創(chuàng)新).It's hard to imagine driving without Garrett A.Morgan's traffic light.It's equally impossible to picture a world without Katherine J.Blodgett's innovation that makes glass invisible.

32.By mentioning"traffic light"and"windshield wiper",the author indicates that countless inventions areA.
A.beneficial,though their inventors are less famous
B.beneficial,because their inventors are famous
C.not useful,because their inventors are less famous
D.not useful,though their inventors are famous
33.Professor Joan McLean's course aims toB.
A.a(chǎn)dd color and variety to students'campus life
B.prepare students to try their own invention
C.carry out the requirements by Mountain University
D.inform students of the windshield wiper's invention
34.Tommy Lee's invention of the unbreakable umbrella wasD.
A.not eventually accepted by the umbrella producer
B.not related to Professor Joan McLean's lectures
C.due to his dream of being caught in a rainstorm
D.inspired by the story behind the windshield wiper
35.Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage?D
A.How to Help Students to Sell Their Inventions to Producers?
B.How to Design a Built-in Device for Cleaning the Window?
C.Shouldn't We Develop Invention Courses in Universities?
D.Shouldn't We Know Who Invented the Windshield Wiper?

7.Imagine picking apples on Christmas or going skating on May Day.What about going for a swim on Thanksgiving?Without Leap Day(閏日),which takes place every four years,that could happen.
Our calendar is normally 365 days long.It was created to match the cycles of the seasons.But Roman ruler Julius Caesar noticed a problem:The earth doesn't circle the sun in exactly 365 days.It actually takes 365and one-quarter days.He figured out that the extra part of a day would cause the calendar to grow apart from the seasons over time.Over 100 years,the seasons would shift about 24 days.Spring would start on April 13instead of March 20.
Caesar used math to figure out a way to stop the calendar from shifting.He decided to add an extra day to the month of February every four years.His idea helped keep the seasons and calendar matched up.Even so,it still wasn't perfect-his calendar was adding too many days.
In 1582,Pope Gregory XIII worked on Caesar's idea.His calendar,called the Gregorian calendar,declares that every year that is equally divided by 400is a leap year.Turn-of-the-century years,or years ending in"00",would not be leap years unless they could be divided equally by 400.These complicated equations(等式)help keep the calendar in balance with the orbit of the earth.Today,we still use the Gregorian calendar.In about 3,000 years,the calendar will be only one day out of step with the seasons,It's still not perfect,but mathematicians decided it was as close as we could get.

28.Why was Julius Caesar's calendar not good enough?A
A.There would be too many days on the calendar.
B.It would be only one day out of step with the seasons.
C.Spring would start twenty-four days later than usual
D.Leap Day would take place every other year.
29.It can be inferred from the text thatD.
A.the earth circles the sun in exactly 365 days
B.Caesar added an extra day to every February
C.Pope's calendar has been used for 3,000 years
D.Gregorian calendar is more scientific than Caesar's
30.Which of the following years is a leap year according to Pope?C
A.The year 2100.
B.The year 2200.
C.The year 2400.
D.The year 2300.
31.In which section of a website can you probably read this text?C
A.Opinion.B.Policy.C.Science.D.Entertainment.
