话题 1 创新技术


Passage 1


It seems like technology is everywhere. Computers and smart phones are at the center of almost everything we do. They
constantly（持续地）require our attention. We text our friends

with them during the day, sleep with them by our beds and check our messages as soon as we wake up.
In the future we will use calm technology which was first developed by scientist Mark Weiser in the 1970s. In his opinion, calm technology works quietly but constantly. We know it is there, but we don’t pay much attention to it. According to Mark,
the best technology should be invisible(隐形的) and let you live

your life.

We already use many different types of calm technology in our everyday life. Do you have a smoke alarm in your house? That smoke alarm is always there, checking the air for smoke and quietly keeping you safe. It only reminds you it’s there when you’ve burnt your bread! Or there may be lights in your home or
school. When somebody passes in front of their sensor （传感

器 ） , the lights turn on. You don’t think about this type of

technology until you see the light go on.

In the future, our houses will use calm technology to open the door for us. Or even to choose the best music for our mood. The minute we walk through the door, our house will respond by turning on the lights and music, and perhaps even starting to prepare our dinner!

Today more and more people want to live in big cities, but what can be done to help them live in crowded cities like Tokyo?
Many architects( 建 筑 师 ) are looking for ways to solve this

problem. 25-year-old Haseef Rafiei has caught the world’s attention because of his special skyscraper concept(摩天大楼概 念)—“Pod Vending Machine” skyscraper.

Haseef comes from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He is now a student of Manchester School of Architecture. He got his idea form a trip to Japan. He noticed vending machines are popular in Japan. He said, “Vending machines make buying easy and interesting.” After seeing vending machines have made such a difference to people’s lives, Haseef thought, “Why not build skyscrapers that act the same way?”
Haseef’s “Pod Vending Machine” skyscraper can act as a home vending machine. If people want to buy houses in the
skyscraper, they can choose the types of pods(吊舱) they’d like

to live in and what the inside of the pods looks like. Then the large 3D printer at the top of skyscraper can get the pods printed
and then cranes ( 起 重 机 ) can get the pods placed. A smart

system inside the skyscraper decides the best place for every pod. If a person doesn’t want to live in his pod any more, the pod will
be returned to the 3D printer to get recycled. How amazing it is！

话题 2 社会责任



Passage 1

Could the students from less developed areas in central and western China get the same educational chances as those in big cities in the east? Could the children in poor areas develop as
well as those in rich cities? Maybe the answers were “No” in

the past. But now, China is trying to change the situation.

In order to help countryside students grow taller and stronger, China’s Nutrition (营养) Improvement Program started

in 2011. According to the program, a lot more money was spent improving students’ meals. More than 36 million students from
134,000 primary and junior high schools in poor areas have benefited from it. They are provided with healthy food like eggs and milk from Monday to Friday at school. And the result of a survey shows that the students in those areas are much taller and stronger than before.
It is true that there were differences between less developed areas and developed areas in education before. Recently, the Guideline for Popularizing High School Education ( 2017-2020) has come out. According to the guideline, above 90% students

from all over the country will go to high schools by 2020. What’s more, the schools in central and western areas will get more support to improve their education.
Students from poor areas also get more chances to receive higher education. A special college program makes it possible for more students from those areas to go to key colleges and universities.

With the guideline and the program, we can expect a fairer and more balanced education in the future.

话题 3 教育引导



Passage 1

On the first day of every year, millions of Americans make a New Year’s decision (or two or three) that they won’t keep. Why we keep making decisions—and why they’re so hard to follow.
There’s one clear reason why most decisions fail. We usually pay attention to goals or tasks that we haven’t been able to achieve over the past year. “You are making it your New Year’s goal because you keep failing at it,” says Tim Pychyl, a
psychologist (心理学家) at Carleton University in Ottawa.

The other terrible thing about New Year’s decisions, he says, is that making them needs no action. The simple thought— the idea that we plan to lose weight or exercise more— just thinking about losing weight makes us feel good, and we don’t actually have to go out and do the tasks necessary to achieve that
goal.

“They make the decision now, but they don’t do anything. It’s like going to buy furniture and not having to pay anything until 2019.” says Pychyl. He adds we would never form a New Year’s decision around tasks we like to do. We already did those things the year before, so there’s nothing satisfying about

keeping them up. Procrastination ( 拖 延 ) is one of the number

one reasons decisions fail.

Although we try to overcome our difficulties of our decisions, something a little stronger takes over in our brains: the force of habit. Habits have been a really good thing; they are
automatic ( 自动的) thoughts or actions that have, for example,

saved us from predators ( 捕食者，掠夺者). By understanding what’s going on in your brain, you have a better chance at controlling it.

话题 4 文化传承



Passage 1

The American holiday of Thanksgiving is celebrated every year on the fourth Thursday in November. The holiday is during autumn—the main season for harvest (收获). Thanksgiving is an autumn harvest festival like those found in many cultures around the world.
On this day, most Americans get together with friends and family. Many take time to think about what they are thankful for, cook a big meal, and eat a lot. The star of most Thanksgiving dinners is a roasted (烧烤的) turkey. The turkey is cooked in an oven ( 烤箱) for many hours, often with cabbage, bread, onions and spices (香料) inside the bird. This mix becomes stuffing — another star of the Thanksgiving dinner table. After the bird is cooked, the stuffing is taken out and served as a side dish. Families often make other foods like roasted potatoes, sweet potatoes, sausages and vegetable soup.
Some Americans must travel long distances to be with their families. In fact, the Sunday after Thanksgiving is the busiest

travel day of the whole year. This is usually when people return home from family parties. Not everyone can make the return home each Thanksgiving. So, young people living in cities away from their hometowns sometimes celebrate “Friendsgiving” —a Thanksgiving meal with their friends instead of their family. They gather at someone’s house and have a lucky meal. This is a meal where everyone who is invited brings food to share with
others.

Passage 2

McDonald’s South Africa is trying a mobile payment service at some restaurants in Johannesburg and Cape Town using social messaging app WeChat. By doing this, they want to encourage customers to complete paying by presenting QR
codes (二维码) produced by the app at the point of sale.

To mark the start of Quick Pay, WeChat is also giving the first 20,000 McDonald’s customers 50% money back when using the service to pay for their meal.
“We are endlessly searching for new ways to improve our customers’ experience,” says Daniel Padiachy, the marketing officer at McDonald’s South Africa. “We believe that WeChat’s
Quick Pay will assist us more in supporting these principles (原

则).

WeChat was started in South Africa in November in 2016 by Chinese company Tencent in partnership with Standard Bank. The service lets users pay for services such as broadcast, phones
and electricity and make in-store payments by scanning ( 扫描)

QR codes at 30,000 shopkeepers supporting the WeChat mobile payments platform.

WeChat began offering in-store payments at nine Chinese shops in September 2014. Tencent reported that more than 200

million customers have added their bank cards to its QQ Wallet and WeChat Pay mobile payment platforms.

Passage 3
For many Americans, monarch butterflies ( 王蝶) are a sign of changing seasons. In the late summer and early autumn, the butterflies fly south from Canada and the United States’ mainland to Mexico.
But Darlene Burgess still keeps seeing the bright, colorful insects — and she lives in Canada. Burgess keeps counts of

Monarch butterflies at Point Pelee National Park in Ontario.

“Although it is nice to see the large numbers of Monarchs, I really wish I wouldn’t see it because they’re running out of time,” she said. “It’s really not good for them.”
Monarchs are not just staying in Canada. Groups of them have been seen north of the Mexican border, such as the American state of New Jersey. Their large numbers are not normal for late October.
There are a few reasons why the monarchs did not fly south when they should. Some monarchs were born late. Some did not move south because of warm weather. Others could not fly south because of strong winds that lasted for weeks.
Monarchs have faced a number of problems in recent years. Habitat ( 栖息地) loss, climate change, and chemical pesticides

have hurt the butterfly population, said Lincoln Brower, a biology professor at Sweet Briar College. Brower has been studying the butterflies since 1954.
The colorful creatures also have a less food supply —

especially in the form of milkweeds, which are the only food they can eat when they are caterpillars ( 毛毛虫). Taylor notes

that this year may not be as bad as some of the most recent years.

The 2013-2014 season was especially bad. “Not all is lost,” he said.

It’s a must-eat fruit in Southeast Asia. People there call it

“King of Fruits”. Many love it so much that they eat it at every meal. “What’s it?” you may wonder. It is the durian(榴莲).

“durian” comes from the Malay word “duri”. It means
“thorn(刺)”.

The durian is the most famous fruit in Southeast Asia. It looks big and dangerous and has a very strong smell. There are

many different kinds of durians. They come in different sizes. A durian can grow up to 30cm long, and usually it can be as heavy as 1 to 3kg.

Passage 6
“Without music, life would be a mistake.” famous German

philosopher Friendrich Nietzsche said over a century ago. Music is a big part of our lives. But in recent years, some US schools
have cut music classes to control budgets (预算).

For example, Chicago public schools hurt arts education when it fired ( 解 雇 ) over 1,000 teachers. Among them, 10

percent of the teachers taught art or music, according to The Washington Times. In fact, this is not just a problem in the US. In other countries, such as China and the UK, music classes are not thought to be as important as ones like science, math and

history. That’s partly because music is not seen as a very important life skill, and it isn’t tested. Many students are busy with schoolwork, so parents and students choose to focus on subjects that are tested more often.
However, learning music is beneficial in many ways.

When playing music, you need different abilities to work together. It is not as simple as it looks, according to Kenneth Guilmartin of Music Together, an early childhood music development program. For example, when playing the piano,
people see music notes and decode( 解码) them in their brains.

They also use their fingers to make sounds. You need to deal with all these things at the same time.
Music has a special connection with science as well. You can see that many scientists are good at playing music: Einstein played the violin, and German physicist Max Planck was talented in playing the piano.

Passage 7

There is an English proverb that says, “Let Sleeping Dogs Lie.” It means not to bring up an old problem. Researchers in Hungary have found another reason to let dogs keep on sleeping. It seems that the animals are learning while they sleep.
The scientists placed wires on the dogs’ heads to measure electrical activity in the brain. The brain activity, called sleep
spindles ( 睡眠纺锤波), takes place in human beings, and has

been connected with learning. The Hungarian scientists hope to understand how the dogs’ ability to learn and remember changes as they get older. The study may help researchers understand how the changes of human brains take place as we age.
Ivaylo Iotchey, one of the researchers, says that this is the first time dogs’ sleep spindles have been measured( 测量), and

related to the dogs learning new things. “From studies, we know that in the dog, sleep spindles have only been described, but they were never related to function. This is the first time we were able to show that we connect sleep spindles with learning in the dog.
Researchers hope the study will not only help understanding of learning ability and memory changes in dogs, but also the aging process in humans. They found that the aging dogs suffer from the same problems as humans who are aging. Among very old dogs, up to two thirds of them show signs of
dementia(老年痴呆), and this dementia is really very similar to

that of humans, so we could use dogs as a natural model of human aging.
The team collects problems from dogs’ brains and shares the results with researchers around the world.

In many parts of the world, especially in Northern Europe and North America, people eat a lot of potatoes. Like many important foods, it was introduced to England from North America at the time of Queen Elizabeth. Nowadays it is such an important part of the Englishman’s food that it is difficult to imagine how he used to manage without it. Potatoes can be cooked in many different ways. The four main methods used in England are boiling, baking, roasting and frying.

for about half an hour. Usually their skins are not taken away. Baked potatoes with their skins on are called potatoes in their jackets.

Roasting is like baking because it is usually done in an oven. The main difference between baking and roasting is that when baking one does not use fat, but in roasting one does. For their Sunday lunch many English people usually have roast beef with roast potatoes.
Frying is like roasting because fat or oil is used but one does not use an oven. There are two main ways of frying potatoes. One can cut them into pieces and fry them in a special shallow pan called a frying pan. The other way is called deep frying. The pieces of potatoes are put into a deep pan or metal box full of oil. This is like boiling except that one uses oil instead of water.

Passage 1

Studying abroad is a chance to step into a new culture—but that doesn’t mean you can take that step for free. If you are
nervous about financial ( 经 济 的 ， 财 务 的 ) matters while

studying abroad, here are some tips for studying abroad according to my personal experience.
Try to gain as many scholarships as possible

Depending on your program, there may be scholarship chances from your study abroad program provider (if it’s different from your college), host institution, or home university. Plan ahead for the money
Before you leave, think about what you will buy every day. How much money will you need for food, traffic, and basic needs? Once you work that out, you can see how much you’ll be
left to buy souvenirs(纪念品).

Watch out for ATM fees

Many American banks ask you to pay fees every time you use an ATM overseas. Although a dollar or two may seem small, these fees can add up if you only take out a little of money at a time. One way about this is to avoid using the ATM too often, but that means carrying lots of money with you, which isn’t always a good idea. Try finding a bank that doesn’t have overseas ATM fees.
Decide what’s worth a paying and what’s not

Remember to spend a little more on travel experiences than on souvenirs. At the same time, having a few meaningful souvenirs from the places you visit is also a nice way to remember your travels, but these don’t have to be expensive.

Passage 2

As is known to us, we achieve our goals one step at a time, doing a little each day. So, using your day well is important. Here are four ideas on how to start your day off right.
Get up an hour early

People who get up early in the morning have a jump on the day. For starters, they’re awake! And some studies show that our

willpower and attention are strongest in the morning. In fact, the morning may be the most productive (富有成效的，有收获的)

part of your day. People who rise up early have a head start and are more likely to succeed.
Drink a glass of water with lemon juice

Although your coffee is being prepared or waiting for your tea water to heat up, drink a glass of water with lemon juice. Why? Health experts say that drinking a cup of lemon juice and
water in the morning starts the body’s metabolism ( 新陈代谢).

Not only does it start your body’s cells, but keeps them moving throughout the day.
Exercise

Physical fitness experts and trainers often suggest doing exercise in the morning because the middle of the day is a busy time for most people. By the day’s end, you may not have the time or energy to exercise. Exercising in the morning prevents that from happening.
Think about your day at night

Take time at the end of the day to think back on all the things that have happened. Give thanks, if you want. And spend a little time to think about tomorrow. This may help you to prepare if

you take a few minutes to think about what you need to do the next day.

Passage 3

Many children spend a lot of time watching or playing with electronic media —from televisions to video games, computers and other device(设备).

So, it is natural that parents should wonder about the time children spend looking at a TV or computer screen. Americans say “screen time” when they talk about any time children spend in front of an electronic device.
Perhaps parents can stop worrying so much about screen time, at least for older boys and girls. In October 2017, The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) listed several suggestions for parents and child care workers. Here are some of the suggestions.

● Avoid digital( 数 字 的 ) media use in children younger

than 18 to 24 months.

● For children aged 18 to 24 months, avoid letting the child watch media alone. And avoid using media as a way to comfort your child.
● For children two to five years of age, allow one hour screen time on “high quality programming” a day and watch it with your child.
● For children aged 6 and older, don’t spend too much time using media. Also, make sure that screen time does not take the place of healthy sleep, exercising, doing homework, and other activities.
● Make sure to have media-free time together as a family, such as dinner or driving. Also make some areas of the home media-free. Turn off your child’s electronic devices an hour before bedtime.

Passage 4

When we are worried, or mad, we don’t always know what to do. You’re looking for help and that’s what we are here for. Here’s how to deal with strong feelings and relax yourself. However, you have to remember that it’s always up to you, you can control yourself if you follow these tips.
Lie down in a safe place. Close your eyes and listen to slow music to make your mind quiet. Imagine every part of your body relaxing. Start with your toes and as you breathe, imagine them becoming one with the Earth. Remember to breathe from your stomach to spend several breaths on each body part until you
feel all the muscles (肌肉) there completely relaxed. Try to be as

still as possible.

Take a piece of paper to write about what has happened and list steps of action to work it out properly. After you write it down, throw it away. It’s like throwing away those feelings you just want to get out.
Realize that you cannot control what will happen today. Know that you can control how you react to the problems that will happen every day. When you find yourself getting worried, or stressed because life seems to be out of control, take a few deep breaths first. And then tell yourself “Life is crazy but I am calm”. Repeat this ten times and you will get calm.
Don”t get down on yourself. If you’re having a bad day, look at yourself in the mirror and tell yourself good things. Say “You are smart/beautiful/handsome.” to keep your confidence up. Don’t let other people bring you down! Stay Strong!

Passage 5
I was bullied ( 欺 负 ) quite badly in high school. A kid would try to make me feel terrible in every way he knew. For example, he would hit me in the head, call me ugly and stupid and make fun of me. It was like his daily job.
Looking back to that time — which was about 7 years ago

—my biggest mistake was not bringing anyone into that world of mine. I was too proud and embarrassed to get help. I would rather not face the fact that I needed help because in my mind, that would mean that the bully won. It would also mean that I was weak.
Let me just say this — bullying someone is a weak choice. The only reason they come after you is because they think you won’t do anything about it. Does that make anyone strong? No. Be stronger — reach out to a parent, a teacher or a friend. Admit you need help.
You can put it like this: Somebody who is trying to make himself or herself seem important has bullied me. Why? Simply because I am nice and I haven’t done anything about it yet. Well,

I hate this. I have basic human rights. It is just not OK. How do I manage this the right way? I don’t want the pain cycle to continue and I don’t want to become someone I don’t want to be.
I will close by saying this — I am OK! I am enjoying my life. I graduated from college with good grades. You don’t have to wait to live. Do something today.
