A Korean wave is sweeping across China, with many Chinese women worshiping South Korean actors Kin Soo hyun and Lee Min ho as demigods(偶像).Chinese netizens always have different opinions.Over South Korean TV dramas, but there is no doubt that programs from the neighboring country are now enjoying a new round of popularity in China, And a big part of the credit for that goes to You Who Came From The Star, the South Korean TV series which is on the air now.

You Who Came From The Star and The Heirs (繼承者們) have been subjects of hot online discussions throughout Asia.Besides, the book, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, read by the hero You Who Came From The Star was a hard to get item on Amazon for a while.

The two TV programs have several common elements (因素):a tall, handsome, and rich hero who loves the heroine blindly and always protects her, and an equally handsome man madly in love with the same woman.Both programs describe the purity of love, which is expressed through a kiss or a warm hug.Perhaps that’s the secret of their success; perhaps people still like Cinderella type stories.

The widening wealth gap is a matter of social concern both in South Korea and China, and the challenges that young people face in their hope for a better life might have caused many ordinary girls to dream of marrying rich, caring men.This is precisely what the popular South Korean TV drams describe.In fact, South Korean TV dramas are tailored to meet the market’s demands.

Many netizens even said at an earlier time that South Korean TV dramas had become popular because of their stereotyped (模式化的) themes: traffic accidents, cancer and other incurable diseases.But all that has changed with the success of You Who Came From The Star and The Heirs, which Chinese directors can use as examples, as well as inspiration, to improve their productions.

1.What is the main reason for a new round of popularity in China?

A.The dramas are from the neighboring country North Korea.

B.Most of the Chinese netizens have voted for them.

C.The actors in the dramas are all gods.

D.It is because of You Who Came From The Star.

Robots make me nervous-especially the ones which seem to think for themselves.I was embarrassed to admit this till I heard that Bill Gates,the founder of Microsoft,felt the same way.Gates said in an interview with the website Reddit:“I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence.First the machines will do a lot of jobs for us and not be super intelligent.That should be positive if we manage well.A few decades after that though the intelligence is strong enough to be a concern.”

Well,maybe I don’t have to worry about my laptop and kitchen appliances yet.After I use them I can always pull the plug.But in the future,machines might find a way to prevent us from switching them off.There’s a scary thought!

Professor Stephen Hawking warned a few months ago about the possibility that artificial intelligence could evolve and end up beyond human contro1.He suggested that machines could“spell the end of the human race”.

Maybe the problem with computers too clever for us is not that they are evil or rebellious.What could put us in danger is that they might be too efficient.That’s what philosopher Nick Bostrom from the Future of Humanity Institute at Oxford University believes.He says that machines are indifferent to humans and in pursuit of their own goals,the destruction of people might be just collateral(附帶的)damage.A machine would not take pity on you.

I’m glad my machines at home are“dumb”.All my vacuum cleaner wants to take over is the carpet in my living room.Let’s hope they don’t create an appliance which wants to take over the world!

1.We can conclude from Gates’statements that ___________.

A.he is embarrassed that he is afraid of robots

B.he doesn’t think machines are intelligent

C.machines should be fully employed

D.machines’super intelligence should be a concern

2.The underlined word“spell”in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _____________.

A.record B.cause C.explain D.develop

3.Why are computers dangerous according to Nick Bostrom?

A.They are too evil and rebellious.

B.They are indifferent to humans.

C.They show pity on humans.

D.They are too clever and efficient.

4.What can be inferred about the author?

A.He doesn’t agree with Bill Gates.

B.He is not content with the present kitchen appliances.

C.He is scared about the super intelligence of machines.

D.He expects that machines will take place of humans.

You may have experienced the annoyance of being fined because of parking illegally or finding your car towed away(拖走)after leaving it parked somewhere for a couple of minutes.But now a high-tech car sticker that’s designed to be stuck to a car’s windscreen could help motorists avoid such a situation.

The TowStop sticker sends a text message to a driver when touched by a traffic policeman,to allow motorists to send a reply and give them time to move their cars immediately.Frankfurt-based IT consultant,Daniel Kalliontzis,came up with the idea and is raising money to put his ?54(£43) sticker into production.

Car owners can put the sticker inside their car’s windscreen,having set it up with key information,such as their phone number.The slim design will include a sensor(傳感器)that,when touched by a traffic policeman,will send a text message warning a driver of a possible fine.The driver could then type a reply for the policeman using a smartphone,which will appear on the sticker’s screen.

The smart sticker system will rely on the good will of traffic policemen and in a way,a German law.The law states:an officer has to choose the most efficient and inexpensive way for the car owner to remove the vehicle.It could be cheaper for the government to call the driver than to tow his car.

Mail Online asked the Department of Transport whether the sticker could be used in the UK in a similar way.A spokesman said,“In England there is no legal duty to warn the motorist before issuing the ticket.However,a policeman does have the discretion not to issue a ticket if he doesn’t think the situation is that bad or he just wants to issue a warning.”

So far,Mr.Kalliontzis has raised just over ?3,000(£2,362)of his ?50,000(£39,381) goal.If he manages to raise the money,the stickers will be shipped in June 2015.But it appears that car owners using the smart system could get some unnecessary warning messages,because anyone could touch the smart sticker.

1.The author wrote the third paragraph to _______________.

A.explain how a smart car sticker works

B.a(chǎn)dvise drivers to buy a car sticker

C.show the importance of a sensor

D.tell drivers how to park a car

2.We may infer from the text that in Britain _______________.

A.car owners don’t have to worry about a parking ticket

B.smart car stickers wouldn’t work as well as in Germany

C.traffic policemen prefer to call a driver rather than tow his car

D.the Department of Transport thinks highly of smart car stickers

3.The underlined word“discretion” in Paragraph 5 can best be replaced by“____________”.

A.trouble B.pressure

C.freedom D.opportunity

4.What would be the best title for the text?

A.Daniel Kalliontzis — a great inventor

B.Environment-friendly car stickers

C.Parking systems in Europe

D.End of the parking ticket?

Teenage years can be confusing for both teenagers and parents.At about 15, many teens start thinking about how they feel about themselves and out how this matches or mismatches what others think of them.Most teens work through this by the age of 16 or 17.

Often teenagers are treated like bigger children, but they will never become and responsible if they are not allowed to make some decisions for themselves.If parents forbid their children from doing something, chances are that they will do it without permission anyway.The role of a parent must, therefore, change from that of protector and keeper to that of friend and

Yet even the most caring parents misunderstand their children sometimes, and some think of teenagers as insecure, stubborn and .As a result, teenagers always keep their from their parents.Teens often that their parents repeat the same things over and over again and never listen to them.Parents must understand that teens need to be allowed to their side of any problem and express their point of view.

Thus, more private and level-headed communication is needed for the parents.Every parent should try to schedule time to be with their child, like taking a short trip together.This time allows parents to talk and listen without from work or other family members.It might also be good to encourage teens to important issues at dinner.Discussion time shows teens that parents are interested in them and their lives.

A person’s teenage years are a key time for them to identify their own ,like distinguishing good from evil.Handling and improving communication with teenagers is not easy, but success will be for parents and teens alike.
