C
My father was, by nature, a cheerful, kindly man.Until he was thirty-four years old he worked as a farm-hand for Thomas Butterworth near the town of Bidwell, Ohio.On Saturday evenings he drove his horse into town to spend a few hours in social intercourse with other farm-hands.He was quite happy in his position in life.
It was in his thirty-fifth year that father married my mother, a school teacher.Something happened to the two people.The American passion for getting up in the world took possession of them.Mother induced father to give up his place as a farm-hand, sell his horse and start an independent enterprise of his own.They rented ten acres of poor stony land and launched into chicken raising.
One inexperienced in such matters can have no idea of the many and tragic things that can happen to a chicken.It is born out of an egg, lives for a few weeks as a tiny fluffy thing, then becomes naked, gets diseases, and dies.A few hens, and now and then a rooster, intended to serve God’s mysterious ends, struggle through to maturity.The hens lay eggs out of which come other chickens and the awful cycle is thus made complete.It is all unbelievably complex.Most philosophers must have been raised on chicken farms.One hopes for so much from a chicken and is so awfully disappointed.Small chickens, look so bright and in fact so awfully stupid.They are so much like people they mix one up in one’s judgments of life.If disease does not kill them they wait until your expectations are thoroughly aroused and then walk under the wheels of a carriage.
In later life I have seen how a literature has been built up on the subject of fortunes to be made out of the raising of chickens.It is intended to be read by the gods who have just eaten of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.It is a hopeful literature and declares that much may be done by simple ambitious people who own a few hens.Do not be misguided by it.It was not written for you.Go hunt for gold on the frozen hills of Alaska, put your faith in the honesty of a politician, believe if you will that good will defeat evil, but do not read and believe the literature that is written concerning the hen.
For ten years my father and mother struggled to make our chicken farm pay and then they gave up that struggle and began another.They moved into the town of Bidwell, Ohio and began the restaurant business, with the tiny hope of looking for a new place from which to start on our upward journey through life.
1.Which of the following is the right order of what happened?
a.Father got married to Mother, a school teacher.
b.Father quitted working at Butterworth’s.
c.My parents launched a business in Bidwell.
d.Father socialized in town on Saturday evenings
e.My parents started their job of chicken farming.
A.d-a-b-e-c
B.d-a-c-b-e
C.d-b-a-e-c
D.d-b-a-c-e
2.By saying “Most philosophers must have been raised on chicken farms”, the author means that chicken farming _____.
A.is so complex that only philosophers can comprehend it
B.gives you a philosophical insight into life
C.exposes you to a complete circle of life
D.a(chǎn)llows you the time to judge the life
3.In the author’s opinion, the literature about chicken raising _____.
A.is full of hope and positive energy
B.proves the victory of good over evil
C.persuades you to believe in politicians
D.tends to be blindly optimistic about its rewards
4.What’s the author’s attitude towards parents’ dream of rise to success?
A.a(chǎn)pproving
B.optimistic
C.skeptical
D.indifferent

Could Organizing Your Home Change Your Life?
Marie Kondo is an expert on organizing and cleaning. She is considered an expert on clearing away unused or unnecessary things, better known as clutter. Actually, she did write a book on the issue, which is called “The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up”. 1. It has sold more than 2 million copies.
Marie Kondo says people can improve their lives by changing the way they think about all their stuff-- everything from books, documents and photographs to clothing and personal mementoes. “ 2. ” And this is pretty good.” Ms. Kondo writes.
This is not the first time an organizing expert has written a book on clutter. Other books suggest wonderful things will happen when you organize your home. One book says that if you throw out 50 things from your home, you will actually find your life 3. And still others promise a better job, more money and a perfect family if you simply organize the things that fill your life. 4. She told the Business Insider website that some of her clients have lost weight. “Your self-perception is improved by living in a clean and neat room,” she said. “This can change lifestyles and, in turn, appearances.”
Marie Kondo teaches a method of organizing she calls KonMari. It is more of an event or ceremony. This is the part that followers say makes it more lasting. Ms. Kondo says KonMari creates a different relationship between you and your possessions. If the object meant something to you or served you well, you thank it for its service before throwing or giving it away. In her book, Ms. Kondo suggests that you touch the item and ask one simple question: "Does it bring me joy?" 5.

A. Her book is a best-seller around the world
B. Marie Kondo makes some of the same claims
C. On the contrary, Marie Kondo disagrees with it.
D. Unnecessary things just take up too much space in your home.

Since American students have been introduced into the era of the Massive Open Online Course, the opportunity for cheating appears greater than ever. The all-knowing Google search engine is within easy reach. So how can a teacher handle such a large number of examinees so far away, let alone searching out cheaters taking tests across the Internet?
Using technology, of course. While special services via webcam (攝像頭) and cheating detecting software have been developed now, Mettl, an online company, has developed advanced techniques for netting cheaters, which the company claims are even more reliable and easier to use. Whatever small attempt to cheat, he or she will be found out.
Mettl has adopted a mass of technologies on its test-taking platform, creating a mini monitoring state in an exam. Here’s how it works: A test-taker signs on to Mettl and selects his/her exam from the site’s library of pre-loaded tests. Facial and keystroke recognition technology confirm the person that has signed in is the very person, and the system records both the test-taker (through the webcam) and the test-taker’s screen throughout the test.
Mettl’s technology uses the test-taker’s webcam to detect how many people are using the computer. Soon, it will track eye movement well enough to sense whether the test-taker is looking away from the screen, perhaps to consult a smart phone or a friend in secret. Mettl also monitors the test-taker’s screen and can detect when the test-taker has changed a computer or moved from the test. The system will soon be able to record sound, detecting whether the test-taker is talking or being talked to.
If any wrongdoings are detected, the system flags the incident and reports it back to the test’s administrator. This can bring any number of things, depending on the test-giver’s wishes: a complete shutdown of the exam, a warning message that appears on the test-taker’s screen, even human instructions from the control center.
Mettl is hoping its technology will help it break into the country’s big MOOC markets.
1.From the first paragraph we can infer that .
A. MOOC has replaced the traditional form of education
B. Teachers should be stricter in dealing with cheating
C. Preventing online cheating is a harder job
D. Google is a software designed for cheating
2.How can Mettl help to get rid of cheating online?
A. By equipping teachers with cameras.
B. By asking test-takers to sign in.
C. By providing different tests at a time.
D. By recording the test-takers’ behaviors.
3.We can conclude from the passage that the technology of Mettl is in the MOOC era.
A. unreliable B. promising
C. wasteful D. instructive
4.Which part of a newspaper does the article come from?
A. Health B. Entertainment
C. Education D. Culture

Directions:Read the passage carefully.Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.
Financial setbacks in the form of pay cuts are having a trickle-down effect(涓滴效應(yīng)) as the depression persists.Families across America are cutting or even axing kids’ allowances(零花錢) to reflect what’s going on with household finances and the economy as a whole.
Some jobless parents are doing it out of necessity.Other parents are using allowance adjustments to teach children about economic realities and how to budget in learner times.
‘Try to use relevant news to explain the reasons behind the depression and how it’s hitting home.If they see it obvious in their own allowance, they’ll feel the impact and see how it all ties in,’ says financial consultant Antwone Harris.
Any reduction in allowance should be understood in age-appropriate communication, says Dr.Tony Meyer, a child psychiatrist(精神科醫(yī)生) and medical director of Aurora Psychiatric Hospital.Six- to 12-year-olds are mature enough for a frank talk, but don’t set them back with a lot of details.It’s sufficient to say their allowance is lower because Mom or Dad is getting paid less at work, so there’s less money for the family to spend.With 12- to 18-year-olds, you can broaden the discussion to include the banking crisis and other factors that contributed to the depression, Meyer says.Younger kids have the idea that they’re at the center of things, and adolescents by mature are especially self-concerned.‘They’ll think they’re responsible,’ Meyer says.
A cut in allowance might seem punishing, so the message that the child is not at fault needs to come across.Depending on the child’s age, ‘You can also ask them to bring some income by working a job or helping more around the house so Mom or Dad can work more,’ he says.Kids can also contribute by means of taking over landscaping services previously done by a paid professional.‘You’ll pay lower rates, and the money stays in the family,’ financial consultant Antwone Harris remarks.Meyer also suggests implementing a stimulant program to cut household expenses.Anyone who comes up with a cost-cutting idea get 10 percent of the savings.
That way, they’ll come to understand that a paycheck only goes so far, and decisions and sacrifices are part of responsible money management.
(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.)
1.___________ is American families’ response to the financial depression.
2.What are both jobless and other parents using allowance adjustments to teach their children about?
3.When communicating with 12-to 18-year-olds about reduction in allowance, parents can broaden the discussion through ________.
4.Besides ‘working a job or helping more around the house’, what are the other two suggestions put forward by Meyer to bring some income to kids?
