Eventually all suns will their fuel, explode and then become cold and dark.Matter itself will disappear and the universe will become for the rest of time.
This was the general drift of my thoughts as my wife and I my eldest son as a freshman at college.That moment at the dorm is at the kindergarten door, at the gates of summer camp, at every occasion of parting and .But it comes surprising, taking what you most.
Our ancestors thought this parting should take place .In many societies adolescents were sent away to live with friends or relatives right after adolescence.This was supposed to the conflicts that come from teenagers and their parents very near.
Eighteen years is not enough.The days pass uncounted, until they .The adjustment is upsetting.My son is on the side --- observant, thoughtful, a practitioner of companionable silence.I know this is hard on him as well.He will be homesick.Among the greatest of college students is they won’t have a room at home to return to.
But with due respect to my son’s feelings, I have the of parting.I know something he doesn’t --- incomprehensible to the young.He is experiencing the that come with beginnings.His life is starting for real.I have begun the long letting go.Put another way: He has a wonderful future in which my part decreases.
I’m sure my father realized it at a(n) moment.And I certainly didn’t notice or understand.At first, he was a giant who held my hand and my sky.Then a middle-aged man who paid my bills.Now, decades after his passing, a much-loved .But I can remember the last time I hugged him in his home, where I always had a room.I can only hope to leave my son the same.
My son, those days have been the greatest wonder and of my life.And there will always be a for you.

Speaking from my past experience, it is very difficult to find good friends that you can trust but once you have found them, they are worth keeping forever! Therefore, I think friendship is the most important relationship that anybody could have.
The qualities I look for in a friend are a good sense of humor but sensitivity when it matters. Also that friend would have to be strong-minded and highly spirited. I think that these qualities are the key qualities to look for in a good friend.
Even the strongest friends can still have arguments, although usually about more serious topics, rather than the usual teenage childish arguments. Some matters can seriously affect a friendship. If one of your friends started experimenting with harmful and dangerous drugs, what would you do ? A good friend would try to help as much as possible, whereas a bad example of a friend would simply shrug(聳肩) and turn a blind eye.
Not only the bad things affect friendship ---- good activities do too. Such as bonding with one another, not just by going out on a night with them but by spending quality time with them and talking to each other, which indicates a good ability to communicate. This is a key aspect of a good friendship.
Good friends do not always have to be in the same age group as you. I have a good friend and she is 47 years old and I am 16.
Unfortunately, some people lose contact with their friends as they grow older, which is a sad way to lose a good friend.
I think friendship is one of the most important things in life because if you have no friends you will have no happiness.
1.According to the author, true friendship _______.
A. is easy to get
B. deepens with time
C. needs management
D. affects one’s happiness
2.Paragraph 3 is mainly about______.
A. why drugs are bad for teenagers
B. problems that will test friendship
C. ways that help avoid arguments
D. whether a friend is trustworthy
3.According to the author, which matters least in friendship?
A. Age. B. Sensitivity.
C. Sense of humor. D. Communication ability.
4.Which of the following saying can match the author’s view on friendship?
A. Old friends and old wines are best.
B. A friend without faults will never be found.
C. A life without a friend is a life without the sun.
D. a friend to everybody is a friend to nobody.

Showrooming
One of the biggest challenges facing brick-and-mortar retailers(實(shí)體零售店) in recent years has been the “showrooming”.Driven by the desire to get the best prices, many shoppers are now visiting brick-and-mortar stores to personally check on products that interest them, only to leave and then buy the items online.The new trend is forcing retailers to find out new ways to keep consumers from leaving their store for cheaper prices online.
Recent research found that 40 percent of U.S.shoppers have showroomed previously, with big-box retailers suffering the most.Specifically, the study shows that Best Buy, Walmart and Target are the most likely brick-and-mortar stores to have shoppers test out a product in-store and then purchase it online later, while Amazon is benefiting most from the practice, with nearly 60 percent of shoppers using the online retail giant(巨人) most often to make their showrooming purchases.
Smartphones have pushed showrooming into the front.Shoppers no longer have to wait until they get home to see if they can find a cheaper price for the products they’re considering buying.With smartphones, consumers can now compare virtual prices, at both other brick-and-mortar stores and online ones while still inside a retail store.If they can find what they’re seeking for less online, the majority will be seeking the first exit.A recent study showed that 45 percent of customers shopping at brick-and-mortar stores walk out and buy their purchase online for a discount of as little as 2.5 percent.
This puts pressure on retailers to provide both an in-store experience worth staying for and an online presence that can attract shoppers who are showrooming in other businesses.
To cut down on showrooming, many retailers are adopting new methods to keep shoppers in their stores.Among the steps they’re taking are price-matching guarantees that allow shoppers to pay a discounted price if they find it cheaper online.This ensures that even a showrooming shopper can make the purchase in the store—regardless of whether they find the cheaper price online.
Another popular method to fight against showrooming is to give shoppers the ability to buy something online and pick it up at the store.This reduces shipping costs and gets customers in the store, where they may be encouraged to make an additional purchase.
It is also important for businesses to take into consideration what makes shoppers purchase something in-store rather than online, and meet those needs.Research has found that more than 8 in 10 Americans consider being able to take the goods home immediately and the ability to touch and feel them—the most important aspects when deciding to purchase in a store rather than online.
1.According to the passage, a showrooming shopper tends to ______.
A. pay for everything online
B. have better bargaining skills
C. rush to buy things in a store
D. purchase online for a lower price
2.What contributes to the growing popularity of showrooming?
A. The wide use of smartphones.
B. The competition between big stores.
C. The advertisement by online retail giants.
D. The decline of the brick-and-mortar stores.
3.The underlined words “seeking the first exit” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.
A. searching for lower prices
B. leaving as soon as possible
C. locating the first exit quickly
D. making a purchase on the spot
4.The last three paragraphs mainly talk about ways of ______.
A. increasing sales at stores
B. preventing purchase online
C. satisfying customers’ needs
D. advising shoppers to buy more

China is going green.In order to reduce air pollution and oil-shortages, car makers have announced their plans to develop hybrid(混合燃料)cars for the Chinese market.Toyota’s hybrid car Prius will be ready to drive in China this week.Let’s have a look at the new car.
Any vehicle is a hybrid car when it combines two or more sources of power.Hybrid cars have special engines, which are smaller than traditional gasoline engine.They run at 99 percent of their power when the car is going at a steady speed. A specially designed battery motor provides extra power for running up hills or when extra speed-up is needed.
Step into a Prius, and turn on the engine.The first thing you notice is how much quieter it is than a traditional car.At this point, the car’s gasoline engine is at rest.The electric motor will provide power until the car reaches about 24 kilometers per hour.If you stay at a low speed, you are effectively driving an electric car, with no gasoline being used, and no waste gas gives off.
The computer makes the decision about when to use a gas engine, when to go electric, and when to use a combination of the two.If you go over 24 kilometers per hour, when you step on the gas, you are actually telling the computer how fast you want to go.
The electronic motor recharges automatically using a set of batteries.When driving at a high speed, the gasoline engine not only powers the car, but also charges the batteries.
Any time you use the brake, the electric motor will work like a generator(發(fā)電機(jī))and produce electricity to recharge the batteries.As a result, the car’s batteries will last for around 200,000 miles.
1.Which of the following pictures can show how the power system of Prius works correctly?(W—Wheel of the car, E.M—electric motor, G.E—gasoline engine, C—computer, B—batteries)
A.
B.
C.
D.
2.What is the most important characteristic of hybrid cars?
A. They are powered by both a rechargeable battery and gasoline.
B. They have smaller engines than traditional gasoline ones.
C. They use only 99 percent of their power to run up hills.
D. They are much quieter than traditional cars.
3.We can know from the report that ___________.
A. the batteries can be recharged at any time you want
B. using the brake suggests that the gasoline engine should work
C. the gasoline engine charges the batteries as well as powering the car
D. the car’s batteries will last for around 200,000 miles without being recharged
4.The author writes this passage mainly to ___________.
A. announce plans to develop hybrid cars for the Chinese market
B. let people know how to save their gasoline when driving a car
C. teach people how to drive a hybrid car
D. introduce a new kind of “green” car
