     Finding summer jobs for teenagers has not always been easy, but now you no longer have to worry
about what your kid can do to earn their own money. Recently I found some different sites online that offer
information about what kids can do. Below is some of that information, along with questions to think about
to help you come up with your own ideas. Ideas for summer work:
● Parks and Recreation Programs.
● Babysitting (當(dāng)臨時保姆) during the day of school.
● Working part-time at a day care for the summer.
● Car washing.
● Working at local vegetable stands.
     The easiest way for you to find ways for your child to make money is to think about others' inconveniences
(不方便). Think of things you need done, or would like to have done, and what you would consider paying
for these things to get done. Once you have some ideas, you can sit down with your child and talk to them
about what they would be interested in doing. Then once you have an idea of what they want to do you can
help them come up with fair prices.
     Preferably you would want to only have your child working with people you know and trust, or in the least
bit you could have your child pick a partner. That way with each of them carrying cell phones, even those
without service can call 911, they will be much safer.
     You can find out more information and many more ideas for kids to use to make money during their summer
holidays by visiting http://www.kidswantmoney.com
1. The author wrote the passage to _____.
[     ]
A. share his discoveries online
B. introduce jobs for teenagers
C. advertise a website for teenagers
D. talk about his summer work experience
2. Which of the following is NOT considered when teenagers look for summer jobs?
[     ]
A. Who they'd better work for.
B. How much should be charged.

     A Northern Ireland team is leading a research to develop a thinking computer which can sense a
user's mood.Researchers at Queen's University in Belfast hope to complete the 10 million Euro
project for an emotionsensitive computer within four years.
     The aim is to enable computers to think and behave more like humans.The Europewide project is
being led by the university's School of Psychology and involves 160 researchers from 27 institutions.
The university's researchers developed the scheme and signed the contract with the European
Commission.The academics said the work will build upon attempts to create "multimodal interfaces
(多模式界面)" which allow machines to sense and respond to the moods of the user.
     Programme leader Professor Roddy Cowie said while it sounds like science fiction, computers
which respond to human emotion will appear in the future."At the moment, our use of computers is
limited by the fact that we need a keyboard and a screen to access them," he said."It would make a
big difference if we could interact with them by speaking normally-perhaps through a microphone and
a transmitter (傳感器)." But emotion is part of normal speech, and experience has shown that most
users are deeply uncomfortable with speech interfaces that ignore it-too uncomfortable to use them
very much."If we can make computers more intuitive (富于直覺的) and expressive, and also less
challenging to use, there is great potential to let people make fuller use of information technology."
     The emotionsensitive computer would have its own "personality" and establish a social relationship
with the user."It's a fair bet that in 30 years' time, emotionsensitive interfaces will be as much part of life
as windowandmouse interfaces are now," said Professor Cowie.The project team believes such computers will play a major role in teaching and learning.
1.Which of the following statements is TRUE about the project?
A.It aims to create an emotionsensitive computer.
B.It can create a 10 million Euro profit.
C.It is led by a Southern Ireland team.
D.It has been completed within four years.
2.How will computers sense users' moods?
A.Through a screen.
B.Through a keyboard.
C.Through the voice of users.
D.Through multimodal interfaces.
3.We can infer from the passage that a person's emotion________.
A.varies from time to time
B.is determined by his own personality
C.plays an important role in normal speech
D.makes people uncomfortable when one is speaking
4.What conclusion can we draw from the last paragraph?
A.Emotionsensitive computers can talk freely as human beings.
B.It will be difficult for people to use emotionsensitive computers.
C.Emotionsensitive computers have been widely used in teaching.
D.It will be common for people to use emotionsensitive computers in the future.
