“Years
ago
when
I
was
at
the
Grand
Canyon,
I
remembered
someone
coming
up
to
the
canyon's
edge,
taking
a
shot
with
a
camera and
then walking
away,
like
'got
it
–
done',
barely
even
glancing
at
the
magnificent
scene
in
front
of
him,”
Linda
Henkel,
a
scientist
at
Fairfield
University, US
told Live Science.
Henkel was surprised by how obsessed
(
痴迷的
) people are with taking
pictures these days -
before dinner,
during friends' birthday parties, on museum tours
and so on.
They keep
taking pictures because they think that it helps
record the moment, but as Henkel's
latest
study
has
just
found
out,
this
obsession
may
prevent
their
brains
remembering
what
actually happened,
reported
The
Guardian
.
In
her
study,
Henkel
led
a
group
of
college
students
around
a
museum
and
asked
them
to
simply
observe 15 objects and photograph 15 others. The
next day the students' memory of the
tour was tested, and the results showed
that they were less accurate in recognizing the
objects
and they remembered fewer
details about them if they photographed
them.
''When people rely
on technology to remember them
—
counting on the camera to
record the
event and thus not needing
to attend to it fully themselves, it can have a
negative impact on how
well they
remember their experiences,” Henkel
explained.
But
there
is also
an exception:
if
students
zoomed
in
to
photograph
part
of
an
object,
their
memory actually improved, and those who
focused the lens (
镜头
) on a
specific area could even
recall parts
that weren't in the frame.
So
basically,
this
study
is
saying
that
constantly
taking
pictures
can
harm
your
memory.
But
shouldn't reviewing pictures we have
taken help wake up our memories This is true, but
only if
we spend enough time doing
it.
“In
order
to remember, we have to access
and interact with the photos, rather than just
collect
them,” Henkel told
The Telegraph
. However,
previous research has shown that most people never
take the time to look over their
digital pictures simply because there are too many
of them and
they aren't usually very
organized on their computers.
（

）
Why
did the author mention Henkel's trip to the Grand
Canyon at the beginning
A. To complain about some tourists' bad
habits.
B. To give suggestions
on how to enjoy one's
tour.
C. To point out people's obsession with
taking pictures.
D. To describe
the beautiful view of
the Grand
Canyon.
（
2
）
What can we learn from Henkel's
study
A.
Reviewing pictures always helps people bring back
memories easily.
B. Taking
pictures in a
museum tour helps
students recognize objects better.
C. People
should
spend
more
time
taking
pictures
than
studying
real
objects.
D. Pictures
focusing on the
details of objects probably improve people's
memories.
（
3
）
The
underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 probably
refers to “________”.
A. the camera
B. technology
C. the event
D. an object
（

）
What is the article mainly about
A. People's
obsession
with
taking
pictures
and
its
influence.
B.
Possible
ways
of
using
pictures to improve
one's memory.
C. Great harm
to memory caused by taking pictures constantly.
D. A believable study into the
negative impact of lining cameras
often.

Parents may think they're smart
about where they store medicines, but their kids
are smarter.
Nearly 60,000 young
children are rushed to the hospital every year
after getting into medicines
not meant
for them, according to a new report from Safe Kids
Worldwide.
The report
finds little connection between what parents know
about storing medicines safely
and what
they actually do. Nine out of 10 parents know that
medicines should be stored up and
away
out of reach and sight, but 7 out of 10 of them
admit not doing that. They leave medicines
out on kitchen counters, sinks and
sofas, believing babies and
toddlers(
学步者
)aren't tall
enough
or strong enough to reach them.
Unfortunately, they probably can. Children as
young as a month
have
ended
up
in
an
emergency
department
because
they'd
been
poisoned
by
getting
into
a
medicine that was left within
reach.
Most poisonings
related to medicines---particularly among babies
and toddlers---occur within
their
home.
Kids
develop
rapidly
and
they
want
to
explore
their
environment.
At
certain
ages
they
have
a
lot
of
hand-to-mouth
activity,
and
so
it's
very
common
for
them
to
explore
their
environment and then try to taste what
they find.
The new Safe
Kids worldwide report includes a survey of 2,000
parents with children under age
6.
While the number of children visiting an emergency
department for accidental poisonings had
declined since the 2010 maximum, the
decline has slowed in recent years.
Prescription and over-the-counter
medicines cause the most severe poisonings, but
vitamins
and
supplements(
补充品
)can also
cause problems. There are steps families can take
to lower the
risk for an accidental
medicine poisoning.
（

）
Why
are children poisoned according to the text
A. Some of the medicines at
home taste nice.
B. There is
something poisonous in medicines.
C. Kids have easy access to medicines
at home..
D. Kids are

What
can we learn from the text
A. Vitamins and supplements can do good
to kids.
B. The team made a
survey of 2,000 kids under age 6.
C. 600 parents surveyed could keep
medicines properly.
D. Kids
are usually smart at storing medicines at
home.

What could be the best title for the
text
A. Parents'
Casual Behavior Leads to Kids Poisoned

Do you have a spare room in your
house What about a driveway for your car Both of
these can
help you make money. Many
people who are
feeling the pinch are
taking advantage of what's
been called
the “sharing economy”.
Perhaps
the
best-
known
example
of
a
company
in
this
field
is
Airbnb---an
American
web
business which allows
you to rent out your spare room to holidaymakers.
It says it operates in
34,000 cities
and it has over 1,500,000 seems to have concerned
the market!
A British
company is doing something with parking spaces.
JustPark's founder, Anthony Eskinazi,
says,“When
I had the
original idea, Ispotted a driveway close to a
sports stadium. It would have
been
so
convenient
if
I
could
have
just
parked
in
that
driveway
rather
than
in
commercial
car
park.” And he has a big
clientele
（客户）
:around 20,000
people have advertised their spaces on
the site, and he says around half a
million drivers use it. There are other sites
doing very similar
things,
like
Uber
and
Lyft---these

drivers

Kings
Cross

London

apparently made over
?200,000 by renting out space in its yard to
travelers!
Because this
is a new business world, those rules aren't there
yet and many people are happy
to
share...as long as it pays!
But the sharing economy has its critics: the
competitors of these new companies. People who
run things like traditional B&B,
commercial car parks and taxi services are afraid
of ending up out
of pocket. And there
is another issue: regulations on these new
business are unclear. How will
renting

Exploring was a more popular idea back

It was in
a tree, too, that our days of fooling around in
the woods came to an end. By then
some

rough ride of adolescence
(

March,
the month when we usually took to the woods again
after winter, two friends and I set
out

was filled with trees and abundant
food, while on the wrong side there was hardly any

crowded together. The Mokoko had the misfortune of
having always lived
there, with no way
to cross to the other side. Their life was hard
and they lived in permanent
terror of
the beasts.
Along the
edge of the cliff separating the two sides, a
skinny but strong tree grew, with which
they could build two poles. There was
no doubt that the tribe would choose the great
chief and
doctor to use the poles. But
when the two of them were given their chance to
make the jump,
they didn't dare to.
They thought that the pole could break or it would

It is bad to have food
stuck between your teeth for long periods of time.
This is because food
attracts
germs;
germs
produce
acid,
and
acid
hurts
your
teeth
and
gums.
Flossing
(
使用牙线
)
helps to remove the food that gets
stuck between your teeth. This explains why
flossing helps to
keep your mouth
healthy, but some doctors say that flossing can
also be good for your heart.
It may seem strange that something
you do for your teeth can have any effect on your
heart.
Doctors have come up with a few
ideas about how flossing works to keep your heart
healthy. One
idea is that the germs
that hurt your teeth can leave the mouth and
travel into your that get into
the
blood can then attack your heart. Another idea is
based on the fact that when there are too
many germs in your mouth, the body
tries to fight against there germs. For some
reason, the way
the body fights these
mouth germs may end up weakening the heart
overtime.
Not
every
doctor
agrees about
these
ideas.
Some
doctors
think
that
the
link

good
flossing
habits
and
good
heart
health
is

relationship between them. For example,
every time I wash my car, it rains. This does not
mean
that when I wash my car, I somehow
change the weather. This is only a coincidence.
Similarly,
some
doctors
think
that
people
who
have
bad
flossing
habits
just
happen
to
also
have
heart
problems, and people who have good
flossing habits just happen to have healthy
hearts.
The theory that
flossing your teeth helps to keep your heart
healthy might not be true. But
every
doctor agrees that flossing is a
great
way to keep your teeth healthy. So even if
flossing
does not help your heart, it
is true to help your teeth. This is enough of a
reason for everyone to
floss their
teeth every day.

Mrs. Jones was my
first patient when I started medical
school
—
and I owe her a
lot.
She
was
under
my
care
for
the
first
two
years
of
my
medical
training,
yet
I
knew very
little
about her, except that she was thin,
perhaps in her mid 70s. It might seem rather
negligent not to
know the basic facts
of my patient ,but I had a valid
reason
—
Mrs. Jones was dead,
and had been
dead for about three years
before I made a patient of her. Mrs. Jones was the
dead body that I
dissected
（解剖）
over
the first two years of my medical
training.
Of course, her
name wasn't really Mrs. Jones, but it seemed a
little impolite to be conducting
research into someone's body without
even knowing its name, so out of courtesy, I
thought she
should have one. “Me and
Mrs. Jones, we've got a thing going on,” went the
song coming out of
the radio as I
unzipped the bag of her on my first day
—
and so she was
christened.
As
the
months
passed,
I soon
forgot
that
Mrs.
Jones
had,
in
fact,
once
been
alive. One
day,
though,
she
suddenly
became
very
human
again.
I'd
been
dissecting
Mrs.
Jones
a
good
18
months before I got
around to the uterus
（子宫）
.
After I'd removed it, the professor came up
to me, “If you
look at the opening carefully, you'll see that the
angle indicates that this woman
has
had
several
children,
probably
three.”
I
stared
at
it,
and
I
suddenly
felt
very
strange.
This
woman,
who
had
given
me
something
incredibly
precious
that
I'd
begun
to
take
for
granted,
wasn't a dead body. She was a person, a
mother, in fact.
At
my
graduation,
the
same
professor
came
over
to
congratulate
me.
I
explained
the
story
about Mrs. Jones to
him, and recalled what he'd told me about her
having children and how that
had
affected me all those years ago.
“Well,” he said, “at the
beginning of your training you had a dead body and
managed to turn it
into a person. Now
you're a doctor, the trick is to have a person and
not turn them into a dead
body,” and he
laughed, shook my hand and walked away.
（

Why
didn't the author know much about Mrs. Jones
A. Because he was
irresponsible for his patients.
B. Because he wasn't allowed to ask for
her privacy.
C. Because he
didn't know her until she passed away.
D. Because he was too careless while
dissecting her.

How
did Mrs. Jones get her name
A. It was passed down from the seniors
of my school.

met.

D. It just occurred to me when I opened
the bag of her.

feeling for Mrs. Jones now

professor imply by his words in the last paragraph
A. Medical students are

be
a
one-time
event
focusing
on
technology
and
design.
The
event
ended
up
losing
money,
and
it
was
six
years
before
the
founders
tried
it
again.
This
time
it
worked,
and
since
1990,
the
TED
conference
has
been
an
annual event. There are now two held
every year, with topics as diverse as music,
medicine, and
money. Other specialized
spin-off conferences address narrower
issues.
The TED website
came from a desire to share the conferences with
the world, to
knowledge from the
world's most inspired thinkers,
the site
was launched in April 2007, and contains videos of
talks given at
the TED conferences
around the world. The talks are
transcribed into hundreds of languages.
The
TED
website
is
owned
by
the
Sapling
Foundation,
a
non
profit
devoted
to
fostering
the
spread
of
great
ideas.
The
Sapling
foundation
acquired
TED
in
2001.
Since
then,
it
has
been
focusing on using TED to broadcast
ideas that might change the world.
TED, of course, isn't immune to
criticism. It's been called
elitist(
精英
) for its high
ticket prices
(more than 6,000 dollars
total). It's been accused by a few people of
censorship for not publishing
their
talks. One controversial speaker was upset about
being criticized by the conference's host
afterward.
The complaints, however, seem to be relatively few
for such a large, long-running organization.
