Ecobee3 Smarter WiFi Thermostat

Smart thermostat

s have become the face of smart home technology for most, but

depending on what your home is like, it’s possible to say

the ecobee3

is superior.

Most of the

smart thermostats carry the same benefits, including

the ecobee3

. They

can learn your preferences and schedules, and then adjust the temperature

accordingly. They’re better

-looking and more enjoyable to use than the basic

pieces of plastic that occupy most households. Their very presence will probably

make you more conscious

about saving energy. And once you’re able to heat up or cool down your house

from your phone, without

having to get out of bed, you won’t want to go back.

If you live in a larger household, the ecobee3 can be much more convenient

—

provided you pick up a

couple more remote sensors

. Yes, it gets pretty expensive at that point, but having those gives you

effective control over the temperature in different rooms around your house. In comparison, other

thermostats’ measurements are largely limited to the area in which they’ re installed (

安装

).

If you live in a smaller place, that’s no big deal; the ecobee3 still has distinct advantages. It is

touch-enabled and more spacious, making it less annoying when you want to enter a WiFi password,

see weather information, and so on.

Still, all the smart thermostats are pretty great. Which one is best just depends on whether you need

a whole-

home solution or a more straightforward one. For now, if it’s the former, go with the ecobee3.

Ecobee3 Smarter WiFi Thermostat with Remote Sensor, available at all

shopping websites.

36. What is the function of the ecobee3?

A. Planning schedules.

B. Making decoration.

C. Adjusting temperatures.

D. Storing information.

37. According to the passage, one of the advantages of the ecobee3 is that ______.

A. it can be operated easily by phone

B. it has different sizes

C. it is a product without using energy

D. it follows the same pattern

38. What makes the ecobee3 superior?

A. It costs less than those similar products.

B. It may work without access to WiFi networks.

C. It is more effective with fewer remote sensors.

D. It can control the temperature in a larger area.

B

Dream in Heart

On the first day of school our professor introduced a new classmate

—

a wrinkled little old

lady

—

to us. Her name was Rose, and she was eighty-seven years old.

After class Rose and I walked to the Student Union Building and shared a chocolate milk-shake.

She told me she always dreamed of having a college education and now she was getting one. We

became instant friends. Every day for the following months, we would leave class together and talk

nonstop. I was always attracted, listening to this “ time machine” as she shared her wisdom and

experience with me.

Rose became famous and easily made friends wherever she went. She tended to be highly

motivated,responsible, and deeply involved in class participation. In spare time she had someone hang

out or go to bars with. She even participated in some form of athletic activity. She said that

extra- curricular activities can form a vital part of her experience, creating unique chances for

friendship and learning.

At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football meal. A little embarrassed, she

l

eaned into the microphone and simply said, “ I’ m sorry I’ m so nervous.” As we laughed, she cleared

her throat and began, “ We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop

playing. There is a huge difference between growing older an

d growing up. If you’ re nineteen years

old and lie in bed for one full year, you will turn twenty. If I’ m eighty

-seven years old and stay in bed

for a year, I will turn eighty-

eight. Anybody can grow older. It’ s non

-

optional but that doesn’ t take

any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the chance in change. In this way the

elderly don’ t have regrets for what they did, but rather for things they did not do.” Rose concluded her

speech by courageously singing “ The Rose” . She chal

lenged us to study the words of the song and

lived them out in daily lives.

At the year’ s end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week

after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over two thousand college students attended her

funeral in honor of the wonderful woman who taught by example that it’ s never too late to be all you

can possibly be.

39. Why does the author compare Rose to “ time machine” in Paragraph 2?

A. To stress her old age and knowledge of life.

B. To describe the close friendship between them.

C. To show that she always enjoyed her active life.

D. To explain why she took on a challenge in college.

40. Rose was invited to speak at the football meal most probably because ______.

A. she was a great football fan

B. she was the smartest student

C. she tried hard to achieve her dream

D. she became more educated than the others

41. We can learn that Rose agreed with the idea that ______.

A. growing older means growing up

B. it takes talent and ability to grow up

C. receiving high education helps to be courageous

D. one grows older at the same time when he grows up

42. The passage is intended to ______.

A. provide an example for the elderly

B. discuss how to grow up quickly

C. tell the importance of attending college

D. inspire the readers to live up to lives
