Huawei Technologies Co. displayed its much-anticipated in-house operating system Harmony


OS on Friday, marking what some call the Chinese tech giant's biggest push yet to build its own


software ecosystem for the era of the internet of things.




The


move


is


also


expected


to


weaken


the


influence


of


the


United


States


government's


restrictions on Huawei using Google's Android operating system in smartphones, analysts said.



Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei's consumer business group, speaking in Dongguan, Guangdong


province, said it is difficult to deliver a smooth experience across different devices with the huge


amount of codes involved in the Android and Linux operating systems. Linux is an open-source


operating system widely used in personal computers and other hardware.




adding that it will be able to support a wide range of application situations, including smart TVs,


automobiles and wearables.



The internet of things refers to a network of devices and other objects that can connect with


each other and exchange data.




Yu


said


the


US


government's


restrictions


have


accelerated


the


company's


marketing


of


the


system, which now has about 4,000 employees working on it.



The senior executive said Harmony can be used in its smartphones. But Android is still Huawei's


preferred choice for handsets if the company is allowed to use it.





when


Android


is


not


available,


Harmony


can


be


applied


immediately


to


smartphones.


Harmony is ready,




Jia


Mo,


an


analyst


at


market


research


company


Canalys,


said


even


if


Huawei


does


not


use


Harmony in its smartphones in the short term, its smartwatches and smart TVs can be equipped


with Harmony to widen its use and accumulate more experience in building an ecosystem.




and


allow


it


to


be


compatible


with


Android.


Thus


Harmony


will


be


more


accepted


by


current


Android


users.


This


will


prevent


Huawei


from


repeating


the


fate


of


Microsoft


in


promoting


smartphone systems,

For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any


clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about


boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?



Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is


because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents' point


of


view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents' complete unreasonableness. And of course,


the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.




In


this


article,


I'll


describe


three


no-win


situations


that


commonly


arise


between


teens


and


parents


and


then


suggest


some


ways


out


of


the


trap.


The


first


no-win


situation


is


quarrel


on


unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen's hair, the cleanness of the bedroom,


the


preferred


style


of


clothing,


the


child's


failure


to


eat


a


good


breakfast


before


school,


or


his


tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is


to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third,


needing


to


be


right.


It


doesn't


matter


what


the


topic


is



politics,


the


laws


of


physics,


or


the


proper way to break an egg



the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the


other


person


is


wrong,


for


both


wish


to


be


considered


an


authority



someone


who


actually


knows


something



and


therefore


to


command


respect.


Unfortunately,


as


long


as


parents


and


teens


continue


to


assume


that


they


know


more


than


the


other,


they'll


continue


to


fight


these


battles forever and never make any real progress.




1



Why does the author compare the parent teen war to a border conflict?



A. Both can continue for generations. B. Both are about where to draw the line.



C. Neither has any clear winner.


D. Neither can be put to an end.




2



What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?



teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.



teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict.



teens accuse their parents of misleading them.



teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents.




3



Parents and teens want to be right because they want to__________.



orders to the other



more than the other



respect from the other



the other to behave properly

What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?

I


visited


Elba


last


June,


joining


Mary


and


John


on


a


bicycling


vacation.


They


made


the


arrangements for the car, hotel and bicycles. I studied the history of the island, which of course


particularly features Napoleon.



Napoleon (now I know) picked Elba as a place for peace when he was forced to give up the


throne (


王权


) as Emperor of France in 1814. Far from being a prison island, Elba is beautiful with


towering mountains, thick forests and sweeping bays and beaches.



It is also an island filled with treasure. Very early on this island, locals discovered rich deposits


of


iron.


Soon


outsiders,


too,


discovered


the


iron


and


150 other valuable


minerals on


this


little


piece of land. Long before Etruscans and other Greeks set foot on it, Dorians had moved in by the


tenth century B. C. and were mining the island. The Romans ruled next, obtaining the minerals


and building grand houses overlooking the sea. From the twelfth century until the nineteenth,


the island was traded back and forth and was passed to France in 1802. Then came Napoleon, the


new ruler of Elba.



I was eager to visit his house in Portoferraio. The Emperor lived with his court and his mother,


but his wife, Marie Louise had ensconced herself in the splendid Viennese palace of her father,


Emperor of Austria. She lived safely there and showed little interest in visiting her husband in his


mini-kingdom.


Apparently,


Napoleon


wasn't


troubled


much


by


this.


He


was


too


busy


riding


everywhere on horseback, building roads, modernizing agriculture and, above all, sharpening his


tiny army and navy into readiness for his escape.



In the formal gardens behind the house it seemed to me that I could imagine the exiled (


流放



) conqueror's anxious thoughts. He might gaze over where I stood now, toward the lighthouse


of the Stella fort, the sandy bay, and across it, the green mountains of the Tuscan coast. Napoleon


spent only ten months here before making his victorious return to France and the throne.

What did the author do for the visit to Elba?



A. He did research on its past.


B. He arranged transportation.



C. He planned bicycling routes.


D. He booked accommodation.

Who might be the earliest outsiders to Elba according to the text?

Being forgiving to yourself and others can protect against stress and the harm it does to mental


health, according to a new study in the Journal of Health Psychology.



Researchers looked at the effects of lifetime stress on a person's mental health, and how more


forgiving people got along compared with people who weren't so forgiving. To do this, they asked


148


young


adults


to


fill


out


questionnaires


that


assessed


their


levels


of


lifetime


stress,


their


tendency to forgive and their mental and physical health.



No surprise, people with greater exposure to stress had worse mental and physical health. But


the

that


if

In 1953, a mountain climber reported seeing a bar-headed goose soar over the peak of Mount


Everest (


珠穆朗玛


).


It was


thought


impossible.


Now researchers


who raised 19


of


the


geese



named for the black stripes on the backs of their heads



have shown the birds really fly so high.




The


team


trained


the


youngsters


to


fly


in


a


large


wind


tunnel


wearing


backpacks


and


face


masks


full


of


sensors


that


recorded


their


heart


rate.


blood


oxygen


levels,


temperature,


and


metabolic rate



how many calories they burned per hour. The researchers simulated(


模拟


)10w-,


medium-, and high-altitude conditions by altering the concentration of oxygen supplied to face


masks worn by each goose as it flew in the tunnel.



Birds already have a better heart and lungs than mammals for sustained physical activity. And


researchers knew that bar-headed geese have even larger, thinner lungs that let them breathe


more deeply and an even bigger heart to pump more oxygen to muscles than other birds.



The wind tunnel experiments showed that when the concentration of oxygen was at its lowest-


like the 7% found on top of Mount Everest versus 21% at sea level



the geese's heart rate and


frequency of wing beats remained the same even as their metabolic rate dropped. Somehow, the


birds managed to cool down their blood-the measured blood temperature dropped so it could


take in more oxygen, the researchers report today in


eLife


. This cooling likely helps compensate


for the very thin air, the team says.



Although well trained, the birds were only willing to stay in the air a few minutes-or less when


wearing


their


backpacks


and


flying


at


6ihigh


altitudes.


So


it's


not


clear


whether


these


adaptations


alone


are


what


make


it


possible


to


fly


the


8


hours


it


takes


to


climb


over


Mount


Everest. But those few minutes showed these geese really could fly over the top of Mount Everest.




1



Why did the researchers raise 19 bar-headed geese and train them?



A. To test the flying height and speed of them.



B. To confirm they could fly over Mount Everest.



C. To observe them flying through the wind tunnel.



D. To see how many calories they burned per hour.




2



What can we learn from the wind tunnel experiment?



A. It was carried out at very high altitude.



B. The geese managed to breathe less when their blood decreased.



C. The geese could live through the lowest concentration of oxygen.



D. It shows the geese could fly at high altitude for long.




3


What still puzzles scientists about the geese?



A. Whether they have super hearts and lungs.



B. Whether they have muscles pumped more oxygen to.



C. Whether they are willing to wear backpacks and face masks.



D. Whether they can manage to fly 8 hours to climb over Mount Everest.

Where does the text most probably come from?



A. A science fiction.


B. A climbing guide.


C. A travel brochure.


D. A science report.

When


Shakespeare


was


twenty-one,


he


went


to


London,


a


very


interesting


place,


to


try


his


fortune.



There was the famous London Bridge and St. Paul's Cathedral, and palaces and markets and


long streets full of shops.



Then, too, there were the daily crowds where could be seen people from all over the world.


Knights, scholars and the highwayman (


拦路强盗)


or thieves, who had been infamous for their


clever robberies, passed by each other.




Here,


also,


were


noblemen


dressed


in


gold,


from


Italy


and


Spain


and


France;


slaves


from


Spanish


America,


sea


captains


and


ministers,


soldiers


and


servants



all


held


by


chances


or


interests within the gray walls which circled London, and whose gates gave welcome to as strange


a crowd as could be found in the world.



Into this curious crowd came Shakespeare, quick to see and eager to learn. And before long all


these strange sights were as familiar to him as the faces of his own town's residents. Each one


told its story to him so plainly that, as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and woods,


so now he learned men and men's interests that make up the great world.



And he learned these lessons so well that when he came to write his plays, he made such use


of them as no writer ever made before or since; for it is the use of this knowledge of the world,


combined with his own genius, that makes Shakespeare the greatest dramatist that has ever lived.
