Brandon Holley, the former editor of Lucky magazine, had trouble 38 her iPhone when she got home from work. So about six months ago, she 39 putting her phone into a milk tin the moment she walked in it remains there until after dinner.

colleagues and family creates a real obstacle in trying to 49 private time. But that private time is more important than ever.”
A popular method for disconnecting is to choose a box for your cellphone, like the milk tin that MS. Holley uses. “ 50 my phone is buzzing or lighting up, it’s still a distraction, so it 51 in the box.” said Ms. Holley. Others choose new 52 . “No screens after 11 p. m.” said Ari Melber, a TV host. “We found the evenings were more ___53 and we were sleeping better.” he added.

In today’s households where both parent go to work and kids have busy schedules with school homework and many afternoon activities, finding time for a gathering at the table seems all but impossible. Yet, studies have shown time and again that eating together has multiple benefits for family members, especially children.
According to reports issued by the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia
University(CASA), children who eat more with their family are at lower risk of developing poor eating habits, weight problems or alcohol dependencies. They tend to perform better academically than those who frequently eat alone. Family meals came into American life in the mid-20th century. In the 60’s and 70’s, social, economic and technological changes quickly dissolved the short-lived way of family meals. Restaurant visits, take-out and TV dinners have since become the norm.
There are indicators, however, that the old customs are coming back. According to the latest CASA reports, 59% of surveyed families said they ate diner together at least five times a week, a significant increase from 47% in 1998. Whatever drives this trend, it is a development that should be welcomed.
Eating together as a family is not just about food and nutrition. It is about teaching them how to become members of their society and culture. Food as become so easily and cheaply available that we no longer appreciate
its significance. We have to rediscover its importance and its value. Sharing a meal with loved ones should be considered a special event, which can almost take on the form of a ceremony, as it was practiced by our ancestors for whom finding food was a constant struggle.
Of course, there is no guarantee that the simple act of eating at home surrounded by family may make children more virtuous or socially more responsible. But it can lay the groundwork for a lot of things that point them in the right direction.
58. What does the underlined sentence suggest? A. Dining at home would enjoy great popularity. B. The society was to develop at a rapid speed. C. This practice of family meals started to change. D. Americans would attach importance to take-out.
59. What is the writer’s attitude towards eating together as a family? A. Disapproving.
B. Favorable.
C. Reserved.
D. Objective.
60. From the passage we learn our ancestors possibly _____. A. valued the education of children
B. liked struggling with each other C. appreciated the importance of food
D. cared much about food nutrition
61. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. Family Dinners Benefit Kids B. Good Eating Habits Matter C. Meals Take on New Meanings
D. Old Customs Are Coming Back
C
Five or six years ago, I attended a lecture on the science of attention. A professor who conducts research over in the medical school was talking about attention blindness, the basic feature of the human brain that, when we concentrate on one task, causes us to miss just about everything else. Because we can’t see what we can’t see, our lecturer was determined to catch us in the act. He had us watch a video of six people tossing (投掷) basketballs back and forth, three in white shirts and three in black, and our task was to keep track only of the tosses among the people in white. The tape rolled, and everyone began counting.
Everyone except me. I’m dyslexic (患阅读困难症的), and the moment I saw that tape with the confusing basketball tossers, I knew I wouldn’t be able to keep track of their movements, so I let my mind wander. I became curious, though, when about 30 seconds into the tape, a gorilla (大猩猩) walked in among the players. She (we later learned a female student was in the gorilla suit) stared at the camera, beat her chest with her fist, and then went
away while they continued passing the balls.
bbbWhen the tape stopped, the professor asked how many people had counted at least a dozen basketball tosses. Hands went up all over. He then asked who had counted 13, 14, and congratulated those who’d scored the perfect 15. Then he asked, “And who saw the gorilla?”
I raised my hand and was surprised to discover I was the only person at my table and one of only three or four in the large room to do so. He’d set us up, trapping us in our own attention blindness. Yes, there had been a trick, but he wasn’t the one who had played it on us. By concentrating so hard on counting, we had managed to miss the gorilla in the midst.
Attention blindness is the fundamental organizing principle of the brain, and I believe that it presents us with a great opportunity. My take is different from that of many neuroscientists: Where they see the shortcomings of the individual, I sense an opportunity for cooperation. Fortunately, given the interactive (互动的) nature of most of our lives in the digital age, we have the tools to control our different forms of attention and take advantage of them.
It’s not easy to admit that everything we’ve learned about how to pay attention means that we’ve been missing everything else. It’s not easy for us logical, intelligent, confident types to admit that the very key to our success — our ability to discover a problem and solve it, an achievement obtained in all those years in school and beyond — may be exactly what limits us. No one ever told us that our way of seeing left out everything else. 62. Which of the following is true about the writer when the tape was played? A. Like everyone else, the writer was counting carefully.
B. The writer showed great curiosity about what the players were doing. C. The writer had difficulty keeping track of the tossers’ movements. D. The writer tried hard to stop her mind from wandering.
63. Most of the people failed to notice the gorilla in the video because _____. A. they were trapped by the basketball players B. they focused on the basketball tossing only C. they did not know what they were supposed to do D. they did not listen to the lecture carefully
64. The word “take” (paragraph 5) most probably means _____. A. preference B. impression C. scene D. understanding 65. In the writer’s opinion, attention blindness ______. A. should be viewed as a shortcoming of the individual
B. might be overcome if we can discover problems and solve them C. helps us to become logical, intelligent and confident types of people D. makes it possible for us to work together for a shared purpose
D
Yesterday I work up to the sound of music on my couch in my fifth floor apartment downtown. I couldn’t possibly tell you what song was playing because my monologue of things to do that day had already begun. My thoughts ranged from what deals needed my attention today to what is the meaning of life. I felt as if it was going to be one of “those days”.
After taking my son to school and glancing at my calendar, I noticed I was meeting my 85-year-old friend Harry. I remembered that we first met at a glass shop. I needed a new window and he was talking to the store clerk about his glass fireplace insert needing replacement. As I stood behind him in line, I found not how this old man funny and compassionate at the same time. By the end of his discussion I was so entertained that I decided to drum up a conversation whit him. That was how our friendship began. I later learned this gentleman was originally from the mid-west and grew up on a farm. At 17, he joined the army and travelled the world until his late 40’s. After hi retirement, his wife passed away and now he lives alone in his three-bedroom home.
We met at the appointed time. I promised to take him to lunch anywhere he wanted to go and he said, “I am a simple man; let’s go to Taco Bell. Furthermore I don’t need a pat on the back because it is only 18 inches away from a kick in the rear.” We both laughed as we got into the car.
As we pulled into the parking lot of Taco Bell, Harry jumped out of the car and told me, “I have to go into the donut(甜甜圈)shop next door before going to Taco Bell.” Of course I agreed and in we went. He immediately walked in and began having a joke with the owner of the shop in his fashion. They bantered as she gave him a dozen donuts and off we went. I couldn’t help but ask him, “What are the donuts for?” He quickly replied, “You will soon see.” As we opened the door to Taco Bell, the line was very long. It was lunch time. People were on their cell phones. Babies were crying and the waiters looked stressed and burnt out. Harry and I were waiting in line chatting about nothing until we reached the front of the line. As he walked to the counter, all the waiters began smiling. He placed the box of donuts on the counter and said, “These are for you and other staff.” Instantly, the mood in the restaurant changed. This single act of kindness made the customers, the waiters, the kids and even me take a look internally and ask: when was the lat time we did something nice for a stranger?
What was most amazing to me was earlier that morning I wasn’t thrilled with my life. It felt like it was just another day. Watching this gentleman spend 6 dollars on donuts and provide them for the staff in a packed
restaurant at the lunch rush hour changed my outlook on life. If you don’t believe me, try it yourself. Take the approach in life that you make an effort to do the little things in order to make people feel appreciated on a daily basis. You will see that your life will be better and you will have less of “those days” I was talking about earlier in this article.
66. The “those days” in Paragraph 1 implies that the author_______. A. was in a good mood B. was anxious about his life C. was a little bored with his life and work D. was well prepared for his work 67. Why did Harry buy donuts before going to the restaurant? A. To comfort the waiters in the restaurant. B. To give the author a pleasant surprise. C. To avoid standing in line in the restaurant. D. To give a present to the owner of the restaurant 68. The mood in the restaurant changed because______
A. Harry gave people there a speech B. people felt embarrassed about the act C. Harry was deeply respected there D. people were moved by the kind act 69. Which of the following best describes Harry? A. Calm and wise B. Old and determined C. Kind and humorous D. Simple and serious
70. What does the author intend to tell us through the passage? A. An old horse knows the way
B. Even a small act of kindness makes a difference C. It’s important for people to respect each other D. Never take your job for granted.

It is now mandatory(强制)for drivers or passengers to wear seatbelts while in a car in all states. In addition, it is also mandatory for kids of be in some kind of specialized car seat. Given the strict requirements in other vehicles, why don’t buses have seatbelts?
The main answer, at least for school buses, is that seatbelts do not make school buses safer. Overall, traveling
on school buses is the safest way to travel---40 times safer than riding in a car—with only a handful of deaths occurring to passengers on school buses every year. The seats on the school bus are placed very close to each other and have high backs that are thickly padded. As a result, in an accident the students would be propelled forward a very short distance into a padded seatback that in a way is like an airbag. In addition, the fact that people sit high off the ground on school buses also makes it safer to travel on them.
While school buses feature high backed seats and elevated seating locations, the same cannot be said of city buses. However, from a practical angle, there’s little need to require seatbelts on city buses. Although the design of the modern low—floor city bus is less safe than the design of school buses, the fact that city buses rarely travel at speeds greater than 35 miles per hour means that any collision is likely to be small, Also, given that most trips on city buses are short and that many trips have standing passengers, the presence of seatbelts will make even less of a difference.
Another answer why buses do not have seatbelts is cost. It is estimated that adding seatbelts to buses would add between $8,000 and $15,000 to the cost of each bus. In addition, seatbelts would take up room currently used as seats, meaning that each bus would have fewer seating places. The additional room in the bus taken up by seatbelts would mean that bus fleets would have to increase by as much as 15% just to carry the same number of people. Such an increase would be especially difficult in cities that experience overcrowding on their vehicles.
Regardless of whether their passengers have seatbelts, all buses provide seatbelts for drivers and most bus companies make their drivers wear seatbelts in order not to be influenced by a collision. Why don’t buses have seatbelts? Everyone is (71)______to wear their seatbelts in a car while no seatbelts are provided for Topic passengers on buses. School buses: ●Seatbelts make no(73)______in improving the safety of the school bus. ●Traveling on school buses is safe thanks to their seats with high padded backs, which can(74)______the students from danger because they are propelled forward into them in a (72)_______ collision. ●Sitting high off the ground on school buses also(75)______to the safety City buses: ●Their low traveling speed reduces the risk of a collision ●City buses tend to travel a short(76)______ ●Many passengers stand while on a city bus, making seatbelts(77)_______ ●Fixing seatbelts on buses can(78)_____ in an increase in cost. ●Seatbelts can also limit the number of seating places by(79)_____ room on a bus. ●As a result, an increasing number of bus fleets are required to carry the same number of people.

Cai Yujing’s graduation speech has won widespread applause, in which she shared some of her experiences while studying abroad and emphasized the significance of accepting and embracing diversity.(28 words) Personally, it is of critical importance to accept and embrace diversity. To begin with, undeniably, there exist various cultures, races and lifestyles worldwide. Acceptance of differences can help construct a harmonious atmosphere. Moreover, exposed to a new environment, we should adapt ourselves and fit in. Thus, shared understanding can be achieved and mutual learning can be promoted, which can enhance our personal growth. Take myself as an example. On the first day of my high school, I felt nervous, surrounded by classmates with different academic and family backgrounds. But once I opened my mind, I overcame uneasiness and nervousness.
