The Meredith family lived in a small community. As the economy was in decline, some people in the town had lost their jobs. Many of their families were struggling to make ends meet. People were trying to help each other meet the challenges.
Mrs. Meredith was a most kind and thoughtful woman. She spent a great deal of time visiting the poor. She knew they had problems, and they needed all kinds of help. When she had time, she would bring food and medicine to them.
One morning she told her children about a family she had visited the day before. There was a man sick in bed, his wife, who took care of him and could not go out to work, and their little boy. The little boy—his name was Bernard—had interested her very much.
"I wish you could see him," she said to her own children, John, Harry, and Clara. "He is such a help to his mother. He wants very much to earn some money, but I don't see what he can do. "
After their mother left the room, the children sat thinking about Bernard. "I wish we could help him to earn money," said Clara. "His family is suffering so much. "
"So do I," said Harry. "We really should do something to assist them. "
For some moments, John said nothing, but, suddenly, he sprang to his feet and cried, "I have a great idea! I have a solution that we can all help accomplish (完成). "
The other children also jumped up all attention. When John had an idea, it was sure to be a good one. "I'll tell you what we can do," said John. "You know that big box of corn Uncle John sent us? Well, we can make popcorn (爆米花), and put it into paper bags, and Bernard can take it around to the houses and sell it. "
注意:(1)续写词数应为150左右;(2)续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好。

While there are numerous tools to help you determine your strengths,try starting with these questions. Be as honest,clear,and objective as possible.
What are your top three qualities or strengths? . To make it easy,send an email to 20 of your closest friends and family members. Tell them you need their help in identifying your three top qualities or strengths. You'll quickly start receiving responses. Start a list from the answers you receive. . Take the three most common answers and use them as your guide.
What do you do every day? Most people tend to spend time on the things they like to do rather than the things they don't like. . If you find yourself easily making time to read to your kids but avoid making dinner,this behavior could be telling you something. People move toward things they're naturally good at doing.
?What people think you do and what they say about you are two different things. For example,they may think you're cleaning all day long but still think you're a terrible housekeeper. So you need to question people about it and tell them it's okay to tell the truth because this is about your personal development.
What is one mistake you keep repeating? Albert Einstein is known to have described insanity (精神错乱) as doing the same thing over and over but expecting different results. Are you caught in the insanity trap? For me,it was making bread. For years I tried to get my dough (面团) to rise into a nice cottony loaf. . I had advice from friends,watched videos online and tried different recipes all to no avail. I've accepted that I can't make bread and it's okay.
A. Every time I created a hard rock
B. The first step is to ask for advice
C. What do you like to talk about
D. What do other people say about you
E. You'll find a lot of qualities are repeated
F. The truth is we don't have to be good at everything
G. It's often the struggle between the two that causes problems,not the activities

Do you know the websites that let you name a star after your beloved one,your kid or your dog for a small fee?Yeah,those are all fake— you could pay me to "name" a star for ﹩50,and I'll take your money and show the name online. I'll even send you a fancy certificate!It seems that you've named a star,but it just doesn't count.
Actually,the only organization that owns official naming rights is the International Astronomical Union,or the IAU. It was founded in 1919 and based in Paris,France. It is where astronomers and other professionals have reached the agreements and is the official record-keeping body for all discoveries in space.
Recently they do open up an opportunity for the public to name a dozen of planets outside the solar system. These planets will be among the first to be studied with the James Webb Space Telescope. However,they currently only have boring and complicated documents that were used to find them. That's why the IAU is looking for something more interesting.
But before you start naming the planets,you should know the rules. First,nothing is rude or annoying. Second,the name should be less than 16 characters long and pronounceable in at least one language with no commercial or business names and nothing is named after a living individual or a pet.
The competition,named "Stars Worlds",is open next Thursday,January 20th. It's the third such contest the IAU has held,and the purpose is to get the public more interested in science as well as the organization. The competition also helps to break centuries of European dominance when it comes to naming things in the night sky. So people around the world can share the joy of discovery and make their mark in history.
(1)、How does the author introduce the topic of the passage?A、By listing figures. B、By taking an example. C、By offering a solution. D、By showing differences.(2)、What can we know about the IAU from the passage?A、It was founded by France. B、It studies the space telescope. C、It organizes trips to the space. D、It has the right to name the stars.(3)、What is the last paragraph mainly about?A、Why the competition is held. B、How the competition develops. C、What to expect in the competition. D、How to take part in the competition.(4)、Where is this passage most likely taken from?A、A novel. B、A textbook. C、A diary. D、A magazine. -

Around seven out of every ten Americans who work in offices do their work in an open environment,defined as at desks without meaningful partitions (隔板),according to an International Facility Management Association survey. That is,if they even have a desk——workers may be assigned only a few feet of a communal(共用的) table. The open-plan office space trend,popularized by creative agencies and technology start-ups,went mainstream because of the belief that open-space environments support innovation. More nearness between employees,the thinking went,would create more interaction and teamwork,promote social interaction and urge productivity.
But in fact,purely open-plan offices have been shown to have the opposite effects,creating so much distraction(分心) that employees stayed away from each other. A study funded by Harvard Business Sehaol,the results of which were published last year,tracked what happened when a British company moved its employees from traditional office space,with offices with walls,to an open office. Face-to-face interaction became less——employees spent 72 percent less time interacting with their colleagues. Instead of talking more with each other,the employees put on headphones and began communicating by text and email. As digital communication channels surged , productivity declined.
Neuroscience also holds some clues as to why the tight quarters in communal work spaces——where workers are only given about half the space they were given a decade ago——are so hard to work in. "The human voice sets off the most powerful emotional response in our auditory(听觉的)experience. Voice above 55 decibels(分贝)—— roughly the sound of a loud phone call——causes measurable stress," according to a Wall Street Journal article, "The Neuroscience-Optimized Office". "Even more troublesome are overheard 'halfversations',in which the listener only knows about one side of a dialogue;our brains automatically imagine the other," wrote authors John Medina and Ryan Mullenix.
But the solution,say experts including Newport,isn't to go back to putting everyone into offices with walls.
(1)、What can we learn about the open office trend according to paragraph 1?A、It allows 10 people at most to work together. B、It is believed to stimulate workers' creativity. C、It is only popular with new technology companies. D、It is aimed at promoting workers' social interaction.(2)、What does the underlined word" surged"in paragraph 2 probably mean?A、Suspended timely. B、Became useless. C、Cost less. D、Increased quickly.(3)、What makes an open office hard to work in?A、Hearing endless noisy phone calls. B、Showing real emotions publicly. C、Facing communication barriers at work. D、Hearing part of a dialogue between colleagues.(4)、What will probably be discussed in the following paragraph?A、What are benefits of the open offices with walls. B、Why the open office makes workers distracted. C、How to deal with the disadvantages of the open office. D、How to draw workers' attention to their colleagues nearby. -

It had always been assumed that the rarity of lightning in ocean storms was due to cleaner air over the vast seas,but keen observations have shown that even highly polluted air is associated with reduced lightning at sea when sea spray aerosols(气溶胶) are abundant. In their paper published in the journal Nature Communications,an international team of researchers describes their multi-year study of atmospheric conditions over the oceans bordering Africa and what it showed about salt in sea spray aerosols and its impact on lightning.
The researchers obtained atmospheric data on Africa and the oceans around it for the period 2013 to 2017. The data included numbers of lightning flashes,rainfall,temperatures and cloud representations. They looked for differences in atmospheric conditions in storms that occurred over land versus those that occurred over the sea and found one main difference:the amount of salt in the air.
Lightning is produced when upwardly moving air in clouds forms ice crystals(冰晶)—aerosol particles then begin to bump into one another,creating an electrical charge. Lightning happens when the electrical field in one part of the cloud becomes positively charged ( usually at the top of the cloud) and another negatively charged (usually at the bottom of the cloud). And clouds form,of course,when vapor evaporates(蒸发) from the surface of the Earth and the water drops bond with aerosols.
The researchers found that things are slightly different over the ocean. When water evaporates from the sea,it bears a load of salt. When the salt water bonds with aerosols to form water droplets,they tend to be bigger and heavier than those that form over land due to the salt—and that results in more of the water in the clouds falling as rain before it can rise up and form ice crystals. The result is far fewer lightning discharges.
The researchers suggest their findings could be useful in improving the accuracy of both climate models and meteorological reports. It could also possibly lead some to attempt to seed storm clouds with salt to reduce their severity.
(1)、What is the common belief of lightning over oceans?A、Lightning pollutes the remote sea. B、Polluted air leads to less lightning at sea. C、Cleaner air results in less lightning at sea. D、Cleaner air contributes to more lightning at sea.(2)、How does the author mainly develop paragraph 3?A、By presenting facts. B、By listing similarities. C、By giving examples. D、By making comparisons.(3)、How do water droplets on land differ from those at sea?A、They drop much faster. B、They contain more water. C、They are bigger and heavier. D、They are smaller and lighter.(4)、What can be the best title for the text?A、Salt in Sea Spray Worsens Storms over the Sea. B、Salt in Sea Spray Keeps Lightning Strikes Away. C、Lightning Strikes Are More Common over Oceans. D、Sea Spray Is Found Evaporating Faster over Oceans. -

A Midsummer Night's Dream may be one of Shakespeare's most performed play—but its latest version from the Royal Shakespeare Company will be unlike any seen before. Titled Dream,the 50-minute online production combines live performance with motion-capture (动作捕捉) technology,3 D graphics,and interactive gaming techniques that let audiences remotely guide the leading character Puck through a virtual forest.
As live theater put some seriously high-tech fairy (小精灵) factors into practice,Dream promises to bring the rarest version of the play to our screens. In 2016,the theater's production of The Tempest used live motion-capture technology to create a 3 D digital image that was projected above the stage. The difference this time is that everything in the play—the performers and their surroundings—will be shown virtually.
Seven actors will perform in a specially-built studio in Portsmouth,southern England,wearing motion-capture suits. They will be surrounded by a 360-degree camera set,made up of 47 cameras with every movement almost immediately presented digitally,which is presented to viewers online. With its much-reduced characters,Dream is not a complete production of A Midsummer Night's Dream;rather,it is a story inspired by it,focusing on Puck and the fairies.
Up to 2,000 audience members for each performance can become part of the show and will be invited to guide Puck through the forest. Onscreen,the chosen audience will appear as a cloud of tiny fireflies (萤火虫). By using their mouse or finger on the screen of a smart device,they will be able to move their firefly across the screen,and Puck will be at their beck and call to go through the virtual space. For viewers watching at home,the virtual fairies moving through a digital forest will look more like a video game than the average Royal Shakespeare Company show. But the performances are delivered live and in real time. Every night's performance will be unique.
"Without the fireflies—the audiences—Puck wouldn't be going anywhere," said E. M. Williams who plays the role. "The audiences are very much the fuel and the energy of the show. "
(1)、What makes Dream different from The Tempest?A、The number of actors and actresses. B、The surroundings around the performers. C、The 3 D digital image it chooses to show. D、The way it presents everything in the play.(2)、Which aspect of the play does Paragraph 3 focus on?A、Its leading characters. B、The design of its content. C、Its production process. D、The inspiration for the play.(3)、What does the underlined part "be at their beck and call" in the last but one paragraph mean?A、Be willing to guide them. B、Be likely to receive a call. C、Be difficult to control. D、Be ready to follow their order.(4)、What do E. M. Williams' words in the last paragraph show?A、The cost of the show. B、The pleasure of the audiences. C、The importance of the audiences. D、The task of the leading character. -

I will share the kind act that I met with all of you.We had dozens of restaurant options within a short distance,so we often took advantage of this luxury.On one occasion,I ran out to get some food.I saw the clouds in the distance and decided I could make it there and come back in time,but I was wrong.I was about to leave the restaurant when the rain just poured.The street was flooded within minutes.
But I had my little girl and husband waiting for me back at home,and they were hungry,so I knew I had to make a run for it.The owner of the restaurant tried to encourage me to wait inside,but I insisted that I should go.At this point,he grabbed his umbrella and said,"Okay,let's go." Of course I tried to convince him that it wasn't necessary for him to walk me home,but I knew I wouldn't prevent him from doing so.So off we went.We quickly realized that the umbrella wouldn't help much in keeping us dry.He walked me all the way to my apartment building,where he said goodbye and ran back to the restaurant.
Again I encountered this act of kindness when I was making my way to the bus.As I waited at the crosswalk(人行道),it began to rain lightly.Nothing was too bad,but a young guy nearby felt like it was heavy enough to make him step next to me and hold his umbrella above both of us.After a while,the lights turned green.I thanked him and walked across the street.
Getting around the city when you are six months pregnant(怀孕的) and have a two-year-old kid can be challenging sometimes.One spring afternoon,I realized I needed something from the store to finish preparing for dinner.The weather seemed a bit questionable but the store was around the corner so I decided to risk it.

Bogre Udell, who speaks four languages, met Frederico Andrade, who speaks five, at the Parsons New School in New York City.In 2014, they started a project to make the first public records of every language in the world.They've already recorded more than 350 languages, and plan to hit 1,000 in the coming years.
"When humans lose a language, we also lose greater diversity (多样化) in art and traditions,"said Bogre Udell.Between 1950 and 2010, 230 languages disappeared.Today, a third of the world's languages have fewer than 1,000 speakers left.Every two weeks a language dies with its last speaker, and 50 to 90 percent of them are said to disappear by the next century.
Wikitongues has asked for volunteers in 40 countries to film native speakers talking in the past, present,and future tenses of their mother languages.Native speakers are asked to recall childhood, share their stories, and discuss their hopes and goals.One volunteer in the South Pacific islands of Vanuatu recorded a language that had never been studied by language experts before.Another volunteer found a speaker of Ainu, a language in Japan that has no relation to any other known language, and he also recorded it.However, priceless recording opportunities disappear regularly.Not long ago, one of the last two speakers of a Saami language in the Russian steppes died right before his recording session with Wikitongues.
A lack of protection and globalization are responsible for diminishing language diversity.For much of the 20th century, governments across the world forced some local people to use official languages.More than 100 languages in Australia have disappeared since European settlers arrived.However, most languages die today because of other factors; climate change and urbanization contribute (是……的原因之一) greatly to the disappearance of languages.
(1)、What does the author point out in Paragraph 2?A、Language loss is becoming very serious. B、Few people are worried about language loss. C、Language loss makes it difficult for people to communicate. D、Some countries fail to slow down the process of language loss.(2)、How do volunteers help protect languages?A、By writing down native speakers' stories. B、By learning languages from native speakers. C、By improving the living conditions of native speakers. D、By videoing native speakers talking in their languages.(3)、What does the underlined word "diminishing" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A、Creating. B、Valuing. C、Decreasing. D、Encouraging.(4)、What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A、Where language loss spreads. B、What causes language loss. C、How to deal with language loss. D、What language loss brings to people. -

Earthquake rescue robots have experienced their final tests in Beijing.Their designers say with these robots,rescuers will be able to have more time to save more lives during an earthquake.
This robot,looking like a helicopter,is called the detector bot.It's about 4 meters long,and it took about 4 years to develop the model.Its main functions are to collect information from the air,and send goods of up to 30 kilos to people trapped by an earthquake.
This robot has a high-definition 360-degree panoramic(全景的) camera.It can work day and night and will also be able to send the latest pictures from the quake area.
Dr.Qi Juntong,from the Chinese Academy of Science,said,"The most important feature of this robot is that it doesn't need a distant control.We just set the destination(目的地) information on it,and then it takes off,and lands by itself.It flies as high as 3,000 meters,and as fast as 100 kilometers per hour."
This robot has a different function—it can change as the environment changes.Its main job is to search for any signs of life in places where human rescuers are unable to go.
As well as a detector(探测器) that finds victims and detects poisonous gas,a camera is placed in the 40-centimeter-long robot,which can work in the dark.
Another use for the rescuers is the supply bot.With its 10-meter-long pipe,people who are trapped in the ruins,will be able to get supplies including oxygen and liquids.
Experts have said that the robots will enter production,and serve as part of the national earthquake rescue team as soon as next year.
(1)、According to the passage,this robot ____.A、is carried by the helicopter B、weighs about 30 kilos C、hasn't been put into production so far D、is a machine with a length of 10 meters(2)、Dr.Qi Juntong thinks this robot is different from the others mainly because ____.A、it has more functions B、it has a unique shape C、it has more advanced cameras D、it can work by itself once given the information(3)、The underlined word"which" in Paragraph 6 refers to "____".A、a detector B、a camera C、a rescuer D、a supply(4)、The text is mainly about ____.A、an introduction to the robot B、what the robot looks like C、how the robot is made D、information about earthquakes -

We have met, but just not in person.I work in the bank and I usually do my work over the phone and computer.This lady is a borrower of my bank,one of the people I serve.We have had several conversations about her borrowings.She is neither a woman that is of my mother's age, nor a grand-motherly type of client (客户), because men or women of that age are always very loving and they remind me what I should do.This woman is of my age.
We have never met in person.She lives in New Jersey and I live in California.Her borrowings turned out great, and I didn't worry even a little bit.To be honest, I think I just worked normally to finish my service.But every couple of months, she would email me a little note, telling me how I made a difference to her life, and how thankful she was for what I had done.I never expected that.
I have a busy and stressful job.Every day, I meet many people and I offer the same service to them.I also keep a working relationship with many.No one has done that for me.I don't think I have done something different or helped her much.She just used her time and the most shining part in her heart to send me emails.I saw the beauty inside her.
Everyone can be tired and lonely right now.The same is true of the woman.Take a moment in your day to do one little nice thing for somebody,even if it's for someone you do not know.You can make a little difference to their life and also to yours.It feels good to say I feel a little love today and that I find myself showing it to somebody else.
