I owe (欠) my father a huge thank -you! Sure, ...

I owe my father a huge thank you! Sure, I need to thank him for all those years of paying my bills, fixing my bikes, and providing a shoulder to cry on. But this year I realized that his contributions to my childhood were much more than that.

I grew up as Daddy’s Little Girl. If I had a problem that needed fixing or a question that needed answering, he was the one I ran to. He helped me get through everything from math homework as a high school student to career choices as a young adult. He always expected that I do my best in whatever I did, and he believed I could succeed in anything I put my mind to. As a result, I learned to hold myself to those same standards. He always showed me unconditional love, which helped me learn to love myself. It was something I’d taken for granted until I realized from talking with my friends that they had no similar view of their self worth. Having fathers that didn’t believe in them left them to grow up not believing in themselves.

As I was growing up, my father also modeled how a woman should be lavished. He treated my mom with love and respect. As a result, I grew to expect nothing less than that from the men I dated and from the man I would eventually marry. Dad was a living picture of godliness（虔诚）, honesty and responsibility. It was only recently that I realized what a deep effect fathers have on their daughters’ lives. That is why I want to thank my dad for the godly example of love that he has been to me throughout my life.

1.From the second paragraph, the author thinks it is the most valuable that ________.

A. her father was very strict with her.

B. her father helped her a lot in every way.

C. nothing was difficult if her father was on her side.

D. Father’s trust deeply influenced her self-confidence.

2.What does the underlined word “lavished” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. Loved　　 B. Respected

C. Treated　　 D. Spoiled

3.Who would the author turn to when in trouble?

A. Her friends.　　 B. Her mother

C. Her husband　　 D. Her father

4.The feeling the author wants to express to her father in this text is ________.

A. grateful　　 B. sad

C. proud　　 D. pitiful

Safety is a huge concern whenever I run with my earphones in. But I need music to run. Otherwise all I hear is the sound of my own breathing. So I’ve found a compromise: I run with only one earphone in. The music sounds off. It’s an imperfect solution.

An updated pair of headphones, called AfterShokz, aim to do better. AfterShokz bills itself as using bone conducting technology to conduct music from the front of the ear, delivering sound through your cheekbone and inner ear. This keeps your eardrum (鼓膜) free to hear everything else.

“Earbuds (耳塞式耳机) are typically designed to block out all sound, which is fine when you’re inside. But when you’re outside, you need all your senses. It would be like sending you out cycling with a blindfold on,” says Rod Annet, managing director of AfterShokz.

Here’s where AfterShokz comes in. The headphones hook over the back of your head with the main “bud” resting high up against your cheek. This keeps your ear free to delight in other sounds.

So do they work? In a word, yes. During a 45-minute jog, they didn’t bounce or shift. I heard far more of my environment than I normally do: a nearby bike there; a runner passing me again to my left; and so forth.

What about the downsides? If you’re a huge fan of high-quality sound, you might find the headphones a bit tinny. One friend expressed concerns about missing the ability to get lost in the music as you might be distracted by other noises, although I personally didn’t find that an issue.

Yet those are all minor details. For me, probably the biggest problem is the price. Ranging between £ 49.96 to £ 83.29, AfterShokz headphones aren’t exactly cheap.

With all that considered, would I recommend them? Yes. AfterShokz headphones are quite useful. While out jogging, they were light, painless, and easy to use. They made me feel safer.

1.What is special about AfterShokz headphones?

A. They are a good choice for inside use.

B. They allow users to hear other sounds.

C. They can make music sound more beautiful.

D. They can deliver sound through your eardrum.

2.What does the author’s friend think of AfterShokz headphones?

A. They prevent users getting lost.

B. They deliver high—quality sound.

C. They often move while users are running.

D. They fail to allow users to enjoy the music.

3.The author thinks AfterShokz headphones 　　　　 .

A. are too expensive　　 B. seem quite useless

C. make users feel pain　　 D. are too complex to use

4.What is the main purpose of the text?

A. To express worries.　　 B. To introduce a product.

C. To share a personal story.　　 D. To complain about a product.

I went into Harrods in London (a huge department store I am sure you have heard of) to buy some Minton china plates for a wedding anniversary which was to be a group gift from friends to other friends in Geneva.

Having only 30 minutes between meeting. I whizzed there in a taxi from the office and battled through the milling people on the 2nd day of the sales on the ground floor up to the 5th to the china department. There was a man standing there who was obviously a sales person who I rushed up to and asked if he had this particular china in stock and if it would take long to wrap, etc. He was amazing. He got the plates in seconds, wrapped them up and asked me if I wanted a store card, to which I replied no, because I lived in Switzerland, to which he replied asking if, as I lived abroad, would like a tax rebate form(退税表). After that he showed me what to do, produced a map of the store and told me where I should go for the formalities(程序). That was fabulous! I thanked him and said what wonderful service he had given me. I even asked if he gave this to everyone, to which he answered: “I’m just doing what is required at Harrods”. With that, a tall man in a gray suit approached me and offered his hand to shake mine saying, “Can I introduce myself? I am the Chief Executive of Harrods and what an interesting conversation I have just heard…” He had been wandering through the store (as you should do as a hands-on CEO) and had overheard me thanking this salesman, whose face, I can hardly describe, was frozen in a mixture of delight awe and astonishment!

It’s often said that your parents’ job is to make sure that one day you no longer need them. And that’s certainly the case by the time you have kids of your own. However, this is precisely the time when your parents start to need you. How do you talk to your aging parents about their health? 1., but these tips make it easier.

Before a conversation, you had better establish yourself as a friend, not an enemy. Always start with an “I” statement, not a “you should” statement. 2..

Scientists recommend beginning a conversation about something you’re doing—taking up yoga to stay slim, for instance. 3.. And you can even have her commit to doing it with you. When you’re a friend day-to-day, your parents will trust you and be able to depend on you during a health crisis.

4.. Start by equipping them with a smartphone that’s designed for seniors. Staying in close phone contact will keep you informed of any arising health issues. It will help you pick up on faults in their memory, too.

Your parents are your parents until they’re gone. Do not treat them like children. Even if you find that there’s an emergency going on, you can make suggestions, but they have the right to make decisions, especially if there’s no cognitive (认知的) disorder. 5., helping your parents in their later years is the least you can do. With the proper measures and technology, it can get easier and feel even more rewarding.

A.Just as they have been there for you

B.It may not be a simple conversation to have

C.It can mean changes in your parents’ schedule

D.Scientists also suggests phoning your parents regularly

E.That can lead to asking your mom what she’s doing to keep fit

F.Talk about affairs about yourself first, then extend them to your parents

G.Scientists recommend opening the door to dialogue instead of calling them

Prison Break is a huge hit thanks to its handsome star, Wentworth Miller. His character, Michael Scofield, is the engine that drives the show.

Having committed a crime to get into prison and break out with his innocent brother, Michael Scofield is one of the most interesting personalities on TV today. But what about the man behind the character?

Miller,35, is a hard guy to figure out. He does not come from a normal background and has never lived his life in a typical way.

Miller didn’t take direct path to fame and fortune. He graduated from Princeton University in 1995, not with a degree in theatre of film, but in English. He didn’t even act when he was in college. His only performance experience was in his university’s singing group. Yet , at graduation Miller still decided to make the move to Hollywood.

Miller has always been different. Although he is American, he was in Britain when his father was studying there. His family background is also a special mix of cultures. “My father is black and my mother is white. That means I have always been caught in the middle. I could be either one, which can make you feel out of place,” Miller says.

Following his unusual path, Miller did not start trying out for films and TV shows when he first went to Hollywood. Instead, he worked as a lowly production assistant. Not what you would expect from a Princeton graduate. However, it all paid off for Miller in the end.

In 2002, Miller played a role in the drama Dinotopia（《恐龙帝国》）. He starred as a thoughtful and shy man. Producers remembered his performance when they were casting Prison Break two years later. With a golden globe nomination（提名）and another season of Prison Break on his resume, Miller seems ready to take over all of Hollywood.

A．Michael Scofield in Prison Break .

B．Hollywood’s recent big hit—Prison Break.

A．it’s difficult to tell him from others

3．Which of the following statements is put in the right order?

a．Miller did not act in any of the films or TV shows in Hollywood.

b．Miller worked as a lowly production assistant.

c．Miller played a role in the drama Dinotopia.

d．Miller joined in his university’s singing group.

A．d－a－b－c     B．a－b－c－d     C．b－a－c－d   D．d－c－b－a

4．Which is the closest in meaning to the underlined sentence “it all paid off for Miller in the end”?

A．Miller put a lot of extra work for his final success.

B．Miller gained fame and fortune at last with his first film.

C．Miller finally succeeded even if he has been in low position.

D．Miller managed to pay off his debts with his small income in the end.

5．Which of the following statements is TRUE about Miller?

A．He is chosen to play the Michael Scofield due to his interesting personality.

B．His performance in Dinotopia makes some contributions to his success.

C．He has the same experience with the character Michael Scofield.
