    The impact of technology on language is a topic that often causes concern, with many assuming that it is simply ruining it.However, language experts resist such pessimism, noting that there is little evidence to support the view that speech is getting worse.Gretchen McCulloch, in her book Because Internet, focuses on what can be learned about language from the internet rather than talking about its supposed negative effects.

    McCulloch compares studying language online to growing bacteria(细菌)in a Petri dish, where trends emerge and disappear quickly, allowing language experts to observe changes that would otherwise take a considerable amount of time.The influence of strong ties like friends or family vs weaker ties on language change is analyzed, with computer simulations(模拟)revealing that having both strong and weaker ties helps spread updates in a community.

    The role of social media platforms in language change is also discussed.Twitter, with its mix of strong and weak ties, is shown to drive more language change than Facebook, which is controlled by stronger ties.Emoji is highlighted as a universal digital expression of gestures, not a language.Additionally, there is evidence that the use of internet "innovations" such as "omg" dates back to pre-computer eras.

    McCulloch's book focuses on the birth of a new medium rather than a new language.The rise of mass writing on the internet, characterized by frequent, error-filled, and short-lived communication, challenges traditional ideas about writing's importance.McCulloch suggests future historians should see this as a return to more casual(随意的)language, paying more attention to the value of tools that improve social interaction online.The book argues against the idea that these changes might lead to the end of "real" writing, advocating for an appreciation of anything that enhances human connect ion and the enjoyment of each other's company.

    1. (1) How might McCulloch sound in her book Because Internet?
    2. (2) What does paragraph 3 focus on?
    3. (3) Which of the following would McCulloch probably agree with?
    4. (4) What would be the best title for the text?

    Bottled water has long been marketed as a safe drink—if it doesn't come straight from a mountain spring, it's at least clean and free of chemicals.But a new study demonstrates that bottled water may not be so safe when it comes to microscopic plastic pollutants capable of passing into the bloodstream.

    For years scientists have raised the alarm over microplastics, which form when plastics break down into increasingly smaller particles(微粒), ranging from five millimeters down to one micrometer.Previous studies have found that a liter of bottled water can contain tens of thousands of identifiable plastic particles.But they stopped at the one micrometer level due to technological restrictions.

    The study used a new technology to find even smaller particles, and detected an average 240,000 plastic particles per liter of bottled water.About 90% of the particles were considered nanoplastics, smaller than one micrometer. Unlike microplastics, they are capable of passing through some organs like lungs into the bloodstream.From there they can stay in the heart muscle and other organs, pass into the brain, and even into the bodies of unborn babies.

    So far, little research shows what nanoplastics exactly do once they enter the bloodstream.But there is much evidence that chemicals used in plastic production are bad for human health.Even if nanoplastics themselves are not deleterious, they can serve as carriers for the dangerous chemicals, increasing the risk of cancer and impacting key organs such as the heart.

    "There is a huge world of nanoplastics to be studied," said the researchers.Even if nanoplastics make up 90% of the number of plastic particles found in bottled water, they make up far less in mass, they said.However, this fact provides little comfort: It's the numbers rather than mass that matter, and the smaller things are, the more readily they can get inside us.

    1. (1) What does the technological barrier in the previous studies concern?
    2. (2) What does the text imply about microplastics?
    3. (3) What does the underlined word "deleterious" in paragraph 4 probably mean?
    4. (4) Why do nanoplastics need further research?

    I'm a physical therapist(治疗师)for severely disabled children in the South Bronx. I had one student named Tamisha who was stuck in a wheelchair. She could 1 move her eyes. She couldn't speak, but I could basically 2 her mind.

    Tamisha was very intelligent, and very humorous. If someone terribly dressed got on the elevator, she'd 3 her eyes and giggle. I'd have to 4 I didn't know what she was laughing in order to avoid embarrassing that person. We grew so close over the years. On Halloween I 5 her up as a butterfly, because that's how I saw her. She was 6 in this body, but she was a soul with so much depth and so much 7 .

    When Tamisha graduated, my husband and I went to Home Depot and got paint, and butterflies, and rainbow decals(印花胶纸). And we completely 8 her bedroom. We made her sleep in the living room 9 she wouldn't know it. But at the end of the weekend, when Tamisha's father carried her in, she started going wild. Her face 10 . She's making all kinds of sounds. Her father is holding her, and he's 11 . The makeover was a real 12 .

    We've done about 20 of them now. Our process always begins with an 13 process. We ask the person: what makes you happy? What colors do you love? What are your favorite things? We let them design their 14 room. Then we become the 15 who bring that dream to life.

    The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. Minor Snow (小雪) refers to the time when it starts to snow, mostly in China's northern areas, and the temperature continues to drop.

    Here are four things you should know about Minor Snow.

    Wearing hats and scarves

    In China, starting in Minor Snow, the wind blows from the northeast a lot. Because it's still not bitterly cold, many people do not wear hats or scarves yet. In fact, according to an old Chinese saying, "The head is the place where all passages of the body gather". It's sensible to keep one's head warm.

    Drinking soup

    During Minor Snow, indoor heating begins to work, which means the air indoors is dry and most people might find their nose and mouth feels a bit dry. According to practices in traditional Chinese medicine, this accumulation of "inner heat" in one's body can cause problems, including oral ulcers and breakouts (口腔溃疡和破损). The solution is to drink more hot soup, such as cabbage and bean curd soup, spinach and bean curd soup, and mutton and radish soup.

    Making preserved pork

    After Minor Snow, the temperature declines sharply and the air becomes dry. It is the best time to start making preserved pork, which by the Chinese Spring Festival would be ready to enjoy. In the past, when storage conditions were poor, people developed many ways to store food and preserved pork is one such example. So even in the bitter winter, the whole family could enjoy meat. Some even say preserved pork tastes more delicious than fresh meat.

    Avoiding spicy food

    On cold days, people may have a strong desire for some hot and spicy food to keep warm. Experts say it's wise not to eat overly spicy food, since that will increase your inner heat.

    1. (1) Which of the following can best describe Minor Snow?
    2. (2) Why do people drink soup during Minor Snow?
    3. (3)  How to keep warm during Minor Snow?

    Wild animals seem to have escaped the Indian Ocean tsunami, adding weight to the idea that they have a "sixth sense" for disasters, experts said on Thursday.

    Sri Lanka wildlife officials have said the waves that killed over 24,000 people along the Indian Ocean island's coast seemingly missed wild beasts, with no dead animals found.

    "No elephants are dead, not even a dead hare or rabbit. I think animals can sense disaster. They have a ‘sixth sense'. They know when things are happening," H.D. Ratnayake, director of Sri Lanka's Wildlife Department, said on Wednesday.

    The waves washed floodwaters up to 3 km (2 miles) inland at Yala National Park in the southeast, Sri Lanka's biggest wildlife reserve and home to hundreds of wild elephants. "There has been a lot of evidence (证据) about dogs barking or birds migrating before volcanic eruptions or earthquakes. But it has not been proved." said Matthew van Lierop, an animal behaviour specialist at Johannesburg Zoo. "There have been no specific studies because you can't really test it in a lab or field setting," he said. Other authorities agreed with this conclusion.

    "Wildlife seems to be able to pick up certain signs, especially birds. There are many reports of birds detecting coming disasters," said Clive Walker, who has written several books on African wildlife.

    Animals certainly rely on the known senses such as smell or hearing to avoid danger such as predators (掠食动物). The idea of an animal "sixth sense" is a lasting one that the evidence on Sri Lanka's damaged coast is likely to add to.

    1. (1) What happened after the Indian Ocean tsunami?
    2. (2) What does H.D. Ratnayake do?
    3. (3) Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "detecting" in paragraph 5?
    4. (4) What is the text mainly about?

    Imagine a dog you don't need to train. Instead, you can program it to do whatever you want. Now, you don't need to imagine it. Meet Spot, a dog-like robot from US company Boston Dynamics.

    In March, the Archaeological Park of Pompeii (庞贝考古公园) in Italy gave Spot a new job. Pompeii is a famous "time capsule (胶囊)" from the ancient world. Thousands of years ago, a nearby volcano covered the city in ash. Many people died, but the ash kept buildings safe until someone found it in 1748.

    So, what is Spot doing in Pompeii? It walks around the site with a 3D scanner (扫描仪). There are many narrow, underground tunnels in Pompeii. Thieves used the tunnels to steal things. The tunnels bring safety problems to the ancient buildings. Robot dogs are small enough to go through these tunnels and find any changes to the buildings.

    According to Gabriel Zuchtriegel, new director of the site, this is the first time anyone has used a robot to help protect an archaeological site. "It's a breakthrough and it would allow us to protect the ruins with greater speed and in total safety," said Zuchtriegel.

    Spot will also work with a 3D-scanning drone (无人机). The two tools will check the site regularly. They will look for any damage that may need a repair. As art magazine ART news said, Pompeii is turning into a "Smart Archaeological Park".

    1. (1)  What can we learn about the Archaeological Park of Pompeii from Paragraph 2?
    2. (2) What does the park use Spot to do?
    3. (3) What does Zuchtriegel think of Spot?
    4. (4) What can we learn from the story?

     It was nearly dinner time when my 5-year-old daughter rushed into the house. Tears rolled down as she 1  her two hurt arms. I tried to persuade her to 2 , as that was the fourth time she had crashed that day. I told her that children of her3  usually rode with training wheels (辅助轮). But she 4  my advice and as soon as the bandages (绷带) were stuck on her 5 , she headed back out the door.

    Donald Watson was a man who thought very much about the food he ate. He was born in Yorkshire, England, in September 1910. And he died in November 2005, at the age of 95. That is a very great age. Watson explained that it was because he never ate any food from animals.

    When he was a boy, Watson stayed on a farm. He loved to see the animals. He said that they gave so much to people. And all the animals were so friendly. Then, one day, he saw a man killing a pig. He was very sad. From then on, Watson decided that he would never again eat meat. Twenty years later he decided that he wouldn't eat anything from animals, such as milk, cheese or eggs. He became a vegan.

    Watson formed a group called "The Vegan Society". In its newspaper, The Vegan Society thought it was terrible and wrong to eat food from animals. At first, there were not many people who agreed with him. They thought it was crazy to do it. Most people thought it was too difficult and unhealthy. However, over time, more and more people began to agree with Watson and The Vegan Society.

    People become vegans for many reasons. Watson and his friend stopped eating because they loved animals. They believed that it was wrong to hurt another living thing.

    Now, people also become vegans for environmental reasons. Keeping animals takes a lot of resources, including water and food. Also, in some places, people are cutting down trees to create more land for cows. By avoiding food from animals, vegans hope to protect these forest areas.

    Finally, just like Watson, some people believe that being a vegan is healthier. They believe that food from animals causes heart problems, a high body weight and many other health problems.

    1. (1) At first, Watson refused to eat meat____.
    2. (2) The underlined word "vegan" in paragraph 2 refers to a person____.
    3. (3) At first, most people think eating food from animals is____.
    4. (4) The best title for the text is ____.
