Smart Cameras to Help You Take Better Photos
Google Clips
One of the latest to launch is Google Clips. It is designed to be put somewhere in a room to take pictures by itself. It can also be attached to an object or a person's clothing.
Google says machine learning helps the camera choose the best times and situations for taking pictures and videos. Interested buyers can join a waiting list to be informed when it is on the market.
GoPro Hero
GoPro also uses machine learning to power its QuikStories characteristic. This tool takes existing photos and videos and automatically creates a finished video piece, complete with music and effects.
Snap Spectacles
Messaging app Snapchat sells a pair of sunglasses with a builtin
camera that can record short videos with the push of a button. Snap Inc. says the product, called Spectacles, is designed to “catch the moment, without taking you out of it”．
The glasses can record short video clips that can be shared with Snapchat users. Snap Inc. has started selling its Spectacles sunglasses online in the United States.
Apple iPhone X
Apple's new iPhone X is being launched with its new Face ID system that it says will unlock the phone just by having the user look at it. This replaces the Touch ID on previous ones that used a fingerprint to unlock the phone.

One day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was to walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for the summer. This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem—inability to read.
In the library, I found my way into the “Children's Room”. I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently had a beagle, the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child. He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle. Without opening the book titled Amos, the Beagle with a Plan, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.
Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, very slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book.
My mother's call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.
I never told my mother about my “miraculous” experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD in literature, and authored his own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words has held.
24．The author's mother told him to borrow a book in order to ________.
A．encourage him to do more walking
B．help cure him of his reading problem
C．let him spend a meaningful summer
D．make him learn more about weapons
25．The book caught the author's eye because ________.
A．it contained pretty pictures of animals
B．he found its title easy to understand
C．he was reminded of his own dog
D．he liked children's stories very much
26．What can be concluded from the last paragraph?
A．The author's mother rewarded him with books.
B．The author's mother read the same book.
C．The author has become a successful writer.
D．The author has had happy summers ever since.
27．Which one could be the best title of the passage?
A．My Passion for Reading B．Mum's Strict Order
C．Reunion with My Beagle D．The Charm of a Book

According to a new study, putting preschoolers in bed by 8 pm could reduce their chances of becoming overweight or obese later in life by half. Preschoolers are children around the age of 4 or 5.
The World Health Organization says obesity can lead to serious longterm health problems like diabetes, heart disease and stroke.
Researchers from the Ohio State University's College of Public Health have found that young children who go to bed after 9 pm are twice as likely to be obese later in life. The researchers wrote their findings in The Journal of Pediatrics.
The lead author of the study is Sarah Anderson. She is an associate
professor of epidemiology (流行病学). Anderson says that, for parents, the results of the study support the importance of creating a bedtime routine.
She says that having a usual bedtime routine is something families can do to lower their children's risk of becoming overweight.
Researchers used data from 977 children for the study. These children are part of a larger project called the Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development. The project follows healthy babies born in 1991 in 10 cities in the US.
When these children turned 15 years old, the researchers looked at their rates of obesity. Of those with the earliest bedtimes, only one out of ten was obese. Of those who went to bed between 8 and 9 pm, 16 percent became obese. And out of those with the latest bedtimes, 23 percent became obese.
The World Health Organization reported in 2014 that the number of overweight babies and young children worldwide had increased from 31 million in 1990 to 44 million in 2012. If that trend continues，the WHO warns, there will be 70 million obese children in the world by 2025.
28．According to the passage, the risk of obesity ________.
A．can be cut by half if children go to bed by 9 pm
B．can lead to low blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease
C．is the highest at the age of 4 or 5
D．is higher for those children who sleep late at night
29．The underlined word “obese” in the first paragraph means ________.
A．heavy B．light
C．fat D．slim
30．Which of the following statements is TRUE about the research?
A．The research is organized by the World Health Organization.
B．The result shows that children sleeping before 8 pm have the lowest rate of obesity.
C．The findings are based on the data provided by The Journal of Pediatrics.
D．The research is funded by the Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development.
31．What is the author's attitude towards the result of the research?
A．Objective. B．Disappointed.
C．Positive. D．Satisfied.
D
Petra may be the treasure of an ancient world, hidden behind a tall mountain. Its beautiful scenery makes it one of the greatest ancient sites still standing today. Common sense says “perhaps there's nothing on the planet that looks like it”. Without doubt, there's nothing in the world that resembles it. The rockcarved rosered town of Petra is filled with a mysterious charm that had been “designed to strike wonder into all who entered it”．
Petra is the legacy from the Nabataeans, a hardworking group of Arab people who settled in southern Jordan more than 2,000 years ago. Admired then because of their culture, architecture and complex dams and water channels, Petra has become a UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) World Heritage Site and been listed in the New Seven Wonders of the World.
Petra is the most wellknown site in Jordan located about 262 kilometers south of Amman and 133 kilometers north of Aqaba. The Dead Sea is 80 kilometers north of it. The steeply rising sides of a long, cool, dark and narrow gorge (峡谷) basically keep the sunlight out. Suddenly the gorge opens right into a natural square covered with Petra's most
wellknown monuments, which glows in the bright sun. The ancient city shows the visitors its beautiful look. The town is large and the quality of the architecture is surprising. It leads someone to think about the creativity from the Nabataeans who made Petra their capital.
Petra was the top architectural site for more than 400 years until it was occupied by the Romans in 106 AD. It was seen first when discovered in 1812 after being lost through the 16th century for nearly 300 years! Petra has 800 monuments, including buildings, tombs, baths, halls ，temples, and streets, which were mostly carved in the pretty sandstone. Petra sights are in their finest in the early morning and the late afternoon. Once the sun warms the colorful stones, you will see the majesty of Petra.
32．What do we know about Petra from the passage?
A．It is on the top of a mountain.
B．It was a palace for the king.
C．It is a unique site.
D．It was built by the Nabataeans in 106 AD.
33．Where is Petra according to the passage?
A．It is about 133 km south of Aqaba.
B．It is about 262 km north of Amman.
C．It is 80 km south of the Dead Sea.
D．It is in southeast Jordan.
34．According to the passage, Petra was lost ________.
A．in the 1500s B．in the 1600s
C．in the 1700s D．in the 1800s
35．What is the best title for the passage?
A．Jordan, a Country Worth Visiting
B．Petra, Jordan's Wonder of the World
C．The Treasure Hidden Behind a Mountain
D．Petra, the Bestknown Ancient City in the World

WorkLife Balance
Many articles are focused on the importance of worklife balance. Below are some suggestions mentioned frequently.
Decide on priorities (优先的事物). __36__ You do not need to do everything in one night. Prioritize what needs to be done early in the week and what can be done later. If you are focusing on a few projects, you will do a better job on each assignment.
Don't be an overachiever. Being an allaround person is good. However, you do not need to be the captain of the football team, the lead in each activity and the employee of the month. __37__ And at the same time get your work done and have time to relax or hang out with friends.
__38__ If there's an activity that no longer brings you joy, think about whether you really want to continue pursuing it. It's hard to let go of something you've invested in for years, but if it has become a burden with little return for you, it's time to give it up.
Take care of yourself. __39__ Do not sacrifice (牺牲) your health because you are too busy to take care of yourself. A combination of a healthy diet, regular exercise and plenty of sleep helps you relieve stress.
Schedule time for relaxation. Set aside half an hour a day to do something that just makes you feel good. Read a book or a favorite magazine, take a walk or ride your bike. __40__
A．Give up if necessary.
B．Make a considerate plan in advance.
C．Decide what is the most important and what needs to be done first.

For as long as her parents can remember, 11yearold Breana Carsey has had this crazy dream. She has always wanted a mommy horse who would give birth to a baby horse, who would then grow up to become a racing champion.
“Absolutely, this was a fairy tale for her from day one. We put it off for five years because we don't have a farm，” said her father, Brian Carsey, who explained that his daughter has “me wrapped around her finger.”
Her horse was born in the spring of 2013. Breana named it MJB Got Faith for the faith she instantly had in him.
“I really loved him. He's super soft too，” she said.
But that quick bond posed a real problem for this Dad. See, for whatever reason, Brian thought once he explained to his daughter that her horse could never run in a race—that it was a runt from poor breeding stock—she would just agree to sell it.
“She thought her horse was priceless，” he said. “So I had a chat with my wife and we really got ourselves in a mess here. And I didn't know how we were going to get out of this. So we took him to the races, the horse that I thought we should have got rid of already.”
Brian was stuck, committed to boarding and training this long shot to end all long shots. And this is not a wealthy family. Brian runs a small company. And Ohio racing, which is harnessstyle racing, is a $900
millionayear industry.
MJB Got Faith was so slow that it was barely even qualified to compete but then somehow won his first race, then his second, third and fourth qualifying him for the state championship held in Columbus, Ohio.
“And I said to my daughter, ‘If you finish third, you should be so thankful，’” Brian remembered. “She said, ‘Daddy, if he finishes last, I'm going to be thankful. But he's going to win.’”
This little horse won an important match.

As we know, more and more ladies are beginning to lose weight in different ways now. Recently, our class have had a heated discussion about it.
About 60% students are for it. They think one can stay slim and look
beautiful by losing weight. If one does this in a proper way, it can stop one from getting fat and can keep one healthy. Besides, taking everyday exercise and going on a diet can help to train a person's perseverance. However, the others have different ideas. They hold the view that it is a waste of time, energy and money. Some often try to lose weight by taking weightloss pills. As a result, their health gets damaged badly. What's worse, whoever takes weight loss too seriously often lacks confidence.
In my opinion, if one is too fat and often falls ill, he or she should try to lose weight with the help of a doctor.

Paragraph 1：
This little horse won an important match. Breana went home with a hundred thousand dollars that day. She contributed half of it to charity and intended to use the other half to buy a farm. “I just want to have a farm and be able to walk MJB Got Faith，” she said. Since we first told this story last year, Breana has lived a better life. She got a national horse racing award and her story was reported by many media.
Paragraph 2：
Her dad now has a racehorse whose name is Steve Hartman. Perhaps because of many reasons, Brian has not won a race yet. Hopefully his daughter will allow him to live on her farm. He watches his daughter walking the horse on the farm. Sometimes he walks his horse. He had a chat with his daughter about the future. She said she would like to take part in more competitions. And she wanted to live with her family forever.

M：Yes, we certainly did. But after we went back home, it took us two days to rest up. All that driving was really a trouble.
Text 10
Everybody needs sleep so that their bodies can make up the energy used in the day. Growth takes place mainly when we are sleeping. Children need more sleep than grownups because they are still growing. Newborn babies sleep nearly all the time except when they are being fed. Although we are not conscious of anything when we are asleep, sometimes we dream. Often strange things seem to be happening to us. Dreams are a mixture of our fears and hopes and what we have done and thought. Sleep and dreams affect our moods and the moods affect our performance throughout the day. Generally, we will feel happier in the day if we sleep well at night.
