读得快才能买得快:文字会慢慢消失的书!
"The Book That Can’t Wait" seeks to strengthen bonds between first-time writers and their readers by getting their books read quickly.
"等不起的图书"这一发明催促人们尽快阅读图书,从而加强了新人作家和读者之间的联系。
Argentinean independent publishers Eterna Cadencia are publishing an anthology of new Latin authors using special ink that disappears once it comes in contact with sun and air, completely disappearing within 2months time after opening the book. This makes for an interesting approach to motivate book buyers to read books more promptly, giving first-time authors the attention they need to survive:
阿根廷独立出版商Eterna Cadencia使用了新型油墨,出版了拉美新人作家的文集。这种新型图书一旦打开,接触到阳光和空气,它的文字就会在2个月后完全消失。这样的变化促使读者购买书籍后立刻阅读,从而给予新人作者更多关注。
"The Book That Can’t Wait" tackles an important problem for new authors. The innovative independent publishers teamed up with DRAFTFCB Buenos Aires to develop this initiative.
"等不及的图书"这项发明解决了新人作者面临的重要的市场化问题。这些具有创造思维的独立出版商们已与布宜诺斯艾利斯DRAFTFCB广告公司合作,继续推广这一创意产品。
Books are very patient objects. We buy them, and then they wait for us to read them. Days, months, even years. That’s OK for books, but not for new authors. If people don’t read their first books, they'll never make it to a second.
图书都是非常耐心的。我们购买了它们,接着它们就静静等我们去翻阅。分秒流逝,乃至经年累月。图书当然等得起,可新人作家就不行了。要是人们没有读过他们的第一本书,下一本就基本无望了。
That’s why Eterna Cadencia, an independent publisher and book store, decide to create something different to launch their new authors into the market. The
books can't wait. How’s that? We developed the unique kind of ink, an ink that starts to disappear when it comes in contact with light and air. Then we printed an anthology of the best new American Latin author, using this ink, to create a new kind of book. A book that lasts only two months once you open it.
既是独立出版商又是书店的Eterna Cadencia 才会因此决定剑走偏锋,采用新方法来推出新人作家。图书等不得,那怎么办呢?他们创造了一种新型墨水,之后用它来出版的拉美新人作家的一本文集。这种油墨一旦接触阳光和空气,就会慢慢消失。也就是说,这本书只能放2个月,否则文字都会消失。
We presented "The book can't wait" for the critics and the press. The invention is a success. Hundreds of people came to the bookstore to pick up their book. We gave away the entire first edition. The very same it was released. We received thousands of requests for the book.
他们向评论家和出版社展示了"等不起的图书"这一发明。事实证明,它是成功的。成百上千的人来书店购买这种图书,乃至全线售罄。同样的图书一经出版,订单就纷至沓来。
And the best results? This time we had the guarantee that our new authors were read. Then when to use the book as a platform for other different titles, because there’re a lot of literatures out there that doesn't deserve to wait on the shelf. And ours won’t wait at all.
这就是最好的结果。新人作者的作品都得到了阅读。接下来,他们将以此为平台,延伸到其他类型的作品。还有很多其他的文学作品不能默默地在书架上蒙尘,它们的作者再不能等待时间的消磨。
教育已成奢侈品!月薪3万还撑不起孩子一个暑假?
What’s the latest luxury status symbol in China? It’s not a handbag by Louis Vuitton or Gucci. According to Chinese parents, it’s their children. Shelling out a small fortune for their children’s schooling, summer vacations, and extracurriculars is the latest trend for Chinese parents looking to distinguish themselves.
中国最新的奢侈品的标志是什么?不是路易威登或古驰的手提包。中国父母们表示,是他们的孩子。对中国父母而言,拿出一大笔钱用于孩子的学校教育、暑期和课外活动是他们彰显自己的最新趋势。
This summer, an article titled, "A Monthly Salary of 30,000 RMB ($4,493) is Not Enough for My Child’s Summer Vacation" went viral on WeChat Moments. Written by a high-paid executive mom, it tells the story of how she can hardly keep up with the extravagant overseas summer programs that she lines up for her daughter.
今年夏天,一篇名为"月薪3万,还是撑不起孩子的一个暑假"的文章在微信朋友圈疯传。这篇文章的作者是一位高薪的高管母亲,文章称,她为女儿安排了奢侈的海外暑期课程,但她的工资几乎满足不了这些课程的费用。
The mother says the total cost of her daughter’s education for the summer is 35,000 yuan, including 20,000 yuan for a 10-day US study tour and other tutoring classes that cost up to 10,000 yuan.
这位母亲表示,她女儿的暑期教育总共花费了35000元,其中为期10天的美国学习之旅需要20000元,而其他辅导课程的费用共计达10000元。
Immediately after the post was published, Chinese netizens responded furiously, with many Weibo users asking, ‘Can an expensive summer vacation really make your kids ‘better’ than others?"
这篇帖子一经发出就引起了中国网民的激烈回应,许多微博用户问,"昂贵的暑期课程真的就能让你的孩子比其他人‘更优秀’吗"?
Other internet users wondered about the intentions of parents making such a sacrifice. "Is this to fulfil the parents’ vanity or to make the children happy?"
其他网友质疑父母们做出如此牺牲的目的。"这是为了满足父母的虚荣心还是为了让孩子开心?"
Linda Xu strongly oppose such criticism. Xu, who works as an Operations Manager in an international automobile company in Beijing, said that she spent less than that of the mom in the post, though the cost of different tutoring classes that she selected for her eight-year-old son to take during the summer "definitely exceeded 20,000 RMB."
琳达·徐强烈反对了这样的指责。徐女士在北京一家跨国汽车公司担任运营经理,她表示,虽然与帖子中的母亲相比,她的支出要少一些,但在暑假期间,她也为自己8岁的儿子选择了不同的辅导班,而所有的费用"肯定超过了20000元"。
She rationalized her decision by saying, "This is the luxury I didn’t get to enjoy when I was young, and I hope to start early on my kid’s elite education so that he can stand out among his peers as he grows older."
她解释了自己的决定,称"这是我小时候没有享受到的奢侈,我希望我的孩子可以早早地接受精英教育,这样随着他慢慢长大,他就可以从同龄人中脱颖而出。"
According to a report on global education expenses, 93 percent of Chinese parents have been paying for kids’ private schools, a figure surpassing that of the United States (46 percent), France (32 percent), and the United Kingdom, respectively, by at least 40 percent.
一份关于全球教育费用的报告指出,93%的中国父母会为孩子支付私立学校的学费,而这一比例分别超过了美国(46%)、法国(32%)和英国(至少40%)。
The strong emphasis placed by Chinese parents on education has fueled the growth of the children’s education market in China lately. What’s more, there has been a myth among Chinese mothers that the quality of education is positively correlated with the price they pay. However, the loosely regulated education market means that the correlation is not always true.
近来,中国父母对教育的重视刺激了中国教育市场的增长。而且在中国妈妈之间还有一个说法,那就是教育质量与他们支出的学费呈正相关。然而,监管松散的教育市场意味着这种相关性并不总是如此。
"This irrational phenomenon is unique to the middle class in China ," writes Yu Xiulan, the Professor of Education at Nanjing University .
"这种不合理的现象是中国中产阶级特有的,"南京大学教育学教授余秀兰写道。
She reasons that the country’s elite class doesn’t have to worry about changing the social status through education, whereas for lower-class households, they simply cannot afford it. China’s middle class comes in between, whose anxiety about keeping their current social status urges them to spend a great deal of money
in education, even at the expense of their quality of life, in order to make them feel secure.
她解释道,中国的精英阶层不必担心教育会改变他们的社会地位,而对于平民阶层的家庭来说,他们根本就负担不起这样的教育支出。中国的中产阶级处于两者之间,他们对保持自身当前社会地位的担忧使他们在教育上投入了大量的资金,为了让自己觉得踏实,甚至不惜牺牲自己的生活质量。

Dear Leslie,
I am very happy that you have made great progress in learning Chinese and you are interested in Chinese culture. Now I'll tell you the next learning programme. On July 20, we are going to learn poems of the Tang Dynasty which you are interested in in the Lecture Hall. As a foreign learner, it is difficult for you to understand the true meaning and the culture of them. Therefore, before class, you can read some books related to the history of the Tang Dynasty to better appreciate the poems.
Be sure to go to the Lecture Hall on time. You cannot miss the wonderful poems.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua

鸟儿胎教
★★★☆☆
6分钟
Before birth, babies can tell the difference between loud sounds and voices. They can even distinguish their mother’s voice from that of a female stranger. But when it comes to embryonic learning (胎教), birds could rule the roost. As recently reported in The Auk: Ornithological Advances, some mother birds may teach their young to sing even before they hatch (孵化). New-born chicks can then imitate their mom’s call within a few days of entering the world.
This educational method was first observed in 2012 by Sonia Kleindorfer, a biologist at Flinders University in South Australia, and her colleagues. Female Australian superb fairy wrens were found to repeat one sound over and over again while hatching their eggs. When the eggs were hatched, the baby birds made the similar chirp to their mothers—a sound that served as their regular "feed me!" call.
To find out if the special quality was more widespread in birds, the researchers sought the red-backed fairy wren, another species of Australian songbird. First they collected sound data from 67 nests in four sites in Queensland before and after hatching. Then they identified begging calls by analyzing the order and number of notes. A computer analysis blindly compared calls produced by mothers and chicks, ranking them by similarity.
It turns out that baby red-backed fairy wrens also emerge chirping like their moms. And the more frequently mothers had called to their eggs, the more similar were the babies’ begging calls. In addition, the team set up a separate experiment that suggested that the baby birds that most closely imitated their mom’s voice were rewarded with the most food.
This observation hints that effective embryonic learning could signal neurological (神经系统的) strengths of children to parents. An evolutionary
inference can then be drawn. "As a parent, do you invest in quality children, or do you invest in children that are in need?" Kleindorfer asks. "Our results suggest that they might be going for quality."
58.The underlined phrase in Paragraph 1 means"____________".
A. be the worst B. be the best
C. be the as bad D. be just as good
59. What are Kleindorfer’s findings based on?
A. Similarities between the calls of moms and chicks.
B. The observation of fairy wrens across Australia.
C. The data collected from Queensland’s locals.
D. Controlled experiments on wrens and other birds.
60. Embryonic learning helps mother birds to identify the baby birds which ____________.
A. can receive quality signals
B. are in need of training
C. fit the environment better
D. make the loudest call
【话题解读】文章大意:文章介绍了鸟类在胎教方面的超凡本领。实验发现鸟儿在孵化时不停地鸣叫是为了教会以后出生的雏鸟歌唱的本领,从而挑选出能够适应环境的雏鸟。
58. B【解析】根据第二段"when the errs were hatched, the baby birds made the similar chirp to their mothers"可知,鸟儿在孵化小鸟的时候,鸣叫对未出生的小鸟有很大影响,它们被孵化后也能发出类似的声音,说明鸟儿很擅长胎教。
59. A【解析】根据第三段"the researchers sought the red-backed fairy wren, another species of Australian songbird."可知,研究人员并未在全澳洲范围展开调查,排除B项;未对其它鸟类进行记录研究,排除D项。根据倒数第三段中的"A computer analysis blindly compared calls produced by mothers and chicks, ranking them by similarity."可知,A项正确。

Why College Is Not Home
The college years are supposed to be a time for important growth in autonomy(自主性) and the development of adult identity. However, now they are becoming an extended period of adolescence, during which many of today’s students and are not shouldered with adult responsibilities.
For previous generations, college was a decisive break from parental control; guidance and support needed to come from people of the same age and from within. In the past two decades, however, continued connection with and dependence on family, thanks to cell phones, email and social media, have increased significantly. Some parents go so far as to help with coursework. Instead of promoting the idea of college as a passage from the shelter of the family to autonomy and adult responsibility, universities have given in to the idea that they should provide the same environment as that of the home.
To prepare for increased autonomy and responsibility, college needs to be a time of exploration and experimentation. This process involves "trying on " new ways of thinking about oneself bother intellectually(在思维方面) and personally. While we should provide "safe spaces" within colleges, we must also make it safe to express opinions and challenge majority views. Intellectual growth and flexibility are fostered by strict debate and questioning.
Learning to deal with the social world is equally important. Because a college community(群体) differs from the family, many students will struggle to find a
sense of belonging. If students rely on administrators to regulate their social behavior and thinking pattern, they are not facing the challenge of finding an identity within a larger and complex community.
Moreover, the tendency for universities to monitor and shape student behavior runs up against another characteristic of young adults: the response to being controlled by their elders. If acceptable social behavior is too strictly defined(规定) and controlled, the insensitive or aggressive behavior that administrators are seeking to minimize may actually be encouraged.
It is not surprising that young people are likely to burst out, particularly when there are reasons to do so. Our generation once joined hands and stood firm at times of national emergency. What is lacking today is the conflict between adolescent’s desire for autonomy and their understanding of an unsafe world. Therefore, there is the desire for their dorms to be replacement homes and not places to experience intellectual growth.
Every college discussion about community values, social climate and behavior should include recognition of the developmental importance of student autonomy and self-regulation, of the necessary tension between safety and self-discovery.
67. What’s the author’s attitude toward continued parental guidance to college students?
A. Sympathetic. B. Disapproving.
C. Supportive. D. Neutral.
68. The underlined word "passage" in Paragraph 2 means _________.
A. change B. choice
C. text D. extension
69. According to the author, what role should college play?
A. To develop a shared identity among students.
B. To define and regulate students’ social behavior.
C. To provide a safe world without tension for students.
D. To foster students’ intellectual and personal development.
70. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage?
I: Introduction P:Point Sp:Sub-point(次要点) C:Conclusion
67.B 【解析】观点态度题。根据第一段"The college years are supposed to be a time for important growth in autonomy(自主性) and the development of adult identity. However..."可知,作者认为,大学不应该成为孩子们依赖的"家",说明作者不赞成父母继续指导上大学的孩子,故选B。
68.A 【解析】词义猜测题。根据"from the shelter of the family to autonomy and adult responsibility"可知,从受家庭的庇护到有自主性和肩负成年人的责任,这是一种转变、变化,故选A。
70.C 【解析】篇章结构题。根据第四段"Learning to deal with the social world is equally important."中的"equally important"和第五段的"Moreover"可知,第四段和第五段是第三段的次要论点,故选C。

(句式升级)My English is just OK and the two main problems in my study are that I feel it difficult to learn words by heart,and that I often feel nervous when speaking English.
Dear Ms.Li,
I’m very happy to have you as our English teacher.
As the world is becoming a global village,English is getting more and more important,so mastering English means we can see the world through a new window.
My English is just OK and the two main problems in my study are that I feel it difficult to learn words by heart,and that I often feel nervous when speaking English. I really hope that you can give me good advice on how to memorize new words. Another suggestion is to give us more chances to practice speaking. I believe we can make much progress in English with your help.
Thank you!

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
If you are like most English learners, you may be familiar with this: You think you understand a topic. Yet when asked to use what you have learned, you are not able to remember the information. Not being able to retrieve (数据检索) new ideas could happen on a test or even in a conversation.
Sarah Lynn, an educational consultant and teacher, thinks English learners can improve their ability to remember and use new words by testing themselves. She adds that self-testing improves retrieval — the ability to use and remember new words.
Lynn is not the only expert who recommends self-testing. A paper in Journal of Applied Research in Memory and Cognition says one benefit of testing practice is that it improves retrieval. Retrieving information once makes retrieving that information easier in the future. In addition, the paper says, when students test themselves as part of studying, they learn what they do not know. When students know what they do not understand, they can pay attention to overcoming their weaknesses. Lynn recommends that learners test themselves by getting away from what they are studying. Then, they should test themselves by thinking about what they have learned. She recommends that learners make themselves write or speak something. Lynn suggests reading something or watching a video on the topic, then getting rid of the reading or video material and summarizing it. This will allow learners to test what they know.
Next time you are studying English, try to test yourself. But do not just assume that you can read something once or twice and fully understand it. Even if you highlight important points or take notes in a class, you probably do not fully understand what you learned. After all, Olympic athletes cannot learn how to swim or run just from reading a book. They have to practice swimming or running every day for years. They often compete in races to test their skills.
1.What’s the common situation faced by English learners?
A. They fail to come up with new ideas.
B. They are not familiar with a certain topic.
C. They don’t learn as well as they think.
D. They don’t know how to improve their test-taking skills.
2.Which is the advice given by Lynn about self-testing?
A. Recall what’s learned with the book closed.
B. Remember what’s learned by repetitive reciting.
C. Question your teachers on what you doubt bravely.
D. Challenge yourself to learn from videos.
3.Why are Olympic athletes mentioned?
A. To show how to be successful athletes.
B. To make people confident of learning.
C. To warn English learners not to be proud.
D. To stress the significance of practice.

10.will be recognized/are recognized
