China’s future high-speed trains might be self-driving, with a top speed around 600 kilometer per hour and an adjustable interior and entertainment system with high-speed Internet,a senior engineer said on Monday.
Fuxing, which debuted first on the line connecting Beijing and Shanghai, has an operating speed of 350 km/h---the world’s fastest. It now serves a dozen major cities, from Chengdu, Sichuan Province, to Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, according to the China Railway Corporation.
Chinese scientists are developing a new model of Fuxing that can adopt to different track widths and still run consistently at 400 km/h, Ding said, an officer of the corporation.
“these new trains can be used effectively in Russia or countries along the Belt and Road Initiative.”
“the new model will enter service within five years, about the same period needed to create and launch the Fuxing. In the next 8 to 10 years, China will launch a high-speed bullet train that is suspended from a magnetic rail-nearly twice the speed of the one currently operating in Shanghai.” he said.
Chinese engineers also are aiming to make future trains more comfortable, including adding more leg room in all carriages, stronger Internet signals and some high-class seats that might involve adjustable interior and entertainment systems, such as windows that can change color or serve as movie screens.
Artificial intelligence will be included in future trains, using equipment such as scanners that automatically check and deduct fees when passengers board and exit trains without having to deal with tickets.
Trains also will have advanced self-driving systems that can predict abnormal conditions and automatically check slow in case of emergencies. These systems will be finished within three years.
Now, China’s high-speed railway network has extended about 25000 kilometers of track, which makes up about 60 percent of the world’s total, according to the corporation.
1. Which of the following statements about the future trains true?
A. Passengers can access high-speed Internet.
B. It will run at a top speed of 600 km/h
C. All of its systems will be adjustable
D. There will be no driver on it
2. The underlined word “debuted” in Pargraph 2 can be replaced by “ ”
A. walked B. appeared C. relied D. jumped
3. We can learning from the passage that .
A. The track width in Russia may be different.
B. The present Fuxing is a magnetically suspending train
C. China has a total length of 25000 kilometers of rail track
D. The new train to be in service in 5 years has nothing to do with Fuxing.

C
How could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments-mostly for entertainment purposes-is fair and respectful?
Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals. However, most zoos remain "collection" of interesting "things" rather than protective habitats. Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural homes.
Zoos claim to educate people and save endangered species, but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals' natural behavior, intelligence, or beauty. Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only mention the species' name, diet, and natural range. The animals' normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos don't usually take care of the animals' natural needs.
The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise. This results in unusual and self-destructive behavior called zoochosis. A world-wide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages. Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.
Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered. Captive breeding (圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats, Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild. Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species (物种) dying out. In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers. Haven't we seen enough competitions to name baby animals?
Actually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals' natural habitats.
1.In the state of zoochosis, animals ____ according to the passage.
A. remain in cages B. behave strangely C. often attack other animals D. enjoy walking around
3. What does the author try to argue in the passage?
A. Zoos are not worth the public support.
B. Zoos fail in their attempt to save animals.
C. Zoos should treat animals as human beings.
D. Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.
4. The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by ____.
A. pointing out the faults in what zoos do
B. using evidence he has collected at zoos
C. questioning the way animals live
D. discussing the advantages of natural habitats
5. Although he is against zoos, the author would still agree that ____.
A. zoos have to keep animals in small cages
B. most animals in zoos are endangered species
C. some endangered animals are reproduced in zoos
D. it's acceptable to keep animals away from their habitats

Training “smart” is more important than the amount of daily practice
Too often an athlete believes that the more he or she practices, the more proficient he/ she will become. 1 It can also be harmful to achieving the desired outcome. An athlete who practices frequently and hard without an overall plan will be more likely to suffer the effects of overtraining rather than actually improving performance. 2 Yet, by developing a set of specific goals and a plan for reaching those goals, athletes can more effectively use their practice time and even reduce the time required in practice to attain their goals. Obviously, this does not mean that the martial artist can achieve rank or win tournaments with little practice. 3 .
Setting performance goals is beneficial for a number of reasons. 4 When the martial artist is able to observe progress towards a goal on a daily or weekly basis, he or she is more likely to remain interested in achieving that goal. If instead, he/ she engages in routine practice towards a belt rank that is six months away, it is easier to become discouraged. In addition, goal setting helps the athlete know what is expected which allows for greater attention to a particular skill that needs to be developed. 5 Finally, setting realistic, achievable goals increases the athletes’ self-confidence which is crucial to the ultimate outcome of success. Self-confidence increases because his/ her attitude regarding success becomes more positive as goals are accomplished.
A. It is not always the case.
B. However, such training is ineffective
C. It reduces boredom and increases motivation.
D. Thus, practice becomes more focused and efficient.
E. It means that the athlete does not need to waste time.
F. Firstly, it requires less patience and boosts confidence.
G. Typically, they will experience burn-out, exhaustion, and increased injuries.

What are the basic elements (要素) of good manners? Certainly a strong sense of justice is one; courtesy is often 36 more than a highly developed sense of fair play.

Suddenly, at a 41 place, the car ahead pulled off the road. 42 that its owner might have engine trouble, my friend stopped and asked if anything was wrong." 43 ,"said the other driver, "but you've endured (忍受) my dust this far; I'll 44 with yours the rest of the way."

Turning back to the man, he _52_ to make great efforts to open the bottle without success. 53 he took it into the kitchen and returned shortly, saying that he had managed to loosen it-but only with a pair of pliers (钳子).
Yet another element of politeness is the ability to treat all people _54 , in spite of all status or importance. 55 when you have doubts about some people, act as if they are worthy of your best manners. You may also be astonished to find out what they really are. Courtesy is the key to a happier world.

The first best friend I ever _57_ (make), at age five, was a complete game changer. This new little friend of mine _58_ (instant) became my partner of everything.

I'm almost 20 and I still do those very same things with my girlfriends now. Over the years, those friendships _59_(get) me through breakups, _60_(stress) school moments, and times when I felt so low about _61_(I) that I barely wanted to go outside and see the sunshine.
_62_my girlfriends, I'd probably spend most weekends alone, because I wouldn't have plans to go to brunch, to go out on the town, or just to go for a walk with _63_ delicious cup of coffee in hand.

Thirteen-year-old Amy lost her mother in a car accident. She had no choice but to move from New Zealand to Canada to live with her father Thomas.
Thomas was an inventor, living on a farm. He brought Amy back to his messy house, which had not been cleaned up for years. Most of the rooms in the house were used for storing his gliders(滑翔机) and their parts.
One day, Amy happened to see Thomas testing his glider but he soon crashed in the surrounding field. Scared and unsure
if her father was all right, Amy heard his father's shout of triumph. She couldn't understand her father’s strange behavior so that she barely talked with him." My new life is absolutely miserable". Amy thought with tears in her eyes.
It was not until Amy found the eggs that her life changed. While exploring the area around the farm, Amy discovered an abandoned nest of 16 goose eggs under a fallen tree. She gathered all of the eggs and brought them back to the barn where she took a heating lamp to provide light and warmth for them.
One afternoon after school, Amy was thrilled to discover all of the eggs had hatched. The baby geese and Amy looked at each other and a bond immediately formed. The geese assumed Amy, the first thing they saw, was their mother. Amy asked her father, "Can I keep the baby geese, please? "Yes," Thomas agreed. Although he knew there’d be a lot of challenges waiting for them, it might be a chance to improve their relationship.
Looking after the baby geese very carefully, Amy even named all of them like a real mother. Soon winter arrived, it was the time for migrant birds like geese to go south for the cold days. Thomas made a great many attempts to teach the geese to fly but none of them followed him. They just stuck close to Amy all the time.
