BE PART OF A NEW APP!
The Translated Menu
$200-$400 per menu
I have designed an app that is for restaurants where I take their menu and translate it into 15 different languages so their international guests can enjoy the dining experience without having to translate the menu themselves. They simply download (下载) the app from the restaurant’s website which has the menu translated for them in all the 15 languages.
You don’t have to be fluent in any of the languages. Just be good at translating English into other languages with good grammar by whatever translation program you use.
I have a large database in the languages I am using of cooking terms, fruit, vegetables etc. I will present it for you to use and as we go along it will only get larger and make your job much easier. There’ll be a lot of cutting and pasting (粘贴) and then adding grammar. It just has to be written nicely for a restaurant with the descriptions they provide for the dishes.
The restaurants will have the same database so they can cut and paste to change their own menu items whenever they want.
I hope to get 200 plus restaurants this year, so if you need some money and are reliable, honest and good at what I need, then I need you. A good sense of humour and attitude goes a long way as well.
Come and be part of the new app and the experience.

A particularly wet summer in the Midwest may mean fewer pumpkin pies on holiday tables this fall. Pumpkin brand Libby's, owned by Nestlé, supplies about 80 percent of the canned pumpkin used worldwide. This fall, the company reports that unusually soggy weather has left farmers with about half as many pumpkins as usual.
Libby's depends on a special strain (品种) of pumpkins grown in Illinois, known as Libby's Select Dickinson pumpkins. Dickinson pumpkins are especially well suited for baking — they're different from the pumpkins typically carved into jack-o' -lanterns.
Plants need water to grow, but pumpkins generally do best in warm, relatively dry conditions. If there's too much rain, they don't grow to their full size and have a higher water content. Damp conditions also encourage the spread of certain diseases that affect pumpkins.
This past June (an important time of year for pumpkin growth), Illinois received 9.42 inches of rain — more than double the average rainfall for the month. “Out of 121 years of data, that is easily an all-time record,” Department of Agriculture meteorologist Brad Rippey told Climatewire.
The record rainfall is part of a trend, particularly in Illinois. The state has experienced a 10 percent increase in rainfall during the past century and several years in the past decade that were unusually wet or dry. “We're fairly certain that's tied to climate change,” climatologist Jim Angel of the University of Illinois told Climatewire.
This year isn't the first time that rain has caused trouble for Libby's. In 2009, heavy rains affected the harvest, rather than the growing period. Fields were too wet for tractors to gather the crops, and many pumpkins rotted (腐烂) in the fields.
The company is hopeful that it can meet the needs of this year's holiday bakers but suggests stocking up on pumpkin sooner rather than later. Once the last can of pumpkin has shipped out to stores, there won't be any more available until next year's harvest.
24. What does the underlined word “soggy” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Rather freezing. B. Extremely hot. C. Quite mild. D. Very wet.
25. What can we infer about this year's Dickinson pumpkins grown in Illinois?
A. They may taste better.
B. They may grow smaller than before.
C. They may be used as jack-o' -lanterns.
D. They may be harvested in the early summer.
26. What happened to pumpkin farmers in 2009?
A. They had a poor harvest. B. They benefited from Libby's.
C. They stocked many pumpkins. D. They used tractors to gather the crops.
27. Where does this text probably come from?
A. A news report. B. A research paper.
C. A weather forecast. D. A press advertisement.

About a month after I joined Facebook, I got a call from Lori Goler, a highly regarded senior director of marketing at eBay. She made it clear this was a business call. “I want to apply to work with you at Facebook,” she said. “Instead of recommending myself, I want to ask you: What is your biggest problem, and how can I solve it?”
My jaw hit the floor. I had hired thousands of people over the previous decade and no one had ever said anything remotely like that. People usually focus on finding the right role for themselves, with the implication that their skills will help the company. Lori put Facebook’s needs front and center. It was a killer approach. I responded, “Recruiting(招募) is my biggest problem. And, yes, you can solve it.”
Lori never dreamed she would work in recruiting, but she jumped in. She even agreed to trade earnings for acquiring new skills in a new field. Lori did a great job running recruiting and within months was promoted to her current job, leading People@Facebook.
The most common metaphor(暗喻) for careers is a ladder, but this concept no longer applies to most workers. As of 2010, the average American had eleven jobs from the ages of eighteen to forty-six alone. Lori often quotes Pattie Sellers, who came up with a much better metaphor: “Careers are a jungle gym, not a ladder.”
As Lori describes it, there’s only one way to get to the top of a ladder, but there are many ways to get to the top of a jungle gym. The jungle gym model benefits everyone, but especially women who might be starting careers, switching careers, getting blocked by external barriers, or reentering the workforce after taking time off. The ability to create a unique path with occasional dips, detours (弯路), and even dead ends presents great views of many people, not just those at the top. On a ladder, most climbers are stuck staring at the butt of the person above.
28. Why did Lori make the call?
A. She helped Facebook to solve the biggest problem.
B. She wanted to make a business deal with Facebook.
C. She tried to ask for a pay rise in Facebook.
D. She wanted to become an employee in Facebook.
29. What impressed “I” by Lori?
A. Lori was good at running recruiting.
B. Lori attached great importance to Facebook’s needs.
C. Lori jumped in Facebook with no adequate experience.
D. Lori was skilled in marketing at eBay.
30. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Now all people don’t tend to climb the ladder.
B. None on the ladder can enjoy the great views.
C. Jungle gyms offer limited exploration for employees.
D. A pregnant woman, jobless, benefits little from the jungle gyms.
31. What is the best title of the passage?
A. It’s a Jungle Gym, Not a Ladder. B. Facebook’s Biggest Problem.
C. Applying for a Job in Facebook. D. AJungle Gym is Better than a Ladder.
D
It is 7 a.m. on a gray Thursday, and I am on the telephone to a group of strangers struggling with excited laughter. There must be 20 of them — men and women; young and old — laughing. These people have never met; nor do they know each other’s names. Yet for 10 minutes, five mornings a week, they simply pick up the phone and laugh.
This is the “laughter line”, part of the growing industry in laughter treatment, Britain’s latest and most unusual treatment. The simple act of laughing is increasingly being used as a method for dealing with mental and physical disorders. Since it was founded in 2004, the UK Laughter Network has increased ten times, training 8,000 people to use laughter to improve their health.
So how does it work? It reduces stress. A Maryland study found that it expands the inner lining of our blood vessels (血管) and so improves circulation. “Your immune system is strengthened by up to 40 percent,” explains laughter therapist Julie Whitehead, whose work includes training those who work at Great Ormond Street Hospital. Laughter has also been shown to lower blood pressure and improve mental function.
But Lotte Mikkelson, 45, founder of the laughter line, warns that it’s important to see it as a method of treatment — not a cure. “In 2008, I was diagnosed with an incurable disease,” she explains. “My sister died at the age of 32 from it, so I know what could happen. Since I started laughing, I haven’t had any worsening and my health is great. I’d never say laughter is a cure — but it can help.”
32. Why do the strangers laugh on the phone?
A. They want to make more friends.
B. They are struggling with mental illness.
C. They do so for the good of their health.
D. They are taking an optimistic attitude to life.
33. How does the UK Laughter Network help people?
A. By training them to use laughter.
B. By providing them with free medicine.
C. By inspiring them to realize their dreams.
D. By involving them in effective communication.
34. What can we learn from Lotte Mikkelson’s words in the last paragraph?
A. She has recovered from her illness.
B. She thinks of laughter as a cure for her disease.
C. She believes laughter is helpful for her condition.
D. She regrets not teaching her sister laughter treatment.
35. What is the best title of the text?
A. How did a laughter line come into being?
B. Why do people seldom laugh in life?
C. Laughter makes you more popular
D. Laughter is the best medicine

Why Ultra-pure（超高纯的）Water Is Actually Bad for Your Health. Many people are surprised to hear that drinking purified water on a regular, daily basis is actually dangerous. So why is 100% 9 ultra-pure water not good for us? 36
There is no such thing as truly pure water in the natural world. 37 When these minerals dissolve（溶解）in water, they form what we commonly refer to as electrolytes（电解质）.They allow us to perform all the “bioelectrical” functions such as moving, heart-beating, thinking, and seeing.
But pure water fails to provide these fundamental electrolytes. 38 You can think of it this way：imagine a room with no gravity, split in half down the middle. You throw a couple hundred balls into the left side of the room. 39 But if you cut a bunch of holes in the barrier, they will slowly start to spread over to the right side. Eventually, they will be evenly(均衡地) distributed across the entire room.
The water in your organs stays at very specific levels of minerals. When you drink ultra-purified water, it pulls the minerals out of your blood just like the right side of the space room pulled some of the bouncy balls over from the left. 40
Purified water can only be recommended as a way of drawing poisons out of the body. Once this is accomplished, the continued drinking of purified water is a bad idea.
A.Purified water is an active absorber.
B.Since there's no gravity, they bounce around everywhere.
C.It actually tries to rob your body of them when you drink it.
D.Even water in the purest lakes contains small amounts of minerals.
E.If you drank enough of it, the lack of minerals would eventually kill you.
F.The simple answer is that ultra-pure water doesn't provide the natural minerals we need.
G.This is why materials tend to move from more concentrated areas to less concentrated ones.

I come from one of those families where you have to yell at the dinner table to get in a word. Everyone has a strong 41 , and talks at the same time, and no one has a 42 leading to heated arguments. We often talk or even debate with each other on different topics.
43 a family like mine has made me more 44 about the world around me, making me tend to question anything anyone tells me. But it has also made me realize that I’m not a good listener. And when I say “listening”, I’m not 45 to the nodding-your-head-and- 46 -answering-Uh-huh-or Ooh-I-see variety. I mean the kind of listening where you find yourself deeply 47 with the person you’re speaking with, when his story becomes so 48 that your world becomes less about you and more about him. No, I was never very good at that.
I spent summer in South Africa two years ago. I worked for a good non-profit 49 called Noah, which works 50 on behalf of children affected by AIDS. But 51 you asked me what I really did in South Africa, I’d tell you one thing: I listened, and I listened. Sometimes I 52 , but mostly I listened.
And had I not spent two months 53 , I might have missed the 54 moment when a quiet little girl at one of Noah’s community centers, orphaned (孤儿) at the age of three, whispered after a long 55 , “I love you.”
56 that summer, I knew how to hear. I could sit down with anyone and hear their 57 and nod and respond at the 58 time—but most of the time I was 59 about the next words out of my own mouth. Ever since my summer in South Africa, I have noticed that it’s in those moments when my mouth is closed and my 60 is wide open that I’ve learned the most about other people, and perhaps about myself.
