On the night of August 24, 2001, my last night of freedom before my freshman of high school started, everything changed when my friend's car hit a guardrail(护栏) with me inside.
I lost most of my right leg. At the hospital, I just kept telling myself to hold on. Weeks later I made a deal with the hospital staff that once I could roll onto my side, I could be discharged. I am proud to say that just one short week later, I was going home. The day I left the hospital, I made a promise to myself to never give up and to always live life to the fullest.
In February of 2013, my life was forever changed when I attended the Executive Assistant Organization's Behind Every Leader event. During the conference, a sweet lady by the name of Alisson Frew dared to ask me why I did not wear a prosthesis(假肢). My short and simple answer was, "I don't have sixty thousand dollars." The next morning I was in tears as I learned that Alisson, Jeff Hoffman, founder of Priceline, and a dozen other people, had bought a prosthesis for me. From the first step, it was apparent to me just how much this would mean to me.
For a year I adjusted to the leg and settled into everyday life, until one day I realized I was making a life but not living one. After almost 13 years of thinking that I was confident, I had an unfamiliar feeling sweep over me. For the first time in my life, I was not only confident but I was empowered! I desired to help those around me, to have them experience this unbelievable feeling for themselves.
In April of 2014, I started modeling. My dream is that one day a little girl will see me on a poster at her favourite clothing store and say, "Wow, she is amazing, and she only has one leg. I could do that too someday, even though I have a disability."

A Japanese company, NextTechnology, has created a robot dog that can tell you how bad your feet smell, by using a powerful sensor fixed in its nose. If your feet don't have a bad smell, Hana-chan will happily wag its tail, if it's exposed to feet that are mildly smelly, it'll start to bark, and if they give off an extremely bad smell, it'll just fall over like the smell caused it to faint (昏倒).
Foot odor (脚臭) is a big deal in Japan, where it's customary for people to take off their shoes whenever they enter someone's home. In fact, exposing others to bodily odors can be considered annoyance in Japan. Some of the most brilliant minds in the country's tech industry have been trying to solve this problem. Last year, Thanko started selling armpit (腋窝) fans designed to keep people's armpits nice and dry. Now, we have Hana-chan.
The robot dog has a special sensor for a nose, and can tell you if your feet smell just by sniffing them for a few seconds. According to some media reports, Hana-chan can help solve the problem of extremely smelly feet by spraying them with air freshener, but it's unclear whether this feature comes built-in, or if you'll have to pay extra for it.
According to researchers at NextTechnology, the idea for Hana-chan was inspired by a person who desperately wanted some way to know if his feet smelled. He told us his daughter had said his feet were smelly," NextTechnology's Kimika Tsuji said. "But he didn't want to know how bad the odor was because he would feel hurt. That's why we developed this cute robot."
You may be able to make Hana-chan faint with your smelly feet, but it can have the same effect on budget-conscious people. NextTechnology plans to start selling the feet-smelling robot dog next May.
8. Under what condition will Hana-chan bark?
A. When its nose is fixed with a sensor. B. When it detects mildly smelly feet.
C. When it wags its tail. D. When something is wrong with its nose.
9. Why is foot odor paid great attention to in Japan?
A. Because Japanese have strong bodily odors.
B. Because its tech industry is highly developed.
C. Because Japanese are especially considerate of others.
D. Because Japanese are usually barefooted at others' home.
10.What can be inferred about Hana-chan from the text?
A. Its idea comes from Kimika Tsuji. B. It's already available in the market.
C. It can recognize foot odor quickly. D. It has a built-in air freshener sprayer.
11. What does the underlined part in the last paragraph imply?
A. Hana-chan is no cheap thing. B. People should mind their smelly feet.
C. People should be careful about their budget. D. Hana-chan makes people loosen their budget.
D
To the untrained eye, handwriting styles may seem random. Some write big; others prefer small; and still others tend toward the unreadable. But a new study shows that your handwriting actually says more about you than you thought.
Professor Sarah Rosenblum has been studying cognitive(认知) theory as it relates to handwriting for years. Researchers have already developed a computerized system that measures and analyzes even the smallest details of a person's handwriting, such as the space between the letters and the amount of pressure we apply when writing. Using this system, she discovered
changes in handwriting can indicate when we are lying and even whether someone is in the early stages of Parkinson's disease.
Now, Rosenblum, with other researchers, is examining whether changes in handwriting can be used to identify moods (情绪).
Researchers broke up study participants into three groups. Each group underwent an activity that put the participants in a different mood—positive, passive, and neutral(中立的), by viewing appropriate movies. After that, the participants were instructed to write a paragraph.
After studying the participants' paragraphs, the different moods of each group were evident in characteristics like letter shape and size. For example, the height of the letters written by people in a negative(消极的) mood was significantly lower than that of the positive or neutral groups. Also, participants in a negative mood showed quicker writing and narrower width of letters than those in a positive mood.
But why? The researchers explain that it is probably the negative mood that creates a cognitive burden on the brain, leading in turn to changes in handwriting.
"The findings of the study may help doctors identify their patient's actual mood," Rosenblum said. "In the future, we will try to examine whether we can also measure the level of the mood, i. e. how happy or sad someone is."
So watch out: if you're happy, you know it. Your handwriting will, too.
12. What can be learned through a person's handwriting?
A. The pressure he is facing. B. The lies he is telling.
C. The language he is speaking. D. A certain disease he might have.
13. How were participants put into different moods during the study?
A. By reading moving stories. B. By writing a paragraph.
C. By watching certain films. D. By listening to programmes.
14. What indicates a person is very happy?
A. He writes small letters. B. He writes wide letters.
C. He writes casually. D. He writes short letters.
15. What is Rosenblum studying?
A. How handwriting affects a person's mood.
B. How mood is classified by types of handwriting.
C. How a person's mood is reflected in handwriting.
D. How doctors use handwriting to understand patients' mood.

短文改错
答案:
Today my parents and I decided to go to the field to pick some wild . We started out early in the morning. my parents, I walked behind happily. Soon we arrived at a small river. Though it was not wide, we had no way of to cross it. Dad watched for a while then he had an idea. Soon three set up a simple bridge with some stones together. And then we crossed river easily. Finally, we reached the top of the hill, there were many wild plants fit eat. At dusk, we were exhausted to walk further. Luckily, our neighbor by and picked us up.
解析:
1. vegetable改为vegetables,考查名词的数,vegetable为可数名词,前面有some,所以用复数名词,所以vegetable改为vegetables.
2. Followed改为Following,考查现在分词,句子主语和follow之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词做状语,所以Followed改为Following.
3. 去掉of,考查固定搭配,the way to do sth做某事的方法,所以去掉of.
4. or改为and,考查连词,根据句意"爸爸看了一会儿,然后他有了一个主意",可知前后是并列关系,所以用or改为and.
5. they改为we,考查人称代词,指我们三个,所以用we做主语,所以用they改为we.
6. a改为the,考查冠词,特指前面提到的river,所以用定冠词the,所以a 改为the.
7. when改为where,考查非限制性定语从句,先行词为地点名词,在非限制性定语从句中作地点状语,所以用where引导,所以when改为where.
8. fit后面加to.考查固定搭配.根据固定搭配be fit to do sth适合做某事,可知用fit to eat作后置定语,所以fit后面加to.
9. so改为too,考查固定搭配,too…to…太…以致于不能…,所以so改为too.
10. drive改为drove,考查时态,描述过去的事情,所以用一般过去时态,所以drive改为drove.

Dear Helen,
Having learnt that a China-Canada cultural festival is to be held in the auditorium next Friday, I can’t wait to invite you to the festival and here is a brief introduction.

A gala is arranged in the afternoon, so could you bring us a performance, which is bound to brighten the festival?
I’d be very glad if you could make it.
Yours,
