Every November， Time magazine picks out what it calls “The 25 Best Inventions” of the year. These are the things that have made our lives different in one way or another. Here， we have chosen three of the most interesting ones on the list.

Ember Mug

Its hard to always keep coffee at the right temperature， especially in winter. Its too hot to drink at first， but before we know it， it gets too cold and loses all its taste. According to Time， the perfect level of warmth for a cup of coffee only lasts for 37 seconds， which makes the Ember Mug a great invention. It keeps your coffee at a certain temperature， anywhere between 48℃ and 62℃， once you set it through a smartphone app.

Tasty One Top

TV cooking shows make it look so easy， but its almost impossible to get the recipes （食譜） to cook the same as how the cooks make them. However， the Tasty One Top DIY cooking companion is here to help. Developed by Buzzfeed， the cooker can be connected to a smartphone app， which has more than 1，700 recipes and videos. You choose a recipe and the app will let the cooker know what to do. Fox example， itll tell you when to turn your steak or when to add certain ingredients.

Jibo

Different from faceless smart speakers like Xiaomi and Amazon， Jibo has brought smart technology to life.

One of the most popular literary figures in American literature is a woman who spent almost half of her long life in China， a country on a continent thousands of miles from the United States. In her lifetime she got this countrys most honored literary award， the Pulitzer Prize， and also the most prestigious （有聲望的） form of literary recognition in the world， the Nobel Prize for literature.

Pearl Buck was almost a household word throughout much of her lifetime because of her literary output， which consisted of some eighty-five published works， including several dozen novels， six collections of short stories， fourteen books for children， and more than a dozen works of non-fiction.

When she was eighty years old， some twenty-five books were awaiting publication. Many of those books were set in China， the land in which she spent so much of her life. Her books and her life served as a bridge between the cultures of the East and the West.

Her background as the product of those two cultures made her into an unusually interesting and versatile （多才多藝的） human being. As we examine the life of Pearl Buck， we cannot help but realize that we are in fact meeting three different people： a wife and mother， an internationally famous writer， and a humanitarian （人道主義者）. One cannot really get to know Pearl Buck without learning about each of the three. Though honored in her lifetime with the William Dean Howell Medal of the American Academy of Arts and Letters in addition to the Nobel and Pulitzer Prize， Pearl Buck as a total human being， not only a famous author， is a fascinating subject of study.

5. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 suggest about Pearl Buck？

A. She was well known.

B. She was a poor woman.

C. She used to be a housewife.

D. She was good at housework.

6. Pearl Buck is known as a writer of ___ .

C. b; c; d; e D. a; b; c; e

7. Why is Pearl Buck regarded as an unusual woman in American literature？

A. She published half of her books abroad.

B. She achieved her first success very late in life.

C. She wrote extensively about a very different culture.

D. She won more awards than any other woman of her time.

8. What is the authors main purpose of writing the passage？

A. To introduce Pearl Buck to readers.

B. To show Pearl Bucks views on Chinese literature.

C. To offer information about the works of Pearl Buck.

D. To discuss Pearl Bucks influence on the cultures of the East and the West.

J. K. Rowling frequently shows there is magic every day. Her Harry Potter series has helped people through times of stress and depression （抑郁） and she is always there to deliver wise words of encouragement.

She is one celebrity who is very active on Twitter. So when a single dad named Matt Burke sent her a message thanking her for the series， she noticed. Her series had helped strengthen his relationship with his 9-year-old daughter Bailey.

He included a link to his article titled Being a Broke Parent. He explained how he hadnt found a level of financial stability that allowed him to pay bills on time and take his daughter on more activities and events. The family also doesnt have the Internet or TV， which means theres no “digital babysitter”， and he has to rely on his own creative ways to bond with his daughter. Since he received the series， the main thing that has occupied them these days is reading books together.

Burke admits that he thought he was “too cool” for the books when they first came out and he was in his twenties， but hes loving reading them now. “We switch off chapter by chapter reading them out loud，” Burke explains. “This not only allows her to get more used to reading aloud in front of someone， but it gets me directly involved in something she loves， and it gives me the chance to be very dramatic when I read my chapters and bring myself into the characters in the book， which has proven to be a ton of fun.”

After hearing Burkes story， Rowling said how honored she was when Harry Potter was a part of his familys life and offered Burke more signed books. Besides， people are also offering to send Burke more books as gifts. For Burke， this experience， far more than gifts， will be what he treasures.

1. Why did Burke thank J. K. Rowling according to the text？

A. She guided him how to write a good story.

B. She encouraged him when he was in trouble.

C. Her books helped him in time of difficulty.

D. Her books helped him improve his bond with his daughter.

2. What is implied in Burkes words in Paragraph 4？

A. He has found it interesting to read the series.

B. He was too old to understand the series better.

C. He has chosen a better way of reading the series.

D. He hopes to play a role in the drama in the future.

3. Which word can best describe Burkes experience according to the text？

A. Special. B. Normal. C. Valuable. D. Funny.

4. What does the text mainly tell us about J. K. Rowling？

A. She chooses to help improve kids health.

B. She gives a magical gift to a single father.

C. She has a deep influence on others growth.

D. She is well-known through her series.

Have you ever wondered why birds sing？ Maybe you thought that they were just happy. ?After all， you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.

Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However， they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.

Do you know what a “territory” is？ A territory is an area that one person， group， animal， etc. considers as their own and defends against others who try to enter it. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same kind are welcome. Your garden and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you， you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.

If so， you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time， especially at nesting （筑巢） season. So he is screaming all the time， whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a birds song， and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.

Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.

You can see that birds have a language of their own. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.

5. Some scientists believe that most of the time birds singing is actually ___ .

A. a way of warning B. an expression of happiness

C. an expression of anger D. a way of greeting

6. What is a birds “territory”？

A. A place where families of other kinds are not accepted.

B. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.

7. Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season？

A. To invite more friends.

B. To find outsiders around.

C. To reduce their fears.

D. To frighten outsiders away.

8. How does the author mainly develop the writing？

A. By comparing birds with human beings.

B. By reporting experiment results.

C. By describing birds daily life.

D. By telling a birds story.

Kong Zi， also called Confucius （551 BC—479 BC， and Socrates （469 BC—399 BC） lived only a hundred years apart， and during their lifetimes there was no contact between China and Greece， but it is interesting to look at how the world that each of these great philosophers came from shaped their ideas， and how these ideas in turn， shaped their societies.

Neither philosopher lived in times of peace， though there were more wars in Greece than in China. The Chinese states were very large and feudal （封建的）， while the Greek city-states were small and urban. The urban environment in which Socrates lived allowed him to be more radical （激進的） than Confucius. Unlike Confucius， Socrates was not asked by rules how to govern effectively. Thus， Socrates was able to be more idealistic， focusing on topics like freedom， and knowledge for its own sake. Confucius， on the other hand， advised those in government service， and many of his students go out to government service.

Confucius suggested the Golden Rule as a principle for the conduct of life： “Do not do to others what you would not want others to do to you.” He believed that all men were equal at birth， though some had more potential than others， and that it was knowledge that set men apart. Socrates focused on the individual， and thought that the greatest purpose of man was to find wisdom. Like Confucius， he believed that the superior class should rule the inferior （下層的） classes.

For Socrates， the family was of no importance， and the community of little importance. For Confucius， however， the family was the center of the society， with family relations considered much more important than political relations.

Both men are respected much more today than they were in their lifetimes.

1. What can we learn from Paragraph 1？

A. Socrates and Confucius had much in common.

B. Confucius had much influence on Socrates ideas.

C. The societies were influenced by the philosophers ideas.

D. There were cultural exchanges between China and Greece.

2. Socrates shared with Confucius the idea that ___ .

A. all men were equal when they were born

B. the lower classes should be ruled by the upper class

C. the purpose of man was to find freedom and wisdom

D. people should not ask others to do what they did not want to

3. What makes the difference between people according to Confucius？

A. Family. B. Potential.

C. Knowledge. D. Community.

4. How does the author organize this text？

A. By reasoning.

B. By comparing.

C. By giving cause and effect.

D. By giving time and events.
