Each online course will be personalized by her interests and molded into bite-sized lessons so she can easily learn at her own pace.It's a great budget-friendly option for diving into a new language.We tested it and found it to be a fun and effective language learning tool.

When it comes to the best digital meat thermometers,it doesn't get better than Thermo- Works.We highly recommend the Thermapen ONE,which was the fastest and most accurate thermometer we tested and would have been our top pick if it wasn't so expensive.But it's waterproof,precise and fast-acting.

2.Today,we study literature from a young age—learning about our histories,faraway worlds and influential people.Whether we notice or not,these stories—both fiction and non-fiction—guide us throughout our lives.They allow us to see the world through another's eyes,open up our world and teach us about every subject known to man.
Despite their importance,many people throw out their old books—wasting the wisdom that lies on each page.In an effort to save this knowledge and share it with those less fortunate,a garbage man in Bogota,Colombia has been saving thrown-away books for 20 years and sharing them with those in need.
"I hated to see all the books in the dustbins of wealthier neighborhoods.So I started to rescue them," said Gutierrez.The first book he found was a copy of the classic novel Anna Karenina.The Tolstoy book was later joined by The Little Prince,Sophie's World,The Iliad and a number of novels.Today,he has collected around 25,000 books.
His growing collection didn't go unnoticed.Gutierrez's neighbors were soon borrowing the books to help with their children's homework. "There was a lack of them in our neighborhood,so we started to help,"said Gutierrez.
The ground floor of Gutierrez's home is now filled with books,from floor to ceiling.Overspilling with books,he opened it up as a free library,with the help of his wife Luz Gutierrez and their three children.
Word eventually spread around about Gutierrez and his books.Most of the books now come from donations.He now travels around the country,delivering free books to poor and remote districts.The library,named "The Strength of Words,"has donated books to some 235 schools,institutions and community libraries across Colombia.
(1)How does the author introduce the topic of the text?
A.By stating some facts.
B.By contradicting a theory.
C.By describing a scene.
D.By referring to documents.
(2)What did the Tolstoy book mean to Gutierrez?
A.A heavy financial burden.
B.A companion in difficult times.
C.One of his greatest achievements.
D.The beginning of his charity campaign.
(3)Which saying does Gutierrez's story prove?
A.A good book is a light to the soul.
B.A bad beginning makes a bad ending.
C.Actions speak louder than words.
D.One man's trash is another man's treasure.
(4)What's the best title for the text?
A.Tolstoy books recovered from dustbins.
B.Literature now appeals to garbage collectors.
C.Free libraries popular with neighborhood kids.
D.Garbage man builds a library from rescued books.組卷:5引用:1難度:0.5 -
3.Emma Rao spent almost three years on the'996 schedule':working from nine in the morning to nine in the evening,six days a week.Rao,who is originally from Nanjing,moved to financial hub Shanghai about five years ago to work for a multinational pharmaceutical company.The job quickly took over her life. "I was pretty depressed,"she says. "I was deprived of all my personal life." After her shift,which sometimes included overtime,she had a small window to eat,shower and go to bed - but she sacrificed sleep to squeeze out some personal time.Often,Rao would stay up surfing the internet,reading the news and watching online videos until well after midnight.
Rao was doing what the Chinese have called'bàofùxìng áoyè'- or'revenge(報復(fù))bedtime procrastination(拖延)'.The phrase,which could also be translated as 'retaliatory staying up late',spread rapidly on Twitter in June after a post by journalist Daphne K Lee.She described the phenomenon as when "people who don't have much control over their daytime life refuse to sleep early in order to regain some sense of freedom during late-night hours."
Her post clearly struck a chord.In a reply 'liked' more than 4,500 times,Twitter user Kenneth Kwok tweeted:"Typical 8 to 8 in office,by the time I arrive home after dinner and shower it's 10 p.m.,probably won't just go to sleep and repeat the same routine.A few hours of 'own time' is necessary to survive."
It's not clear exactly where this term came from.The earliest mention this reporter found was in a blog post dated November 2018,although its origins likely predate this.The post's author — a man from Guangdong province - wrote that during the workday he "belonged to someone else," and that he could only "find himself" when he got home and could lie down.This revenge bedtime
procrastination was sad,he wrote,because his health suffered,but it was also "great" because he got a bit of freedom.
The phrase might have been popularised in China,but the phenomenon it describes is likely widespread,with overstretched workers all over the world putting off bedtime to claim some precious personal time - even though they know it's not good for them.
(1)What was a cause of Emma Rao's depression?
A.Her new location.
B.The demands of her job.
C.Staying up late.
D.The fast pace of her life.
(2)What does the underlined word'window' mean in the first paragraph?
A.A part of her house.
B.A place.
C.A period of time.
D.A decision.
(3)According to Daphne Lee,what is the main reason for'bàofùxìng áoyè'?
A.The popularity of electronic products.
B.A lack of willpower.
C.A desire for change.
D.A loss of freedom.
(4)Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A.How to get a better sleep.
B.Dealing with the pressure of work.
C.Staying up late to gain control.
D.The reasons for poor sleep.組卷:4引用:1難度:0.6

9."See you at Open House(學(xué)校開放日) tonight,Amy," Evelyn shouted from the school bus window. "Don't forget to ask your mom if I can come over tomorrow!" "OK!" I called back.I wished I could feel excited about my first Open House at my new school,but I was worried.What would other kids say when they found out my parents can't hear?
And I wanted Evelyn to visit,but then she'd see how different my house was.My parents use a video phone so they can use sign language to communicate with callers.We also have a light on the wall that flashes when the phone or doorbell rings.Would Evelyn think my house was strange?
That night,Dad drove us to the brightly lit school.We stopped in front of the bulletin board in the hall. "Look at Amy's picture!" Mom said,too loud!She does that when she's excited,because she can't hear herself.Some older kids turned to stare at us and I wanted to hide.
I led my family into my classroom and looked around.Evelyn was not there yet.Ms.Jennings walked over to us.I introduced her to my family and explained that my parents are deaf. "Oh," she said. "Well,how do you say welcome in sign language?" "Like this. " I swept my open right hand in toward my body,palm up.She repeated the motion. "Thank you," Mom said,smiling. "Nice to meet you. " Ms.Jennings looked surprised. "You speak very well, "she said.In sign language,I repeated what Ms.Jennings had said in case my parents hadn't read her lips.
"Was it difficult teaching Amy to talk?" Ms.Jennings asked. "Not really, " Dad said in sign language,and I translated so Ms.Jennings understood. "She went to daycare with other hearing kids. "
Some of my classmates were watching us and whispering.Then I noticed Evelyn and her mom standing by the door. "Hi,Amy, "Evelyn waved to me and approached us. "I didn't know your parents are deaf. "
注意:
1.所續(xù)寫短文詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右;
