Four students at the University of Hefei, in eastern China, recently proved that you don’t have to spend a small fortune on a designer dress to look attractive. You can make it yourself, for free, using only plant leaves. Photos of the leaf dress have been posted on social media for about a week, and people still can't stop gushing (交口称赞) over them. The team behind the unique dress ---two girls and two boys--- got the idea for it over six months ago, while trying to come up with an interesting project for the annual “Animal and Plant Specimen Contest” at the University of Hefei. During that time, the girls couldn't stop talking about how beautiful the dress worn by actress Zhang ziyi at the Cannes Festival looked, and one of them suggested they try to recreate it out of plant leaves. They asked for their teacher’s advice, and even though he considered it difficult to succeed, they went with it anyway. After researching the best way to use plant leaves as fabric (衣料), and coming up with a design for their dress, they started collecting the leaves. Some species were readily available on campus, but others were not. So they had to travel to Tianzhu Mountain to collect them. To ensure that the collected leaves didn’t shrivel orrot (枯萎或腐烂), they removed the flesh by boiling them in alkali and sodium carbonate solution (碱和碳酸钠溶液) for about two hours. They struggled to get the proportions of alkali and sodium carbonate and the boiling time just right, to ensure that the flesh could be easily removed without damaging the skeleton of the leaf. Through trial and error, and with their teacher’s guidance they were able to come up with a perfect formula (配方). They could only work on their special dress after class and on weekends, so it took them nearly four months to complete. That’s a pretty long time, but it all paid off when one of the girls got to finally put on the leaf dress and show it off to everyone. 1.What's the best title for the passage? A. Chinese students make a great achievement in science. B. Chinese students make a nice dress for fashion. C. Chinese students make a nice dress from leaves. D. Chinese students make a nice dress with less money. 2.What can we know about the work created by the four students? A. It is popular with users of social media. B. They got the inspiration for it from their teacher. C. Actress Zhang Ziyi gave them a lot of guidance on designing. D. The annual “Animal and Plant Specimen Contest” required them to design it. 3.In order to complete their work, the four students ________. A. persuaded their teacher to join them in collecting leaves B. gave up the opportunity of attending the colleges annual contest C. spent much of their school time in researching D. collected leaves both on campus and on mountains 4.What can be inferred from the fourth paragraph? A. It was hard for the four students to get the perfect formula. B. The four students finally succeeded through their own efforts. C. The four students’ work was mainly made of the plant leaves’ flesh. D. The four students boiled the shriveled and rotten leaves to remove their flesh. 5.Which of the following words can best describe the four students? A. Strong-willed but conservative. B. Creative and determined. C. Warm-hearted and ambitious. D. Fortunate and helpful.

Many of us have had recurring (反复出现的) and disturbing nightmares that are difficult to understand. Now, research has discovered these dreams are a reflection of our daily struggles. In particular, feelings of lacking independence in competence or being misunderstood can touch off nightmares, scientists say. These feelings suggest that a person’s basic psychological needs are not being met, and nightmares occur when we haven't processed these emotions properly. A number of recurring themes, which may include being trapped, chased or attacked, or failing in an important task, seem to appear during disturbing dreams. In their latest study on nightmares, Cardiff University found a recurring dream about falling from a height could mean someone feels frustrated in their daily lives. “We found that people whose recurring dreams were felt to have more negative emotions in them also felt more incompetent, isolated, or pressured by others in their daily life,” Dr Netta Weinstein told "MailOnline". Dr Weinstein said that finding help for challenges could help to alleviate(减轻) recurring dreams. Dr Weinstein said that recurring dreams in which people experience failure were also common among those who frequently felt frustrated. Research has previously shown that those who feel under pressure in real life are more likely to experience a dream in which they are unprepared for something important like an exam or a meeting. “My typical stress dream was about the whole classroom getting out of control. I would be feeling powerless or helpless to manage a situation,” Margaret Bowater, president of the Dream Network Aotearoa New Zealand told "Stuff”. Those who feel trapped in their dreams likely feel trapped in real life, Ms Bowater told “Stuff”. “A dream is trying to show, or repeat something back to you,” she said. “It's usually using concrete imagery for something that is not necessarily a concrete thing to say.” Dr Weinstein said frequently being attacked in your dreams may show you are frustrated in your day to day activities. According to UK dream expert Ian Wallace, being chased or attacked is the most common dream from all around the world. Being chased by an animal indicates there is an instinctive impulse (本能冲动) that you are finding hard to control in waking life. In Dr Weinstein’s new study, she found that people who are frustrated with their lives have dreams with more negative themes that made them frightened, angry or sad. When asked to describe their own dreams, they tended to do so using more negative words, while participants whose psychological needs were met were more likely to describe their dreams positively 1.What is the meaning of the underlined phrase “touch off”? A. End. B. Cause. C. Escape from. D. Turn into. 2.How can a person avoid dreaming about falling from a height according to Dr. Weinstein? A. By not climbing high buildings any more. B. By always doing things independently. C. By escaping his daily challenges. D. By turning to others when in trouble. 3.If people feel frustrated in their real life, they may dream about the following EXCEPT that ________. A. someone is attacking them B. they fall from a high place C. they are not ready to go for an interview D. they are not successful in achieving something 4.What can we know from Netta Weinsteir's words? A. People who always have same dreams are negative. B. People who have nightmares always lose control of their life. C. People who frequently have dreams with negative emotions may suffer greatly in their real life. D. People are more likely to have nightmares when they can’t control their feelings in their real life. 5.What can be concluded from the last two paragraphs? A. It is hard for people to avoid having nightmares. B. People are unwilling to share their nightmares with others. C. Most people’s dreams are about them being chased or attacked by animals. D. People whose psychological needs aren't met tend to explain their dreams negatively.

The most typical definition of success is “the accomplishment of an aim or purpose” or what most of us have heard: the attainment of popularity or profit. But is success really defined by purposes or profit? After graduating from high school, my family advised me to aim to build a successful career. My options were narrowed down to becoming a doctor or choosing a field in engineering. So I graduated with a chemical engineering degree. I was advised to aim for graduate (研究生的) studies, and in less than two years, I had a highly specialized degree in plastics engineering from one of the most reputable universities in the U.S. Then I found a corporate job, performed well in the organization, climbed up the ladder (晋升的阶梯) and made a bigger paycheque with every new title. My proud parents told my story to the rest of the family and friends as a “success” story. No matter where we live in the world, we all have our own versions of success. Our families take pride in telling the world how successful we are in our profession, and often the only measure of that success becomes the financial wealth we accumulate. In a world where everything is reflected by numbers—the likes on Facebook, the number of views on You Tube, etc—every aspect of our life is being taken over by numbers. We are conditioned to believe that the stronger your financial standing, the higher you rank on the success chart. But remember the words “aim” or “purpose,” in the definition of success. Altruistic figures such as Mother Teresa, Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. also lived successful lives but had selfless concern over the well-being of others. While the rest of the world focused on accumulating wealth, they focused on giving, doing, and creating for everyone else. Wealth alone never will be the measure of success. Think beyond profits. No promotion I ever received in my professional career was because of my deep desire to obtain a better title or higher pay; instead, it was based on the excellence I created in the experience our customers had with the organization. 1.What do you know about the author? A. He has lived up to his family’s expectations. B. He asks his parents for advice on everything. C. He doesn’t like his job though he is well paid. D. He wanted to be a doctor but became a chemical engineer. 2.What's the common awareness around the world? A. Social connections. B. Contributions to society. C. The accumulation of financial wealth. D. The accomplishment of personal dreams. 3.What does the underlined word “Altruistic” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Of abundant wealth. B. Of few achievements. C. Devoted to others’ welfare. D. Focused on personal well-being. 4.What inspiration can be drawn from the author's working experience? A. Change jobs frequently for higher pay. B. Aim at providing quality service at work. C. Take every chance to get promotion. D. Focus on making profits from the customers. 5.What's the author’s purpose in writing this passage? A. To explore the true meaning of success. B. To express his inner voice to his parents. C. To acknowledge the help he has received in his life. D. To share his personal experience for others’ reference.

British bee keeper and musician Bioni Samp has found an unbelievable way to combine his two greatest passions. He records the frequencies of his bees and uses them to create original electronic musical compositions. Bioni -- not his real name--- produces abstract music that is rhythmic and suitable for dancing to, but the Londoner has a higher goal than making people dance to it on the dance floor. He uses his unusual music to disseminate information and raise awareness about colony collapse disorder(CCD). Billions of bees are killed by CCD every year, and that’ s not counting the ones that die as a result of climate change and pesticide(杀虫剂) poisoning. He feels that by using bees as a musical instrument he can get through to people more easily than by preaching (说教) to them about the bad situation of bees and the dangers their extinction brings to humans. "If I go around shouting about deforestation(采伐森林)， people quickly tire of that；it doesn't really connect with people, " Samp said. "So I worked around the idea of presenting something that has an underlying (潜在的) ecological message. It turned out that the message was successfully communicated in a way which interested people who love electronic music and computing.” Originally from West Yorkshire, Bioni Samp has been enthusiastic about keeping bees since early childhood, but some years ago he discovered that bees were useful not just for producing honey, but also making electronic music. Samp’s bee-generated music has been featured environmentally-conscious festivals and art galleries throughout Europe, and even in Canada. Bioni Samp was featured in the 360o BBC mini-documentary, “The Resistance of Honey", which the Raindance Film Festival nominated for Best VR Sound Design Experience. Some film festivals rejected the documentary for some reason. Instead of focusing on the negative, however, Samp is carrying on with his work. He is almost done with a new album. 1.What are the two greatest passions of Bieni Samp?(no more than 5 words) _______________ 2.What's the meaning of the underlined word in Para. 2? (1 word) _______________ 3.What are threatening the survival of bees according to the passage?(no more than 10 words) _______________ 4.How is the way that Bioni Samp used to communicate an ecological message?(no more than 5 words ) _______________ 5.What do you think of Bioni Samp? Please explain. (no more than 20 words) _______________
