Tourists are strongly advised to consult an etiquette(礼仪) guide before visiting Thailand’s honored temple. The list of taboos is very long and the country’s ruling group is strict- do not turn your back on a Buddha statue, the Bangkok Post cautions. Don’t wear sleeveless tops to the temples, or show your knees. Remove shoes when tour the Wat Pho Royal Monastery. Last week Joseph and Travis Dasilvas from California were in Bangkok where they encountered the Temple of Dawn.They took “butt photos” there and posted them in Instagram. “They didn’t know it was a temple.” the house sitter told NBC “ It is just like a building” Most of Thailand didn’t see it the way. Certainly not Sudarat Wajanasiri, who shared the Dasilvas’ photo on Facebook over the weekend, adding” I got no words to rip them” A commenter attempted to figure out what drove two men to moon a holy site, discovering that traveling butt photos are something of a cultural tradition in west countries that the Americans may not have meant to offend. Thai immigration officials put the men on a watch list after seeing the photo, according to BBC. The “Travelling Butts” account was deleted from Instagram. Police prevented both men at a Bangkok airport on Tuesday from leaving the country, BBC reported. They face a ＄150 fine and punishment of never coming to Thailand. But a police had accused them, which could put them in jail for up to five years, A commissioner(行政长官) told San Diego Gay &Lesibian News that she had reached out to the U.S government to help the men, who could not be reached by the Washington Post. Their house sitter, told NBC7 that they were trying to find a lawyer in Thailand, and no idea if or when the Traveling Butts would come here. 1.What does the underlined word “taboos” probably means?

What’s next after the smartphone? Humans can play tricks today that magicians couldn’t have imagined 50 years ago. Armed with only a tiny device today, our smartphone allows us to access a lifetime’s worth of information, connect with anyone in real time even if they are miles away. But the most astonishing part of this technological “magic” is the speed at which new opportunities and experiences are coming out. For generations, we have seen the inevitable connection between humans and technology as advancements are applied to serve us and improve our quality of life. And the rate of technological progress is doubling every year. Twenty years ago, who would have thought that we would be walking with robots and cyborgs (半人半机器的生物)? With the development of technology, we humans are accepting digital technologies to improve and expand our senses and abilities. Take Moon Ribs and Neil Harbison for example. They are both cyborgs, with Ribs having a chip put into her arm so she can feel earthquakes all around the world in real time and Harbison, who is color blind, has an antenna (天线) put into his head to allow him to be aware of visible and invisible colors via sound waves. This is only the beginning. As we continue to spend more time with machines, the more they will become embedded (嵌入) in our lives. Technology already feels like it has a mind of its own, and over the next two decades, this will become even more pronounced. Machines will eventually become as intelligent as us, and, while today they may just live in our pockets, tomorrow they could be in our blood stream and our minds, linking us to the cloud. And as this gap separating humans and machines continues to close, we will reach a point where they can be hardly identified. Technology and humanity will fuse (融合) together some day in the near future. 1.The first paragraph of the passage is intended to tell readers _____. A.smartphone brings us convenience and lifetime’s worth of information B.the magical and powerful functions of smartphone C.the most astonishing technological magic of smartphone D.new opportunities and experiences are approaching at a high speed 2.The writer of this passage takes Moon Ribas and Neil Harbisson for example to _____. A.make a comparison between the two of them B.introduce the founders of the Cyborg Foundation C.prove they are much more intelligent than human beings D.show that machines has become embedded in human lives 3.Neil Harbison is a cyborg that can _____. A.help human to create other cyborgs B.sense colours by using sound waves C.see both visible and invisible colours D.feel earthquakes all around the world 4.What is the main idea of this passage? A.The new technologies related to smartphone in the near future. B.Machines will eventually become as intelligent as human beings. C.The future tendency that technology and humanity will fuse together. D.We are reaching a point where we can’t tell technologies and machines apart.

I was looking out the window that summer afternoon. It was as if the trees were inviting me to join in their impromptu(即兴的) dances as they played hide and seek in the misty fog. A strange stillness surrounded me as I sat in the hotel hall, waiting for the taxi to take me to the music camp site. I had flown for sixteen hours to attend a music camp in Michigan for three weeks. Excited more than I was nervous, I felt ready for new meetings. A week passed like a breeze, and my cello(大提琴) notes were becoming sweeter. I took a break to the school shop with another Chinese friend. As I picked out my newfound favorite American candy bar, I noticed my friend chatting with another Chinese girl. I soon joined in with natural ease, and discovered that we were the only other Asians at the camp. It felt like a good chance that our friendship was formed forever. During the orchestra rehearsals(排演), Mr. Lastrapes, a genius at discovering the slightest off-key note(走音的音符), persuaded me to relax my tightened arms with his soft voice and gentle manners, thereby allowing me to release notes that I could never create before. We continued to have two hours of rehearsals every day in a large hall that could hold 4,000 people. What we had instead was an audience of ducks and geese outside that swam so freely and happily to our melody(曲调). How an unusual experience I had! All things, good or bad, must come to an end, when I waited to board the plane, I was looking out the airport window, thinking back at the heartfelt moment of farewell with my friend, Caroline, at the camp gates. We had promised to meet again, but how and when, she was returning to Kentucky, and I, to China. The cello strings were not long or tight enough to keep us connected. 1.How did the author feel when waiting in the hotel hall? A.He felt excited to find out the great fun in nature. B.He felt eager to have some unexpected meetings. C.He felt worried about whether he would perform well. D.He felt tired after flying a long journey to the music camp. 2.From para2 we know that ___________ A.the author was happy to find out his favorite snack. B.the author felt good to have friends to accompany. C.the author was lucky to make some lifelong friends. D.the author found it easy to communicate with Asians. 3.Why did the author mention the ducks and geese? A.He wanted to live a free and happy life like them. B.He wanted to show he was relaxed and enjoyed the process. C.He wanted to prove inspiration comes from daily life. D.He wanted to show their music reached a wide audience. 4.What can we infer from the last paragraph? A.They found it hard to say good-bye to each other. B.They were not sure music could connect each other. C.They knew maybe they are unlikely to see each other again. D.They hugged each other without words at the camp gate.

Stop Complaining We are instructed not to use any dirty words or polluting language. 1.But I have learned that complaining pollute our lives at one time. 2.How quick are we to become impatient and begin to complain when stuck in traffic or while waiting in checkout narrow roads in grocery stores or department stores? How quick are we to spot and point out all the faults of our friends or family members? The influence of excessive(过度的)complaining. Complaining can make you feel pretty down, for example. There is just so much that's wrong, everywhere, and no matter how much you complain, it just isn't possible to get it all put right. Plain and simple complaining is a behaviour that people disapprove of or consider morally wrong! 3. Complaining can become a habit. When you made your first complaints, you carefully chose what to protest about, and to whom, and how, in order to get very specific results. 4. You have an “auto-complainer” that comes out with your criticisms to whoever is listening. The best antidote(矫正方法) for complaining is thanksgiving.5. They are too busy being grateful for all the good things they have that they have no time to notice the things they could complain about. And also remember that it is no use complaining without taking any actions. A. But you probably no longer do that. B. Don’t get discouraged when you fail. C. Truly thankful people do not complain. D. I didn’t realize that this included complaining. E. We need to ask ourselves something like these. F. When you really want to stop complaining all the time. G. It causes many people a great deal of problems in their lives and destroys the joy of anyone listening.

I learned this from one of my experience. I was not chosen as member of the volleyball team of our school. Because of this, I decided to give up play volleyball. Lucky, my best friend stopped me and pointed out that it was my laziness and poor preparation which led to my failure. After that, I practiced playing volleyball on every day. When another tryout arrived, I was fully preparing and tried my best. As a result, I was selected but became an important player on our school team. From this, I am firmly convinced that we are able to seize a chance as long as I get well prepared
