Today I will share a true story about an overseas student1.studied in Germany.
After years of hard work, this student graduated with2.(amaze) achievements. Everyone was sure that he was going to get a good job3.(easy) and have a bright future. But to his surprise, he was not even given the chance for4.interview! It was the third time that he5.(refuse), he couldn’t help6.(telephone) the company to ask why they didn’t want him. The answer was simple. “We don’t offer jobs to dishonest people in Germany.”
You might wonder what was wrong. The truth is, shortly after he7.(arrive) in Germany, this clever student found that8.was easy to skip(逃票) buying subway tickets in this country. So in order to save money, he often went in the subway without a ticket. As a result, he had been caught without a ticket many times.
From this story, we learn that we may get short-term benefits(好处)in dishonest ways, 9.the truth will come out sooner or later and the cost is high. So remember that10.(honest) may lead to failure. We must be honest. It is a rule.

Birth order plays a vital role in deciding the characteristics of a child. And when it comes to the middle child, it certainly plays a huge role. The middle children go through some things only they can understand. 1.
Mostly, middle children have to share a room. 2. They need to share a room with an elder one because they're too young to sleep alone. And just when they think they'll finally have a room of their own, a voice is heard saying, “Dear, please share the room with your younger one, as he's too small to sleep alone.”
Middle children tend to share clothes with their siblings (兄弟姐妹). Their cupboard is full of handmedowns from their older sibling, and they need to wear his clothes. 3. They can always show off their elder sibling's clothes and things at school. Also, they get to pass their own clothes to their younger sibling.
4. They're liked by both, because they can relate well to both generations. On one hand they can recall how much fun it was watching Garfield and Friends, and on the other hand they can talk about the latest video game released in the market.
Siblings' talking is one interesting thing about a middle child. They are not as boring as they appear.5. Also, thanks to the divided attention at home, middle children are independent and need not rely on anyone.
A.Instead, they are very artistic and creative.
B.But this comes with its own advantage too.
C.Here are some things a middle child can relate to.
D.They rarely enjoy the experience of having their own room.
E.And the dream of having their own room is completely destroyed.
F.They're the problem solvers between their older and younger siblings.
G.As a middle kid, they are the bridge between their younger and older siblings.
A new phone app uses shaking from smartphones to warn people about earthquakes. The new app is called MyShake, which is the work of four researchers at the University of California. Berkeley.
Smartphones are equipped with accelerometers(加速器). MyShake uses phone accelerometers to measure seismic (地震的) activity. It has been programmed to know the difference between normal activity and earthquake movement. The software developers say their app is right 93 percent of the time. A smartphone sends seismic information to the app developers. If the developers receive several warnings from one area, it recognizes that an earthquake may be taking place or will take place soon. Using information sent from the app, the network then judges the location and strength of the quake in real time. MyShake can record 5.0 earthquake at distances of 10 kilometers or less.
MyShake uses very little power, according to its developers. Only when seismic activity is sensed by the app does it become active and sends data to the network. The app works best when your phone is resting on a flat surface, like a table.
The developers hope that MyShake can add to information collected by the U.S Geological Survey. That U.S agency has created the Earthquake Early Warning System, also known as the EEW. The EEW has used sensors for measuring quakes in many areas. In places where no such equipment exists, MyShake may be the only method of early quake detection (发现). The app also shows ways to stay safer during an earthquake. The developers say it will become more effective as more people use it.
The developers say they hope to add a feature that will warn people about possible tsunami after an earthquake.
1.The new app
A.is a kind of accelerometer.
B.feels earthquakes through smartphones.
C.is developed by the U.S Geological Survey.
D.predicts possible tsunami after an earthquake.
2.What is the second paragraph mainly talking about?
A.How MyShake works.
B.What seismic activity is.
C.Why MyShake is developed.
D.When accelerometers record earthquake.
3.We can infer that MyShake
A.docs not work when the spartphone is in the pocket
B.sleeps while there is no shaking of the earth’s surface.
C.guides people how to survive when many people use it at the same time.
D.recognizes an earthquake when it receive the information from other sensors.
4.The new app developers hope to
A.use the information by the U.S Geological Survey to better MyShake.
B.unite the U.S Geological Survey to combine the EEW and MyShake.
C.help the EEW detect earthquakes somewhere.
D.improve the EEW.
