    Winter running is the best way to lose winter weight. But before heading out, make sure  you have a solid plan. You don’t want to come across accident along the way. 1..

Wear the Right Shoes

The right shoes will depend on the road.You should wear shoes that are made for the kind of surface you run on. For example, if you are running on slippery surfaces, you want shoes  with great friction(摩擦力). 2.when trying out a pair of running shoes, check the fit, feel and ride of the shoes.These elements are important once you take your new shoes out for a run.

Warm Up

Warm-up is an important part to keep fit. Especially if temperatures drop and your muscles are stiff (僵硬的) from the cold! 3. It also prepares the muscles for the intense (激烈的) activity ahead. The cold climate won’t feel as cold when you do warm-ups. This is because blood flows much faster after a good warm up!

Deal with Wind

4. Start your run into the wind and finish running with it at your back. This keep icy wind from blasting (用力撞击) your face. To prevent any injuries or accidents, break your run into small parts. 5.You can use certain creams on the nose and cheeks to prevent frostbite. Don’t skip your sun-block if you’re running during the day. UVB (紫外线) passes through the clouds. Running for an extended period on a cloudy day will still damage the skin.

A. It’s hard to run if it’s too windy.

B. It also helps to keep the skin protected from the wind.

C. Your shoes should fit very well so you don’t slip

D. Here we are giving you important tips to remember.

E. Running makes you warm.

F. Don’t run in the wind.

G. Warm-up prevents injuries.

 

    Traditionally, robots have been hard, made of metal and other rigid material .But a team of scientists at Harvard University in the US has managed to build an entirely soft robot—one that draws inspiration from an octopus (章鱼).

Described in science journal Nature, the “Octobot” could pave the way for more effective autonomous robots that could be used in search, rescue and exploration. “The Octobot is minimal system which may serve as a foundation for a new generation of completely soft, autonomous robots”, the study’s authors wrote.

Robots built for precise, repetitive movements in a controlled environment don’t do so well on rough terrains (地形) or in unpredictable conditions. And they aren’t especially safe around humans, because they’re made out of hard and heavy parts that could be potentially dangerous to their users.

So researchers have been working on building soft robots for decades. They’ve taken inspiration from nature, looking to animals from jellyfish to cockroaches, which are often made up of more flexible matter.

But creating a completely soft robot remains a challenge. Even if engineers build a silicone (硅酮) body, it’s still a grand challenge to construct flexible versions of essential parts, such as a source of power.

“Although soft robotics is still in its early stage, it holds great promise for several applications, such as search-rescue operations and exploration,” Barbara Mazzolai and Virgilio Mattoli of the Italian Institute of Technology Center for Micro-BioRobotics, wrote in a comment. “Soft robots might also open up new approaches to improving wellness and quality of life.”

1.What’s the special feature of “Octobot”?

A.It’s very small. B.It’s made of metal.

C.It’s soft. D.It looks like an octopus.

2.What’s the shortcoming of traditional robots?

A.They’re hard to control. B.They can’t behave well all the time.

C.They can’t predict conditions. D.They’re too heavy to move.

3.Which of the following is wrong?

A.The original robots can work on rough land well.

B.The original robots may hurt people.

C.It’s tough to invent an absolutely soft robot.

D.The soft robots might improve the quality of human life.

4.One of the biggest challenges is to build Octobot’s ________.

A.silicone body B.complex structure

C.precise movements D.flexible power source

5.What’s the possible application of “Octobot”?

A.Medical research. B.Life rescue.

C.Machine operation. D.House cleaning.

 

    Despite being used by 1.34 billion people each year, traveling on the Tube in London can actually be quite lonely. An unwritten rule encouraging reticence (沉默寡言), mixed with classic British reserve, means that even though you’re packed into enclosed space with hundreds of other people, the morning trip can leave you feeling somewhat lonely.

One London resident, however, is trying to change this. “You get on the Tube and it’s completely silent and it’s strange,” says Jonathan Dunne, an American living in London, who has started a campaign of giving out badges (徽章) with the slogan “Tube chat?” last month, encouraging travelers in London to get to talk to one another. “I handed out 500 badges during rush hour in a city of 8 million, expecting most of them to be thrown away, but after about 24 hours it completely snowballed,” he says. Dunne and his “Tube chat” campaign have been reported by media across the world, seeing TV interviews in Sweden, Brazil and the UK, as well as countless website, newspaper and magazine appearances.

Although Dunne says he’s received mostly positive responses, there are always exceptions.

Londoner Brian Wilson responded with a campaign of his own, handing out 500 badges with the words “Don’t even think about it” on them. “I can’t stand the idea of having to talk to strangers on the Tube on my way to work,” he said.

Michael Robinson, 24, a student from London, agrees. “Being on the Tube is the only peace and quiet some people get on their journeys to and from work. It doesn’t need to be spoiled by people coming up and chatting to you,” he says.

“People assume that I just walk up and talk to strangers, which I don’t, but it’s been a great way to meet people you would never have normally spoken to,” Dunne says. So if you ever end up using public transport in London, why not say hello to the person next to you? Just make sure to check for a badge first.

1.What does the underlined word “reserve” mean?

A.tidiness B.gentleness

C.silence D.vividness

2.What can the badge with “Tube Chat?” be seen as?

A.A request for keeping silent.

B.A special way of greeting someone.

C.A signal of avoiding being disturbed.

D.An encouragement to start a conversation.

3.How is Dunne’s campaign getting along?

A.Most passengers have refused to accept it.

B.Wilson has made great efforts to promote it.

C.It has been covered in many countries.

D.It has become a worldwide campaign.

4.Why does the author mention Brian and Michael?

A.To stress the importance of communication.

B.To show not everyone agrees with Dunne’s idea.

C.To prove Londoners are speechless on the Tube.

D.To state the disadvantages of chatting with strangers.

5.What’s the best title for the passage?

A.Please mind the silence on the Tube!

B.Time to change your way to take the subway!

C.What makes people feel lonely on the Tube?

D.Why was the “Tube Chat?” campaign not a success?

 

    Every November, Time magazine picks out what it calls “The 25 Best Inventions” of the year. Here, Teens has chosen some of the most interesting ones.

Ember Mug

It’s hard to always keep coffee at the right temperature, especially in winter. It’s too hot to drink at first, but before we know it, it gets too cold and loses all its taste. The perfect level of warmth for a cup of coffee only lasts for 37 seconds, which makes the Ember Mug a great innovation. It keeps your coffee or tea at a certain temperature, anywhere between 45 and 62 once you set it through a smart-phone app.

Tasty One Top

TV cooking shows make cooking look so easy, but it’s almost impossible to get the recipes to cook the same as how the professionals cook. 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. For example, it’ll tell you when to turn your steak or when to add certain ingredients.

Jibo

Smart speakers from companies like Amazon and Xiaomi have added a lot of fun to our lives, but they’re still just faceless speakers. However, Jibo, developed by MIT professor Cynthia Breazeal, has brought smart technology to life. Said to be “the world’s first social robot for the home”, Jibo looks like a cartoon character. Inside its “head”, there are various sensors (传感器) and cameras, which allow it to recognize faces and speech. It can also set alarms, remind you of important things, tell you the weather and read news or messages from your friends and family.

阅读下面短文,请根据短文后的要求答题。

It is never too late to add some new and better practices into your daily life. Here are some wise lessons that I wish I knew when I was younger:

Don’t wait until tomorrow. Enjoy every moment of today, because you are not guaranteed a tomorrow. Don’t put off your dreams. Don’t wait to do. If it’s important to youthen do it today. Pay attention to what is happening now, to the people around you, to the task at hand and to all of the choices you make today.

It’s called work for a reason. Success at anything takes work. When you hear about an overnight success story, don’t forget about all of the work that came before. You may have to do work you do not enjoy before you get success. Keep going.

Don’t burn your bridges. You never know when a former bosscolleague, business partner or acquaintance may come in handy. Try to part on good terms, stay on good terms and never gossip(说长道短)about former connections. A wide pool of friends, coworkers and connections of all kinds will provide a wealthy resource of ideas and support as you go forward in life.

It’s not a race. You have so much to do and it feels as though you have to be in a hurry to get there. But in factyou do not have to do it all at once. If you try to do it all at once, you will at best not have time to enjoy it and at worst burn out and damage your health and relationships. Slow down and take one thing at a time, one day at a time

Look for the good in everything. Stay positive. Look for the good in people. Celebrate the happy moments. Give helpful encouragement rather than negative criticism. If you view the world around you and life’s challenges through goodnessthen you will find life much more enjoyable

1.What’s the author’s attitude towards success? (No more than 15 words )

_______________________________________________________________________________

2.List three kinds of helpful bridges while you go forward in life. (No more than 8 words)

_______________________________________________________________________________

What are the biggest problems that society will have to deal with in the new age? There are diseases like AIDS and cancer. There’s climate change, of course. And what about producing enough cheap food and energy for the world’s growing population? Who’s going to solve all these terrible problems? Yes, politicians and world leaders will have a big part to play. Yes, businesses will need to create the economic wealth to pay for some of these things. But who’s going to make a much greater difference to something like AIDS or climate change? It’s going to be a scientist. It is the scientist who can turn some new bit of science into a new technology to solve these problems.

If you like thinking about the world around you, why not become a scientist? It doesn’t mean you have to wear a white coat and plastic glasses and spend all your time in a lab as most people often imagine! Scientists do all kinds of amazing things that are actually interesting!

Military scientists develop not only new weapons but new military technologies that could help make wars out of date. Forensic(法医的) scientists work with the police to find quite small clues to catch criminals. Scientists work in schools and colleges as the teachers and professors who will train tomorrow’s scientists. Don’t think a scientist is far away! Maybe you like cooking? You could be a food technologist helping to keep fruit and vegetables fresher for longer. Perhaps sport is your thing? Do you know that most top athletes work with sports scientists in order to improve their performance? You could even be the science writer who gets to spend the life studying the latest advances and sharing them with the world.

Looking for something to do for the rest of your life? My advice? Take a long and hard look at science. It is interesting and ever.

1.Many problems are mentioned in the first paragraph to ________.

    Every day, in all kinds of weather, thousands of men and women jog. Why has jogging-running slowly for long distances become so popular? Most joggers begin because they hear it is a very good exercise. Jogging makes the heart stronger and helps people lose weight. It can also help them feel better about themselves.

Donald Robbins, who is forty-two years old and works in an office, began jogging a few years ago because he felt he was too fat. At first he could only run about 100 yards. It took him three months to be able to run a mile. But two years later, he ran in a marathon race over twenty-six miles. Many joggers, like Donald Robbins, feel that if they can succeed in jogging, they can succeed at other things also, and quite often this feeling helps them at their jobs.

Should you jog too? If you do, be sure to ask your doctor for advice. Jogging may be too much exercise for you.

Does jogging cost much? No, it costs almost nothing. But it is very important to have a good pair of shoes that are made especially for jogging. They protect your feet and legs from the shock of running on hard surface.

How fast should you go? Jog with a friend and talk to each other as you run. If you have difficulty in talking, you’re going too fast.

How far should you jog? Remember not to go too far too soon. In fact, you should walk, not run, the first few times. Then do some short jogs, but no more than what you can do comfortably. After that, increase your distance a quarter or half mile every two weeks or so. Maybe in a few years, you can run in a marathon too. Thousands of people do.

1.The article is mainly about_______.

A.jogging as a sport B.jogging as an exercise

C.jogging in a safe way D.jogging as a way to marathon.

2.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A.Many people think that jogging is a set of one’s will power(毅力).

B.Jogging should be done in the early morning

C.Jogging is time-spending.

D.You should not talk while jogging.

3.Which piece of advice is NOT mentioned in the article?

A.Have a good pair of shoes. B.Have a sports suit.

C.Remember not to go too far too soon at the beginning. D.Ask your doctor for advice.

4.Why is jogging so popular according to the passage?

A.It doesn’t cost much.

B.One can start jogging at any time and in any place.

C.One can talk with one’s friend while jogging.

D.It is a very good exercise.

5.The author doesn’t think that everybody is fit for jogging. Which paragraph deals with it?

A.Para.1. B.Para.2.

C.Para.3. D.Para.4.

 

I was reading these interesting stories behind a group of great logos in the world. Personally Nike is my favorite one it’s so simple. And I liked the stories behind them, which made me forget all other things. McDonald’s, Apple, Mercedes Benz and Adidas own great logos as well, and they are among my favorites.

Nike

In the Greek myth, Nike is the goddess of victory and the source of inspiration for soldiers. This logo represents the wing in the famous statue of the Greek goddess. Nike’s logo was designed by Carolyn Davidson in 1971 for $35, and was registered as a trademark in 1995.

McDonald’s

The logo was designed in 1962 by Jim Schindler to resemble the archshaped(拱形的) signs on the side of the company’s then walk-up hamburger stand. Later on, the two golden arches were combined together to form the M. The McDonald’s name was added to the logo in 1968.

Apple

There are different stories behind Apple’s logo. The first logo was a reference to the religious story of Adam and Eve, in which the apple represented the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge. One year later, the second logo was designed in 1977 by Steve Jobs and Ronald Wayne, and it described Sir Isaac Newton sitting under an apple tree. This logo didn’t stay long. One year later it was replaced almost immediately by graphic designer Rob Janoff’s “rainbow apple”, a rainbow-colored silhouette(轮廓) of an apple with a bite taken out of it. And then the rainbow-colored apple was replaced by the one-colored logo in 1998. It has not been changed so far.

Mercedes Benz

The Mercedes Benz logo, which was originally created by Gottlieb Daimler in 1909, consists of a simple description of a three-pointed star that represents its rule of the land, the sea and the air. The company was founded by Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach. Mercedes is the name of Maybach’s elder daughter, while Benz came as a result of a combination with Benz, Cie and DMG in 1926.

Adidas

The Adidas logo, which was created by the founder of the company Adi Dassler, represents mountains, pointing towards the challenges that are seen ahead and goals that can be achieved. The logo was used for the first time in 1967.

1.What does the author think of the stories of the great logos?

A.They are boring. B.They are out of date.

C.They are attractive. D.They are practical.

2.What does Nike’s logo stand for?

A.The goddess of victory.

B.The source of inspiration for soldiers.

C.The statue of the Greek goddess.

D.The wing of the Greek goddess.
