根据材料内容选择最佳答案

    For those who haven't heard of it, the Apple watch is the latest invention from the creators of the iPhone and Apple Mac. As the name suggests, this creation is a device designed to tell us the time. This is Apple, however, and an Apple watch is never just a watch. Not only does it show us the time, but it also acts as a fitness monitor and a messaging device that can be connected with an iPhone.

    Is this a smart invention or technology gone too far? While the Apple watch is stylish In appearance, I can't help but question certain aspects of the new device. Is it a positive thing to be able to receive messages through a watch, or is this another way of letting technology upset our social lives?

    Thanks to the invention of the smartwatch, we will no longer have to reach for our phones to check our messages. Imagine the possible result. A group of friends sitting at a table in a restaurant will overlook each other as everyone will be too busy watching their wrists in expectation of a new message. Students will have a way of checking their inbox during school, despite the fact that using mobile phones is not allowed in class. The list goes on. Although smartwatches may make communicating through technology easier, it seems that using them could actually hinder face-to-face communication.

    Much like a phone, the watch would also need to be charged every day. This is yet another aspect of the device which sets it apart from any "normal" watch. If, like me, you struggle when remembering to put your phone on charge, this is not necessarily a positive thing.

    I do have to agree. However, the watch has some interesting and purposeful functions. As a fitness monitor, the device can be used to create and record exercise activities. This could be of particular interest to outdoor fans. While there are several existing Android Apps that can already do this. I can see that the Apple watch would be a more convenient way of exercising without a mobile phone. The question remains, however, is the price worth the benefits?

    While there are clearly both advantages and disadvantages when it comes to Apple's latest invention, I personally like my single- purpose watch that simply tells me the time! What about you? Would you be interested in having a smartwatch?

(1)、Thanks to the invention of the Apple watch,        .
A、students don't use computers in class B、mobile phones don't need to be charged C、outdoor activities have become more popular D、messages can be checked without phones
(2)、The underlined word "hinder" in Paragraph 3 probably means         
A、make up B、depend on C、hold back D、look after
(3)、From the passage, we can learn that the writer_____________.
A、prefers single- purpose watches that tell the time B、thinks highly of the progress of technology C、introduces the newest kind of smartphones D、worries about the safety of the smartwatch
(4)、According to the passage, which is NOT the function of Apple Watch?
A、Telling time B、Downloading movie C、Recording sporting activities D、Receiving message
(5)、What is probably the best title for this passage?
A、The Apple Watch: The Latest Invention B、The Apple Watch: Technology Gone Too Far? C、The Apple Watch: Smart and Fashionable D、The Apple Watch: A Convenient Way to Exercise?
举一反三

    Life comes in a package. Thispackage includes happiness and sadness, failure and success, hope anddespair.Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and makeus a better person. With each passing day we learn to deal with varioussituations.

Love plays amain role in our life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person couldbecome cruel. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who showus with love and care. They teach us about what is right and wrong, good andbad. But we don't always care about it. It is only after marriage and havingkids that a person understands others' feelings.

Happiness canbring people a peaceful mind. No mind is happy without peace. Sadness is thecause of the death of a loved one or the failure. But all of these things willpass away.

Failure is thepath to success. It helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and showsus a specific way. Success brings in money, pride and self-respect.

Hope is whatkeeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makesus dream. Hope builds in patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in thedarkest hour, because after every night there is a day.

Life teaches usnot to regret over yesterday, for it has passed and is out of our control. Tomorrowis unknown, for it could either be bright or dark.So the only choice is towork hard today, so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.

根据短文内容,完成下面信息表。每空不得超过三个词。

Some people around you look so cool and happy, but you often feel lonely. Or the friends you have do not really understand you, and that makes you feel lonely too. So what can be done when you have this feeling?

Understand people's differences

Not everyone has to do things the same way or behave the same way. Find people who have the same feeling. That is always a good basic for the friendship. You can take part in activities outside school like sports, art classes and dancing classes. There you can have more chances to find people who have the same interest as you.

Develop your friendship

Friendships do not just happen, and they need work. Phone your friends once in a while. Being there when they need you means that they will do the same for you.

Accept others' invitations

Even if someone invites you to a party, you never know who else will be there. Laughing and playing together could start a new friendship.

Start a club

Make more friends by starting a club. Going camping together or regularly (有规律地) going to the movies doesn't take much time.

Have you ever shouted at your computer because it wasn't working? Of course, your computer can't "shout" back. But Al researchers have been working on computers that can argue and perhaps even win debates (辩论) with humans. 

IBM scientists recently published a paper in Nature about their new AI system— Project Debater. It can debate with people in front of a live audience. After listening to arguments from its opponent (对手), the system can search around 400 million online articles in less than five minutes. And then it looks for ideas that can support its own argument. 

Testing on the system began in 2019. When it debated with Harish Natarajan, a professional debater who holds the world record for the most debate competition victories. The topic was about subsidizing preschool (资助幼儿园) —and Project Debater argued to support this idea. Although Project Debater lost the debate in the end, the audience said it performed very well. Interestingly, 58 percent of the audience said that Project Debater increased their knowledge about the topic—only 20 percent said the same about Natarajan. 

According to Scientific American, results show that the system is able to form logical statements (有逻辑的陈述) . However,  ★ . Their goal is to help humans make better decisions, according to Ranit Aharanoy, manager of the Project Debater team. "It can debate both sides, so it can very quickly help you understand both sides of the problem, so you can have a wider view of the problem and make a more thoughtful decision." Aharanoy said. 

Let's wait and see how the Project Debater will develop in the near future. 

 请阅读下面短文,根据短文内容从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项

Zhou Chuna,a normal 15-year-old girl,shared her experience of cosmetic surgery(整容手术),more and more young people in China are having cosmetic surgery. It was reported that 19 percent of Chinese medical beauty customers in 2020 were aged 18 or under. 

Many beauty clinics(诊所) say that being more beautiful gives people an advantage in society,but the truth is that failed examples of cosmetic surgery are common to see. Once a teenage girl named Zhang had double eyelid surgery are common to see. Once a teenage girl named Zhang had double eyelid surgery.

Moreover,a large number of beauty care centers actually open against the law. It is said that China has about 13,000 beauty clinics.

More worrying,there is heated competition among the medical beauty clinics to win more teenage customers. Some businesses use catchphrases like "Only by becoming prettier can you be more loved" to spread" appearance stress". And many beauty clinics advertise directly to teenagers,encouraging them to" make some changes and let your classmates be amazed by your beauty in the new term". Some beauty clinics mislead their teenage patients by advertising low costs. One Internet user said she saw an advertisement for a 15﹣yuan treatment for pimples but the staff at the beauty clinic gave her a year's surgery plan which cost 8,000. 

Many experts have said it's dangerous for teenagers to have cosmetic surgery. Teenagers are more at risk to advertisement and social pressure,not to mention their level of physical maturity(成熟). That's why they are calling for stricter rules on the beauty clinics when it comes to the treatment of teenagers.
