    Today we can do everything with apps: pay bills, order food and shop for anything. Mobile technology means we can hold the world in our hands, However, when it comes to technology and health care, opportunities and challenges come together.

    Let's start with the ways to get health care. Telemedicine can allow a patient to use technology to see the doctor online and get a diagnosis (诊断) and instructions without leaving home.

    In addition, there are many patient websites. These allow for different kinds of interactions about our health needs without involving the medical team. Setting a date with doctors and reading lab results are readily achieved by technology.

    A whole new age of medical care seems likely (可能的) to come in the future. But every coin has two sides. What might be on the other side of techno-health care?

    Firstly, we should think about the health care experience as a whole. A usual visit to a doctor begins with a receptionist (接待员), who can see and tell how a patient is doing, This may influence the treatment effect. It's unlikely that a patient website will have such intuition.

    Next, sharing the details of one's life requires trust, which takes time to build. This is certainly true in health care, where some of life's best and worst moments involve doctors. The human touch should not be undervalued and is unlikely to be there over the smartphone.

    Lastly, test results can be difficult to understand. When someone without a medical degree sees a flagged result with no explanation on the website, there's room for all kinds of stories to form in their minds—and also great worry.

    So how does medicine adapt (适应) to the new technology age? Very talented companies are working on it There is medical equipment (设备) that can be used at home to send necessary signs and heart sounds through telemedicine .It seems likely that some companies will find a way to explain test results.

    But what it will not achieve is the warmth of human interaction and touch. Patients often need someone to listen to —and care about—their journey story, which will never be realized through a human-less technology. Technology should be a tool, but depending on it totally will most certainly have unexpected effects. Let's not allow our humanity to be one of them.

(1)、According to the passage, how does technology help health care?
A、It encourages doctors to voice their needs on the websites B、It offers the patient a convenient way to get a diagnosis C、It improves relations between doctors and patients. D、It provides an opportunity to build a medical team
(2)、The word "intuition" in Paragraph 5 probably means______.
A、an ability to understand B、an interesting experience C、a chance to win D、a fair decision
(3)、What do you know about techno-health care from the passage?
A、Patient websites require trust from doctors. B、Talented companies can give medical advice. C、Flagged results may cause worry for patients. D、Medical equipment collects patients' stories.
(4)、The writer probably agrees that_____.
A、technology can deal with unexpected effects. B、telemedicine can take the place of usual health care. C、it is difficult for patients to adapt to the new technology age. D、techno-health care should take humanity into consideration.

Eczema (湿疹) is a disease which influences children and teenagers much more often than adults.

The symptoms (症状) of eczema are different among people, such as dry, itchy (发痒的) skin with redness, or sores. Eczema can happen on any part of the body, such as hands, feet, knees, face and neck. The condition can last for more than one year. Most children will not get eczema as they grow up. However, some people have eczema again when they get older. This means that they need a long-lasting treatment.

Why do people get eczema? Your genes (基因). Doctors found that if both parents have eczema, their child is 3-5 times more likely to have one as well. Meanwhile, some doctors found that kids who live in cities may have the higher possibility of getting eczema than those who live in the country. Other causes of eczema include types of soap, dry wintertime air, and some clothes that make the skin uncomfortable.

Eczema can have a large effect on a person's life. The itchy feeling of eczema can be so serious that it keeps many patients awake at night, which makes them more tired and nervous during the day. The itchiness can also make it hard to focus on work or school. Also, if viruses get under the skin, sometimes they can cause more serious diseases. So people with eczema are more likely to get ill than people with healthy skin. Finally, people may lose confidence because of looking different.

There are plenty of ways to treat eczema or to stop it from getting worse. The most important is to make sure to use moisturizers (润肤膏) often. They moisturize the skin and prevent it from getting dry. When moisturizer does not work, doctors may tell patients to take medicines to help with eczema. If those ways can't help patients at all, doctors will suggest other treatments like light therapy (疗法), which uses specific waves of light by machine. But if you do have eczema, avoid hot showers or baths to keep the skin from getting itchy. Remember to keep clear of some clothes like sweaters. Now you can help others learn about eczema too!

Liu Yaxuan is totally a homebody. Every weekend, this14-year-old student from Tsinghua High School watches popular TV dramas like The Journey of Flower(《花千骨》) and plays with her mobile phone. She hates playing outdoor sports. "It's too tiring," she said.

She is not alone. In recent years, more and more Chinese teenagers are becoming homebodies. A survey of kids aged 2 to 14 showed about 60 percent of them spend less than one hour doing outdoor activities every day. 

 This problem may have to do with heavy academic pressure(学业压力). Hu Huilan, 12, from Shenzhen Nanshan Language School, is busy with much homework and many after- school classes on weekends. "I don't want to get behind, " she said. 

 Even if this isn't a problem, kids still prefer indoor life. Wang Di, 12, from Anhui No. 50 Middle School, often reads Harry Potter, listens to music and surfs the Internet at home. "I can do so many things I like at home rather than hanging out in smoggy weather, " she said. 

 The situation for foreign students is quite different. Tina Smith, 15, from a high school in Toronto Canada, says her peers(同龄人) don't like staying indoors at all. " They spend their free time outdoors even if it just means going to the park or reading a book under the tree. Nice weather, little homework and rich outdoor activities enable us to do that, " she said.

Last December, I was looking for a beautiful mountain resort (度假胜地) for my holiday. A friend suggested Zermat. The name alone was enough to interest me at once, so I did some research, bought a ticket, and soon found myself on a plane to Switzerland.

Located in the south of the country, Zermat is known for its mountainous scenery. The town sits at the foot of the Matterhorn, one of the most famous mountains in the Alps. As my train moved towards Zermat, I couldn't wait to see with my own eyes the shape of the great Matterhorn.

I come from the busy city of Bangkok, and it was fascinating to find myself in a small town with fewer than 6,000 people. Throughout the year, Zermatt's population increases very much with tourists. The town, which is famous for its outdoor activities, invites people to come to ski, hike, climb... anything, as long as they don't bring their car.

Before I got there, I found out that I wouldn't be able to rent (租) a car. In fact, cars that use traditional oil are not allowed inside the town. That's because the people of Zermatt are so proud of their view of the great Matterhorn that they don't want it blocked by air pollution from cars. So visitors like me usually arrive in Zermat by train.

I quite enjoyed being "car-free" and exploring the place on foot. I used one of the town's electric taxis when I wanted to travel a bit further. I also took an electric bus once. But nothing was more fun than exploring the area in an old-fashioned horse-drawn carriage (四轮马车). I was happy to exchange the polluted skies of downtown Bangkok for the clean, clear mountain air. And until I experienced the peace and quiet in Zermatt, I didn't realise how much traffic noise I hear every day. The town's electric cars were practically silent.

 阅读下列短文,从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

The horse-face skirt or mamianqun, is a traditional Chinese skirt that dates back to the Song dynasty. It actually has nothing to do with a horse's face. "Ma Mian" in ancient China has another meaning. It refers to a special structure of ancient Chinese city wall system. But whether its name is really related to the city wall is still a question.

During the Song dynasty, it was initially worn by high-class coursesans (歌舞伎) and was made of silk or cotton. Because of the style and its functionality, it soon spread among the upper-class ladies. In the early Ming dynasty, mamianqun was quite loose, and its style was simple, and it was characterized (是……的特征) by a high-waisted design and a skirt that looked like the face of a horse. Mamianqun in the Qing dynasty gradually developed into the everyday clothing of Han women, which was also used in wedding dresses in the late Qing dynasty. Mamianqun was still worn by Chinese women in the 1920s. After the May Fourth Movement, the difference between Chinese women's skirts and Western women's skirts became smaller, and the traditional elements gradually disappeared.

Nowadays, this traditional beauty continues to be valued by Chinese people. The Chinese actress Yang Mi wore it in the 2024 Henan TV Spring Festival Gala. It immediately became a trendy clothing on social media. Many people searched the same skirt worn by the actress on e-shopping platforms. It is called the neo-Chinese style which naturally puts together modernity and tradition.
