Would you like to live in a city where buildings turn the light off for you, and self-driving cars will find the nearest parking space themselves? Although it might sound a little far from you, living in a “smart” city like this could happen sooner than you think.

Great changes have taken place in towns that we have lived in for centuries, while completely new cities are being built. One such place is the city of Songdo. Every home there will have a “telepresence” system(远程遥控系统)---allowing users to control the heating and looks, take part in video meeting, and receive education, healthcare and around the city, escalators(自动扶梯) will only move when someone is on them, and offices and schools will all be connected to the system.

The great mind behind Songdo is from the company Cisco. In fact, technology companies around the world such as IBM, Siemens and Microsoft are already in the business.

About 75% of the world's population will live in cities by 2050, so cities will need to be more modern to deal with the coming problems. “Making cities smarter is one way out, and I think this will in turn make cities greener," said Dan Hill, head of a research company.

1.According to the text, living in a “smart” city________.

A.is not a green way B.will be far from you

C.will soon become true D.is completely impossible

2.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?

A.A city of the future. B.A meeting in Songdo.

C.A plan to build a house. D.A report on public health.

3.Dan Hill thinks that making cities smarter is one way to_________.

A.drive people out of cities B.control the world's population

C.develop his own company D.solve the cities' coming problems

Oink! The Year of the Pig is coming. How much do you know about pigs? Do you like them? Many people don't, because they believe that pigs are naturally fat, lazy and dirty. But are any of those things true?

It is true that pigs are fat. They eat a lot. But they are useful to us. We get more than just pork from pigs. We can use their skin to make shoes. We can use their hair to make brushes. Pigs also provide us with ingredients for drugs like insulin(胰岛素). Insulin can treat diabetes (糖尿病).

People sometimes say. “You are as stupid as a pig.” But pigs are not stupid. In fact pigs are one of the 10 smartest animals. They have a good memory and can tell different shapes apart. Many experts think pigs are easier to train than dogs or cats. In France, people teach pigs to find truffles(松露). With their good sense of smell, they can find truffles even faster than dogs.

When you see pigs, they are usually in dirty water or mud. That's because pigs have no sweat glands(汗腺). On hot days, they have to cool themselves in water or mud. This keeps insects away from them as well. Mud can also protect their skin from sunburns.

These stereotypes about pigs often make us hold a negative(负面的) view about the animal. For example, If someone eats a lot, we say that they have “pigged out”. If someone's room is very messy, we might say his or her room looks like a pigsty(猪圈).

But people in ancient China really liked pigs. People thought the pig's big head and ears were a symbol of good luck. If someone had a round and chubby(胖乎乎的) face, he or she was thought to be blessed(有福气的). People also believed the animal, stood for wealth, as humans use every part of the pig. Piggy banks are a symbol of this. Most children have a piggy bank that they can use to save money.

1.People can use pigs' skin to___________.

A.make clothes B.make insulin

C.make shoes D.make brushes

2.According to the passage, pigs can____________.

A.tell one hundred different colors apart. B.find truffles with their good eyesight.

C.be of great help to people like dogs. D.get away from insects with their owners' help.

3.Which of the following best explained the underlined word “stereotypes”?

A.fixed ideas B.feelings C.mistakes D.decorations

4.Why did the people in ancient China like pigs?

A.People thought pigs were blessed by God.

B.People believed the animal stood for health.

C.People knew pigs were one of the 10 smartest animals.

D.People thought pigs can bring good luck to them.

5.The writer wrote this passage mainly to_____________.

A.tell that pigs are not stupid, dirty or fat at all. B.criticize people who don't really know about pigs.

C.point out that pigs can do a lot of things for people. D.help people know more about the pigs.

Smart phones with cameras that can take selfies (自拍) have become popular. We can now take every moment of our life and then share it with the world through the Internet. However, some believe that taking a selfie is causing people to take risks that something causing people to take risks that something cause death!

Though the problem of taking selfies has been known for a while, it became worse and had to be dealt with on September 21st following the death of Frank, who was trying to take a selfie with his friends when they fell off some stairs. His friend only broke his leg while Frank died from the accident. It was reported that three Indian students were run over(碾压) by a passing train while they were taking a selfie on the railway tracks.

More and more selfie-connected accidents are forcing some governments to deal with the problem. In July, the Russian Interior Ministry began a program which didn't allow visitors to use the selfie stick(自拍杆). Many museums and theme parks haven't allowed visitors to use the selfie stick, either.

Although official ways may help reduce the accidents, the only way to stop selfie-connected accidents is that everyone takes them seriously. So when you decide to take a selfie that appears dangerous, be sure to stop.

1.完成句子__________was lucky enough not to die after he fell off some stairs.

2.完成句子The three Indian students___________ while they were taking a selfie.

3.简略回答问题When did the Russian Interior Ministry stop people from using the selfie stick?
