Being able to find high quality healthcare at an affordable price is a problem to be solved in many countries. In the United States, Walmart, a large chain store, is trying to help. It is offering something new to its employees: cutting the cost of a doctor’s appointment(预约) to only $4 instead of the usual $40 for the same service.

Walmart is the latest major business in the United States to push its workers toward a high-tech way to be examined and treated by doctors. Thanks to telemedicine (远程医疗), people can talk with medical experts from the privacy of their own homes, often using a secure video connection.

Supporters say online visits make it easier for patients to see an expert or quickly find help for problems considered non-emergencies. Some healthcare needs are well-suited for telemedicine. It can help people seek treatment for insect bites or skin conditions. Patients who have had medical treatments and cannot move around easily can use telemedicine for their follow-up visits. Also, people seeking help for mental health issues can benefit from the privacy that telemedicine gives.

But still, many people do not use telemedicine, they continue to go to the doctor’s office when they are sick. 80 percent of middle-size and large U.S. companies offered telemedicine services to their workers in 2018. However, only 8 percent of its employees used telemedicine at least once in 2017. Compared with seeing a real doctor in person, some people may think the quality of telemedicine is not as good. Parents, for example, may feel they are not giving their child the best care if they use a virtual doctor appointment. Another reason some adults may not use telemedicine services is trust. Tom Hill, aged 66, says he has no plans to ever use telemedicine. He says, for him, it is important to look at his doctor in the eye and shake hands.

However, for some people, especially young people and busy students, telemedicine might be a good choice. It can cut down on the time away from work. It can also cut down on the cost of doctor visits.

1.What do we know about telemedicine?

A.It is increasingly popular with people in America.

B.It is an online service provided by most companies.

C.It enables the patients to see a doctor at home for free.

D.It makes it easier for people to receive medical treatment.

2.Who is most likely to use “telemedicine”?

A.Robert, a grandfather who fell off a bike and got injured.

B.Katherine, a shy woman who suffers from mental illness.

C.Jackson, a firefighter who got seriously burnt in a big fire.

D.Susan, a mother whose kid is suffering from a strange disease.

3.What is the author’s attitude towards “telemedicine”?

A.Positive. B.Concerned.

C.Uncertain. D.Doubtful.

"S. H.E. is going to sing at the CCTV annual Spring Festival Evening Party, is that true?" cried out Peng Weiye, a Senior 2 girl in Shanghai and die-hard S. H.E. fan.

After checking it on the Internet, Peng quickly phoned friends to spread the news. For fans like her, S. H. E. ’s performance is perhaps the only part of the old fashioned evening to get excited about.

The Taiwanese band is made up of Selina, Hebe and Ella. Their name comes from the first letter of each of the singers' English names.

Last week S. H. E. announced they would perform in Las Vegas, US, over Christmas and then in Guangzhou on January 15.

At their Shanghai show on October 30, hundreds of parents waited outside the Hongkou Stadium. Inside, thousands of teenagers sang, cried and shouted as the band performed.

"I love their music, healthy image and everything related to them. Thank God that, although my parents don't understand why I love them so much, they still bought me a ticket for that show," said Peng about the Shanghai performance.

It is not just on the mainland that the three girls have made audiences much excited. In the past year the band has passed through Taiwan, Hong Kong and even Singapore and Malaysia.

When the three high school girls entered a singing contest in Taiwan in 2000, none of them ever dreamed of being a superstar. "We had never met before, and we didn't talk at all at the beginning," recalled Ella.

When asked about the secret of their success, she said, "Our average looks and not-so-expensive clothes keep us close to our fans. We are happy to be the girls next door, your singing sisters."

"It's really a magical journey, from day-dreaming high school girls to singers performing on the same stage as our idols(偶像). Nothing but magical," she said.

1. Why was Peng Weiye, a Senior 2 girl, so excited?

2.How did the Taiwanese band get the name?

3.What do you know about Peng Weiye?

4.Which is true about S. H. E. ?

5. Which do you think is NOT the reason for S. H. E’s popularity among their fans?

A popular CCTV host’s “improper remarks” that were caught on video at a dinner party have led to an investigation into the incident and a suspension of his programs.

The video, released online on Monday, showed host Bi Fujian using vulgar words about Chairman Mao Zedong while singing in the style of Peking Opera, enraging（激怒） some netizens and causing a stir on the Internet.

CCTV said on its micro blog on Wednesday that it will investigate the incident, which it said many have found disturbing.

Bi’s programs will stop being broadcast until at least Sunday, as his comments in the video have seriously damaged the broadcaster’s image, Huaxi Metropolis Daily quoted a CCTV staff member as saying.

The CCTV employee said it is uncertain whether the programs can be broadcast again after Sunday, the report added.

Bi, 56, is popular for a hosting style that engages the audience. He has hosted the CCTV Spring Festival Gala since 2012, as well as a popular talent show involving Westerners speaking Chinese. The cancellation was the first decision after Nie Chenxi was named CCTV president on Tuesday, the report said, adding that Nie had ordered all staff members to strictly correct work styles.

A micro-blogger named Zhou Junchi said that free speech doesn’t mean it is OK to defame others, adding that Bi’s comments were not proper for a popular host. Cheng Manli, a professor specializing in communication at Peking University, echoed Zhou, saying Bi should pay more attention to his behavior and speech as a public figure.

“It does not mean we cannot share our opinions, but using ugly words and sarcasm to comment on Chinese leaders who have passed away is improper,” Cheng said.

“The actions and words of celebrities are easily broadened in today’s Internet era, which is open and can have a huge influence, so it is a must for the public figures to boost the quality of their speech and behavior. Otherwise, their images will be affected, such as the stars who were recently punished for drug use,” she said.

“Everyone should take responsibility for what he or she says in public and online. It’s better, I think, to share different ideas in a normal way,” she suggested. But she added that the party in the video seemed private, “so its release is also improper to some extent.”

The video was recorded by someone sitting on Bi’s right, but who it is and why the video was put online is unknown.

1.According to the passage, CCTV’s　 response when the incident happened was ______.

A. to change his job

B. to have Bi Fujian fired

C. to look into the matter

D. to make him apologize

2. We can learn from the passage that _______.

A. Bi Fujian’s program will be stopped forever

B. the incident happened before the new CCTV president’s arrival

C. the video was recorded when Bi Fujian was working in a program

D. Huaxi Metropolis Daily thinks the incident damages CCTV’s image

3. As is mentioned in the passage, Chen Manli holds the view that________.

A. Bi Fujian should be severely punished

B. a celebrity’s influence can be enlarged through the Internet

C. public figures should not share their opinions

D. it is all right to release private video of a celebrity

4.The underlined word “boost” probably means “_________”.

A. cover　　　　　　　　 B. improve

C. influence　　　　　 D. Solve

At a few minutes past five, Dave noted that the blanket of darkness was lifting. He was just able to make out the heavier masses that eventually appeared as the familiar trees that lined the road at the base of the hill. The upper reaches of the sky showed lighter shades of gray.

Dave got out of bed quietly and dressed quickly. He mixed a spoonful of instant chocolate into a glass of cold water, and his impatience forced him to finish the drink in gulps.

As he walked down toward the lake, Dave paused to reach for the fishing pole and gear box on the bench where he had left them the night before.

By the time where he reached the small boat, a thick white mist（雾气）had spread over the surface of the water. He stepped into the boat, sat down, and rowed out of the weed beds that lined the edge of the shore.

The outer fringe（边缘）of the lake disappeared as the boat moved forward noiselessly. All he could see was the enveloping whiteness. He could not tell where the boat and the surrounding air met the surface of the lake.

Dave rowed steadily ahead, relying on a mental picture of the surroundings. Then the mist began to rise, slowly. It soon rested inches above the still surface of the lake. The heavy silence was now being broken by the fish breaking through the surface as they leaped out of the water for low-flying insects.

The magic time had arrived. Dave raised his pole. Dawn was broken. He was excited with expectancy.

1.Dave got up early in the morning to ________.

A. enjoy the scene of the lake         B. seek adventure at the lake

C. go fishing in the lake              D. take a walk by the lake

2.According to the story, which of the following is TRUE?

A.Dave broke the quietness of the lake.

B.Dave was familiar with the surroundings.

C.Dave took a picture of the lake with him.

D.Dave forgot the fishing pole at the beginning.

3.The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 6 refers to ________.

A.fish     B. boat     C. silence    D. mist

4.What can we learn from the end of the story?

A.Dave was hopeful of catching a lot of fish.

B.Dave wished the weather would be better.

C.Dave was happy that dawn was broken.

D.Dave expected someone else would come.
