Beep! Beep! Barcode (条形码) technology makes it faster and easier to buy things in stores. You’ve probably seen the black-and-white zebra stripes (条纹) on product packaging. This year, this great invention is 50 years old!
On a Sunday afternoon in 1971, IBM engineer George Laurer came up with a code that could be printed on food labels (商标). It became the basis for the Universal Product Code, which was used by many grocery companies starting in 1973, according to The New York Times. Before this, cashiers (收银员) had to ring up prices by hand.
Time has proven it to be a great invention. Today, barcodes are scanned (扫描) over 6 billion times every day and used by 2 million companies worldwide, PR Newswire reported.
What information does a barcode contain? Where the product comes from, where it has been, its price, expiration date (过期时间)… you name it. It can also help stores keep track of (跟踪) their products. For example, if there are 10 boxes of milk and a customer buys one, it will be recorded so that the store owner knows there are nine boxes left. In the 1980s, libraries started using barcodes to keep track of books in this way.
“Its creation allowed the first digitization (数字化) in the control of the stock (库存),” José María Bonmatí from AECOC, a Spanish commercial association, told El Mundo.
The next generation of barcodes, such as QR codes (二维码), can hold more information. “They can tell consumers if a product contains allergens (过敏原) or if it is organic (有机的). This provides consumers with a greater level of trust in the products they buy,” said GS 1, an organization that develops global barcode standards.
16. What do we know about barcodes?
A. They were first used in New York. B. They were invented five decades ago.
C. They were based on the Universal Product Code. D. They were designed by a cashier in a grocery store.
17. What is Paragraph 3 about?
A. What barcodes can be used for. B. What barcodes can help customers do.
C. How widely barcodes are used worldwide. D. How information is stored in barcodes.
18. According to José María Bonmatí barcodes __________.
A. make cashiers’ work easier to do B. improve the quality of food packaging
C. help companies better manage their stock D. tell consumers more about the products they buy
19. What do we know from the last paragraph?
A. The importance of barcodes still needs to be proven.
B. QR codes will replace barcodes in the future.
C. GS 1 is developing a new type of barcode.
D. QR codes are more consumer friendly.
20. Which word might the writer use to describe barcodes?
A. Organic. B. Beautiful. C. Convenient. D. Expensive.
From a young age, I started to carefully make to-do lists, writing down tasks — “read two new books”, “do an extra hour of math” — and crossing them off as they were completed. All through my teens, this was a way to organize my confused mind as it jumped from one brilliant idea to another, which played a great role in my study. I knew what I had to do and when to do them.
As I moved to Britain for a degree, and then started a career and my own family, I continued focusing on the things I needed to achieve. The to-do lists started to have disadvantages; they were eventually controlling me. I didn’t celebrate achievements like moving up the studying ladder. Instead, I kept writing all the things I still had to do, always driving myself forward and never stopping to take a breath.
I had great anxiety. So I decided to start writing a “have-done” list every Friday evening. As the weeks went by, when looking at what else I had to do, I also rethought about my achievements and celebrated the smallest wins. It was a tiny change, but it has been important in helping me know how I measure success in life.
I’m still driven to succeed when taking time to rethink of the things I have achieved — however big or small. I’m able to set my own standards of success. Writing these achievements down reminds me of the tiniest success. And my self-worth and value are no longer measured by the ticks and crosses on my to-do lists.
21. What did the author think about her making to-do lists through her teens?
A. It made her life less organized.
B. It benefited her studying performance.
C. It offered her different career choices.
D. It greatly reduced her negative feelings.
22 What tiny change did the author have in her life later?
A. Making more small achievements.
B. Showing little concern for the to-do list.
C. Paying less attention to wins and losses.
D. Combining to-do lists with have-done lists.
23. Which of the following words can best describe the author?
A. Determined and disciplined. B. friendly and careful.
C. Adventurous and responsible. D. Generous and outgoing.
24. What can we learn from the author’s experience?
A. Never stop pushing ourselves hard.
B. Don’t forget to celebrate our achievements.
C. The road to growth is full of ups and downs.
D. All that matters is to grasp the correct method.
25. Which statement is not true according to the passage?
A. The author would mark the to-do lists after he had finished them when he was a teen.
B. The habit of keeping to-do lists prevent the author from relaxing himself.
C. The author rethought the things he had achieved to measure his self-worth and value.
D. The disadvantages of the to-do lists has taken the place of the benefits.
Many boys get hooked (钩住) on the games and want to learn how to reprogram them to their interest. From this attraction they go on to learn how to design (设计) and create technology. Often they become the technologists of our society. They lead us through the great changes of the information age and redesign our culture. ___26___

Is the absence of girls in computer science classes in high schools and colleges a matter of biology? Well, it maybe not.
Interviews with women who are studying computer science reveal (揭示) a connection they see between computing and other areas they want — like medicine, environmental protection and so on. ____29____
What would our world look like if there were larger numbers of female computer scientists? ___30___ That would be a step forward.
It seems necessary to make sure that women are “drivers”, not just “passengers”. The computer gaming industry needs a new operating system.
A. So, where are the girls?
B. But there is still no way at present to fix this.
C. They did not like just playing around with computers.
D. At least, products are being designed that do not meet the needs of women.
E. Children would be more likely to find and enjoy computer games filled with less blood and killing.
F. It matters a lot that the inventors, designers and creators of computer technology are mostly men and boys.
