Cooper said, “The only thing that I was worried about: ‘Is this thing going to work?’ And it did. At the time, we had no way of knowing this was an 6 moment in history.” Today, the phone 7 us to do many things. Cooper said the progress of cellphones is sure to continue long into the future.

One 6 to solve the problem was a “hybrid” car (混合动力车), one that ran partly on gasoline and partly on electricity. Hybrid cars became popular in the 2000s because gasoline prices went up while prices of hybrid cars went 7 . An all-electric car uses no gasoline. The problem, however, is that car batteries (电池) need to be recharged (再充电). That makes it difficult to go for 8 journeys with electric cars. Many people are not pleased with it.

Two thirds of it is the Arctic Ocean. In winter, it is completely covered with 1 . In summer, nearly 50 percent of the sea is ice. It’s also home to about 4 million 2 , a group of whom are Inuit (因纽特人). Jim is an Inuit boy. At 6:30 a.m., he wakes up and 3 go to school in his fur coat. It keeps him 4 in the freezing weather. Half an hour 5 , he gets to school on a ski or snowmobile. At 11:30 a. m., it’s time for 6 . There’s fish and other meat in his lunchbox. He sometimes eats them uncooked.

Sometimes he stays in an ice house called igloo (冰屋). It looks cold but it’s warm inside. Many local people live in houses 9 wood. The Inuit mainly make a living by hunting and fishing.

It’s a traditional 171 that a host often welcomes his guests by serving them a cup of tea. In Chinese tea culture, there are some 1 to follow which we call tea manners, just like table manners. First, the guests are supposed to be seated in order of importance from the left-hand side of the host. It 2 that older and superior (地位高的) guests are usually seated first. Don’t sit face to face with the host because it is considered 3 . If it is inevitable (不可避免的), children should take this seat. Second, when being served with tea, guests should receive the tea cup with 4 hands. Don’t forget to 176 your thanks to the host. In China, finger tapping (敲) is a 5 way to give silent thanks to the person pouring tea for you. Do you know 6 to do it? Just tap the table three times with two fingers (sometimes, one or five) each time your cup is 7 tea by another person.

I remember one day when we were travelling on a bus and 1 sat down while other people were standing. My mother shouted at me “Get up immediately! You have young legs and you don’t need to sit down.” At the time I felt embarrassed about being told off 2 , but now I understand. I think children nowadays have lost that respect and it really makes me angry if I see children sitting down while 3 people are standing. One area in which we had a lot of rules was table 4 . For example, we weren’t allowed to start our meal 5 the oldest person had started. We had to say “thank you” when our food was 6 , and eat everything on our plates before we could leave the table. We couldn’t make any noise when eating. Worse than that, we were only 7 to have sweets at the weekend, as a special treat if we had been good. Although my upbringing (养育) was perhaps a bit 8 compared with modern children, I’m very thankful to my parents for giving me a clear 9 in life. Even though I was sometimes punished, I think it has made me a better person. In my view, children need clear rules, but more than that they need to learn how to get on with 10 people, and realize they are not the center of the world. 1．A．they B．you C．I D．she 2．A．in order B．in public C．in surprise D．in person 3．A．older B．richer C．taller D．heavier 4．A．designs B．manners C．materials D．sizes 5．A．if B．because C．until D．though 6．A．cooked B．eaten C．prepared D．served 7．A．allowed B．forced C．warned D．advised 8．A．simple B．interesting C．normal D．strict 9．A．direction B．answer C．introduction D．plan 10．A．some B．other C．few D．several Passage 20 The willow branch (柳树枝) is a part of the willow tree. In 1 China, willow branches were often used as a parting gift between friends and family members. Even today, willow branches are 2 in many cases as a symbol of saying goodbye. Do you know 3 ? One reason is that willow trees are strong. They can live 4 in any place, wet or dry, north or south. Because of this, giving a willow branch to say goodbye to loved ones is a way to tell them you hope they will 5 their new living environment. For another reason, the pronunciation for the willow tree “liu (柳)” is 6 to the character “liu (留)” in Chinese, which means inviting someone to stay—only the tones are different. So 7 a willow branch means asking the other party to live for a longer time, 8 we know that they must leave. It’s said that this 9 became popular during the Han Dynasty. At that time, Baqiao (灞桥), a bridge in Chang’an, today’s Xi’an, was a common place to say goodbye.

In order to solve it, he made “heated earmuffs” ! Bette Nesmith Graham was a typist (打字员), but she was not very good at typing. She often made mistakes in her work. To 3 her mistakes, she invented “Liquid Paper (修正液)”. It dried quickly and made her able to write on top of it — 4 this time. To invent something isn’t necessarily difficult. The important thing is that it works and is 5 . Little Katie Harding, 5 years old, didn’t like walking to the school bus on 6 and rainy winter mornings. She kept walking into muddy puddles (泥坑) because she couldn’t see them, and so did her brother, who always walked with her and held the 7 over them. Katie’s simple but wonderful 8 was to fasten (使固定) a flashlight to the umbrella. The “muddy puddle spotter” was born.

You have young legs and you don’t need to sit down.” At the time I felt embarrassed about being told off 2 , but now I understand. I think children nowadays have lost that respect and it really makes me angry if I see children sitting down while 3 people are standing. One area in which we had a lot of rules was table 4 . For example, we weren’t allowed to start our meal 5 the oldest person had started. We had to say “thank you” when our food was 6 , and eat everything on our plates before we could leave the table.

Although my upbringing (养育) was perhaps a bit 8 compared with modern children, I’m very thankful to my parents for giving me a clear 9 in life.
