#1: Rocket mail
In 1959, the US Postmaster General, Arthur Summerfield, predicted(预言)that guided missiles(导弹)would become the usual method for sending mail before a human reached the moon. We have email now, but still no rocket mail.
#2: Ape workers
Who needs robots when you could have monkeys? Glenn T. Seaborg, a Nobel prize-winning chemist, predicted in 1951 that by 2020, we’d keep apes that could drive cars and perform other
tasks for us.
#3: Nuclear (核)vacuums (真空吸尘器)
In 1955, Alex Lewyt, the president of a vacuum cleaner company, predicted that within 10 years nuclear power would run vacuums. What did he think people would do with the nuclear waste?
#4: Meals in a pill
In 1894, the chemist Marcellin Berthelot predicted that people of the future would get all the nutrition(营养)they needed in pill form. “Wheat fields are to disappear from the face of the Earth, because flour will no longer be produced from growing wheat, but made,” he said. While we still rely on farms for food, scientists have worked out how to make meat from plants and how to grow it from cells.
#5: Virtual reality everywhere
In 1999, the futurist Ray Kurzweil predicted that by 2019, we’d wear lenses or glasses that would project(投射)virtual images onto the real world. He also thought the glasses might display a complete virtual reality that we could touch and interact with. Virtual reality (VR)technology isn’t nearly this good yet. To be fair, Kurzweil correctly predicted that Al would beat humans at chess and that we’d switch to digital books and music and movies. So maybe realistic VR is just around the corner?
24. What can we learn from the article?

B. Glenn T. Seaborg thought apes were cleverer than robots and could do daily tasks for us.
C. According to Alex Lewyt, people would run out of coal to produce power in the future.
D. Marcellin Berthelot predicted that food in the future would be made in pill form.
25. What does the writer mean by saying “What did he think people would do with the nuclear waste?”
A. The idea of using nuclear power to run vacuums is not practical.
B. It was a creative idea to use nuclear power to run vacuums.
C. Nuclear power is of great importance to people’s daily life.
D. Alex Lewythas already found ways to deal with nuclear waste.
26. The article is mainly about .
A. some successful inventions in history B. five predictions about future technology
C. some developments about future technology D. predictions about the future of science fiction
C
Have you ever seen a poster for a product in a place you didn’t expect? Or have you ever been surprised by a group of strangers who suddenly started singing and dancing together to advertise a service? People in advertising call this “guerrilla marketing”. It’s a term that describes low-cost and unusual marketing strategies(策略)that catch people off guard.
Guerrilla marketing is different from traditional marketing because it doesn’t use typical marketing platforms like print, TV, or online advertising. It’s also a lot cheaper. It was first designed for small businesses with less money, but these days many large companies are trying this clever and affordable strategy.
Coca-Cola is one such company. It once placed a special vending machine on a college campus. If students bought a bottle of Coca-Cola from the machine, they got two extra bottles free of charge to give to their friends. Sometimes, a hand came out of the machine and gave customers flowers instead of an extra drink. People loved it! Coca-Cola filmed customers enjoying this special “happiness machine” and posted the video online. Many people watched the video and shared it with their friends, and the company enjoyed free publicity.
IKEA—one of the world’s largest furniture companies—also gave guerrilla marketing a try. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of its most popular bookcase, IKEA decided to try something different. It teamed up with a charity called the Australian Literacy and Numeracy Foundation to set up the world’s largest outdoor library. The location? On a beach! IKEA displayed its bookcases on Sydney’s Bondi Beach and filled them with over 6, 000 books. People got to see IKEA’s bookcase in use and find something interesting to read at the same time.
27. What is the writer’s purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To describe how successful guerrilla marketing is.
B. To show why guerrilla marketing is successful.
C. To show when guerrilla marketing began.
D. To explain what guerrilla marketing is.
28. The underlined phrase off guard means
A. not spending much money B. doing something unusual
C. not expecting a surprise D. waiting for something new
29. IKEA probably chose Bondi Bench to show its products because .
A. it was a future location for IKEA’s store B. it was an unusual place to see books
C. it was near a public library D. it was near an IKEA store
30. Why does the writer mention Cocu-Cola and IKEA?
A. They are both well-known companies around the world.
B. They both use traditional marketing strategics.
C. They both spend a lot in advertising their products.
D. They are both successful examples of guerrilla marketing,
D

How is your memory? If we can’t remember how to do something, we can’t survive. If you think about it, there is so much we have to remember —from where we left our car keys to how we walk. Maybe it’s not surprising that sometimes we forget things.
Scientists believe there are two levels of memory. One is short-term memory, which stays in your brain for only 15-30 seconds, for example, when you hear a song but can’t remember the words afterwards. The other level is long-term memory, which can be stored for days, months or even years.
There are many uses for memory. Motor-skill memory helps you remember how to ride a bike or other activities, which can be strong can be short or long term. Emotional memory makes you think of how you felt about something and can be strong and powerful. They are long term.
Memories can tell you the story of yourself. Information, such as which school you go to and who your friends are, is stored inside your brain, ready for when you need it. It’s much easier to remember all those facts, or formulas or whatever it is you’re learning if you have a good memory. Memories can also help you manage feelings. Heidi, 12, told The Week Junior, "If I miss seeing my granny and grandad, I remember staying with them in Devon. It makes me feel happy."
Our memory is amazing, but why do we still forget things? It’s possible we don’t always store information in our memory effectively. When we do store information, we often make connections with other things, which helps us recall it later. If you don’t have these connections, then it can be easier to forget. It is also possible that memories decay over time. As they have not been revisited, their biological trace ‘becomes weak.
However, forgetting is not always a bad thing! It would waste cognitive resources if we remembered every detail of the world around us. That’s something worth remembering.
