Some Favorite European Attractions for Chinese Tourists
Bicester Village
The outskirts of the Oxfordshire town is the second most visited UK attraction for Chinese tourists — after Buckingham Palace Three in four Chinese visitors head to Bicester aided by Mandarin signs and announcements at London Marylebone; others travel by tour bus.
King’ s College, Cambridge
A famous tree — for Chinese people at least — can be found in King ‘ s College, Cambridge. The willow, ignored by most, is mentioned in a much - loved poem by Xu Zhimo, “Taking Leave of Cam - bridge Again.” Xu spent a year studying at King’s College , where he was entranced (使入迷) by the works of Keats and Shelley , before returning to China to lead its modern poetry movement . Xu died at the age of just 34 in a plane crash and the willow is now considered by his fans to be a mark. A memorial stone can be found beside the tree—an essential spot for Chinese tourists to take a photo.
Outletcity
Germany’s answer to Bicester Village is Outletcity in Metzingen, the town in Baden - Wurttem - berg, close to Frankfurt, where Hugo Boss was founded. It has little to attract anyone beyond scores of factories. Hugo Boss was the first, but Prada, Nike, Burberry, Armani and Gucci have since followed suit.
Bonn
The former West German capital is another popular port of all. Chinese people love classical music— particularly Beethoven— making his birthplace an obvious highlight of any trip to Europe. The city’s tourist board offers maps in three foreign languages: English, Chinese and Japanese.
Verona
Both British and Chinese travellers like Venice, Rome and Florence — but Verona typically appears higher on the wish lists of China ‘ s tourists. That’s because of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. The play is popular on UK shores, of course, but the love is doubled in China as it was among the first of the Shakespeare’s works to be translated into Mandarin, while its plot is similar to a famous Chinese folk tale, The Butter fly Lovers.
1. ________ is the first most visited UK attraction for Chinese tourists.
A. Buckingham Palace B. Bicester Village
C. London Marylebone D. The Shakespeare’s birthplace
2. According to the text, which part in Germany is equal to Bicester Village in the UK
A. Outletcity. B. Bonn. C. Frankfurt. D. Berlin.
3. ________ have something to do with Chinese literature.
A. King’ s College, Cambridge and Bonn
B. Bonn Bicester and Village
C. King’ s College, Cambridge and Verona
D. Outletcity and Verona
【答案】1. A 2. A 3. C

In the past year, Jeanne Raitt has had many roles while working with medical students at the KU School of Medicine-Wichita. She’s been the mom of a 5-year-old son with a serious illness, a patient relying on pain medication, and the daughter of a woman diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.
Raitt is among 85 Wichitans who participate in the school’s standardized patient program. She and others in the program have been trained by staff at the Wichita campus’ standardized patient center to role-play patients or family members. The sessions enable students to practice their skills in taking medical histories, communication, interpersonal relationships, and their ability to handle sensitive issues and embarrassing situations.
“We provide a safe environment for students to practice their clinical skills before they see actual patients,” explains Jennifer Brantley, assistant director of the standardized patient center.
Take the case of 55-year-old Ellen Humphries, a college professor who is being seen for abdominal (腹部的)pain. After an exam, students and professors discuss how to treat someone like Ellen, who is educated, well-known in the community, and who isn’t willing to stick to medical recommendations.
“This is a great way to give medical students hands-on learning and training,” says Raitt. “I love watching how students learn about the variety of the cases and seeing how willing they are to accept feedback from us. Plus, it’s a bonus to get a little checkup now and then.”
For Natashia Gafford, being a standardized patient has provided her with reassurance that future doctors will be able to handle different situations. Gafford, who is the mother of six boys, particularly likes it when her role-playing corresponds with real-life issues she can relate to, such as advocating for her children’s health. “It puts my mind at ease as a parent to know that doctors will learn how to take parents into consideration,” she says.
4. What did Raitt experience last year
A. She took part in a medical program.
B. Her son suffered from a serious illness.
C. She relied on pain killer to relieve pain.
D. Her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.
5. What is right about Humphries
A. She suffered from very rare abdominal pain.
B. She refuses to follow doctors’ advice.
C. She is a well-educated doctor herself.
D. She enjoys a not good reputation in her neighborhood.
6. What does Gafford say about her role-playing experience
A. It arouses her interest in medicine.
B. It builds her confidence in doctors.
C. It helps her recognize common childhood illnesses.
D. It offers her a bonus of regular checkups.
7. What can be the best title for the text
A. How to become a doctor: A step-by-step guide
B. Doctor-patient relationship: A technical model
C. Why sticking to medical recommendations matters
D. Standardized patients teach skills and sympathy
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了学校标准化患者计划,使学生能够练习他们的病历记录、沟通、人际关系以及处理敏感问题和尴尬情况的能力。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Raitt is among 85 Wichitans who participate in the school's standardized patient program.(瑞特是85名参加该校标准化病人项目的威奇托人之一)”可知,瑞特去年参加了一个医学项目。故选A项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段中“After an exam, students and professors discuss how to treat someone like Ellen, who is educated, well-known in the community, and who isn’t willing to stick to medical recommendations.(在一次考试后,学生和教授们讨论如何对待像艾伦这样的人,她受过良好的教育,在社区里很有名,而且不愿意坚持医学建议)”可知, Humphries拒绝听从医生的建议。故选B项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“For Natashia Gafford, being a standardized patient has provided her with reassurance that future doctors will be able to handle different situations.(对娜塔莎·加福德来说,成为一名标准的病人让她确信未来的医生将能够处理不同的情况)”可推知,加福德对她的角色扮演经历的评价是:这建立了她对医生的信心。故选B项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。分析全文内容可知,文章主要介绍了学校标准化患者计划,珍妮·雷特和其他参与该项目的人员在威奇托校区的标准化患者中心接受了角色扮演患者或家庭成员的培训。这使学生能够练习他们的病历记录、沟通、人际关系以及处理敏感问题和尴尬情况的能力。所以D项“标准化的病人传授技能和同情心”能概括文章内容,适合用作文章标题。故选D项。
C
Heat can kill. It lowers a worker’s ability to concentrate and leads to notable increases in workplace injuries, research suggests.
Yet, for reasons including financial need, workplace pressure and a lack of awareness of the health impacts of high temperatures, many people continue to work past their heat tolerance. Outdoor workers, notably those within the construction and agricultural industry, are the most affected by rising heat. Even the fittest people in the world are impressionable like the Olympic athletes collapsing in the baking heat of Tokyo.
There are some easy ways to reduce the risk of heat exhaustion (热衰竭). Optimizing work hours to avoid workers being out when the sun is at its hottest may have the greatest effect on employee health.
Individualized, wearable sensors could be a useful tool for determining likely heat exhaustion. Early adoption of these devices would be a win-win, according to Dr Jennifer Runkle, an environmental epidemiologist (流行病学家): boosting productivity and reducing injury “while ensuring the health and safety of an ageing workforce and reducing the risk of heat exhaustion”.
Wider take-up of wearable heat sensors by employees, employers and healthcare providers would also help overcome gaps in heat awareness.
“One important finding we discovered in our research with outdoor workers is that there was a mismatch between workers ability to sense heat risk and their actual exposure to extreme heat gained by wearables” , said Dr Runkle.
Another aid could be wearable cooling technology, but such devices are limited in availability. One such device is Sony’s Reon Pocket 2, which it launched in April. A wearable cooling or warming device worn inside clothing, it uses electrical conductors that transfer (转移) heat when electricity is run through them.
There are promising examples of companies taking more responsibility for protecting workers from extreme heat, such as managers of bus drivers in Jinan, China. Responsible employers should be providing drinks and shaded rest areas to outdoor workers.
8. What does the underlined word “impressionable” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Highly impressive. B. Slightly sensible. C. Easily influenced. D. Hardly evaluated.
9. What did Dr Runkle find out
A. The workforce was ageing rapidly.
B. Wearable heat sensors lacked great accuracy.
C. Employers attached little importance to heat exhaustion.
D. Workers’ heat awareness and actual heat were different.
10. Why are bus drivers in Jinan mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To stress the popularity of Reon Pocket 2.
B. To show their employers are responsible.
C. To reveal they are very tolerant of extreme heat.
D. To describe their unbearable pressure of work.
11. What can be the best title for the text
A. Adjustments to Work Hours Can Be Life-saving.
B. Campaigners Are Calling for Workplace Protection.
C. How Can New Technology Protect Outdoor Workers
D. How Were Body Temperature Monitors Invented
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是减少户外工作的员工中暑风险的两种新技术。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段的“Outdoor workers, notably those within the construction and agricultural industry, are the most affected by rising heat.(户外工作人员,尤其是建筑业和农业行业的工作人员,受高温影响最大。)”可知,划线词所在句子的意思是“即使是世界上最健康的人也容易受影响,就像奥运会运动员在东京的高温中倒下一样”,划线词impressionable的意思是“容易受影响”,和Easily influenced意思相近,故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段的““One important finding we discovered in our research with outdoor workers is that there was a mismatch between workers ability to sense heat risk and their actual exposure to extreme heat gained by wearables” , said Dr Runkle.(朗克尔博士说:“我们在对户外工作者的研究中的一个重要发现是,工作者感知热风险的能力与他们实际接触到的可穿戴设备带来的极端高温之间存在不匹配。”)”可知,Dr Runkle发现工人的热意识与实际热情况不同。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“There are promising examples of companies taking more responsibility for protecting workers from extreme heat, such as managers of bus drivers in Jinan, China.(在保护员工免受酷暑伤害方面,有一些公司承担更多责任的例子,比如中国济南公交车司机的管理人员。)”可知,最后一段提到济南的公交车司机是为了显示他们的雇主是负责任的。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第四段的“Individualized, wearable sensors could be a useful tool for determining likely heat exhaustion.(个性化的可穿戴传感器可能是确定可能的中暑衰竭的有用工具。)”和倒数第二段的“Another aid could be wearable cooling technology, but such devices are limited in availability.(另一种帮助可能是可穿戴冷却技术,但这种设备的可用性有限。)”可知,本文主要讲的是减少户外工作的员工中暑风险的两种新技术,因此最好的标题是C选项“How Can New Technology Protect Outdoor Workers (新技术如何保护户外工作者?)”,故选C。
D
Losing your ability to think and remember is pretty frightening. We know the risk of dementia (痴呆症) increases with age. But if you have memory slips, you probably needn’t worry. There are pretty clear differences between signs of dementia and age- related memory loss.
After age 50, it’s quite common to have trouble remembering the names of people, places and things quickly, says Dr. Kirk Daffner of Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.
The brain ages just like the rest of the body. Certain parts become smaller, especially areas in the brain that are important to learning, memory and planning. Changes in brain cells can affect communication between different regions of the brain. And blood flow can be reduced as blood vessels narrow.
Forgetting the name of an actor in a favorite movie, for example, is nothing to worry about. But if you forget the plot of the movie or don’t remember even seeing it, that’s far more concerning, Daffner says.
When you forget entire experiences, he says, that’s “a red flag that something more serious may be involved”. Forgetting how to operate a familiar object like a microwave oven, or forgetting how to drive to the house of a friend you’ve visited many times before can also be signs of something going wrong.
But even then, Daffner says, people shouldn’t panic. There are many things that can cause confusion and memory loss, including health problems like temporary stoppage of breathing during sleep, high blood pressure, or depression, as well as medications (药物) like antidepressants.
You don’t have to figure this out on your own. Daffner suggests going to your doctor to check on medications, health problems and other issues that could be affecting memory. And the best defense against memory loss is to try to prevent it by building up your brain’s cognitive (认知的) reserve, Daffner says.
“Read books, go to movies, take on new hobbies or activities that force one to think in novel ways.” he says. In other words, keep your brain busy and working. And also get physically active, because exercise is a widely known to boost the brain.
12. Which memory-related symptom should people take seriously
A. Totally forgetting how to do one’s daily routines.
B. Inability to recall details of one’s life experiences.
C. Failure to remember the names of movies or actors.
D. Occasionally confusing the addresses of one’s friends.
13. What should people do when signs of serious memory loss show up
A. Check the brain’s cognitive reserve.
B. Stop medications affecting memory.
C. Turn to a professional for assistance.
D. Exercise to improve their well being.
14. What is Dr. Daffner’s advice for fight against memory loss
A. Having regular physical and mental checkups.
B. Taking medicine that helps boost one’s brain.
C. Engaging in known memory repair activities.
D. Staying active both physically and mentally.
15. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “boost” in the last paragraph
A. Reduce. B. Benefit. C. Increase. D. Depress.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要描述了痴呆的风险随着年龄的增加而增加,并提出了预防痴呆症的建议。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第五段“When you forget entire experiences, he says, that’s “a red flag that something more serious may be involved”. Forgetting how to operate a familiar object like a microwave oven, or forgetting how to drive to the house of a friend you’ve visited many times before can also be signs of something going wrong.”(他说,当你忘记整个经历时,这是“一个危险信号,可能涉及到更严重的事情”。忘记如何操作一个熟悉的东西,比如微波炉,或者忘记如何开车去你以前去过很多次的朋友家,也可能是出了问题的迹象。)可知,人们对完全忘了如何做一天的日常工作的症状应该认真对待。故选A项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“Daffner suggests going to your doctor to check on medications, health problems and other issues that could be affecting memory.”(Daffner 建议去看医生,检查药物、健康问题和其他可能影响记忆的问题。)可知,当出现严重失忆的迹象时,人们应该向专业人士寻求帮助。故选C项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“In other words, keep your brain busy and working. And also get physically active, ”(换句话说,让你的大脑忙碌起来。同时也要锻炼身体,)可知,Dr. Daffner的建议是保持身体和精神上的活跃。故选D项。
【15题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段中““Read books, go to movies, take on new hobbies or activities that force one to think in novel ways.” he says. In other words, keep your brain busy and working. And also get physically active, because exercise is a widely known to boost the brain.”(读书、看电影、培养新的爱好或活动,这些都能促使你以新颖的方式思考。他说。换句话说,让你的大脑保持忙碌和工作。同时也要积极锻炼身体,因为众所周知,锻炼可以boost大脑。)可知,身心锻炼有益大脑,推测划线单词与B项benefit“对……有益”意义相近。故选B项。

You form an impression ofa person based on his postures, gestures and facial expressions, as soon as you meet, or even see him. This is why it is important to make a good first impression on the person who will be interviewing you. Within the first 60 seconds of meeting you, the interviewer will have formed an impression about what type of person you are and what kind of employee you would become, and ____16____. Here are some tips to make that impression a good one.

Another important issue is eye contact. Looking someone in the eye shows confidence in yourself and trust’in the other person. However, don’t overdo it, as too much eve contact or staring will make the other person uncomfortable. Use more eye contact when listening than when talking, and when you look away, look down. ______20______.

47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节和给定段落开头语进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
When I was six years old, I visited my grandfather’s farm in Kansas and he sent me into the woods to gather pecans (胡桃) for us to enjoy later. The pecans were about the size of a man’s thumbnail and just about the tastiest snack I’d ever had.
However, pecan picking was really tiring and my little bucket was only half full after working hard for a long time. I thought I wouldn’t let Grandpa down. Just then something caught my eye. A large brown squirrel was a few feet away. I watched as he picked up a pecan, hurried to a tree, jumped up to the trunk and disappeared in a large hole. A moment later the squirrel popped back out and climbed down to the ground to pick up another nut. Once again, he took the pecan back to his hiding place inside the hollow of the tree.
Not so secret anymore, I thought. I dashed over to the tree and looked into the hole. It was filled with pecans! Golden pecans were right there for taking. This was my chance. Handful by handful, I scooped all of those pecans into my bucket. Now it was almost full! I was so proud of myself that I couldn’t wait to show Grandpa all the pecans.
I ran back and shouted, “Look at all the pecans!” He looked into the bucket and asked, “Well, well, how did you find so many ” I told him how I’d followed the squirrel and taken the pecans from his hiding place.
Grandpa congratulated me on how smart I’d been in observing the squirrel and his habits. Then he did something that surprised me. He handed the bucket back to me and put his arm gently around my shoulders.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;

Paragraph 1:
“That squirrel worked very hard to gather his winter supply of food,” he said.

Paragraph 2:
I picked up that little bucket full of pecans and carried it back to the tree.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version
“That squirrel worked very hard to gather his winter supply of food,” he said. “Now that all of his pecans are gone, don’t you think that little squirrel will be hungry when it gets cold ” Grandpa asked me. “I didn’t think about that,” I murmured with shame, blood rushing to my face. Grandpa told me seriously that a good man should never take advantage of someone else’s hard work, even the squirrel’s. I drooped my head, feeling as hollow as that old tree.The image of that starving squirrel wouldn't leave my mind. There was only one thing I could do.
I picked up that little bucket full of pecans and carried it back to the tree. Lifting the bucket up, I poured all of the nuts back into the hole, refilling it with not only all of the squirrel’s pecans but also the ones I had collected on my own. I breathed a sigh of relief and returned home with the empty bucket. I didn’t eat any of the sweet pecans that night, but I had something much more filling, which was the satisfaction of knowing I had done just the right thing.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者六岁那年去爷爷农场采摘胡桃发生的事情。在采摘的过程中,作者发现了一只松鼠,它的窝内储存了很多胡桃。当作者把松鼠的胡桃全部拿走展示给爷爷的时候,爷爷的话让作者明白到:一个好人永远不应该占别人的便宜,即使是松鼠。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“爷爷说,那只松鼠非常努力地收集冬天的食物。”可知,第一段可描写爷爷责备了作者,表达作者羞愧的情绪,同时也要阐述爷爷给作者讲述的道理:一个好人永远不应该占别人的便宜,即使是松鼠。

Some Favorite European Attractions for Chinese Tourists
Bicester Village
The outskirts of the Oxfordshire town is the second most visited UK attraction for Chinese tourists — after Buckingham Palace. Three in four Chinese visitors head to Bicester aided by Mandarin signs and announcements at London Marylebone; others travel by tour bus.
King’ s College, Cambridge
A famous tree — for Chinese people at least — can be found in King ‘ s College, Cambridge. The willow, ignored by most, is mentioned in a much - loved poem by Xu Zhimo, “Taking Leave of Cam - bridge Again.” Xu spent a year studying at King’s College , where he was entranced (使入迷) by the works of Keats and Shelley , before returning to China to lead its modern poetry movement . Xu died at the age of just 34 in a plane crash and the willow is now considered by his fans to be a mark. A memorial stone can be found beside the tree—an essential spot for Chinese tourists to take a photo.
Outletcity
Germany’s answer to Bicester Village is Outletcity in Metzingen, the town in Baden - Wurttem - berg, close to Frankfurt, where Hugo Boss was founded. It has little to attract anyone beyond scores of factories. Hugo Boss was the first, but Prada, Nike, Burberry, Armani and Gucci have since followed suit.
Bonn
The former West German capital is another popular port of all. Chinese people love classical music— particularly Beethoven— making his birthplace an obvious highlight of any trip to Europe. The city’s tourist board offers maps in three foreign languages: English, Chinese and Japanese.
Verona
Both British and Chinese travellers like Venice, Rome and Florence — but Verona typically appears higher on the wish lists of China ‘ s tourists. That’s because of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. The play is popular on UK shores, of course, but the love is doubled in China as it was among the first of the Shakespeare’s works to be translated into Mandarin, while its plot is similar to a famous Chinese folk tale, The Butter fly Lovers.
1. ________ is the first most visited UK attraction for Chinese tourists.
A. Buckingham Palace B. Bicester Village
C. London Marylebone D. The Shakespeare’s birthplace
2. According to the text, which part in Germany is equal to Bicester Village in the UK
A. Outletcity. B. Bonn. C. Frankfurt. D. Berlin.
3. ________ have something to do with Chinese literature.
A. King’ s College, Cambridge and Bonn
B. Bonn Bicester and Village
C. King’ s College, Cambridge and Verona
D. Outletcity and Verona

In the past year, Jeanne Raitt has had many roles while working with medical students at the KU School of Medicine-Wichita. She’s been the mom of a 5-year-old son with a serious illness, a patient relying on pain medication, and the daughter of a woman diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.
Raitt is among 85 Wichitans who participate in the school’s standardized patient program. She and others in the program have been trained by staff at the Wichita campus’ standardized patient center to role-play patients or family members. The sessions enable students to practice their skills in taking medical histories, communication, interpersonal relationships, and their ability to handle sensitive issues and embarrassing situations.
“We provide a safe environment for students to practice their clinical skills before they see actual patients,” explains Jennifer Brantley, assistant director of the standardized patient center.
Take the case of 55-year-old Ellen Humphries, a college professor who is being seen for abdominal (腹部的)pain. After an exam, students and professors discuss how to treat someone like Ellen, who is educated, well-known in the community, and who isn’t willing to stick to medical recommendations.
“This is a great way to give medical students hands-on learning and training,” says Raitt. “I love watching how students learn about the variety of the cases and seeing how willing they are to accept feedback from us. Plus, it’s a bonus to get a little checkup now and then.”
For Natashia Gafford, being a standardized patient has provided her with reassurance that future doctors will be able to handle different situations. Gafford, who is the mother of six boys, particularly likes it when her role-playing corresponds with real-life issues she can relate to, such as advocating for her children’s health. “It puts my mind at ease as a parent to know that doctors will learn how to take parents into consideration,” she says.
4. What did Raitt experience last year
A. She took part in a medical program.
B. Her son suffered from a serious illness.
C. She relied on pain killer to relieve pain.
D. Her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.
5. What is right about Humphries
A. She suffered from very rare abdominal pain.
B. She refuses to follow doctors’ advice.
C. She is a well-educated doctor herself.
D. She enjoys a not good reputation in her neighborhood.
6. What does Gafford say about her role-playing experience
A. It arouses her interest in medicine.
B. It builds her confidence in doctors.
C. It helps her recognize common childhood illnesses.
D. It offers her a bonus of regular checkups.
7. What can be the best title for the text
A. How to become a doctor: A step-by-step guide
B. Doctor-patient relationship: A technical model
C. Why sticking to medical recommendations matters
D. Standardized patients teach skills and sympathy
C
Heat can kill. It lowers a worker’s ability to concentrate and leads to notable increases in workplace injuries, research suggests.
Yet, for reasons including financial need, workplace pressure and a lack of awareness of the health impacts of high temperatures, many people continue to work past their heat tolerance. Outdoor workers, notably those within the construction and agricultural industry, are the most affected by rising heat. Even the fittest people in the world are impressionable like the Olympic athletes collapsing in the baking heat of Tokyo.
There are some easy ways to reduce the risk of heat exhaustion (热衰竭). Optimizing work hours to avoid workers being out when the sun is at its hottest may have the greatest effect on employee health.
Individualized, wearable sensors could be a useful tool for determining likely heat exhaustion. Early adoption of these devices would be a win-win, according to Dr Jennifer Runkle, an environmental epidemiologist (流行病学家): boosting productivity and reducing injury “while ensuring the health and safety of an ageing workforce and reducing the risk of heat exhaustion”.
Wider take-up of wearable heat sensors by employees, employers and healthcare providers would also help overcome gaps in heat awareness.
“One important finding we discovered in our research with outdoor workers is that there was a mismatch between workers ability to sense heat risk and their actual exposure to extreme heat gained by wearables” , said Dr Runkle.
Another aid could be wearable cooling technology, but such devices are limited in availability. One such device is Sony’s Reon Pocket 2, which it launched in April. A wearable cooling or warming device worn inside clothing, it uses electrical conductors that transfer (转移) heat when electricity is run through them.
There are promising examples of companies taking more responsibility for protecting workers from extreme heat, such as managers of bus drivers in Jinan, China. Responsible employers should be providing drinks and shaded rest areas to outdoor workers.
8. What does the underlined word “impressionable” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Highly impressive. B. Slightly sensible. C. Easily influenced. D. Hardly evaluated.
9. What did Dr Runkle find out
A. The workforce was ageing rapidly.
B Wearable heat sensors lacked great accuracy.
C. Employers attached little importance to heat exhaustion.
D. Workers’ heat awareness and actual heat were different.
10. Why are bus drivers in Jinan mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To stress the popularity of Reon Pocket 2.
B. To show their employers are responsible.
C. To reveal they are very tolerant of extreme heat.
D. To describe their unbearable pressure of work.
11. What can be the best title for the text
A. Adjustments to Work Hours Can Be Life-saving.
B. Campaigners Are Calling for Workplace Protection.
C. How Can New Technology Protect Outdoor Workers
D. How Were Body Temperature Monitors Invented
D
Losing your ability to think and remember is pretty frightening. We know the risk of dementia (痴呆症) increases with age. But if you have memory slips, you probably needn’t worry. There are pretty clear differences between signs of dementia and age- related memory loss.
After age 50, it’s quite common to have trouble remembering the names of people, places and things quickly, says Dr. Kirk Daffner of Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.
The brain ages just like the rest of the body. Certain parts become smaller, especially areas in the brain that are important to learning, memory and planning. Changes in brain cells can affect communication between different regions of the brain. And blood flow can be reduced as blood vessels narrow.
Forgetting the name of an actor in a favorite movie, for example, is nothing to worry about. But if you forget the plot of the movie or don’t remember even seeing it, that’s far more concerning, Daffner says.
When you forget entire experiences, he says, that’s “a red flag that something more serious may be involved”. Forgetting how to operate a familiar object like a microwave oven, or forgetting how to drive to the house of a friend you’ve visited many times before can also be signs of something going wrong.
But even then, Daffner says, people shouldn’t panic. There are many things that can cause confusion and memory loss, including health problems like temporary stoppage of breathing during sleep, high blood pressure, or depression, as well as medications (药物) like antidepressants.
You don’t have to figure this out on your own. Daffner suggests going to your doctor to check on medications, health problems and other issues that could be affecting memory. And the best defense against memory loss is to try to prevent it by building up your brain’s cognitive (认知的) reserve, Daffner says.
“Read books, go to movies, take on new hobbies or activities that force one to think in novel ways.” he says. In other words, keep your brain busy and working. And also get physically active, because exercise is a widely known to boost the brain.

When I was six years old, I visited my grandfather’s farm in Kansas and he sent me into the woods to gather pecans (胡桃) for us to enjoy later. The pecans were about the size of a man’s thumbnail and just about the tastiest snack I’d ever had.
However, pecan picking was really tiring and my little bucket was only half full after working hard for a long time. I thought I wouldn’t let Grandpa down. Just then something caught my eye. A large brown squirrel was a few feet away. I watched as he picked up a pecan, hurried to a tree, jumped up to the trunk and disappeared in a large hole. A moment later the squirrel popped back out and climbed down to the ground to pick up another nut. Once again, he took the pecan back to his hiding place inside the hollow of the tree.
Not so secret anymore, I thought. I dashed over to the tree and looked into the hole. It was filled with pecans! Golden pecans were right there for taking. This was my chance. Handful by handful, I scooped all of those pecans into my bucket. Now it was almost full! I was so proud of myself that I couldn’t wait to show Grandpa all the pecans.
I ran back and shouted, “Look at all the pecans!” He looked into the bucket and asked, “Well, well, how did you find so many ” I told him how I’d followed the squirrel and taken the pecans from his hiding place.
Grandpa congratulated me on how smart I’d been in observing the squirrel and his habits. Then he did something that surprised me. He handed the bucket back to me and put his arm gently around my shoulders.
