8、brochure.DAn online journal.The older I get, the more I understand how my teachers have transformed my life. On a recent Sunday afternoon, I went to see Mr. C at Roxbury Park in Beverly Hills. His love of life has not dimmed despite the fact that his legs no longer work like they used to. He visited
9、 some of his former students while he was in town. At Beverly Hills High School, Mr. C taught ancient history, coached football and golf, and risked his life teaching drivers training on Saturday mornings from 1964 to 1988. The gray and hobbled students lined up one after another to thank their favo
10、rite teacher. One called him a rock star. Another was grateful for helping him when he couldnt say so. It was a beautiful tribute, especially in these times of catastrophic teacher shortages. Spending that Sunday in the park with Mr. C was nothing short of magic. It was a reminder of all that is pro
11、mising and possible in public education, including a teacher whose rare emotional honesty could be appreciated and honored decades later. It also brought to mind Maya Angelous saying “People will forget what you said and did, but never forget how you make them feel.” He made me and others in the par
12、k feel heard and seen.Mr. C changed my perception of myself. Rather than seeing myself as a loser cheerleader who couldnt compete with the smart kids, I realized how much I loved learning. His history class was so interesting. In his classes about the Persians, Greeks, and Romans, extra credits can
13、be earned for creativity. During earthquake drills, we counted on Mr. C to scream his head off in mock terror. It should come as little surprise that Id value the role of teachers in my life. Both of my parents taught; so did my siblings, aunts, uncles and cousins. I, too, have become a teacher and
14、I try to follow in Mr. Cs footsteps. Some days, I fantasize what it would be like to go on a teacher tour, reaching out to my mentors to express my deep gratitude for all theyve given me. Seeing Mr. C sparked that fantasy again. When I finally worked up my courage to thank him, knowing a floodgate o

17、 does the use of plastic water bottles hurt your wallet, it also increases pollution and wastes energy and water. Only 23% of all plastic in America ends up in a recycling bin, meaning over $ 1 billion worth of plastic is treated as rubbish a year. Recently, Skipping Rocks Lab has invented a kind of
18、 water bottle called Ooho.It is a convenient, clear water bottle that can either be drunken or eaten. To drink it, you can either peel off the membrane(薄膜) or tear a hole in the membrane with your teeth to pour the water into your mouth. To eat it, you simply put the whole bottle in your mouth. One
19、problem the scientists have run into is how to ship large amounts of Ooho bubbles(水泡) without arriving with a very wet truck. However, they have attempted to package units of individual bubbles together inside a larger and thicker membrane. It is targeting large outdoor events, such as marathons, mu
20、sic festivals, and sporting events, where tons of plastic bottles are used, and frequently left behind as litter. And too much plastic is sure to do harm to the environment, which could account for their purpose of such a new invention.The team has been working for the past two years to develop the
21、technology and materials needed to produce Ooho; they have recently applied a patent for their new advancements. The price for an individual bubble or a unit of bubbles has not been set yet, but they cost about two cents to create a unit, which is cheaper than plastic bottles. It has appeared at eve
22、nts in London, San Francisco, Boston, at conferences, festivals, and so on.Ooho is catching many peoples attention and has raised over $ 1 million and gained 1,000 investors in only three days. It is mostly being sold at events at the moment to keep the consumers interest while the production machin
23、e is getting up and running. It is quickly making a rise,so keep an eye out this year for these bottles of the future.8How is most plastic dealt with in America?AIts sold.BIts recycled.CIts buried.DIts wasted.9Why did the team invent Ooho?ATo make a profit for a company.BTo protect the environtnent.
24、CTo make people eat as they drink.DTo reduce the cost of plastic bottle.10What can we infer about Ooho from the text?AIt is easy and safe to ship it in large amounts.BIt has become popular since it began to be sold.CIt might be sold at a lower price than plastic bottles.DIt cost the team a lot of mo
25、ney to develop the technology.11What does the author really want to say in the last paragraph?AOoho is to be a success in the future.BOoho is being supported by smart people.COoho is taking the place of plastic bottles now.DOoho is being produced to attract more investors.GPS has completely transfor
26、med how we get around. But other animals have long had their navigation (领航) systems built right in.“We know their eyes are quite sensitive to polarized (偏振的) light and the sky has a particular pattern of polarized light relative to the position of the sun,” Barbara Webb, a researcher at the Univers
27、ity of Edinburgh, says.You can see polarized light firsthand if you take a pair of polarized sunglasses and spin them against the sky-the light passing through the glasses changes. Webb says the insects have polarization like that built into their many eyes. “You can think of it as having lots of su
28、nglasses pointing in different directions.”But Webb was curious whether theres really enough information in the sky to give insects an accurate sense of direction. So her team built a sensor (传感器) modeled after a desert ant eye and put it under artificial light meant to simulate the sky. They then p
29、ut that sensor into a model meant to model the brains of desert ants and other insects. And they found that with the insects sensing and processing equipment, they can likely sense direction down to just a couple degrees of error.A system based on that of insects could someday be a cheap, low-energy
30、 choice to GPS. Insects have very tiny brains. A brain the size of a pinhead thats using hardly any energy. And yet theyre still able to navigate better than we can with GPS, which is surprising. Webb is now working on building a robot that can use light to get its directions.12What can we learn fro
31、m the text?AGPS is not accurate enough.BInsects have better eyes than humans.CLight changes passing through polarized sunglasses.DInsects have tiny brains that use no energy.13What does the underlined word “simulate” in paragraph 4 probably mean?APretend.BCover.CBlock.DSee.14What did Webbs research
32、find?AInsects cant find their ways during nights.BInsects can find directions with little mistakes.CInsects always make mistakes finding directions.DInsects have sensing and processing equipment in their eyes.15Which of the following can best describe insects navigation ability?ADisappointing.BInter

These include paint, hair, building materials, bacteria, viruses, insect body parts, etc.That list is based
34、 on the Canadian House Dust Study, in which researchers collected dust samples from 1,025 Canadian homes. The proportions(比例)of the components vary from household to household. A house near a busy road, for example, is likely to harbor a high level of outdoor pollutants from car exhaust(废气). _17_.Th
