26、 Sundell Inc. said Monday that its new smart socks have completed the first test, bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the smart socks within the next year. This could be the perfect gift for the partner, who embarrasses you on the dance floor. Smart socks, which can teach to dance, may satisfy anyone with two left feet.
The socks have been developed as a running tool to help runners improve their skills. Thanks to the socks, users can accurately record not only how far and fast they run but also how well. It means the user maximizes their performance, and reduces damage to body and prevents hurt. The hi-tech socks are made of special fibers that watch the movements of your feet. They look, feel and can be washed like normal clothes.
Sensors record each movement and send it by an ankle transmitter (脚踝发射器) to a smart phone. Then a “virtual coach” application shows the information and can tell the user what they are doing wrong, and help to improve skills in any task with feet.
The socks should be useful to athletes and weekend joggers. “People think running is so easy and of course everybody can do it but not necessarily safely and well,” Dr. Davide Vigano said. A recent study showed that between 60 and 80 percent of runners got hurt per year. This is pretty much more than any other human activity. Researchers say the technology can also be developed to teach people how to dance, play sports such as golf, or even to help to teach women to walk better in high heels.
Mr. Vigano said, “People could all benefit from the idea. We have had interest from all sorts of sports, like skiing, football, cycling and golf. Anything where you have to use your feet can use it. It could even be put in high heels to help women walk in them safely.”
Socks are just the start, and the technology could be used in gloves, hats and boots. The socks, anklet and software package, are expected to be sold for around£120, which will go on sale in the near future .
【1】What does the underlined phrase “with two left feet” in paragraph1 mean?
A.Having no right foot.
B.Having no sense of music.
C.Being bad at dancing.
D.Inventing the socks.
【2】What’s special about fibers that are used to make the socks?
A.They feel much softer than normal clothes.
B.They can watch the movement of feet.
C.They are expensive to produce.
D.They act as a smart phone for users.
【3】What can we learn from Dr. Vigano’s words?
A.Everyone can make good use of the smart socks.
B.Users can run as fast as they like with the socks.
C.The socks don’t suit women with high heels.
D.No runners will get hurt because of the socks.
【4】What’s the best title for the text?
A.Smart Socks on Sale
B.Sundell’s First Test
C.Smart Socks Closer to Reality
D.Mr. Vigano’s Dream Coming True
27、It’s easy to observe an athlete like Tiger Woods and feel like he’s from another planet. He has won 14 major tournament(锦标赛) titles and about $122 million in prize money and ads. He also has a happy family. It seems that he is too perfect to be one of us. But Woods has more in common with you than you might think.
Woods’ parents — particularly his father — set high expectations for him when he was a child. Before Earl Woods’ death in 2006, he told Golf magazine, “My purpose in raising Tiger was not to raise a golfer. I wanted to raise a good person.”
By age two, Woods was already swinging(挥舞) a golf club. But once he entered school, Woods’ father was careful to send the message that school work came first. Woods wasn’t allowed to practice until his homework was done.
When Woods finally reached the professional tour, his father continued to expect a lot of him. “Tiger will do more than any other man in history to change the course of human. The world is just getting a taste of his power,” he said in 1996. Clearly, Earl Woods had great expectations of his son.
In this way, Tiger Woods is actually like a lot of us. Many of us feel a similar pressure to make our parents proud. When this happens, it’s easy to let that pressure overwhelm(压倒) us.
In a perfect world, we would all grow up to be Tiger Woods-like successes in our own fields. But that isn’t possible. There are many things that we can’t control in this life, despite our best efforts.
There is, however, one thing that we can do: we can try to be a “good person”, as Earl Woods asked his son to do.
【1】Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the first paragraph?
A. The number of tournament titles Tiger Woods has won.
B. The family members of Tiger Woods.
C. The money Tiger Woods has made in prize money and ads.
D. The impression that Tiger Woods leaves on us.
【2】According to the passage, which of the following statements about Tiger Woods is TRUE?
A. Tiger Woods is too perfect to be one of us.
B. Tiger Woods wasn’t allowed to play golf after class.
C. Tiger Woods did very well in golf as a child.
D. Tiger Woods didn’t like playing golf when he was a child.
【3】We can learn from the passage that Tiger Woods is under pressure to ____ just like many of us.
A. get high marks in the exam B. make his parents proud
C. change the course of human D. try to be a good person
【4】We can infer from the passage that ______.
A. Tiger Woods has a happy family
B. Tiger Woods’ mother didn’t set high expectations for him
C. Tiger Woods has changed the course of human
D. Tiger Woods’ father plays an important role on his road to success

29、Churchill, Manitoba is a small town. The northern winds roll through it from Canada's Hudson Bay. It might be just another point on the map if not for its seasonal settlers.
It happens like clockwork every autumn that hundreds of polar bears make their way through the town to the freezing bay where they hunt for seals after the ice packs enough to support their weight. The animals have been connected with Churchill since at least 1619. That's when Norwegian explorer Jens Munk and his sailors recorded making a meal of one while they wintered in the area. "It was of good taste and did not disagree with us. "That's what Munk wrote in his journal.
Over the years, the animals' coming has earned the town the name of "Polar Bear Capital of the World". Today, Churchill's bear population goes beyond its human population. There used to be about 7,000 residents but now only 813 living there. There was no such thing as an organized tour group to see the bears until 1980. The town might have been in terrible financial hardships. But the growing bear tourism industry helped a lot.
Today, some 10,000 tourists come to the town to see polar bears for six weeks in autumn every year. But the reasons why they come are different from before. Everyone was happier and they had such a good time seeing polar bears. Now things have changed because word is out that this Western Hudson Bay population of bears, Churchill Bears, are going to be the first population of polar bears to die out. So when the tourists come up, they all have a little bit of a lump in their throats because they're looking at a beautiful bear, but they're also looking at a dying-out bear, which makes the whole attitude toward the bears different. Unfortunately, that's becoming part of the whole promotional aspect of the tours as well. Come and see the bears before it's too late.
【1】What can we learn about Churchill polar bears from the text?
A.They have eaten up the seals in the Hudson Bay.
B.They go to Churchill at the same time every year.
C.They move to Churchill to escape the northern winds.
D.They are so dangerous that most natives left their home.
【2】According to the text, what did Munk report in his journal?
A.He and his sailors fed many polar bears.
B.Polar bears were dangerous.
C.He and his sailors hunted a bear for food.
D.He and his sailors found seals in the bay.
【3】How do polar bears benefit the town of Churchill?
A.They supply food for the locals.
B.They bring much tourist income.
C.They attract many hunters to come.
D.They make many people settle down.
【4】What is the main reason why tourists go to Churchill now?
A.To stop polar bears going to the town.
B.To take photos with Churchill Bears.
C.To help polar bears become happier.
