26、One summer during high school, my mom volunteered me to help Grandpa research our family tree. Great, I thought, imagining hours spent pawing through dusty, rotting boxes and listening to boring stories about people I didn't know. "You'll be surprised," my mom promised, "Family histories can be very interesting."
In truth, Grandpa didn't want to limit my work to just research, hoping to also preserve our family memories. He'd discovered a computer program that helps digitally scan old pictures and letters to preserve their contents before they crumble from old age. Grandpa wanted me to help him connect the scanner and set up the computer program. Ile could type documents and send emails, but had never used a scanner.
Soon after, I became fascinated with my relatives' lives. I asked Grandpa to tell the story behind every picture and letter we scanned. The stories, which turned out not to be boring at all, helped me not only understand but also relate to my relatives. I became so hungry for more information that Grandpa needed additional props to keep me satisfied. He showed me a chest filled with random stuff, all covered in dust.
Perusing through their belongings, I felt I was opening a window into the world of my relatives, a world long since gone. Grandpa showed me a bundle of letters he had sent to Grandma from the front lines of World War II and I could almost smell the gunpowder. I turned the pages of my great-grandmother's recipe book and could picture her cooking in her kitchen. All of the people who had been merely names to me now had faces to match.
Later, Grandpa admitted, "I probably could have done this project myself. I just wanted someone to share it with." I can't thank him enough for sharing the experience and making me appreciate the family members who have made me the person I am. I will cherish family memories and hope that someday will be able to pass them down to my own grandchildren.

【3】Why did Grandpa give the author a chest?
A．To show him a bundle of letters.
B．To keep him away from boredom.

A．He used to serve in the army.

27、I was 16 when my father finally decided he would send me to wilderness camp for several months. He had threatened to do it many times before, but my mother had always managed to prevent him from doing so. This time he insisted on doing it.
The latest incident was the last straw. Impulsively （(冲动地）,I had pushed Mr. Ford, my math teacher, down a flight of steps at school. He broke his arm in two places. Anyway , he had agreed not to accuse me as a favor to my dad, who was in the middle of a tight race for sheriff （执法官）in our town. But my reckless behavior had my dad's closest advisor talking." John? he's your son and he's a kid, but he is dragging you down." his advisor said. "If you can't make your son obey the rules, how can you make the law obeyed in this town?"
So, off to Pisgah National Forest I went. I imagined hours of untold abuse at the hands of some strong officer. I was determined not to be broken. I was who I was.
Nearly every day for six months, a small group of other troubled teens and I carried our 30-pound backpacks on a difficult journey covering about 10 miles.
Our sergeants were firm but kind 9 not frightening as I had imagined. We learned how to make a fire without matches. We learned which plants were safe to eat out in the wild. I felt myself change. I was calm and often reflective. My old, impulsive self was gone.
One morning, six months later, my dad came to pick me up. I ran to hug him and saw happiness and love in his eyes.
"So what's it like being sheriff?" I asked on the ride home.
"I lost the race, Danny,” he said.
"I'm sorry, Dad.” I knew my behavior probably had a lot to do with the defeat.
Dad squeezed my shoulder and brought me close. “As long as I don't ever lose you, I'm okay. ”

28、What do you use to unlock your cellphone? A password? A fingerprint? Or simply a glance?
On September 12, 2017, Apple introduced its iPhone X, which has an eye-catching feature—Face ID.
With Face ID, Apple says, you can unlock your new iPhone by just looking at it. It is powered by a so-called TrueDepth camera system built into the front of the iPhone X.
When the camera system sees a person’s face, it uses 30,000 unseen dots to “map” the shape and outline of the face. A mathematical model of the face will then be created and stored in the phone.
The next time the person looks at the iPhone X, the same dots are mapped onto his or her face and compared to the stored model. If the two match, then the phone unlocks. This happens in less than a second.
Apple says the system is smart. If you change your hairstyle, put on sunglasses or makeup, or use the phone in the dark, Face ID still works.
Although the technology sounds fancy, there are still concerns. For example, will Face ID work for twins?
According to Apple, the chance of others to unlock your iPhone X using Face ID is one in a million. Face ID can tell the difference between twins, but the error rating（出错率）rises. So one would need to set a password then.
Apple also emphasizes that Face ID only unlocks when you stare at it. It is what Apple calls “attention aware”. So the phone won’t unlock if you are just glancing at the phone for the time. It won’t work either if someone puts the phone at your sleeping face or your photo.
【1】Face ID helps iPhone X users to ________.
A. get their phones more eye-catching
B. make the phone camera powerful
C. unlock their cell phones quickly
D. create and store their face model easily
【2】How does the camera system of Face ID work?
A. It compares the face model with the user’s face later.
B. It remembers the users’ faces by taking their pictures.
C. It uses a map to store face models of its users for use.
D. It matches the users’ faces with dots in the system.
【3】The iPhone X users may not unlock their phones when ________.
A. they wear makeup B. the users are twins
C. they change the hairstyles D. they use it without lights
【4】What is the best title of the text?
A. The introduction of the iPhone X
B. The features of the iPhone X
C. The iPhone X recognizes a face
D. Unlock the iPhone X by a stare.
29、This time we thought we would go trekking（徒步）. I was so excited that I could not sleep for days. I have only seen in movies and read in books how difficult it is and-how one does trekking. I couldn't believe I was going to do this myself one day, and not alone but with my family.
On the big day we were so excited that we kids could not control it. With lots of instructions and warnings, we started our journey and the much awaited journey came to an end. When we reached our destination, It was real fun.
First we kids were allowed to climb for a small height. It was really adventurous. Stepping on the foot of a mountain to climb it is really exciting. We tried hard, but could not make it to a good height that we could. Then our parents went and they too had a tough time. Slipping and falling and then again retrying, it was all so much fun. We then took a break and tried climbing once again, this time getting better. We were told about the risks of climbing to great heights, and so we were not ready to take so much of the risk. This was truly an adventurous journey that I've had so far.
Lots of excitement, dangers involved fun and on the whole a great experience was what this journey gifted us. If given a chance, we would all go for a second time for this great expedition, with no second thoughts. For those who love adventures and challenges, trekking is a wonderful activity to be done.
