21、

Living in a foreign country can be exciting, but it’s also a difficult experience. Today I want to share my personal experience of living abroad (在国外) with you.

Living in a foreign country, I’m able to learn another language. I came to Turkey to learn art in a college two years ago. So far, I have learnt thousands of Turkish words. And knowing a second language can be very helpful (有用的) for one’s work, especially (尤其) for those who want to work in a foreign company. What’s more, living in a foreign country helps people to get to know about a different culture, which gives them a new idea about life.

However, there are also some disadvantages (缺点) of living abroad. Firstly, not knowing the spoken language of the country can be the biggest problem. And when I live in this country far away from my hometown, I miss my family and friends from time to time. We can only talk on the Internet. They also worry about me so much.

In short, living abroad alone is not as interesting as others expect. However, it can be an important experience that makes a great difference to my life.

【1】Why did the writer come to Turkey?

A.To work. B.To study. C.To take a trip.

【2】How many advantages (优点) of living abroad are mentioned in the passage?

A.Two. B.Three. C.Four.

【3】What does the writer think is the most difficult thing of living abroad?

A.Culture. B.Language. C.New environment.

【4】The writer thinks the life abroad is _______.

A.hard but helpful B.boring and difficult C.happy and interesting

【5】From the passage, we can know that _______.

A.the writer works in a large company

B.the writer still can’t speak Turkish well

C.the writer’s friends care about him a lot

22、   Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! The program works because everyone’s eyes are different. So in the future you won’t have to remember a number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. You’ll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are.

The eye-recognition (眼睛识别) program has already been tested in shops and banks in the USA, Britain, Spain, Italy and Turkey. Soon this technology (技术) will take the place of all other ways of finding out who people are.

However, scientists are also working on other systems (系统). Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell! We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger.

Eye-recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes don’t change as you get older, or get dirty like hands or fingers. And even twins have different eyes. So the eye-recognition program can be up to 94% correct, depending on how good the technology is. However, some other programs may only be 51% correct at present. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.

In the future your computer will be looking at you in the eye. So smile!

【1】How does the eye-recognition program work?

A.You write your number. B.You show your ID card.

C.You say your name. D.You look at the machine.

【2】How many ways will machines be able to know you soon?

A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Five.

【3】Why can the program be up to 94% correct?

A.Because eyes never change. B.Because hands or fingers can get dirty.

C.Because people like the idea of the program. D.Because the program is widely used around the world.

【4】Which of the following is TRUE?

A.The program is being tested in Japan.

B.Machines with other systems can also tell who you are.

C.91% of people like the idea of the program.

D.Computers can remember you by looking at your clothes.

【5】What does this passage mainly talk about?

A.Introduction to some kinds of programs.

B.Introduction to the eye-recognition program.

C.The way how the eye-recognition program works.

D.The places where the eye-recognition program is tested.

23、Should we teenagers help our parents do chores? Is it important for us to learn how to do chores? I think so. Most of teenagers like us are the only child in each family.

24、   Sometimes it may seem difficult to improve your health. If so, the following health habits may help you.

◎Eat breakfast every morning.

Research shows that if you eat a meal in the morning you may not become too fat or eat too much during lunch. Eating breakfast can help people feel better through the day.

Poor sleep can influence our memory and learning. It can also cause traffic accidents! Studies show that people who don't get enough sleep seem to get into more accidents. So stay safe and get enough sleep!

Walking is an easy way to exercise. You'd better meet friends for a walk, not for a meal. As you walk, you will see the beautiful world around you. Once you try, you will find that adding a walk into your daily life is very easy.

◎Join social groups.

Social groups can provide support. They might include sports teams, art or music groups. People in the group can offer advice and can help each other in difficult times. Also, being in a group keeps your mind busy. An active mind is a healthy mind.
