Now, everybody is takingselfies. From your best friend to your favourite pop star, selfies are taking over Facebook 13、
and Sina Weibo. The word “selfie” was even named Word of the Year by Oxford Dictionaries in 2013. But why do people feel the need to take them? And are they doing us more harm than good?
According to some scientists, humans have an area in their brain that controls social activity. Receiving ‘LIKE’ on a selfie you have posted online can be the same as someone stopping you in the street and speak highly of you on your appearance.
The act of taking a selfie also puts you in a position of power. You are the director and the subject of your own work of art. It helps people feel in control of their appearance and can be a powerful tool.
But can it go too far? Scientists warn that too much time spent on selfies can influence people’s confidence, especially in teenagers. If you are spending a lot of time choosing the perfect selfie clothes, then there could be a problem. At the same time, posting selfies online can harm your personal relationships. UK studies found that many people find it hard to talk to people who are often posting selfies online.
So next time you want to use your smartphone(智能手机) to take a quick selfie, it may be better to drop it straight back into your pocket.
1.What does the underlined word ‘selfies’ mean? A.Pictures of yourself, usually taken by yourself. B.Pictures of your best friends, usually taken by you. C.Pictures of yourself, usually taken by others. D.Pictures of your favourite stars, usually taken by you. 2.What does the passage mainly talk about? A.People like taking selfies.
B.Why people often like taking selfies. C.How people take more beautiful selfies.
D.What good and harm taking selfies brings to people. 3.The writer thinks taking selfies . A.is doing us more good than harm B.is doing us more harm than good C.brings us as much good as harm D.brings us only harm

15、From China to the United States, facial recognition technology is being used and tested like this at the Los Angeles International Airport. This pilot program that takes a picture of the passenger and compares it to the passport picture, is just one way facial recognition technology can be used for safety. The facial recognition technology can also be used for surveillance(监视)and for the commercial use(商业用途).
Great achievements have been made in facial recognition technology in recent years.
The technology is used to identify a missing child. Computers are finally fast enough to process all the data that we need to process. Machines can now match faces even when the lighting isn't good or when a full shot of the face is not available. a side shot or moving image of the face may be enough for artificial intelligence to make a match. Face first is one of many companies developing facial recognition software with endless possible uses. Try to imagine that everyday items that we have such as our house keys, our car keys, our ATM cards, our passwords are all starting to go away and instead, We’re going to be using facial recognition, Smart phones, of course are now using facial recognition. Laptops have facial recognition on them.
The ability to get an image of a person without permission comes with privacy worries.
“My biggest worry is actually not the government, it’s the big companies where there are really no limits on how they can share data, what they can use it for, how they can use it.”
Facial recognition researchers say some social rules should be created to guide the use of this technology, so it can be used safely to do good to society.
1.Where does the passage probably come from? A.A guide book. C.A fashion magazine.
B.A science report. D.A novel.
2.From the first paragraph, we learn that the facial recognition technology is used ______. A.in all the airports in America. B.only for safety

16、Dear Dad,
Today I was at the shopping center and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards. But as I chose and read, and chose and read again, it seemed that not a single card said what I really want to say to you.
You'll soon be 84 years old, Dad, and you and I will have had 56 Father's Days together. I didn't think that you were too old. But the sad thing happened last week. I watched as you turned at the corner in your car. I didn't realize at once that it was you because the man who was driving looked so elderly.
Fifty years ago this spring, we planted carrots together in a garden in Charles City, Iowa. This week, we'll plant carrots together again, perhaps for the last time but I hope not. I don't understand why planting carrots with you is so important to me. Well, I don't quite know how to tell you this, Dad... I don't like carrots... but I like planting them with you.
I guess what I'm trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their dad today. Praising a father on Father's Day is about more than a dad who brings home money or shares a dinner. It's more about a dad deeply loving children who know everything and won't listen to anyone. It's about sharing. It's about loving someone more than
words can say, and I wish that it would never end. Love, Jenny
1.Where did Jenny go today? A.A zoo. C.A cinema.
2.How old is Jenny now? A.84. C.50.
B.56. D.34.
B.A shopping center. D.A hospital.
3.What do the underlined words “the man” in Paragraph 2 refer to(指)? A.An old man. C.Jenny's father.
4.What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A.It's the last time for Jenny to plant carrots with her father. B.Jenny and her father plant carrots together every year. C.Both Jenny and her father like eating carrots. D.Jenny would like to stay with her father.
5.What does Jenny talk about in the last paragraph? A.Deep love for Dad. B.Best wishes for Dad. C.The importance of Dad. D.The beginning of Father's Day.

17、Thinking outside the Box
If you think young people can't have an influence on the world,think again. Over the years,teens have invented excellent things that solve problems and have changed the ways people do things.
Take fourteen-year-old Eliott Sarrey for example. He invented Bot2Karot,a gardening robot that can take care of a small vegetable garden. The robot is controlled by an app on a smartphone. It helps people grow and take care of vegetables. It also saves water and energy,and makes gardening easy for people who are very busy or have difficulty getting around. Brooke Martin is an animal lover who missed her dog when she was away. So she invented iCPooch when she was just twelve years old.

smartphone. It also allows owners to use their smartphone cameras to video chat with their pets.
