A
“Why do I feel cold when I have a fever?” “Why does the sun rise in the east?” I knew the day would come
when my little girl Sophie would learn to talk and inevitably (不可避免地) start askingthose questions. The
questions themselves weren’t worrying me. I was actually looking forward to seeing where her curiosity would lie.
What was bothering (烦恼) me was whether or not I would know the answers. In the age of the smartphone,
this may seem like a silly worry. The answers to almost everything would be just one Google away.
Still, I struggled with how I was going to prepare to become an all-knowing mother. Then one day, it struck
me: I didn’t need to have all the answers. What a great example I could set if I let my daughter know that I, too,
was still learning. And I realized how much more I could learn if I took another look at things I thought I already
knew the answer to with the curiosity of a child. My little girl’s mind is a beginner’s mind--- curious, open to new
ideas, eager to learn, and not based on knowledge that already exists. I decided that I would deal with her
questions with a beginner’s mind, too.
Once I decided to become more curious, I started noticing that curiosity was becoming more important in the
workplace, too. It seems that leaders don't need to have all the answers, but they do need to be curious.
Curious about curiosity, I searched for answers and found Albert Einstein’s famous words, “I have no special
talent. I am only passionately (热情地) curious.” We mightquibble overthe view that Einstein had no special talent,
but there is one thing for certain---he wouldn't have solved the puzzles of the universe without his passionate
curiosity. Then I came across another Einstein quote, “The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has
its own reason or existence.”
1. The advantage of having a beginner’s mind is that ________.
A. people can learn much faster.
B. people won't be afraid to make mistakes.
C. people are willing to receive new things.
D. people won't be expected to answer all questions.
2. What does the example of Einstein’s words show?
A. Einstein was passionate about curiosity. B. Einstein’s quotes are very famous.
C. Curiosity is of great significance.
D. Curiosity is more necessary than talent.
3. What does the underlined phrase “quibble over” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Fight against. B. Argue about.
C. Work out. D. Agree with
B
Too much TV-watching can harm children’s ability to learn andeven reduce their chances of getting a college
degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.
One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms
scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs.
A second study ,looking at nearly 1000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among
26-year-olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood.But the results don’t prove that TV is the cause and
don't ride out that already poorly motivated youngsters (年轻人）may watch lots of TV.
Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages5 and 15. These with college degrees had
watch an averageof less than two hours of TV per week night during childhood, compared with an average of
more than 2.5 hours for those who had no education beyond high school.
In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest while
those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest.
While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to increasing findings
that children shouldn't have TVs in their bedrooms.
4. According to the California study, the low-scoring group might _________.
A. have had computers in their bedrooms
B. not be interested in math
C. be unable to go to college
D. have watched a lot of TV
5. What is the researchers' understanding of the New Zealand study results?
A. Poorly motivated 26-year-olds watch more TV.
B. Habits of TV watching reduce learning interest.
C. The connection between TV and education levels is difficult to explain. D. TV watching leads to lower education levels of the 15-year-olds.
6. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A. TV sets shouldn't be allowed in children's bedrooms.
B. Children should be forbidden from watching TV.
C. More time should be spent on computers.

When the sun shines brightly, it provides a great chance to get outdoor things done. Like making hay! At least,
that is what farmers from the past would say. ―Make hay while the sun shines.This idiom is very old, dating back
to Medieval times. Rain would often ruin the process of making hay. So, farmers had no choice but to make hay
when the sun was shining.
Today, we all use this expression, not just farmers. When conditions are perfect to get something done, we
can say, ―It’s a good idea to make hay while the sun shines.In other words, you are taking advantage of a good
situation or of good conditions. You are making the most of your opportunities. These all mean ―making hay
while the sun shines.

I work as the reception manager at my hotel.
A booking came in a few weeks ago with a note attached that a guest would be
travelling with her deaf father. This note helped us in preparing for their arrival.
As they would be here for a number of days, his daughter wanted to make his trip
to Ireland as smooth as possible.
Upon seeing this note and knowing I would be the one to check them in, I decided
to learn some very basic sign language. I greeted the guest in my usual fashion,
asking for the surname on the booking. Once I heard the name，I immediately realized

The “laugh out loud” face is officially the world’s most popular emoji, according to researchers from Adobe
(ADBE) who surveyed 7,000 users across the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Japan, Australia,
and South Korea.
The “thumbs up” emoji came in second, followed by the “red heart” emoji. The flirtatious “wink and kiss”
and “sad face with a tear” emojis respectively rounded out the top five.
The software maker on Thursday released the findings from its 2021 Global Emoji Trend Report ahead of
World Emoji Day on Saturday.
Adobe’s latest Emoji Trend report also examined the three most misunderstood emojis in the world. The
“eggplant” symbol edged out the “peach” and the “clown” emojis respectively as the most confusing for users.

Try one of these amazing destinations on your next vacation.
Mallorca
On the popular Spanish island of Mallorca, farmhouse inns focus more on providing isolation and quietness
than offering hands-on farming experiences. With millions of visitors staying on the beaches of Mallorca and the
other Balearic Islands each summer, a little bit of isolation is a good thing for aloneness-seeking travelers. Mainly
located in the hills of inland Mallorca, these inns range from rustic century-old farmhouses to luxury(奢侈的) villas
with spas and swimming pools.
Hawaii
People who don't want to dig out their passport but still want their farm adventure can head to the island of
Hawaii. The 50th state talks much about the well-developed farm tourism industry that can hold people with

People in the Middle Ages did eat with their hands. Personal utensils (餐具) were mostly unheard of,
especially forks. There were spoons to help serve, but only special guests would receive a knife from the host.
Everyone else would be expected to bring their own. Of course, eating with one's hands can be quite a sticky
situation, so towels were provided to help diners stay at least somewhat clean as they ate.
Still, dining was often a messy affair. At special occasions in the wealthiest households, women tended to
dine alone, separate from the men. Women were expected to uphold a quality of grace. Eating greasy meat by
hand would certainly not help! Once the men and women had finished their meals, they would come together to

Winnie the Pooh
by A A Milne
My father used to read this to me when I was very young — he used different voices for all the animals. The
characterization (角色设定) was so clever; we all know someone just like each inhabitant of the HundredAcre
Wood: gloomy Eeyore; thick but loyal Pooh; enthusiastic Tigger.
A A Milne was masterful in exploring the way they got along together, opening my eyes to how society really
works.

On Friday morning when 53-year-old Thong Pham broke into the house through the unlocked back door, he
took a steak knife from the kitchen.
It was dark, and the family didn't know what Marley was barking (吠) at. Taylor, Amber and their girls Finley,
6,and Sadie, 4, soon woke up and came downstairs, too. “Well, it was dark so we couldn't see anything, only could
hear Marley,” Amber recalled, saying her husband then went for the lights. “And once he turned the hall light on,
we realized that the guy was holed up in the corner trying to hide.”
“So I think he got to the front door and realized he couldn't get out, and by that point in time, Marley's got
him cornered,”Taylorsaid. Pham slashed (砍) both Marley and Taylor, and blood went everywhere. Taylor shared a
