Transparent televisions
LG and Samsung brought televisions that have a transparent (透明的) screen design to CES. The TVs use OLED technology. They’re designed to be hidden in a room when not in use.

Home-made ice cream in 2 minutes
The ColdSnap company introduced a machine that can make single servings of ice cream in about two minutes. The machine uses small containers, called pods, just like Keurig coffeemakers.

Have you ever found picking out the face of a friend in a group photo is sometimes hard, especially when everyone crowds together In the same way, it can also be hard to read a passage of text when the letters are too close together. In fact, a new study shows that spacing the letters farther apart can help anyone read faster, and possibly understand more.
Dyslexia is a common reading disorder. Crowded text was especially difficult for people with dyslexia to read. So researchers wanted to see if increasing the spacing between letters would help.
Steven Stagg, a scientist, studies how people think and learn. His team recruited 59 students between 11 and 15 years old, thirty-two of whom had dyslexia. While the researchers recorded them, each student read two passages out loud. One passage was in its original format. In the other, there was an increase of 2.5 points in the spacing between the litters. The recording allowed the scientists to measure their reading speed and count any mistakes, such as skipped words.
People with dyslexia often employ aids to help them read, such as colored overlays (覆盖物). This time they are offered by the researchers. Those colored overlays didn’t help either group of kids. However, kids with dyslexia read the wider-spaced text 13 percent faster than the text with original spacing. These kids also made fewer mistakes. Students without dyslexia read faster, too, although only by 5 percent.
This is very good news. It means teachers and publishers can print material with extra spacing between litters. Readers with dyslexia won’t feel singled out by having to use special aids for reading. An organization called Readability Matters is working on these issues. The group is trying to get tech companies to make changes that should make reading easier.
Stagg says, “Some methods have shown mixed results, but Letter spacing seems to be the one thing that everyone is finding works.”
28. What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To make the article interesting.
B. To present a common problem.
C. To lead to the topic of the article.
D. To provide a new solution.
29. What do you know about people with Dyslexia
A. They may understand everything while reading wider-spaced text.
B. They may read faster than normal kids while reading wider- spaced text.
C. They may free from dyslexia after increasing letter spacing.
D. They may feel singled out while using colored layouts for reading.
30. In which column of a newspaper can we probably find this passage
A. Science study. B. Campus life.
C. Star stories. D. Business.
31. What is the best title for the text
A. Readers Try to Improve Reading Speed
B. You Just Need More Space
C. Colored Overlays Are Helpful Aids
D. Dyslexia Affects Reading Speed
D
Litterati is an app that people can use to upload information about litter they collect outside, such as its appearance, material, location, and brand. Shared online, this information contributes to building a global database of “litter maps”, which can influence policy and packaging design.
“Society’s failure to solve the litter problem is not from a lack of trying. There have been public service announcements, and coastal cleanups. But I believe two components are missing from the discussion — community and data,” said Jeff Kirschner, the developer of Litterati app.
Uploading pictures to an app shows users that they are not the only ones picking up litter from public places and that others are invested in cleaning the planet, too. And the data accumulates rapidly telling a story that helps people understand who picked up what, where, and when. In this way, people are encouraged to do more.
In San Francisco, the Litterati app was able to identify and map more than 5,000 pieces of litter in order to determine how much was caused by cigarettes specifically. Using this information, the city successfully challenged a lawsuit by tobacco companies and doubled an existing cigarette sales tax, bringing in US $4 million annual revenue (税收).
By joining forces with others using the same platform, individuals are able to take their anti-litter activism to another level. The power of combined data leads to more Extended Producer Responsibility, which is precisely what we want and advocate here — producers are forced to be responsible for dealing with their own products once consumers no longer find them useful and are incentivized to create more environmentally friendly packaging or better policies as a result of that new responsibility.
Litterati takes a refreshingly non-judgmental approach. It shows a positive we-can-do-it attitude. Just as Jeff Kirschner said, “Our goal isn’t to shame. It’s to provide transparency to the problem. We provide access to data and share insights with cities, citizens and businesses, guiding us all to identify the root cause of the problem, and make informed decisions of how to clean the planet.”
32. What makes the society fail to solve the litter problem according to Kirschner
A. People’s poor environmental awareness. B. The absence of government publicity and support.
C. The inaction of the community. D. The lack of high technology.
33. Why are tobacco companies mentioned
A To show the influence of Litterati. B. To describe the details of the map.
C. To warn people of the harm of cigarettes. D. To prove the large consumption of tobacco.
34. What can be inferred from the text
A. People can be encouraged to pick up litter only if others are doing so.
B. Individuals hardly get involved in picking up litter until the release of Litterati.
C. The use of Litterati inspires producers to fulfill further obligations for the society.
D. Kirschner developed the app with the aim of appealing to individuals to pick up litter.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Litter Maps: Make Litter-Picking a Fun Way
B. Litterati: Transparent Data for a Cleaner World
C. Litterati App: Guide People Where to Collect Litter
D Litterati Campaign: Everyone Counts in Litter Picking

Okay. I’ll admit it. I can be a complainer. After all, there’s so much in my life that annoys me: my school work, my brother’s dirty shoes, the neighbor’s loud music, rainy days, traffic jams…
Complaining is what I have developed since childhood. My family doesn’t seem to mind. Mom always tries to excuse my behavior as something that I would outgrow, but I do remember some eye-rolling and long-drawn sighs from friends and families when I would voice my negative opinions. In fact, I can clearly recall the exact moment when I first realized my complaining habit deeply hurt people around.
I had a generally pleasant high school life with my usually mild-mannered deskmate Lucy in Senior 2. Sure, there was still plenty to complain about, but she never seemed to mind. Or so I thought. Then, on a hot summer afternoon, we sat in our classroom - no wind, no air conditioning, the sweat messing my hair. Impatiently, I whispered something about the situation under my breath. Probably for the tenth time. Also, I reminded her once again to remove her arms from my table and take her books away, she put up her hand, turned to me and shouted, “Stop! Stop your complaining. It’s driving me crazy.” Her eyes widened. Turning away, she didn’t speak to me for the rest of the day.
Perhaps I’d gone too far, I thought. Maybe I really did complain too much. I took a breath and sat down to think about solutions. I could hide myself in the washing room and scream. No. Other students would probably hear me. Turn to teachers or my family They probably wouldn’t mind as well. Then it hit me.
I’d been in the habit of keeping a journal. Journaling kept me sort of honest with myself and I liked it for that reason. Perhaps, I thought, a complaint journal might be the answer I was seeking.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150 左右；
2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。
That night, I sat down in front my desk and gave it a try.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I made up my mind to apologize to Lucy the next day.
