Fur years ag, life rewarded me fr all the challenges I embraced in search f self-imprvement. My spirits rse when I was selected t be in the Yuth Exchange and Study (YES) prgramme and I realized that I was ging t spend a full year in the United States. Befre that mment, living n the ther side f the Atlantic had always equated—fr a yung Mrccan wman wh had never set ft abrad—t an anxiety-free atmsphere, welcming neighbrs, and cuntless pprtunities. Frtunately, my hst cmmunity checked all these bxes.
My hst mther went abve and beynd t take care f my needs, my teachers were very accmmdating with regards t my schlwrk, and I culd use my status as an exchange student as an excuse when I needed a favr r an exceptin. As a YES student, peers frm s many diverse backgrunds at schl were interested in getting t knw me better. With all this unique treatment, I thught t myself, “Hld n a secnd! Is this what yu came fr?” Even thugh my hst cmmunity was s helpful and welcming, I realized that I was grwing t cntent with my life. I remembered that I came t the United States fr a challenge and that I was determined t strengthen my capacities.
T develp greater perseverance, I jined my hst schl’s swim team, even thugh I had n prir experience in this sprt. Fr ver five mnths, I walked myself—smetimes reluctantly—t swim practices. During thse practices, I did the best I culd fr three hurs each day.
One f my best achievements that year was cmpeting in ne f the biggest swim meets f the year. Frm an utsider’s perspective, it might nt seem like much, especially since I didn’t even win. Hwever, I was never the athletic type, nr have I ever been particularly utstanding in terms f discipline and cmmitment. Yet that was exactly what I achieved. I gained discipline and I came t the realizatin that I d nt need t be perfect at everything that I try fr the first time.
Grwth can take many frms. In my case, it tk the frm f a humid ceiling and an verly tight plyester cap. Grwth can nly be achieved by defying persnal limits and breaking free frm cmfrt znes. This is nt always a glamrus prcess, but it always brings yu clser t a new and imprved versin f yurself!

Many f yu may have used Siri, a vice assistant f US tech cmpany Apple. Yu nly have t say “hey Siri” and it will answer t yur cmmand. Hwever, we may be sacrificing ur privacy t enjy this cnvenience.
Accrding t a recent reprt by the Guardian, Siri can be accidentally triggered and start recrding private cnversatins, such as discussins between dctrs and patients Sme f these recrdings are then given t wrkers utside the cmpany t review. Apple claimed the data was used t help Siri imprve, but users were nt infrmed f this measure in the first place. Apple’s Siri is nt the nly vice assistant t cme under fire. In 2018, Alexa, a vice assistant develped by US tech cmpany Amazn, recrded a private cnversatin between a cuple and sent it t a stranger withut their permissin.
These issues deepened cncerns that tech cmpanies are infringing (侵犯) users’ rights f privacy. Many peple have lng feared that tech cmpanies are listening and cllecting data frm private cnversatins, reprted Frbes. Using this data, third party cmpanies culd then paint an accurate picture f users’ habits and preferences in rder t serve them mre targeted advertisements, r even wrse, sell this private data.
Despite this risk, the ppularity f vice assistant seems t be unstppable. In the near future, everything frm yur lighting t yur air-cnditining t yur refrigeratr, yur cffee maker, and even yur tilet culd be wired t a system cntrlled by vice, cmmented The Atlantic.
Clin Hrgan wrte n the blg site Medium that he believed peple’s daily lives will sn becme a surce f data. “ The sunds f ur hmes, the symphny f life laughing, crying, talking, shuting, sitting in silence-will n lnger be cnsidered memries, but data, ” he wrte. T deal with the issue, Blake Mrgan, reprter fr The Atlantic, believed that the answer is transparency. “All cmpanies need t have messaging ready t explain t custmers what they d with private data,” she wrte n The Atlantic.
8. What can be inferred frm Paragraph 2?
A. There are sme fire-prf vice assistants.
B. Many vice assistants are. being develped.
C. Sme vice assistants are als being criticized besides Siri.
D. Data cllected by Siri is used fr better user experience.
9. What seems t be peple’s biggest cncern abut vice assistants?
A. Serving them targeted advertisements.B. Sending their message.
C. Invading their privacy.D. Making n imprvements.
10. What shuld cmpanies d in respnse accrding t the last paragraph?
A. Stp cllecting data thrugh vice assistant.B. Explain their use f the data t custmers.
C. Make their data mre transparent.D. Cllect data t better keep memries.
11. What is the authr’s purpse in writing the text?
A. T shw visins f a data wrld in the future.
B. T criticize cmpanies’ invading custmers’ privacy.
C. T infrm peple f what tech cmpanies are really up t.
D. T draw attentin t the privacy issue cncerning vice assistants.

Animals can adapt quickly t survive unfavrable envirnmental cnditins. Evidence is munting t shw that plants can, t. A paper published in the jurnal Trends in Plant Science details hw plants are rapidly adapting t the effects f climate change, and hw they are passing dwn these adaptatins t their ffspring(后代).
Plants are facing mre envirnmental stresses than ever. Fr example, climate change is making winters shrter in many lcatins, and plants are respnding. “Many plants require a minimum perid f cld in rder t set up their envirnmental clck t define their flwering time,” says Martinelli, a plant geneticist at the University f Flrence. “As cld seasns shrten, plants have adapted t require shrter perids f cld t delay flwering. These mechanisms allw plants t avid flwering in perids when they have fewer pprtunities t reprduce.”
Because plants dn’t have neural(神经的) netwrks, their memry is based entirely n cellular(细胞的),mlecular(分子的),and bichemical netwrks. These netwrks make up what the researchers call smatic memry(体细胞记忆). “It allws plants t recgnize the ccurrence f a previus envirnmental cnditin and t react accrdingly,” says Martinelli.
These smatic memries can then be passed t the plants’ ffspring via epigenetics(表现遗传). “Several examples demnstrate the existence f mlecular mechanisms mdulating plant memry t envirnmental stresses and affecting the adaptatin f ffspring t these stresses,” says Martinelli.
Ging frward, Martinelli hpes t understand even mre abut the genes that are being passed dwn. “We are particularly interested in decding the epigenetic alphabet withut changes in DNA sequence(序列),”he says. “This is especially imprtant when we cnsider the rapid climate change, we bserve tday that every living rganism, including plants, needs t quickly adapt t survive.”
12. What adaptatins have plants made t shrtened cld seasns?
A. They have shrtened their flwering time.
B. They have gt mre chances t reprduce.
C. They have avided flwering in cld seasns.
D. They have adjusted their envirnmental clck.
13. What can we learn abut smatic memry?
A. It is entirely based n neural netwrks.
B. It can help the plants’ ffspring t survive.
C. It can help relieve envirnmental stresses.
D. It disturbs the plants’ bichemical netwrks.
14. What des the underlined wrd “mdulating” mean in paragraph 4?
A. Adjusting.B. Treasuring.
C. Recrding.D. Sharing.
15. Which f the fllwing is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Plants are smart abut flwering time
B. Plants can als adapt t climate change
C. Envirnmental stresses challenge plants
D. Mysteries f plant genes are t be unflded

It was a late Saturday afternn in early March, and I was sweating gracelessly, in search f the nly gift my sn said he wanted frm Ls Angeles: a map t the hmes f the stars.
I was here fr meetings in Westwd, near the UCLA Medical Centre. Shuld I wander a little? Try t find ne f the treasured maps?
Frm the frnt f the htel taxi line, a cheerful driver said, ”N prblem. Map vendrs(小 贩) are everywhere!“ Befre lng, we saw a hand-painted sandwich bard saying: Star Maps. The taxi stpped. A fellw apprached with a thin flded sheet and said: ”Ten dllars. “
Ten dllars. American! With righteus assurance, I infrmed him, ”That’s t much. “ The map man shrugged. We cntinued, whizzing past the Beverly Hills Htel int West Hllywd. The driver drpped me at the Huse f Blues, encuraging me t strll. I began walking, certain I wuld find a lw-cst star map sn.
I was wrng. There was hardly anybdy n the street. There didn’t seem t be many real stres, just cars and bars. N maps. N stars. Blcks passed. The sun began t sink. At the edge f West Hllywd, anther fellw appeared ahead, selling star maps t a car full f teenage girls.
Ten dllars still. Still t much. Frgt it. My sn wuld understand. Time t g back t Westwd. That night I called my wife. ” Did yu get ne f thse maps t the stars? He’s been talking abut nthing else. “ This news was hard t ignre. But it was late.
Mrning was cming. There wuld be last try. After I checked ut, the first taxi in the htel line was an ld Chevy driven by a skinny guy frm Nrth Carlina. At nine in the mrning, map vendrs were nwhere t be fund,
”Yu knw, “ said the driver, ” The guys with the maps just aren’t up yet!“ He was right.
”Frget it. Let’s g t the airprt. ”
“Well, ” said the driver, ”I culd mail yu ne if yu like. ”
Sure. Trust this guy? I might as well tss cash nt the freeway. But exiting the taxi, I recgnized my last chance. I handed the driver $13 and my business card.

Fur years ag, life rewarded me fr all the challenges I embraced in search f self-imprvement. My spirits rse when I was selected t be in the Yuth Exchange and Study (YES) prgramme and I realized that I was ging t spend a full year in the United States. Befre that mment, living n the ther side f the Atlantic had always equated—fr a yung Mrccan wman wh had never set ft abrad—t an anxiety-free atmsphere, welcming neighbrs, and cuntless pprtunities. Frtunately, my hst cmmunity checked all these bxes.
My hst mther went abve and beynd t take care f my needs, my teachers were very accmmdating with regards t my schlwrk, and I culd use my status as an exchange student as an excuse when I needed a favr r an exceptin. As a YES student, peers frm s many diverse backgrunds at schl were interested in getting t knw me better. With all this unique treatment, I thught t myself, “Hld n a secnd! Is this what yu came fr?” Even thugh my hst cmmunity was s helpful and welcming, I realized that I was grwing t cntent with my life. I remembered that I came t the United States fr a challenge and that I was determined t strengthen my capacities.
T develp greater perseverance, I jined my hst schl’s swim team, even thugh I had n prir experience in this sprt. Fr ver five mnths, I walked myself—smetimes reluctantly—t swim practices. During thse practices, I did the best I culd fr three hurs each day.
One f my best achievements that year was cmpeting in ne f the biggest swim meets f the year. Frm an utsider’s perspective, it might nt seem like much, especially since I didn’t even win. Hwever, I was never the athletic type, nr have I ever been particularly utstanding in terms f discipline and cmmitment. Yet that was exactly what I achieved. I gained discipline and I came t the realizatin that I d nt need t be perfect at everything that I try fr the first time.
Grwth can take many frms. In my case, it tk the frm f a humid ceiling and an verly tight plyester cap. Grwth can nly be achieved by defying persnal limits and breaking free frm cmfrt znes. This is nt always a glamrus prcess, but it always brings yu clser t a new and imprved versin f yurself!

Many f yu may have used Siri, a vice assistant f US tech cmpany Apple. Yu nly have t say “hey Siri” and it will answer t yur cmmand. Hwever, we may be sacrificing ur privacy t enjy this cnvenience.
Accrding t a recent reprt by the Guardian, Siri can be accidentally triggered and start recrding private cnversatins, such as discussins between dctrs and patients Sme f these recrdings are then given t wrkers utside the cmpany t review. Apple claimed the data was used t help Siri imprve, but users were nt infrmed f this measure in the first place. Apple’s Siri is nt the nly vice assistant t cme under fire. In 2018, Alexa, a vice assistant develped by US tech cmpany Amazn, recrded a private cnversatin between a cuple and sent it t a stranger withut their permissin.
These issues deepened cncerns that tech cmpanies are infringing (侵犯) users’ rights f privacy. Many peple have lng feared that tech cmpanies are listening and cllecting data frm private cnversatins, reprted Frbes. Using this data, third party cmpanies culd then paint an accurate picture f users’ habits and preferences in rder t serve them mre targeted advertisements, r even wrse, sell this private data.
Despite this risk, the ppularity f vice assistant seems t be unstppable. In the near future, everything frm yur lighting t yur air-cnditining t yur refrigeratr, yur cffee maker, and even yur tilet culd be wired t a system cntrlled by vice, cmmented The Atlantic.
Clin Hrgan wrte n the blg site Medium that he believed peple’s daily lives will sn becme a surce f data. “ The sunds f ur hmes, the symphny f life laughing, crying, talking, shuting, sitting in silence-will n lnger be cnsidered memries, but data, ” he wrte. T deal with the issue, Blake Mrgan, reprter fr The Atlantic, believed that the answer is transparency. “All cmpanies need t have messaging ready t explain t custmers what they d with private data,” she wrte n The Atlantic.
8. What can be inferred frm Paragraph 2?
A. There are sme fire-prf vice assistants.
B. Many vice assistants are. being develped.
C. Sme vice assistants are als being criticized besides Siri.
D. Data cllected by Siri is used fr better user experience.
9. What seems t be peple’s biggest cncern abut vice assistants?
A. Serving them targeted advertisements.B. Sending their message.
C. Invading their privacy.D. Making n imprvements.
10. What shuld cmpanies d in respnse accrding t the last paragraph?
A. Stp cllecting data thrugh vice assistant.B. Explain their use f the data t custmers.
C. Make their data mre transparent.D. Cllect data t better keep memries.
11. What is the authr’s purpse in writing the text?
A. T shw visins f a data wrld in the future.
B. T criticize cmpanies’ invading custmers’ privacy.
C. T infrm peple f what tech cmpanies are really up t.
D. T draw attentin t the privacy issue cncerning vice assistants.

Animals can adapt quickly t survive unfavrable envirnmental cnditins. Evidence is munting t shw that plants can, t. A paper published in the jurnal Trends in Plant Science details hw plants are rapidly adapting t the effects f climate change, and hw they are passing dwn these adaptatins t their ffspring(后代).
Plants are facing mre envirnmental stresses than ever. Fr example, climate change is making winters shrter in many lcatins, and plants are respnding. “Many plants require a minimum perid f cld in rder t set up their envirnmental clck t define their flwering time,” says Martinelli, a plant geneticist at the University f Flrence. “As cld seasns shrten, plants have adapted t require shrter perids f cld t delay flwering. These mechanisms allw plants t avid flwering in perids when they have fewer pprtunities t reprduce.”
Because plants dn’t have neural(神经的) netwrks, their memry is based entirely n cellular(细胞的),mlecular(分子的),and bichemical netwrks. These netwrks make up what the researchers call smatic memry(体细胞记忆). “It allws plants t recgnize the ccurrence f a previus envirnmental cnditin and t react accrdingly,” says Martinelli.
These smatic memries can then be passed t the plants’ ffspring via epigenetics(表现遗传). “Several examples demnstrate the existence f mlecular mechanisms mdulating plant memry t envirnmental stresses and affecting the adaptatin f ffspring t these stresses,” says Martinelli.
Ging frward, Martinelli hpes t understand even mre abut the genes that are being passed dwn. “We are particularly interested in decding the epigenetic alphabet withut changes in DNA sequence(序列),”he says. “This is especially imprtant when we cnsider the rapid climate change, we bserve tday that every living rganism, including plants, needs t quickly adapt t survive.”
12. What adaptatins have plants made t shrtened cld seasns?
A. They have shrtened their flwering time.
B. They have gt mre chances t reprduce.
C. They have avided flwering in cld seasns.
D. They have adjusted their envirnmental clck.
13. What can we learn abut smatic memry?
A. It is entirely based n neural netwrks.
B. It can help the plants’ ffspring t survive.
C. It can help relieve envirnmental stresses.
D. It disturbs the plants’ bichemical netwrks.
14. What des the underlined wrd “mdulating” mean in paragraph 4?
A. Adjusting.B. Treasuring.
C. Recrding.D. Sharing.
15. Which f the fllwing is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Plants are smart abut flwering time
B. Plants can als adapt t climate change
C. Envirnmental stresses challenge plants
D. Mysteries f plant genes are t be unflded

It was a late Saturday afternn in early March, and I was sweating gracelessly, in search f the nly gift my sn said he wanted frm Ls Angeles: a map t the hmes f the stars.
I was here fr meetings in Westwd, near the UCLA Medical Centre. Shuld I wander a little? Try t find ne f the treasured maps?
Frm the frnt f the htel taxi line, a cheerful driver said, ”N prblem. Map vendrs(小 贩) are everywhere!“ Befre lng, we saw a hand-painted sandwich bard saying: Star Maps. The taxi stpped. A fellw apprached with a thin flded sheet and said: ”Ten dllars. “
Ten dllars. American! With righteus assurance, I infrmed him, ”That’s t much. “ The map man shrugged. We cntinued, whizzing past the Beverly Hills Htel int West Hllywd. The driver drpped me at the Huse f Blues, encuraging me t strll. I began walking, certain I wuld find a lw-cst star map sn.
I was wrng. There was hardly anybdy n the street. There didn’t seem t be many real stres, just cars and bars. N maps. N stars. Blcks passed. The sun began t sink. At the edge f West Hllywd, anther fellw appeared ahead, selling star maps t a car full f teenage girls.
Ten dllars still. Still t much. Frgt it. My sn wuld understand. Time t g back t Westwd. That night I called my wife. ” Did yu get ne f thse maps t the stars? He’s been talking abut nthing else. “ This news was hard t ignre. But it was late.
Mrning was cming. There wuld be last try. After I checked ut, the first taxi in the htel line was an ld Chevy driven by a skinny guy frm Nrth Carlina. At nine in the mrning, map vendrs were nwhere t be fund,
”Yu knw, “ said the driver, ” The guys with the maps just aren’t up yet!“ He was right.
”Frget it. Let’s g t the airprt. ”
“Well, ” said the driver, ”I culd mail yu ne if yu like. ”
Sure. Trust this guy? I might as well tss cash nt the freeway. But exiting the taxi, I recgnized my last chance. I handed the driver $13 and my business card.
