New Technology Revolutionizes(变革) Learning
More and more people believe that technologies are great for learning. Today, such teaching tools as iPads are used in a lot of courses, including language, history and science.
Many teachers are supporters of using iPads in language learning. They say that students now have much more time for discussion in the classroom.Instead of spending valuable class time listening to texts or watching teaching videos, students can do this on their own and come to class prepared for discussion.
The teachers also say that iPads allow students to learn at their own pace. Some students might listen to a dialogue only once and understand it, so they can save time for doing other things. Other students, however, might need to listen to the same dialogue again and again to understand it. Using iPads is especially helpful to students who are learning a language at different paces.
The students who are using the new tool in some courses are also happy. They believe that using iPads is a more enjoyable way to learn (such as listening to stories and watching movies). The class has become much more interesting and creative.
There are other advantages for students. By using iPads, they can pay more attention to the material and learn more. Teaching notes are stored in their iPads and are easy to find .Some students spend more time studying now.“I can listen to my language material or watch teaching videos on the bus, instead of having to wait until I get home,” a student explained.
Many adults complain that technologies such as iPads are doing harm to students. They worry that students might use iPads to download teaching notes and use them to cheat during exams. Some believe that iPads may separate students from each other. If a student spends more time watching videos on an iPad, he will have fewer opportunities to have face-to-face communication with others.
However, technologies are already a part of most students’ day-to-day lives. As for cheating, teachers can ask students to hand in their iPads when they take exams. Education needs to make changes with the times as technology is playing an important part. We should look forward to a wonderful future when iPads and other technologies can add a lot to the classroom.
What does the expression“at their own pace” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
| A．According to their own timetable. |
| B．Without their teachers’ help. |
| C．Because of their wonderful goals. |
| D．Against their parents’ hope. |
From the passage we can learn that____.
| A．students with iPads have less discussion in class |
| B．students get more fun from learning with iPads |
| C．iPads help students save time waiting for buses |
| D．iPads prevent students from cheating in exams |
The writer probably agrees that____.
| A．teachers can take control of students’ learning |
| B．exam results depend a lot on now technology |
| C．technology in education has a bright future |
| D．note-taking is as helpful as video-watching |

Dear Alan,
Guess what? I have a chance to choose my new place to live in! I’m excited and a little nervous. Could you please give me some help?
I’m not sure whether I will live in a house or in an apartment. On the one hand, a house will be too big for just one person, so maybe I should rent an apartment. On the other hand, if I rent a house, I could find someone else to share with me. The only problem is that a house full of people might be too noisy for me. I prefer to have my own space. The city has some nice apartments, but they are also too expensive. However, if I could find a two-bedroom apartment and get a roommate, that would make it more affordable. I just need to search for a roommate who is neat and quiet. You know I can’t live with someone who is loud and messy. I don’t have a car, so I also need to think carefully about the location. I probably need to look for somewhere near a bus stop or an underground station. That way I will have more time to study and spend less time travelling.
I’m looking forward to your reply.
Love, Victor

I am 22. I used to work in a hotel. It was boring.
One day a guest and I had a conversation. She asked me, 6/Do you like your job?" I was sad because I knew the answer. “No".
She was 74 and gave me the most beautiful advice that I remember in all my life: You are too young to hate your job, young man. Go to get your passport and start your adventure(冒险 ). "
So I did.

I packed some books, a camera, 4 shirts, 2 pants, a coat, gloves, 2 pairs of walking shoes, candies and music to give away.

One day Frank was walking with his mother when they came to a pretty garden.
Frank looked in, and saw that it had clean gravel（碎石）walks and beautiful flowers.

Frank walked along the tidy gravel walks, and looked at everything, but touched nothing that he saw.
