Green Island，with clear blue water around it，is an island in the Pacific Ocean,33 kilometers east of Taitung. The old name for Green Island was Huoshandao，meaning “fireburning island”.

Last month， the artist Christo opened his new art sculpture． It is made up of 7，506 colorful barrels （桶） floating on a lake in Hyde Park in London． Christo calls it The London Mastaba． It is his first major outdoor art sculpture in Great Britain． The artwork is in the shape of a mastaba． It looks somewhat like a pyramid with a fat top． The London Mastaba is about 65 feet high， 98 feet wide and 130 feet long， and it weighs about 1.3 million pounds． The metal barrels can be seen from hundreds of feet away．
（2）
Everyone who looks at it will see something different． Many will think the barrels are barrels of oil in the heart of one of London's oldest parks． They might wonder if Christo was making an announcement against pollution． Others will see a prism or giant pixels or simply a shape． However， everyone must decide for themselves， the 83﹣year﹣old artist said． Christo said he had nothing special in mind when he created The London Mastaba． "There are no messages，" Christo said． "There is something in it to discover yourself． I cannot direct you．"
"A Stairway To The Sky"
"It's created a giant invitation， like a stairway to the sky，" Christo said． The artist was standing on the banks of the Serpentine Lake in Hyde Park where his artwork floats． Swans are swimming nearby． Some barrels are red with a white candy stripe on the sides． Others are colored blue， purple and red． Their colors will look different as the light changes， Christo said． Their reflection （倒影） in the lake will be like an abstract painting． Abstraction is an artistic style that does not always show something recognizable or realistic．
"Not Really Sure How I Feel About It"
Many people walking in the park were surprised to see the artwork． "It's very modern， but this place is nature and historical． I don't like it here，" said Yasmin KocOzcengel， who is a tourist from Turkey． Another person who took a look at the artwork was Anna Andronova． She called The London Mastaba very brave． If it weren't as brave， it wouldn't be as amazing， she said． Sheila Seffenson is an American living in London． "I'm just not really sure how I feel about it，" Steffenson said． "Maybe it's a message about pollution． Who knows？"

The first Chinese actor captured （征服） the hearts of many Chinese in the USA． He read a letter by Zhuge Liang（181～ 234）to the emperor of Shuhan during the Three Kingdoms（220～280）period in the new season of Growling Tiger and Roaring Dragon（《虎啸龙吟》）
The letter has been read by so many students． We would never have thought that the text written in old Chinese could be so beautifully read in another language． As a result， foreigners begin to show interest in Rommance of the Three Kingdoms， translated bt C．H． Brewitt﹣Tailor and Robert E． Hegel．
Earlier in November 1979， pupils in England were able to watch a new TV program called Monkey． Most of them were hearing the story for the first time． However， the story of the Monkey King isn't new to Chinese Children in the traditional Chinese book Journey to the West．
As soon as the TV programme came out more than 30years ago， western children became interested in reading this story because the clever Monkey King keeps fighting to help the weak and never gives up．
Chinese scholars（学者） should do a better job of introducing Chinese literature（文学） to the rest of the world． At the same time， we could encourage western schools to try something different．
Reading international literature is an effective way of understand other people in the world． And the more we understand each other， the more beautiful the world will be．

It's been 100 years since the actor and filmmaker Charlie Chaplin produced the film The Kid ，which many consider to be his greatest one.
Like all films at the time，The Kid was made in black and white and was silent （made without any sound，not even the characters talking）.The story is about the relationship between " the Tramp"，played by Chaplin，and his adopted （领养的）child，played by Jackie Coogan.The pair develop a partnership where the six year﹣old boy breaks windows and runs away，so that Chaplin's character can offer his services as a window fixer.
Although the film is a comedy，it also has some tragedy，reflecting Chaplin's own life.He started testing actors for the role of the Kid just a few days after his baby son had died.Chaplin was known for being hard to please，and it is said that if he could，he would have played every role in every one of his films.When Chaplin visited a theatre，a dancer brought his son，Jackie Coogan，on stage，and Chaplin knew he had his co﹣star （联袂主演者）.Chaplin later wrote， "All children in some form have talents；the trick is to bring it out in them.With Jackie it was easy.
Like the Kid in the film，Chaplin and his brother Sydney grew up very poor.They lived in London and were raised by their mother.When Chaplin was 10 years old，his mum became too ill to loo after her sons，so they had to take care of themselves.He later wrote that the film sets in The Kid were based （基于）on the places where he and Sydney had lived with their mother as children. "Perhaps that's why the film had some truth，" he said.
（1）The second paragraph mainly talks about .
| A． |
why The Kid was made |

always visited the theatre alone |

was possibly talented in acting |
| C． |
knew much about Chaplin before |
| D． |
played every role in Chaplin's films |
（3）Which of the following is TRUE about Chaplin？

He had a poor childhood experience. |
| B． |
He was brought up by his father. |

You may study differently from your friends，but your study habits are not wrong!
Kelly and Maria are best friends with a lot in common.They love doing things together，such as going to movies and concerts，shopping，or just sitting at a small cafe.Since they take a lot of the same school subjects，they would love to study together，but they find this impossible.Their working styles are so completely different that they can't be in the same room while they are studying!
Kelly would like to study in a clean，open space，while Maria works best with books，papers and other things around her.Kelly prefers to study in a totally silent room，but Maria loves to play music or even have the TV on.Kelly can sit for hours without moving，and often gets all her homework done in one sitting.Maria，however，is always getting up，and says that she thinks best when she's on the move.
You might be asking yourself：which way of studying gets better results？Many people believe that a silent，tidy setting（环境）is the way to go，▲.Some research has even shown that outside noise and untidiness help some people focus（聚焦）their attention，because it makes them form a "wall" in their mind around what they are doing and improves their focus.
So，if you're a student who chooses to study while sitting at a table in a busy shopping center，don't worry about it.If you work in total silence，that's OK，too.Judging from Kelly 's and Maria's study habits，the best way to study is the way that works for you.In their very different ways，both of them do well in school，and both finish their work within the required time as well.
（1）Kelly and Maria are mentioned as an example in this passage to .
A.discuss two different study habits
B.compare the differences in their hobbies
C.show the importance of a good study habit
D.express the writer's worry about their friendship
（2）Which of the following is the best to fill in the blank in Paragraph 4？
A.and they have difficulty in study
B.and it can be true for most of them
C.but that doesn't seem necessarily true
D.but nobody does research on this question
（3）What can we infer from the last paragraph of this passage？
A.Students who like to study in silence will be more successful.
B.Both study habits can help students make progress in their studies.
C.Only a small number of students can study well in a noisy situation.
D.Friends with different study habits can do better by studying together.
（4）What can be the best title for the passage？

You've been learning words since you were a tiny baby.At first，you learned them only by hearing other people talk.Now that you're a reader，you have another way to learn words.What should you do when you come to a word and you think you don't know what it means？（1） .
Say it
First sound it out.Then say it to yourself.（2） .Sometimes you know a word in your head but you don't know what it looks like in print.So if you match up what you know and what you read ﹣ you have the word!
Use context
If this doesn't work，take the next step：look at the context the other words and sentences around it.Read this sentence：When it rained，the dog looked for shelter in the doorway.（3） .Rain and in the doorway might give you helpful information.
（4）
If the context doesn't help，look at the parts of the word.Does it have any parts you know？These can help you understand what it means.If you don't know the meaning of miner，try looking at parts of the word.You might know that a mine is a place underground where people get coal and other valuable things.A lot of times， ﹣er at the end of a word means "a person who does something".So a miner might be someone who works in a mine.
Look it up
If the three steps above don't work，you can look it up.（5） ，either a book or online.
Nobody knows the meaning of every word，but good readers know how to understand words they don't know.
Choose five sentences out of the six in the box to complete the passage.Each choice should be used only once.
A.Use word parts
B.Look at the words
C.It might sound like a word you know
D.You can find the word in a dictionary
E.Following some easy steps can help you
F.If the word shelter doesn't look familiar，look at the words around it
From an early age，we were taught that if we wanted to be successful，we had to study hard and get good results at school.In fact，good students may just end up doing jobs they don't like，and some even lead an unhappy life.Why is it like that？
In some parents' eyes，school grades matter most for their kids.In reality，there are many things to consider besides the school subjects，for example，how to be a happy person，what to do to keep healthy，and how to get along well with others.That is to say，school is not just enough if you want to have a great life.
Doing well in school is different from doing well in life.Studies show that people who failed at school may not end up failing in life.You may have already known that some famous people，like Thomas Edison and Steve Jobs，didn't do very well at school or even failed to finish school.In fact，there are a lot more than just the big shots who are successful in life without finishing school.They seize （抓住）every chance to learn and finally make it to the top.
Life is really a long lesson，so long that you can't define（界定）a person's success by just one section （部分）of it.If you have already finished school，keep learning because what you have learned at school will never be enough to live a satisfying life.If you are still studying，whether you are good or bad at school，don't take your school results too seriously as long as you have put your heart into it.Keep learning to make the most of your talents（天赋）.That's how you can live a happy and successful life.

A.Old habits die hard.
B.Leaning is a lifelong journey.
C.Good grades always promise a successful life.
Do you get lots of reading tasks as part of your homework？ You might wish that you could read faster．There are some people who say that you can learn to read at super﹣high speeds． But experts disagree on this idea．
"Speed reading is not actually possible，" said Elizabeth Schotter，a scientist at the University of South Florida， US． Schotter pointed out that people who say that they can teach others how to speed read are usually doing it to make money by selling courses and books．
In fact， speed reading has been made known to people since 1959， when US educator Evelyn Wood introduced a speed reading program． Several US presidents have even asked their officers to take speed reading courses． However， there is no real science behind speed reading．
Schotter explained that reading is a task difficult to finish． It includes four steps： seeing a word， getting back its meaning from your memory， connecting it to other words in the same sentence， and then moving on to the next word．This process uses many parts of the brain at one time． It can't be sped up．
Some people who say they are able to speed read are simply skimming． Skimming involves reading a passage quickly and only looking for certain words or sentences．
Skimmers can figure out the main idea of a passage﹣especially if it's a topic they're familiar with﹣﹣but they will not be able to remember all the pieces of information．
So is there a way to become a faster reader？ Research suggests that you should try to improve the number of your words and simply read more．
（1）According to Schotter， which of the following is TRUE？
A． It's good for students to read at super high speeds．
B． Speed reading courses are supported by real science．
C． Reading includes four steps，it's not easy to finish．
D． Speed reading courses and books are useful for us．
（2）What can we know from Paragraph 5？
A． Skimmers will not forget all the pieces of information．
B． You must read the passage carefully when you are skimming it．
C． Skimming focuses on all the words or sentences of a passage．
D． By skimming， skimmers may find the main idea of a passage．
（3）According to this passage， how to read faster？
A． Learn more words and read more．
B． Taking speed reading courses can help．
C． Read more books about speed reading．
D． See the words at super﹣high speeds．
Some researchers explain how most people form their social groups with people of their age．Especially， as children and teenagers， even adults， people make their friends based on proximity （邻近） more than anything else． Even in a college classroom，the students may not make friends with those who have similar personalities and interests． It's the people they really sit next to． Clearly， who stands to you has the greatest influence on you．As Jim Rohn has widely said． "You are average （平均） of five people you spend the most time with．"
Over the past ten months， I've paid Ryan， it Famous writer of several bestselling books， to help with
the book I'm writing． Working with him has shown me just how low my standards for my work are． For example， every time I send him a drab （草稿）， he shows me how it could be 10 times better，and he holds me to that standard．
▲ It's because that I don't know what I don't know． Working with Ryan has made me realize what is possible and what it takes to create something powerful．
Like Ryan，my business partner Richard has wonderful ideas and far different experience than I have．He has written 36 New York Times Bestsellers．He's been speaking and doing events for 20 years．Richard always performs at high levels，and he is also very strict with me because my performance is a reflection （反映） on him． It's not a bad thing because it creates high pressure （压力） to help me make great progress in organizing author training．
In a word，you need to stay with those people who can help you realize your level and potential．Staying with people who have higher standards is the fastest way for you to change．If you don't change your environment， your progress will be very slow． Who you stay with has huge importance． You can't ignore this．
（1）Why did the writer quote （引用） Jim Rohn's words in Paragraph 1？
A．To support the writer's opinion．
B．To introduce the writer's best friend．

B． It's not that my working ability was born low．
C． It's not that' e friends based on proximity．
D． It's not that I've paid Ryan to help me with my book．
（3）What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 4 refer to （指代）？
A． The writer's performance．
B． Jim Rohn's famous saying．
C． Richard's different experience．

（4）The writer mainly wants to tell us that ．

C． we'd better make friends with those who can hold us to higher levels
D． we should stay with those who have similar personalities and interests
Robots Are Now Teaching English!
Get ready． Robots are about to invade our classroom． From Korea to Japan to the United States， schools are putting English﹣speaking robots in front of their students． In Korea， robots are the new teaching assistants in a number of preschools and kindergartens． The young students say that the robots are fun， but are these children really learning anything？
I don't think a computer will ever be able to do what a teacher does． A teacher has to be able to respond to students as individuals （个体）．__▲__and a teacher has to change his or her teaching style to fit the needs of the student． I seriously doubt that a computer will ever be able to do this even though the big data （数据）is widely used in the world．
4 Comments on "Robots Are Now Teaching English!"
Sara says：
In my opinion， schools should spend money training human teachers rather than buying robots． Research shows that children learn more from real speakers than from recorded conversations．
Keiko says：
I don't think you can learn a language without real human interaction．After all， robots cannot think as humans do．
Hassan says：
Robots might be able to help people lean a language， but I don't think they should replace teachers because robots are just machines without human feelings．
Nancy says：
I think robots might be very helpful in the classroom． A child might be less afraid to make a mistake in front of a robot than in front of a real person．

Have you ever wanted to achieve a goal and ended up doing lots of research on how to achieve it？ As you learned more and more． it seemed you knew less and less． That is because when you learned a new concept （ 概念）， you found that there was a lot more to know about it．
Usually， people think they need to get more and more information before trying a new idea． There is nothing wrong with learning a lot， but when you let learning get in the way of doing，you will never get going．
One of the best ways to learn is to take action and learn from the results that you get from those actions． Don't be afraid of not being perfect and just take the first step． You will go further than those who are still in preparation． It's good to be prepared， but over﹣preparation in trying to reach a goal won't get you results． The knowledge and skills that you will need will be picked along the way．
If a baby wants to learn how to walk， it doesn't do it by just sitting there and thinking about how to walk． The best way for a baby to walk is to actually get up and start walking． Sure it may fall， but with every fall， it learns what is working and what is not and adjusts（ 153 to it． By doing this over and over， it will finally learn to walk． This is the method you should use when you want to achieve your goals as well．It works．
Learning more is great but if all you're doing is learning and not taking action， it's time to
change that， Just take the first step．
