My dad was a farmer in the Midwest and he spent his winters selling insurance(保险). Dad could really talk up anyone and his favorite thing to do was find out their income. Once we were at Chicago's O'Hare airport. Dad was sitting with me as I waited for my flight to Fort Lauderdale. A Russian guy who sat down next to my dad could not speak a word of English but this did not stop my dad. He found out his business, how many children he had and of course how much he made.
I used to be a little embarrassed by this, but I changed later. It was in the last year of dad's life. As I was home visiting with my husband and twins and I was in the car with my mom, she told me a story about how she was in the doctor's office with dad and how he was his usual self-talking away to the others in the waiting room. She said he started talking to this young man in a wheel chair who could not talk, could not move his arms or head, really couldn't do anything. But dad was asking questions and got the young man to smile in response. And he carried on like that with the disabled man till he was called back to the doctor's office. When the young man and his father got up to see the doctor, the father of the young man came over and shook my dad's hands and said, "Thank you for speaking to my son. Most people just turn away when they see him.''
My father ended up dying later that month, a sudden heart attack. Fortunately, all the 9 children of his had been home that summer to visit. I told this story at his funeral(葬礼). Truly, my dad was one who never knew a stranger.

Thousands of people have headed to an area in the western United States to search for a hidden treasure. A wealthy art collector and businessman from the area named Forrest Fenn says he hid the treasure. The searchers follow nine clues(线索) from a poem that Fenn wrote. They consider the poem their “treasure map”.
The treasure hunters believe the prize could be hidden in an area that starts in New Mexico and stretches all the way to the northern state of Montana, covering an area of millions of square kilometers. Many believe the treasure is real. Others, however, think it does not exist
An estimated 350, 000 hunters from around the world have come to the area seeking the treasure. One of them is Sacha Johnston. She is a single mother. “I have been hunting for the treasure for five years and I'm not regretful about my choice,” Johnston said. She thinks she has made good progress on guessing some of the clues. So, she's happy and has kept her search going.
Forrest Fenn spoke to VOA from his home in Santa Fe. The house is filled with priceless art pieces collected over his lifetime. He talked about volunteering to fight in the Vietnam War in 1968 and narrowly escaping death several times during his service.
Fenn said doctors found cancer in his body in 1988 and told him he only had about six months to live, So he decided to put pieces of gold, jewels and other valuables in a bronze box and leave it for others to enjoy after he was gone. But Fenn ended up beating cancer. In 2010, he decided to hide the box. “I wanted to give people something to look forward to and everyone is hopeful,” he said.
when asked whether he thinks people are close to finding the treasure, Fenn said he really has no idea. “It is possible my treasure box could be found this afternoon, or it could be 100 years or 500 years. Who knows?” he said.

Parties and social gatherings no longer excite us the same way they once did. This is not due to a lack of desire to socialize, but the smartphone.
At parties, people focus more on their smartphones than on their drinks. According to a recent study from International Data Corporation, over half of all Americans have a smartphone and reach it the moment they wake up, keeping it in hand all day. In addition, too many people are using smartphones while driving and as a result, they get into car crashes. 34 percent of teens admit to text while driving,and they confirm that texting messages are the major interruption while driving. People’s attachment (依恋) to their smartphones is unbelievably becoming more important than the lives of themselves and others.
Just as drivers dismiss the importance of focusing while on the road, many people also fail to recognize the significance of human interaction. When with their friends, some people pointlessly (无谓地) check or send messages in the presence of their friends., which means that their friends are less important. In addition, relying on our smartphones to make friends does not give us the same advantages as making new friends in the real world. Face-to-face conversations will give us the chance to improve our communication skills in the long run.
As many people risk their lives and the lives of people around them just to send a text or mindlessly check their messages, smartphones are in many ways more dangerous to people. The technology shows the achievement weaken the value of communication. Not only is the smartphone affecting our desire to interact face to face, but it is also lowering people’s ability to communicate.
28. What is the purpose of this text?
A. To advise us to be cautious about the addiction to the smartphone.
B. To ask us to pay attention to communication skills.
C. To call for an end to the use of the smartphone while driving.
D. To express a concern about the overuse of the smartphone.
29. How is the second paragraph developed?
A. By analyzing the effects. B. By listing numbers.
C. By giving examples. D. By comparing facts.
30. The author advocates(提倡) making new friends _______________.
A. under a free circumstance. B. in different ways.
C. in a face-to-face way. D. by using smartphones.
31. Too much dependence on the smartphone leads to the fact that _______________.
A. people’s communication skills are weakened
B. parties and gatherings limit people’s social circle
C. face-to-face communication becomes less important
D. people are more and more narrow-minded
D
Teens and their teachers know well that early-morning classes can be tiring. Doctors now have a solution: for better teen health, push the sleep button on school start times.
Janet Croft, who studies teens and sleep at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta high schools, says, “Most teens are actually brain dead when they go to these early classes. Too many students start their day as walking zombies (僵尸).”
One report stresses the importance of sleep for teens and describes the dangers from not getting enough sleep. Studies in the past have shown over and over that teens lacking sleep face higher risks of being overweight and being frustrated.
Many teens get too little sleep because they attend middle and high schools that start earlier than 8:30 am. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), those early start times throw off a student’s internal body rhythm, called the circadian clock (生物钟). Too little sleep disturbs that clock and causes problems.
The study conducted by the National Sleep Foundation found that nearly 6 in every 10 middle school students and 9 in 10 high school students are sleeping too little. Yet many parents aren’t aware of this. In the same study, 7 of every 10 parents said they believed their kids did sleep enough. That study shows too many parents are unaware of the science on teen-sleep needs, says Owens.
Kyla Wahlstrom, a former teacher, who has spent a lot of time with teens lacking sleep, says: “An incredible number of students are either sleeping at their desks or sitting there like a lump (傻大个), not asking questions or raising their hands.”
Getting enough sleep can help a teen on the inside, too. Several studies have shown that children and teenagers who don’t sleep enough are more likely to become obese, or extremely overweight. Teens lacking sleep also are more likely to suffer from anxiety, depression and mood disorders. It’s time to recognize how important sleep is, particularly to teenagers.
32. What does the author want to stress by mentioning “walking zombies” in Paragraph 2?
A. The students are in a bad state of learning in early classes.
B. The students are fond of computer games.
C. The students are so used to staying up very late.
D. The students’ brain health is worrying.
33. According to AAP in Paragraph 4, early school schedules affect teens by ________.
A. increasing their course load B. affecting their performance at school
C. affecting their circadian clock D. disturbing their relationships with classmates
34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The number of teens lacking sleep is growing fast.
B. It is really necessary to adjust school start times in the morning.
C. Physical and mental health are equally important to teens.
D. Teachers should take measures to raise students’ interest in learning.
35. What’s the main idea of the text?
A. Parents are unaware of their kids’ sleep condition.
B. Being overweight is very common among American teens.
C. Researchers have found out how sleep is related to teens’ study.
D. Early school start times can turn teens into the walking dead.

Tips on Learning a New Language Before Travelling
Whenever you travel to a foreign place, it is helpful knowing a bit of the local language.
36 But speaking the local language shows you care and it will help you mix with the locals easily. To learn a language, you do not have to take full time classes. You can follow some of the tips to pick up some basics quickly before that trip.
Practise constantly. The more you study the language, the better. 37 Think of it like learning an instrument or training for a marathon. The amount of time you'll need depends on the language you're learning, how often you practice and your learning style.
38 One good way to practise is to use the language you’re learning. And who is better to speak a language with than a native speaker who can train you better and correct your mistakes? Find one on the internet or in real life and strike a conversation with them. There are some free language exchange websites where you can find native speakers to practise with. 39
Download a language app. Your app store offers a vast amount of options for language learning. Apps like Google Translate, Duolingo, Bilingual or Hi Native can help you to learn languages quickly. 40 But they are not necessarily the best choice if you're short on time and trying to master the basics. They can also help a lot when you're struggling to communicate while on vacation.
A. Learning a language doesn't happen overnight.
B. Remember to use the language.
C. You may not know how to pronounce the words correctly.
D. Those apps can help you learn the language effectively.
E. Speak to native speakers.
F. Trips can help make the process fun and easy.
