Learning New Languages thrugh VR Visits
On a Friday mrning in Nvember（2017）in Hustn, Texas, a grup f 12 Rice University undergraduates in Jayung Sng's secnd-year Krean language class tk ut their smartphnes, pened the YuTube app and fastened their phnes t virtual-reality headsets. Within secnds, they were 30 t a typical café in Seul, Suth Krea and were encuraged t begin a situatinal cnversatin with Krean peers, whse statements and questins had been 31
This is the way the innvative wrld f language 32 is ging as virtual-reality learning vides enter the classrm and prvide students with the clsest thing t real-life situatin that they culd pssibly get.
"A lt f literature says that it is really imprtant t be expsed t the language and culture in rder t succeed in language learning," said Sng, a lecturer f Krean whse papers fcused n cmparing a face-t-face and virtual-wrld envirnment fr 33 secnd-language learners' interactinal cmpetence. "But technically, it wuld be bard fr students t g t Krea and learn Krean there, s I wanted t bring that setting t the classrm s that students can 34 it with the virtual-reality glasses and their cellphnes."
Sng is ne f the first instructrs in the university's Schl f Humanities' Center fr Languages and Intercultural Cmmunicatin t incrprate the technlgy in her classrm.
In recent years, 35 fr Krean language classes at Rice has dubled t mre than 100 students per year. A key driver, accrding t Sng, is Suth Krea's exprt f pp culture, fueled by the ppularity f Krean pp（K-pp）music and vides n YuTube and serialized TV K-dramas.
Other virtual-reality scenaris that Sng's students engage in include shpping in a supermarket, traveling n the subway and visiting a dctr's ffice.
"This lcal setting…really gives it the real-life situatin experience f learning language and culture," said Siyu Geng, a senir 36 in mathematical ecnmic analysis.
"The wrld is getting int a multilingual and multicultural era," Sng said. "In this time, it's very useful t learn freign language and culture t becme 37 prfessinals in this linguistically and culturally diverse wrld."

By 2030, 60 percent f the wrld's ppulatin is expected t live in big cities. Hw all thse peple live, and what their lives are like, will 38 imprtant chices leaders make tday and in the cming years.
Technlgy has the pwer t help peple live in cmmunities that are mre 39 t their needs and that can actually imprve their lives. Fr example, Beijing, trubled by air pllutin, is testing a 23-ft-tall air 40 that cleans up smg, filters the bad particles（微粒）and releases clear air.
This isn't a visin f life in the family cmedy The Jetsns. It's real urban cmmunities respnding in real-time t changing weather, times f day and citizen needs. These effrts can cver entire cmmunities. They can vary frm mnitring traffic t keeping cars mving efficiently r measuring air 41 t warn residents when pllutin levels climb.
Using data and electrnic sensrs in this way is ften 42 as building "smart cities," which are the subject f a majr push t imprve hw cities functin. In part a respnse t unreasnable infrastructure（基础设施）design and urban planning f the past, smart cities 43 real-time mnitring, analysis and imprvement f city decisin-making.

Smart city prjects are big investments that are suppsed t drive scial 44 Decisins made early in the 45 determine what exactly will change. But mst research and planning regarding smart cities is driven by the technlgy, 46 the needs f the citizens. Little attentin is given t the scial, plicy and rganizatinal changes that will be required t ensure smart cities are nt just technlgically cmprehensive but intelligently 47 t their residents' needs. Design will make the difference between smart city prjects ffering great prspect r actually increasing r even widening the existing gaps in unequal ways their cities serve residents.
A key 48 f smart cities is that they create efficiency. Well-designed technlgy tls can 49 gvernment agencies, the envirnment and residents.

（A）
A culture that values achievement and prgress will discurage peple frm "wasting" time. In religius scieties, custms specify times f the day, week, r year fr prayer and religius celebratins. If an individual tries t make an appintment during a sacred hliday, he r she culd unknwingly ffend a religius persn. Scial manners determine apprpriate times fr visit, meetings, and even phne calls.
Punctuality is imprtant in American business, academic and scial settings. The imprtance f punctuality is taught t yung children in schl. Peple wh keep appintments are cnsidered dependable. If peple are late t jb interviews, appintments r classes, they are ften viewed as unreliable and irrespnsible. In the business wrld, "time is mney" and cmpanies may fine their executives fr being late t business meetings. Of curse, it was nt always pssible t be punctual. Scial and business manners als prvide rules fr late arrivals. Calling n the telephne if ne is ging t be mre than a few minutes late fr scheduled appintments is cnsidered plite and is ften expected. Keeping a date r a friend waiting beynd ten t twenty minutes is cnsidered rude. On the ther hand, arriving thirty minutes late t sme parties is acceptable.
Respecting deadlines is als imprtant in academic and prfessinal circles. It is expected that deadlines fr class assignments r business reprts will be met. Whether it is a questin f arriving n time r f meeting a deadline, peple are culturally cnditined t regulate time.
Time is tangible; ne can "gain time", "spend time", "waste time", "save time", r even "kill time"! The treatment f time as a pssessin influences the way time is carefully divided. Generally, Americans are taught t d ne thing at a time and may be uncmfrtable when an activity is interrupted. Visitrs wh "drp by" withut prir ntice may interrupt their hst's persnal time. Thus, calling friends n the telephne befre visiting them is generally preferred t visitrs "drpping by". T accmmdate ther peple's schedules. Americans make business plans and scial engagements several days r weeks in advance.
50. Wh are cnsidered reliable and respnsible accrding t the passage?
A. Peple wh make appintments during sacred hlidays.
B. Peple wh always have gd plans and save time.
C. Peple wh wuld nt like t disturb thers

Sectin C
Directins: Read the fllwing passage. Fill in each blank with a prper sentence given in the bx. Each sentence can be used nly nce. Nte that there are tw mre sentences than yu need.
Can Happiness Be Bught?
There is a Web site called the "Wrld Database f Happiness". It cmbines and analyzes the results f hundreds f surveys frm arund the wrld that have been cnducted n life satisfactin. Mst f the findings are predictable, but a few are surprising.
57 it is quite cmmn t say that mney can't buy happiness, but the ld saying seems t be supprted by research. Many peple still stick t the belief that gaining riches will be the answer t all their prblems, yet they are prbably mistaken.
Studies have been carried ut n peple wh acquired sudden wealth, such as lttery winners. In mst cases, after the initial jy had wrn ff, peple were nt left with a sense f lasting happiness. 58 Previusly cntented peple cntinue t be cntented, while thse wh were miserable befre sink back int misery.
If material wealth des nt bring happiness, then what des? Perhaps happiness has smething t d with where yu live. The authrities at the Wrld Database n Happiness have surveyed levels f happiness in different cuntries. Other surveys cnsistently pint t the imprtance f relatinships. 59 The Web site suggests that falling in lve and having children are tw f the situatins that bring the greatest happiness.
60 Peple increasingly spend mre time alne watching TV r surfing the Internet rather than spending time with family. Can technlgy truly make peple happy? It is t difficult t tell, but ne thing is sure: If the Web site's research is accurate, time spent with yur family is a better investment than time spent making mney.

Alexander Fleming（1881-1955）
