Children are naturally curious about the world around them. When Chase Hansen was only 4 years old, he encountered homeless people for the first time while shopping with his dad at an outdoor mall in Salt Lake City, Nevada.  It’s no wonder that he had a lot of questions.

“Chase looked at me and said, ‘Dad, who are these people? Why don’t they have a place to stay?’” John Hansen recalled. “After I explained that they had run into hard times and were homeless, I knew that we were looking at an educational opportunity. My son wanted to help them.”

The father and son convinced a local Jamba Juice store to donate more than 100 smoothies(果汁)and the pair gave them out to homeless people in a park.

After that, they came up with an even better idea. “I wanted a way to get to know people better, “Chase said. ”So, my dad and I decided to start taking some of the homeless people we’d met out to lunch.

“A lot of people walk right past homeless people and don’t see the person,” he said. “I know now that they’re people just like us. They want to make a connection and not feel so alone in the world.”

Hundreds of lunches later, they run a self-funded charity called Project Empathy(同情)to help inspire others to meet and to create relationships with the homeless people in their neighborhoods. The organization provides a list of resources that can help homeless people with food, housing and employment.

John said that what started as a way to spend quality time with his son has turned into a passion for both of them. “Chase and I realized that the country needed an army of people to practice empathy, and that by doing something as simple as taking a homeless person to lunch, we could maybe inspire others to do the same, ”he said. “Any time you can help to give someone a voice, it’s empowering.

4. Which of the following can best describe Chase Hansen?

A. Curious and caring. B. Knowledgeable and kind.

C. Successful and talented. D. Generous and ambitious.

5. Why did John and his son take some homeless people out to lunch initially?

A. To help them to find the suitable shelter.

B. To make friends with the homeless people.

C. To do some research and prepare for a project.

D To have a better understanding of the homeless people.

6. What’s the father and son super team’s goal?

A. To offer jobs to the homeless. B. To change the social-economic conditions.

C. To donate more smoothies to the homeless. D. To inspire more people to help the homeless.

7. What’s the best title of the text?

A. The Terrible Situation of Homeless People

B. The Relationship Between Father and Son

C. Father and Son Help Homeless People One Meal at a Time

D. Project Empathy Encourages People to Practice Empathy

C

One Chinese startup has apparently developed technology that allows it to identify individuals by their walk, even if their face is covered or they have their back to the camera.

Known as “gait recognition”, the technology invented by artificial intelligence startup Watrix analyses thousands of metrics (指标) about a person’s walk, from their body shape and the angle of arm movement to their posture and whether they have a toe-in or toe-out gait. All these individual features go into database that the software then goes through when attempting to identify people. According to an official statement from Watrix, the accuracy rate of gait technology at the laboratory level exceeds 96 percent.

Facial recognition technology has come a long way in recent years, but it still has a fundamental weakness — it needs to “see” people’s faces in order to identify them, so if someone’s face is covered their back is to the camera, it’s basically useless. Gait recognition, on the other hand, is much more reliable works from virtually any angle, and because it analyses so many metrics, it can identify subjects even if attempt to cover their legs. Disguises or fake limps are not very effective in fooling the technology either.

“Covering your legs would reduce the recognition score but we analyse all of a person’s body,” Huang Yongzhen, co-founder and chief executive of Watrix, said in an interview. “With facial recognition probably need to look into a camera-cooperation is not needed for them to be recognized by our technology.”

Watrix revealed the first version of their gait recognition technology in October of last year and since been in talks with security companies from Singapore, India, Russia, the Netherlands and Czech Republic for contracts. The technology has also been tested by public security officials for thousands of hours and used to solve dozens of police cases. Authorities in Shanghai and Beijing are already using recognition to detect wanted criminals and identify jaywalkers (乱穿马路的人).

The current version of gait recognition software isn’t yet capable of detecting people in real time the Chinese startup claims that it’s able to analyze an hour’s worth of video footage in just 10 minutes over 94% accuracy.

8. How could Watrix guarantee the accuracy of “gait recognition”?

A. By checking the angle of people’s arm movement.

B. By combining facial recognition with people’s walk.

C. By setting up a database of numerous individuals’ metrics.

D. By analyzing thousands of features of people’s legs and toes.

9. What advantage does gait technology have over facial recognition?

A. Unlimited angles. B. Free gestures.

C. No need to cover. D. Active cooperation.

10. What can we learn from the fifth paragraph?

A. Watris has found several cooperative partners for its first version.

B. Gait recognition has been widely used in the field of public security.

C. Watrix is trying to extend the use of the technology in Chinese big cities.

D. Gait technology has been proved beneficial in identifying wanted criminals.

11. Which of the following can best describe the future of the technology?

A. Challenging. B. Promising. C. Profitable. D. Unknown.

D

Our clothes do a lot for us. They keep us warm in the winter or cool while we’re working out. They let us dress to impress or comfortably veg out on the couch with the TV on. But some researchers think our clothes could be doing even more. Those scientists and engineers are dreaming up new ways to make clothes safer, more comfortable or just more convenient.

Some ideas for new clothes aim to protect people from harm. One new shoe design, for example, features pop-out spikes (鞋钉) on the sole that grip the ground. This could help people keep their footing on slippery or uneven ground. A new fabric coating, meanwhile, could absorb and neutralize (中和) some chemical weapons. That coating is made from a metal-organic framework that breaks down harmful compounds. It could offer protection to people in war-torn countries.

Not all advanced clothing is designed to save lives. Some could just make clothes more comfortable. One day, for instance, you may not need to layer up to stay warm. Fabric filled with nanowires could reflect your body heat back onto your skin. Electric current humming through those metal threads could provide warmth, too. This maybe especially useful for hikers, soldiers or others working in super cold conditions.

Some researchers have dream up wholly new uses for clothing —like turning wearers into walking power outlets. Flexible solar panels sewn into fabric could absorb the sun to recharge phones or other devices on the go. Another team threaded fabric with magnetized (磁化的) copper and silver to write data into fabrics. Such data-packed fabric could be used as a hands-free key or form of ID.

Many of these ideas have not yet left the lab—and they’re still pretty far from hitting retail (零售) shelves. But inventors hope these and other innovations could someday let you get more from your clothes.

12. What do the underlined words “veg out” in paragraph 1 probably mean?

A Relax. B. Stand out. C. Work. D. Dream about.

13. Why do the new shoes feature pop-out spikes on the sole?

A. To make them comfortable. B. To make them fashionable.

C. To prevent people from slipping. D. To turn wearers into walking power outlets.

14. What kind of clothes are suitable for hikers?

A. Coats filled with nanowires. B. Shoes with pop-out spikes on the sole.

C. Clothes with a new fabric coating. D. Clothes made of data-packed fabric.

15. What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. Many of these ideas are not realistic.

B. Many smart clothes are too expensive to afford.

C. People will benefit more from their clothes in future.

D. Many comfortable clothes will come to the market soon.

Sam was a junior high school student. He lived in a community in Charlotte and usually had little exposure to country life. So much of what he knew about plants came from text-books. Sam was a kind-hearted person. He longed for a chance to explore nature and he wanted to do his part to beautify the world.

Finally, the opportunity came. On Arbor Day (植树节), his class organized a trip to a local village to plant trees. Sam was excited about it and couldn’t wait to tell his mom the good news. So the next day, Sam and his mom went to buy some tools for planting trees, including a shovel(铲), a bucket, gloves and so on.

On the day of the event, Sam and his classmates arrived early at the starting point. It was a beautiful day and everyone looked particularly happy. With the tools in hand, Sam got into the bus with everyone else and headed off to their destination.

As soon as they reached the village, all the students were divided into three teams by their teacher. One team was responsible for planting the trees, one team for shovelling the soil and one team for watering the trees. At the teacher’s command, everyone started to do their job.

However, it was the first time that many of the students had taken part in planting trees, so they had no idea about how to start. Of course, Sam was one of them. Fortunately, their teacher was a middle-aged man from the countryside who had some knowledge of planting trees. In order to set an example to the students, the teacher started to plant trees himself. After watching the teacher plant the trees, everyone also became busy. Before long, they planted hundreds of trees. Sam watched very carefully, not wanting to miss any of the details. Finally, Sam learned how to plant trees by himself and felt happy.
