Tips for waiting in line


When lining up at the supermarket

checkout counter, the lines next to us always seem to be moving

faster than the one that we are standing in.


Now the New York Times has put together

the research of scientists to give you some insights into the math

and psychology of queuing. It also offered tips on picking the

fastest line no matter if you’re lining up in a supermarket, a bank

or anywhere else.


Picking someone with a full

chart


US mathematician Dan Meyer believes

that a chart(购物车) full of items doesn’t tell the whole story.

“Every person requires a fixed amount of time to say hello, pay,

say goodbye and clear out of the lane,” he said. And that amount of

time is an average of 41 seconds per person.


On the other hand, the time that each

item takes to be rung up is only three seconds. That means if there

are five people ahead of you, each with ten items in their charts,

the waiting time will be 355 seconds. But if there is only one

person ahead of you ,with 50 items in the chart, the waiting time

is 191 seconds. You do the math.


Study the customer


    

How many people are ahead of you is one thing, and who they are is

another. For example, if they are old people – and this is not

ageist(年龄歧视的) – they tend to move slower and delay the checkout

process.


    

The items in their chart are also important. For example, four

bottles of the same milk will definitely go faster than four

completely different items.


Choose a “serpentine line”


In some places, there may be just one

line leading to several checkout counters. The person at the head

of the line goes to the next available counter. This is known as a

“serpentine(蛇形的) line”. You should always choose a serpentine line

because even if one of the cashiers or customers is slow, it won’t

hold up an entire line.


Go left


    

According to Robert Samuel, a US science writer, around 90 percent

of people are right-handed, which means they tend to go to the

right. So heading to the opposite direction – left –will give you a

better chance of finding a faster line.


If there are 6 people before you, and

they buy 72 items altogether, then you have to

wait 


   

about ________seconds.


   

A.

462             

B.

318            

C.

246             

D. 216


22.  What we needn’t consider

before deciding which line to stand in?


   A.

The number of people before

you.    

   B.

The quantity of the goods to check out before you.


   C.

What kind of people before

you.        

   D.

How many left-handed people before you.


23.  We can learn from

the passage that________.


    

A. most people are used to

choosing checkout counters on their right


   

B. we should always avoid lining up behind a crowded cart


   

C. 7 cups of the same kind

need as much time as 7 different ones to be checked

out


   

D. the cashiers and customers in a  “serpentine

line” are slow 

B

"Selfie," taking a picture of yourself

to post on social media, became an official word in the Oxford

dictionary in 2013. The idea seems simple, just pose and snap a

photo of yourself with your cell phone camera. How difficult could

that be?


But in 2014 a reported 15 people died

while taking selfies. That number has risen each year since then.

Thirty-nine deaths connected to selfies were reported in 2015. And,

this year has seen more than 70 such deaths.


Researchers from universities in the

U.S. and India have released findings from the first study of

deaths due to selfies. The investigators examined the causes

and characteristics of the

deaths.


The researchers found that people who

take selfies for sharing on social media often have a

narcissistic tendency. The report

says these people "use selfies as a form of self-identification and

ex-pression." They

may take selfies in more dangerous settings because they seek

greater attention.These dangerous situations can lead to injury,

and even death. The researchers define a selfie death as "death of

an individual or a group of people that could have been avoided had

the individual(s) not been taking a selfie."


One example of a dangerous selfie in

the study involved bicycle races. People sometimes get on the track

to take a picture of themselves with the racing bicycles behind

them. Crashes and injuries have resulted. Another example described

people standing on train tracks trying to get a selfie as a train

moves toward them from behind. The most common cause of selfie

death was falling from high places. It caused 32 of the 172 deaths

during the last two and one-half years. Drowning was another common

cause of death.


And it might be more dangerous to be a

man with a smartphone. Although women take more selfies, males were

far more likely to die during selfies. 75.5% of the reported deaths

were of men. About one-third of the 172 reported selfie deaths had

a single death while 24 incidents

involved the deaths of groups. Two of the incidents killed seven

people each.


24.  What’s the

passage mainly about?


    

A. selfie deaths on the rise

     

     

 B. the danger of taking

selfies


    

C. what a selfie death

is                   

D. the causes of selfie deaths


25.  What does the

underlined phrase in

Paragraph 4 probably refer to?


    

A. A physical state.    

     

 B. A psychological

state .


    

C.  A

difficulty.                   

D.A camera.


26.  Which of the

following is an example of selfie deaths?


    

A. A man addicted to taking selfies

died.


   

B. A taxi-driver died with one of his passengers

taking selfies.


    

C. A man fell off the cliff while taking a selfie

and died .


   

D. An old lady died from heart attack when taking

a selfie.


27.  From the passage,

we can learn that________.


    

A. selfie deaths are always single

deaths


    

B. women are more likely to die during selfies


    

C. it is dangerous to participate in bicycle

races


    

D.selfie deaths happened in various ways

C

I worked lots of extra hours my first

Christmas season as a saleslady for Dancer’s, the department store

in my small hometown. I’d started the job, which paid 85 cents an

hour, that summer of 1966 after getting a work permit at age 15. I

soon learned how to fit shoes, measure and cut cloth, and keep the

shelves of shirts and underwear nice and neat.


We closed at 6 p.m. on Christmas Eve,

and at 5:55 a local farmer came in to find gifts for his wife. I

knew Mr. Johnson, whose daughter was in my class, so I went to help

him. We wandered through the sweaters, dresses and skirts, and

nightgowns(睡衣). We talked about size and color and what I thought

Mrs. Johnson would like. After nearly an hour, Mr. Johnson decided

on a nightgown with pretty pink slippers to match.


By my third Christmas at Dancer’s, I

was an experienced salesclerk. Mrs. Johnson had come into the store

in late summer, and we visited while I helped her shop. As she

commented on pretty colors and design, I made mental notes. When

Mr. Johnson made his last-minute appearance on Christmas Eve, I was

ready. I told him, “Mrs. Johnson was in not too long ago, and I

noticed how much she liked this royal blue sweater. She’d also told

me that she really needed new boots. I’d found some perfect boots

in her size and had put them aside for Christmas Eve. ” Mr. Johnson

was impressed, and I think more than a little relieved. We

completed the sale by 6:10 with everything wrapped in paper and

ribbons!


I worked for Dancer’s three more

holiday seasons and was always there just before closing on

Christmas Eve, when Mr. Johnson knew I had the answers he needed.

Years later, I can well remember he once told me that the big

stores in cities had more goods and lovely Christmas fantasies in

their window but it’s only in a small town that neighbors take care

of neighbors.


28.  What do we know

about the author’s job in Dancer’s ?


   A.

She enjoyed her work in Dancer’s .


   B.

She worked long hours to get a good pay.


   C.

It took her a long time to know what she should do.


   D.

She could also help some customer make decisions.


29.What did the author do before Mr.

Johnson’s appearance on her third Christmas

in   Dancer’s?


    

A. She talked with his daughter.


    

B. She kept his wife’s need and taste in

mind. 


    

C. She kept an eye on his wife for quite a long time.


    

D. She looked into the sales record of the store.


30.  What can be

inferred from the passage?


  

A.The author worked for Dancer’s for 5 years in all.


   B.

Mr. Johnson doubted whether the author could help him.


   C.

Mr. Johnson valued the sincere relationship in his

neighborhood.  


   D.

Mr. Johnson didn’t believe the big stores in cities had what he

wanted. 


31.  What may be the

best title for the text?


   A.

My Working Experience in Dancer’s


   B.

Mr. Johnson’s Christmas gift


   C.

Last-minute Appearance on Christmas Eve


   D.

Christmas Gifts with neighbors’ consideration

D

  A new

‘paparazzi-proof’ scarf has got heatedly welcomed since lanched. A

new ‘paparazzi-proof’ scarf could be a game-changer for

celebrities(名流) who prefer to shy away from the stage light. The

ISHU scarf is the creation of Dutch-born fashion entrepreneur Saif

Siddiqui and is designed to ‘give people their right to privacy

back’. A host of celebrities including Cameron Diaz, singer Joe

Jonas, Bayern Munich footballer Jerome Boateng and music producer

Major Lazer have worn the ISHU after it was spotted at London

Fashion Week last year.


  It works by

reflecting the light back into a camera, effectively becoming

‘invisibility clothes’ for celebrities who don’t want their photo

taken.Anyone wearing the scarf is protected from mobile flash

photography, with the fashion accessory’s fabric effectively

blocking out any unwanted pictures, although it doesn’t stop

no-flash photographs from being taken.


  The 28-year-old

Siddiqui was inspired while visiting family in Amsterdam in 2009

when his friends attempted to take a photo of him using an iPhone

in front of some bikes.“He noticed that the bike’s reflector

carried the flash of his mobile camera in a way that confused the

faces of his friends in the picture,” the ISHU website explains.

“He immediately realized that if developed into the right product,

this feature would be an ideal solution for his friends and is now

available to the public who want to keep their private moments in

public private. “Saif put together a team of experts who dug into

the science of light and reflection, and how to blend technology

with fashion.”


  He told Decoded

Magazine: “The ISHU scarf effectively allows an individual to

control what pictures and videos are taken of him. “There are no

more unwanted pictures and videos on Snapchat, Instagram, or

Facebook! Everyone carries a phone with them nowadays that has an

amazing camera. So, it all made sense to me.” More ISHU products

are set to launch in August, with mobile phone cases set to launch

in the next few weeks. The ISHU is currently sold out but you can

pre-order it online for £289.


32.  Why did Saif

design the ‘paparazzi-proof’ scarf?


  A. To help protect

people’s privacy.


  B. To make a rich

profit from the celebrities.


  C. Because the scarf

is to get a heated welcome.


  D. To dig into the

science of light and reflection.


33.  

How did Saif get the creative idea of producing scarves?


  A. He was inspired

by the photographs of bike.


  B. He was inspired

when his friends attempted to take a photo of him.


  C. He was inspired

when finding his friends’ picture was not ideal.


  D. He was inspired

while cycling with his family members.


34.  

Which of the following statement might be true?


     

A. The paparazzi-proof scarf can prevent any unwanted pictures

being taken.


     

B. There might be fewer unwanted pictures and videos on

internet.


     

C. ISHU will be only used to effectively control pictures

taken.


     

D. Customers will mainly buy ISHU products online.


 35. Who might most

need the ‘paparazzi-proof’

scarf?      

    A.

reporter         

B.

fans.        

C.

photographers       

D. singers

Make Your Brain Smarter


You know that eating a sensible diet and getting plenty of

exercise help make your body healthy and strong. But did you know

that there are ways to make your brain healthier and smarter?

Studies show that when the brain is forced to do something new, it

creates new neural (神经的)pathways.___36___


● Limit your TV viewing


Watching an average TV show requires very little brain power and

brings the same result as neglecting physical exercise. ___37___ If

you watch TV, choose something educational and

informative.


● Use your non-dominant hand


If you are right-handed, use your left hand for everyday

activities, or use your right hand if you are left-handed.___38___

Brushing our teeth is something most of us do daily. We really

don’t put that much thought into it — but maybe we should. Experts

suggest that we can stimulate this right brain by changing things

up and working with our non-dominant hand. So the next time you

brush your teeth, open the tube, apply your toothpaste and brush

with the opposite hand.


● Shower with your eyes closed


Hop in the shower and shut your eyes. Even if you drop the soap

— that’s okay. Use your different senses. ___39___ Using your

fingers to make fine distinctions between objects or textures can

rewire the brain areas involved in touch suggests Larry Katz, a

professor of neurobiology at Duke University Medical Center and

author. This has been true for brain-imaging experiments with blind

Braille readers and monkeys trained to use their fingers to get

food.


● ___40___


Can playing “Chopsticks” on the piano make your smarter? Well,

according to a study published in The Journal of Neuroscience, it

can. Kids who received at least three years of instrumental music

training outperformed children without training in fine motor

skills, vocabulary and nonverbal reasoning skills. Apparently,

people who are better able to move to a beat show more consistent

brain responses to speech than those with less rhythm. The study

findings suggest that musical training might sharpen the brain’s

response to language — making you a little smarter.



A  Learn a new

language.


B  Move to the beat of your own drum.


C  Your brain will become weak just as your

muscles do.


D  Walking for exercise requires little time

and brings the same result as running.


E  Doing familiar things in a new way will

cause your brain to create new neural networks.


F  The more pathways you have, the faster you

can think and the better memory you will have.


G  Searching for the soap or shampooing while

feeling the textures with your eyes closed works


   your brain and helps make

you smarter.

Dear Tom,


I’m glad to learn that you will come to Huizhou University to

study Chinese for six months. You asked me to look for a Chinese

host family for you in your last e-mail and I have found one, which

I think should meet all your requirements.


The family’s flat, located in the center of the city, is a

little far away from the university where you will learn Chinese.

But it is within easy reach of the bus station, so you don’t have

to bother about the transport. The host family is made up of four:

a married couple and their two sons. The host and the hostess are

considerate and friendly, and their elder son is about your age. As

for the monthly rent, it is about 1000 yuan, which ensures you a

family type of living at a low cost. As the family requests, you

are supposed to do some housework, such as mopping the floor, and

doing the dishes. You won’t find a better choice than

this.


  I’m looking forward to your

arrival!                  


Yours ,


Li Hua
