Subject: Handheld Scanners
Ms. Hu, I received the parcel from Scan Technology 1 piece. The scanner model they sent is correct, and the quantity is right. However, I've discovered the cables and connectors are all wrong. They are not suitable for the model 8021101.
Can you do me a small favor and go through the product information website and see if the cables and connectors are still compatible (兼容的）with the 8021101 scanners? I have no wish to unpack the cables and connectors and try connecting them to the scanners. I believe we will have problem asking for an exchange if the cables and connectors are not compatible. If the website suggests an incompatibility, please contact Dan Richman and request an exchange for the correct model. (Refer to the invoice for his e-mail address.)
I will only use the scanners for our project once we have resolved the exchange issue. We should not proceed unless we get confirmation (证实）on their compatibility. I am looking to resolve this in the shortest possible time as it would be disastrous to wait for this exchange without making progress on the project.

It is bad to have food stuck between your teeth for long periods of time. This is because food attracts germs(细菌); germs produce acid, and acid hurts your teeth and gums. Flossing (使用牙线) helps to remove the food that gets stuck between your teeth. This explains why flossing helps to keep your mouth healthy, but some doctors say that flossing can also be good for your heart.
It may seem strange that something you do for your teeth can have any effect on your heart. Doctors have come up with a few ideas about how flossing works to keep your heart healthy. One idea is that the germs that hurt your teeth can leave the mouth and travel into your blood. Germs that get into the blood can then attack your heart. Another idea is based on the fact that when there are too many germs in your mouth, the body tries to fight against there germs. For some reason, the way the body fights these mouth germs may end up weakening the heart overtime.
Not every doctor agrees about these ideas. Some doctors think that the link between good flossing habits and good heart health is only a coincidence. The incidence (发生率) of two or more events is completely random, as they do not admit of any reliable cause and effect relationship between them. For example, every time I wash my car, it rains. This does not mean that when I wash my car, I somehow change the weather. This is only a coincidence. Similarly, some doctors think that people who have bad flossing habits just happen to also have heart problems, and people who have good flossing habits just happen to have healthy hearts.
The theory that flossing your teeth helps to keep your heart healthy might not be true. But every doctor agrees that flossing is a great way to keep your teeth healthy. So even if flossing does not help your heart, it is true to help your teeth. This is enough of a reason for everyone to floss their teeth
every day.
5. From the passage, we know that ________.
A. food stuck between your teeth may hurt your teeth
B. all of the doctors agree that flossing is good for your heart
C. doctors' judgment about flossing is based on medical research
D. not every doctor thinks flossing helps to keep your teeth healthy
6. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 is to ________.
A. provide an example B. make a comparison
C. introduce a new topic D. develop the previous statement
7. Which of the following best states the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. It is a fact that flossing can help your heart as well as your teeth.
B. There is no good reason to believe that flossing will help your heart.
C. Because doctors find flossing won't help your heart, it is useless to floss.
D. Even if flossing is only good for your teeth, you should still do it every day.
8. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Flossing by Coincidence B. How to Keep Your Teeth Healthy
C. Flossing Habits and Healthy Hearts D. Why Doctors Disagree About Flossing
C
University graduates Mallorie Brodie and Lauren Hasegawa, who invented a smartphone app that tracks construction defects for commercial builders, had a tiger by the tail.
Bridgit, which they founded in 2012, launched a cloud-based communications platform that helped manage defects on construction sites, which can delay projects and result in costly repairs if left unchecked. The smartphone application lets site supervisors（监管人员） take photos of cracks or damaged paint, share them with employees and track the problems to solution.
More than 600 subcontractors used the pilot version in many building sites before the commercial version, called Closeout, officially launched.
Feedback(反馈)was so good that they began to wonder: Why limit their invention to a specific industry? Why not turn it into some kind of a handy tool for consumers too? This became their dilemma. In other words, should they stay the course or look for wider applications of their app?
The experts surveyed all agreed Bridgit should stay focused on its original goal. Ms. Hasegawa
and Ms. Brodie took that advice.
As more business customers signed on, it became clear that they made the right decision. Since then, the company's growth has been rapid.
Earlier this year, Bridgit launched Closeout ,which is designed so that even the least tech-savvy（了解） can use it easily. Today, the app is being used on sites across Canada and the United States and even by top general contractors.
In October, Bridgit was named to the Canadian Innovation Exchange's top 20 list of Canada's most innovative (创新的) companies working in digital media and information and communication technology .
But Ms. Hasegawa and Ms. Brodie are not resting on their glories. They have also been collecting feedback on Closeout from customers, and they'll launch a new version in the spring. It will target not only general contractors but developers and building owners, too.
9. What does the underlined word ＂defects＂ in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Style. B. Process. C. Drawback. D. Material.
10. What did the two graduates decide to do when the pilot version was well received?
A. Turn to the ordinary consumer market. B. Look for wider applications of their app.
C. Turn it into a widely-used tool for consumers. D. Continue centering on the development in construction industry.
11. Who could be their potential customers?
A. Smartphone users. B. Architects. C. Computer programmers. D. Photographers.
12. Which of the following might be the best title?
A. Graduates' smartphone application takes off
B. Graduates' smartphone application has a bright future
C. Graduates' smartphone application meets with challenges
D. Graduates' smartphone application plays an important role in our life
D
Blind imitation（模仿） is self-destruction. To those who do not recognize their unique worth, imitation appears attractive: to those who know their strength, imitation is unacceptable.
In the early stages of skill or character development, imitation is helpful. When I first learned to cook, I used recipes and turned out some tasty dishes. But soon I grew bored. Why follow someone else’s way of cooking when I could create my own? Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a child’s bicycle; they help you get going, but once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them.
In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously(下意识地) hold poor role models. If, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did. If you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choices of others.
In the field of entertainment, our culture glorifies celebrities. Those stars look great on screen. But when they step off screen, their personal lives may be disastrous. If you are going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors.
Blessed is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. Think of the movies, books, teachers, and friends that have affected you most deeply. They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration, not desperation. The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them. Creative people have an endless resource of ideas. The problem a creator faces is not running out of material; it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination.
Study your role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not server. Then you can say, “I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors’ tragedies and stories, and know that they are cheering me on.”
13. To avoid the bad result of imitation, we should ________.
A. forget daily fear and pain B. ask others for decisions
C. choose the right example D. stay away from stars
14. According to the author, the world moves on because of those who are ________.
A. desperate to insurance others with their knowledge B. willing to accept others’ ideas
C. eager to discover what their ancestors did D. ready to turn their original ideas into reality
15. What is the author's purpose in writing this passage?
A. To highlight the importance of creatively. B. To criticize the characters of role models.
C. To compare imagination with creation. D. To explain the meaning of success.

In some cultures friendship means a strong life-long 34 between two people. In these cultures friendships develop slowly, since they are built to 35 . But American society is one of rapid change.

My childhood and adolescence were a joyous outpouring of energy, an endless pursuit for expression, skill, and experience. 41 was only a background to the great delight of lessons in music, dance, and dramatics.
Then one night at a high school dance, a remark, not intended for my 42 , injured my youthful happiness: “That girl, what a pity she is blind.” Blind! A(n) 43 word that implied everything dark, blank and helpless. 44 I turned and called out, “Please don’t feel sorry for me, I’m having lots of fun.” 45 the fun was not to last.
In college years, I began to struggle with the problem of earning a living. Part-time teaching of piano and occasional giving concerts proved only 46 sources of economic support. In terms of time and effort involved, the financial return was 47 . Self-doubt and dark moods sparked within me. 48 to my misery was the repeated experience of knowing my sisters and friends dating excitedly. How 49 I was to my piano, 50 I could dissolve（分散） my frustration, accompanied by Chopin, Brahms, and Beethoven.
Then one day, I met a girl, an army nurse, whose faith was to change my life. As our acquaintance 51 into friendship, she sensed my 52 . She said, “Stop knocking on closed doors. I know your opportunity will come. You’re trying too hard. Why don’t you relax? And have you ever tried 53 ?” The idea was strange to me. I had always believed that if you wanted 54 , you had to go and get it for yourself. Yet, my sincerity and hard work had yielded poor returns, so I was 55 to try anything else. Self-consciously, I performed the daily practice of prayer. I said, “God, show me the 56 for which You sent me to this world.
In the years to follow, the answers began to arrive, satisfying 57 my most optimistic expectation. One of the answers was Enchanted Hills, where my 58 friend and I had the privilege of seeing blind children come alive in God’s out-of-doors. 59 are the sources of pleasure and comfort I have found in friendship, and most important of all, I 60 closer to God and, through Him, to immortality (永生).
