AFrances Stevens Reese Woodland Trail Guide
The Woodland Trail was opened to the public on October 21,1997.Boscobel’s Board of Directors
adopted a formal decision of naming the Woodland Trail in honour of former Boscobel board
member,Frances Stevens Reese (1917-2003),one year after his death.
The trail(小径) is approximately 10 miles in length,leading down to Constitution Forest.When the
West Point Glass Factory was operating during the Civil War,trees for miles around were cleared to
provide firewood.Walking out of the forest,you will find a large mass of native hard rock about three
billion years old.
Throughout this country path,you will find picture boards identifying birds and plants to this
region.You will also find signs with historic and environmental information written by area specialists.
When you take a walk through this “undiscovered” forest land,please be a considerate guest.
●Before walking the trail,please purchase a pass in the Carriage House.Plan ahead,so you will be back
by closing time.
●Follow the trail markers and remain on the trail.Besides protecting the fragile forest ecosystem,you
will reduce the risk of poison plants and snakes.
●Leave rocks,plants,animals and artworks where you see them so that the person behind you can have
the same experience.
●Carry out whatever you carry in because there are no rubbish containers on the trail.If you happen to
see a piece of litter,be a good guest and pick it up.

Kevin,diagnosed with Dyslexia(读写困难症),rarely spoke a word in class,and if he did,it would be
a“Yes” “No” or “Maybe” in response to questions.He always scored badly in tests and saw no hope for the
future.That was until he met Sarah,an advisor at a youth center Kidpreneur.
In 2012,Kevin attended a course called Ready Set Go in that center.The course was for disadvantaged
kids in Kingswood—a low-income area in Sydney’s western suburbs—and its goal was to teach the kids
how to create businesses and offer value to the neighborhood.
At the end of the course,Sarah took kids to the local area.She asked volunteers to share their business
experiences—Kevin immediately put up his hand.His challenge was to trade his hot-dog selling service for
free bread at a bakery.Although scared,Kevin was able to share his entrepreneur(创业) story with the shop
owner and asked if he could exchange his service for some bread.Unexpectedly,the shop owner told Kevin
how moved he was by his story and handed him some bread for free.By the end of the afternoon,his belief
in himself and what was possible was at an all-time high.
The following week,Kevin sold 70 hot-dogs in two hours and made over $ 200.Soon after,he
delivered public speeches in 20 schools,and was selected as part of his school’s leadership team.Now he
heads a business group working on how to increase potential customer base.
All of this would not have been possible if Kevin had not found his passion and perseverance to
improve himself,and those around him.The guidance and trust of his advisor also helped kindle his
enthusiasm to go after his goals and dreams in life.24.What were the kids expected to achieve in the Ready Set Go course?
A.To improve their test scores.
B.To create a hot-dog business.
C.To teach in low-income areas.

CDolphins,African gray parrots and some other animals understand the idea of “zero”,but researchers
were surprised to find that honeybees also understand this abstract concept,considering the insects’ tiny
brains,according to a new study.Honeybees have fewer than one million neurons (神经元),compared with
the 86 billion neurons in humans—and yet,they grasp a concept that humans,by some measures,don’t
start to understand before preschool.
The researchers set up two cards,each of which had a set of symbols on them,like triangles or
circles.Then,they trained a group of the bees to fly to the card with the lower number of symbols.The bees
quickly learned what the humans wanted them to do to get their delicious,sweet rewards.The trained bees
were then shown a card that was empty and one that had symbols on it.There is no need for the bees to be
trained to fly more often to the empty card—thus showing that they understood that “zero” was a number
less than the others.
Although they flew more often to an empty card than to one that had one symbol on it,it became
easier for them to distinguish when the symbols on the card increased in number.For example,they more
often flew to the zero when the other card had four symbols than when it had one.
Perhaps these findings will explain the brain mechanism (机制) behind what allows us to understand
the concept of “nothing”,Adrian Dyer,a researcher said.This understanding,in turn,could help in the
development of artificial intelligence (AI) that also understands this concept.“If bees can understand
‘zero’ with a brain of less than a million neurons,it suggests that there are simple,efficient ways to teach
AI new tricks,” Dyer said in the statement.
28.What is a surprising finding for the researchers?
A.Many animals also understand the meaning of “zero”.
B.The number of neurons of honeybees is much smaller.
C.Honeybees can understand “zero” with their tiny brains.
D.Humans fail to recognize abstract ideas before preschool.
29.What can the bees do without further training?
A.Fly directly to the card with more symbols on it.
B.Fly less often to the card with fewer symbols on it.
C.Fly quite slowly to the card without anything on it.D.Fly more often to the card without any symbol on it.
30.What does Adrian Dyer say about these findings?
A.They offer inspiration to the development of technology.
B.They enable people to understand more abstract concepts.
C.They suggest ways to teach humans some complex tricks.
D.They allow people to set a new type of brain mechanism.
31.What is the main idea of the text?
A.Honeybees know about the concept of “zero”.
B.Honeybees can understand much as humans do.
C.Honeybees will help to improve environment in the future.
D.Honeybees can be trained to comprehend “zero”.
D
Over the past decade or so,the technology industry has transformed many things we used to buy as
physical products into digital services.Could cars be the next part of everyday life to be transformed from a
physical product into an on-demand service?
One study in the US,for example,forecasts that private car ownership will fall by as much 80% by
2039 and that using electric ride-shares will be 4 to 10 times cheaper than buying a new car by 2021.The
researchers foresee a world where shared,self-driving electric cars owned by cities or ride-sharing
companies offer a safe,efficient and flexible personal transportation system.
At the very beginning of this revolution,ride-calling services like Uber and Taxify are already
potentially cheaper for some people than owning a car.Car sharing services like Zipcar—which enables
you to subscribe by the month and then hire a car by the hour have also started to pop up around the
world.What’s more,autonomous vehicles should be safer since their software will not make
mistakes,drive carelessly or get behind the wheel after too many beers.As great as that all sounds,shared,driverless vehicles are most likely to go further in the future than
the more optimistic forecasts suggest.While the technology is advancing fast,it may take longer to change
human behavior.For people in the middle classes,a car is more than a way to get from point A to point B.It
is also a status symbol,a fashion statement and a way of personal freedom.
This is why car ownership remains stubbornly high even in European and Asian cities with
cheap,reliable public transport and bans on,or crowding charges for,private cars in their centres.The
transition(过渡) will be even slower in a country like South Africa.The taxi industry,unions and
government will resist the job losses;autonomous vehicles are probably also not ready to navigate the
unpredictable drivers of Jozi’s main streets.
32.What can we infer about car sharing service from Para.2?
A.It will cost more to use.
B.It will be well received.
C.It will replace private cars quickly.
D.It will be no better than owing a car.
33.Why are autonomous vehicles considered safer?
A.They are updated constantly.
B.They are driven without wheels.
C.They are monitored in real time.
D.They are digitally controlled.
34.What should be considered before autonomous cars are promoted in South Africa?
A.Employment.
B.Service.
C.Charge.
D.Ownership.
35.What’s the writer’s attitude to car sharing service?A.Objective.
B.Unconcerned.
C.Reserved.
D.Ambiguous.

About one hundred years ago many educated people learned and spoke French when they met people
from other countries.Today most people speak English when they meet foreigners. 36 There are more
people who speak English as a second language than people who speak English as a first language.Why is
this?
37 One of the reasons is that English has become the language of business.Another important
one is that popular American culture (like movies,music,and McDonald’s) has quickly spread throughout
the world. 38
Is it good that English has spread to all parts of the world so quickly? 39 It’s important to have a
language that the people of the earth have in common.Our world has become very global and we need to
communicate with one another.On the other hand,English is a fairly complicated language to learn and it
brings its culture with it.Do we really need that?
Scientists have already tried to create an artificial language that isn’t too difficult and doesn’t
include any one group’s culture.It is called Esperanto. 40 Maybe the popularity of English won’t
last that long either.Who knows?There are more and more people in the world who speak Chinese than any
other language.Maybe someday the Chinese language will be the new international language.
A.People like English.
B.But it hasn’t become popular.
C.It has brought its language with it.
D.There is no doubt about the question.
E.This is why English was widely spoken.F.It has become the new international language.
G.There are many reasons why English has become so popular.

I went home 58 about our communication,and still worried about his 59 while he would be

make him more visible to 60 so I ordered him some.
