A few years ago, a doctor gave a wrong prescription to a 9-year-old boy because he had
accidentally clicked the next medicine listed in the drop-down menu. Unfortunately, the boy died.
Dr. Gidi Stein heard the story and felt forced to do something. “It was like killing someone with
a spelling error. He just clicked on the wrong button,” Stein said. “One would have thought there’d
be some kind of spell-checker to prevent these terrible things from happening. But apparently this is
not the case.”
Several things were immediately obvious to the 54-year-old Stein, who had previously studied
computer science. “If you look at this problem from a bird’s eye view, there were so many places down the line where this decision could have been stopped—from the physician to the pharmacy (药
房) even to the mother. All of them had all the relevant information to have a judgment call that this
was just the wrong drug for the wrong patient.” For Stein, it represented a systemic failure.
Stein compared this with credit cards. “If you use your credit card in the daily routine over
time, a pattern of how we use our cards comes out: the grocery store, the gas station in our local
town. If your credit card would appear tomorrow in Zimbabwe, it would be unusual. The credit card
company would call you and say, ‘Hey, was that you?’”
But nothing like that existed in the field of prescription drugs. So Stein set up a company called
MedAware. He came up with a machine learning outlier detection (异常检测值) system. In other
words, he trained the computers to realize if a doctor accidentally prescribed the wrong medicine.
The system is already used in hospitals and doctor’s offices. To date, MedAware has used their
technology to help nearly six million patients in the United States and Israel.
24. What led to the boy’s death?
A. The doctor’s carelessness. B. The drawback of the computer.
C. The doctor’s poor medical skill. D. The incomplete health care system.
25. What does Stein feel about this medical accident?
A. Angry. B. Frightened. C. Embarrassed. D. Regretful.
26. What can MedAware’s technology do?
A. Help doctor choose right medicine. B. Reminds patients to take medicine.
C. Introduce new drugs to doctors. D. Check the prescription.
27. Where is this text most likely from?
A. A diary. B. A guidebook. C. A magazine. D. A science fiction.
C
History of amusement parks takes us back to the bar-periodic fairs, like the Bartholomew Fair
which started in England. These can be considered a parent for the modern amusement park.
Opening in the Elizabethan period, the fair had developed as a center of amusement with
entertainment with fun, food, games, and many other attractions. The beer festival held in Munich,
Germany which started in 1810 and the country and state fairs in the US, also played a part in the
brief history of amusement park. Unlike the Bartholomew Fair, these annual events were usually
held during an important time when crops were ripe, which deserved to be marked.
Amusement parks are also known to have grown out of the pleasure gardens that became very
popular at the start of the Industrial Revolution. These were the zones where one could shun the dull
urban life for a short while. We can find the oldest and still-surviving amusement park in the world:
Bakken in Denmark, which opened in 1583. These parks consisted of fireworks displays, rides and
the modern railroad to accommodate the growing expectations from their customers.
Another turning point in the history of amusement parks was the world’s fairs which began in
1851. The Crystal Palace in London, England was a landmark and celebrated the industrial
achievements of the world. These were seen as symbols of economic and industrial success. In the
last decade of the 19th century, the electric trolley lines became extremely popular. Mechanical
amusements, dance hall, sports fields, and restaurants were included as regular entertainments, as the
history of amusement parks reflects.
The golden age in the brief history of amusement parks didn’t appear until people especially
Americans spent less time on work and got a steady rise in their personal income. A number of amusement parks including the Kiddie Park were set up outside major cities and in the countryside,
to make full use of this new economic opportunity. The original Kiddie Park is located in San
Antonio, Texas and is still in operation today.
28. What was the purpose of the early Munich beer festival?
A. To show local attractions. B. To celebrate harvest together.
C. To found a center of amusement. D. To create a stable agricultural market.
29. What does the underlined word “shun” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Avoid. B. Tolerate. C. Experience. D. Complain.
30. What made the amusement parks fully developed?
A. The Industrial Revolution. B. More time and money for fun.
C. Advances in technology. D. Development of the world’s fairs.
31. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Bakken was originally opened in 1583 in London.
B. The Crystal Palace is the oldest amusement park in the world.
C. The Kiddie Park located in San Antonio is still open at present.
D. The Bartholomew Fair was seen as economic and industrial success.

Nicole Eisenberg’s older son has wanted to be a star of the stage since he was a kid. He took
voice, dance and drama lessons and attended the well-known Stagedoor Manor summer camp for
half a dozen years. “I had to take him on 20 auditions (试演) for musical theater. But he did it with
me. I did not helicopter parent him. I was co-pilot.” Ms Eisenberg said.
Helicopter parenting is a term that become popular in the 1980s and grew out of fear about
children’s physical safety. It is the practice of hovering anxiously near one’s children, monitoring
their every activity. In the 1990s, it meant not just constantly monitoring children, but also always
teaching them.
Or was she a snowplow parent? Snowplow parenting is an even more obsessive (强迫性的)
form, which keeps their children’s futures obstacle-free, so they don’t have to come across failure,
frustration or lose opportunities.
It’s a parent’s job to support the children, and to use their adult wisdom to prepare for the future
when their children aren’t mature enough to do so. It’s painful for any parent to watch their child
mess up, or not achieve their goals. Now, however, the stakes ( 赌 注 ) are so much high.
“Increasingly, it appears any mistake could be very serious for their class outcome,” said Philip
Cohen, a sociologist at the University of Maryland.
“The point is to prepare the kid for the road, instead of preparing the road for the kid.” Ms
Lythcott-Haims said. “You have made a role for yourself of always being there to handle things for
your child, so it gets worse because your child is ill-equipped to manage the basic tasks of life.”
Learning to solve problems, take risks and overcome frustration are important life skills.
However, snowplowing has gone so far that many young people are in crisis, lacking these
problem-solving skills and experiencing anxiety. Many snowplow parents know it’s problematic,
too. But because of privilege or peer pressure or anxiety about their children’s futures, they do it
anyway.
32. What do helicopter parents and snowplow parents have in common?
A. They teach their children everything.B. They do everything for their children.
C. They care too much about their children.
D. They only fix their eyes on their children.
33. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined part in Paragraph 5?
A. A thousand miles begins with a single step.
B. All things are difficult before they are easy.
C. Good company on the road is the shortest cut.
D. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.
34. What is the important effect of snowplowing on children?
A. The shortage of problem-solving ability.
B. The decrease of their anxiety.
C. The satisfaction of learning.
D. The pressure from their friends.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Helicopter Parents and Their Children
B. Parents Develop Problem-solving Skills
C. Parents Prepare for Children’s Future
D. Parents Protect Children against Adulthood

Dear Peter,
You asked me about information on the Middle School Students’ Art Exhibition to
be held in your last letter and the following is a brief introduction.
The exhibition, the theme of which is “Amazing China”, will take place from next
Monday to Friday in the exhibition hall located on the third floor of the City Museum.
Some extraordinary artworks created by the middle school students will be displayed,
including Chinese paintings, photography as well as delicate craftworks. All of the
works will definitely give a clearer picture of the charm of our Chinese culture.
By the way, photos are not permitted to take during the visit. It is also bad manners
to talk loudly in the museum. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
