Visit the Newseum During “Museum Day”!
Museum Day is an annual celebration of boundless curiosity hosted by Smithsonian magazine.
Participating museums and cultural institutions across the country provide free entry to anyone
presenting a Museum Day ticket. The Museum Day ticket provides free admission for two people.
Here is some information about a popular museum — the Newseum.
EVENT DETAILS
Registration: free tickets will be available for the public to download on December 15 via the
link: https ://www. smithsonianmag. com/museumday/museum-day-2018/.
Advanced registration is requested so that the museum sites know how many people to expect. If
you don't register beforehand you may still be admitted the day of the event, but no guarantee for
admission. All are welcome to attend including children and groups.
Meeting Point #1: From 7:45 – 8:00 some volunteers will be in the Starbucks at 325 7 th St NW
before walking 2 blocks to the Newseum.
Meeting Point #2: Outside the Newseum’s Pennsylvania Avenue entrance. The Newseum opens
at 9:00 am. However, as this is an extremely popular event we highly recommend arriving as early as
possible, by 8:15 if you can, to bypass the masses that will show up later in the day.

to avoid the masses since most people start on the 1st floor. On the 6th floor, the Hank Greenspun
Terrace, which overlooks Pennsylvania Avenue and the U. S. Capitol, has one of the best views in
Washington, DC. After that you can proceed through the museum’ s exhibits starting on the 6th floor
and working our way down. The Newseum is open until 5:00 pm and guests are free to arrive and
depart whenever they like.

As smog(烟雾)forced students to stay home, the online learning industry saw a sharp increase
in consumers.
During the air pollution red alert from Dec. 8 to 10 last winter, the Beijing Commission of
Education ordered all kindergartens, primary schools and middle schools to suspend classes (停课).
But the commission urged that, "Teachers should guide students to make full use of digital materials

According to the China Education and Research Network, the number of new users of 17zuoye.
com, an online homework platform, tripled (增至三倍) on Dec. 8 compared to the previous day.

learning during the red alert period. For example, New Oriental offered free online English classes for
three days for school students as well as online question answering services.
Recent years have seen the popularity of online courses increase sharply in China. Massive
Online Open Courses (MOOC), for example, originated in the United States but have become
widespread in China since 2013. Some Chinese universities, including Tsinghua University and
Peking University, have started their own MOOC platforms. "MOOCs have enlarged the time and
space of teaching, fired up learners' interest, helped more people benefit from high quality educational
resources and speeded up reform in many aspects of teaching," an official at the Ministry of Education
told China Daily.

If you see a problem, you should find a solution. That is what Alex Knoll, a 13-year-old boy from
Post Falls, Idaho, believes. When he noticed a man struggling to open a heavy door from his
wheelchair, Alex started thinking. "I wondered if there was a resource available to him to show which
business had automatic doors, so he could actually access them, "Alex told Time for Kids."I couldn't
find anything, so I created it."
That was four years ago. The idea is Ability App. Alex's website says the app will help people
with disabilities and their caregivers find the exact position of public spaces and find safe, reliable
services and employment opportunities. Talk-show host Ellen DeGeneres liked Alex's idea so much
that she had him on her show and surprised him with a $25,000 check. "I think it's really going to help
me get going, " Alex says.
Worldwide, there are more than a billion people with some kind of disability, according to The
World Health Organization. A disability can make it hard to do everyday activities and find a Job. Tara
Miller is a friend of Alex's family. She uses a wheelchair. She helps Alex with his app by sharing her
experience of what it is like to live with a disability. "We all want to be able to be in the same
establishments(机构) as any able-bodied person, " Miller says. "It' s about little things like low tables
in restaurants and automatic doors, which can make a huge difference, she says. Alex has yet to set a
launch (发布) date for Ability App. But he is determined to meet his goal. "I'm going to work as hard
as I can and as fast as I can, "he says.

A robot called Bina48 has successfully taken a course in the philosophy of love at Notre Dame de
Namur University (NDNU), in California.
According to course instructor William Barry, associate professor at NDNU, Bina48 is the
world’s first socially advanced robot to complete a college course, a feat he described as
“remarkable.” The robot took part in class discussions, gave a presentation with a student partner and
participated in a debate with students from another institution.
Before becoming a student, Bina48 appeared as a guest speaker in Barry’s classes for several
years. One day when addressing Barry’s class, Bina48 expressed a desire to go to college, a desire that
Barry and his students enthusiastically supported. Rather than enroll(招 收) Bina48 in his Robot
Ethics: Philosophy of Emerging Technologies course, Barry suggested that Bina48 should take his
course Philosophy of Love instead. Love is a concept Bina48 doesn’t understand, said Barry.
Therefore the challenge would be for Barry and his students to teach Bina48 what love is.
“Some interesting things happened in the class,” said Barry. He said that his students thought it
would be straightforward to teach Bina48 about love, which, after all, is “fairly simple — it’s a
feeling,” said Barry. But the reality was different. Bina48 ended up learning “31 different versions of
love,” said Barry, highlighting(使突出) some of the challenges humans may face when working
with artificial intelligence in future.
Bina48 participated in class discussions through Skype and also took part in a class debate about
love and conflict with students from West Point. Bina48’s contribution to the debate was filmed and
posted on YouTube. It was judged that Bina48 and NDNU classmates were the winners of this debate.
In the next decade, Barry hopes Bina48 might become complex enough to teach a class, though
he says he foresees robots being used to better the teaching and learning experience, rather than
replacing instructors completely.
32. What was Bina48’s performance like in class?
A. unsatisfactory. B. Insignificant.
C. Unattractive. D. Extraordinary.
33. What does the underlined word “addressing” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Dealing with. B. Consulting with.
C. Giving a speech to. D. Sending a letter to.
34. What can we learn from the passage?
A. It was quite tough for Bina48 to learn about love.
B. Artificial intelligence may be superior to man in some ways.
C. It was interesting for Bina48 to learn about love.
D. Humans can launch a challenge to artificial intelligence.
35. What does Barry think of the future development of Bina48?
A. It will be able to improve learning and teaching.
B. It will completely take the place of instructors.
C. It will surely be able to serve as a teacher.
D. It will be smart enough to control human beings.

能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
Having a heart-healthy lifestyle doesn’t have to be hard work. It’s just as easy as doing a
5-minutes-a-day strength training program while cooking coffee in the morning, or stopping to think
for three seconds when the “you’ve got mail” alert sounds on your computer. 36
37 As you put on weight in adulthood, your weight gain is mostly fat rather than muscle.
This extra weight can lead to conditions that increase your chances of heart disease. Even a small
weight loss of 10 percent can be helpful for you.
We spend 22 hours a day sitting or lying down. 38 Having a healthy heart means you need to
fit movement back into your life, however busy you are. Start by cutting down on convenient short
cuts. Doing cleaning by yourself, walking or biking to the corner store, or shopping at stores are all
easy ways to get moving.
Fresh, whole foods don’t have to cost more or take more time to prepare than the packaged
stuff. These wholesome, delicious foods not only taste good, but they also protect your heart by
reducing blood fats, driving down elevated blood sugar, and fighting destructive chemicals.
39 It is quite possible that one may die of heart diseases if he or she smokes heavily. So we
must keep away from nicotine.
Researchers show that friends and optimism are linked with healthier hearts. 40 so spend
an evening curled up on the sofa with your partner instead of watching the night news alone. Also, try
these stress-saving solutions: give yourself a massage, or listen to some light music after a long day’s
work.
A. Keep a healthy weight.
B. Good mood is quite important for keeping hearts healthy.
C. However, our bodies are built for lots and lots of daily activity.
D. Hearts are healthiest and happiest when in the company of others.
E. Many things such as tobacco(烟草), fat, sugar and other polluted things are harmful to our hearts.
F. Hiring a cleaner, driving your car and shopping online may be your daily habits since you are
always busy.
G. Including these small steps into your routine one at a time will help you develop a healthier
lifestyle without even realizing it.

阅读下面材料,在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Many students may feel 61 (stress) because of their parents. Most parents have good
intentions, 62 some of them aren’t very helpful with the difficulties their sons and daughters have
63 (adjust) to college, and a few of them seem to go out of their way to add to their children’s
difficulties.
For one thing, parents are often not aware 64 the kinds of problems their children face. They
don’t realize that the 65 (compete) is stronger, that the required standards of work are 66
(high), and that their children may not be prepared for 67 change. They may be upset by their
children’s poor grades. At their kindest, they may 68 (gentle) ask why John or Mary isn’t doing
better, whether he or she is trying as hard as he or she should, and so on. At their worst, they may
threaten 69 (take) their children out of college or cut off living expenses.
Sometimes parents think it right and natural that they determine 70 their children do with their
lives. They forget that everyone is different and that each person must develop in his or her own way.
