21、Summer is not a good season for most people because of its hot weather. You’ve probably also got memories of asking your parents for money to buy one of those big chocolate ice creams, and being refused. Well, Matt Allen, known as the Ice Cream Man, is here to give both children and adults pleasant memories of summer. For the past four years, Allen has spent his summers driving an old ice cream truck named “Bessie”, handing out free ice creams to children and grown-ups. He’s traveled over 15,000 miles, and handed out more than 125,000 free ice creams.
At first Allen wanted to earn money by selling ice creams, as most people would. But in his first season of selling, he didn’t make very much money, and he had so many ice creams left that he wasn’t sure what to do with them. So he decided to give them away.
That may seem like a strange thing, but the Ice Cream Man did it. “You go through your life thinking you can change the world or thinking you cannot,” he says. “If those are the only two options, why don’t you at least try?”
“If I’m not going to make any money by selling ice creams, why not give them away, and make people happy?” Allen says. And so, every summer since that first one, he’s traveled coast to coast across America in his old Bessie, giving away ice creams.
【1】People call Allen the Ice Cream Man because ________.
A．it was his name when he was young
B．he sells ice creams
C．he likes ice creams
D．he hands out many free ice creams
【2】Which of the following has the closest meaning with the underlined word “options” in the third paragraph ?
A．opinions
B．choices
C．decisions
D．goals
【3】According to the passage, what is Allen’s attitude towards life?
A．He thought it necessary to have a try.
B．He didn’t care about what happened.
C．He thought it important to wait and see.
D．He didn’t think life was very easy.
22、A computer programme can identify breast cancer from routine scans with greater accuracy than human experts, some researchers said. They hoped what they developed could prove a breakthrough in the fight against the global killer.
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women, with more than 2 million new diagnoses last year alone. Regular screening is vital in detecting the earliest signs of the disease in patients who show no obvious symptoms.
In Britain, women over 50 are advised to get an examination of a breast every three years, the results of which are analyzed by two independent experts. But interpreting the scans leaves room for error, and a small percentage of all mammograms(乳房X光检查) either return a false positive—misdiagnosing a healthy patient as having cancer—or false negative—missing the disease as it spreads.
Now researchers at Google Health have trained an artificial intelligence model to detect cancer in breast scans from thousands of women in Britain and the United States. The images had already been reviewed by doctors in real life but unlike in a clinical setting, the machine had no patient history to inform its diagnoses. The team found that their AI model could predict breast cancer from the scans with a similar accuracy level to expert radiographers.
Further, the AI showed a reduction in the proportion of cases where cancer was incorrectly identified—5.7 percent in the US and 1.2 percent in Britain, respectively. It also reduced the percentage of missed diagnoses by 9.4 percent among US patients and by 2.7 percent in Britain.
“The earlier you identify a breast cancer, the better it is for the patient,” Dominic King, UK lead at Google Health, told AFP. “We think about this technology in a way that supports and enables an expert, or a patient ultimately, to get the best outcome from whatever diagnostics they’ve had.”
【1】What’s the text mainly about?
A．Regular screening. is important for women who are over 50.
B．AI is more powerful than experts in diagnosing breast cancer.
C．Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women.
D．The earlier you identify a breast cancer the better the result is.
【2】What is of great importance in discovering breast cancer at an early stage?
A．Daily scanning.
B．Human experts.
C．Regular screening.
D．A computer program.
【3】What can we infer about breast cancer from the third paragraph?
A．It may be connected with age.
B．It can be cured in most cases.
C．The patients tend to be negative.
D．It is frequently misdiagnosed.
【4】What’s Dominic King’s attitude toward the new technology?
A．Skeptical.
B．Favorable.
C．Cautious.
D．Indifferent.
23、In the United States alone,over 100 million cell-phones are thrown away each year.Cell-phones are part of a growing mountain of electronic waste like computers and personal digital assistants.The electronic waste stream is increasing three times taster than traditional garbage as a whole.
Electronic devices contain valuable metals such as gold and silver.A Swiss study reported that while the weight of electronic goods represented by precious metals was relatively small in comparison to total waste,the concentration（含量）of gold and other precious metals was higher in So-called e-waste than in naturally occurring minerals.
Electronic wastes also contain many poisonous metals.Even when the machines are recycled and the harmful metals removed,the recycling process often is carried out in poor countries,in practically uncontrolled ways which allow many poisonous substances to escape into the environment.
Creating products out of raw materials creates much more waste material,up to 100 times more,than the material contained in the finished products.Consider again the cell-phone,and imagine the mines that produced those metals,the factories needed to make the box and packaging（包装）it came in.Many wastes produced in the producing process are harmful as well.
The U.S Environmental Protection Agency notes that most waste is dangerous in that"the production, distribution,and use of products-as well as management of the resulting waste-all result in greenhouse gas release." Individuals can reduce their contribution by creating less waste at the start-for instance,buying reusable products and recycling.
In many countries the concept of extended producer responsibility is being considered or has been put in place as an incentive（动机）for reducing waste.If producers are required to take back packaging they use to sell their products,would they reduce the packaging in the first place?
Governments' incentive to require producers to take responsibility for the packaging they produce is usually based on money.Why,they ask,should cities or towns be responsible for paying to deal with the bubble wrap（气泡垫）that encased your television?
From the governments' point of view,a primary goal of laws requiring extended producer responsibility is to transfer both the costs and the physical responsibility of waste management from the government and tax-payers back to the producers.
【1】By mentioning the Swiss study,the author intends to tell us that .
A. the weight of e-goods is rather small B. natural minerals contain more precious metals
C. E-waste deserves to be made good use of D. the percentage of precious metals is heavy in e-waste
【2】The responsibility of c-waste treatment should be extended .
A. from producers to governments B. from governments to producers
C. from individuals to distributors D from distributors to governments
【3】What docs the passage mainly talk about?
A. The increase in e-waste. B. The creation of e-waste.
C. The seriousness of e-waste. D. The management of e-waste.
24、Smartphones, tablets and other digital devices can be addictive. They affect sleep. They draw kids into an alternate universe, often distracting（使分心）them from more productive-and healthier-real-world activities. And they are often linked to anxiety and depression, learning disabilities and obesity（肥胖）. Yet for many teenagers, cellphones and social media are also absolutely necessary tools for planning their social lives, keeping up with schoolwork and staying in touch with out-of-town friends and relatives.
How can parents make the most of the constructive uses of screen-based technology while minimizing its harmful effects？
The key is helping kids use technology as a tool, not a toy, “where there’s some purpose other than the medication of boredom,” says Jim Taylor, a psychologist and author of the book Raising Generation Tech：Preparing Your Children for a Media-fueled World. Taylor, like many other medical and mental health professionals, advises parents to set limits and stick to them. They should restrict the amount of time their kids spend on devices, create tech-free zones-no cellphones in their bedrooms, for example-and tech-free times, such as at the dinner table, in restaurants and on family outings.
Perhaps the best thing you can do is serve as a good role model by exhibiting the same online behavior you expect of your children, says Dr. Elias Aboujaoude, a Stanford University psychiatrist. “If parents are breaking their own rules,” Aboujaoude says, “kids cannot be expected to behave differently.”
Chad Landgraf, 44, of Oklahoma, told me he was worried about how addicted his 12-year-old son and 5-year-old daughter became when they were on their devices. So, hoping to set an example, he switched from e-books to old-fashioned print. “When I had my Kindle or ipad open, they. didn’t know if I was reading or surfing the net,” Landgraf says. “But at least if I have a paper copy of a book, they know I am reading. Modeling seems like the easiest way.”
【1】What may be the result of children’s using digital devices?
A．Health improvement.
B．Free creation.
C．Sleep disorder.
D．Good conduct
【2】What does Jim Taylor suggest parents doing?
A．Killing time by using screen-based technology.
B．Forbidding kids using smartphones.
C．Setting clear boundaries for kids.
D．Restricting tech-free family time.
【3】Why did Chad pick up old-fashioned print?
A．He was afraid of becoming addicted.
B．He expected to be a role model.
C．He was tired of surfing the net.
D．He preferred paper copies of books.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?
A．Parenting in a digital world
B．Learning to be intelligent parents
C．Using smart devices wisely
D．Helping children behave themselves
