21、Imagine two students. One is constantly shifting in his seat, looking around the classroom, and spinning his pencil. Another is sitting very still with his hands folded, watching you attentively. Which one is paying closer attention to your words and comprehending more of the lesson?
As a teacher of ADHD (多动症) students, I've learned that all is not as it seems. Some students are better able to control their emotions and minds when their bodies are free to move. This includes students who are autistic (自闭症). Additionally, autistic students often find eye contact uncomfortable and listen best while looking away.
If such students must squeeze their behavior into what many teachers call whole body listening—a motionless body and controlled stare—it could actually disturb their concentration. Perhaps a student who seems distracted (分心) is using his ways to effectively self-control, while one who appears to be listening may be distracted by the need to keep up appearances.
But this doesn't apply to all students. For some, the typical behavior of a "good listener" really does mean that they' re paying attention. So, if you can't use movement or eye contact as a standard of paying attention, how can you tell whether a student is listening attentively?
There are ways you can use to help students to figure this out. Give students freedom to experiment with ways to listen. You could start by explaining to students that you care more about what their minds are doing than what their bodies are doing. Then let them know they are free to look around and move around, as long as they make a sincere effort to listen.
The phrase whole body listening doesn't have to mean controlling natural movement. If we consider the diversity of what various bodies do while listening, whole body listening can take on a new, wide meaning—truly using your whole body to help you listen well.
【1】Why are two students mentioned in paragraph 1?
A.To draw the attention of the readers.
B.To present an argument about listening.
C.To show what different students do in class.
D.To warn students to listen to teachers carefully.
【2】What should a teacher do to help autistic students concentrate on lessons?
A.Ask them to answer questions.
B.Control their body movements.
C.Limit their emotions and minds.
D.Avoid watching them in the eyes.
【3】What does the underlined word "this" refer to in paragraph 5?
A.Who can be a good listener.
B.What good listening looks like.
C.The effort students make to listen.
D.The freedom to move around in class.
【4】What does the author focus on in the last paragraph?
A.The new meaning of whole body listening.
B.The natural body movements when listening.
C.The teachers' view on whole body listening.
D.The ways to listen with the whole body.
22、 Most autonomous vehicles test-driving in cities navigate (导航) by using 3-D maps marking every edge of roadside with almost centimeter-level accuracy. But few places have been mapped in such detail, which has left most areas like smaller towns inaccessible to those driverless cars.
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) now have developed a new navigation system that guides autonomous vehicles without such accurate maps. This technology can help driverless cars travel almost anywhere.
The navigation system maps out a course down unfamiliar roads much as a human driver would by continually scanning its surroundings, with a laser sensor (激光感应器), to measure how close it is to the edges of the road. Meanwhile, the car also follows a tool like a smart phone map app that provides directions to its destination, as well as information about the rules of the road, such as speed limits and the positions of stoplights. Teddy Ort, a roboticist at MIT, test-drove a car equipped with this navigation system on a one-way road. It slowly traveled one kilometer without any human assistance.
This system assumes that a car has a clear path down the road, but it can be paired with other existing computing technology to discover in-road obstacles (障碍), says Ort. The researchers also plan to build a version of this system which can spot markings painted on streets, so that the car can drive on two-way roads. "Self-driving cars with this navigation system may need other sensors to work in different conditions,” Alexander Wyglinski, and electrical engineer at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. "Since laser sensors don’t work well in rain or snow, these cars might need additional imaging technologies to drive safely in bad weather. "
【1】What may be a problem for most driverless cars?
A. They fail in test-driving.
B. Their maps are out-dated.
C. They run in limited areas.
D. Their guides are unreliable.
【2】What can we infer about the MIT navigation system?
A. It includes accurate maps.
B. It removes in-road obstacles.
C. It works by detecting the road.
D. It features a smart phone app.
【3】What is the purpose of Paragraph 4?
A. To confirm the test-drive results.
B. To indicate further research areas.
C. To recognize scientists’ achievements.
D. To show the creativity of driverless cars.
【4】What is the main idea of the text?
A. Autonomous cars beat human drivers on country roads.
B. Navigating self-driving cars may work in different conditions.
C. Smart mapping technology adds to the functions of self-driving cars.
D. A new navigation system helps autonomous cars drive remote roads.
23、Creative vending(售卖) machine prints short stories to read while you wait
Recently, inventive vending machines have become popular around France. 【1】 Created by literature-loving company Short Edition, these savvy stalls(货摊) promise to help pass the time, whether you’re waiting at the airport, stuck at the train station, or even accompanying your friend on the trip to the mall.
【2】 To use these wonderful and creative inventions, simply choose your desired reading time: 1 minute, 3 minutes, or 5 minutes. Then, the machine will surprise you with a randomly-selected short story to occupy your time and make waiting around a bit more bearable— at least for a couple of minutes!

C. How do you kill a few minutes while waiting for a bus or train?
D. Since then, the popular machines have been fixed in various public places across the country.
E. Short Edition, a library of short literature, has fixed unique vending machines that print out short stories.
F. Instead of selling sweet treats or sugary drinks, however, these machines distribute short stories.
G. Pretty in design and minimal in effort, each vending machine offers an appealing way for customers to kill time.
