21、How fit are your teeth? Are you lazy about brushing them? Never fear: An inventor is on the case. An electric toothbrush senses how long and how well you brush, and it lets you track your performance on your phone.
The Kolibree toothbrush was exhibited at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week. It senses how it is moved and can send the information to an Android phone or iPhone via a Bluetooth wireless connection.
The toothbrush will be able to teach you to brush right (don’t forget the insides of the teeth!) and make sure you’re brushing long enough. “It’s kind of like having a dentist actually watch your brushing on a day-to-day basis,” says Thomas Serval, the French inventor.
The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other applications on your phone, so developers could, for instance, create a game controlled by your toothbrush. You could score points for beating monsters among your teeth. “We try to make it smart but also fun,” Several says.
Serval says he was inspired by his experience as a father. He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth. They said “yes,” but Serval would find their toothbrush heads dry. He decided he needed a brush that really told him how well his children brushed.
The company says the Kolibree will go on sale this summer, for $99 to $199, developing on features. The U.S. is the first target market.
Serval says that one day, it’ll be possible to replace the brush on the handle with a brushing unit that also has a camera. The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush.

22、 It has become a habit for many of us. When you're tired of online shopping, you head to the bathroom to do your best makeup for the perfect selfie(自拍)for Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat or all of the above. When you're ready, you hold up your phone and, in an instant, snap(拍照)。
But have you ever wondered what's behind your burning desire to self-document?Most people would say that this is a way to express themselves and perhaps make them become more confident of themselves. But the moment you upload that picture, it's no longer yours to judge. Instead, you pass on that power to the online world.
While you may think that your growing collection of selfies attracts people, quite the opposite may be true. A recent study was conducted on a total of 238 people in Austria, Germany and Switzerland. 77%of the people surveyed admitted to regularly taking selfies. Interestingly, 82% of people said that they would rather see fewer selfies on social media. In other words, we like taking selfies but seriously dislike looking at other people's selfies online.
This research finds that there is a big difference between how we see our own selfies and how we judge other people's pictures. It suggests that we are comfortable with the selfies we post since we believe they are obviously not serious or vain, but we think everyone else is an egoist(自我主义者)for doing the very same thing. After all, we are able to separate our own selfies from the sea of them online and naturally think that ours are the only authentic ones.
So, the next time you reach for your phone and take a selfie picture, consider this: The people around you may not need another carefully planned snap of your face. Instead, you might be better off, giving it a break and calling off the selfie photo today. While you're at it, make sure you never post these pictures on social media either.
【1】What is most people's idea on taking their own selfies according to the text?
A.It's a good way to keep others informed of their life.
B.It costs less money than shopping online for makeup.
C.It's a way of self-expression and building confidence.
D.It can help them keep a record of their daily routines.
【2】How do other people feel about our online selfies that we consider attractive?
A.They actually take great interest in them.
B.They envy our life after appreciating them.
C.They are likely unwilling to see them online.
D.They hardly make annoying reviews on them.
【3】Why do we regard others as egoists for taking selfies?
A.They are not serious but vain in nature.
B.We don't think their selfies are authentic.
C.We are too proud to acknowledge others.
D.They hate getting their selfies polished.
【4】What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A.Approaches to resisting taking selfies.
B.Concerns over posting selfies online.
C.Doubts about contradictory thoughts.
D.Suggestions on dealing with selfies.
23、Part of buying a home is making it your own. That can mean a huge number of things, from the simple act of repainting to something more adventurous, like adopting a brand-new lifestyle.
For the Wright family —Yvonna, Brett and their two daughters, Marley and Lola — creating a home of their own meant stepping outside their New York City comfort zone. It was a major shift, but they found a whole new level of contentment not too far from where they started. Now, the Wrights are raising chickens, keeping bees and planning a future as a farmhouse family in the Hudson Valley, just north of Manhattan.
As longtime residents of Harlem, Brett and Yvonna Wright didn’t always consider farm life their destiny(命运). But after finding success in the worlds of entertainment and publishing, they felt the need to build something their whole family could own for years to come. The brownstones of Harlem were difficult to leave behind, but the promise of open space, fresh air and boundless nature was too charming (迷人的) to resist.
The Wrights’ journey to homeownership wasn’t without obstacles. Their daughters were understandably a bit skeptical about moving. It can be difficult to have your life uprooted at any age, and for city kids moving to the country, the culture shock includes adapting to a whole new lifestyle.
Since buying their home, farm life has suited the Wrights even better than they had hoped. The charms of county life won over their daughters more quickly than anyone could have expected. Now, they are helping Mom and Dad with their business, Lomar Farms. It might seem like a total reinvention, but this family is well equipped to create a life as sweet as honey.
【1】What can we say about the farmhouse of the Wright family?
A.It is located in Harlem.
B.It was owned by a relative.
C.It used to be a publishing house.
D.It is not too far from their old home.
【2】What is paragraph 3 centered on?
A.How the family lived.
B.Why the family moved.
C.What the family are doing.
D.Where the family come from.
【3】Which of the following can replace the underlined word “uprooted”?
A.Improved.
B.Settled.
C.Changed.
D.Insured.
【4】What do the Wrights think of their present life?
A.It is a satisfaction to them all.
B.It is kind of adventurous.
C.It is out of their comfort zone.
D.It is a shock to their neighbors.
24、 I once was a follower of cancel culture, enough for it still influences the media I consume today. I don’t listen to my former favorite bands like Pinegrove and Summer Salt anymore and I refuse to watch anything with Louis C.K, and I always look up which Franco brother was accused every time I go to watch something with one of them in it.
These were easy people to “cancel”, because I didn’t have much attachment to them and I could find replacements. But what happens when someone close with you has done something “cancel-worthy”? Something that you would cancel anyone else for, if you had more distance between you?
This dilemma presents two choices.
In the first choice, you could continue your relationship with the “cancelled” person, and live with the guilt. You know they did something that you wouldn’t typically forgive, but you’ve decided to give them a “get out of jail free” card. You continue to be friends with this person, but always feel uneasy because you know somewhere inside that your friend did something bad.
Or there’s option number two: You could completely cut off the person who you once called a friend. You abandon a relationship that you had worked so hard to develop, and you decide to ignore that person. Eventually, you become complete strangers with someone you were once so close with.
No matter what choice you make, you will face significant consequences. This isn’t a black or white issue. This is just one example of the challenges of life that doesn’t have a clear answer. The truth is, this is a lose-lose situation and you’re the loser. You can continue to trust someone who did something bad and live with the guilt. Or, you can stop speaking to them, but still deal with the fact that you once trusted someone who did a very bad thing, and that you had let them into your life. Either way, you end up losing something you didn’t want to.
【1】What does the underlined word “them” refer to?
A.Franco brothers. B.Louis C.K and Franco.
C.Franco’s movies. D.Pinegrove and Summer Salt.
【2】Why does the author stop listening to his favorite bands?
A.He has found better replacements. B.He is no longer attached to them.
C.They did something he can’t forgive. D.They don’t release good works anymore.
【3】How would you feel when you keep your relationship with a “cancelled” person?
A.Relaxed. B.Guilty.
C.Awkward. D.Refreshed.
【4】What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 4?
A.You don’t care what they did at all.
B.You continue your relationship with them.
C.You hope they could be set free from the prison.
D.You don’t think they should receive a punishment.
