21、 While car sharing is a concept that’s catching on, old-fashioned carpooling where a group of people take turns driving each other to work has always faced a resistance (抗拒）. In a study on traffic problems by ABC News, 84% of those who drive to work say that they still do it alone. More than half of those lone riders insist that carpooling is just too inconvenient, and 18% say they simply don’t know anyone to share a ride with.
Now technology makes carpooling easier and more fun. NuRide, a company provided an online carpooling service last year, offers daily travelers in the Washington area not just a web-based list of would-be carpoolers but also a way to arrange a trip online. Here，s how it works: rider seekers enter the positions where their trip will begin and end, the time they want to leave and if they’re willing to drive or just ride in someone else’s car. The website’s search engine then looks for matches and makes lists of the names of traveling companions, along with the car model and the exact time and place to meet for each trip. People who want to share the ride can show their interest in joining in online and then meet their car mates when it’s time to go.
NuRide users aren’t riding with total strangers. They are required to provide the name of their employer and a work e-mail address，both of which need to be checked before being listed on the website.
To attract users, NuRide offers a frequent rider prize: anyone who shares a ride gets a $1 credit. So far, 2, 300 people have signed up. NuRide GEO Rick Steele said that more than 50, 000 rides have been arranged on the website, resulting in 1.4 million fewer miles driven and 650 fewer tons of automobile emissions (排放).
【1】What has the study found about drivers' opinions on carpooling?
A.Many think it is inconvenient.
B.84%of them accept the idea.
C.Some consider it dangerous.
D.18%of them drive to work alone.
【2】What can NuRide do for its users?
A.Decide car models for them.
B.Help them arrange a shared cart trip.
C.Give them a list of car owners.
D.Find out their car mates' true names.
【3】What information is a NuRide user asked to provide?
A.His age. B.His home address.
C.His hobbies. D.His employer's name.
【4】It can be inferred that NuRide has helped in _________.
A.improving air quality
B.increasing job opportunities
C.promoting driving safety
D.making people know each other
22、 There are certain areas on Mars where we don’t dare tread. NASA forbids spacecraft from visiting spots that possibly host liquid water, and so where life might be able to thrive, for fear of contaminating (感染) Mars with Earth microbes. But an analysis of the salty liquids on Mars suggests we needn’t worry, because life as we know it should be unable to exist anywhere on the planet’s surface.
Edgard Rivera-Valentin at the Lunar and Planetary Institutein Texas and his colleagues used readings of the temperature and relative humidity across Mars to map the presence of salty water. Any water on the surface is likely to be salty, simply because the surface is. This boosts the chances of water being liquid because salt lowers its freezing point.
It is like when you throw salt on an icy sidewalk, says Danielle Nuding at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California. “It’s the same chemistry happening.”
Unfortunately, the saltier the water, the less likely anything can survive in it. The team found that even though there could be briny (盐分多的) water on the surface of Mars up to 18 per cent of the year, depending on the season, no microbe we have ever seen on Earth would be able to reproduce there.
Life as we know it is not going to find these brines and survive because it’s either going to be way too cold or way too salty,” says Rivera-Valentin, who presented the results at the Lunar and Planetary Science Conference in Texas.
That doesn’t mean we can’t contaminate Mars: brines with different types of salts mixed together might be friendlier to life and temperatures just below the surface are much less extreme. Nevertheless, as long as we don’t dig down, it might be highly unlikely or even impossible for rovers (飞行器) such as Curiosity to contaminate Mars.
“The level of sterilization (杀菌) that we’ve done with Curiosity should be good enough to ignore the ban on visiting what we’ve been calling special regions until now, says Jennifer Hanley at Lowell Observatory in Arizona. I think that we’re OK to go. Visiting these regions would be particularly helpful because, while they are in theory the most vulnerable areas on Mars, they are also the most interesting.
For example, arguments have been raging for over a decade about whether dark streaks on Martian slopes called recurring slope lineae are flowing water or just dust. A quick visit by Curiosity, which is near an area where the flows often form, could solve it once and for all.
Even if areas with water are inhospitable to Earth life, they could still be home to native Martian life forms.
“If you had life that originated on Mars when it was more habitable, it could be that as Mars changed, life could have gradually adapted to the new, more extreme conditions,” says Rivera-Valentin.
【1】NASA forbids spacecraft from visiting the special regions on Mars because .
A.life is unable to thrive there, thus there’s no point of visiting them
B.Martian life probably exists there and might threaten human beings
C.they worry Earth microbes might survive there, thus contaminating Mars
D.human beings know nothing about these areas and they are dangerous to us
【2】Which of the following statements is true?
A.Mars surface being salty provides evidence that Mars hosts liquid water.
B.Earth life is unlikely to contaminate Mars because the surface of the planet is either too cold or too salty.
C.The fear of contaminating Mars is unnecessary because human beings won’t contaminate Mars under any circumstances.
D.Jennifer Hanley thinks human beings should explore the special regions on Mars in order to confirm the existence of Martian life.
【3】What is the point of visiting the special regions on Mars?
A.Martian life might be found.
B.Liquid water might be found.
C.Many puzzles about Mars could soon be solved.
D.No humans have ever visited those regions before.
【4】In the passage, you can find the answers to all the questions except .
A.whether the surface of Mars is salty or not
B.whether any native Martian life forms exist
C.whether Earth life is able to survive on Mars or not
D.whether the rover Curiosity will contaminate Mars
23、Tips for a Successful Video Job Interview
As hiring becomes global and more employees work remotely, video interviews have become common. For hiring managers, they’re a way to quickly conduct first-round interviews, save on transportation costs, and get the interview process started much faster than scheduling in-person interviews.
Review the following tips to make sure you ace this type of interview.
What to Expect
During a virtual interview, the video platform will vary depending on the company, but a ResumeGo survey reports that Zoom is the most commonly used interviewing platform (72%), followed by Skype (43%) and Google Hangouts (27%).

In most cases, everything will go smoothly, but it will be less stressful if you practice beforehand.
•Do a trial run a day or two before the interview.
•Check your webcam and any headset or microphone as if you were going to do the actual interview.
•Your camera should be at eye level. A poorly placed camera can result in double chins or odd shadows.
•Regardless of location, make sure that you send any materials (resume, portfolio, etc. ) that the company needs in advance.
What to Wear
The ResumeGo survey reports that most employers prefer that job candidates wear business casual(便装), but many don’t have a preference. If you are unsure of what level of formality is expected, it is always better to be overdressed than underdressed.
During the Video Interview
Make sure the table and your surroundings are clean and neat. You don’t want to distract (干扰)the interviewer. If you’re interviewing in your home, make sure that you are in a quiet space with no barking dogs, children, music, or other sounds. As well, turn off your phone and any alerts on your computer to avoid getting thrown off by emails or instant messages during the interview.
Make eye contact, and remember, that means looking at the camera(and not the picture-in-picture image of yourself).
【1】What advantage do video job interviews have over in-person ones?
A．Personalized and time-saving.
B．Efficient and money-saving.
C．No face-to-face communication.
D．Simplified interview procedure.
【2】Which of the following subtitles best fits the box in the text?
A．Trial Video Process
B．Check Your Technology
C．Advance Planning
D．Have Materials Ready
【3】Which of the following statements is true?
A．Dress casually if you are unsure of what to wear.
B．The ideal background is tidy, quiet and distraction-free.
C．Google Hangouts ranks lowest among available video platforms.
D．Look at yourself on the screen while responding to interviewers.
24、 An experimental device that turns thoughts into text has allowed a man who was left paralyzed by an accident to construct sentences swiftly on a computer screen. The man was able to type with 95% accuracy just by imagining he was handwriting letters on a sheet of paper, a team reported Wednesday in the journal Nature.
“What we found, surprisingly, is that he can type at about 90 characters per minute," says Krishna Shenoy of Stanford University. The device would be most useful to someone who could neither move nor speak, says Dr. Jaimie Henderson, a professor at Stanford and co-director, with Shenoy, of the Stanford NPTL.
“We can also envision it being used by someone who can't move but wants to use email,” Henderson says, “or, say, a computer programmer who wants to go back to work.”
The idea of decoding the brain activity involved in handwriting is 'just impressive, says John Ngai, who directs the National Institutes of Health's BRAIN Initiative, which helped fund the research. "But it was only on one subject in a laboratory setting," Ngai says. "So at the moment it's a great example of proof of principle."
The man who agreed to test the device is unable to move his arms and legs as the result of an accident. A few years ago, the man agreed to take part in a study of an experimental system called BrainGate2. It allows people who are paralyzed to control computers and other devices using only their thoughts.
The system relies on devices surgically implanted near the part of the brain that controls movement. In previous studies, participants had learned to control a computer cursor or robotic arm by imagining they were moving their hands.
This time, Henderson, Shenoy and a team of scientists had the man imagine he was writing individual letters by hand while a computer monitored the electrical activity in his brain. Eventually, the computer learned to decode the distinct pattern of activity associated with every letter of the alphabet as well as several symbols. Once that process is complete, Shenoy says, “We can determine if the letter you wrote is an A or a B or a C and then show on the screen and you're able to spell out words and sentences and so forth one letter at a
In previous experiments, participants had been able to use their thoughts to “point and click” at letters on a screen. But that approach was much slower than imagined handwriting. Also, because the new system relies on familiar thoughts, the participant was able to use it almost immediately.
【1】By imagining handwriting, a person can type about ________ correct characters per minute.
A．43.
B．45.
C．86.
D．90.
【2】Which can replace the underlined word “envision“ in the third paragraph?
A．Guide.
B．Imagine.
C．Suggest.
D．Promote.
【3】What is John Ngai's attitude to the handwriting approach?
A．Favorable.
B．Cautious.
C．Ambiguous.
D．Disapproving.
【4】In order to spell out words, the participants should________.
A．have the electrical activity in their brain monitored
B．first learn to take control of a computer cursor or robotic arm
C．be able to use their fake hands to “point and click” at letters on a screen
D．have devices implanted near the brain part controlling thinking
【5】Which section of a website may this text appear?
A．Entertainment.
B．Health.
C．Education.
D．Medicine.
