26、   Technology is changing every aspect of our life and tooth brushing is no exception. The Amabrush, the world’s first automatic toothbrush, promises to clean your pearly white teeth in just 10 seconds and no effort is required on your part.

You may have never thought about it before, but you lose tens of hours a year just in brushing you teeth. A team of biotech engineers want to change that with the help of technology. Their seemingly revolutionary invention, called Amabrush, looks more like a mouth guard than a toothbrush. but promises to clean all your teeth completely in only 10 seconds, using the vibration （振动） created by a small motor （马达）,rather than repeated hand movements.

The Amabrush consists of two major parts: a soft mouthpiece that goes into your mouth, and a hand Piece that contains the motor and a micro pump （微量泵）。The automatic toothbrush uses special toothpaste capsules（牙膏胶囊） that are connected to the hand piece. They cost $3. 40 and are supposed to last about a month, if you use the Amabrush twice a day. Like normal toothbrushes, the silicone mouthpiece should be changed every 3-6 months. The price for a replacement is $7.

To create the silicone mouthpiece. the makers of the Amabrush analyzed 2, 000 jaws of both men and women, to come up with a one-size-fits-all product. They say that any small differences in jaw size are removed by the soft material. so the Amabrush fits any jaw with no abnormal teeth displacements.

The device requires charging, but the good news is that the single charge is supposed to last for 28 brushing sessions, which are equal to about two weeks of two daily uses. "The Amabrush can brush your teeth in just 10 seconds, because all your teeth are cleaned at the same time, "the creators of the Amabrush say.

It seems that people have been waiting for something like this, because the Amabrush reached its crowd funding goal in just one hour. It’s amazing to see a product that has remained unchanged for hundreds of years get a major technological improvement.

【1】According to the first paragraph, the Amabrush

A.is a product of no significance

B.is a product of technology

C.requires only a little effort of its users

D.guarantees its users pearly white teeth

【2】What is the recommendation for using the Amabrush?

A.Using it no less than twice a day.

B.Having it charged at least once a week.

C.Changing its toothpaste capsules twice a month.

D.Replacing its silicone mouthpiece every 3-6 months.

【3】What does the author think of the Amabrush?"

A.It has a large promising market.

B.It is based on traditional toothbrushes.

C.Family members can share the Amabrush.

D.Every tooth can get brushed for 1. 25 seconds.

27、   One spring morning, I was hiking on southeastern Alaska’s Island when I froze. 20 paces away was a huge Alaskan Wolf — caught in a trap. It was a mother wolf. Somewhere there were hungry pups (幼崽) waiting for her.

From her appearance, I guessed that she had been trapped only a few days. That meant her pups were probably still alive. So I decided to search for her pups. Fortunately, I spotted her pups. I began imitating the high-pitched call of a mother wolf calling her young. A few moments later, four tiny pups appeared. One by one, I placed them in a bag and headed back down the slope.

When the mother wolf spotted me, she let out a high-pitched. I released the pups, and they raced to her. I could see that the trap’s steel jaws had imprisoned only two toes. They were swollen, but she wouldn’t lose the paw — if I could free her.

“OK,” I said. “Just a minute and you will be free.” I applied pressure, the trap opened, and the wolf pulled free. Reaching the far side, I looked back. The mother and her pups were sitting where I had left them, watching me. I waved. At the same time, the mother wolf sent a long howl into the air.

Four years later, I returned after serving in the Army. Standing on the edge of a hill, I gave out a wolf call. An echo came and a wolf call followed. Then I saw a dark shape moving in my direction. “Hello, old girl,” I called gently. The wolf moved closer, her tail wagging slightly. Moments later, the wolf left. But the memory she left with me will always be there, a reminder that there are things in nature that exist outside the laws and understanding of man.

【1】How did the author feel when he first came across the wolf?

D.The wolf couldn’t recognize the author four years later.

【4】What can be the best title for the text?

28、Our brain is a remarkably powerful tool. It is able to provide you with much more thinking abilities if you learn how to develop it in the most efficient way. 【1】

● Try to give your habits a fresh start from time to time.

For instance, stand on another foot when getting out of bed. You can also switch to holding a tooth brush with a hand you’ve never used for this purpose before. 【2】

All of those simple (yet amusing) tasks will help you to increase your brain’s activity.

● Learn how to get proper rest in order to work efficiently.

Deep healthy sleep increases brain’s strength margin and contributes to attention focusing. A lack of sleep or its’ derangement may affect mental activities and remarkably decrease its’ functional level. 【3】

● Do outdoor exercise

It is scientifically proven that a reasonable outdoor exercise forces your brain to produce new cells. There’s no need to become an athlete, but a bit of jogging around the building will definitely do you no harm.

● 【4】        

Walnuts are the best snack for a brain - these even share a similar shape. Five walnuts a day provide enough lecithin for improving brain activity and memory. Don’t drink too much alcohol, for it isn’t good brain food.【5】 It is a part of a brain responsible for memory and spatial orientation. And well, a drunk man simply looks pitiful and foolish.

A．Choose the best brain food.

B．Don’t drink alcohol without limitation.

C．Scientists recommend a period of 6 to 8 hours of daily sleep.

D．Here are some simple ways to increase brain activity.

E．Alcohol destroys hippocampus.

Why Cold weather Causes So many Flight Cancellation?

Each year, about 60,000 flights get canceled because of bad winter weather, which costs airlines and airports an estimated $3 billion. But it’s not the freezing cold temperatures that cause problems for planes. After all, 【1】 jets fly 10 kilometers up, where temperatures hover around -50 degrees Celsius.

In fact, planes 【2】 in cold weather, since cold air is denser and leads to better thrust. Clearly, the real problem isn’t what’s going on up there. It’s what’s happening on the ground.

When a 【3】 polar vortex (极地涡旋) struck the Midwestern US in January 2019, temperatures dropped to -40 degrees Celsius and airline canceled 3,000 flights nationwide. In these situations, when temperatures start 【4】, everything slows down. Cargo doors can freeze up, along with the nozzles that pump fuel into planes, which delays the 【5】 process.

Even the plane itself can freeze over. Just a quarter-inch - thick layer of ice on a plane can disrupt the way air flows over its wings.

Les Westbrooks: The number one reason, I would say, that the reason flights get delayed in cold weather is going to be because there’s some kind of frozen precipitation, from frost to snow to a sheet of ice, adhering to the aircraft, adhering to the wings of the aircraft 【6】.

That’s Les Westbrooks, a retired airline pilot and an associate professor of aeronautical science at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. He says that 【7】, these planes are “de-iced” - but this also delays takeoff. The crew can spray the plane with a special hot water/ glycol mixture. It can take around 40 minutes to de-ice large passenger airplanes, so planes often have to wait “their turn” for the de-icing station, which, of course, can trigger more delays.

And ice on the runway, of course, creates another set of 【8】. In 2014, a plane at JFK skidded off an icy runway and into a mound of snow, leading to an hours-long shutdown at the airport. And even though crews can remove ice from the runway, scraping it off the pavement can lead to potholes (坑洞) and other 【9】, which makes takeoffs and landings more dangerous. And of course, snow and freezing rain on the ground can affect visibility to the point where officials have to decide it’s not safe to fly at all.

But if ice and snow aren’t the problem in these extremely cold temperatures, it’s usually another factor: people.

Les Westbrooks: The airplane flies at high altitudes, -60 degrees. It’s made to do that. Humans are not made to be outside in -60 degrees weather. And so the human factor becomes a big, big factor, when it becomes extremely cold.

Baggage handlers, aircraft fuelers, and mechanics all have to stay warm. Some airports, like O’Hare in Chicago, set up heated shelters for their employees. Of course, with everyone taking breaks to warm up, not as much gets done, which leads to even more delays and cancellations.
