We all knew we can’t live on our own. A lot of things are very important in our lives, such as animals which are usual considered as one of the most essential part. They help us in many ways except providing their meat for us and making our diet variously. Moreover, people get much fun and pleasure when lived with them. In my opinion, how the animals give us may be more than the things we do for them, but they are our great and honest friends. So in the return, we should do our best protect them because we can not live without them.

【題目】Nobody wants to reach the end of their life and experience regret. Instead, we desire to experience satisfaction with the life we’ve been given. 1. To live a life without regret in the future, you should try to stay away from the following four common unhealthy habits.

2It is good to have a destination to go to but it is the journey that matters in the end. Too often, we live our lives from destination to destination. But life is not lived merely in these destinations. In fact, it is far more often lived in the pathways between them. We should appreciate the joy in the journey rather than always hurry to the next destination.

Be defined by your negative circumstances. Each morning we are born again. What we do today is what matters most. This is an important truth and an important promise. Our lives should not be defined by the negative circumstances that happened in our past. They may have affected our lives, but they do not write the final chapter. 3

Focus entirely on yourself. The size of our universe becomes smaller considerably when we place ourselves at the center. 4On the contrary, those who see their life as an opportunity to bring joy to others quickly find it themselves.

5Every excess (過量) adds burden to our lives. And yet we continue to pursue and accumulate more than we need—more houses, more cars, more clothes, and more dishes. Owning less means less cleaning, less burden, less anxiety, and less stress each day. It provides the space and opportunity to pursue the things in life that bring lasting satisfaction to our lives.

A. Blame everybody else.

B. Carry more than you need.

C. It is we ourselves who hold the pen.

D. Miss the joy of the journey for the destination.

E. Only a fool believes the wide road is necessarily the right road.

F. The fact is that too many people experience regret at the lives they chose to live.

G. And the people who are most focused on themselves are the least satisfied in life.

【題目】Researchers in Hungary have confirmed something many dog owners have long suspected: that canines understand our feelings.

Using a Magnetic Resonance Scanner, or MRI,scientists found that when it comes to emotions,dogs' brains are similar to those of humans.Dogs are usually not relaxed in a lab environment, but with a little petting and lots of treats they can be trained to sit still even in an MRI scanner.That's how researchers in Hungary's ELTE University were able to get images of their brains at work.

Research fellow Attila Andics says it helped them better understand the dogs' relationship with humans.“We have known for a long time that dogs and humans share similar social environment, but now our results show that dogs and humans also have similar brain mechanisms (大腦機制) to process social information,”said Andics.

After training 11 dogs to stay motionless while their brains were scanned, the researchers checked their neurological (神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)的) responses to about 200 emotionally significant sounds, from whining and crying to playful barking and laughing.They then compared the responses from human subjects.They found striking similarities.

Andics says it opens new possibilities for research.“It establishes a foundation of a new branch of comparative neuroscience, because until now it was not possible to measure the brain activities of a non-primate(非人靈長類動物) and the primate brain in a single experiment,” said Andics.

And what that tells ordinary dog owners, the Hungarian scientists say,is to treat your canine companions as friends,not mere animals, because they evidently understand human feelings.

1Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Dog's behaviors are the same as those of humans.

B. The emotions of dogs are similar to those of humans.

C. Usually dogs can sit still in a lab environment.

D. Dog owners shouldn't treat dogs as their friends.

2What does the underlined word “canines” mean in the first paragraph?

A. Animals. B. Dog owners.

C. Dogs. D. Researchers.

3How do researchers get the dogs to sit still?

A. By force. B. By comforting and treating.

C. By injection. D. By ignoring.

【題目】From self-driving cars to care-bots(care+robots) for elderly people, rapid development in technology has long represented a possible threat to many jobs normally performed by people. But experts now believe that almost 50 percent of occupations existing today will be completely unnecessary by 2025 as artificial intelligence continues to change businesses.

“The next fifteen years will see a revolution in how we work, and a revolution will necessarily take place in how we plan and think about workplaces,” said Peter Andrew, Director of Workplace Strategy for CBRE Asia Pacific.

A growing number of jobs in the future will require creative intelligence, social skills and the ability to use artificial intelligence.

The report is based on interviews with 200 experts, business leaders and young people from Asia Pacific, Europe and North America. It shows that in the US technology already destroys more jobs than it creates.

But the report states: “Losing occupations does not necessarily mean losing jobs — just changing what people do.” Growth in new jobs could occur as much, according to the research.

“The growth of 20 to 40 person companies that have the speed and technological know-how will directly challenge big companies,” it states.

A 2014 report by Pew Research found 52 percent of experts in artificial intelligence and robotics were optimistic about the future and believed there would still be enough jobs in the next few years. The optimists pictured “a future in which robots do not take the place of more jobs than they create,” according to Aaron Smith, the report’s co-author.

“Technology will continue to affect jobs, but more jobs seem likely to be created. Although there have always been unemployed people, when we reached a few billion people there were billions of jobs. There is no shortage of things that need to be done and that will not change,” Microsoft’s Jonathan Grudin told researchers.

1We can infer from the text that in the future _____.

A. people will face many difficulties

B. people will take up more creative jobs

C. artificial intelligence will threaten people's lives

D. most jobs will be done in traditional workplaces

2According to the report, _____.

A. people won't necessarily lose jobs

B. big companies will face fewer challenges

C. small companies will win against big companies

D. most people will become interested in technology

3What is the attitude of most experts in artificial intelligence and robotics to the future?

A. Mixed B. Worried.

C. Hopeful. D. Doubtful.

4Jonathan Grudin’s words in the last paragraph suggest that _____.

A. there will be enough jobs for people

B. things will change a lot in a few years

C. many people will become unemployed

D. technology will totally change future jobs
