【題目】When I walked into the house after school, the first thing I noticed was a box with items I recognized from my dad’s office. When he told me that he was laid off, I thought he was joking. Then I noticed his seriousness and realized he was telling the truth. My father has always been a hard worker. He has prided himself on his career. 1I guess I had taken his work for granted.

2For starters, he was home all the time. It meant my bed had to be made, my room cleaned up, and my homework done right after school. I would come home every day to find him at the computer searching for jobs.3He seemed down, though he tried to be optimistic. He asked my brother and me to spend less. I gave up my spending money, which wasn’t much. I also found a parttime job.

4He explained that he never wanted to be laid off again, so he was going to start his own business. Day by day, I watched him build it. One evening I asked if he needed help. “Only if it doesn’t affect school,” he said. I showed up at his office the next afternoon, and most afternoons after that for two months.

5The terrible experience for our family taught me how to deal with difficulties. Now I know that through creative problemsolving, I can always find Plan B. I can ask for help and take risks. What I have learned from my dad’s understanding of business and his work ethic(信條)are two of the most important lessons I will ever learn. And they will be my principles for success.

A.Providing for our family has been his joy.

B.I made every effort to solve his problems.

C.I began to notice how losing his job had affected him.

D. My father’s unemployment created many changes in our lives.

E. After months of searching, my dad decided to go in a totally different direction.

F. His courage and determination helped him to become successful in his new career.

G. I always knew he was a hard worker, but watching him in action influenced me a lot.

【題目】 One of the biggest enemies of smartphone batteries is the phones ’ screens. The screens keep getting bigger, and they need to keep bright for outdoor use. 1 But, a new OLED technology can increase brightness and energy efficiency ( 效率). The technology is being developed by a team at the Imperial College London. They’re using a special development process to produce OLEDs that give off polarized light (偏振光).

So, what's that all meaning? Screens often include filters (濾光器) to help reduce unpleasant bright light from outside. 2 However, they also can prevent lots of the light from the screen itself. Any light that doesn’t make it to your eyes is basically wasted energy. By creating OLEDs that send out polarized light, the team can get the light from the OLEDs to pass through a polarized filter while light from outside will still get filtered by it.

For now, the technology doesn’t mean much for phones we have in our hands. Since it's still being researched, it's not likely to find its way for upcoming phones very soon. 3

When it does, it would result in brighter screens and improved energy efficiency. Screens would not use the same amount of energy to produce bright light because none of it would be filtered out. 4

And, that would mean much longer-lasting batteries for smartphones.

5 For example, smartwatches don't pack large batteries, so any efficiency improvement would have a strong benefit.

A.That means they will use more energy.

B.Plenty of phones already get a full day of life.

C.This technology can be used in other areas as well.

D.But it would finally be applied to consumers’ phones.

E.It can give OLED screens a huge step forward in competition.

F.The new technology can almost double the efficiency of screens.

G.These make it easier to see the light coming from your phone's screen.

Once a group of 1 (high) successful engineers got together to visit their old university professor, Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life. While they were 2 (talk), the professor went and prepared coffee in the kitchen.

When they all had a cup of coffee in their hands, he said, “If you noticed, all the nice-looking expensive cups 5 (take)up, leaving behind the plain and cheap-looking ones. While it’s normal for you to choose the best for yourselves, that’s the source of your problems and stress. In 6 (real), the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. What mattered most was coffee, not the cup, 7 you went for the best cups directly and 8 (bad) still, you began eyeing each other’s cups. If life is coffee, then the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They’re just tools 9 hold and contain life, but the quality of life doesn’t change. Sometimes by 10 (concentrate) only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee in it.”

Don’t let the cups drive you, and enjoy the coffee instead.
