Recently，Chongqing Three Gorges University has held an activity named"Cell Phone Ninja"（手机忍者）．They would like their students not to use cell phones for 21 days．It is really a challenge（挑战） for most students．
The activity started on April 12．Each student who volunteered to take part in this activity got a bracelet（手环）．If the students did not use their cell phones，there would be a photo on the screen of the bracelet to show that．If they used their cell phones，a different photo would appear on the screen of the bracelet．After the last class of each day，the students sent the photos to the school's public WeChat．
More than 800 students wished to take part in this test，and 400 were chosen．After seven days，only 103students remained．The test was set for 21 days because some scientists believe that 21 days is long enough to help form（形成） a habit．
According to the teachers in the university，the activity was not a competition．It depended on students themselves to make the decision．The teachers hoped their students could form．better study habits through activities like this one．
51．When did the activity"Cell Phone Ninja"start？
52．Were 400students chosen to take part in this test？
53．Why was the test set for 21 days？
54．What was the bracelet used for in this test？

Hopes， ambitions（抱负）， dreams． How many of yours will you achieve？ When you look back at your life in the future， will you have good memories of all the things that you did？ Or will you regret all the things that you didn't do？
Of course， there's no easy road to success， but one thing is certain： success won't come if you don't do anything． So how do you do it？ This four﹣step model will help you to make your dreams come true．
Step 1：
What would you like to do？ Write down all your ambitions， They may be very general， such as I would like to be fitter． I want to be famous． or It would be nice to have more friends． Or they may be more specific，like I've always wanted to play a musical instrument．
Step 2：
Now you need to do two things：
1．Choose one or two ambitions． If you try to do everything， you won't do anything．
2．Set a time limit（限定）． This is very important， because you will have a goal and you will also know when you have reached it．
So，for example，I would like to be fitter in Step 1 now becomes I will be fit enough to join a half﹣marathon race by the end of August．
Step 3：
Now that you' ve made your choice， what are you actually going to do to achieve your goal？ So， in our example， I will be fit enough to join a half﹣marathon race by the end of August， becomes I'm going to join a running club． or I 'm going to go jogging three times a week．
Step 4：
This is when you change your intentions（意图） into specific actions， Prepare to do something at a specific time． If you don't do this， your dreams and plans will just stay as dreams and plans． So now I'm going to join a running club，becomes I'm meeting the president of the Cheetahs Running Club on Monday evening at 5：30．
Don't let your ambitions die． Follow this four step plan and make your dream come true．
A． Change I would like to…to I will… B． Change I did…to I do… C． How to be successful D． Change I'm going to…to I'm doing…on…at… E． Think about your ambitions F． Change I will…to I'm going to… |

Prevailing（盛行的） digital（数字的） reading
The growth of digital reading has made reading more popular among the Chinese． According to a survey， about 76 percent said they had accessed （访问） content through digital channels． Chen Chengpei， an office worker in Xiamen City loves reading on his mobile phone app in his spare time． He thinks it's so easy to kill the spare minutes．Mobile phone reading has become the main channel for him to get information． He has downloaded seven news apps， through which he reads for one or two hours a day．
Listening to audiobooks has become a new growth point in terms of reading habits． ZhangJin from Beijing likes reading 40 minutes on his mobile while going to work on the bus in the morning， and listening to audiobooks on the way home． According to Ximalaya， 16.9 percent of its total users listen to its audiobooks． To attract more users， the mobile app allows users to vote for the book they hope to listen to most． The audio app tries to meet their needs．
①
Li Yang， a student in Beijing， used to be worried by piles of books as her house is too small． The problem was solved when she started to sell the used books on an online second﹣hand bookstore Deja Vu．"By selling them， most of my books which used to gather dust in the corner can come to life again． "she said．
According to a survey by giant Alibaba in 2018， the market for the second﹣hand book was booming last year as more Chinese tend to trade or exchange their used books online．
The rise of online second﹣hand book platforms and sharing ideas also contributed to the booming book recycling．
Users are able to sell their books by scanning the barcode（扫条形码） of books and then wait for the courier（快递员） to collect them． The collected books will be cleaned， disinfected（消毒）and packed before selling to other readers at a lower price．
According to Deja Vu， its total users hit 1.4 million in 2018， with 2 million used books being sold． It has a daily business of 20，000 books． "When I see my books being read by others，I can feel a pleasure of sharing， which is really amazing． Li Yang said．

（61） Friends are important in our life，because no one wants to be lonely．However，some people have difficulty in making friends and they often feel lonely．（62） According to a new study from Chicago University，the reason is that this kind of people have brains（脑）different from common people．And they often feel unsafe when facing strangers．

（64） "It's not enough for people just to get in touch with others online．That's because most people don't show their true selves there，"said Dr． Cacioppo．one of this study's scientists．Another step is to get an action plan．As"actions speak louder than words"，people need to be active to communicate with others．They also need to meet people with the same interests．Also，they should try to expect the best from each activity．（65） Who knows what good things are waiting for us？

On June 9th，1870， Charles Dickens died at the age of 58． The next day， a headline in The New York Times read： "Death of the Great Novelist …Will Be Remembered by the People …"
The headline was not overstating （夸大） the popularity of Dickens．Even today， the British novelist is loved by readers all over the world．Dickens created some unforgettable characters． You must have heard of or even read some of his novels： Oliver Twist， A Christmas Carol and A Tale of Two Cities． A Tale of Two Cities has sold more than 200 million copies． Since 1897， there have been more than 300 film and TV adaptations （改编版本）of Dickens' works．A Christmas Carol alone has had nearly 50．
Natalie Mcknight is a literature professor （文学教授） who studies Dickens and his works．She explains why the novelist has remained so popular． One important reason， she says，is that Dickens wrote from his heart． He tried hard to produce emotional effects （情感效果） among his readers． In his works，he paid special attention to the "little man" at the bottom of society in the UK， which deeply mirrored the social reality at that time． A Christmas Carol， for example， was written to make every reader think about how they could make a difference to their society． People always enjoy works that make them laugh， cry and think． Many other 9th﹣century novelists wrote entertaining （娱乐的） works． However， few of them worked as hard as Dickens to touch the readers deeply．
Dickens wrote about situations and emotions that still interest people today． He used his pen to fight social inequality and gave voice to the poor． His works led to many important social changes． Readers always enjoy seeing poor people rise and succeed．

Think of somebody you really admire.You will probably find that their success didn't come easily.As "Father of Hybrid Rice（杂交水稻）"，Yuan Longping got over great difficulties and spent his whole life working to reduce world hunger and helping to feed the country with the largest population.
Wu Mengchao，the "Father of Chinese Hepatobiliary Surgery（肝胆外科）"，focused on saving people's lives for nearly eighty years.He performed more than 16，000 operations during his life.Holding the surgeon' s knife for such a long time deformed his fingers .Wu once said， "It would my greatest happiness if I could work at the operating table until my dying day."
In1969，in order to solve the problem of treating malaria（疟疾），Tu Youyou，pharmacologist （药学家） took on the job as head of a research team.She and her teammates performed different kinds of experiments.However，the results were disappointing.Instead of giving up，they kept trying.Finally，in1972，they made it!In2015，at the age of 85，she received Nobel Prize.
Thomas Edison，the inventor of the light bulb believed that every failure was a step towards success.He once said， "If I find 10，000 ways something won't work，I haven't failed.I am not discouraged，because every wrong try is another step forward.
Sometimes，their success was a surprise，even to themselves.The famous scientist Alexander Fleming said， "When I woke up just after daybreak on 28th September，1928，I certainly didn't plan to revolutionize（变革） all medicine by discovering the world's' first antibiotic（抗生素）.But I guess that was exactly what I did.
Some people only became successful after their deaths.Not like Pablo Picasso who became famous and very rich during his lifetime，the artist Vincent Van Gogh only sold one painting all through his life and that was to a friend.But he kept painting and he painted more than 2，000 artworks in the following ten years.Now his paintings are very popular and they sell for millions of pounds.

It's been 100 years since the actor and filmmaker Charlie Chaplin produced the film The Kid ，which many consider to be his greatest one.
Like all films at the time，The Kid was made in black and white and was silent （made without any sound，not even the characters talking）.The story is about the relationship between " the Tramp"，played by Chaplin，and his adopted （领养的）child，played by Jackie Coogan.The pair develop a partnership where the six year﹣old boy breaks windows and runs away，so that Chaplin's character can offer his services as a window fixer.
Although the film is a comedy，it also has some tragedy，reflecting Chaplin's own life.He started testing actors for the role of the Kid just a few days after his baby son had died.Chaplin was known for being hard to please，and it is said that if he could，he would have played every role in every one of his films.When Chaplin visited a theatre，a dancer brought his son，Jackie Coogan，on stage，and Chaplin knew he had his co﹣star （联袂主演者）.Chaplin later wrote， "All children in some form have talents；the trick is to bring it out in them.With Jackie it was easy.
Like the Kid in the film，Chaplin and his brother Sydney grew up very poor.They lived in London and were raised by their mother.When Chaplin was 10 years old，his mum became too ill to loo after her sons，so they had to take care of themselves.He later wrote that the film sets in The Kid were based （基于）on the places where he and Sydney had lived with their mother as children. "Perhaps that's why the film had some truth，" he said.

was possibly talented in acting |

knew much about Chaplin before |
| D． |
played every role in Chaplin's films |

He had a poor childhood experience. |
| B． |
He was brought up by his father. |

You may study differently from your friends，but your study habits are not wrong!
Kelly and Maria are best friends with a lot in common.They love doing things together，such as going to movies and concerts，shopping，or just sitting at a small cafe.Since they take a lot of the same school subjects，they would love to study together，but they find this impossible.Their working styles are so completely different that they can't be in the same room while they are studying!
Kelly would like to study in a clean，open space，while Maria works best with books，papers and other things around her.Kelly prefers to study in a totally silent room，but Maria loves to play music or even have the TV on.Kelly can sit for hours without moving，and often gets all her homework done in one sitting.Maria，however，is always getting up，and says that she thinks best when she's on the move.
You might be asking yourself：which way of studying gets better results？Many people believe that a silent，tidy setting（环境）is the way to go，▲.Some research has even shown that outside noise and untidiness help some people focus（聚焦）their attention，because it makes them form a "wall" in their mind around what they are doing and improves their focus.
So，if you're a student who chooses to study while sitting at a table in a busy shopping center，don't worry about it.If you work in total silence，that's OK，too.Judging from Kelly 's and Maria's study habits，the best way to study is the way that works for you.In their very different ways，both of them do well in school，and both finish their work within the required time as well.
（1）Kelly and Maria are mentioned as an example in this passage to .
A.discuss two different study habits
B.compare the differences in their hobbies
C.show the importance of a good study habit
D.express the writer's worry about their friendship
（2）Which of the following is the best to fill in the blank in Paragraph 4？
A.and they have difficulty in study
B.and it can be true for most of them
C.but that doesn't seem necessarily true
D.but nobody does research on this question
（3）What can we infer from the last paragraph of this passage？
A.Students who like to study in silence will be more successful.
B.Both study habits can help students make progress in their studies.
C.Only a small number of students can study well in a noisy situation.
D.Friends with different study habits can do better by studying together.
（4）What can be the best title for the passage？
A.Are you studying the "right" way？
B.How can you improve your study habits？
C.Is it possible for friends to study well together？
D.What are the advantages of different study settings？
You've been learning words since you were a tiny baby.At first，you learned them only by hearing other people talk.Now that you're a reader，you have another way to learn words.What should you do when you come to a word and you think you don't know what it means？（1） .
Say it
First sound it out.Then say it to yourself.（2） .Sometimes you know a word in your head but you don't know what it looks like in print.So if you match up what you know and what you read ﹣ you have the word!
Use context
If this doesn't work，take the next step：look at the context the other words and sentences around it.Read this sentence：When it rained，the dog looked for shelter in the doorway.（3） .Rain and in the doorway might give you helpful information.
（4）
If the context doesn't help，look at the parts of the word.Does it have any parts you know？These can help you understand what it means.If you don't know the meaning of miner，try looking at parts of the word.You might know that a mine is a place underground where people get coal and other valuable things.A lot of times， ﹣er at the end of a word means "a person who does something".So a miner might be someone who works in a mine.
Look it up
If the three steps above don't work，you can look it up.（5） ，either a book or online.
Nobody knows the meaning of every word，but good readers know how to understand words they don't know.
Choose five sentences out of the six in the box to complete the passage.Each choice should be used only once.
A.Use word parts
B.Look at the words
C.It might sound like a word you know
D.You can find the word in a dictionary
E.Following some easy steps can help you
F.If the word shelter doesn't look familiar，look at the words around it
From an early age，we were taught that if we wanted to be successful，we had to study hard and get good results at school.In fact，good students may just end up doing jobs they don't like，and some even lead an unhappy life.Why is it like that？
In some parents' eyes，school grades matter most for their kids.In reality，there are many things to consider besides the school subjects，for example，how to be a happy person，what to do to keep healthy，and how to get along well with others.That is to say，school is not just enough if you want to have a great life.
Doing well in school is different from doing well in life.Studies show that people who failed at school may not end up failing in life.You may have already known that some famous people，like Thomas Edison and Steve Jobs，didn't do very well at school or even failed to finish school.In fact，there are a lot more than just the big shots who are successful in life without finishing school.They seize （抓住）every chance to learn and finally make it to the top.
Life is really a long lesson，so long that you can't define（界定）a person's success by just one section （部分）of it.If you have already finished school，keep learning because what you have learned at school will never be enough to live a satisfying life.If you are still studying，whether you are good or bad at school，don't take your school results too seriously as long as you have put your heart into it.Keep learning to make the most of your talents（天赋）.That's how you can live a happy and successful life.
（1）What's the writer's main purpose of writing Paragraph（段落）One？

B.To give examples.
C.To provide a solution.
（2）In some parents' eyes，what's the most important for their kids based on Paragraph Two？

A.好学生.
B.神枪手.
C.大人物.
（4）According to the passage，which sentence may agree with the writer's idea？
A.It takes money to be successful.
B.School grades aren't everything.
C.Successful people never finish school.
（5）What can we infer （推断） from the text？
A.Old habits die hard.
B.Leaning is a lifelong journey.
C.Good grades always promise a successful life.
Do you get lots of reading tasks as part of your homework？ You might wish that you could read faster．There are some people who say that you can learn to read at super﹣high speeds． But experts disagree on this idea．
"Speed reading is not actually possible，" said Elizabeth Schotter，a scientist at the University of South Florida， US． Schotter pointed out that people who say that they can teach others how to speed read are usually doing it to make money by selling courses and books．
In fact， speed reading has been made known to people since 1959， when US educator Evelyn Wood introduced a speed reading program． Several US presidents have even asked their officers to take speed reading courses． However， there is no real science behind speed reading．
Schotter explained that reading is a task difficult to finish． It includes four steps： seeing a word， getting back its meaning from your memory， connecting it to other words in the same sentence， and then moving on to the next word．This process uses many parts of the brain at one time． It can't be sped up．
Some people who say they are able to speed read are simply skimming． Skimming involves reading a passage quickly and only looking for certain words or sentences．
Skimmers can figure out the main idea of a passage﹣especially if it's a topic they're familiar with﹣﹣but they will not be able to remember all the pieces of information．
So is there a way to become a faster reader？ Research suggests that you should try to improve the number of your words and simply read more．
（1）According to Schotter， which of the following is TRUE？
A． It's good for students to read at super high speeds．
B． Speed reading courses are supported by real science．
C． Reading includes four steps，it's not easy to finish．
D． Speed reading courses and books are useful for us．
（2）What can we know from Paragraph 5？
A． Skimmers will not forget all the pieces of information．
B． You must read the passage carefully when you are skimming it．
C． Skimming focuses on all the words or sentences of a passage．
D． By skimming， skimmers may find the main idea of a passage．
（3）According to this passage， how to read faster？
A． Learn more words and read more．
B． Taking speed reading courses can help．
C． Read more books about speed reading．
D． See the words at super﹣high speeds．
Some researchers explain how most people form their social groups with people of their age．Especially， as children and teenagers， even adults， people make their friends based on proximity （邻近） more than anything else． Even in a college classroom，the students may not make friends with those who have similar personalities and interests． It's the people they really sit next to． Clearly， who stands to you has the greatest influence on you．As Jim Rohn has widely said． "You are average （平均） of five people you spend the most time with．"
Over the past ten months， I've paid Ryan， it Famous writer of several bestselling books， to help with
the book I'm writing． Working with him has shown me just how low my standards for my work are． For example， every time I send him a drab （草稿）， he shows me how it could be 10 times better，and he holds me to that standard．
▲ It's because that I don't know what I don't know． Working with Ryan has made me realize what is possible and what it takes to create something powerful．
Like Ryan，my business partner Richard has wonderful ideas and far different experience than I have．He has written 36 New York Times Bestsellers．He's been speaking and doing events for 20 years．Richard always performs at high levels，and he is also very strict with me because my performance is a reflection （反映） on him． It's not a bad thing because it creates high pressure （压力） to help me make great progress in organizing author training．
In a word，you need to stay with those people who can help you realize your level and potential．Staying with people who have higher standards is the fastest way for you to change．If you don't change your environment， your progress will be very slow． Who you stay with has huge importance． You can't ignore this．
（1）Why did the writer quote （引用） Jim Rohn's words in Paragraph 1？

A． The writer's performance．
B． Jim Rohn's famous saying．

（4）The writer mainly wants to tell us that ．
A． we can improve our working abilities by ourselves

C． we'd better make friends with those who can hold us to higher levels
D． we should stay with those who have similar personalities and interests
Robots Are Now Teaching English!
Get ready． Robots are about to invade our classroom． From Korea to Japan to the United States， schools are putting English﹣speaking robots in front of their students． In Korea， robots are the new teaching assistants in a number of preschools and kindergartens． The young students say that the robots are fun， but are these children really learning anything？
I don't think a computer will ever be able to do what a teacher does． A teacher has to be able to respond to students as individuals （个体）．__▲__and a teacher has to change his or her teaching style to fit the needs of the student． I seriously doubt that a computer will ever be able to do this even though the big data （数据）is widely used in the world．
4 Comments on "Robots Are Now Teaching English!"
Sara says：
In my opinion， schools should spend money training human teachers rather than buying robots． Research shows that children learn more from real speakers than from recorded conversations．
Keiko says：
I don't think you can learn a language without real human interaction．After all， robots cannot think as humans do．
Hassan says：
Robots might be able to help people lean a language， but I don't think they should replace teachers because robots are just machines without human feelings．
Nancy says：
I think robots might be very helpful in the classroom． A child might be less afraid to make a mistake in front of a robot than in front of a real person．

Have you ever wanted to achieve a goal and ended up doing lots of research on how to achieve it？ As you learned more and more． it seemed you knew less and less． That is because when you learned a new concept （ 概念）， you found that there was a lot more to know about it．
Usually， people think they need to get more and more information before trying a new idea． There is nothing wrong with learning a lot， but when you let learning get in the way of doing，you will never get going．
One of the best ways to learn is to take action and learn from the results that you get from those actions． Don't be afraid of not being perfect and just take the first step． You will go further than those who are still in preparation． It's good to be prepared， but over﹣preparation in trying to reach a goal won't get you results． The knowledge and skills that you will need will be picked along the way．

change that， Just take the first step．
