After he left college, Steven Jobs worked as a video game designer at Atari. He worked there for only several months and then he went to India. He hoped that the trip would give him some new ideas and a change in life for the better.

Steven Jobs lived on a farm in California for a year after he returned from India. And then, in 1975, he began to make a new type of computer. Along with his friend Stephen Woziak, he designed the Apple Computer in his garage(车库）.

26、The Internet, mobile phones and Ipads are part of our lives now. Technology is greatly affecting all ways of our lives, from the ways we work to the ways we play. And it even causes a number of social problems such as cloning humans.

We have had lots of technology and it has changed our lives a lot. There is no doubt that humans will continue to use more and more technology. Here are some examples of modern technology that will change our ideas and will affect our lives greatly.

Global Positioning System (GPS) (全球定位系统)

It’s a system that uses radio signals from satellites to show exact (精确地) information. It tells you where the user is on the earth in all weather conditions. It’s made up of three parts: satellites, control equipments (设备) on land and receivers.

Space Technology

Russian and American scientists have worked together for the International Space Station (ISS) for a long time. They hope the ISS will provide a long-lasting lab. Such a lab will bring humans limitless (无限的) advantages. It’s even hoped that one day space technology will take humans to their new houses in space.

Underwater Robot

Hercules is a kind of Underwater Robot with some high technology equipments. It will be used to search for ancient ships which were destroyed into the deep sea during their journey long ago.

The world is changing so quickly that it’s hard for us to catch up with all the new inventions because they seem to come out every month. It’s important for us to learn about new technology and the role that it plays in our lives. So we should be willing to accept modern technology, or we will fall behind the time.

27、   Are you tired of people asking the questions, “What’s your hobby?” Well, You always hear the same old answers: reading, listening to music, painting and so on. There’s nothing wrong with these activities, but maybe it’s time for some new ideas.

For example, how about “yarn bombing”? What’s that? Maybe you have heard of knitting（编织） to make sweaters, scarves, gloves and other things. With yarn bombing, people knit different kinds of things, like sweaters for trees or hats for stones in the park. It’s the latest form of artwork. In some cities, people are even paying knitters to decorate public places with their art. Some call it “Knitting Graffiti（涂鸦）,” but unlike other forms of graffiti, it is easy to take away, and it doesn’t destroy anything.

Do you like those TV shows in which the police use science to solve crimes? If you do, you can take up “forensic science” as a hobby. That’s the science used to investigate（调查）crimes. You can get a set of at-home fingerprint tools and find out who is taking cookies from the cookie box or perhaps who is reading your secret diary.

Finally, here’s a hobby for those who want to have fun and make a little money. It’s called “upcycling”. You’ve heard of recycling-you put things like glass, paper and plastic in special boxes so the materials can be used again. Upcyclers take old things and make them into new things. Sometimes they can even sell the things they make. For example, you can take an old book bag, ▲ and decorate it. It will look like a cool new bag. There’s even a magazine called Upcycle that is full of ideas. All you need for this is an old thing and a good imagination.

So look around for a new and interesting hobby. Then when someone asks you the question “What’s your hobby?” you can give them an answer that they’ve never heard before.

【1】What do you need if you want to know who read your diary?

A.Rich imagination. B.Science magazines. C.Knitting tools. D.Fingerprint tools.

【2】Which is the best expression to fill in “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 4?

A.clean it up B.look it up C.give it up D.pick it up

【3】Which of the following is TRUE?

A.Knitting Graffiti is difficult to take away.

B.A lot of people make a living by upcycling.

C.It’s a good idea to have a new and interesting hobby.

D.The police usually take up forensic science as a hobby.

【4】How is the passage organized?

A. B. C. D.

28、请根据短文内容和首字母提示，在下文空格处填入适当的词使短文完整。（每空一词）

“The Arctic(北极) is dying,” researchers returning from the largest-ever Arctic expedition(远征) have warned.

The program the scientists are w【1】 on is called MOSAiC—Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate(北极气候研究多学科漂流观测计划). Scientists from 20 countries, i【2】 China, spent a year in the Arctic from September 2019 to October 2020 to collect data(数据) about environment and climate change. They predict that if we k【3】 going as we are, the Arctic will have no ice during the summer within just a few decades.

Global warming and the melting(融化) of sea ice are having a huge influence on Arctic life. For example, polar bears depend on sea ice to hunt seals. But when the sea ice melts, they are f【4】 onto land, where there’s not enough food for them. Scientists say the number of polar bears will d【5】 by two-thirds to less than 10,000 by 2050.

A【6】 the days get warmer, there’s more rain than snow in the Arctic. This hurts the millions of reindeer(驯鹿) and caribou(北美驯鹿) that eat moss(苔藓) , lichen(地衣) and grass. When rain falls, it locks there animals’ food in ice i【7】 of snow. Many of them starve(挨饿) to death because they can’t r【8】 the food under the ice.

Such losses have destroyed the lives of indigenous(土著的) people who depend on reindeer and caribou for a l【9】. The Inuit(因纽特人) use very part of the caribou—sinew(筋) for thread, hide(皮毛) for clothing, and flesh(肉) for food. In Europe and Russia, the Sami people raise thousands of reindeer. But as these animals are disappearing, their traditional way of living, which has existed for thousands of years, may be f【10】 only in memory in the future. What a pity it is!
