21、   Imagine you're standing in line to buy an after-school snack at a store. You step up to the counter and the cashier scans your food. Next, you have to pay. But instead of scanning a QR code with your smartphone, you just hold out your hand so the cashier can scan your fingerprint. Or, a camera scans your face, your eyes or even your ear.

【1】 As technology companies move away from traditional password, biometric security, which includes fingerprint, face and voice ID, is becoming increasingly popular.

In 2013, Apple introduced the iPhone 5s, one of the first smartphones with a fingerprint scanner. Since then, using one's fingerprint to unlock a phone and make mobile payments has become commonplace, bringing convenience to our lives. And since lasts year, San-sun has featured eye-scanning technology in its top smartphone, while Apple's new iPhone X can even scan a user's face.

【2】 “Bio-metrics, ideally are good.” John Michener, a biometric expert, told tech website Inverse. “In practice, not so much.”

When introducing the new iPhone's Face ID feature at Apple's Keynote Event in September. Phil Schiller, Apple's senior vice president, said. “ 【3】”.

But it's already been done. In a video posted on community website Reddit on Nov 3, two brothers showed how they were each able to unlock the same iPhone X using their own face. Quartz reported. And they aren't even twins.

“We may expect too much from bio-metrics.” Anil Jain, a computer science professor at Michigan State University. told CBS news. “No security systems are perfect.”

Earlier this year, Jain found a way to trick biometric security. Using a printed copy of a thumbprint, she was able to unlock a dead person's smartphone for police.

“It's good to see bio-metrics being used more,” Jain told CBS News, “because it adds another factor for security. 【4】.”

A．But despite its popularity, experts warn that bio-metrics might not be as secure as we'd imagined

B．Security experts don't think it absolutely necessary to use biometric technology.

C．But using different security measures is the best defense.

D．Now, this type of technology might not be far away.

E．If a person's biometric information is stolen, that could have extremely serious results for him.

F．The chance that a random person could look at your iPhone X and unlock it with his face is about one in a million.

22、   Sitting close with your little ones from an early age and enjoying a book together is always a great way to spend time, but do you know reading to your children has a whole range of benefits that will give them a flying start in life?

Firstly, it’s a great introduction to vocabulary. Seeing an adult sounding out the words and linking them to the shapes on the page begins to build up vocabulary that they will use for the rest of their life.

Then there are a variety of good effects of hearing stories which improve their minds and develop social awareness and sills. At a time when they are perhaps stuck indoors more than ever before, reading is the best way to motivate children’s imagination. They can travel to the moon, meet the Gruffalo and pop in to a chocolate factory all before they’ve even had lunch!

There’s no better way to walk a mile in someone else’s shoes than reading their story and seeing things from another’s point of view is a great way to build empathy (共鸣), tolerance and qualities needed. There are some fantastic children’s books which show characters acting as strong role models. These stories can encourage future leaders and thinkers, so every child can feel they can achieve their dreams, from the Little Leaders series to Bedtime Stories for Rebel Girls.

Now is the perfect time to build up a library of excellent reads ready for children to enjoy now and in the future. They will create memories to last a lifetime. On top of the benefits for your little ones, it’s fun, relaxing and a great chance to go back and reread the best books from your own childhood.

【1】What does the undefined phrase “pop in to” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A.Visit. B.Start. C.Build. D.Leave.

【2】In which aspect does “Bedtime Stories for Rebel Girls?” do good to children?

A.Going to bed easily at bedtime. B.Building good qualities.

C.Playing a leader’s role. D.Bringing back sweet memories.

【3】What is the text mainly about?

A.Children’s reading habits. B.Children’s reading materials.

C.Benefits of reading to children. D.Ways of reading children’s books.

【4】What is the purpose of the last paragraph?

A.To explain. B.To inform. C.To describe. D.To appeal.

23、American actor James Dean has been dead for 64 years. James Dean, who died at the age of 25 in September 1955, starred in just three movies before he died in a car accident. They are Rebel Without a Cause, East of Eden and Giant. Yet, he will star in a new movie about the Vietnam War thanks to digital technology ,which generates(产生) images of James Dean by computer.

The idea that one of the movies' most beloved former stars would be recreated digitally for a new film has been met with criticism(批评). Captain America actor Chris Evans called the plans to use Dean's image in the film disrespectful.

However, Mark Roesler, the chairman of CMG said, “Dean has more than 183,000 followers on Instagram, and that he is still important today. He was known as Hollywood's ‘rebel(叛逆)' who famously said 'if a man can bridge the gap(沟壑) between life and death, if he can live after he's dead, then maybe he is a great man.” Roesler added, “What was considered rebellious in the 50's is very different from what is rebellious today, and we feel confident that he would support this modern day act of rebellion.”

Anton Ernst, the film's director, said, “1 respect Dean's life and history. The movie is one of hope and love. There are still a lot of James Dean's fans worldwide and there would always be critics. All we can do is to tell a great story.” Ernst added, “The Dean family views this as his fourth movie, a movie he never got to make. We do not want to let his fans down.”

24、In the United States, it is not usual to telephone someone early in the morning. If you telephone early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. So it is with the telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he may think that it’s a matter of life and death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.

In social life, time plays a very important part. In the USA guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party reaches them only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time is not the same in different cultures that treat time differently; being on time is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not on time, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the USA no one would think of keeping a business friend for an hour; it would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late is expected to make a shout apology. It he is less than 5 minutes late, he will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.

【1】A call at midnight would mean_________.

A. it is a matter of life and death

B. the matter is too difficult to handle

C. the matter requires immediate attention

D. the matter is less important

【2】According to the passage, time plays a very important part in_______.

A. getting along with others   B. private life

C. everyday life   D. business

【3】In the passage, the author suggests that invitation cards should be sent________.

A. three or four days before the party date in all cultures

B. three or four days before the party date in the USA

C. three or four days before the party date in some cultures

D. at your chosen time

At that time my family lived a stone's _______ from Ismail’s. And no one was bothered that Ismail was a Malay Muslim(穆斯林) and I was an Indian Hindu(印度教徒)—we just accept our differences.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

The dramatic incident occurred during an afternoon hike. Four friends and teammates from Northwest College in Cody , Wyoming, had been hiking in the Montana national forest. As they hiked, a bear suddenly attacked the closest hiker Brady Lowry. “It shook me around and I didn't know what to do,” Brady recalled the terrifying attack. The bear shook him by the arm and then threw him away.

Brady's friend, Kendall Cummings, reacted quickly to try to scare the bear away. He yelled and kicked at the bear and pulled on the bear's fur. “I didn't want to lose my friend,” said Kendall.“I could have run and potentially lost a friend but I didn't do that. I thought I would get him off and save him.”

The bear turned its attention to Kendall and knocked him to the ground. In protecting his friend, Kendall became the target of the bear's forceful attack. Eventually, the other teammates scared the bear enough so that it soon withdrew and ran off.

After the attack, Kendall was badly injured, but he managed to pull himself up. The teammates then helped Kendall off the mountain by supporting his weight and carrying him part of the way. Once the boys reached a location with cell service, they dialed 911 for help.

After half an hour, some rescuers arrived at the scene. They examined Kendall and Brady and they were sent to Billings Clinic Hospital in a rush for their injuries. Brady broke his arm and suffered serious wounds in the initial attack. Kendall underwent surgery for more serious injuries on his face and arm. Both boys were on the road to recovery. Their wrestling coach, Jim Zeigler, arrived at the hospital along with the rest of the team to offer support.
