• 2．    Virginia，70，is a massage therapist（按摩治療師）from Canada who recently decided to transform a 2016 Ford Transit into her new home and take to 24/7 van（廂式貨車(chē)）life!After a client introduced her to a television series about tiny house living，Virginia thought， "I could do that!" And that's exactly what she did!After 38 years as a massage therapist，Virginia watched this show and thought about retirement for the very first time.
     She enlisted the help of her daughter and friends to put all the bits and pieces of the van together，but Virginia made sure to have a hand in almost every part of the process.You can see her personality woven throughout the van in features like the ceiling，wood quilted doors，and even the tiny space reserved for her massage table!
     One of Virginia's favorite parts of van life is the accepting community，regardless of how old you are or where you come from. "There are young people and older people and they all seem to accept one another because age isn't the priority—it's that we're in a van life and we have that similarity，so it's quite lovely"，Virginia said. "I love it."
     This was a future Virginia never expected，but she wouldn't trade any of it! "You don't know what you're going to be doing in four or five days，" Virginia explained. "Someone can say to you， 'Well，I'm going to Joshua Tree.' And you go， 'Joshua Tree!I never go to Joshua Tree.' And that can be what you do next!I love that part of it."
     She hopes to encourage others not to let factors like age or "what if" questions keep them from running toward their goals. "Start!Don't dream，" she said. "One foot in front of the other."

• 3．    Thirteen vehicles lined up last March to race across the Mojave Desert，seeking a million in prize money.To win，they had to finish the 142-mile race in less than 10 hours.Teams and watchers knew there might be no winner at all，because these vehicles were missing a key part — drivers.
     DARPA，the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency，organized the race as part of a push to develop robotic vehicles for future battlefields.But the Grand Challenge，as it was called，just proved how difficult it is to get a car to speed across an unfamiliar desert without human guidance.One had its brake locked up in the starting area.Another began by throwing itself onto a wall.Another got tied up by bushes near the road after 1.9 miles.
     One turned upside down.One took off in entirely the wrong direction and had to be disabled by remote control.One went a little more than a mile and rushed into a fence；another managed to go for six miles but stuck on a rock.The "winner"，if there was any，reached 7.8 miles before it ran into a long，narrow hole，and the front wheels caught on fire.
     "You get a lot of respect for natural abilities of the living things，" says Reinhold Bebringer，who helped design two of the car-size vehicles for a company called Sci-Autonies， "Even ants can do all these tasks effortlessly.It's very hard for us to put these abilities into our machines."
     The robotic vehicles，though with necessary modern equipment such as advanced computers and GPS guidance，had trouble figuring out fast enough the blocks ahead that a two-year-old human recognizes immediately.Sure，that very young child，who has just only learned to walk，may not think to wipe apple juice off her face，but she already knows that when there's a cookie in the kitchen，she has to climb up the table，and that when she gets to the cookie，it will taste good.She is more advanced，even months old，than any machine humans have designed.
  
  （1）Why did the watchers doubt if any of the vehicles could finish the race？

  
  A．They did not have any human guidance.
  B．The road was not familiar to the drivers.
  C．The distance was too long for the vehicles.
  D．The prize money was unattractive to the drivers.
  （2）What was the purpose of the race organized by DARPA？

  
  A．To raise money for producing more robotic vehicles.
  B．To push the development of vehicle industry.
  C．To train more people to drive in the desert.
  D．To improve the vehicles for future wars.
  （3）In the race，what was the greatest distance one robotic vehicle covered？

  
  A．Almost two miles.
  B．Six miles.
  C．About eight miles.
  D．About one mile.
  （4）What does the writer imply in the last paragraph？

  
  A．A robotic vehicle can finish a 142-mile race without any difficulties.
  B．A little child who has just learned to walk can't reach the cookie on the table.
  C．A robotic vehicle can't deal with a simple problem that a little child can solve.
  D．A little child can understand the importance of wiping apple juice off her face.

• 4．    The National Academies of Science （NAS） has released a new report looking at more than 800 scientific studies about the effects of electronic cigarettes on users' health.
     The report concludes a range of public health impacts of e-cigarettes.However，it does not conclude whether the overall impact is either positive or negative.The report pays special attention to the impact of e-cigarettes on young adults，who use them at higher rates than adults do.Experienced adult users of e-cigarettes can get just as much nicotine as from regular cigarettes.Nicotine is the addictive drug in tobacco.Most e-cigarettes contain and release a variety of substances in addition to nicotine that could be toxic.There is generally far less exposure to these other toxic substances from e-cigarettes than from regular cigarettes.
    Using e-cigarettes can be addictive and the severity of an addiction to e-cigarettes likely depends on many factors，including the device，the e-liquid used in the device，and how the user operates.The NAS report found a strong association between youth using e-cigarettes and their likelihood of trying conventional cigarettes.Nicotine is highly addictive at any age，but is especially dangerous for youth.The US Surgeon General has criticized e-cigarette marketers for using strategies that target young people.Many flavors appear to be aimed at teenagers，with some popular names such as Cherry Crush and Cotton Candy.Thus young people buy e-cigarettes more than any other tobacco product.
     American Cancer Society experts （ACS） acknowledge NAS report，including：an association between the use of e-cigarettes by youth and the eventual use of regular cigarettes；an evidence that e-cigarettes are not harmless，but are likely to be much less harmful than regular cigarettes and unknown risks of long-term use of e-cigarettes.These are similar to findings conducted by ACS researchers.They conclude that the overall health effects of electronic cigarettes are complex，and there is not yet agreement among the scientific community.
     The US Food and Drug Administration （FDA） is using its full authority to regulate all tobacco products.It announced in 2016 that it would begin regulating e-cigarettes.But it later delayed until 2022 the deadline for tobacco companies to apply for approval.
  
  （1）What do we learn about the new report from NAS？

  
  A．It focuses on the impact of e-cigarettes on adults.
  B．It states the comprehensive effects of e-cigarettes.
  C．It is based on 800 scientific studies on e-cigarettes.
  D．It is aimed to convince people not to use e-cigarettes.
  （2）What does paragraph 3 mainly intend to tell us？

  
  A．How e-cigarettes impact youth.
  B．What the NAS report is about youth.
  C．What danger the nicotine is to youth.
  D．How youth become attracted by e-cigarettes.
  （3）What's the opinion shared by ACS and NAS？

  
  A．E-cigarettes probably do no harm to health.
  B．E-cigarettes have an everlasting impact on health.
  C．E-cigarettes cause the same impact as regular cigarettes.
  D．E-cigarettes probably make youth become regular cigarette users.
  （4）What can be said about the future of e-cigarettes in the US？

  
  A．Unclear.
  B．Depressing.
  C．Brilliant.
  D．Promising.

• 5．To achieve something，you need the right mindset.You need a mindset that knows you can succeed at what you are aiming for.（1）

  Below are some pointers.
     You complain about life.
     （2）

  Do you find yourself complaining about your situation，or what other people have said or done？If you do，it means that you do not accept the reality of your situation or past.That causes stress.Rather than complain，if you have the power，you should change your situation.If you cannot change your situation，then you need to accept it.If something cannot be changed，then you must change your attitude about it.
     You want a pain-free life
     Don't fear pain.Pain is a part of living.You cannot travel new paths and attain success without the pain of hard work，taking risks and making mistakes.Finally，pain makes you stronger.（3）

  Rather be pleased that you have the opportunity to learn new lessons.
     You blame others for your problems
     If you feel anger and resentment against others，blaming them for your problems，then you need to change your mindset.（4）

  They only make you bitter.Instead of being angry，choose to learn and grow from negative experiences，and then let them go.From today，you can choose your own path and it starts with choosing your thoughts.
