• 12．Yesterday after work，the boss told me I was fired.When I walked along a riverbed sadly，I suddenly realized it was New Year's Day，a day to start afresh.
     I passed by a man holding his son，one or two years old.The baby's face was in pure joy，and his innocent eyes were full of wonder.The simple sweetness of the baby made me moved.
     Walking on，I saw a young couple repairing their bicycle.They smiled at me and said， "Happy New Year!" I smiled and wished them the same.It was a simple thing，but for a moment it brought me a sudden joy.
     I kept walking，enjoying the cheerful singing of birds.With people around laughing out loud，an old woman immersed herself in her sewing.She didn't seem either happy or sad.A feeling of timeless peace flowed through me and all fear of what the future might bring disappeared.I thanked her in my heart，and moved on.
     As I reached home，I was filled with great thanks and hope for life，which took me a long time to find.Actually，happiness could be simple and easy.Now I knew whatever the New Year would bring，there would be joy and enough love to help me through the hard times we all had to face.
     "Happy New Year!" I said to myself.

• 13．Modern technology has a strong influence on every part of our life，including the education in the universities.
     Ashok Goel，a professor of Georgia Institute of Technology，says he uses the Internet in almost all of the classes he teaches.Every term over 300 graduate students take his class on artificial intelligence.The students never meet in person.All of the classes take place online-through a website，which lets students ask questions and complete their work from anywhere in the world.
     Having hundreds of students in a class means Ashok Goel has to answer thousands of questions.He has eight teaching assistants to help him.But even that is not enough to give all the students the help they need.
     So，in January，Goel had an idea.He decided to try an experiment.At the start of the spring 2016 term，he added a new member to his teaching team：Jill Watson.She was able to answer questions faster than most other teaching assistants.And she was available 24 hours a day.
     It was only at the end of the term that Goel's students learned Watson's true identity：she was not a real person like the other teaching assistants.Jill Watson was an AI computer program.
     And it seems Goel's stories will become more common in the universities.
     A website called Campus Technology publishes stories about how colleges and universities use new technology.In August，the site published a survey of over 500 professors and their use of technology.Fifty-five percent of the professors asked students to use study materials online before coming to class.And，more than 70 percent combined online materials and face-to-face teaching in their classrooms.
  
  （1）What can we learn from Paragraph 2？

  
  A．Goel seldom uses the Internet in his class.
  B．The students take Goel's class online.
  C．Goel occasionally meets his colleagues.
  D．Goel's students dislike going to college.
  （2）Why does Goel have many teaching assistants to help him？

  
  A．He is not a clever professor.
  B．He wants to have a good sleep.
  C．He does not want to give answers.
  D．He has no time to answer all the questions.
  （3）What can we know about Jill Watson？

  
  A．She was a real person.
  B．She helped Goel with his work.
  C．She was one of Goel's students.
  D．She could ask all the questions.
  （4）What does the underlined word "identity" in Paragraph 5 probably mean？

  
  A．Who a person is.
  B．The name of a person.
  C．Where a person is from.
  D．A person's contribution.
  （5）What is the passage mainly about？

  
  A．Ashok Goel has eight assistants to help him.
  B．New technology is changing our way of living.
  C．Modern technology greatly influences college education.
  D．Teachers will be completely replaced by the computers.
