1. The 21st-century doctor now carries a whole set of diagnostic tools in his briefcase, and yes, unfortunately, the iconic stethoscope (听诊器) is now a little outdated! So, exactly what are all these necessary devices for the 21st century doctor?
The stethoscope goes digital. The Eko Core is the new revolution of stethoscopes. It can amplify the sounds of the heart by 40 times when in digital mode. It can also stream the heartbeat data to the cloud, allowing the physician to see the heartbeat in wave form on a mobile device as well as hear the sound at an amplified level.
A palm-sized ECG device. If someone asks you to think about the electrocardiogram (心电图) device, you will probably imagine a huge machine with many wires that are connected to a screen giving someone’s heart activity. In today’s digital health era, this machine has been down-sized so it can fit in the palm of your hand. The KardiaMobile 6L is a 6-lead medical-grade pocket-sized ECG machine. It will send the readings directly to your smartphone.
High-tech eye tech. The Personal Vision Tracker and the EyeQue Insight are light, accurate, and inexpensive devices. They allow for eye tests to be performed remotely.

2. China’s newest online hit is a pink fox called LinaBell, who resides in Shanghai Disneyland Resort. After making her first public appearance on September 29, the life-size plush animal has taken the Chinese social media. On Weibo, the hashtag (话题标签) of LinaBell had amounted to over 430 million views by November 19.
Unlike other Disney characters, LinaBell has never been on the big or small screen. She’s not in any cartoon series or movie and doesn’t have a full back story. All we know is that she met Duffy,
Mickey Mouse’s teddy bear, in the forest and helped him find his way home, according to Disney’s introduction video of the character. Despite her confusing history, she has gone to conquer the hearts of many Chinese. But why?
A lot is w orking for LinaBell. Disney says she’s “a fox with an curious mind and the intelligence that supports it,” but those who’ve come to know her say they were swooned by her unique personality and adorable appearance.
Videos of meet-and-greets with the pink fox are all over the internet and LinaBell can be seen communicating with every visitor through expressive body language. She corrects those who mispronounce her name, shows love for those queuing up for hours to meet her and hands out free candy. She’s been called witty, sharp and fun-loving. “I feel cured by LinaBell, I watch her videos every night before bed. I even got an annual pass to Disney just for her,” wrote a blogger called “Dobby.” She posted a video of her talking to LinaBell on her account on so cial media platform “Little Red Book” and received 15,000 likes.
As a “locally born and bred” Chinese fox, LinaBell can understand different Chinese dialects beyond that of Shanghai, and can communicate with visitors from different parts of China. “With or without her fans waiting in line, LinaBell is delivering love and warmth, she made me forget all the displeasure of real life,” reads one popular comment by Miss Luo. “Maybe this is the power of magic.”

3. We arrived here to find everything was in chaos. The whole island is flooded. Many people have fled to mountains to escape. The hospital is badly damaged and in a mess; it cannot be used at the moment.
My colleagues on the medical team and I are going to set up a temporary clinic on the north side of the town. Medical supplies are now on their way from abroad. One of the health problems is that people who need to take medicines regularly cannot get hold of them in a disaster such as this. The majority of wounds are from walls and roofs that have fallen on people. The water makes it difficult for the cuts and wounds to get better and easy for bacteria to spread. Meanwhile, shelter and access to food and clean water are big problems.
One good thing here is that many people can speak English or French. This makes it easier to communicate and find out about people’s problems. It seems that many people here just need to talk, so I am finding that my job is not limited to being a nurse. It is also being a person who can listen to and comfort others.
It is quite horrible to imagine losing everything including some of your family. Our first job here was to try to organize a place to bury the people who were killed. We needed to do this as soon as possible to stop disease spreading. That was really a horrible job and I felt so sorry for their relatives.
When I think back to all the experiences that I have been around the world since joining Doctors without Borders, I felt that I have been very lucky to be able to help others and do something worthwhile. Now I must thi nk about tomorrow. We hope the clinic will be open and 1 won’t have any time to write my diary. This experience makes me appreciate all the things I have and gives me the chance to see things from another angle. I know I can’t change the whole world, but I’m proud that I can help here and there, and make a difference to people’s lives.
1. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph?
A．To introduce the island. B．To express an opinion.
C．To highlight the situation. D．To describe local life.
2. What problem did the author and her colleagues face when arriving at the island?
A．They didn’t have enough food.
B．They found the hospital gone.
C．They were in need of financial support.
D．They got infected due to the polluted water.
3. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?
A．The author found it important to offer sympathy to those in need.
B．The author was not only a nurse but also worked as an interpreter.
C．People on the island were quite talkative and many enjoyed chatting.
D．There was no language barrier between the medical workers and the residents.
4. What can we learn about Doctors without Borders?
A．It is horrible and adventurous. B．It is meaningful and helpful.
C．It requires nothing but courage. D．It promises better job opportunities.
4. It is a commonly held belief that smiling takes years off your appearance by conveying a youthful joie de vive (生活之乐). Yet a study has found that smiling actually makes people look older, unless they are over 60, in which case the wrinkles have set in and it makes little difference.
Researchers showed participants hundreds of photographs of faces of people aged between 20 and 80, either smiling or with a neutral expression, and were asked to estimate their age. The faces of younger people in their twenties and thir ties were “strongly” and “reliably” identified as looking older when they were smiling. However, smiling had little or no effect on the perceived age of those over the age of 60.
The study found that for middle-aged people between the ages of 40 and 60, gender played a role in whether smiling altered the perceived age. Men in this age category appeared older when they smiled but for their female counterparts, smiling had no effect.
Researchers also suggested that it could be down to the gender differences in lifestyle and skin care that could affect facial wrinkling. Mr. Goodale, the lead researcher, said: “Not only do middle-aged men have more wrinkles than middle-aged women — the wrinkles around the eyes increases more when middle-aged men smile than it does when middle-aged women smile.”
The study follows a similar one undertaken in 2018 which also disproved the theory that smiling can take years off your appearance. The same scientists published a paper saying that the belief “well-rooted in media” was “a complete misconception”. They said the misplaced belief was causing social media users to post ageing photos of themselves online.
1. According to the passage, what is commonly believed about smiling?
A．Smiling can fill people with energy. B．Smiling is beneficial to our health.
C．Smiling quickens the ageing process. D．Smiling can make one appear younger. 2. The following factors are responsible for face wrinkling except ________.
A．Lifestyle B．skin care C．profession D．gender
3. Which of the following will the researchers probably agree with?
A．For the middle-aged, smiling affects males more than females.
B．For those of advanced age, smiling makes them look younger.
C．To avoid looking old, you’d better not smile when taking photos.
D．Smiling has the same effect on both young adults and the elderly.
4. What is the text type?
A．A medical leaflet. B．A science report. C．An encyclopedia. D．A biology
textbook.
5. The tomato is definitely one of the most popular of all home grown vegetables and for good reason. 1 They can be grown in garden beds, grow bags, potted vegetable gardens or even hanging
baskets. Though buying commercially grown plants from a garden center or online is quite handy, some just prefer growing tomatoes the other way.
2 The trick is to start your seed raising early either in a green house or indoors,especially in colder climates.
SOW your seeds about four weeks before the last expected frost. Fill some seed trays or small pots with a good quality potting soil. 3 Actually even some soil from the garden will work. After anywhere from 3-15 days you should start to see little shoots sprouting out of the soil.
TRANSPLANT your seedlings once two true leaves have formed. Gently take out your seedling and plant it into the new pot but plant it up to just below its first leaves. 4
WATER your plants frequently enough when required to try and keep the soil evenly moist.
FEED your tomato plants with a good quality tomato feed every 10-14 days. 5
HARVEST your tomatoes when they are fully ripened on the vine and enjoy what your hard work has provided you with.
6. Whether or not we care to admit it, we’re all familiar with procrastination:waiting until the last minute to catch up with pressing tasks. The antidote (矫正方法) — while easier said than done — is ________ to start on your assignments sooner. But in your pursuit of ________procrastination, is it possible to go too far?
David Rosenbaum, a professor of psychology at the University of California, Riverside, certainly thinks so. His research ________ on the dangers of “precrastination”, the ________ to rush too quickly into tasks.
As ________ to a procrastinator, who might leave an inbox full of emails untouched until the next day, a precrastinator would read and ________ to each of them first thing in the morning. This can mean reducing a lot of amount of the precious energy they might need for a more urgent ________ later on.
So why do people precrastinate? Rosenbaum says that for most, it’s tough to ________ reaching for low-hanging fruit. When you complete simple short-term tasks, you have one fewer thing to think about —“I can wrap this up in five minutes. Why not ________ it now?”
The real ________ of precrastination comes when, in your rush to finish, you encounter the naturally higher chance of doing your work incompletely or inaccurately. In the ________ of emails, sometimes waiting to respond can show respect for ________ thought over expediency (权宜之计).
Of course, precrastination is not without its benefits, but it’s ________ to do so only when it makes sense. Chronic precrastinators must also realise that it’s OK to set unimportant t hings aside, because they will not require huge mental ________ later in the day, Rosenbaum says. Besides, it should be agreed in our society that it’s OK to be allowed to ________.

I eventually managed to persuade my parents to buy me a new football shirt for the school matches. My old shirt had worn out and made me depressed every time I put it on. But now I had a brand new shirt! I was so excited. I decided to wear it today for the first time during a kick about in our street. I wish I hadn’t! As soon as we had been playing for ten minutes, the shirt sleeve ripped when I made a turn.
I didn’t pay much attention to it at first. “I’ll sew it back together after the match”, I th ought. But then I noticed that actually the whole sleeve was torn. Only a professional can mend it now. I couldn’t tell my mum and dad that my new football shirt was ruined. They would feel sad and they might not allow me to play football any longer. As I walked home, feeling totally at a loss what to do, I was astonished to suddenly come across a shop sign “All kinds of repairs and services!”
I went inside immediately. A man with white bushy hair said “Welcome!” I looked around the shop.
I saw an iron, bro ken toys and a broken chair. “I guess this is the wrong place. What I really need is
a tailor’s”, I thought to myself. But as I started to leave, I noticed a photo of a football team next to the sewing machine. I couldn’t make out which team it was. “Maybe the owner also liked playing football.” Thinking of this, I decided to have a try: “Excuse me, this tear needs repairing. I need it to take part in the school match.”

She soon finds love in an unexpected place. How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003) As a journalist,Andie (Hudson)in the film is assigned a special task where she has to write about her experience trying to make a man fall in love with her,followed by making him want to break up with her. The assignment goes to unexpected places when Ben(McConaughey)enters the picture. The Imitation Game(2014) Strange things happen when people fall in love with machines;it's actually happening with today’s technology. In“The Imitation Game”,which is set in the 1940s,tells the true story of Alan Turing and his team to break the German secret codes to win World War II. Although the film is largely about code breaking efforts,it also delivers on some love,both machine,and human.

It's a touching adventure with plenty of love along the way. 1. What do we do with Netflix A. To find friends. B. To see films. C. To surf the Internet. D. To shop online. 2.

The single most important thing you need to live is water. If you’re resourceful and know where to look, you can find or collect good drinking water in just about any environment on earth. Here are four top tips: Find a muddy area Dig a hole about a foot deep and one foot in diameter(直径) and wait. You may be surprised to find that the hole is soon filled with water, which will be muddy, but straining it through some cloth will clean it up, and it will get you by in the short term. It’s crucial to remember that any time you drink found water withou t purifying it, you’re taking a risk. Look for plants In a desert, look for where plants are growing, as they need water. Try to get up high and look downwards, as water is often found in low shaded areas. Desalinate seawater On an island you’re surrounded by undrinkable water. You can boil it and capture the steam in a cloth. When it’s soaking wet, you can wring out pure water. Cut the ice If you are in Arctic, eating snow doesn’t actually get you much water. And melting ice needs lots of fuel. One good way to get water is cutting through a frozen lake or river surface. Warning: Beware of bad water Never drink from water that has dead animals or animal remains in it. The water probably has lots of minerals in it and has become toxic. You have the same problem with seawater—it’s too salty to be healthy to drink. Sadly, birds and animals can sometimes drink water that’s unsafe for people, so you can’t ignore other clues if they’re drinking water that looks bad. 1. How do people get water in the muddy area?
