Swedish Archaeologists Make New Discoveries
Archaeologists have begun exploring an unknown ancient city at a village called Vlochos, five hours north of Athens. The Archaeological __31__are scattered on and around the Strongilovuni hill on the great Thessalian plains and can be traced to several historical periods.
―What used to be considered remains of some __32____settlement can now be upgraded to remains of a city higher significance than ___33___thought,‖ says Robin Ronnland, PhD student in Classical Archaeology and Ancient History at the university of Gothenburg and leader of the firework.
―We came across the site which has never been explored before in connection with another project last year and realized the great __34____right away.‖
Working together with the Swedish Institute at Athens and the local archaeological service in Karditsa, the Vlochos Archaeological Project (VLAP) was started with an aim to explore the remains. The project‘s research team completed the first field season during two weeks in September 2016.
Ronnlund says that the hill is hiding many __35___. Remains of towers, walls and city gates can be found on the mountaintop and slopes, but __36__anything is visible on the ground below. The ambition is to avoid digging and instead use __37__such as ground-penetrating radar. This will enable the team to leave the site in the same __38__as it was in when they arrived. The success of this method is __39___from the results of the first field season.
―We found a town square and a street network that indicate that we are dealing with quite a large city . The area inside the city wall measured over 40 hectares. We also found ancient pottery and coins that can help to __40___the city. Our oldest finds are from around 500 BC, but the city seems to have flourished mainly from the fourth to the third century BC before it was abandoned for some reason, maybe in connection with the Roman conquest of the area.
Ronnlund believes that the Swedish-Greek project can provide important clues as to what happened during this violent period in Greek history.

(A) The Right Thing
―Hi, Mrs. Grady,‖ said Mark when their neighbor opened her door. ―Would you like us to shovel your sidewalk and driveway?‖ Shoveling was Jamie‘s idea, a way to earn enough money for the new Ocean Kingdom video game that came out the next day.
Mrs. Grady was happy, ―That would be wonderful, boys. I think the job is getting to be too much for me.‖
―It will cost 10 dollars,‖ Jamie said .‖ If that‘s OK,‖ Mark added.
―Oh dear,‖ Mrs. Grady said disappointedly, ―I haven‘t been able to get to the bank. I can offer homemade cookies, but I realize that‘s not what you had in mind.‖
Mark was going to say that Mrs. Grady could pay them another time, but Jamie cut him off. ―We‘ll come back later.‖
Mrs. Grady doesn‘t look like the person who‘d come to his rescue last summer when Mr. Dunn‘s collie, Goldie had just wanted to play, but Mark didn‘t feel comfortable around big dogs. He wanted to call for help, but his tongue seemed locked behind his teeth. Then Mrs. Grady‘s front door had flown open. She must have seen him from across the street. ―Hold on, Mark. I‘m coming!‖ ―Goldie!‖ she‘d called. As soon as Goldie had turned her head, Mrs. Grady had slipped between Mark and the dog. She wasn‘t much taller than Mark, but she‘d stood firm as a rock in front of him. ―Goldie, go home!‖ Then she‘d swept her broom to hurry the dog along. ―Get!‖ Goldie had obeyed.
When Mark showed thanks to Mrs.Grady, Mrs. Grady laughed. ―It was nothing. Good neighbors watch out for each other, don‘t they?‖
And now Mrs. Grady needed Mark as much as he‘d needed her last summer. He smiled and waved at Mrs. Grady, then thrust his shovel deep into the snow.
―Hey!‖ Jamie shouted. ―What are you doing?‖ Mark couldn‘t explain about Goldie and watching out for neighbors. ―I like Mrs. Grady‘s cookies,‖ he said.
56. Why did Jamie and Mark plan to clear the snow for Mrs .Grany at first? A. To help the lady B. To earn pocket money C. To do volunteer work D. To visit New Kingdom
57. Mrs. Grady couldn‘t pay them most probably because ________. A. she didn‘t have enough cash B. she couldn‘t find the bank C. she thought it was worthless D. she couldn‘t afford it
58. According to the story, which of the following word can not be used to describe Mrs.Grady? A. Positive B. Helpful C. Brave D. Hopeful 59. Which of the following proverb can best summarize the story ?
A. A penny saved is a penny earned B. Kindness is repaid with kindness C. A clear conscience D. Actions speak louder than work

Moving My Curfew
For some time now, I have had an 8:00 p.m. curfew — the time by which I have to be at home, even on weekends. When I was younger, I didn‘t really complain. But now I have reached an age when this curfew is no longer suitable. For several reasons, it is clearly time to move my curfew to 10:00 p.m. on weekends.
First of all, I ‘m soon going to be an adult, like all teenagers, I need practice handling the greater freedom that goes along with being an adult. When teenagers don‘t get practice handling freedom, they often make many serious mistakes. For example, some teenagers go away to college and suddenly they don‘t know how to handle it, and they get into trouble. I believe it is better to increase freedom gradually. That way the teenager learners how to handle freedom responsibly. I believe I could handle a later curfew without making serious mistakes in judgment.
A later curfew is also important to me because I‘m an active student. As you know, I am often on the committee in charge of running extra-curricular activities. Because of my present curfew, I have to finish school activities over an hour before they are over. Others students must take over for me when I leave. A 10:00 curfew would allow me to stay until the end of school functions and give me enough time to get home without rushing.
Finally, I am a teenager who can be trusted to handle a 10:00 p.m. curfew. I know that many teenagers cannot handle much responsibility. However, I am clearly not that kind of teenager. I have proven myself to be a very responsible person. For example, I have never been in serious trouble, either at school or in the company. I also hold a part-time job and still manage to maintain a ―B‖ average in school. In other words, I am a person who uses my time wisely, meets responsibilities and stays out of trouble.

(A)
Born in 1823 in Wales, Alfred Russel Wallace was a man of modest means, but he had a passion for nature and he chose to follow it. He started out collecting insects as a hobby, but eventually his longing for adventure led him to explore the world.
Luckily for Wallace, Victorian Britain was discovering an interest in weird and wonderful insets, so the demand from museums and private collections for these bests was growing. Wallace was able to make a living doing what he loved: collecting beetles and other insects.
But his first trip of exploring the world ended in disaster. Wallace proceeded to the Amazon in South America. Its giant forests promised a wealth of new species, sure to put him on the scientific map. The trip took 6 weeks and involved every mode of transport in existence at the time. After four years Wallace set off for home, but his boat caught fire in the middle of the Atlantic. Everyone survived, but Wallace had to watch in despair as his samples went up in flames — including live animals he was bringing home that were trying to jump free of the flames. But he did not let it stop him.
In 1854, Wallace set off on another adventure, this time to the Malay Archipelago. Wallace found himself humbled by the new and exciting things he saw. He later recalled: ―As I lie listening to these interesting sounds, I think how many besides myself have longed to see with their own eyes the many wonderful and beautiful things which I am daily encountering.‖
In 1858, Wallace wrote what became known as the ―Ternate essay‖: a piece of writing that was to change our understanding of life forever. In his essay, Wallace argued that a species would only turn into another species if it was struggling for existence. Henry W. Bates was one of many scientists delighted by the idea of evolution by natural selection. In a letter to Wallace, he wrote: ―The idea is like truth itself, so simple and obvious that those who read and understand it will be stuck by its simplicity; and yet it is perfectly original.‖ 56. __________finally caused Wallace to explore the world ?
A. His strong affection for nature B. His life-long devotion to beasts C. His deep love for adventure D. Increasing demand for insects 57. Which of the following is True about Wallace‘s first trip?
A. It took him six weeks to explore the Amazon with all kinds of transportation. B. He made a scientific study of a fairly limited number of insects. C. The fire cost him his four years‘ collection of animals. D. His passion cooled after the disaster. 58. Wallace felt _________on the Malay Archipelago. A. fearless B. lucky C. challenged D. risky 59. Wallace‘s idea on evolution of natural selection ___________. A. made no sense at that time B. built up a new concept of life C. was too simple to be true D. revealed the origin of nature

Probably the most exciting tech development of recent times, virtual reality (VR) has arrived, with sufficient options available to the consumer who‘s searching for an extra amount of high-tech fun. The cheapest way to get a high-end VR experience comes courtesy of Sony. Its
PlayStation VR doesn‘t require a tricked-out PC or expensive phone — it works with the Playstation 4 control board and comes with a few great games in its library. There is some equipment you can purchase to enhance the experience, but if you‘ve already got a PS4 you can enter the world of VR for just $400. Other high –end offerings like the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift, as well as mobile options like Samsung‘s Gear VR, will get your head in the game. Wireless headphones
Combining ease of use with the ability to move wild around your home, gym or workplace, wireless headphones just make sense. And there are plenty of practical options to suit any budget. The Boss QuietComfort 35 wireless headphones are definitely worth a test
drive, though. The full-size, around-ear Bluetooth headphones highlight active noise cancellation and double as a headset for making phone calls. They‘ve earned the Editor‘s Choice award at Cnet.com and can be purchased for less than $400 online. Digital cameras
While your phone is a worthy assistant, there‘s no substitute for a real camera when it comes to taking the perfect picture. And these days you can get quality specifications in a package that‘s almost as small as your smartphone. The shiny design of the Fujifilm X70, $699, makes it the perfect companion, or you could go retro with the Olympus PEN-F

Directions：Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
A. But there‘s no need for embarrassment. B. If you want proof, turn on the sports channel. C. As we grow older, we don‘t abandon this system — we internalize it. D. This so-called inner speech can improve our performance on various tasks. E. Conducting a dialogue with ourselves might turn out to be one of the keys to human creativity. F. Psychologists refer to this as private speech – language that is spoken out loud but directed at the self.
Our Own Best Friend
Talking to yourself may seem a little shameful. If you‘ve ever been overheard criticizing yourself for a foolish mistake or practicing a tricky speech ahead of time，you‘ll have felt the social restriction against communicating with yourself in words. According to the well-known saying, talking to yourself is the first sign of madness.
___67___ Talking to ourselves, whether out loud or silently in our heads, is a valuable tool for thought. Far from being a sign of foolishness, self-talk allows us to plan what we are going to do, manage our activities, regulate our emotions and even create a narrative of our experience.
Take a trip to any preschool and watch a small child playing with her toys. You are very likely to hear her talking to herself: offering herself directions and giving voice to her frustrations. ___68___We do a lot of it when we are young – perhaps one reason for our shyness about continuing with it as adults.
As children, according to the Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky, we use private speech to regulate our actions in the same way that we use public speech to control the behavior of other. ___69___.
Psychological experiments have shown that the distancing effect of our words can give us a valuable perspective on our actions. One recent study suggested that self-talk is most effective when we address ourselves in the second person: as ―you‖ rather than ―I‖.
We internalize the private speech we use as children – but we never entirely put away the out-loud version. ___70___ You‘re sure to see an athlete or two getting themselves ready for a sharp phrase or scolding themselves after a bad shot.
Both kinds of self-talk seem to bring a range of benefits to our thinking. Those words to the self, spoken silently or aloud, are so much more than lazy talk.

Moustache（胡子）for Cash
“Movember”, as the annual event is known, sees men in countries including the UK, US and Australia grow out their facial hair while collecting sponsorship money from friends, family and colleagues, with the money going to cancer charities.
The month of no shaving began unofficially in 2003, when a pair of men from Australia persuaded their family to join them in growing a moustache in order to encourage men to get themselves checked for cancer, which is seen as distasteful by some males. A year later, the group decided to set up the Movember Foundation, asking friends and colleagues to offer donations of money to support their efforts, and raised a massive A$54,000 which was shared between a number of health projects. With thanks most likely a social media, Movember soon went global and the foundation now operates worldwide, having raised over￡440 million since 2004. The effects of the fundraising are wide-reaching, which had made a significant discovery in the treatment of cancer.
The issue of some men being too self-willed to visit their doctor for a checkup, or perhaps being raised in a culture of ―touch it out‖，has led some males to neglect their health, which may mean it could be too late if something potentially deadly did develop. However, Movember is helping to break down the shame of male health by making it more accessible, meaning that men are more likely to visit their doctors. They found a way to appeal to men in a way that other campaigns just don‘t – with a sort of blokey① jokiness.
①blokey：behaving in a way that is supposed to be typical of men, especially men enjoying themselves in a group.
