A
Qu Finhan, who used to study in Beijing No. 2 Middle School, went to study at the 122-year-old Hotchkiss School in Connecticut last September. He'd like to share his highs and lows with his peers (同龄人) in China who arc considering studying abroad.
When I got Hotchkiss' offer last March, I was overjoyed. I knew that I didn't have to choose between science and liberal arts. I want to be good at both, because I love the beauty of poetry and drama, I enjoy exploring the whys and ifs of history and I'm attracted by the depth and width of chemistry and biology. 'This was the main reason I chose to study in the US.
Hotchkiss sits between two lakes in the northwest Connecticut, with the nearest town miles away. There is no mobile phone signal on most of the campus and the Internet is turned off at midnight. My American peers work just as hard as Chinese high school students, but the school offers many exciting after-class activities: the Fairfield Farm, which provides organically-grown food for the school dining hall, is one.
The Hotchkiss farm was once part of a land donated by King George III of Britain. Like in other parts of New England, here the Puritans (清教徒) had to dig piles of rocks out of the land before turning it into fields available for farming. The most valuable lessons I learned from working on the farm were about Puritans' beliefs, which formed the foundation of the United States: respect for hard work; encourage sweating in snow. Through farm work, I also harvested the spirit of teamwork, understanding biological and ecological issues, and broadly, the country and its people.
At Hotchkiss, farming is listed together with sports as an after-class choice. If，like me, you are not an athletic person, and you don' t want to choose sports such as football, golf or tennis, farm work is less demanding and a lot of fun, too. After all, the Hotchkiss philosophy(哲学) is: be yourself and follow your heart. 56. Qu Enshan chose to study in US mainly because he
A. preferred the environment of Hotchkiss School B. expected to study and work on the Fairfield Farm
C. wanted to seek a balanced development of his subjects D. loved the exciting after-class activities in Hotchkiss School 57. Which of the following is TRUE about Hotchkiss School?
A. It is located between two lakes in the center of Connecticut.
B. It was founded by King George III of Britain over 100 years ago. C. Students there don't have access to mobile phones and the Internet. D. Students there work hard while enjoying various after-class activities. 58. According to the passage. Puritan's beliefs highlight
A. hard work B. problem-solving ability C. teamwork spirit D. understanding people 59. What does Qu Enshan value most about Hotchkiss School?
A. Its environment. B. Its teachers. C. Its students. D. Its philosophy.
B
J. K. Bowling probably isn' t going to write any more Harry Potter books. that doesn't mean there won' t be any more. It just means they won't be written by J. K. Bowling. Instead, they'll be written by people like Rachelinc Maltese, a fan of Harry Potter. Sometimes she writes stories about Harry and the other characters from the Potterverse and posts them online for free.
Maltese is a writer of fan fiction: stories and novel that make use of the characters and settings from other people's professional creative work. The writers don't do it for money. They write it and put it up online just for the satisfaction.
Right now fan fiction is still dark matter culturally: it's largely invisible to the mainstream, but at the same time, it's unbelievably massive. Fan fiction appeared earlier than the Internet, but the Web has made it much easier to talk and be heard. There' a fan fiction based on books, movies, TV shows, video games, plays, musicals, rock bands, board games and even the Bible. In most cases, the quantity of fan fiction inspired by a given work is much larger than the work itself; in some cases, the quality is higher, too.
Nobody makes money from fan fiction, but whether anybody loses money on fan fiction. is a separate question. Rowling has given Harry Potter her blessing. Other writers consider it a violation(侵犯) of their copyrights, and more, of their emotional claim to their own creations. They feel as if their characters had been kidnapped(绑架) by strangers.
You can see both sides of the issue. Do characters belong to the person who created them? Or to the fans who love them so deeply that they spend much time laboring to lengthen their lives, for five? This may seem unimportant in the first place, but it actually has huge influence on our culture and challenges just about everything we thought about art and creativity: Is art about making up new things or about transforming the raw material that's out there?
60. From this passage, we learn that Racheline Maltese is ____
A. J. K. Rowling's publisher B. a writer of fan fiction
C. a character from the Potterverse D. an actress in Harry Potter series 61. Which of the following about fan fiction is TRUE according to the passage? A. It is usually larger in quantity and better in quality than the original work. B. It is still not accepted by the mainstream though its quantity is large. C. It is mainly inspired by the best-selling books of the time. D. It came with the appearance of the Internet. 62. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Opinions on fan fiction are divided among writers of the original works. B. Characters of a work are considered to belong to both its writer and fans. C. Most writers feel annoyed when their characters are rewritten by others. D. Fan faction, writers kidnapped some strangers in order to finish their work. 63. The underlined word \"their\" in the last paragraph refers to
A. the fans' B. the works' C. the writers' D. the characters' 64. What's the author's attitude towards fan fiction?
A. Supportive. B. Critical. C. Objective. D. Doubtful.

General Electric uses detection and diagnostic (诊断) tools to proactively(主动地) identify faults in plane engines and repair planes efficiently. Those tools can also help facility (设备) managers to see energy-related problems.
The smart building analytics market is predicted to grow from $5.5 billion in 2012 to more than$18 billion in 2017, as more buildings both start using analytics and move to advanced technologies.
The starting point for most will be reporting dashboards(仪表盘), allowing facility managers to view building data. The next add-on is alarming capabilities, including those fault detection and diagnostics systems GE uses. Lastly are the proactive analytics, which bring in data from inside a building such as the number of rooms that are lived in, along with outside data such as weather conditions, to advise what managers should do or even take actions on their own.
These tools vary in their abilities. For example, if a piece of equipment is requiring both heating and cooling simultaneously, a fault is likely involved, said Scott Herman, product development director for Johnson Controls. Using applications within a system such as Johnson Controls' Panoptix, a facility manager could create a rule that identifies any heating and cooling at the same time as a fault and take action when that fault comes up. Beyond simple rules, Herman said that analytics can go so far as to learn how a piece of equipment or building behaves, and identify faults or problems.
In the first 120 days of using a Johnson Controls' application, Western Kentucky University identified a number of faults thht, once handled, allowed it to create more comfortable learning environments and recover its investment in less than six months, Herman said.
In addition, analytics can model possibilities. For example, if a facility mares wanted to pre-cool buildings, he could model out how much energy or money would be saved by cooling the building early in the day; then turning off coolers during peak(高峰)energy load times. Along with modeling energy use, analytic* could also predict how those changes would affect tenants' (房客) comfort levels.
68. One of the functions of the proactive analytics is to A. report building data to the tenants
B. provide tenants with the weather conditions C. warn the manager of the faults of the building
D. collect data for managers and even act by themselves
69. The underlined word \"simultaneously\" in Paragraph 4 probably means \" \" A. at the same time B. in the same' way
C. at the same speed D. in the same circumstances 70. The example of Western Kentucky University suggests that A. there arc a let of faults in its heating and cooling system B. the effect of the system can only last for less than six months C. smart analytics may be expensive but it's worth the money
D. the system helps the university to create a better investment environment 71. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. How General Electric detects faults in airplane engines B. How to make buildings smarter than their managers C. Tote smart building analytics market is booming rapidly
D. West Kentucky University's tips on reducing carbon footprint

When Danny Bowman was at school, he spent 10 hours a day taking more than 200 selfies(自拍) trying to find the perfect image. But his addiction, which began at the age of 15, caused him to drop out of school and lose almost 12.7kg in weight. He would take 10 photos of himself before he washed and would slip out of class three times every hour. At 16, he dropped out of school so he could focus on his addiction, and his diet began to get worse. He did not leave his house in Newcastle for six months, and when he failed to take the perfect shot, he tried to kill himself by taking drugs. His mother, Penny, managed to save him, but he was forced to seek help after his addiction had gradually become out of control.
The 19-year-old, believed to be Britain's fine selfie addict, has now had therapy(疗法) to treat his technology addiction, and Body dysmorphie disorder - an over anxiety about personal appearance. He has not taken a picture of himself in seven months, and has realised that achieving perfection is impossible. He told the Sunday Mirror: \" I was constantly in search of taking the perfect selfie and when I realised I couldn't I wanted to die. I lost my friends, my education, my health and almost my life. \" \"The only thing I cared about was having my phone with me so I could satisfy the urge to capture a picture of myself at any time of the day. \" He would look at photos of his \"idol\" (偶像) Leonardo Di Capri* and would then replicate his poses(姿势) . Danny's dream was to become a male model.
The selfie craze has grown in past five years, with stars, politicians and even Pope (教皇) Francis posting involved in the sensation. But one psychologist at a clinic where Danny was treated said the addiction with taking selfies has now become a mental illness.
Now determined to raise awareness of the anxiety disorder, Danny is working with Fixers – a national charity helping young people \"to 'fix' the issues that matter to them\". He said their help has kept him alive and called on others to seek help before they end up in hospital.
72. Why did Danny Bowman stay in his house in Newcastle for six months? A. To self-study his school subjects. B. To take a perfect photo of himself.
C. To seek a doctor's help with his addiction. D. To deal with his weight problem.
73. The underlined word \"replicate\" in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by \" A. resemble B. control C. practise D. imitate 74. What can we learn about Danny Bowman from the passage?
A. He was Britain's first teenager to kill himself for his appearance. B. He dropped out of school realising that there was no perfect image. C. He is completely not alone in being crazy about taking selfics. D. He is working with a charity to help teenagers realise their dreams. 75. Danny Bowman may now agree that
A. working with charity brings him a new life
B. taking selfies does no good to young people's health C. teenagers shouldn't dream of becoming a model or star D. personal appearance plays a great role in people's success
