16、parks.BUp-to-date news about Walt Disney World.CTourists comments on restaurants of Universal Orlando.DNewly-opened attractions of theme parks.BLast October I was on a diving holiday in the Philippines with seven other advanced divers. I dived off the boat slowly sinking to about 20m.After nearly 45

17、 minutes, the sound of my breathing was drowned out by a low rumble（隆隆响）like an engine and I felt deep powerful vibrations(震动) as if a big boat with a propeller was passing overhead. The dive instructors eyes were wide with confusion too. We both swam next to each other staying close to the side of

18、the reef(礁石). The situation felt sinister（灾难性的）.Then we were enveloped by clouds of white sand that mushmoomed up around us. Could it be a giant turtle(海龟) racing past us? They are normally slow movers so this was very weird behavior. The vibration became so intense that I could feel it in my bones

19、and then the sound turned into a deafening roar. Suddenly, a few meters below us, breaks began forming and the sand was sucked down. Thats when I got what it was. The noise was the sound of the earth splintering open and grinding against itself.The instructor and I held hands and looked into each ot

20、hers eyes. I felt comforted by his presence. I was numb(麻木的) for terror but clear-headed. My body went on high alert, ready to react. But I have no power over whatever this is.The only option is to stay very still and let it do whatever its going to do. It took enormous willpower to resist the urge

21、to swim to the surface, which is not sensible as situation on the surface at that time was ambiguous with potential threats pending. Soon we saw other divers.The sound and vibration lasted only two or three minutes and when they stopped I heard the swoosh of sand falling over the seabed. We all held

22、 hands before resurfacing to avoid decompression sickness, which can be fatal. When up, it was a huge relief to see all the divers and we all shared incredulous looks before pulling out our breathing tools and shouting, ”What was that?”Back on the boat, we rushed to check the news and discovered we

23、had witnessed a huge earthquake, measuring 7.2 on the Richter scale. It released more energy than 30 Hiroshima bombs, though it seemed that we were not at the epicenter(震中). I was high and felt lucky surprisingly not because of my recent survival miracle, but to have experienced nature at its most s

25、ise to the surface before the vibration stopped?ABecause the instructor gestured him not to rise.BBecause he was numb in body.CBecause he could sense the unclear water situation.DBecause he tried to avoid unexpected danger above.26Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?AA

26、t the beginning of the event, a big boat passed by causing big vibration.BAll the divers used the reef as the protection against the violent vibration.CI felt relieved as the instructor was experienced in handling situations like this.DPowerless to fight nature, I was tame when under the water.27Why

27、 did the author feel fortunate on the boat?ABecause he was not at the epicenter of the earthquake.BBecause he finally survived a huge earthquake.CBecause he could witness a rare natural phenomenon.DBecause he didnt suffer from decompression sickness.CIn the world of digital health, Silicon Valley-ba

28、sed Mindstrong stands out. It has a remarkable team and tens of millions of funding. It also has a fascinating idea-its app, based on mental functioning research, can help detect troubling mental health patterns by collecting data on persons smartphone usage-how quickly they type, for instance.The c

29、ompanys app collects information about how people are typing and runs it through a machine learning algorithm (计算程序) to determine which data can predict their emotional state. The idea is to use that data to establish a “normal” pattern-so it can be compared with someones typing habits on any given

30、day. If the habits change, slower or more anxious than normal, the app can warn a health care provider.The promise of this technology has made Mindstrong incredibly popular since it was launched last year; already more than a dozen counties in California have agreed to apply the companys app to pati

31、ents. Does the app live up to its promise? Theres no way to tell. Almost no one outside the company has any idea whether it works, leading some experts to wonder if the technology is ready for the real world. “I wouldnt waste all that time and money in the wild until they get sure that some of those

32、 things are as specific as they hope they are,” said Rosalind Picard, a researcher at MIT Media Lab, who is familiar with Mindstrongs work.“It has passed the gold-standard clinical tests for depression and anxiety,” said Dr. Paul Dagum, the companys founder. “Were confident, and were already seeing

33、some really exciting results.” Mindstrong officials said that among their most encouraging results is that its app can even predict how a person will feel next week, kind of like a weather app for your mood. “For a clinician or someone looking after a patient, they know that it could be very, very p

34、owerful,” Dagum said.28What can Mindstrongs app do?AImprove its users mental health. BGet its users to type more quickly.CDiscover its users mental state. DWork out the causes of its users trouble.29What is the second paragraph mainly about?AThe ways of collecting data. BThe apps working principle.C

35、The analysis of typing habits. DThe development of the app.30What is Rosalind Picards attitude towards the app?AUncaring.BPositive.CSkeptical.DDefensive.31What can we infer about Dagums opinion on the app?AThe app has a powerful effect on anxiety.BCare providers could be advocates of the app.CThe ap

36、p can also predict weather conditions.DDoctors benefit more from the app than their patients.DHistory is full of tales of great ideas taking shape in sleeping minds. Paul McCartney said that he awoke with the tune of Yesterday in his head, and Robert Louis Stevenson said that the idea for The Strang

37、e Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde came to him in a dream.Scientists believe that the mind at night puts together bits of information in creative ways. Throughout the day your brain rarely gets a chance to stop and think. It constantly responds to a stream of challenges, from writing a report for a wo

38、rk deadline to remembering where you left your car keys and figuring out what to buy for dinner.“Think of your brain like a web, says Russell Foster, Professor of Neuroscience at Oxford University. During the day the web is very tight, so you can only put information in a certain number of places. D

39、uring sleep the web expands, and with the luxury of time, those bits of information can be put into lots of different places and make new associations.He adds that this process may help to foster the formation of new ideas. This bringing together of seemingly unrelated bits of information is vital t

40、o helping the brain think itself out of problems,” says Russell Foster.Sleep seems to allow your mind to make non-obvious connections. It puts all the information from the day into a big biological theatre and forces the mind to speak to people at the back of the theatre, who you may not think you h

41、ave any connection with. This is the basis of creativity-connecting ideas, events and memories that wouldnt normally fit together.By placing volunteers into brain scanners and sending them to sleep, scientists have seen that the areas associated with emotion go into overdrive, especially while dream

42、ing, while the areas that are responsible for logic (逻辑)are switched off. This not only explains why dreams are unbelievably random-you can be talking to a colleague one minute and the next minute sitting in your old school classroom dressed in your nightclothesbut also explains how the brain can pu

43、t together different information.32In what way are the mind at night and the mind during the day different?AThe ways to receive information. BThe ways to provide information.CThe ways to process information. DThe ways to exchange information.33According to Russell Foster, what may bring out creativi

But it will make you both feel good. It also can make it easier to interact the next time, and the time after th

47、at.Find a safe place to make connections. If going to the dancing party makes you feel like you just dont belong, try joining a special-interest group. 37 Just because you feel left out in one group doesnt mean youll feel like an outsider in every other one. Look for a group that allows you to feel

48、comfortable gradually.Find other ways of making connections. Lonely people hunger for friendship. Sometimes feeling accepted and liked comes more easily when you do something for others rather than waiting for them to make you feel better. 38 Help a child in rending. Take notes for a disabled classm

49、ate. You might be surprised at the connections you make.39 Loneliness is an absence of quality friendship, not of a particular quantity of friends. Thats why its important to know how to select a friend.You get what you expect, so expect the best. If you expect others to be friendly, you will behave

50、 in proper ways that encourage people to be friendlier to you. 40 But starting the first step of positive expectations can make all the difference.AChoose the right people.BLoneliness wont last long.CSo consider becoming a volunteer.DReach out to others but start small.E.
