    A new kind of Sports shoes have been worked out in the UK recently. They can work out whether their owner has done enough exercise to allow time in front of the television.

    The shoes－named Square Eyes－have an electronic sensor and a small computer chip (芯片) to record how many steps the wearer has taken in a day.A wireless transmitter(无线传导器) passes the information to a receiver connected to a television, and this decides how much evening viewing time the wearer can have, depended on the day’s efforts.

    The idea was encouraged by a wish to fight against overweight among British teenagers, says Gillian Swan, who developed Square Eyes. “We considered the problems and childhood overweight really stood out.” She says, “And I wanted to work out that with my idea.”

    Once a child has used up their daily allowance(许可) got through exercise, the television itself turns off. And further time in front of the TV can only be got through more steps.

    Swan thought over how exercise should change to television time.Health experts suggest that a child take 12,000 steps each day and watch no more than two hours of television.So, every 100 steps recorded by the Square Eyes shoes means one minute of TV time.

    Other similar sports shoes normally keep count of steps by measuring(测量) sudden movement. Swan says people may easily get recording steps through shaking. But her shoes have been built to be harder for lazy teenagers to cheat. “It is possible, but it would be a lot of effort，” she says. “That was one of my main invention considerations.”

    (　　)61.According to Swan，the purpose of her sports shoes is to________.

    A. keep children away from the TV　　　

    B. deal with overweight among teenagers

    C. keep a record of the steps of the wearer　

    D. prevent children from being cheated by TV programs

    (　　)62.Which of the following is TRUE of Square Eyes shoes?

    A. They control a child’s daily exercises.

    B. They record all the information of the receiver.

    C. They control a child’s evening TV viewing time.

    D. They have caused the problem of watching TV too much.

    (　　)63.Compared with other similar products, Swan’s sports shoes ________ .

    A. make it hard for lazy teenagers to cheat

    B. count the wearer’s steps through shaking

    C. record the sudden movement of the wearer

    D. send teenagers’ health information to the receiver

    (　　)64.Health experts suggest that a child should take________ .

    A. 12,000 steps each day

    B. watch more than two hours of television.

    C. 100 steps one minute

    D. keep count of steps by measuring sudden movement

    (　　)65.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

    A. Smart Shoes Stop Childhood Overweight

    B. Smart Shoes Promise More Exercise

    C. Smart Shoes Measure Time of Exercise

    D. Smart Shoes Decide on Television Time

      We use the Internet for many things: business, shopping, writing letters, talking to people, finding information and so on. In recent years a new kind of English has grown on the Internet. There’s no real word for it yet, so we’ll call it e-talk. People don’t like typing too much. To save time, they turn phrases into a few letters called acronyms. Acronyms are often used in chat rooms. Some of them are
    BTW (by the way)        BRB (be right back)
    LOL (laughing out loud)    IMO (in my opinion)
    People also use many abbreviations(缩写). They are shortened forms of words. Some common abbreviations are:
    Info(information)       puter (computer)
    Pie(picture)           sec (second)
    We usually don’t see people when we communicate on the Net, so people have new ways to show feelings. Most people use their keywords to draw “feeling”, such as:
    :-)(happy)    :-p(joking)   :-( (sad)    :-0 (surprised)
    These days, many forums(论坛) have picture feelings. For example,

    (sad)      (happy)
    There are even whole new words, like“newbie’s”(someone who is new on a chat board or forum).
    It takes time for people to get used to e-talk. Also, different groups on the Net have their own special ways of communicating. Newbie’s have to ask other people what they mean. As the Internet grows, e-talk will continue to grow and change.
    【小题1】What does the underlined word “acronyms” mean?

    A．网友B．聊天室C．首字母缩写词D．关键词
    【小题2】Why do people type acronyms?
    A．To show their feelings.
    B．Because people can type them quickly.
    C．In this way newbie’s won’t understand them.
    D．To make people use Internet
    【小题3】What does “BTW, my puter is not working well. :- ( ” mean ?
    A．The person is angry at somebody.
    B．The person is happy about getting a new computer
    C．The person is sad that his computer is having problems.
    D．The person is joking that his computer is having problems.
    【小题4】E-talk will probably _______.
    A．keep changing
    B．be easy by people on the telephone
    C．be used by people on the telephone
    D．make life easier
    【小题5】What’s the best title for this passage?
    A．E-talk LanguageB．Picture Feelings
    C．How to Use AbbreviationsD．use the Internet

    Three kids have been learning chemistry for only a few months. But they have already begun to challenge (挑战) a world famous scientist!

       Li Weichi, Huang Runling, and Xiao Yan are from Zhongshan Huaqiao Middle School in Guangdong. They have just found a red cabbage that could be a new kind of acid-base indicator (酸碱指示剂). They want it to take the place of litmus (石蕊) paper.

    "We've learnt to think of and ask questions about life by ourselves," said Li, "We work well with each other."

       British scientist Robert Boyle discovered the use of litmus paper over 300 years ago. Now it is used widely in experiments all over the world.

       But when the kids did some experiments in class last winter, they saw that the litmus paper didn’t turn very blue with base matter. It's hard to get a clear result.

      Will there be a better indicator than litmus paper? The three kids decided to try and find out!

        How? They went to collect over 40 plants in parks, gardens and markets. Then they ground (研磨) leaves, flowers and stems (茎) to get the pigments (色素) from them.

       The kids mixed pigments with acid and base. They spent months watching carefully to see which paper showed the best colour change. They decided it was the litmus paper!

    "It's our first scientific journey, Huang said, "But it makes me want to try harder."

    1. Whom did the three kids want to challenge?

    A. Their chemistry teacher.     B. Their headmaster.

    C. Robert Boyle              D. Thomas Edison
