    Usually, students are not encouraged to run or jump around in the corridor (走廊). However,students in a British grammar school really enjoy running on the corridor tiles (瓷砖) and their teachers even encourage them to do that.
    Why? It is because the corridor was built with special kinetic (动能的) tiles. When students jump on the tiles, electricity will be generated ( 产生). After one year, the electricity generated from the tiles can fully charge 853 mobile phones or power(供电) an electric car to drive seven miles. It’s amazing, isn’t it?
    The corridor tiles are really a brilliant invention. Students can not only play on the corridor,but also help power the lights in their school corridors and other devices ( 设备) in their classrooms. Besides, this is a good way to teach students to be creative. They will be inspired to be scientists, inventors and engineers in the future to find clean energy for all humans.
    The inventor of the magic corridor tiles is Laurence Kemball-Cook. He was once a student in this school. Now, he is CEO of his own company. The corridor tiles are not Laurence’s only invention. He has also invented a special dance floor, which can be used at music festivals. It allows dancers to charge their mobile phones while they are dancing on the dance floor.
    小题1:Why do the students in the passage enjoy running on the corridor tiles?
    A. Because the corridor tiles are expensive.
    B. Because the teachers ask them to do that.
    C. Because the corridor was built with special tiles.

    A. over 800 mobile phones
    B. all the lights of the school
    C. an electric car to drive70 miles
    小题3:The underlined word “inspired” most probably means “ _________”.
    A. encouraged

    Some people have a kind of magic. They will make you comfortable while they are around. You feel at ease while talking to them. How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they'll help people feel relaxed and make friends with them quickly.
    First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says, "At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It's a common question, but it will get things going." From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.
    Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isn't. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what kind of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively. Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the topic of conversation. If someone insists on one topic, it means he's really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to the voice. If the voice sounds bored, then, it's time for you to change the topic.
    Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the moment of saying good-bye. If you're saying it, you may give him a handshake and say, "I've really enjoyed meeting you." If you want to see that person again, don't keep it a secret. Let people know your thoughts.
    小题1:Asking questions might be a quite good and suitable way ________.
    A．for you to make more and more new friends
    B．to begin your business talks
    C．to get things going
    D．for you to make a deep and lasting impression on others
    小题2:After asking somebody a question, it'll be polite of you to ________.
    A．agree with what others say all the time
    B．listen to his reply attentively
    C．wait impatiently for his answer
    D．go on asking him more questions
    小题3:Generally speaking, good talkers are persons who ________.
    A．are not good at making any topic interesting
    B．never talk too much or too little
    C．always speak in a gentle way
    D．know when they should change the topic of the talk
    小题4:If you really want to meet someone again, ________.
    A．you may take him as your lifelong true friend
    B．it seems necessary for you to let him know it
    C．it's proper for you to give him a second handshake
    D．it'll be helpful for you to have further understanding of him

    Can you imagine living in the desert for a whole year, watching the activities of a group of busy ants? Deborah Gordon did exactly that. She finally found out that there were four main groups of workers in the ant team: cleaners, haulers(搬运工), gatherers and security (安全) ants. Each group did their own job to finish the task of the whole team.
    Cleaner ants carried waste food from inside the nest to outside. Hauler ants walked on the top of the nest and cleared rubbish. Gatherer ants went out to find food for the whole team and security ants fought against anyone who wanted to hurt the members of the team.
    While she was watching the ants in the desert, Deborah found that the most interesting part was watching the ants dealing with difficulties, such as fighting against other insects that wanted to destroy their nest, or a big fire. At those moments, they would all stop what they were doing and go to help security ants to protect their home.
    What do we do when people around us meet difficulties? What have we done to turn our world into a better place? It’s time to think.
