Where can you find a nice place to relax on holiday for both you and your children? Well, I suggest you try the beautiful and green Isle of Wight (IOW). The Isle of Wight is one of the main tourist attractions. Here is some information on a few of the attractions on the IOW.

Dinosaur Isle

It is located in Sandown, a seaside town on the southeast coast. It’s a large, lovely museum, both fun and educational. Here you can see a large fossil collection of all kinds of dinosaurs, as well as a gift shop. You can walk into the past and then the future, learning about the history and the development of the civilization of dinosaurs that lived 120 million years ago.

Robin Hill Country Park

The park is in the beautiful countryside, and is suitable for children’s parties and games. It has five new gardens, and offers great opportunities to see and take pictures of the rare red squirrels.

The West of the Wight

Here we have the Marine Aquarium, the Archaeology Exhibition and the Model Railway. They offer another opportunity to combine fun with learning. This is a great place to see ancient boats crossing the narrow strait between the island and the mainland.

The Wight Bus Museum

This museum is run completely by unpaid volunteers. It has a bus collection stored in what was once a warehouse（仓库）. Most of the buses in the museum date back to around the 1910’s.

With all of these choices, what are you waiting for? IOW Tourism welcomes you!

Texting while walking is something that most of us are guilty of. We can’t help replying to that message we just received. However, while it’s fun to keep up with the latest gossip, we may actually be putting ourselves in danger.

A team of researchers from two UK universities recently found that people who use their phones while on the move walk differently than usual.

“Recently, a person in front of me was walking very slowly and weaving (迂回行进), and I thought, ‘Is this person drunk?’” Matthew Timmis, co-author of the study, told the Guardian.

It turned out that the person was just texting. Inspired by this, Timmis and his team set out to discover the effects of phone use on how we navigate streets.

A group of 21 volunteers were asked to walk around a simulated (模拟的) street, complete with obstacles such as a step. The participants traveled the course a total of 12 times each, either writing or reading a message, making a call, or with no phone at all.

It took the volunteers 118 percent longer to complete the course when using a phone. They also focused on the step obstacle 60 percent more and paid attention to the travel path 51 percent more when they weren’t using a phone.

Although there were no accidents, Timmis believes we should still be aware of what’s going on around us.

“The big risk here is suddenly-appearing hazards (危险), like a pedestrian (行人) suddenly walking in front of you,” he told the Guardian. “You are not going to be able to respond to that as efficiently, which increases the risk of injury.”

To bring attention to the dangers of “text walking”, a temporary “texting lane” was set up in Antwerp, Belgium in 2015. And earlier this year, a special crosswalk featuring flashing red lights on the ground to get the attention of texters was set up in Wuhan, Hubei province.

“Texting while walking can lead to collisions with poles or other pedestrians. You could even be endangering your own life when you cross the street without looking up,” a spokesperson for the company that made the Antwerp texting lane told Yahoo News.

4．What did the UK researchers recently discover about text walking?

A. It’s a common problem all around the world.

B. People walk in a different way when texting.

C. People are risking their lives text walking.

D. It has caused more traffic accidents.

5．How much longer did it take for people to complete the course when using a phone in Timmis’ experiment?

A. 12 percent longer.

B. 118 percent longer.

C. 60 percent longer.

D. 51 percent longer.

6．What was the purpose of setting up the “texting lane” in Belgium?

A. To provide a safe lane for text walking.

B. To attract more people to walk in the lane.

C. To give an example of a modern lane.

D. To warn of the dangers of text walking.

7．The underlined word “navigate” in paragraph 5 can be replaced by________.

A. go up

B. go away

C. go across

D. go by

C

A day in the life of 18-year-old David Lanster is full of typical teenage stuff: school, baseball practice, homework. And then he starts cooking.

“Some nights I’m up until I am making pies, or even later if we’re braising (蒸) beef,” said the student at Ransom Everglades High School in Florida, US.

For the past year, Lanster and Kelly Moran, his classmate, have been hosting fancy dinner parties at Lanster’s parents’ home. Their meals have 17 courses and are all made by them.

Their guests used to give them gifts to thank them, until the pair decided to do something nice for charity (慈善).

“We got some really great Miami Heat tickets, a nice watch, and many kitchen gadgets (小物件),” Lanster said. “But we wanted to make this something positive for people other than us.”

Lanster and Moran focused on Common Threads, a charity that aims to teach kids in poor communities (社区) to cook and make healthy eating choices.

The young cooks ask their guests to give however much they want as payment for their meals. It all goes to Common Threads because Lanster’s parents cover their food costs. After their last 12-person event, Lanster and Moran gave $1,600 (10,600 yuan) to the charity.

Now, they’re taking their show out of the kitchen and on the road. Lanster and Moran have started to organize private dinner parties with a similar model: the host pays for the ingredients, and the guests make a donation to a charity of their choice.

Without formal (正规的) training, Lanster said he had been interested in cooking since he helped his mom in the kitchen when he was very young. He learned how to cook by reading cookbooks and watching TV programs.

Outside the kitchen, the two are busy preparing their college applications. Neither is sure what they will do in the future, but they’ve promised their parents that they’ll leave professional cooking alone until they finish school.

8．How is Lanster’s life different from other teenagers’ lives?

A. He stays up late to finish homework.

B. He plays baseball every day after school.

C. He goes to a cooking school in his spare time.

D. He holds dinner parties to collect money for charity.

9．After each dinner party, Lanster and Moran ______.

A. receive thank-you cards from the guests

B. cover the food costs with the money they have collected

C. ask their guests to donate money to charity

D. visit the poor children at Common Threads

10．Which of the following about Lanster and Moran is TRUE?

A. They received formal cooking training before starting their dinner parties.

B. They hate going to school and trying to do something different.

C. They’ve made up their minds to become professional chefs.

D. Their way of giving to charity is different from others.

11．Which of the following words best describe Lanster and Moran?

A. Creative and helpful.

B. Humorous and optimistic.

C. Outgoing and patient.

D. Confident and cautious.

D

AlphaGo is a computer program that plays the board game Go.

In March, 2016, the pride of humankind was crushed (粉碎) by a computer. Google’s AlphaGo defeated the South Korean grandmaster (围棋大师) Lee Sedol four games to one, as the world looked on with shock and awe (敬畏). Artificial intelligence (AI, 人工智能) had suddenly reached a new and unexpected height.

But as smart as AlphaGo is, it’s no longer the best Go “player” in the world. Google’s artificial intelligence group, DeepMind, has created the next generation of its Go-playing program, called AlphaGo Zero. The new AI program is unique in the way it learned to play Go. Instead of learning from thousands of human matches, as its predecessor (前任) did, AlphaGo Zero mastered Go in just two days without any human knowledge of the game and defeated AlphaGo by day three, reported The Guardian. It then went on to defeat AlphaGo 100 games to zero.

To learn how to play Go, AlphaGo Zero played millions of matches against itself using only the basic rules of the game to rapidly create its own knowledge of it. Like the previous version, it used “reinforcement (增强) learning to become its own teacher,” according to DeepMind’s website.

“It’s more powerful than previous approaches,” David Silver, AlphaGo’s lead researcher, told The Guardian, “because by not using human data, or human expertise in any fashion, we’ve removed the constraints (约束) of human knowledge and it is able to create knowledge itself.”

AlphaGo Zero’s approach to self-learning is a significant advancement in AI that could be applied to help solve some of the world’s biggest problems, according to a recent research report published in the journal Nature. For example, DeepMind co-founder Demis Hassabis argues that AlphaGo Zero could probably find cures for a number of serious diseases within weeks, according to The Telegraph. Indeed, the AI is now being used to study protein folding, which is connected to diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s.

So now that AI has exceeded (超过) the bounds of human knowledge, perhaps the question is not about what AI can learn from humans, but what humans can learn from AI. We can only wait and see.

12．What can we learn from the first three paragraphs?

A. AlphaGo defeated Lee Sedol five games to zero.

B. AlphaGo Zero defeated AlphaGo within one day.

C. AlphaGo Zero is the first program to defeat a human at Go.

D. AlphaGo Zero has become the new best Go player.

13．How is AlphaGo Zero different from previous Go-playing programs?

A. It can collect human knowledge automatically.

B. It can create knowledge without human limits.

C. It can become its own teacher in learning Go skills.

D. It can play many matches without a break.

14．What’s the possible application of AI in the future according to the article?

A. Treating diseases.

B. Making new Go rules.

C. Solving math problems.

D. Creating new proteins.

15．What is the author’s attitude towards AI?

A. Mixed.

B. Hopeful.

C. Doubtful.

D. Worried.

Ways To Manage Stress Creatively

Stress is a huge problem for us all. Here’s what I’ve learned and applied to manage stress using my creativity.

1.16．

Putting my creativity and my work first, I often neglected to eat, exercise, even stand up from my desk. I now realize that how I feel physically (and mentally) is more important than the work I create. Taking care of myself includes all natural remedies(疗法). I’m learning how to say no to social pressures, in favor of my own well being.

2. Don’t worry about what other people think of you.

This is easier said than done, but I promise it does come with age.17．A lot of people do offer unsolicited(自发的) advice. It is human nature to want to help other people. But if that advice is coming from a place of control or judgment, RUN in the opposite direction.

3. Don’t compare.

18．Most people are not as happy as they describe themselves to be. The best advice I ever heard was this：Don’t compare your inside to other people’s outside. Be open to new experiences, be kind to yourself and accepting of the journey which is life. Being present means not thinking into the future, or harping(唠叨) on the past. The coolest thing about being present is that CREATIVITY LIVES IN THE MOMENT.19．

4. Your intentions matter.

20．What was your intention? I remind myself to enjoy the process of my creative fun stuff, it’s for me. If others like it, great, but it’s the enjoyment of my creative intention, in the moment, that I treasure.

A. Stop judging

B. Each moment is UNIQUE

C. We have to work in order to live

D. Take care of yourself--Mind AND Body

E. Stress is often caused by comparison to others

F. It’s important to remember why you started doing something

G. No one cares about what you’re doing unless what you’re doing affects them

I took the Harvard Summer School program in my vacation. During my stay there, I spend a lot of time studying in the main library Widener. I enjoyed myself in the ocean of knowledges, either doing research for my papers or read special edition books. The library, which it is named after its donor Harry Widener, stands right next to the Emerson building of philosophy. Opening a pair of heavy yet elegant metal doors, I was immediate bathed in warm light. I wandered around the library, fascinating to find one treasure after other.

The library is a amazing place. One can fully experience the academic atmosphere only he visits the library. For me, the library as well as the courses explain Harvard’s place as the home of devoted scholars.

【名师点睛】

关于七选五的做题步骤：

1、通读全文，对文章进行快速浏览，寻找主题句，抓住文章结构及文章的写作内容。在阅读过程中，要注意文章的开始与结束段落，尤其是文章的首段及末段末句，因为“开门见山”与“结尾总结”的写作方式为常见的写作方式，首段的末句一般是是全文的主题所在，说明本文将探讨哪些内容，并简要指出文章的写作思路，有时甚至会以提纲的形式进行呈现。首段的末句对于快速掌握文章的主题有重要意义。

2、详读段落，在短时间内，找出每段写作内容的关键词。明确各段的主题句或主旨大意。文章正文部分通常分为若干小段落。各段落会根据整体文章写作主题展开，对文章主体进行的不同方面的描述。找出各个小段落中的关键词，明确其描述内容，为整体试题的解决做好铺垫。阅读各个空的前后句，标记关键词，关键词包括句中的核心名词或名词词组（如带有形容词的名词词组）、专有名词、时间数字、代词、连词等。重点阅读各个问题附近的句子，圈定线索词，然后从选项中寻找相关的特征词，以确定答案。做题时可以采用代入排除法。如果一题做不出或拿不准，可先放过，继续往下读，先做容易的能做出的题，直到读完整篇文章。至此，文章的要点和主旨

3、定位选项，明确各备选选项的含义，抓住其关键词语，根据文章整体结构与具体内容，将选项填入文中，填写时尤为注意各选项中出现的句子衔接手段及句中的衔接标志词。在定位选项时，要特别注意空格上下段的写作内容，以及空格上段尾句和下段首句的结构和意义。将所选项放入空白处，看看是否与上下文构成语义及逻辑上的直接关系，是否符合该处语境。能否承接前后的写作线索。使文章无论内容还是衔接上都能做到通顺。

4、通读复检，将所选答案代入文中，再次通读全文，重点考查逻辑关系和关联结构。

在完成选项定位后，应通读全文，检查文章内容是否完整，语义是否连贯合理、各段落内容是否紧扣主题，语篇结构是否通顺连贯、具有一致性、合乎逻辑，写作思路是否清晰明了，格式以及用语是否恰当贴切，从而判断选择的答案是否正确。同时，我们还应注意对相近选项的对比分析，个别干扰项由于与某个正确选项的内容相近具有很强的干扰性，这时就需要我们认真分析，排除干扰，从而得出正确选项。

5、确定排除，研究多余选项，确定排除理由，最终确定答案。

【解析】本文主要介绍了中国的剪纸艺术。

41．考查时态语态。时间是东汉，是过去，纸是被发明的，为被动，故填was invented。

42．考查名词单复数。One of后接复数名词，意为最重要的中国民间艺术种类之一。故填types。

43．考查介词。此处用with引导的符合结构做独立主格结构，表示原因，因为不同的宗教采用他们自己的文化形式。

44．考查副词。此处为副词做状语，通常来说，用usually。

45．考查名词。红色和幸福有关系，介词后接名词，故填happiness。

46．考查代词。此处填形容词性的物主代词，意为它的，故填its。

47．考查连词。此处是定语从句，空格所指的意思是paper-cutting，又需充当主语，故用关系代词which。

48．考查不定式。此处为动词不定式表目的，故填to strengthen

49．考查冠词。此处为固定短语：a large number of：许多，大量。

50．考查非谓语动词。此句中已有谓语动词，故填非谓语动词，逻辑主语是前面的名词objects，和accept之间是被动关系，又有关键词by的提示，就更可确定为过去分词，填accepted。

语法填空的解题技巧

语法填空是通过语篇在语境中考查语法知识的运用能力。我们在解题前应快速浏览短文掌握大意，有把握的空格可以进行填写。在读懂的基础上，再结合短文提供的特定的语言环境去逐句分析逐题解答。按题型设计分三种情况：

1. 纯空格试题的解题技巧

首先分析句子结构，根据所缺成分确定哪类词。然后，根据句子意思，确定具体填什么词，或根据两句间的逻辑关系确定具体用哪个连词。比如第7题，考查连词，此处为定语从句，此处指代前文中的paper-cutting，物体，因为是非限制性定语从句，不能用that，故用which。

2. 给出了动词的试题解题技巧

首先，判断要填的动词是谓语动词还是非谓语动词。若句子没有别的谓语动词或者虽然已有谓语动词，但需填的动词与之是并列关系，所给动词就是谓语动词，若是谓语动词就要考虑时态和语态；若句子有谓语动词则用非谓语动词（动词不定式、现在分词、动名词和过去分词）。比如第10题，本题考查非谓语动词。首先你要确定此处为非谓语动词，因为已经有了谓语动词，其次找accept的逻辑主语，为objects，根据意思可知两者是被动关系，又有关键词by的提示，就更可确定为过去分词，故填accepted。

3. 词汇转换题解题技巧

这类题主要考查名词、形容词和副词。根据该词在句中所做句子成分确定用哪种形式。比如第5题，此题考查名词。此处意为幸福，介词后应接名词，故改为happiness。

51．1.spend改为spent2.knowledges改为knowledge3.read改为reading4.去掉it5.immediate改为immediately

6.fascinating改为fascinated7.other改为another8.a改为an9.only后加if/when10.explain改为explains

【解析】本文为一篇记叙文主要讲述了作者去哈佛夏季学校度假时的的所见所感，讲述作者对于哈佛这学校自己的看法，以及对哈佛各景物的介绍。

1.由于本文通篇主要时态为一般过去时，故将I spend a lot of time studying in the main library Widener. 中的spend改为spent。

2.由于knowledge知识为不可数名词，故将I enjoyed myself in the ocean of knowledges,中的knowledges改为knowledge。

3.根据前后时态一致的原则故将either doing research for my papers or read special edition books.中的read改成reading.

4.在非限制性顶于此哦那根据中which 指代句子中的主语或宾语在which it is named after its donor Harry Widener, 中which 在本句中作主语若加上it 的话则成分有所多余，故删掉it.

5.在immediate bathed 中immediate 作状语来修饰bath故此处immediate应当为副词的形式故将是改为immediately。

6.在 I wandered around the library, fascinating to find one treasure after other.fascinating用来修饰人故应当将其改成fascinated。

7.After another 为固定搭配意为一个接着一个，故将other改成another

8.Amazing为元音字母开头故前面不定冠词要用an

9.Only if 固定搭配 只有...故在only后面加上if。

10.当as well as 链接两个名词作主语时 要以前面的名词为准进行单双数的变化故将explain改为explains

52．Dear Natasha,

I am Li Hua. I’m writing to apologize to you for not being able to participate in the “Chinese Traditional Culture Day” activity to be held on the Saturday morning with you as we planned last week.

To be honest, I wish I could join in the activity, but I am afraid I will not be available because I was informed yesterday that I would have to go to Beijing for a contest on the morning of Saturday. That’s why I can’t go with you. I am awfully sorry for breaking my promise and I apologize for any inconvenience it brings to you.I hope you can understand me.

Wish you a good time there.

Yours,

Li Hua

【解析】根据提示可知，要求写一封书信；你和外教Natasha原定于本周六上午一起参加“中国传统文化日”活动。但因故你不能履约，信中要陈述不能参加的原因，并表示歉意。时态应为一般现在时和将来时，人称使用第一人称。根据提示及关键词进行遣词造句，注意主谓一致和时态问题。连词成句，注意使用恰当的连词进行句子之间的衔接和过渡，书写一定要规范清晰，保持整洁美观的卷面是非常重要的。

亮点句子：

I’m writing to apologize to you for not being able to participate in the “Chinese Traditional Culture Day” activity to be held on the Saturday morning with you as we planned last week.使用了apologize to somebody for doing something短语，动词不定式短语to be held on the Saturday作定语修饰activity。

That’s why I can’t go with you.句子中why引导表语从句。
