I AM A COURIER I am a courier. Many people today are glad to see us, because they expect to receive what they have bought on the Internet. When I see their eager faces, I feel that my job is valuable. I am proud of my job. Why did I choose to be a courier？ The first benefit is, I think, couriers can usually deliver an item faster than it would have taken if sent by other means. For example, a person may need to send a document to someone else. He could do this by sending it through the mail. If the two parties are in the same city, this transaction is likely to take at least one day. Couriers, however, usually can make it happen within hours. Secondly, couriers generally offer a receipt for the delivery and that can make their clients feel more secure. Postal services generally are not as efficient in this regard. Even text messages and e-mails may not be comparable. In many cases, without delivery confirmation, the sender knows that something was sent, but there is no confirmation as to whether it was received or when it was received. Most importantly, the Internet has changed people’s shopping habits. More and more people tend to shop on the Internet. The goods bought on the Internet have to be delivered by couriers. So a courier can make more money if he wants to work longer hours. That’s why I have chosen to work as a courier. Well, that’s about my job. Time is money. I have to send packages to the next place now. Talk to you later. 1. People are glad to see couriers because they can bring people good luck. [答案]F 2. Couriers can deliver items faster than other means only in the same city. [答案]F 3. Postal services generally are not as efficient because there isn’t delivery confirmation. [答案]T 4. If working longer hours, couriers can earn more money. [答案]T 5. The courier who is talking likes his job. [答案]T 二、阅读理解：阅读下面的对话，选择合适的内容将对话补充完整。

With the explosion of digital media in recent years, a growing number of students are spending their time in front of the small screen---whether it’s a Smartphone or tablet. In just two years, the number of US children using digital media has doubled to 72 percent, according to a survey by Common Sense Media. On average, students spend about two hours a day in front of the screen. Watching TV makes up half of this time. But gradually, the time children spend watching TV is decreasing, with more and more time being given to digital media. Some of the common things kids do with digital media are playing games, watching videos and sending messages to friends. The digital world can be used very effectively. In the survey, 74 percent of teachers said that digital media would improve students’ learning. As students can quickly get hold of information they need. However, without guidance from teachers or parents, digital media may have bad influence on students’ attention span and communication skills. So it’s always best to use your smartphone and tablet carefully. When using digital media, you need to find a balance. Just like study, too much can lead to information overload, and give you a headache. Also, make sure your smartphone or tablet doesn’t take priority over more important tasks. Give your eyes a rest, and remember：offline is just as fun as online. 1. Two years ago, the number of US children who use digital media made up _____. [答案]B. 36% 2.

WILL E-READERS REPLACE THE CONVENTIONAL PAPER BOOK？ Kindles, Nooks and other e-readers are threatening the future of printed books. But reading itself may get a boost from the devices. For example, a study found that the kids felt better about reading after a course in which they used Amazon Kindles. The research is in the _International Journal of Applied Science and Technology. For two months, 199 middle-school students in a reading improvement class in Texas had 15 to 25 minutes every day when they were free to read on the Kindle. In general, the students felt the device improved their reading ability. And they tended to enjoy using an e-reader. They noted the ease of carrying multiple books in one device, and the feeling that reading was suddenly a high-tech 21st-century activity rather than a boring waste of time. And some low-level readers who might otherwise be embarrassed to be seen with a simple book liked keeping their peers in the dark about what title they were reading. In the old days, one had to use a fake book-cover to achieve that level of secrecy. 1. Amazon Kindles is a kind of e-books. [答案]T 2. The research done in the _International Journal of Applied Science and Technology_ has lasted for two years. [答案]F 3. The students felt e-books could not improve their reading ability. [答案]F 4.

Improving work safety is a must and a goal. It should be on everyone’s mind. According to the US Department of Labor, every year almost 6000 people are fatally injured at work. More than four million people suffer non-fatal injuries. What’s worse, many of these deaths and injuries were due to carelessness, and could have easily been avoided by paying more attention to safety rules.

YOUR WORKING ENVIRONMENT IS KILLING YOU! Many of us spend plenty of our time at work, but rarely give much thought to how our environment might be affecting us. Open offices could be making you unproductive and unhappy. A 2011 review of studies examined the effects of various types of office environments. It found that open offices can have a negative impact on workers when it comes to focus, efficiency, creativity and job satisfaction12. However, a 2013 study found that employees with private offices were more satisfied at work. A noisy workspace could be killing your concentration because of phones ringing and colleagues chatting, typing and moving around. These noises are the enemy of focus and meaningful time is lost. Your working environment could be upping your stress levels. A recent Monster.com poll found that 42 percent of U.S. workers have left a job due to stressful environment. It also found that 61 percent of American workers believe that work stress has been a cause of illness. A sedentary lifestyle increases your risk of disease. We’ve all heard that sitting is the new smoking. Your desk job could almost be killing you. Sitting at a desk all day can also contribute to aches and pains, while staring at a computer screen for hours can cause vision problems and headaches. It’s no exaggeration that your working environment is killing you. Be alert! 1. Many of us __________ pay much attention to our working environment. [答案]A. seldom 2. Open offices could make you __________. [答案]B. inefficient and upset 3. It was found that employees with _________ were more satisfied at work. [答案]A. private offices 4. According to the passage, _________ are the enemy of focus. [答案]C. noises 5. Staring at a computer screen for hours increases your chances of _________. [答案]C. Both A and B 二、阅读理解：阅读下面的短文，根据文章内容进行判断，正确为T，错误为F。

PROTECTING EYES FROM COMPUTER SCREENS Many of us spend the bulk of the day looking at computer screens. Reading this article means there’s a good chance you’re looking at one right now. But does looking at computer screens damage your eyes？ Professor Nathan Efron does not consider computer screens harmful to our eyes. But he admits if you use one a lot, you increase your risk of becoming slightly more short-sighted –where your eyes focus well only on close objects while more distant objects appear blurred. This is especially the case for children and young adults, whose eyes are still developing. In the shorter term, prolonged viewing of a computer screen can make any slight existing vision defects more noticeable. It can also give you what is sometimes known as computer vision syndrome – eye strain, headaches, gritty eyes and blurry vision. But this is only temporary and can be minimized by: Adjusting the screen display so the contrast is high and the brightness feels comfortable. Having lighting that does not produce glare on the screen. Giving your eyes regular rests from looking at the screen (The Optometrists Association of Australia recommends you do this for five to ten minutes every one to two hours of computer use. It＇s a good time to make phone calls or do other tasks.) 1. Many of us spend much time looking at computer screens. [答案]T 2. Looking at computer screens for long time doesn’t damage children and young adults’ eyesight. [答案]F 3. Computer vision syndrome cannot be weakened. [答案]F 4. It’s good taking breaks during screen watching. [答案]T 5. Proper lighting is important to protect our eyes. [答案]T 二、阅读理解：阅读下面的对话，选择合适的内容将对话补充完整。

NEW MATERIAL CAN COOL BUILDINGS Researchers at Stanford University have developed a new material that can move heat out of buildings and into space. The material can cool buildings even on hot days. The cooling material is a very thin sheet with many layers that could be placed on a roof like solar panels. However, instead of turning sunlight into energy as solar panels do, the material turns heat into infrared radiation. Shanhui Fan is an electrical engineering professor at Stanford University. He says that the panels have a layer of material that is like sand. The panels also act like a mirror. They take heat out of buildings and reflect the light from the sun. Both the heat and sunlight are sent 100 kilometers into outer space. The panels are cool to the touch, even in the sun. Researchers say they can reduce the indoor temperature to nearly 5 degrees Celsius below the temperature outside. Mr. Fan says it is like having a window into space. He says the heat is sent directly into space without warming the air. Buildings in developing countries that do not have electricity or air conditioning could use the panels.In areas where one is off-grid,there is a significant potential benefit for storing medicine or even food. In many of these situations, being able to reduce the temperature is important. And this would provide a way to do it. The Stanford researchers described their technology in the science publication _Nature_. They say the main problem is creating actual cooling systems using the high-tech panels. It may be possible to develop a cooling spray technology in the next three to five years that could be used on existing solid structures. 1. The material can cool buildings only on cold days. [答案]F 2. The material turns heat intoinfrared radiation because it is a very thick sheet with many layers that could be placed on a roof like solar panels. [答案]F 3. The heat of the buildings and sunlight are sent 100 kilometers into outer space by the panels. [答案]T 4. The off-grid areas may use the panels to reduce the temperature of buildings to store medicine or even food. [答案]T 5. A cooling spray technology may be developed in the near future that could be used on existing solid structures. [答案]T 二、阅读理解：阅读下面的对话，选择合适的内容将对话补充完整。

It will be the 50th anniversary of the founding of Lehigh Valley Industrial Park Inc. LVIP’s successes have defined this region, including its economy, its residents’ working lives, even the look of broad areas across Lehigh and Northampton counties. People are duly observing the date with banquets, awards and other festivities. But they ought to know about a few facts in order to appreciate the importance of what was begun 50 years ago. LVIP now comprises seven planned parks. They are home to 460 companies. Those companies provide 22,000 jobs. LVIP has borrowed more than $436 million in private investment over the years. It has paid tens of millions of property and payroll taxes. We can imagine what will happen to this area if there aren’t those jobs. Obviously, we ought to appreciate the genius of LVIP’s founders. Fifty years ago, Bethlehem Steel Corp. and other integrated steelmakers were hit by the fifth nationwide strike in 15 years. Those cycles of strikes affected every part of the local economy. Contractor Frank L. Marcon told fellow board members at the Bethlehem Chamber of Commerce that a more diverse economy could be fostered if public and private leaders acted together. In those days, there were no state or federal economic development programs. So, 18 individuals pooled $250,000 of their own money and LVIP sold bonds to raise $400,000 more to buy four farms along Airport Road. The City of Bethlehem contributed planning work, amended its zoning code and worked out an affordable way to add streets, curbs and sewers. Companies like Bethlehem Steel made major contributions, creating a new model for cooperation. Another important decision was made that year. It made Lehigh Valley part of the name of the new endeavor. The late Walter Dealtrey, a former LVIP board president, used to tell people that back then, decades before regionalization became part of the public vocabulary. Those leaders knew their vision had to carry the stamp of big ideas. That first 226 acre tract could have been called Bethlehem Industrial Park, because that’s where it was. 1. Lehigh Valley Industrial Park is fifty years old now. [答案]T 2. Lehigh Valley Industrial Park plays a very important role in the local people’s lives. [答案]T 3. People don’t really know the history of Lehigh Valley Industrial Park. [答案]T 4. Steelmakers created Lehigh Valley Industrial Park. [答案]T 5. Only private leaders acted together to foster a more diverse economy. [答案]F 二、阅读理解：阅读下面的对话，选择合适的内容将对话补充完整。
