| Fix it on your own Did you know that a bowl of rice could save your iPod if you drop it in a swimming pool by accident? Or that the camera on your phone could tell you what's wrong with your TV remote control? The experts at Geek Squad (geelsquad.co.uk) have made a gadget (小机件) rescue guide. So, let's take a look at some of their useful advice. ● How to get more juice out of your phone battery (电池) If your battery goes dead but you need to get a number or send one last text, try warming it up. That may give you a tiny bit of power. Take the battery from the phone and rub it between your hands. Or warm it under your arm for a few minutes. Then try to start the phone-but use it quickly. ● What to do if your gadget gets wet First, try drying it out with a vacuum cleaner. If a vacuum cleaner isn't at hand, fill a pot or bowl with uncooked rice and put your wet gadget inside. The dry, uncooked rice will absorb all the water and, after a few hours, you should be able to use the gadget: Don't forget to remove the battery and SIM card before you dry it. ● What to do if your TV remote control stops working If replacing the batteries doesn't work, get the camera function up on your phone and point the remote at the lens (镜头). When you press a button on the remote, if it is working, the glass bobble (小球) at the front of the remote will light up when you look at it on the screen of your phone. This is because the screen on a phone or digital camera picks up infrared rays (红外线), even though your eyes don't. If the glass bobble doesn't light up, the remote is broken. If it does, the receiving device is broken. |
| 1. If your cell phone falls into a sink, you can _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. warm it up under your arm B. put it into the uncooked rice C. press it with both of your hands D. remove the battery after you dry it |
| 2. Why can a phone be used to prove the TV remote control works well? |
|
[ ] |
| A. Because it can receive infrared ray. B. Because it can reflect infrared ray. C. Because it can improve the TV remote control. D. Because it can picture the TV remote control. |
| 3. In which section of a newspaper can we possibly read this text? |
|
[ ] |
| A. Entertainment. B. Finance. C. Culture. D. Life. |
| 4. The purpose of the passage is to give people _____. |

| Is a recently discovered hormone the reason why folks who lose weight can't keep it off? Like millions of other fat people, at 530 inches high, more than 300 pounds, Carnie Wilson was not just fat. After trying all sort of diets that didn't work, she had to go to the stomach-bypass surgery (胃部迂回手 术), ie, have most of her stomach sewed up, only leaving tiny room to hold several tablespoonfuls at most. Result: she simply couldn't eat the way she used to. In three years, Wilson is one third of her former weight. Wilson's experience is not all that unusual, and while doctors still aren't exactly sure what is going on, a report in last week's Journal of Medicine offers an explanation. The loss of appetite in bypass patients may be linked to a recently discovered hormone called ghrelin. Not only that, ghrelin may turn out to be one reason we feel hungry and it's hard for dieters to keep weight off. Nowadays, researchers are careful to stress only what they know for sure. For the three conclusions, the leading Dr. David of the University of Washington says, "I feel very solid about two of them." The first is that ghrelin levels in the bloodstream rise significantly before meals and drop afterward. The second conclusion is that ghrelin levels are higher on average in people who have lost weight from dieting. Dr. David is less sure of the third conclusion, that bypass patients have only a quarter as much ghrelin as most people of normal weight. After all, ghrelin is produced by cells in the stomach Years ago, leptin, a hormone was found as an appetite suppressant (食物抑制剂). But after years of trying, it had to be given up. What doctors suspect is that both leptin and ghrelin are part of a complex system of brain and body chemicals that govern weight and appetite. That does not mean pharmaceutical (药物的) weight control is forever out of the question. "In the next ten years, we will be able to develop new drugs to help people lose weight healthily and effectively." |

| As is known to all that millions of graduates crowded into the job market each year. But because of the financial crisis, the situation of the employment has become very serious. Consider this, some people suggest graduates should have a lower career expectation, such as working in the western area of China. I in favor of this idea. Firstly, compared with the big cities, the competition is not as fierce there, but graduates can easy get a job. Secondly, the lower position may offer graduate more space. All in all, going to the west maybe bring more benefits. Devote yourself to the west, for it is both good for our personal development and for our country at present. __________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________ |
