2．On March 3，1887，the lives of two amazing women were changed forever when Anne Sullivan，a poor university graduate，arrived at the home of the wealthy Keller family to teach their six-year-old daughter Helen.It was a difficult job as Helen was unable to see，hear or speak because of illness.
Anne had been suggested to the Kellers by her university professor，a close friend of Mr.Keller.Before she arrived，Anne expected her new pupil to be a quiet，weak child.But Helen was nothing like that.When Anne first walked through the Kellers' door，the energetic Helen nearly knocked her over in her hurry to feel Anne's face，clothing and bag.
Helen was used to visitors bringing her sweets，and angrily tried to open Anne's case to take her candy.But Anne calmed her down by allowing Helen to play with her watch.So began one of the most successful student-teacher relationships in history.
Anne Sullivan was only twenty years old when she began teaching Helen.She had to not only teach the child all the usual school subjects，but also control Helen's sometimes wild behavior.
Her well-meaning parents allowed Helen to do as she liked at home.Realizing that such an environment was unsuitable for learning，Anne requested that she and Helen live in a small house nearby.
As soon as Helen began learning，it became clear that she was especially intelligent.She quickly learned to read and write，and by the age of ten she could also speak.
In 1900，Helen started studying at Radcliffe University，and graduated first in her class in 1904.She was the very first blind and deaf person to get a university degree.How did she do it？Anne Sullivan read all of Helen's books and then signed the information into her hand.Anne remained at Helen's side until her death in 1936.Helen became a world-famous writer，and fought for disabled people's rights until her death on June 1，1968.

3．China has rich food culture.There are interesting stories behind some cuisine （菜肴），as well as table manners relating to tableware（餐具）.
Hotpot
Hotpot has been popular among Chinese people for a long time.As early as in the Shang Dynasty （c.16th century -11th century BC），people boiled foods in bronze cauldrons（青銅鼎）.The cauldron had two parts – one was the pot to cook foods in soup，and the other part was a layer（層） or a space inside the cauldron to hold firewood.
People started to have lattice（分格的）hotpot during the Han Dynasty（206 BC-AD 220）.They divided pots into several parts to enjoy different flavors（口味）.
Yuan Mei was a poet and foodie（美食家）in the Qing Dynasty（1644-1911）.He mentioned huoguo，the Chinese name for hotpot，in a book about all kinds of food.At that time，hotpot was very popular.People put all kinds of meat and vegetables into the hotpot.They also used different materials，such as copper（銅）and iron （鐵），to make pots.
Dongpo pork
There is a famous Chinese dish called "Dongpo pork".Does it have anything to do with the great poet Su Dongpo？
Yes.Su Dongpo （Su Shi）was a poet who lived during the Song Dynasty（960-1279）.He was the first to make this dish.When he was a local official in Huangzhou，Hubei，he fell in love with cooking pork.In his article Ode to Pork（《豬肉頌》），Su wrote about how to cook it.
According to folk stories，the dish became well-known when Su went to Hangzhou，Zhejiang，to take office.One day，there was a big flood and Su went out to help jye.ai.People heard that Su loved eating pork，so they gave him a lot of it.But Su wanted to give it back.He cooked the pork in his own special way.Then he gave the dish to every family in the city and every worker on the street.Very soon the dish became famous in Hangzhou and got the name "Dongpo pork".
Chopsticks
What are the dos and don'ts of using chopsticks？
For Chinese people，chopsticks are not just simple tools to pick up food.They come with their own special rules and traditions.
First，people should not make noise with chopsticks.Playing with chopsticks is seen as rude，just as playing with forks and knives in a Western country is.
There are also some superstitions（迷信）related to chopsticks.For example，some people believe that chopsticks should not be left standing upright in a bowl.It looks like the incense（香）that Chinese people use to honor （祭奠）the dead.Doing it at the dinner table is believed to bring bad luck.
You should not tap chopsticks on the edge （邊緣） of the bowl either，as beggars do this to ask for food.

8．Since the 1970s，scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers.Brain-computer interface （BCI） technology could help people with disabilities send commands（指令）to machines.
Recently，two researchers，Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne，Switzerland，showed us a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person's thoughts.
BCI定義BCI（Brain-computer-Interface），即腦機接口是一種不依賴于正常的由外圍神經(jīng)和肌肉組成的輸出通路的通訊系統(tǒng)。
BCI是一種連接大腦和外部設備的實時通信系統(tǒng)，它可以把大腦發(fā)出的信息直接轉換成能夠驅動外部設備的命令，并代替人的肢體或語言器官實現(xiàn)人與外界的交流以及對外部環(huán)境的控制。
BCI的實質為通過腦信號推斷人的想法或目的，從而實現(xiàn)人機交流。
In the laboratory，Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand."Our brain has billions of nerve cells（細胞）.These send signals through the spinal cord（脊髓）to the muscles to give us the ability to move.But some injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles，" Tavella says."①Our system（系統(tǒng)）allows disabled people to communicate with outside world by controlling the machines with thoughts."
②The researchers designed a special cap for the user.It picks up the signals from our brain and sends them to a computer.The computer gets the signals and starts to command the wheelchair after a short while.
Prof.Millan，the team leader，says scientists keep improving the computer software that gets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. "The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two kinds：communication and controlling machines.One example is this wheelchair."
He says his team has set a main goal.That is to test with real patients in order to prove（證明）that this is a technology they can benefit from.
（1）What can BCI help the disabled do？
（2）How did Tavella operate the wheelchair？
（3）請將文中①處譯成漢語。
（4）請將文中②處劃線句子改為被動語態(tài)。
（5）Why will Prof.Millian's team test their products with real patients？組卷：6引用：1難度：0.5

9．生活中，父母給予我們無私的關愛，但年少任性的我們也曾經(jīng)給他們惹了不少麻煩，有時候還跟他們頂嘴、吵架。隨著年齡的增長，我們慢慢地理解他們，懂得"愛"的偉大。假設你的父親或母親的生日馬上要到了，請給他（她）寫一封信，表達一下你對他（她）的祝福。具體內容和要求如下：

（2）回憶一件"不聽話"的經(jīng)歷，并向他（她）致歉；
（3）感謝他（她）的照顧及幫助（可陳述1-2點）；
（4）致以美好的祝愿并向他（她）做出承諾，你會如何變得更棒；
