After a moment，the father yet again asked his son for the fourth time， "What is that？" This time his son shouted at his father， "Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again？I have told you already， 'IT IS A CROW'．Are you not able to understand this？"
A minute later the father went to his room and came back with a diary，which he had kept since his son was born．On opening a page，he asked his son to read that page．

3．Clara Barton，born on Christmas in 1821，is widely known as one of the most honored women in American history．She began teaching school when most teachers were men at that time．Later，she became one of the first women ever to be employed by the government．
Her career in helping the sick began when her brother David became her first patient．He fell down from the roof of a house when Clara was just 11 years old．She stayed by his side and looked after him for three years，learning how to give him all his medicines．
When the Civil War began in 1861，she immediately recognized that the poorly equipped soldiers needed help．Instead of waiting for others to step in，Clara collected necessary things on her own，asked the public for donations and learned how to store and distribute them to soldiers．She also read to the soldiers and wrote letters for them．
After the Battle of Cedar Mountain in northern Virginia in 1862，Clara arrived at a field hospital at midnight with a vehicle full of supplies．A doctor named Paul Smith at that hospital would later write，"I thought heaven had sent out an angel that night-her assistance arrived at exactly the right time．"
In 1869，Clara went to Europe and learned about the International Committee of the Red Cross．Upon her return to the United States，she successfully founded the American Red Cross．She led the organization for the next 23 years．Her last field mission （使命） as president of the American Red Cross was to help the victims of the 1900 Galveston hurricane．She did not retire （退休） from the American Red Cross until she was 83．True to her nature，Clara always went to where the need was the greatest．
Today，the American Red Cross continues the mission Clara started more than 100 years ago．With the help of thousands of volunteers，the American Red Cross provides relief to victims of disasters，as well as helps people prevent，prepare for and respond to all sorts of emergencies．

4．Many people dream of seeing things in the dark.Now their dream comes true.According to a press release from The Australian National University，by wearing a pair of glasses，you can drive safely at night，walk home in the dark or explore dark forests and caves without holding a flashlight!
The technology is composed of a thin film that will be placed on the lenses （鏡片） of regular glasses.Compared to traditional night vision devices，it is inexpensive to make，easy to mass-produce，and lightweight.The thin film is made of nanometer-level substances that are hundreds of times thinner than a human hair.Yet，despite its tiny size，is performance is impressive.
"Our technology is able to transform infrared light （紅外光） into images，" lead researcher Dr.Rocio Camacho Morales said in the press release.
Over the years scientists have studied animals active at night by using infrared cameras，and infrared imaging has been used for body scans in the medical world and for food quality control in the industrial world.Conventional infrared imaging devices work by detecting the beat of an object.The infrared detectors use a cooler and are also sensitive to thermal noise （熱噪聲）.Such disadvantages led the team into exploring an improved device.
Their new device is able to function at room temperature.The new technology is not large or heavy like previous technologies.Once this new night vision device is available to all，it could save lives.Drivers will be able to find their way better at night，especially when driving on rough roads.Police can use it when searching at night，and hikers who lose their way can feel more confident walking in the dark.
（1）How does the author explain the new technology's advantages in paragraph2？
A．By providing data.
B．By giving examples.
C．By presenting experiments.
D．By making comparisons.
（2）What can we know about the new technology？
A．It will replace all the conventional devices.
B．It is sensitive to thermal noise.
C．It takes advantage of nanometer-level substances.
D．It uses a cooler to function at room temperature.
（3）Who rarely uses conventional infrared imaging？
A．Doctors.
B．Drivers.
C．Scientists.
D．Companies.
（4）What does the last paragraph focus on about the new technology？
A．Its practical applications.
B．Its potential consumers.
C．Its future improvements.
D．Its working conditions.組卷：2引用：4難度：0.6

5．Everyone wants to be happy，but not everyone can make it．Do you want to have a good mood every day？If so，the following steps will be useful to you．
Be grateful．
（1）They can be simple things like the purple flower on the sidewalk，the beautiful sunset，and the hot shower you take every day．When you have a grateful heart，you'll cherish them and be naturally filled with happiness．
（2）
When you put your mind，heart and soul into what you're doing，you're creating a happiness state-called the"flow"．When you're living in the flow，you're less likely to mind what others may think about you，and less bothered by unimportant things．The result？More happiness，of course!
Become a problem solver．
Happy people are problem solvers．（3）Instead，they face up to the challenge and channel （用于）their energies into finding a creative solution．By becoming a problem solver，you'll build up your self-confidence and your ability to accomplish whatever you determine to do．
Practice forgiveness．
Hatred and anger are forms of self-punishment．When you forgive，you're actually practicing kindness to yourself．（4）Everyone makes mistakes．It's through our mistakes that we learn and grow to become a bigger and better person．
Give back．
Doing good is one of the surest ways to feel good．According to Harvard，when people do good，their brains become active in the very same reward center that is stimulated when they experience other rewards．（5）
A．Go with the flow．
B．Focus on what you are doing．
C．And most importantly，learn to forgive yourself．
D．When they face a challenge in life，they don't fall into a sad state．
E．When they meet with difficulties，they will solve them on their own．
