I returned to my room and I did as my father told me. To my surprise, I found that about half the things were true. 【3】.

24、Is your TV connected to the Internet? What about your chair,or your fridge? Probably they are not. But in the future, most things in your home may be connected, thanks to the so-called “Internet of things”.

The Internet of things may be coming sooner than you think. Earlier this year, Aamsung CEO spent a lot of time talking abput the Internet things. He said that five years from now,every Samsung product will be part of the Internet of things,no matter whether it’s a remote control or a washing machine.

So, how do household(家用的) objects that are part of the Internet of things work? Well,think of a common chair. When connected to the Internet, the chair warms up when it knows the user has just walked into the room and is feeling cold.

An Internet-connected camera could help people feel safer in their homes. It can know people’s faces and has an infrared sensr(红外传感器),so even if it’s dark it can see when someone passes by and send you a message on your smartphone to let you know who’s there. If the person is someone you don’t know,it can tell you that ,too.

But according to MIT Technology Roview, whether companies are connecting dog food bowls or security systems to the Internet, there may be some problems. For example, many early connected-home objects don’t have much built-in security, which means they could be hacked(被黑客攻击). Morever, it could be difficult to get these new machines to work together especially when they are made by different companies. To fight this ,many companies have joined the Open Interconnect Consortium, which had 45 menbers by late 2014.

So, picture this: you enter your home.The temperature changes to make you feel comfortable. Your favorite music starts playing for you. Do you think that this would be a good thing? I t may happen sooner than you think.

26、

In English, “as dead as dodo” means someone or something is totally, unquestionably dead. But the dodo, stubby (矮，胖的) bird that has been extinct (灭绝的) for hundreds of years, may not be dead anymore!

US company Colossal Biosciences said it would try to bring the dodo back to life. The bird used to live on the island of Mauritius (毛里求斯) in the Indian Ocean until the 17th century.

The place to bring back the dodo would be Mauritius. Ben Lamm, the co-founder of the company told The Guardian. Bringing back dodos into the ecosystem (生态系统) of the island, instead of being a newcomer to somewhere else, is thought to bring benefits to the plants and animals that already live there.

The company has found the genetic code (基因序列) of the extinct animals from their dead bodies. It will change the DNA of currently living animals to make them close to the animal of the past. The Nicobar pigeon (尼可巴鸠) will be used as the genetic base for the dodo, according to MIT Technology Review.

The company also plans for other extinct animals, such as the mammoth (猛犸象). They believe that mammoths introduced to the Arctic (北极) could help with climate change as they turn the wet tundra (苔原) into sunlight-reflecting dry grasslands by eating the grass, according to The New Yorker.

However, some people don’t like the idea. With a third of all bird species in decline (减少), protecting today’s species is needed more than focusing on animals of the past, said BBC Science Focus.

【1】If “as dead as a dodo” is used to describe someone’s phone, it means the phone is ______.

A．lost

B．out of power

C．nice and fancy

D．hard to use

【2】Why did the company choose Mauritius as the dodos’ living place?

A．Because the island is set as a research place for new species.

B．Because dodos won’t have natural enemies on the island.

C．Because they used to live there and may benefit the ecosystem.

D．Because the island has the best ecosystem in the world.

【3】How will the company bring the dodo back?

A．By changing the closest bird’s DNA to make it similar to the dodo’s.

B．By producing dodos with DNA from their dead bodies.

C．By combining dodos’ DNA with mammoths’ DNA.

D．By changing the dead dodos’ DNA to make them reborn.

【4】According to the last paragraph, BBC Science Focus agrees that ______.

A．the number of bird species has dropped much faster than other species

B．focusing on endangered animals is more important than extinct ones

C．bringing extinct animals back to life is meaningful for today’s species

D．it is impossible to bring extinct animals back to life exactly as they were

27、   According to a study of Travel + Leisure, a travel magazine based in New York City, eight out of the nine most popular amusement parks in the world have to do with Walt Disney. Why are his parks so popular?

Actually, amusement parks in the past were so simple that they only had swings, seesaws( 跷跷板) and rotating (旋转的)chairs. They were so boring. The customer service was also poor. However, when Disney realized this problem, he made up his mind to improve it. So he went to ride toy trains with children in the park because he wondered how the children felt.

Meanwhile, he asked several children what their ideal (理想的) amusement park would be like. The children wanted buildings in the parks to be like the palaces they saw in cartoons. Walt Disney explored the children’s world and then provided the children with what they wanted.

After the first Disney World amusement park was built, children rushed into it with a feeling of excitement. Whenever there were new movies, Walt Disney always made an effort to follow them. You may wonder how he was so successful. As you can see, his secret is empathy (同理心).

Empathy means seeing with the eyes of another, listening with the cars of another and feeling with the heart of another. Empathy also means “putting yourself into others’ shoes’’. Empathy can help us understand others’ feelings. Therefore, it can help us make things others need, such as mobile phone shells that can protect phones from damage, or mobile wheelchairs that can climb stairs. When we know about others’ feelings, we can make friends more easily.

Empathy is a quality in everyone that can lead to creativity, kindness and happiness.
