My Last First Day of High School

It seems like just yesterday when I was going to kindergarten with my twin. I remember vaguely(模糊的) learning about 36, the appearance of an object’s outside edges or surfaces. My days were not spent worrying about which 37I would be going to. Instead, things were much 38. It was all about who had the nicer backpack and if my hair was in pigtails.

When I woke up this morning I did not feel nervous. I felt a sense of 39 . This is the moment I have waited for all my life. One more year and I will be 40 my favorite major, journalism.

Today was not like any other 41 day. I drove with my sister to school. Gone are the days when my mom would take my sister and me to school at 8 am. We are 42our own.Going back to school and seeing everyone 43 it was a teacher or a friend from previous years, made me think 44 about the past. I never knew 45I missed them.

Everyone was happy to be back even though the state of being excited will 46 in the coming weeks. Teachers were 47 , students were laughing and I was taking it all in.

This year is 48 . My senior year will be filled with classes that I am interested in, not classes that I am 49 to take. I have put a lot of 50 into my future and cannot think of a better way to end my last year of high school.

I am over the moon to 51 have the opportunity to do what I want, in a way. Despite all of this 52 , it is still weird to me that I will be 53 in June. I have no idea what the 54 holds, but the only thing that is certain is that I am ready.

I am ready to take on the world. I am 55 . I am confident. And I owe everything to my wonderful teachers. Good luck to everyone in school this year, study hard and enjoy it.

I am a taxi driver．One Monday morning, I had stopped at New York Hospital when I spied a well-dressed man dashing down the steps．He was waving at me．I waited until he jumped into the cab．"LaGuardia Airport, please," he said．

As always, I wondered about my passenger．“What do you do?” “I’m in the neurology department（神经内科） at this hospital．" For some unknown reason, I decided to ask for his help．

"Could I ask a favor of you?" He didn't answer．"I have a son, 16．He's doing well in school．He wants a job this summer．Is there any possibility that you might get him a summer job?" After a pause, he said,"The medical students have a research project．Maybe he could fit in．Have him send me his school records．" He searched his pocket and handed me a card．

That evening, I pulled the card from my pocket．"Robbie," I announced proudly,"this could be a summer job for you．Send him your school record." He read it out loud,"Fred Plum, New York Hospital.""Is this a joke?" he said in disbelief．After I yelled and threatened to cut off his allowance, Robbie promised to send off his grades the next morning．

Two weeks later, when I arrived home, my son handed me a letter from Plum．He was to phone Plum's secretary for an interview．

Robbie got the job．The white coat he wore made him feel more important than he really was．As high school graduation neared, Plum was kind enough to write letters of recommendation for universities．To our delight, Robbie was admitted to New York Medical College．

It never occurred to me that a stranger should transform my son's future．

If hacking(黑客侵入）taught us anything in 2014, it’s actually nothing.

The password management firm SplashData released its list of the worst passwords of the year and it’s just as terrible as you’d think.The most common leaked password in 2014 was “123456” followed by “password” --- both topped the list the year before, too.

While numbers were as popular as ever as passwords, sports terms like “baseball” and “football” were used more often. Birthday years were common too (especially 1989,1990,1991 and 1992) and names like “Michael”, “Jennifer” and “Hunter” were also among the top 100 worst passwords of 2014.

Here’s a look at the top 10 worst passwords of the year:

1.123456 (Unchanged from 2013)

2. password (Unchanged)

3. 12345 (Up 17)

4. 12345678 (Down 1)

5. qwerty (Down 1)

6. 234567890 (Unchanged)

7. baseball (New)

8. dragon (New)

9. football (New)

10. monkey (New)

This year’s worst passwords are painfully weak, but what were once considered clever password strategies --- using symbols, capitalization, the number 3 in place of the letter “e” --- are old tricks.

It’s now recommended to pick a different password for each account you use --- you wouldn’t use the same key in all of your locks, and the same goes for passwords.

Companies like Facebook, Twitter and Apple are now trying to make hacking more difficult on their services by offering two-factor authentication(认证), which is basically like double locking your door at night. Each time you want to log in(登录）to that account, the company will send a code to your phone --- it changes after each login attempt, so hackers would have to be in physical possession of your smartphone to know the code.

60. What can we learn from this the text?

A. Hackers leaked much more passwords in 2014.

B. Symbols were among the top 10 worst passwords.

C. 123456 was the most common leaked password in both 2013 and 2014.

D. People are getting more experienced in picking their passwords.

61. How many passwords were ranked lower on 2014’s top 10 worst passwords list?

A. One B. Two C. Three D. Four

62. What is recommended in the text to have safer passwords?

A. Using long and strange passwords

B. Changing passwords regularly.

C. Replacing “e” by “3” when setting passwords.

D. Choosing different passwords for different accounts.

63. To fight against hacking, some companies _____________.

A. don’t accept weak passwords

B. double lock theirs doors at night.

C. combine the password with a code to prove one’s identity.

D. prevent hackers from stealing customers’ smartphones.

C

Chinese consumers' crazy appetite for luxury (奢侈的) goods and services appears unstoppable, with just 2 percent of the Chinese population responsible for one-third of the world's luxury items.

As China's economic miracle develops, the market opportunities for all sorts of luxury goods and services are increasing. Luxury consumption in China now extends ways beyond well-known car, clothing and jewelry brands. For example, the luxury jet market in China is the fastest-growing in the world, even outstripping that of the United States, with a market share of 25 percent. This trend appears to continue, with 20 to 30 percent growth expected in China, compared with only 2 to 3 percent in the US. But more importantly, China's luxury jet market growth represents a major development in the private consumption of luxury items.

China's high-quality red wine market also provides evidence of the growth in private consumption of luxury goods. In 2013, China became the largest market for red wine in the world, even overtaking French, with 1. 86 billion bottles consumed in China last year. Over the past five years, China's red wine consumption has grown 136 percent.

According to my ongoing consumer research in this area while working at the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing, public consumption of such expensive global luxury brands such as Prada and Armani is easily explained by the desire to"gain face" and publicly display social climbing through material possessions. On the other hand, it is"self-reward" that lies behind consumer motivation in this area. Chinese consumers who have experienced rapid financial and economic gains appear particularly prone(倾向) to the need to reward themselves for their success. But this has little to do with"gaining face" and impressing others and much more to do with the need for personal contentment.

Finally, the growth in private luxury consumption in China is set to continue in part due to the maturity（成熟） of the Chinese consumer and advancement of Chinese consumer culture generally.

64. What do you think the author would most probably be?
A. A news reporter. B. An accountant. C. A professor. D. A conductor.

65. The underlined word"outstripping" in Paragraph 2 probably means ______.
A. falling far behind of
B. going out of
C. going far ahead of
D. keeping pace with

66. What can we learn from paragraph 2 and 3 ?
A. China's luxury jet market growth is only 2% to 3%.
B. French was once the largest market for red wine in the world before 2013.
C. The luxury jet market in the US shares 25% of the jet consumption in the world.
D. China's red wine consumption has increased to 1.86 billion bottles since 2013.

67. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. Future Private Luxury Consumption in China
B. Chinese Appetite for Luxury Goods and Services
C. The Potential Luxury Jet Market in China
D. The Maturity of the Chinese Consumers
