2.I remember doing the household chores to help my mother when I was nine.I hated changing the vacuum cleaner (真空吸塵器) bag and picking up things the machine did not suck up.Twenty years later,in 1978,with this lifelong dislike of the way the machine worked,I decided to make a bagless one.
Easier said than done,of course.I didn't realize that I would spend the next five years perfecting my design,a process that resulted in 5,127 different prototypes (樣機(jī)).By the time I made my 15th prototype,my third child was born.By 2,627,my wife and I were really counting our pennies.By 3,727,my wife was giving art lessons for some extra cash,and we were getting further and further into debt.These were tough times,but each failure brought me closer to solving the problem.
In the early 1980s,I started trying to get licensing agreements for my technology.The reality was very different,however.The major vacuum makers had built a business model based on the profits from bags and filters (濾網(wǎng)).No one would license my idea,not because it was a bad one,but because it was bad for business.But soon after,the companies that I had talked with started making machines like mine.I had to fight legal battles on both sides of the Atlantic to protect the patents on my vacuum cleaner.
I was still in financial difficulties until 1993,when my bank manager personally persuaded Lloyds Bank to lend me ﹩1 million.Then I was able to go into production.Within two years,the Dyson vacuum cleaner became a best-seller in Britain.
Today,I still embrace risk and the potential for failure as part of the process.Nothing beats the excitement of invention.
(1)What drove the author to make a bagless vacuum cleaner?
A.His willingness to help mom.
B.His curiosity about machines.
C.His trouble in doing family chores.
D.His discontent with existing cleaners.
(2)What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us?
A.The help from the author's wife.
B.The financial problems of the family.
C.The tough process of the new invention.
D.The procedures of making a bagless cleaner
(3)Why did the companies refuse to license the author's technology?
A.They considered it not good enough.
B.They thought they might suffer loss.
C.They faced legal problems themselves.
D.They had begun making such machines.
(4)What lesson may the author learn from the experience?
A.Potential is enormous.
B.Inventions make life easier.
C.Failure is the mother of success.
D.Actions speak louder than words.組卷:1引用:1難度:0.5 -
3.Marian Bechtel sits at West Palm Beach's Bar Louie counter by herself,quietly reading her e-book as she waits for her salad.What is she reading?None of your business!Lunch is Bechtel's "me" time.And like more Americans,she's not alone.
A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America.More than half (53 percent) have breakfast alone and nearly half (46 percent) have lunch by themselves.Only at dinnertime are we eating together anymore,74 percent,according to statistics from the report.
"I prefer to go out and be out.Alone,but together,you know?"Bechtel said,looking up from her book.Bechtel,who works in downtown West Palm Beach,has lunch with coworkers sometimes,but like many of us,too often works through lunch at her desk.A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder.She returns to work feeling energized. "Today,I just wanted some time to myself, "she said.
Just two seats over,Andrew Mazoleny,a local videographer,is finishing his lunch at the bar.He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he's on a first-name basis if he wants to have a little interaction (交流). "I reflect on how my day's gone and think about the rest of the week," he said. "It's a chance for self-reflection.You return to work recharged and with a plan."
That freedom to choose is one reason more people like to eat alone.There was a time when people may have felt awkward about asking for a table for one,but those days are over.Now,we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table. "It doesn't feel as alone as it may have before al the advances in technology," said Laurie Demerit,whose company provided the statistics for the report.

(2)Why does Bechtel prefer to go out for lunch?
A.To meet with her coworkers.
B.To catch up with her work.
C.To have some time on her own.

A.He makes videos for the bar.
B.He's fond of the food at the bar.
C.He interviews customers at the bar.
D.He's familiar with the barkeeper.

A.The trend of having meals alone.
B.The importance of self-reflection.

4.Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts.The microorganisms (微生物) from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station,so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week.How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem?It's turning to a bunch of high school kids.But not just any kids.It is depending on NASA HUNCH high school class,like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport,New York.
HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers.For the past two years,Gordon's students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity,and they think they're close to a solution (解決方案). "We don't give the students any breaks.They have to do it just like NASA engineers," says Florence Gold,a project manager.
"There are no tests," Gordon says. "There is no graded homework.There almost are no grades,other than 'Are you working towards your goal?' Basically,it's 'I've got to produce this product and then,at the end of year,present it to NASA.' Engineers come and really do an in-person review,and…it's not a very nice thing at times.It's a hard business review of your product."
Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact (影響) on college admissions and practical life skills. "These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back.I don't teach." And that annoying bacteria?Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem,readying a workable solution to test in space.
(1)What do we know about the bacteria in the International Space Station?
A.They are hard to get rid of.
B.They lead to air pollution.
C.They appear different forms.
D.They damage the instruments.
(2)What is the purpose of the HUNCH program?
A.To strengthen teacher-student relationships.
B.To sharpen students' communication skills.
C.To allow students to experience zero gravity.
D.To link space technology with school education.
(3)What do the NASA engineers do for the students in the program?
A.Check their product.
B.Guide project designs.
C.Adjust work schedules.
D.Grade their homework.
(4)What is the best title for the text?
A.NASA:The Home of Astronauts.
B.Space:The Final Homework Frontier.
C.Nature:An Outdoor Classroom.
D.HUNCH:A College Admission Reform.組卷:1引用:1難度:0.5
