• 11．4 Apps to Enhance Distance Learning
      Distance learning has become the new form of education since schools closed，and teachers have adapted – with the help of some truly amazing online applications.
      Google Classroom
      This popular application allows teachers to create online forums（論壇） to share courses，news，or lessons as well as a platform to assign，collect，and give feedback on student work.I've used Google Classroom for years，and it has become the cornerstone of my classroom throughout distance learning.
      Google Forms
      This application is often used to gather information in a variety of contexts（surveys，tests，etc.）.Its test feature can be enabled to block users from opening other windows.It also offers auto-grading for multiple-choice tests.It has become a daily application in my classes during distance learning.I use it for pre-assessments，tests，and surveys.
      Flipgrid
      Flipgrid is a free online application that allows students and teachers to record short online videos.Teachers can easily create accounts and then within accounts create "classrooms." From there，teachers can create posts for students to respond to via（通過） short videos.
      Google Meet
      Google Meet is an online meeting platform where teachers can share their screens with all participants to see as well as record the meeting.I've recorded all of my daily lessons and then posted the recordings to Google Classroom at the request of my students.This is a practice I'd like to continue even after distance learning as students really like the option to return to a recording of the day's lesson to review it at their own pace.

• 12．What do you think of cats？Some people think very lovely．But not all people love cats．Compared with dogs，cats seem to be very lazy and unfriendly．Besides，cats are not known for acts of selfishness （自私）．But maybe we're wrong about them．Don't believe it？Then meet Pippa，a very unusual cat．
     The black-and-white cat was left in a box outside a shop and taken by the British RSPCA to the Jansa family in Whitstable，Kent．They really loved her character （性格） and decided to adopt （收養(yǎng)） it，but they never guessed she'd become a lifesaver．
     Eight-year-old Mia Jansa had diabetes and had become good at testing her blood during the day，as well as having something to eat or drink to bring her blood sugar levels back．But the danger was at night．Mia could easily experience hypoglycemic （低血糖癥的） situations when she was asleep，which could cause even death．
     Soon after she was adopted，Pippa went into Mia's bedroom in the middle of the night and woke her up．When the child tested her blood sugar levels，she found they were dangerously low．Ever since，Pippa always visits Mia at night．If she can't get her to wake up，she raises the alarm．
     "Pippa does this of her own accord，"says Mia's mother Laura．"We don't make a request for caring because we don't want to encourage wrong alarms．She gets plenty of hugs．It gives me peace of mind and I know someone else is keeping an eye on Mia．"
     Now the family is so happy that they've chosen to adopt it in the first place．
  
  （1）Why did the family decide to adopt the cat？

  
  A．Because they considered it as a lifesaver．
  B．Because her character interested them．
  C．Because they really loved her looks．
  D．Because Mia Jansa needed help．
  （2）What problem did Mia Jansa face？

  
  A．She was bad at testing her blood．
  B．She might suffer death in the daytime．
  C．She might be in danger while asleep at night．
  D．She couldn't let her blood sugar levels return to normal．
  （3）For what does Pippa visit Mia at night？

  
  A．To see if her blood sugar levels are normal．
  B．To make her laugh when she's lonely．
  C．To make sure that she is safe．
  D．To play with the alarm．

• 13．Daydreaming was viewed as a waste of time．Or it was considered an unhealthy escape from real life and its duties．Daydreaming has always had a bad reputation，but now scientific research has showed that daydreaming may actually improve your mental health and creativity．It can even help you achieve your desired goals．
     Now some people are taking a fresh look at daydreaming．Some think it may be a very healthy thing to do．Researchers are finding daydreaming，they tell us，is a good means of relaxation．But its benefits go beyond this．A number of psychologists have conducted experiments and have reached some surprising conclusions．
     Dr．Joan T.Freyberg has concluded that daydreaming contributes to intellectual growth．It also improves concentration，attention span，and the ability to get along with others，she says．In an experiment with school children，the same researcher found that daydreaming led the children to pay more attention to details．They had more happy feelings．They worked together better．Another researcher reported that daydreaming seemed to produce improved self-control and creative abilities．
     But that's only part of the story．The most remarkable thing about daydreaming may be its usefulness in shaping our future lives as we want them to be．Industrialist Henry J．Kaiser believed that much of his success was due to the positive use of daydreaming．He maintained that" you can imagine your future．" Florence Nightingale dreamed of becoming a nurse．The young Thomas Edison pictured himself as an inventor．For these famous achievers，it appears that their daydreams came true．
     Of course daydreaming is no substitute（代替者）for hard work．You have to work hard to develop skills．Daydreaming alone can't turn you into your heart's desire．But in combination with the more usual methods of self-development，it might make a critical difference．And who knows：You might see your own daydreams come true．
  
  （1）From the scientific research，a few minutes' daydreaming will help you

  ．
  A．relieve stress effectively
  B．improve grades
  C．escape from real life and duties
  D．gain a positive attitudes towards exams
  （2）According to Dr．Joan T．Freyberg，daydreaming can

  ．
  A．reduce failure in examinations

  D．benefit improvement of concentration
  （3）What does "the story" in Paragraph 4 refer to？

  
  A．the attention．
  B．the conclusion．
  C．the contribution．
  D．the concentration．
  （4）Nightingale and Edison are examples to explain that daydreaming probably

  ．
