In Jinzhong, Shanxi Province, there is a group of people who are busy drawing maps around. They are not workers on geography, but dispatchers(调度员) on Emergency(急救) Center of the city.
Since 2007, the dispatchers in the center have been drawing maps of the local areas.
\"A dispatcher's job is counted in seconds,\" says Liang Ruimei, a dispatcher in the center. She has been working in the center since it started in 2007. \"We must answer the phone in 3 seconds, get clear information about the patient in 60 seconds and dispatch(调度) emergency medical workers in 3 minutes at most. If we save one second, the patient may have a better chance to live.\"
Although nowadays the center has electronic maps, the dispatchers still walk through the streets to draw maps by hand.
After many years' hard work, the dispatchers keep every building and street of the city in mind. They even know whether or not a car can enter the gate of a building.

Bike-sharing is new for short journeys in cities. It is a good choice for the big cities to develop healthily.
A report found that shared bikes started the nation's love for bikes again. The love is not only among young people born in the 1980s and 2000s, but also among people over sixty. Now they are choosing bikes instead of cars to make short journeys in cities. If you have a smart phone, the nearest bike equipped with GPS will be easily found through a certain app on your phone. It can also be unlocked through the app and left anywhere in public for the next user. The cost of riding depends on the time that you spend. Normally, every hour you ride, you just need to pay one yuan.
It is said that bike-sharing will help improve the cities' environment. It not only helps solve the traffic problems, but also will help to make more use of space in cities. Take Beijing as an example. If more people choose shared bikes, an area of five Bird's Nest Stadiums (体育场)will be saved. At the same time, there are some problems with shared bikes that people need to solve properly. For example, some people park the bikes in their home; some break up the bikes on purpose; and others even throw them into the river. Facing all these problems, everyone should raise their own awareness of protecting the bikes. We should not only enjoy them, but also value them and put them to good use.

The thing that shared bikes are equipped with The cost of a one-hour riding on shared bikes The place that you can leave shared bikes ________. ________. ________. The number of problems mentioned in the passage ________. 【答案】 People over sixty.;GPS.;One yuan.;Anywhere in public.;3 / Three.

What can you do when someone hurts you? Most people may be angry or even fight with the one who hurts him or her. But it's not a good idea. The best way is to forgive him or her. Although it is not easy for us to forgive people who hurt us, it is possible. \"Forgiveness makes people hopeful. And it is good for our health,\" says Fredric, Ph. D. the writer of the book called Forgive for God.
But how can we forgive others?
First, think of something beautiful and try to get yourself happy.
Second, don't wait for others to say sorry to you. If some people hurt you, they won't say sorry to you. They may just want to hurt you or they just don't see things the same way.
Third, try to see things in others' shoes. You can write a letter to yourself from the offender's (冒犯者)point. That can make you understand others better and make yourself happier. At last, don't forget to forgive yourself. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge(挑战). And it also makes you more confident.

10.阅读理解
Laurence Kim was born in Salt Lake City, Utah, on November 11, 1951. He was not like other children when he was young. A medical scan (扫描) showed that the two halves of his brain were not connected in the usual way. He developed an amazing memory. He started to read when he was two. He remembered everything he had read.
To read more quickly, he read the left page with his left eye and the right page with his right eye. By reading the two pages at the same time, ⑴看完一本书花他不到一小时的时间。By the age of 30, he had memorized around 12,000 books.
However, he did not develop so well in other areas. ⑵He could not walk before four years old, and he had problems putting on his clothes and shoes. His social skills were poor, and he was extremely sensitive (敏感的) about new people. In 1984, Peek and his father met Hollywood movie writer Barry Morrow. Morrow was fascinated by Peek and began to write a new play about Peek's experiences. The movie Rain Man won an Oscar for Best Picture in 1988. ⑶This changed Peek's life. ⑷He got used to being the center of attention. He became more self-confident. He appeared on TV and traveled around the country with his father to develop awareness(意识) of his condition.
Peek was not only an amazing man but also a real Rain Man. Sadly, Peek died of a heart attack in 2009.
(1)将⑴处翻译成英文。 (2)将⑵处改为复合句。 (3)写出⑶处\"this\"指代的内容。 (4)将⑷处翻译成中文。 (5)找出该文段的中心句。
【答案】 (1)It took him less than an hour to read a book. / It took him less than an hour to finish reading a book. / He spent less than an hour reading a book.
(2)He could not walk before he was four (years old).
(3)The movie Rain Man won an Oscar for Best Picture( in 1988).
(4)他习惯了成为关注的焦点/中心。
(5)Peek was not only an amazing man but also a real Rain Man. 【解析】【分析】主要讲了有读书天赋的Laurence Kim。
(1)花费某人多长时间做某事用It takes(took)sb. sometime to do sth.或者sb. spend(spent)+时间+doing sth.。时态是一般过去时,所以用过去式took或者spent,第一个句子中sb.用宾格him,作宾语,第二个句子sb.用主格he,做主语。不到一小时用less than an hour,看完一本书用finish reading a book或者是read a book,故填It took him less than an hour to read a book./It took him less than an hour to finish reading a book. /He spent less than an hour reading a book.。
(2)before在原文中是介词,可以变为连词,即before+句子,即before+主语+谓语,主语是he,谓语是was four,故填He could not walk before he was four (years old).。 (3)根据前句The movie Rain Man won an Oscar for Best Picture in 1988.可知电影《钢铁侠》 赢得奥斯卡奖改变了Peek的一生,故填The movie Rain Man won an Oscar for Best Picture in 1988.。
(4)he意思是他;got used to doing sth.习惯于做某事,being the center of attention成为关注的中心,故填他习惯了成为关注的焦点/中心。
(5)根据Peek was not only an amazing man but also a real Rain Man.可知是中心句,故填Peek was not only an amazing man but also a real Rain Man.。
