For many TV fans, the Game of Thrones series is one of their favourites. Now, you can study everything about it at a world-famous university.
Harvard has announced a new course which will study George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire series, as well as its TV adaptation(改编作品), the Game of Thrones series. The course will compare real historical figures(人物) with the archetypes(原型) in Game of Thrones.
Racha Kirakosian is one of the professors who will teach the course. Students “made”her watch Game of Thrones, and she was quick to notice the similarities. According to her, Cersei Lannister shares many similarities with medieval(中世纪) German queen Kriemhild, the main character in a famous German medieval poem called Nibelungenlied.
In recent years, the number of students who major in medieval studies has reduced. The new course is hoped to change that. Somehow, it worked. Many students already Googled,\" How hard is it to get into Harvard?”

One day, I took an underground to work, I saw something that made me very sad. On the tube( underground in London), a mother kept looking at her phone screen and playing a game with her daughter sitting beside her. The little girl, about 5 years old, was talking to her mother about her day, repeating the next stop's name cheerfully, praising her mother's long nails--trying to catch her mother's attention. Her mother just nodded and answered \"Mm, hm\" with her eyes glued to the screen, busy passing the levels of the game. I watched the girl give a final try to at least get her mum to look at her, but it was no use. Then the little girl turned silent. It was a
shame the mother didn't notice that.
It broke my heart and got me wondering--what kind of game would make the mother forget she has the most beautiful thing in the world, the human she created, the person she loves with all her heart? What it meant when she couldn't look into her daughter's eyes and even stop to listen to the girl?
Some parents are almost like the teenagers, always on their phones with mindless games or going through Facebook. Perhaps parents have many things to deal with, but sometimes they are everything to their kids.
This is not a isolated example. I've seen too many such examples. I might not be a parent myself, and probably still have a long way before becoming one, but I know what I saw isn't right.
The scene used to be seen among teenagers very often when parents complained(抱怨) how their children were crazy about their mobile phones. Look how the situation has changed! The parents have become \"technology slaves\"(奴隶), that is to say, they can't control themselves while using mobile phones. Now some middle-aged parents hold the best iPhones or Samsung phones, which are probably the only two brands they know. They are playing the simple games with their expensive mobile phones. I'm uncertain whether to laugh or to cry. But my hope is that this storm passes.
52 Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The girl failed to catch her mother's attention.
B. The mother felt sorry after her daughter turned silent. C. The writer has much experience about being a parent.
D. Middle-aged parents know many brands of mobile phones.
53. The underlined word \"isolated\" in Paragraph 4 means____________ .
A. spreading fast B. happening once C. increasing quickly D. appearing suddenly 54. In the passage, the writer mainly wants to express_____________ . A. the worries that children are crazy about mobile phones
B. the happiness that parents are now able to use modern technology C. the sadness that the best smart phones cost parents too much money D. the hope that parents use new technology like smart phones properly 55. What's the best title of the passage?
A. Middle-aged parents B. A scene on the tube C. Technology slaves D. Mindless phone games

I have lived in France for nine years, but I cannot walk down the street without being recognized(认出) as an Englishman from 50 metres away before I open my mouth. Why?
In France, the quickest way to recognize an Englishman is that he'll be the one with the belly(肚子) and the shirt hanging out. Englishmen often wear shapeless black T-shirts, either too big or too small. However. Frenchmen are more formal in dressing. Their T-shirts have collars(领子). Shorts have buttons and zips rather than drawstrings(拉绳). Shoes look expensive. Englishmen think of lunchtime as 1 p.m. but for Frenchmen it is 12 o'clock, one hour earlier. This may explain the sad looks if an Englishman arrives at a local restaurant at 1:30 p.m. At that time most restaurants don't have waiters. All the cooking and serving may be done by the boss and his wife. When you arc shown to your table, just sit there and wait. Don't wave your hands to the waiters. Englishmen think guests should do something to make the waiters pay attention to them. But in France some bread and water will come first, then the waiters will take your order according to the rhythm(节奏) of the restaurant. Have enough patience!
Some 72 between Englishmen and Frenchmen Frenchmen Englishmen Dressing ● wear T-shirts with collars ● wear T-shirts which are shapeless ● wear shorts with buttons and zips ● wear shorts mostly with drawstrings ● wear shoes which 73 much ● wear shoes which may be cheap Lunch ● have lunch at noon ● have lunch at or after 1 pm ● follow the rhythm of the restaurant ● do something to attract the 74 attention Conclusion ● Englishmen wear 75 formal clothes than Frenchmen. ● Englishmen can’t be 76 enough for meals while Frenchmen can. 八、完成句子（本大题共6小题，每小题1.5分，共9分） 77. 我认为青少年的问题很值得关注。
I think the teenage problems ___________________________________. 78. 小红很有创意, 她想出一个好主意会有困难吗?

Growing Healthier and Happier
I’d like to talk about teenage lifestyles today. According to the survey, some teenagers don’t have healthy lifestyles. They spend too much time playing games and often stay up late. Some teenagers feel stressed. Some prefer chatting with friends to communicating with their families. The survey also shows that some teenagers hardly take any exercise. Some even have health problems. For example, many of them have poor eyesight. To solve these problems, I think teenagers should change their unhealthy lifestyles, such as giving up games and spending more time with families. I also think teenagers should do more exercise to keep fit. In this way, we can live a healthier and happier life.

The best way of learning a language is using it. The best way of learning English is talking in English as much as possible. Sometimes people will say things too quickly and you can’t understand them. But if you keep your sense of humour, you can always have a good laugh at the mistakes you make. Don’t be sad if people seem to be laughing at your mistakes. It’s better for people to laugh at your mistakes than to be angry with you. The most important thing for learning English is ：＂Don’t be afraid of making mistakes because everyone makes mistakes.＂
