It was my twelfth year f dancing, and I thught it wuld end up like any ther year: stuck in emptiness, frgtten and withut the belief f any teacher r friend that I really had the ptential t achieve greatness.
Hwever, I met Shanda, a talented chrcgrapher (编舞者). She influenced me t wrk t the best f my ability, pushed me t keep ging when I wanted t quit, encuraged me and shwed me the imprtance f curage. Thrughut ur hard wrk, nt nly did my ability t dance grw, but my friendship with Shanda grew as well.
With the end f the year came ur shw time. As I walked backstage and saw many ther dancers, I hped fr a gd perfrmance that wuld prve my imprvement. I waited anxiusly fr my turn. Finally, after what seemed like days, the ludspeaker annunced my name. Butterflies filling my stmach, I tk trembling steps nt the big lighted stage. But, with the determinatin t succeed and eagerness t live up t Shanda’s expectatins fr me, I began t dance. All my trubles and nerves went away as I danced my whle heart ut.
As I walked up t the judge t receive my first place shining, gld trphy (奖杯), I realized that dance is nt abut becming the best. It was abut lving dance fr dance itself, a getaway frm all my prblems in the wrld. Shanda shwed me that yu culd let everything g and just d what yu feel at that mment.

Part f the reasn American shppers are s attracted t whlesale shpping is their belief that it nt nly prevents waste but can save time and mney, prviding mre value fr the dllar. Hwever, recent research suggests that the ppsite may be true.
Victria Lign, an expert n cnsumer sciences, studied fd purchasing habits f cnsumers and fund that peple tended t buy t much fd and waste mre f it than they realized. “The prblem is that peple are nt shpping frequently enugh,” Lign said, “Peple are very price sensitive at the grcery stre, but tend t fail t ntice the cst f unused and wasted fd at hme.”
A cmmn practice is t visit different stres fr different items n a grcery list, “But peple tend t verbuy at each f the places,” Lign said. “Peple are nt planning fr the next day, but planning fr the next week r tw.”
“In thery, planning a week r mre in advance sunds ideal. But given the reality f many peple’s lives, this is challenging t d well,” Lign said. “All f ur fd prmtins are designed t get peple t buy mre. We believe it’s cheaper if we buy mre nw, but we rarely take int accunt hw much we thrw ut in the end.”
Lign nted shifts in the grcery industry that appear prmising t help custmers reduce fd waste. Examples include cst-effective delivery services such as Amazn Fresh and Ggle Express, which allw cnsumers t purchase fd items when they want t cnsume them, als reducing their need t frequent s many different stres. Hwever, the study resulted in anther trubling finding: The majrity f peple invlved in the study had n idea that they were buying t much and wasting s much.
“When yu read advice abut reducing waste, it usually centers n what peple d after the fd is purchased,” Lign said. “But mre imprtantly, shp n a mre frequent basis, s that yu are nly buying what yu are ging t cnsume in the shrt term.”
8. What d peple ften ignre when buying fd in large quantities?
A. Hw gd the fd is.B. Hw much will be wasted.
C. Hw much the fd csts.D. Hw ften they shuld shp.
9. What is the authr’s attitude twards meal planning fr the next tw weeks?
A. It is wrth trying.B. It is nt practical.
C. It takes great effrt.D. It is nt gd fr health.
10. What is the advantage f Amazn Fresh and Ggle Express?
A. Fd prices are lwered.B. Fd waste is prevented.
C. Fd cnsumptin is reduced.D. Fd purchasing can be dne at hme.
11. What can be the best title fr the passage?
A. Shp Mre, Buy LessB. Shp Wisely, Eat Wisely
C. Cnsume Mre, Waste LessD. The Mre Yu Shp, the Mre Yu Waste

Writers f science fictin ften feel mre prescient (预知的) than thers. Whether it’s the architectural and scial dystpias f J.G. Ballard’s nvels, r the wrld f E.M. Frster’s The Machine Stps, the genre is full f prescient writers dealing with ever mre familiar issues.
Out f all such writers, few seem mre likely t predict ur times than authr Philip K. Dick, wh died 42 years ag. In a remarkably 30-year perid f wrk, Dick authred 44 nvels and cuntless shrt stries, adaptatins f which redefined science fictin n screen — in particular Ridley Sctt’s Blade Runner, based n Dick’s stry D Andrids Dream f Electric Sheep? and Paul Verheven’s Ttal Recall, which tk his 1966 shrt stry We Can Remember It fr Yu Whlesale as its surce material.
Dick had a astnishing ability t predict what wuld happen in mdern wrld. Celebrated science-fictin and fantasy authr Stan Nichlls suggested Dick’s wrk was prescient because it explred the future thrugh the then-present. “His stries fresaw the availability f the Internet, virtual reality, facial recgnitin sftware, driverless cars and 3D printing,” Nichlls said — while als pinting ut that “it’s a misinterpretatin that predictin is the primary purpse f science fictin.” The genre’s hit rate is actually nt very gd in that respect. Like all the best science fictin, his stries weren’t really abut the future; they were abut the here and nw.”
Putting aside Dick’s ability t fresee the future we nw take fr granted, his mst disturbing visin was f the wrld itself ultimately being a simulatin (模拟). Dick’s reality was already a delicate and cmplex ne. In many f his later bks, the idea f reality being a façade (假象) grew as a dminant theme. “Dick argued we were existing in a simulatin,” Nichlls suggested.
Whether his visins were true, as he believed, a prduct f small prblems in the simulatin r his fading mental health, ne thing is fr certain: the wrld in which the wrk f Philip K. Dick is celebrated tday feels ever clser t the nes imagined by this mst unique and exceptinal f writer.
12. Hw des the authr explain the tpic in Paragraph 1?
A. By listing examples.B. By using metaphrs.
C. By making a cmparisn.D. By intrducing an cncept.
13. What culd be inferred frm Paragraph 2?
A. Dick can predict the future precisely.
B. Sme directrs like t adapt Dick’s nvels int mvies.
C. Dick’s nvels redefined what science fictin was abut.
D. N ne wrte mre science fictin nvels f ur times than Dick.
14. A universal feature f all the best science fictin stries is that they _______.
A. have a high hit rateB. are gd at predicting
C. fcus n the presentD. explre the distant future
15. What des the authr want t cnvey in the last paragraph?
A Philip K. Dick had a great impact n science.
B. Philip K. Dick had traveled int the future then.
C. Peple dn’t agree t Philip K. Dick’s predictin.
D. The wrld in Philip K. Dick’s wrks is similar t tday’s wrld.

It s happened that ne mrning I bught a newspaper and read the advertisement abut an expeditin t the Suth Ple with the great Sir Ernest Shackletn—this was the adventure that I had been dreaming f. Overjyed, I applied t jin the expeditin, nly t be turned dwn by Shackletn. But I was s enthusiastic that I secretly went abard his ship and hid in a small cupbard. Unfrtunately, three days later I was discvered. Since Shackletn did nt want t turn back, he ffered me a jb and assigned me t be a steward serving meals fr twenty-eight men.
The jurney had nt been easy. Appraching Antarctica, we gt stuck in the ice and saw the ship get crushed by the ice. When the ship sank, ur hearts sank with it. Befre we abandned the ship, Shackletn calmly called us tgether and tld us t rescue ur mst essential supplies. We were nt allwed t take mst f ur persnal belngings, and Shackletn himself threw away all his gld. We had t camp n the ice f Elephant Island and managed t survive. But spring was cming, and the ice wuld sn begin t melt.
We had been struggling fr days, but things n Elephant Island were ging frm bad t wrse. We had t be crwded tgether under ne f ur bats n the rcky shre f this miserable place. It was cld and windy, and the island had n plants. Smetimes we were nly able t catch a seal r a penguin t eat. Otherwise, there was n fd. Sn after we arrived, Shackletn left us t find help n Suth Gergia Island, 1,320 kilmetres away—the vyage was t dangerus and difficult fr all f us t make it in ur small bats. If Shackletn failed, we wuldn’t have any hpe f rescue as n ne else knew that we were here. We watched wrried and hpefully as Shackletn and the bat sailed away frm Elephant Island.
