Doctors in hospital emergency rooms often see accidental poisonings. A frightened parent arrives with a child who swallowed a cleaning liquid. Or perhaps the harmful substance is a medicine. Or it might be a product meant to kill insects. These are common causes of accidental poisonings.

In cases like this, seek medical help as soon as possible. Save the container of whatever caused the poisoning. And look for information about anything that stops the effects of the poison in the container. Save anything expelled from the mouth of the victim. That way, doctors can examine it.

Millions of people know how to give abdominal thrusts (腹部按压) to save a person choking on something trapped in the throat. The American Red Cross says a rescuer should first hit the person on the back five times between the shoulder bones. If the airway is still blocked, the Red Cross suggests pushing hard five times on the victim’s abdomen. You can do these abdominal thrusts by getting directly behind a sitting or standing person.

The Mayo Clinic’s health centers suggest several steps if bleeding is severe. First, if possible, remove dirt from the wound and press it with a clean cloth or piece of clothing. In the past, people were advised to stop severe bleeding with a tourniquet (止血带). But experts now say tourniquets are dangerous because they can crush (压坏) blood passages and nerves. If a wound seems infected, let the victim rest. Physical activity can spread the Infection. Treat the wound with a mixture of salt and water until medical Help arrives.

To learn more about first aid, ask a hospital or an organization like the Red Cross or Red Crescent Society for information. Training may be offered in your area.

If you know first aid methods, you can be calmer and more helpful in case of emergency.

4．Which of the following is NOT the cause of accidental poisonings according to the passage?

A．A harmful medicine.    B．An insect-killing chemical.

C．A cleaning liquid.    D．Poisonous insects.

5．The underlined word “expelled” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “________”.

A．coming out    B．taking up

C．going away    D．getting down

6．From the passage, we can know ________.

A．now people still use a tourniquet to stop bleeding

B．the container of poison is not helpful to doctors

C．rest can do good to an infected wound

D．abdominal thrusts are for the unconscious

7．Where can you learn more about first aid according to the passage?

A．A hospital or the Red Cross.    B．A hospital or a magazine.

C．The Red Cross or a patient.    D．The Red Crescent Society or a book.

Several Jobs That Will Be Automated By Artificial Intelligence(AI) And Robots

Translator

Image recognition software and voice recognition software are bringing some major advances to language translation．Applications like Google’s Word Lens can translate words from signs and documents in real time and there are a lot of translation apps that allow you to type in a word or phrase and will translate it for you．

Some will even speak the phrase for you and raw word-to-word translation will be fully automated soon．

Fast food workers

Automated ordering booths have already made their way into a few McDonald’s restaurants around the world，and cooking positions could be removed next．The booths probably can’t handle customer service problems well，so televideo systems could bring in an office employee to deal with complaints．

Field technician

New advances in the Internet of Things could make this work obsolete.

Low-cost sensors combined with high availability cellular／satellite communications and cloud technology are being started to automate and alarm these sites, and can be checked and maintained from a desktop or mobile device.

Sales representative

But, e-commerce is changing how we make purchasing decisions, especially those where there isn’t much differentiation among the major competitors.

If you’re selling a high-differentiation product and／or a high-price, low-volume product you have some job security, but if you’re selling a high-volume, low-differentiation product, you better start polishing your resume, said Doug Camplejohn, CEO of Fliptop. “These kind of product sales are all moving online.”

8．What can Google’s Word Lens do?

A．Translate by image and voice recognition software.

B．Speak the phrase or word for you.

C．Make real-time translation.

D．Allow you to type in a word or phrase.

9．What can we infer from the second part?

A．All the restaurants own automated ordering booths.

B．Service problems can’t be handled automatically.

C．Cooks will not be automated by AI and robots.

D．Customers will have no complaints because of AI．

10．What does the underlined word“obsolete”mean in Part 3?

A．Abandoned.    B．Welcome.

C．Forbidden.    D．Efficient.

11．What does the author mean by“you better start polishing your resume” in the last paragraph?

A．You must value your present work.

B．You have some job security.

C．Your resume needs correcting further.

D．You should consider changing the job.

 For art, the year 2115 will be one full of events. In May of that year in Berlin, the philosopher-artist Jonathon Keats' "century cameras'' — cameras with a 100-year-long exposure （曝光）time — will be brought back from hiding places around the city to have their results developed and exhibited Six months after that, the Future Library in Oslo, Norway, will open its doors for the first time, presenting 100 books printed on the wood of trees planted in the distant past of 2015.

As Katie Paterson, the creator of the Future Library, puts it: **Future Library is an artwork for future generations/' These projects, more than a century in the making, are part of a new wave of "slow art'' intended to push viewers and participants to think beyond their own lifetimes. They aim to challenge today's short-term thinking and the brief attention spans of modem consumers, forcing people into considering works more deliberately. In their way, too, they are fighting against modem culture — not just regarding money, but also the way in which artistic worth is measured by attention.

In a similar fashion, every April on Slow Art Day, visitors are encouraged to stare at five works of art for 10 minutes at a time — a tough task for the average museum visitor, who typically spends less than 30 seconds on each piece of art.

Like the Future Library, the century cameras are very much a project for cities, since it's in cities that time runs fastest and the pace of life is fastest. "Since I started living in a city, I've somehow been quite disconnected/' Anne Beate Hovind, the Future Library project manager, who described how working on the library drew her back to the pace of life she knew when she was growing up on a farm in her youth, told the Atlantic magazine.

12．What will NOT happen in2115 according to the first paragraph?

A．A camera which was produced 100 years ago will be exhibited.

B．The Future Library will be open to the public for the first time.

C．Photos with a 100-year exposure time will be developed and exhibited.

D．Books printed on the wood of trees planted in 2015 will be displayed.

13．What can we learn about people's attitude towards works of art nowadays?

A．They spend little time on works.

B．They pay more attention to works.

C．They spend much money on works.

D．They stare at works for 10 minutes at a time.

14．What is the purpose of the wave of slow art?

A．To advocate creating works of art slowly.

B．To protect works of art from being damaged.

C．To promote works of art for modern culture.

D．To encourage people to consider works more deliberately.

15．How does Anne Beate Hovind feel about the city life?

A．It's discouraging. B．It's awful.

C．It's busy. D．It's developed.

Are you suffering from FOMO—that is, Fear Of Missing Out? Research shows that a growing number of young people are with worrying reasons for their sleep and schoolwork.

16． You aren’t able to do your best unless you sleep well. Most experts agree that the optimum（最适宜）number of hours is eight, and this has been accepted as common sense for as long as I can remember. However, I was young once and know most of you get much less sleep than that.

I read an interesting article in a teachers’ magazine recently.17． Worryingly, the results showed that teenagers are facing a new problem. They may go to bed and get up at appropriate times, but a growing number are waking up in the middle of the night, not to use the bathroom or have a snack, but because of FOMO.

According to the article, the number of students waking up during the night to check social media is growing. Afraid of missing a comment or opportunity to take part in a chat, teenagers are waking at all times of the night, going online and getting involved.18．

Experts are worried about this growing trend and the report reveals some worrying statistics: 23% of 12 to 15-year-olds wake up nearly every night to use social media.19． One in third of the students are constantly tired and unable to function to their full capacity.

So I’d like to ask you to be responsible when it comes to social media. Switch off your devices at night. The world won’t end and your social media will be waiting to greet you in the morning!20．.

A．But things are getting out of hand.

B．I give you my word that you won’t have missed anything important.

C．Another 15% wake up at night once a week for the same reason.

D．They did a study of 848 students in Wales.

E.  FOMO is the fear that everyone else is having more fun and more excitement than you.

F.  All happens when they should be sound asleep.

G.  Everybody knows how important it is for students to get a good night’s sleep every night.

After about an hour of sunbathing, she heard someone come up to the roof. It is the manager of the hotel. He said, "Excuse me, Miss, but do you mind sunbathe somewhere else?"
