History of an Olympic Park BFree Haircuts on a Red ChairLast summer, Katie Steller was on her way to work.
19、 She stopped at a traffic light, where a man, in his 60s, looking out of luck, was sitting alone. She rolled down her window.“Hey!” she shouted. “ Im driving around giving free haircuts. Do you want one right now?”The man, missing a few teeth, paused and laughed. “Actually,” he said, “I have a funer
20、al (葬礼) to go to this week. I was really hoping to get a haircut.”Then, Steller unloaded a red chair from the car. The man, named Edward, took a seat. As Steller was cutting his curly graying hair, he told her about growing up in Mississippi, about moving to Minnesota, and how he still talked to his
21、 mom over phone every day.To date, Steller has given 30 or so such haircuts to people around the city. They are all living on the margins, and she is aware of the power of her work.“Its more than a haircut,” she says. “I want it to be a gateway, to show value and respect, but also to get to know peo
22、ple.”Steller knows that a haircut can change a life. One changed hers: As a teen, she suffered from ulcerative colitis (溃疡性结肠炎) that was so serious, her hair thinned severely. Seeing this, her mother arranged for Stellers first professional haircut.“To sit down and have somebody look at me and talk
23、to me like a person and not just an illness, it helped me feel cared about and less alone,” she says.After that, Steller knew she wanted to have her own hair salon so she could help people feel the way shed felt that day. Not long after finishing cosmetology school (美容学校) in 2016, she realized her d
24、ream. Two years later, she began what she now calls her Red Chair Project, reaching out to people on the streets.Steller said, “I cant fix their problems, but maybe I can help them feel less alone for a moment.” Steller listens to peoples stories of loss, addiction, and struggle to get back on their
25、 feet.An offshoot of the Red Chair Project is the Steller Kindness Project, in which people who commit acts of kindness are invited for a free makeover (美容) at Stellers salon. In exchange, they tell their stories, which Steller shares on her website. Her hope is that by reading about kind acts, othe
26、rs will be inspired to do their own.So far, its working. “You have no idea what people are going to do with the kindness that you give to them,” says Steller.24. Edward agreed to have a haircut by Steller because_.A. he wanted to talk with Steller about his lifeB. he wanted to look good for a specia
27、l occasionC. he was too old to go to a hair salon by himselfD. he was just waiting for a free haircut on the street25. In paragraph 5, the underlined words “living on the margins” can probably be replaced by _.A. living with little care and attentionB. living far from downtown areasC. living with se
28、rious illnessesD. living in untidy conditions26. What made Steller want to set up her own salon?A. Her excellent haircut skills.B. Her mothers encouragement.C. Her experience of a formal haircut.D. Her dream to offer people free haircuts.27. Whats the purpose of Steller Kindness Project?A. To make c
29、ontributions to charity.B. To encourage people to spread kindness.C. To reward kind people with free makeovers.D. To collect moving stories for Stellers website.C“Theres no place like home.” This English saying has much truth in it：the best place to be is surrounded by our treasured possessions and
30、our loved ones and with a roof over our head. And for many young adults, its the only affordable place to stay; somewhere where they can receive first-class service from mum and dad. But this comes at a price!In some countries, its quite traditional for people in their late teens and early 20s to li
31、ve at home with their parents, but in other places, flying the nest to start their own independent life is very desirable. But theres been a growing trend, in the UK at least, for young people to return home to live-or not to leave home at all. A survey by a price comparison website found that 18% o
32、f adult children in the UK said they were moving back home because of debt, compared with 8% last year. More young people had lost their jobs, and others couldnt afford their rent compared with the previous year. So, its easy to see why theyre increasingly becoming home birds. The BBCs Lucy Hooker e
33、xplains that many returning adult children enjoy home comforts. But for the hoteliers, thats mum and dad; the survey found the average cost to them has gone up sharply, and that they are sacrificing luxuries and holidays to look after their big kids. Emma Craig from Money supermarket says “theyre tr
34、ying to look after their children more. If your child comes home and you see them struggling financially, you feel more awkward asking them for rent or to contribute. It tugs on your heartstrings more.” With parents splashing out around 1, 886 on takeaway food, buying new furniture and upgrading the
35、ir Wi-Fi for the benefit of their offspring, its easy for the returning children to put their feet up and make themselves at home. Thats before they learn a home truth-that one day it might be their own kids wholl be checking into the hotel of mum and dad! 28. Which proverb might present the young B
36、ritishs living conditions? _ A. A lazy youth, an awful age. B. East or west, home is best. C. Two heads are better than one. D. Nothing comes wrong to a hungry man. 29. Which might be the reason for the increase of home birds? _ A. The popularity of living independently. B. Looking after their old p
37、arents. C. The increase of unemployment rate. D. Their parents financial offer. 30. Whats Emma Craigs attitude towards home birds? _ A. Doubtful. B. Uncertain. C. Objective. D. Understandable. 31. What is the last paragraph mainly about? _ A. Returning to live with parents comes at a price. B. Paren
38、ts are willing to receive their returning children. C. Flying the net is becoming popular at present. D. Home birds take it for granted to live with their parents. D Many Android and iPhone owners use Google services on their mobile phones or tablets. One of the most widely used location services is
39、 Google Maps. When someone uses Google Maps, information about times and locations is recorded and stored.Google also uses tracking tools with other services. Weather apps, for example, are designed to identify a users location to provide local weather information. Even some Google Internet searches
40、 can result in the collection of information about exactly where a person was when the search was made.Google says it collects the data to improve users localized experiences. But such practices have also raised privacy concerns. Privacy activists have called on Google and other major technology com
41、panies to make it easier for users to turn off location services if they do not want to be tracked. In some ways, Google is clear about asking permission to use location information. For instance, Google Maps will seek approval from a user to give the app access to locations. If a user agrees to let
42、 Google collect location information over time, Google Maps will show this history in a “timeline” that shows the persons daily movements.Google also has a “Location History” setting. The company says any user can turn off Location History at any time. And when Location History is turned off for a u
43、sers account, it is turned off for all equipment linked to that Google account. But the AP (Associated Press) found this does not appear to be true, finding that Google continued to save location history even if a user had turned off Location History.Google states users can stop the saving of all lo
44、cation markers by turning off another setting, however, which is not clearly identified as being connected to location tracking. The setting is called “Web and App Activity”. It stores different kinds of information from Google apps and websites to a users Google account.32. Why does the author ment
45、ion Weather apps?A. To advise people to stop using them.B. To stress Google services are widely used.C. To prove Google collects users data illegally.D. To show many apps can track a users location.33. What is the voice from the privacy activists?A. Users should use the Internet less.B. Google shoul
46、d stop tracking users.C. Google should respect users privacy.D. Google should turn off location services.34. What does the author indicate in paragraph 4?A. The Location History setting is difficult to find.B. The AP asks Google to remove Location History.C. Turning off Location History can avoid be
47、ing trackedD. What Google announces is hardly consistent with the fact.35. Which can best summarize the passage?A. Using Google puts you into a dangerous state.B. Google services urgently need to get improved.C. Google still tracks you with Location History off.D. Web and App Activity has endangered
