This program brings people together to pick up litter along the roads. We think it would be a great idea for all students in our school to join the program and
3、 adopt a highway.Adopting a highway is not like adopting a pet. When a highway is adopted, only part of the highway is cared for by a group of people. The group agrees to work every week to keep its part of the highway clean. Each group gets its own sign that has the name of the group printed on it.
4、 The sign is put up at the side of the road. This sign lets drivers know who is keeping that area of the road clean.The Adopt-a-Highway Program is a great way for people to help their environment look nicer. Also, the government does not have to send out as many road workers. This saves money. Final
5、ly, people may try harder to keep roads clean if they see people, especially teenagers like us, cleaning them up. We will need helpers to care for our adopted highway. If you want to feel great and keep our roads clean,please come with your parents to the meeting next week. We will meet in Mrs. Lake
6、 room on Wednesday at 6:00 P.M. At the meeting, we will talk about which roads are the dirtiest as a result of peoples unkind acts. Then we ll try to pick an area to adopt and clean.

10、udy found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep, cigarettes and alcohol. The main goal of technology companies is to get people to spend more money and time on their products, not to actually improve our quality of life.They have successfully crea
11、ted a cultural disease.Consumers willingly give up their freedom, money and time to catch up on the latest information, to keep pace with their peers or to appear modern.I see people trapped in a pathological(病态的)relationship with time-sucking technology, where they serve technology more than techno

18、g story of how the Statue of Liberty(自由女神像) came to be. The Statue of Libertys rough history is explored in “Libertys Torch”. Frederic Auguste Bartholdi is an all-but-forgotten(几乎被遗忘的) figure in American history. He was, however, responsible for one of the most enduring symbols of the United States:
19、 the Statue of Liberty. A Frenchman from Alsace, he designed and built the Statue of Liberty which stood on Bedloes Island in New York Harbor. How this statue came to be is the fascinating subject of Elizabeth Michells new book “Libertys Torch”. The power of Mitchells narrative is convincing(令人信服的).
20、 We recognize the Statue of Liberty now as a symbol of hope and opportunity for a nation of immigrants. At the time, though, people could not see thatnor did they even imagine that. Instead, the construction of the statue was born of one mans desire to set up a great monument. For this reason, perha
21、ps, “Libertys Torch” relies on Bartholdi as the connecting thread. Bartholdi went to Egypt to make photographic copies of the main monuments. On the boat, Bartholdi met and began a lifelong relationship with Ferdinand de Lesseps, the man who would build the Suez Canal. Maybe it was this friendship,
22、or maybe it was seeing Egypts huge monuments, but finally the trip inspired Bartholdis dream to create the largest statue ever built. Failure to bring this to completion in Egypt, followed by his exile (流放) from Paris, led Bartholdi to sail to America. By explaining the Statue of Libertys hard histo
23、ry and showing Bartholdis brave spirit, Mitchell has done a great service.9. It can be inferred from the text that _.A.

26、t, these technologies are still expensive, though.Researchers from Georgia Tech say that they have come up with a low-cost device(装置) that gets around this problem: a smart keyboard. This smart keyboard precisely measures the cadence(节奏) with which one types and the pressure fingers apply to each ke
27、y. The keyboard could offer a strong layer of security by analyzing things like the force of a users typing and the time between key presses. These patterns are unique to each person. Thus, the keyboard can determine peoples identities, and by extension, whether they should be given access to the co

Everybody uses a keyboard and everybody types differently.In a study describing the technology, the researchers had 100 volunteers typ
