Five years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said:”Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today - and 45minutes each day for the rest of the week.”
A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.
Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His
constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.
Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare,” But I‟m just not creative.”

Before leaving work, Steve Lee likes to use his cell phone to turn on his heat and air conditioner system at home.So by the time he gets through traffic into his front door, the temperature inside is perfect.You may wonder what a so-called smart home can do inside.
Lee works for a company called Smart home.com, testing and living with many of his company's home automation gadgets(自动化小配件), like this multifunction touch screen that controls devices around the house and even connects to the Internet traffic cameras.
“I have cameras, and they follow all the way down the freeway to work, ”said Lee with pride, “What's going on at home when you are away? No problem, install some wireless cameras and controllers and from any computer in the world with an Internet connection, you can watch your house.”
“You can check on the house, and I can look at the temperature.Believe it or not, if I want to turn on lights ahead of time, I can, ”added Lee.
We sat in Steve's California kitchen and with the right on the kitchen counter lights at his boss' house in Wisconsin.Steve did have permission to log on(登录).
“If you do know the password and you want to play a trick on your wife, you could turn lights on and off remotely.”
This new technology, which can automatically turn on water sprinklers when humidity is low, or turn off a pool pump when it is not in use, is no longer expensive.Several hundred dollars for a basic system is enough and it is not hard to install.
Sure the convenience is nice but many people who like the security advantages like making sure kids are safe with the help of camera monitors and bedside alerts.
“I can notice that maybe one of my children wakes up in the middle of the night once the light switch is turned on.”
What a smart home can't do is get you a snack and you have to leave the couch for that.www.shanpow.com_2016年全国高考英语试题。

Since the first Earth Day in 1970,Americans have gotten a lot “greener” toward the environment.“We didn't know at that time that there even was an environment,let alone that there was a problem with it,” says Bruce Anderson,president of Earth Day USA.
But what began as nothing important in public affairs has grown into a social movement.Business people,political leaders,university professors,and especially millions of grassroots Americans are taking part in the movement.“The understanding has increased many,many times,”says Gaylord Nelson,the former governor from Wisconsin,who thought up the first Earth Day.
According to US government reports,emissions(排放)from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 million tons.The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced from 40 to 9.Although serious problems still remain and need to be dealt with,the world is a safer and healthier place.A kind of “green thinking ” has become part of practices.
Great improvement has been achieved.In 1988 there were only 600 recycling programs;today in 1995 there are about 6,600.Advanced lights,motors,and building designs have helped save a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution.
Twentyfive years ago,there were hardly any education programs for environment.Today,it's hard to find a public school,university,or law school that does not have such a kind of program.“Until we do that,nothing else will change!” says Bruce Anderson.
5.According to Anderson,before 1970,Americans had little idea about________.
A.the social movement
B.recycling techniques
C.environmental problems
D.the importance of Earth Day
6.Where does the support for environmental protection mainly come from?

B.The business circle.
C.Government officials.
D.University professors.
7.What have Americans achieved in environmental protection?
A.They have cut car emissions to the lowest.
B.They have settled their environmental problems.
C.They have lowered their CO levels in forty cities.

One of the latest trends(趋势) in American childcare is Chinese au pairs.Au Pair in Stamford,Conn,for example,has got increasing numbers of requests for Chinese au pairs from zero to around
4,000 since 2004.And that's true all across the country.
“I thought it would be very useful for him to learn Chinese at an early age,” Joseph Stocke,the managing director of a company,says of his 2yearold son.“I would at least like to give him the chance to use the language in the future.” After only six months of being cared for by a 25yearold woman from China,the boy can already understand basic Chinese daily expressions,his dad says.
Li Drake,a Chinese native raising two children in Minnesota with an American husband,had another reason for looking for an au pair from China:She didn't want her children to miss out on their roots.“Because I am Chinese,my husband and I wanted the children to keep exposed to(接触)the language and culture.” she says.
“Staying with a native speaker is better for children than simply sitting in a classroom,” says Suzanne Flynn,a professor in language education of Children.“But parents must understand that just one year with an au pair is unlikely to produce wonders.Complete mastery demands continued learning until the age of 10 or 12.”
The popularity of au pairs from China has been strengthened by the increasing numbers of American parents who want their children to learn Chinese.It is expected that American demand for au pairs will continue to rise in the next few years.
9.What does that term “au pair” in the text mean?
A.A mother raising her children on her own.
B.A child learning a foreign language at home.
C.A professor in language education of children.
D.A young foreign woman taking care of children.
10.Li Drake has her children study Chinese because she wants them________.
A.to live in China some day
B.to speak the language at home
C.to catch up with other children
D.to learn about the Chinese culture
11.What can we infer from the text?
A.Learning Chinese is becoming popular in America.
B.Educated women do better in looking after children.
C.Chinese au pairs need to improve their English skills.
D.Children can learn a foreign language well in six months.

NEW YORK-Australian mining enterprise Clive Palmer on Tuesday unveiled(公布)blueprints for TitanicⅡ, a modern copy of the doomed ocean liner, although he didn't call the ship unsinkable any more.
The ship will largely recreate the design and decoration of the fabled original, with some modifications to keep it in line with current safety rules and shipbuilding practices, and the addition of some modern comforts such as air conditioning, Palmer said at a press conference in New York.
The three passenger classes, however, will be prevented from mingling(混杂), as in 1912, Palmer said.“I'm not too superstitious(迷信的).”Palmer said when asked whether recreating a ship best-known for sinking was tempting fate.
White Star Line, the operator of the original ship, had said the Titanic was designed to be unsinkable.About 1, 500 people died on Titanic's maiden voyage in 1912 from Southampton to
New York after the ship collided with an iceberg in the North Atlantic.
Palmer, who created the company Blue Star Line last year, refused to make a similar boast. “Anything will sink if you put a hole in it, ” Palmer said.“I think it would be very cavalier to say it.”
Unlike the original, TitanicⅡwill have more than enough space in its lifeboats for every person on board and will have additional escape staircases.Markku Kanerva, sales director at Deltamarin, the Finnish company designing the ship, said it would be the “safest cruise ship in the world”.
Palmer refused to answer questions about the project's cost.Although the Titanic was the world's largest ship in her time, she would be smaller than many of today's modern cruise ships.
“It's not about the money,” Palmer said.“I've got enough money for it.I think that's all that matters.”
Forbes estimated Palmer's net worth to be $795 million in 2012.He describes himself as a billionaire.
TitanicⅡwill be built by Chinese stateowned CSC Jinling Shipyard, which has already built four ore carriers for Palmer's mining business, he said.The contract to build TitanicⅡhas not yet been signed, Palmer said.
12.What can be inferred about TitanicⅡfrom the passage?
A.TitanicⅡwill have more space in its lifeboats than the Titanic.
B.TitanicⅡwill be the largest cruise ship in the world.
C.TitanicⅡwill allow different classes of passengers to mingle.
D.TitanicⅡwill be a real unsinkable cruise ship.
13.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A.1,500 people died on Titanic's maiden voyage in 1912.
B.The Titanic collided with an iceberg in the South Pacific.
C.The Titanic was equipped with air conditioning.
D.The Titanic was the world's largest ship at that time.
14.What's the author's purpose of writing the passage?
A.To tell us the story of the Titanic.
B.To tell us TitanicⅡwill cost a lot of money.
C.To tell us about the future Titanic.
D.To tell us a Chinese Shipyard will build TitanicⅡ.
15.What's the best title of the passage?
A.The Old Titanic
B.The Blueprints of TitanicⅡ
C.The Unsinkable TitanicⅡ
D.Clive Palmer-A Billionaire
