单选题Reading is considered to be a kind of conversation between the reader and the text. The reader puts questions, as it were, to the text and gets answers. In the light of these he puts further questions, and so on. For most of the time this conversation goes on below the level of consciousness. At times, however, we become aware of it. This is usually when we are running into difficulties, when mismatch is occurring between expectations and meaning. When successful matching is being experienced, our questioning of the text continues at the unconscious level. Different people converse with the text differently. Some stay very close to the words on the page; others take off imaginatively from the words, interpreting, criticizing, analyzing and examining. The former represents a kind of comprehension that is written in the text. The latter represents higher levels of comprehension, the balance between these is important, especially for advanced readers. There is another conversation that forms our point of view is equally important, and that is to do not with what is read but with how it is read. We call this a process conversation as opposed to a content conversation. It is concerned not with meaning but with the strategies we employ in reading. If we are advanced readers, our ability to hold a content conversation with a text is usually pretty well developed. Not so our ability to hold a process conversation. It is precisely this kind of conversation that is of importance when we are seeking to develop our reading to meet the new demands being placed on us by studying at a higher level.

单选题How fit are your teeth? Are you lazy about brushing them? Never fear: An inventor is on the case. An electric toothbrush senses how long and how well you brush, and it lets you track your performance on your phone.
The Kolibree toothbrush was exhibited at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week. It senses how it is moved and can send the information to an Android phone or iPhone via a Bluetooth wireless connection.
The toothbrush will be able to teach you to brush right (don"t forget the insides of the teeth!) and make sure you"re brushing long enough. "It"s kind of like having a dentist actually watch your brushing on a day-to-day basis," says Thomas Serval, the French inventor.
The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other applications on your phone, so developers could, for instance, create a game controlled by your toothbrush. You could score points for beating monsters among your teeth. "We try to make it smart but also fun," Several says.
Serval says he was inspired by his experience as a father. He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth. They said "yes", but Serval would find their toothbrush heads dry. He decided he needed a brush that really told him how well his children brushed.
The company says the Kolibree will go on sale this summer, for $ 99 to $199, developing on features. The U. S. is the first target market.
Serval says that one day, it"ll be possible to replace the brush on the handle with a brushing unit that also has a camera. The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush.
单选题{{B}}Passage Two{{/B}}
James Cleveland Owens was the son of a
farmer and the grandson of black slaves. His family moved to Cleveland when he
was 9. There, a school teacher asked the youth his name. "J.C.," he replied. She
thought he had said "Jesse", and he had a new name. Owens ran
his first race at age 13. After high school, he went to Ohio
StateUniversity. He had to work part-time so as to pay for his education. As a
second year student, in the Big Ten games in 1935, he set even more records than
he would in the Olympic Games a year later. A week before the
Big Ten meet, Owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. His back hurt so
much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of
the car that drove him to the meet. He refused to listen to the suggestions that
he give up and said he would try, event by event. He did try, and the results
are in the record book. The stage was set for Owens victory at
the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year, and his success would come to be
regarded as not only athletic but also political. Hitler did not
congratulate any of the African American winners. "It was all
right with me," he said years later. "I didn't go to Berlin to shake hands with
him, anyway." Having returned from Berlin, he received no
telephone calls from the president of his own country, either. In fact, he was
not honored by the United States until 1976, four years before his
death. Owens' Olympic victories made little difference to him.
He earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to
race against cars, trucks, motorcycles and dogs. "Sure, it
bothered me," he said later. "But at least it was an honest living. I had to
eat." In time, however, his gold medals changed his life. "They
have kept me alive over the years," he once said. "Time has stood still for me.
That golden moment dies hard."
