Visit at Night
Riding up the Eiffel Tower at night and looking out over the streets of Paris, you’ll see why Paris is known as the “City of Light”. At street level,the spotlights on the top of the Tower zoom across the Paris skyline, and the reflections of the Tower in the Seine are sights not to be missed.

When Mrs. Gabica went out of the teaching building after finishing the last class in her career, she saw a lot of pupils on the playground, wearing uniform clothing, like an activity of celebrating the coming Teachers’ Day. Before realizing what happened, she was presented a bunch of flowers by two pupils and led to the playground. Then the loving words “Thank you. Wish you health and peace!” from the broadcast wafted (飘荡) over the playground. As she stood in the middle of the playground, teachers switched on an iPod and around 350 schoolchildren, aged three to seven, broke into a specially designed formation. The teacher was moved to tears when pupils broke into a flash mob dance to mark her final day after 25 years.
In fact, taking her health into account, the leadership of the school has advised Mrs. Gabica to retire from school many times, but she refused firmly. Despite having diabetes in 2011, suffering from pain after being hit by a car in 2017 and even having a sick son to care for many years, Mrs. Gabica persevered in teaching and staying with her pupils. If she did not come to the age for retirement, she would be bound to stay with her pupils because she has a deep love for her career. Her pupils spent three weeks learning their routine to The Lion King’s He Lives in You, which was one of the music lover’s favorites, being careful not to let their secret out of the bag. Obviously, Mrs. Gabica wasn’t prepared for such a memorable send-off.
The headteacher Luke Mansfield said,“It was a wonderful way to celebrate all that Mrs. Gabica has done for the school. Since posting it we have had so many messages from former pupils who remember their happy times in her class. It’s a testament to the hard work and I think she deserves everything that she receives.”

The Metropolitan Museum of Art, more commonly known as “the Met”, located in New York City, is the largest art museum in the United States. Its impressive permanent collection is home to over two million works, divided among seventeen specialized departments. It is among the most visited art museums in the world. The main building is one of the world’s largest art galleries. On March 18, 2016, the museum opened the Met Breuer Museum, greatly enriching the museum's modern and up-to-date art program.
The Mot’s permanent collection consists of works of art from classical antiques to ancient Egyptian artifacts (史前古器物), paintings and sculptures from all but a few of the European masters. It also has an outstanding collection of American and modern art and proudly houses extensive holdings of African, Asian, Oceanic, Indian and Islamic art. Visitors can also find large collections of musical instruments and costumes, as well as antique weapons from around the globe.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art was found in 1870. It is the result of a project between businessmen, financier and influential thinkers of the day. They all shared the same passion of bringing art and art education to the American people. That dream became a reality when the museum opened its doors on February 20. 1872.

Researchers have created a backpack that has a computer and medicines in it that can help even untrained soldiers save the lives of wounded troops. Wounded soldiers have a better chance of survival if they get help soon after being hurt and are quickly taken to a hospital or clinic. But soldiers who do not have medical training may not know how to help their injured friends.
Doctors and engineers have developed what they call an “intelligent backpack”. It has a computer and electronic measuring devices. The backpack also has robotic instruments and medicines ready to give to injured troops.
About 16 doctors and engineers from the University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon University and several other places are working on the project. The U. S. Department of Defense has given money to the project.
Ron Poropatich leads the project. He is a retired army surgeon. He says the backpack will help soldiers care for those who are injured. The devices included in the backpack can monitor a person’s heart rate and blood pressure. The robotic instruments can even tell whether the soldier has a collapsed lung.
The intelligent backpack’s computer can compare information gathered about the injured soldier with thousands of similar cases, and quickly tell the best methods to use to save the soldier’s life.
Sometimes, it is not always possible to quickly remove the injured soldier from the battlefield. So, Dr. Poropatich says, the researchers hope to create a backpack that will have devices that can keep a soldier alive for a long time. Dr. Poropatich hopes the backpack and its instruments will be ready for testing animals in about three years.
32. We can learn from paragraph 1 _________.
A. Most of the soldiers can’t use the backpack correctly
B. Soldiers should have taken medical training
C. War or battle has brought harm to the world
D. The backpack can play a big part in the battlefield

A. The injurer's heart disease can he cured
B. The devices can adjust soldiers’ blood pressure
C. The robotic instruments can monitor lungs
D. The project got support from the whole world
35. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Emergency Medical Care in a Backpack.
B. Robotic Devices Used in the Battlefield.
C. Medical Care Tested on the Wounded Soldiers.
D. Researchers and Their Wonderful Discovery.

How to Protect Yourself from Hackers Online
An increase in cyber-attacks (网络攻击) makes the Internet seem like a scary place these days. How can individuals protect or make it more difficult for hackers to access their information? Here are several tips that can help you protect against cyber-attacks:
Make your password harder to hack.
Hard passwords include upper and lower case letters, numbers and special characters. 36.________ They should also not spell out words easy for hackers to find, like your pet’s name or the name of a family member.
Change your password regularly.
A very common mistake made by users is to create one hard password, but then never change it. Remembering a long list of complicated passwords can be difficult. But no password is unbreakable. 37
A password management service, like Dashlane or PasswordBox, can help you keep track of hard passwords. These services permit users to easily store and secure their passwords.

It is very easy for anyone who sees that information to steal a detailed record of your online activities. 39.________ An increasing number of public places now offer free wireless access to the Internet. Often, a user does not need a password to connect to these wireless networks. These services might be useful, but they're also an easy way for hackers to access everything on your device.
Use anti-virus protection.
There are many anti-virus services available for users. 40.________ Some anti-virus services are even free. They are a great way to have a professional help keeping users one step ahead of hackers.
A. Hackers are better able to hack multiple accounts if those accounts all have the same password.

It seems that
the result is bad, that people work for will be meaningless. Personally speak, the process of fighting for a goal is less important than the result. When we fight for our goals, we will be devoting to what we are doing and try to improve us. If we fail in the end, when we look back the beginning, we will find that we are no longer childish. We have grown up. What’s the more, in the process of fighting, we get closely to success, which the saying goes that failure is the mother of success. So don’t treat the result so serious; just enjoy the process.
