【題目】 Sometimes, you just can’t help it. Maybe you’re watching a sad movie, or thinking about the friend who moved away. Why do people cry? What are tears（眼淚）? Scientists are working hard to find out the answers to these questions.

Ad Vingerhoets is a professor of psychology（心理學(xué)） at Tilburg University in the Netherlands. He is one of the few scientists in the world who have studied crying. According to Vingerhoets, there are three types of tears. Basal tears are the first type. They act as a protective object between the eye and the rest of the world. Next are reflex tears. They wash your eyes clean when something gets in them. Finally, there are emotional tears. “They are connected with our feelings,” explains Vingerhoets. “Especially when we feel helpless.”

Scientists believe that crying has something to do with how humans developed and learned to depend on each other. “Humans are very complex（復(fù)雜的）,” says Lauren Bylsma, a professor from the USA. “It seems that tears serve to get help and support from others.” She says another reason we cry is that humans have the longest developmental period of almost any animal. It takes a long time for humans to grow up.

Vingerhoets approves. “I think that the reason why humans cry has to do with our long childhood,” he says. “That’s the time when we are still dependent on adults for love and protection and care. Tears were a safer way to be noticed by others. In this case, it is better to use a quiet way to ask for help,” he says.

Vingerhoets and Bylsma do lots of studies to better understand why humans cry. According to Bylsma, there is still much more to discover. “It’s surprising,” she says, “how much we still don’t know.”

【1】What kind of tears will run down your face when something gets into your eyes?

A.Basal tears.B.Reflex tears.

C.Emotional tears.D.Complex tears.

【2】The underlined word “approves” in Paragraph 4 most probably means“_____________”.

A.agreesB.cheersC.repeatsD.succeeds

【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.It’s easy to understand why humans cry.

B.Basal tears are a type of protective object.

C.Emotional tears are better than reflex tears.

D.The reason why humans cry has nothing to do with childhood.

【4】We may read this passage ____________ .

A.in a mystery novelB.in a storybook

C.in a science magazineD.in a sports newspaper

【題目】 How has technology made your life easier? When you go to a shopping mall, you can enjoy free Wi-Fi there. When you want to take a taxi, you can book one with your phone. 【1】 The idea of a smart city was first suggested by tech company IBM in 2010.【2】There are many examples in our lives, such as 5G networks and the “internet of things”, they are used to improve urban planning, save money and resources (資源), and make our lives more convenient.

Cities like Boston, Amsterdam and Copenhagen are already using smart technology to improve public services 【3】In Amsterdam, traffic is monitored（監(jiān)測(cè)）and adjusted according to real-time data gathered from sensors around the city. There are fewer traffic jams.

Smart cities will allow us to save resources. By using sensors and 5G networks to check the usage of water, gas and electricity, city managers can figure out how to use these resources more efficiently. For example, water and gas pipes (管道) could remind repair workers when there is a leak (泄漏).【4】

Of course, it will take time to build the smart cities of the future. But since we’ve already seen successful examples, it won’t be long until more cities join in. 【5】

A.In the US cities of Boston, smart trash bins can sense how full they are and tell workers when they need to be cleaned.

B.In fact, all of these things can be seen as the first building blocks of a smart city.

C.Tech Republic estimates(估計(jì))that by 2050, about 60 percent of people worldwide will live in smart cities.

D.Air pollution could be more closely monitored, too.

E.A smart city is a city that uses digital (電子的) technology.
