A small robot may help children who are recovering from a long-term illnesses in the hospital or at home. These children may feel separated from their friends and classmates.

The annual Carnival in Brazil is a unique festival. It is also the most important ethnic （民族的） celebration. It comes between the end of February and the beginning of March every year. Hundreds of thousands of tourists from overseas were attracted to join the feast of celebration， which involves fashionable ， sexy Brazilian girls and passionate samba dance.

The earliest Carnival dates back to 1641， when the colonial rulers implemented a decree （法令）. According to it， people would be encouraged to parade， dance and drink to celebrate the birthday of the Portuguese King. More than three hundred years later， the Carnival has become the most important folk festival of Brazil.

On February 24 of this year， the “King Momo” dressed in bright orange， took the gold key of the city from the mayor of Riode Janeiro， to indicate the beginning of the Carnival. During the following five days， the “King”， who played a leading role in the Carnival， would throw out all daily routines， so that people could fulfill themselves. The “King Momo” this year was a 33-year-old architect. His name was Alex de Oliveira.

The “King Momo” is also known as “the King of Carnival”. He is hand-picked by Rio residents. There was once a rule that required the “King” to weigh no less than 100 kg. Today， there is a rule that the “King” shouldn’t be heavier than 130 kg.

The main “course” of the Carnival is the samba dance. Months before the Carnival， some professional samba schools will set out to compose music， rehearse dances and design costumes according to the current theme of the Carnival.

700，000 tourists swarmed （擠滿） the coastal city of Rio de Janeiro for the Carnival. Whoever they are—poor or rich， celebrity or ordinary people—they are all just dancers， day and night. Happiness prevails， while complaints disappear. Countless romantic stories occur during the celebrations， brightening everyone’s dull daily life.

1. What does the underlined word “costumes” in Paragraph 1 probably mean？

A. Films.??????? B. Songs.??????? C. Clothes.???? D. Books.

You are chatting with friends on the phone， but you can’t help browsing （瀏覽） a shopping website in the meantime. You’re eating lunch alone in the restaurant， but it only feels right when you start playing a show on your phone—as if it’s a necessary side dish.

We now live in a world that provides us with information. It seems unnatural to do only one thing at a time. It’s as if we’re all suffering from what a recent Qdaily article called “multitasking OCD （多任務(wù)強(qiáng)迫癥）”.

“With news reduced to 140 characters and communication increasingly made by emojis， we have developed the ability to focus our attention on several activities and devices at the same time，” Saby Otmani， founder of the website Pulpix， once wrote. “We need lots of stimuli （刺激） to keep us interested and to fight off boredom.”

But perhaps “fighting off boredom” is not the only reason. My own with multitasking mainly comes from the fact that everyone around me seems to be constantly studying. Each minute without new information feels like a waste of time. So I always have my headphones on， whether I’m commuting， exercising or walking in the park. I’m forever listening to something—a course on classical music， or on new media management， and heaven knows what else—just so I can keep up with the world.

People who can’t stay away from social media are known as FOMO （fear of missing out）. They have to be constantly updated about what their friends are doing and saying. But I’d guess that “FOFO” better describes me—“fear of falling out”. No matter what your reason， multitasking is a part of modern life. Do your best to make the most out of it.

5. Why does the author give the examples in Paragraph 1？

A. To show how busy today’s life is.

B. To show that people today often feel lost.

C. To explain what “multitasking OCD” is like.

D. To explain why people like to be fashionable.

6. According to Otmani， why do people like multitasking？

A. To get away from being bored.

B. To communicate better with others.

C. To be better than the past generation.

D. To be more patient to finish one thing at a time.

7.What does the underlined word “obsession” in Paragraph 4 probably mean？

A. Interest.?????????????????????????????? B. Worry.

C. Understanding.??????????????????? D. Knowledge.

8. Why is the author crazy about multitasking？

A. She needs something to show off.

B. She is becoming more interested in her study.

C. She doesn’t want to get left behind by others.

D. She thinks it is boring to do one thing at a time.

Do you know what makes people successful？ To find out the answers， an American scholar visited some of the most successful people around the world. ___1___

Be responsible for yourself.

Sometimes you may want to blame （指責(zé)） others for your failure to get ahead. In fact， when you say someone or something outside of yourself is stopping you from achieving success， you’re giving away your own power. ___2___

Write a plan.

It is very difficult to try to get what you want without a good plan. It is just like trying to drive through strange roads to a city far away. ___3___Without this “map”， you may waste your time， money and also your energy; while with the “map” you’ll enjoy the “trip” and get what you want in the shortest possible time.

Be willing to pay the price.

___4___So you must be ready to work hard—even harder than you have ever done. If you are not willing to pay the price， you won’t get anything valuable.

___5___

It seems to us that everyone knows this. But it is easier said than done. When you are doing something， you must tell yourself again and again： Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success， but giving up means the death of hope.

It’s tough to see or hear of a friend in crisis （危機(jī)）. One idea to keep in mind is that it is healthy for the distressed person to feel what he or she feels in the moment. When a person in crisis feels understood， he or she feels less alone and connected to the person who understands.

A person， who experiences empathy （同感） from a friend who can “go there” for a few minutes in order to authentically understand while still maintaining a strong and supportive attitude， may be relieved and healed. While a friend is telling you about the circumstance， the first and most important step is to listen for feelings， not ways to solve the problem.

For example， a friend is terribly upset because her husband is threatening to leave her. After fully honoring the feelings， it is important to ask the friend what would help. Maybe is a good cry and some ice cream. Perhaps it’s a glass of wine and a walk. Everyone has different ways of dealing. Be respectful and ask the friend what she needs or wants， not what you prescribe （指定）.

Thanksgiving Day is one of the most important family holiday in America. All the members of a family， no matter far away they are， will try to get together on that day. The first Thanksgiving in America takes place in October， 1621. In 1620， the group of Englishmen sailed to Massachusetts. They had expected to find a freely place to live in， so they experienced a hard winter. Half of them starved to die. The next spring， we began farming. With the help of local Indians， they had learned to plant corn and raise animals. In the autumn， the fields produced a good harvest. Filling with joy and thanks to God， they held a celebration.

Sundry Features of Halloween

雜談萬圣節(jié)

Tiny ghost-like dolls hang from trees， big plastic spiders sit on rooftops and bloody plastic hands reach out from gravestones… Are you ready for the scariest night of the year？

October 31 is Halloween， one of the most popular festivals in the US， Canada and Britain. The festival began as a day to remember the dead. But nowadays it’s all about the carnival atmosphere when people can enjoy dressing up and scaring each other.

Halloween is one of children’s favorite nights of the year. They dress up as monsters and go to their neighbours’ houses， knocking on the door they shout， “Trick or treat！” Of course， people usually give them “treats”—like sweets or chocolates. But if you don’t， you can expect a prank such as having your car windows soaped or your garbage cans turned over.

Halloween is also a time for masquerade parties. Witches fly in on broomsticks， while ghosts and skeletons chat on the dance floor.

You can even dress up as a famous monster like Dracula！ The motto is， “The scarier， the better.”

A well-known Halloween tradition is to make lanterns from pumpkins， called “Jack-o’-lanterns”. First， the inside of the pumpkin is removed. Then， a face is cut into the pumpkin， traditionally a smiling， devil face. Finally a candle is placed inside， and the lantern is put at the front of the house to keep evil spirits away.

Besides pumpkin cutting， “apple-bobbing” is another popular game. Several apples are put in water in a big bucket. Children have their hands tied behind their backs. They have to try to pick the apples out of the water using only their mouths. Of course， people get very wet and it is very funny to watch.

樹上到處懸掛著鬼怪小玩偶，屋頂盤踞著巨大的塑料蜘蛛，墓穴里伸出一雙血淋淋的塑膠手……一年之中最恐怖的夜晚到來了，你準(zhǔn)備好了嗎？

10月31日是萬圣節(jié)前夜，它是美國、加拿大和英國最受歡迎的節(jié)日之一。節(jié)日起源于對死者的紀(jì)念。但現(xiàn)在已完全成了一場大狂歡，人們盡情享受著喬裝打扮和互相恐嚇的樂趣。

萬圣節(jié)前夜是一年中孩子們最喜歡的夜晚之一。他們打扮成怪物去鄰居家，敲著門大喊：“不給糖就搗蛋！”當(dāng)然，人們通常會給“糖”——比如甜食或巧克力。但如果你不給，那就等著一場惡作劇吧，譬如你的車窗會被涂上肥皂或你家的垃圾桶翻倒在地。

萬圣節(jié)前夜也是舉辦化裝舞會的好時(shí)機(jī)?！芭住弊鴴咧泔w進(jìn)來，“鬼怪”和“骷髏”則在舞池中竊竊私語。

你甚至可以化裝成像德拉庫拉伯爵那樣著名的吸血鬼怪物。有句格言說得好：“越恐怖越好?！?/p>

眾所周知的傳統(tǒng)是萬圣節(jié)前夜用南瓜做成燈籠，叫作“杰克南瓜燈”。首先，把南瓜內(nèi)部掏空。然后，在南瓜上雕刻出一張面孔，通常是一張笑瞇瞇的魔鬼面孔。最后在南瓜內(nèi)部放上一支蠟燭，并把南瓜燈放在房子前面用來嚇跑那些邪惡的幽靈。

除了雕刻南瓜，“叼蘋果”是另一個(gè)很流行的游戲。把幾只蘋果放在裝滿水的大水桶里。孩子們的手被綁在背后。他們只能用嘴把蘋果從水里叼出來。當(dāng)然了，人們會全身濕淋淋的，光看著就很有趣。
