Maddie Messe, 13, has always loved Temple Run, a mobile game that sends her racing through swamps (沼澤) and forests to outrun a pack of crazed monkeys. What she didn’t love was being forced to play as a boy — unless she was willing to buy a female version. “I felt like l was being cheated or misrepresented,” Maddie explains．“Girls are just as capable (有能力的) of running away from monkeys as boys are.”

So last winter, Maddie researched 50 of the most popular iPhone games. What she found was infuriating：90 percent offered free male characters, but only 15 percent let you play as a female for free.

Armed with those statistics, Maddie drafted a spirited article and fired it off to several major newspapers. The Washington Post agreed to run the piece, which attracted millions of readers around the globe — including the makers of Temple Run! “We realized she had a point,” says Natalia Luckyanova, the game’s co-creator. “It was the kick in the pants we needed to say,‘We should fix it．’So we did.”

Now you can play Temple Run with a female character for free, but Maddie hopes her campaign inspires something deeper.“If you don’t see characters that look like you on TV or in movies or games, speak up! Just do your research first,”says Maddie. “One well-supported argument is much more effective than a million angry complaints.”

1.What did Maddie hate about Temple Run?

A. It had no female versions.

B. It charged for female versions.

C. Its female versions were too expensive.

D. Its female versions were not good enough.

2.Maddle’s findings_________.

A. pleased her B. cheated her

C. angered her D. comforted her

3.To Natalia Luckyanova, Maddie’s article sounded________.

A. amusing B. persuasive

C. impractical D. unreasonable

4.Maddie encourages readers to_________.

A. play mobile games within limits

B. write articles for major newspapers

C. respond to complaints in a proper way

D. do some research before making an argument

As I walked along the Edgware Road, I felt as though the world was closing in on me. All the sounds I take for granted, had gone. I had entered a world of silence. This unsettling experience occurred a few weeks ago when I agreed to go deaf for the day to support the work of the charity Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, for which I am an ambassador.

When I managed to take a cab to the office of my manager, Gavin, I couldn’t hear what the taxi driver was saying to me. Conversation was impossible. Then, when I reached the office, I had to ring the intercom five times as I couldn’t hear a response.

Everybody said I was shouting at them--- I simply wasn’t aware of how loudly I was speaking as I couldn’t hear my own voice. Gavin kept telling me my phone was ringing, but I didn’t realize. I was too busy trying to concentrate on reading his lips. And when he tried to tell me a code to put into my phone, I had to keep asking him to repeat it, more slowly. Eventually he lost his patience and snapped at me: “Just give me the phone!” I was shocked.

People couldn’t be bothered to repeat themselves, so they kept trying to do things for me that I was perfectly capable of doing myself. I felt I’d lost control.

Being deaf for the day was extraordinarily tiring. I had to work so hard to “l(fā)isten” with my eyes, get people’s attention and use my other senses to make up for my lack of hearing. It was a huge, exhausting effort.

Until that experience I didn’t realize how much I took my own hearing for granted, or the sorts of emotions and experiences deaf people go through. If a deaf person asks you to repeat something, never think: “It doesn’t matter.” It does matter.

1.Why did the author focus on reading Gavin’s lips?

A. By doing this he could understand what Gavin was saying.

B. He wanted to be aware of what the code was.

C. He attempted to get the code into the phone by himself.

D. He didn’t want to bother Gavin to repeat what he was saying.

2.What advice does the author give in the passage?

A. Speak at the top of your voice if you can’t hear others speaking.

B. Repeat things as slowly as possible for the deaf.

C. Take your own hearing for granted.

D. Do as many things as possible for the deaf.

3.What can be inferred from the passage?

A. It’s boring to live in a world of silence.

B. The author has to use gestures to communicate with his friends.

C. There are many other ways to help the deaf understand others.

D. Many ordinary people just take hearing for granted until they lose it.

4.What can be the best title of the passage?

A. Helping the Deaf with More Patience

B. Don’t Take Your Hearing for Granted

C. Listening with Eyes

D. The Importance of Reading Lips

Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self - conscious; that is, they are concerned with their own appearance and actions too much. Negative thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: What kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?

It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people unfavorably. A person’s self- concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves and the way a person behaves affects other people’s reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a deep effect on all areas of their lives.

Shy people, who have low respect, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need faith that they are doing “the right thing”. Shy people are very sensitive to criticism. It makes them feel inferior (自卑).They also find it difficult to be pleased by praises because they believe they are unworthy of praise. A shy person may respond to a praise with a statement like this one: “You’re just saying that to make me feel good, I know it’s not true. ” It is clear that, while self- awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.

Can shyness be completely got rid of, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determination since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self respect. It is important for people to accept their weakness as well as their strengths. Each one of us has his or her own characteristics. We are interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our chances for a rich and successful life.

1.The first paragraph is mainly about ______.

A. the cause of shyness

B. the effect of shyness on people

C. the feelings of shy people

D. the questions in the minds of shy people

2.According to the writer, self-awareness is ______.

A. harmful to people

B. a weak point of shy people

C. the cause of unhappiness

D. a healthy quality

3.What is the shy people’s reaction to praise?

A. They are pleased by it.

B. They feel it is not true.

C. They are very sensitive to it.

D. They feel they are worthy of it.

4.We can learn from the passage that shyness can ______.

A. be overcome with determination

B. help us to live up to our full development
