1．Don't like getting out of the shower on cold mornings？Are you feeling that cold wind when working or trying to relax？
The biggest issue that people have is the fact that most old-fashioned heaters are big，cost a lot to run and waste energy.Luckily，a company has recently just developed a product which saves a ton of power during its operation and is，above all，smart and easy to use!It's called HotixPro and it's a very small，powerful heater that consumes much less energy than regular heaters.
How Does HotixPro Work？
The ceramic element（陶瓷零件） stays warm 30% longer，so it doesn't have to use much power to reheat over and over again.The fan inside HotixPro then sucks the air out through the hot ceramic element and distributes it evenly throughout the room!It can heat a room up to 250 square feet and make it warmer in a few minutes，for just pennies.
What Makes It So Special？
One of the amazing features it has is the programmable timer.You can program it and warm up your bathroom before you wake up.Also，its remote controller makes it very easy to adjust the temperature.The company also kept safety in mind in the creation process——they added a sensor which makes HotixPro stop completely if it becomes too hot.
Is It Worth It？
Don't let your quality of life continue to suffer Save on expensive energy costs and keep warm during the winter anywhere!Purchase HotixPro at half price with free worldwide shipping!

2．The Andler Hillclimb is an annual dirt bike competition that has dirt bikers from around Europe try，to reach the top of a dangerous hillside course in Belgium.It's been held every year for the last two decades，but so far，no one has been able to reach the top.
The so-called "impossible climb" starts out as rough gravel and then switches over to a rough uneven cliff （懸崖） face designed to throw riders off and roll them and their bikes back down to the base of the hill.It's not the angle of the course that is the problem，according to most riders，but the sudden change of ride surface that makes keeping control of the bike and reaching the top so hard.Some fly off their bike early during the climb.While others get painfully close to the finish line，yet in the end they all succumb to the power of gravity （重力） before reaching their goal.
Despite gathering the most talented dirt bikers in Europe at the start line every year，the Andler Hillclimb has so far remained unconquered.The closest one to success was a Suzuki bike rider who once reportedly crossed the finish line with the front wheel before rolling back down the slope like the rest of the competitors.Sadly，his achievement didn't count as a valid climb，as the entire bike and its rider must make it to the top of the hill.
With so many riders having failed to conquer the Andler Hillclimb over the last 20 years，why are people still trying every year？Why not just call the climb impossible and stop it？Well，maybe it has something to do with the bragging rights （勝者為王）？Can you imagine what it would be like to be the very first dirt biker to reach the top of this famous hill？
In case you want to try your luck，or if you simply want to see the hill make fools of dozens of daredevils （蠻干者），this year's event is scheduled for August.
（1）What makes it difficult for bikers to reach the top of the Andler Hillclimb？
A．The bikers' poor riding skills.
B．The steep angle of the slope.
C．The rough gravel road surface.
D．The sudden changes in ride surface.
（2）What do the underlined words "succumb to'' in the second paragraph probably mean？
A．Give in to.
B．Break through.
C．Learn about.
D．Fight against.
（3）Why does the author mention the example in the third paragraph？
A．To criticize the strict rules of the competition.
B．To express regret over the Suzuki bike rider's failure.
C．To show how difficult it is to win the competition.
D．To explain why the competition is popular with bikers.
（4）What do we know about the Andler Hillclimb from the passage？
A．It is the most dangerous European competition.
B．It is expected to be held in August this year.
C．It is attended by the world's best dirt bikers every year.
D．It aims to throw riders and their bikes back down the hill.組卷：3引用：2難度：0.5 -
3．Although we live in an era where everything seems to be available immediately，our study suggests that today's kids can delay gratification（滿足感） longer than children in the 1960s and 1980s，" said University of Minnesota psychologist Stephanie M．Carlson．" This finding stands in great contrast with the assumption by adults that today's children have less self-control than previous generations．
The original marshmallow（棉花糖） test conducted by researchers at Stanford University involved a series of experiments in which children aged between 3 and 5 years were offered one treat that they could eat immediately or a larger treat if they waited．Researchers then left the room to see how long the children would wait and watched from behind a one-way mirror．
Interestingly，today's adults thought that children nowadays would be more impulsive and less able to wait，Carlson found． "Our findings serve as an example of how our beliefs can be wrong and how it's important to do research，" said co-author Yuichi Shoda，PhD at the University of Washington．
The researchers offered several possible explanations for why children in the 2000s waited longer than those in prior decades．They noted a statistically significant increase in IQ scores in the last several decades．Another explanation may be society's increased focus on the importance of early education，according to Carlson．The primary objective of preschool changed from largely custodial care （監(jiān)護(hù)） to school readiness in the 1980s．Parenting also has changed in ways that help promote the development of executive function，such as being more supportive of children's self-control，the researchers noted．
Walter Mischel of Columbia University，who co-authored this paper，noted that "while the results indicate that the children's ability to delay is not weakened on the marshmallow test，the findings do not speak to their willingness to delay gratification when faced with the many temptations now available in everyday life．"
（1）According to the passage，what is the adults' assumption about today's children？
A．They are not easy to please．
B．They are less able to control themselves．
C．They don't like things that are easy to get．
D．They have different personalities from previous generations．
（2）What does the underlined word "impulsive" in Paragraph 3 mean？
A．productive
B．considerate
C．clear-minded
D．hot-headed
（3）What did the researchers find about children in the 2000s？
A．They are more prepared to go to school．
B．They are not as clever as previous generations．
C．They are taught self-control only by their teachers．
D．They don't need any custodial care in their early childhood．
（4）What does the author want to tell readers in the last paragraph？
A．Most children nowadays can't resist the temptations of everyday life．
B．Children chose to delay gratification willingly in the marshmallow test．
C．The test can't accurately measure children's willingness to delay gratification．
D．Children's ability to delay gratification is weakened because there are many temptations．組卷：7引用：3難度：0.5
