Every so often, mankind comes up with really good inventions that have changed our daily lives. However, the U.S. Patent Office has issued over 7. 5 million patents, and not all of them are quite so celebrated. Some good, some bad, and some crazy! The following lists some of the more unusual ideas that have come along.
Snake Leash
In 2002, a patent was issued for a snake-walking leash. There are at least two major problems with this idea. 1) Dog leashes fit securely between the head and shoulders. A snake does not have shoulders; so it might slither away. 2) Dogs are OK for public places because they are social animals, and people like them. Snakes are not OK for public places because they are not social, and some people are terrified of them.
Stadium Helmet
Americans are known for our love of sports. Unfortunately, good tickets to games are expensive, and some fans have to sit in the nosebleed sections. This invention, patented in 2000, is designed for these fans. Featuring a built-in radio, binoculars(望远镜) , a cooling fan, and a helmet for falling litter, this design transforms the stadium experience.
Bacon Alarm Clock
When you think about it, waking to the dreadful, blaring noise of an alarm clock
is a terrible way to start the day. However; this clock could change that. You simply put a piece of frozen bacon in the alarm clock, set the alarm, and go to sleep. The clock gently wakes you up with the mouth watering smell of bacon the next morning, just like waking up on a Sunday morning to the smell of Mom cooking breakfast. Who said there’s no time to eat breakfast?
Toilet Lock
In 1969, a patent was issued for a really bad idea –the toilet seat lock. First of all, fishing for your keys when you have to go seems very unpleasant. Then there is the possibility of losing the key altogether. What about guests? Just think that you would have to ask permission for the bathroom. Of course, there is the ultimate question: Why would you lock it in the first place?
Humana Bird Feeder
People have always admired the gracefulness and beauty of birds, and bird watching is a popular hobby. Unfortunately, getting up close and personal is a challenge. That is, until now. In 1999, a patent was issued for a helmet with birdfeeders attached to it. Although there may be a design flaw (缺陷) (turning the head to see the birds would probably frighten them), this invention could change the way of bird watching.
25. Snake Leash was designed to .
A. catch a snake
B. keep off a snake
C. take a snake for a walk
D. keep dogs and snakes together
26.What can be inferred about the nosebleed sections? .
A. They are for fans who have no tickets.
B. They are for fans who have poor eyesight.
C. They are close to the center of a stadium.
D. They are far from the center of a stadium.
27. What is the use of Human Bird Feeder?
A. To watch birds near enough. '
B. To feed birds personally.
C. To communicate with birds.
D. To hide from birds.
28.Which of the following inventions can help to save your time?
A. Toilet Lock.
B. Stadium Helmt.
C. Snake Leash.
D. Bacon Alarm Clock.
C
You can love them or hate them, but no matter which tourist destination you visit, chances are you'll see someone with their head buried in a Lonely Planet guidebook.
Lonely Planet is one of the world’s largest travel guide brands, publishing more than 500 different guides in eight languages. The popular brand also produces television shows, websites and podcasts (播客) all devoted to travel.
Some people praise Lonely Planet books because they make traveling easy and affordable. They also save time and make sure you don’t miss the best things.
They also provide the reviews of hostels, hotels, restaurants and ticket information about your destination.
This can be great if you’re a nervous traveler, or if you haven’t traveled by yourself before. If you’re in a countr y where you don’t speak the language, sometimes there’s nothing better than getting into a taxi and opening up a guidebook. You simply point to a map that directs the taxi driver to a hostel that’s cheap and clean, with friendly staff and cold beer.
But others criticize Lonely Planet and other travel guide publishers like them. They say guidebooks take the fun and spontaneity (自发性) out of traveling, and that part of the enjoyment of travel comes from the fact that anything can happen. They also regret that if you follow a guidebook, you’ll end up doing the same thing and having the same experience as everyone else. You might end up seeing the same group of people over and over, because everyone is reading the same book and following the same route.
Another criticism of travel guides is that they have a large impact on local communities. For example, some locals devote their lives to behaving in ways that attract tourists. They pretend to live a traditional lifestyle, wear traditional clothes and live in traditional houses in order to attract the tourist dollar.
29. The Lonely Planet guidebook can bring you the following advantages EXCEPT that _____.
A．you can speak a foreign language when opening a guidebook
B．you can easily find a nice place to stay in a strange city
C．it provides lots of useful information about your destination
D．it can help you save time and money when traveling
30. People criticize the guidebook because ________.
A．it is not as useful as most travelers expect
B．tourist destinations will be crowded if everyone follows the same route
C．travelers may not get the chance to have unexpected
adventures
D．local people keep modern lifestyles under its influence
31. What do we know about the Lonely Planet guidebook from the text?
A．It's a world-famous brand only producing guidebooks for travelers.
B．It's very useful to a person who's nervous about touring an unfamiliar place. C．It's very useful to a tourist who likes to repeat others' experiences.
D．It is loved by all travelers because of the convenience it brings to travelers.

Everything was put neatly into my suitcase．I'm a flight attendant．I'm so organized，my half of the closet could be a display at The Container Store．My husband's half of the closet？Just thinking about it made my head ache．I carried my suitcase downstairs．Bill was in the kitchen cooking．Looking at the messy kitchen，I shouted，“Why do you have to be so messy？” Bill looked hurt，“What？” I sighed and left for the airport．
On my last flight，an elderly couple had the seats in my section．They held hands during takeoff．Lat er I caught them looking into each other’s eyes．Something about that look was familiar．Then I realized：it was the look Bill and I had worn in our wedding photographs．I couldn’t resist asking them about the secret of their long-lasting marriage. “Have fun t ogether，”the man said, “and never take each other for granted．”
His words circled in my head long after we landed．Bill wasn’t perfect．But then，was I？I kept complaining about his messiness and forgot his kindness，his ability to see the bright side of every situation-qualities that ran so much deeper，the reasons I had married him in the first place．
I took out my cell phone and called Bill. “I miss you already.” I said．“I miss you too，Kim，” he said．As soon as my flights were over，I rushed home．Bill met me at the door．"I have a surprise for you．"he said and led me into the kitchen．I glanced around the room．He really had worked hard．In spite of the fingerprints on that microwave floor，I could see our reflection in it：my husband and I，our smiles glowing with love for each other，just like in our wedding photos．
32．Why did Kim get so angry with her husband？
A．She found his weaknesses one morning．
B．She didn’t love him any more．
C．He left things in an untidy state．
D．He turned a deaf ear to her complaints．
33．W hat’s special about the old couple？
A．They never quarreled with each other．
B．They often made fun of each other．
C．They kept their love so fresh．
D．They took each other for granted．
A．she realized Bill wasn’t perfect
B．she got inspired by the old couple
C．her husband had cleaned up the kitchen
D．they had their wedding photos taken
A．Love You，Love Your Mess B．Love is blind，Love is messy
C．The Wedding Photos D．A Loving Old Couple．

Moving to a new place may be an exciting adventure. 36 If you have a friend experiencing this anxiety, there are some steps you can take to make him feel more at home. Talk to your friend about his homesickness. 37 This also gives you the option to share with him any strategies you have personally discovered t o help overcome these feelings.
Join your friend in discovering and adapting to the new environment. It is human nature to fear the unknown. By learning to deal with the new environment, your friend will find it easier to overcome the desire for what is familiar.
Introduce him to new friends by including him in your social circle. These new relationships help relieve the feelings of homesickness and keep his mind off those friends he left behind. 38 For example, if he likes sports and being outdoors invite him to go hiking or camping with you and your friends.
39 Developing a new schedule will help him change things to where he does not need his old routine. Perhaps get him involved in an athletic club where he can boost endorphins(内啡肽) by keeping physically fit.
Keep a positive outlook. Encourage him to see the glass half full so he can embrace this new experience instead of longing for what once was. Being positive helps your friends become more positive, so make the most of y our influence. 40
A. However, there are many ways to overcome it.
B. Burying it will only make his homesickness worse.
C. Invite h im to clubs that you know he will enjoy.
D. Help him develop a new routine to replace the old one.
E. You will help him keep an active attitude to life if you are positive.
F. He could be homesick due to missing family dinners every night
