It’s the time of year when we start hiking. As you pack, remember to bring your smartphone. Whether you’re going on a short walk or a long trip, there are a handful of apps that can help.
MapMyHike
This app tracks where you're hiking so you have a mapof your route at the end of the hike. It can also track other fitness information like the distance traveled, speed, pace, and even calories burned. You can save the data for your hike, so you can always access the route you look as well as track improvements to your workout. GaiaGPS
You don't always have cellphone service when hiking, but you always want to know where you are. The GaiaGPS app provides that information. Download maps of different parts of the world, and access the GaiaGPS app in the middle of even the most remote trails. The GPS function makes using the maps simple, and the app will also point to areas of interest.
Backpacking Checklist
One of the worst things is being way out on a trail only to discover you left behind something important. That's why checklists are the best. This checklist app helps you build a customized(定制的) list of things to take with you. Organize different lists based on trail lengths or requirements. Track all your essential items by weight and where you can find them.
WildObs
Using WildObs, you can record your observations of plants and animals and add them to the database. You can ask the community to help you identify something and keep track of everything you've met, and most importantly, you can become a citizen scientist. By recording what you've seen with this app, you're helping scientists keep track of what's happening to the natural world.

When I was seven my father gave me a Timex, my first watch. I loved it, wore it for years, and haven’t had another one since it stopped ticking a decade ago. Why? Because I don’t need one. I have a mobile phone and I’m always near someone with an iPod or something like that. All these devices (装置) tell the time — which is why, if you look around, you’ll see lots of empty wrists; sales of watches to young adults have been going down since 2007. This is ridiculous. Expensive cars go faster than cheap cars. Expensive clothes hang better than cheap clothes. But these days all watches tell the time as well as all other watches. Expensive watches come with extra functions — but who needs them? How often do you dive to 300 metres into the sea or need to find your direction in the area around the South Pole? So why pay that much of five years’ school fees for watches that allow you to do these things?
If justice were done, the Swiss watch industry should have closed down when the Japanese discovered how to make accurate watches for a five-pound note. Instead the Swiss reinvented the watch, with the aid of millions of pounds’ worth of advertising, as a message about the man wearing it. Rolexes are for those who spend their weekends climbing icy mountains; a Patek Philippe is for one from a rich or noble family; a Breitling suggests you like to pilot planesacross the world.
Watches are now classified as “investments” (投资). A 1994 Philippe recently sold for nearly £ 350,000, while 1960s Rolexes have gone from £ 15,000 to £ 30,000 plus in a year. But a watch is not an investment. It’s a toy for self-satisfaction, a matter of fashion. Prices may keep going up — they’ve been rising for 15 years. But when of fashion. Prices may keep going up — they’ve been rising for 15 years. But when fashion moves on, the owner of that £ 350,000 beauty will suddenly find his pride and joy is no more a good investment than my childhood Times.
4. The author don’t need another watch because ________.
A. he don’t like wearing a watch
B. he has mobile phone and can ask someone for help
C. he has no sense of time
D. he thinks watches too expensive
5. It seems ridiculous to the writer that________.
A. expensive watches with unnecessary functions still sell
B. expensive clothes sell better than cheap ones
C. cheap cars don’t run as fast as expensive ones
D. people dive 300 metres into the sea
6. What can be learnt about Swiss watch industry from the passage?
A. It wastes a huge amount of money in advertising.
B. It’s hard for the industry to beat its competitors.
C. It targets rich people as its potential customers.
D. It’s easy for theindustry to reinvent cheap watches.
7. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Timex or Rolex?
B. My Childhood Timex
C. Watches? Not for Me!
D. Watches----a Valuable Collection
C
On March 18, 34-year-old Lance Karlson was walking on the beach and looking for somewhere toswim in Geographe Bay when he saw what he thought was a stingray (黄貂鱼) leap from the water.
Realizing the creature was, in fact, an octopus (章鱼), he started filming it — just in time for the angry octopus to launch itself at him. He immediately felt a sharp pain across his left arm, followed by a second strike across his neck and upper back. His goggles (护目镜) fogged and the water around him turned dark with what he thought might have been octopus ink as he struggled back toward the shore.
"I was confused — it was more of a shock than a fright," said Karlson, "I might have hit on its home." Within a minute, a perfect imprint of an octopus tentacle (触手) appeared on Karlson's neck and back.
A former volunteer lifeguard, Karlson rushed back to his hotelroom to find something acidic to put on the wound. All his family could grab was Coca-Cola, which his wife poured over his back and the pain disappeared.
"The pain went away and more than anything since then, it's been more the physical hit that was painful.... The imprint on my neck is more from the physical hit, and I guess it makes complete sense when you look at the video I took," he said.
Karlson said he'd never seen an octopus that close before and watched Netflix documentary "My Octopus Teacher" after the incident to learn more about the species.
"They are beautiful creatures and I really hope this promotes more interest in octopuses as opposed to fear
of them. I think this is a fascinating creature with clearly some very strong emotions just like we do as humans," he added.
8. When did the octopus attack Karlson?
A. When he was swimming in the bay.
B. When he was shooting the octopus.
C. When he was looking for some fish.
D. When he was fighting against the octopus.
9. What plays an essential role in reducing Karlson's pain?
A. The lifeguard's timely help.
B. Karson's wife's quick action.
C. The family members' efforts.
D. Karlson’s knowledge of first aid.
10. What does Karlson learn from his experience?
A. The octopus is dangerous.
B. People should get away from the octopus.
C. People need know more about the octopus.
D. The physical hit from the octopus is painful.
11. Which of the following might be the best title?
A. Pain from Strong Attack
B. First Aid for Octopus' Strike
C. Face to Face with Angry Octopus
D. Under Sea with Dangerous Creature
D
Understanding the link between a clean environment and human life is not a new concept. In fact, it was noticed as early as ancient Rome. Today we see how green living has infiluenced our everyday lives. There is a growing community of people who embrace a zero waste lifestyle and make changes to the way they live to reduce their carbon footprint.
Living a zero waste lifestyle means doing one’s best to achieve the aim of not sending anything to a landfill. People who adopt this lifestyle ultimately cut down on their waste by reducing what they need and want. They reuse what they own, sending few things to be recycled.
Many people who adopt the zero waste lifestyle claim to be frustrated by the many harmful chemical substances found in beauty and cleaning products. They also find the uses of disposable items and excessive packaging. For example, how many times have we had to peel away layers of plastic wrap and cardboard before finally taking out the item which we had bought? Instead of buying pre-packed food and goods, those who identify with the zero waste philosophy tend to shop in stores that allow them to make purchases and bring their own cloth bags and glass jars to store their purchases.
Many people may have the misconception that it is easier to live a zero waste lifestyle in the West. Nevertheless, Malaysian environmental journalist, Ms. Aurora Tin, has proven that a zero waste lifestyle is possible even in the Asian context. Instead of going to the supermarket to buy pre-packaged foods, Ms. Tin now visits the wet market and brings her own bags for vegetables. She has even stopped using store-bought toothpaste and makes her own toothpaste from coconut oil and baking soda. This lifestyle may be too big a change for the average person, but we could follow her suit to make gradual changes to our own lives.
12. Which of the following is a zero waste lifestyle?
A. Bringing a resuable container to take away food.
B. Choosing appliances that cost less money.
C. Turning off a device to stop using power.
D. Classifying the garbage before throwing it away.
13. What may disappoint a person who adopts a zero waste lifestyle?
A. Recycable carboard.
B. Excessive packaging.
C. Glass jars to store purchases.
D. Natural substances in cleaning products.
14. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. How do people live a zero waste lifestyle.
B. Why Ms. Tin chooses to live a zero waste lifestyle..
C. We can also practice a zero waste lifestyle in Asia.
D. It is easy to live a zero waste lifestyle in the West.
15. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Living a zero waste lifestyle.
B. Going green ismore than a fashion.
C. A zero waste lifetyle is easy to achieve.
D. Making environmentally-conscious decisions.
