What is the most important invention of all the time? Is it the written word that helps us to record information? Is it the telephone that lets us talk to people from all over the world? Is it the car that lets us travel at great speeds to meet others? Umberto Eco, an Italian writer, thinks it is something quite different. He says the most important invention might be right in front of your eyes. He is talking about a simple pair of glasses.
Modern eye glasses were invented around 1000 years ago. They were more than just a convenient way to read. Before glasses were invented, writers, scientists or teachers who could not see properly had to memorize everything. After
about ten years of poor eyesight, they could not remember well enough and could not work. Glasses meant that people could work in their old age. People who wanted to remember some information could write it down and read it. Eye glasses are one of the world's greatest inventions and were probably worn by the people who designed the first telephones and car.
( )56. What happened after glasses were invented?
A. People could write down some information and read it.
B. The young people can't use them.
C. People could not remember well enough.
D. People could not write down anything.
( )57. Before glasses were invented, writers, scientists and teachers who could not see clearly had to________. A. be taught by others B. memorize everything
C. write down everything
D. read everything
( )58. The author thinks ________ is the greatest invention of all time in this passage.
A. a simple pair of glasses
B. the telephone
C. the car
D. the paper
( )59. The invention of the written word is important because________.
A. we need it to listen
B. we need it to see things
C. we just need it to read
D. we need it to record information
( )60. From this passage, we can know________.
A. people who designed the first telephone and car probably wore eye glasses
B. the author of this article is Chinese
C. modern eye glasses were invented 100 years ago
D. the author of this article is American
( B )
We use passwords(密码)to keep our personal information secret and safe, but some passwords we use may not be as reliable as we think.
Splash Data, a computer security company, recently released a list of the 25 worst passwords of 2011.This list is based on the research of ha ckers’ files containing stolen passwords. According to the list, “password” is the
worst and most common password. Many others on the list are numbers in order either forward (for example,1234) or backward. Letters on the keyboard in order, such as “qwerty” are also common, as well as some first names and animals. “Hackers can easily break into many accounts(账户) just by trying common passwords again and again, ” said Morgan Slain, CEO of Splash Data.
How can you make a strong password? It should be eight characters or more, with a mix of letters, numbers and symbols. One way to create a long and easy-to-remember password is to separate short words with spaces or numbers. Having safe passwords is necessary for surfing the Internet safely. But it’s not the only thing you must do to keep safety online. Here are some other web safety tips:
● Never give out information that will allow someone to find you offline. That includes your full name, address and phone number.
● Don’t include your real name as part of your online screen name.
● Never meet people you met on the Internet in person. If
you insist on breaking this rule, meet in a very public place and consider taking an adult with you.
Top 10 worst passwords: 1.password 2. 123456 3. 12345678 4. qwerty
5. abc123
6. monkey
7. 1234567
8. letmein
9.trustno1 10. dragon
( )61. What is “Splash Data”?
A. A company.
B. A TV station.
C. A scientist.
D. An American.
( )62. The underlined word hacker means “_______ ” in Chinese.
A. 流浪者
B. 黑客
C. 银行职员
D. 软件设计师
( )63 Which is the worst and most common password?
A. abc123.
B. monkey.
C. password.
D. 123456.
( )64. You can’t put your ______ on the Internet.
A. address
B. phone number
C. name
D. A,B and C
( )65. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Animal names can be very safe passwords.
B. You can meet people you met on the Internet in person in a very public place.
C. You can’t use your real names as part of your online screen name.

Shanghai No. 8 Middle School began to use the new bell this term. It`s very useful because it helps teachers remember it is break time. The new bell has three parts.
The first part lasts 15 seconds（秒）. It is made up of lovely folk music. Next, there are 20 seconds of silence. The final 25-second bell is a fast-paced march(快节奏进行曲) that seems to tell each teacher “You have to end class now”.
60 seconds together every time.
All the students welcome the new bell. Chen Yong, a student, said, "We tried many ways to stop teachers before, but nothing worked. It's better now. When the folk music is on, teachers know that class is going to be over in one minute. "
ShenHuimin, a teacher at No. 8, agrees that the new bell is creative. "In the past, we usually wanted to add a few words after class. But we often forgot the time," Shen said. "The new bell reminds us twice. It's a small change, but it's really solving a big problem. "

Hello! My name is Li Ming. Here is my invention, a Language Interpreter. It's the same size as a cellphone. But it is very useful. If you input the language you want to translate into, and then make a short speech, it can translate what you want within 5 to 10 seconds. You can talk with foreigners easily with the help of it. But it can only translate several languages. I'll work hard to improve it. I'm sure it will translate more and more languages in the near future. Thanks for listening!。
