Dear Editor,

I am writing to you about the article in your magazine last month about youth crime. As a teenager myself I found the article rather offensive(冒犯的) as it suggested that the largest part of teenagers get into trouble with the police at some time or another. I can honestly say that I have never committed a crime(犯罪) and as far as I know, neither have any of my friends.

I don't know where the journalist got his information from or if he did any proper research, but the way he described teenagers gave me the impression that he doesn't actually know many teenagers. Maybe when he was younger he was regularly in trouble with the police and that's where he got his ideas from. If this is true then he shouldn't judge other people from his own behaviour in the past.

Many teenagers I know always help other people in the community, such as raising money for charity and doing voluntary work. A group of us recently spent an entire Sunday morning picking up litter in our local park. We didn't get paid for it; we just wanted to make it cleaner and safer for everyone, especially as many young children and dog walkers use the park.

Also, as teenagers, we are far too busy studying for exams and doing homework to be \the streets every night, looking for trouble\after school every night during the week. I do get some free time at the weekend but I like to play football, go cycling or swimming, go to the cinema or have coffee with my friends and have a chance to talk to them. I think you will agree that there is nothing criminal about that.

As your magazine is aimed at young readers, I think your journalists should be more careful about what they write and they should research their ideas better, or you may find that teenagers stop buying your magazine altogether.

Yours sincerely, Daniel Browning

24. Why has Daniel written this letter? A. To ask for an apology. B.To offer a different point of view. C. To apologize for his friends’ behavior. D. To persuade people not to buy the magazine. 25. What does Daniel think about the journalist? A. He has never met a teenager. B. He has done much research on his article. C. He doesn't understand young people. D. He was a troublemaker when he was young. 26. Why does Daniel mention the park? A. To describe what the park is like. B. To try to get more people to volunteer. C. To ask the journalists to help clean it. D. To show that he and his friends are responsible. 27. What might Daniel write in his diary about the magazine article?

A. I can't believe how some intelligent adults misunderstand young people. B. I want to be a journalist now after reading such a well-written article. C. I am glad the journalist wrote a letter of apology in the magazine. D. I read an interesting article about youth crime today.

MOOC, a massive(大规模的) open online course, aims at providing interactive discussion and open access via the web. In addition to traditional course materials such as videos, readings, and problem sets, MOOCs provide interactive user forums (论坛) that help build a community for the students, professors, and teaching assistants.

MOOCs first made waves in the fall of 2011, when Professor Sebastian Thrun from Stanford University opened his graduate-level artificial intelligence course up to any student anywhere, and 160,000 students in more than 190 countries signed up. This new kind of online classes is shaking up the higher education world in many ways. Since the courses can be taken by hundreds of thousands of students at the same time, the number of universities might decrease greatly. Professor Thrun has even imagined a future in which there will only need to be 10 universities in the world. Perhaps the most impressive thing about MOOCs, many of which are being taught by professors at prestigious (声誉高的) universities, is that they're free. This is certainly good news for cash-strapped students. There is a lot of excitement and fear about MOOCs. While some say free online courses are a great way to increase the enrollment (注册) of students who are lack of resources, some critics (批评者) have said that MOOCs encourage an unrealistic one-size-fits-all model of higher education and that there is no replacement for true dialogues between professors and their students. After all, a brain is not a computer. We are not blank hard drives waiting to be filled with data. People learn from people they love and remember the things that arouse emotion. Some critics worry that online students will miss out on the social aspects of college. 28. What can we learn about MOOCs? A. It is cheap to take the courses.

B. Most courses are about artificial intelligence. C. They have decreased the number of universities.

D. Many courses are offered by professors from famous universities.

29. The“cash-strapped students”in the second paragraph refers to students who are_________. A. fond of money B. short of money C. careful with money D. familiar with money 30. What might be one of the disadvantages of MOOCs? A. The limited courses offered around the world. B. The disappearance of traditional course materials.

C. The overreliance on professors from good universities. D.The lack of social interaction among students and professors. 31. What is the purpose of the text?

A. To give an introduction of MOOCs. B. To put an advertisement for MOOCs.

C. To describe the influence of artificial intelligence.

D. To express a critical attitude towards artificial intelligence.

Jim Denevan is an amazing artist whose work is admired by all, but owned by none一that's because all of Jim's art is created on an unusual canvas (画布)一the soft sand. He sometimes spends days working on a piece, only to see it washed away by the sea or a storm and that is just the way he likes it.

Denevan discovered his artistic talents about ten years ago, when he was wandering aimlessly on the beach with a stick. He ended up drawing a 12-foot-long fish. Since then, Jim has traveled over 1,800 miles while creating over 600 pieces of sand art.

Over the years, his drawings have become bigger, but the tools he uses haven't changed—All he needs is a stick, a garden rake (耙) and most importantly, his lively imagination!
