We were amazed by the endless view in front of our eye. Later on, unlike other girls, I was volunteered to go waterskiing alone. I took on the life jacket, got off the motor-boat immediately and started my engine as soon as possibly.

 The lake seemed broad and endless. I was so exciting to appreciate the beauty of the mountains and waters that I speed my motor boat. Then, after some time, I found me in the middle of the endless lake. I really enjoyed the unforget?table experience ！

Maurice Mountain is a retired lawyer in Washington D. C. He developed a prototype(原型)for a device he calls Presto Emergency Boat Ladder. His invention is a small folding lad?der that attaches to the side of a boat to help people who fall into the water. Mr Mountain plans to mass-produce his boat ladder.

He created his invention at a workshop called TechShop. Mr Mountain says, "I think it encourages innovation. 1 think people who probably have had ideas rolling around in the back of their minds for years but have never had the opportunity to actually put them into production or even experiment with them would find this place wonderful. Members of TechShop use high-tech equipment to develop and produce ideas they have for inventions. " Isabella Musachio manages a TechShop in Arlington, Virginia. She says the shop has many different kinds of equipment.

"TechShop is a do-it-yourself maker space. So when you come in we have all these different areas of the shop, and we have a metal shop, a wood shop, lasers, 3-D printers, and electronics. I mean, we have so many different areas and we have all the equipment that is available to anybody above the age of 12."

Membership costs for TechShop start at just over $ 100 per month. Members are able to use costly machines inclu?ding 3-D modelling tools and laser cutters. Isabella Musachio says TechShop helps its members build their dreams.

"Our motto is 'build your dreams here' because you can really come in with just an idea, and then with the help of TechShop make that leap from an idea to building your pro?ject on your prototype or even your business.，，

Jim Newton is the founder of TechShop. He first intro?duced the idea for the technology workshops at an arts and sciences event called Maker Faire in San Mateo* California in 2006. His idea attracted hundreds of members during that event. Now, there are eight TechShop locations in the US. In all, there are more than 6，000 members. Two more Tech?Shop locations in the cities of St. Louis and Los Angeles will be set up.

Dear Mr Green,

I am very exciting to learn that you will start a maga?zine. That sounds great and I definitely agree you on that.

    Some of the columns that you mention in the letter are really my cup of tea. Cultural Express give us a better under?standing of the world. Since people from different part of the world have different values, it's necessary to learn from each another. Apart from that, Blurt Out is pretty good for Chi?nese students to learn English idioms and improving oral Eng?lish. Entertainment is also cool！ The popular singers, actors or celebrities are so attractively that you absolutely can't miss this part. Teenagers are to fond of popular things, too.

   Well, I can't list more. I really can't wait to read this magazine.

                                     Yours, Li Ming

B [2015 •安徽合肥第二次質(zhì)襝〗Why do people feel so rushed? Part of this is a perception (感知)problem. Generally, people in rich countries have more free time than they used to. This is particularly true in Europe, but even in America free time has been inching up. Women's paid work has risen a lot over this period,but their time in unpaid work, like cooking and cleaning, has fallen even more significantly, thanks in part to dishwashers, wash?ing machines and microwaves, and also to the fact that men shift themselves a little more around the house than they used to.

   The problem, then, is less how much time people have than how they see it. Ever since a clock was first used at a workplace to record labour hours in the 18th century, time has been understood in relation to money. Once hours are fi?nancially quantified (量 化)， people worry more about wast?ing, but tend to save or use them more profitably. When economies grow and incomes rise, everyone's time becomes more valuable. And the more valuable something becomes, the rarer it seems.

Once seeing their time in terms of money, people often grow stingy with the former to maximize the latter. Workers who are paid by the hour volunteer less of their time and tend to feel more upset when they are not working.

The relationship between time, money and anxiety is something Gary S. Becker noticed in America's post-war boom years. "If anything, time is used more carefully today than a century ago?" he noted in 1965. He found that when people are paid more to work? they tend to work longer hours, because working becomes a more profitable use of time. So the rising value of work time puts pressure on all time. Leisure time starts to seem more stressful, as people are forced to use it wisely or not at all.

5.Women's time in unpaid work has fallen partly because

 A.  men's ability to support their families has been im?proved

B.   men's involvement in housework has increased

C.   women's leisure time was taken up by heavy house?work

D.  women become more skilled at household equipment

6. From the second paragraph, we learn that .

 A. labour hours were recorded with a clock

B. people haven't realized the value of time

C. more work hours bring in more money

D.  the rise of incomes makes time less valuable

7.The underlined phrase "grow stingy with" in Paragraph 3
can probably be replaced by "___________

 A.     refuse to delay

B.     intend to kill

C.     try to accumulate

D.     hesitate to spend

8. According to Gary Becker, what causes people feel anx?ious about time?

 A.     The wrong way of time being spent.

B.     People's willingness to work hard.

C.     The increasing value of work time.

D.     More and more leisure time.

Shirley Temple Black, who lifted America's spirits as a bright-eyed child movie star during the Great Depression, peacefully passed away at her California home on February 10， 2014 at 85， surrounded by her family and caregivers.

Temple, born on April 23， 1928， started her entertain?ment career in the early 1930s and was famous by age 6. Temple was 3 when her mother put her in a dance school, where a talent scout spotted her and got her in Baby Bur-lesks ， a series of short movies with child actors playing in adult movies.

Movie studio directors took notice of her and in 1934 she appeared in the film Stand Up and Cheer ！ and her song and dance caught people's attention. Movies such as Little Miss Marker and Bright Eyes featured her signature song. In 1935， she received a special Oscar for her "outstanding con?tribution to screen entertainment" in the movie Stand Up and Cheer ！

She made some 40 feature movies, including The Little Colonel ， Poor Little Rich Girl ， Rebecca of Sunnyhrook Farm, in 10 years, starring with big-name actors like Ran?dolph Scott, Lionel Barrymore and Jimmy Durante.

Temple was only 17 when she married to John Agar, who eventually appeared with her in two movies. Their five-year marriage produced a daughter. In 1950 she wed Charles Black in a marriage that lasted until his death in 2005. She and Black had two children.
