The first day will be spent outdoors learning technical skills, returning to town for the evening. Day 2 we will meet at IMCS, sort and pack equipment, decide on food and prepare ourselves to head up to Mount Washington where we will set up camps, cook dinner and spend the night.

Medha Gupta sometimes felt worried making the 20-minute walk from the comer where the school bus dropped her off to her home in Hemdon, Va. — especially during the colder months in winter.
Her mother, Divya Gupta had a suggestion: Write an app. She was half-kidding, but Medha took the challenge seriously. So she went to work.
The result was Safe Travel, an app designed by Medha to help walkers feel more secure when traveling alone. Using
the iPhone, a person can program it to send a warning to someone he or she trusts if he or she fails to arrive at a destination within a certain time.
It was the first iOS app that Medha had created. While she didn't think much would come from the project, her effort caught the eye of judges for the annual Congressional App Challenge, who selected her as the winner for Virginia's 10th District.
The App Challenge is designed to encourage students to consider careers in science, technology, engineering, and math by experimenting with coding and computer science. Winning students are invited to attend a reception on Capitol Hill in April and also received $250 in Amazon Web Service credits.
Medha said it took her about 40 hours to design, program and test the app. As for her next app? Medha's not certain. She temporarily has her app-development ambitions on hold because she's busy teaching herself artificial intelligence to help deal with improper words on Facebook. Yes, she knows that there are teams of engineers probably doing the same thing. But she figures it can't hurt her own part, too.
\stopping us from doing something is ourselves.\
4. Why did Medha Gupta feel worried?
A. It took a long time to walk home. B. It was colder than ever in winter. C. It was unsafe to walk home alone. D. It was difficult to write an app. 5. What does the underlined phrase \
A. Delayed. B. Developed. 6. What is Medha's attitude to the challenge?
A. Curious.
B. Sensitive. C. Uncertain. D. Optimistic.
7. What's the main idea of the text?
A. Medha registered for the App Challenge. B. Medha designed Safe Travel successfully.
C. The App Challenge directs students how to choose careers. D. An app guides walkers home.

Spaniards (西班牙人) have their own dining timeline which is very different from most countries. Breakfast in the Spanish culture is easily the least important meal of the day, occurring first thing in the morning until about 10:00 am. Many Spaniards skip breakfast but if they do have breakfast, it will likely be something light and simple which may consist of coffee, hot chocolate or fresh squeezed orange juice accompanied by a piece of toast with jam. After such a light breakfast, from around 10:30 am to noon, bars are full of workers for their morning coffee breaks enjoying a drink and a small snack to help them survive until lunch time.
Lunch, the most important meal of the day, generally consists of several courses starting with a light first course such as soup or salad, a heavier second course of meat or fish, fruit or dessert, followed by bread and also wine and water.
Lunch and the famous nap (打盹) time occur from 2 pm until 4 pm. Most shops and companies close during this time to allow their workers to make their way home to eat. Although this pause still exists, the famous nap time is rarely used for sleeping but rather transportation as people gradually live farther and farther away from their workplaces.
Due to this midday lunch break, many workers do not leave their work until around 8 pm. Typically, this is when they will have a small snack to get them through until dinner time. Dinner, similar to lunch but usually lighter, is a late affair in Spain which is normally served from 9 pm to 10:30 pm. In the summer time it is common to see Spaniards sitting down to eat as late as 12 pm!
8. Which is usually served after soup at lunch?
A. A glass of juice. B. A cup of wine. A. From 2 pm to 4 pm.
C. A piece of steak. D. A plate of salad. B. From 4 pm to 8 pm.
9. When do most shops and companies keep open after lunch in Spain?
C. Suspected. D. Satisfied.
C. From 2 pm to 9 pm. 10. What can we learn from the text?
D. From 9pm to 12pm.
A. Spaniards are too busy to have breakfast. B. Spaniards usually have a nap for 2 hours. C. Spaniards usually finish their work at 9 pm. D. Spaniards think their lunch the most important. 11. What could be the best title for the text?
A. A Busy Workday of the Spanish C. Unique Dining Customs in Spain
B. Foods Served at Meals in Spain D. Comfortable Life of the Spanish D
Bats are the only mammals (哺乳动物) that can fly a great distance, but they have another ability. Many bats live a very long time for an animal of their size. European researchers are studying bats to understand why they live so long. They hope to make discoveries aimed at fighting the aging process in human beings.
Last week, the group of scientists said they had discovered important biological qualities in some bat species. The group studied bat chromosomes (染色体). The scientists were most interested in structures connected to the ends of the chromosomes. They are called telomeres (端粒), which shorten each time a cell divides. The scientists believe this shortening process causes cells to break down. They say this is what causes aging.
The European researchers studied 493 bats from four bat species. The group used information that had been gathered over more than 60 years. Of these animals, the greater mouse-eared bat generally lived an average of 37 years. The scientists said it had telomeres that did not shorten with age. Another Myotis bat holds the record for oldest age, reaching 41 years. The scientists' findings suggest that these bats' cells have the ability to keep and repair their telomeres. This, they said, helps guard against the aging process.
Based on its body size, a bat like the greater mouse-eared bat would be expected to live four years. But, these mammals have been found to live nearly 10 times longer than that. The scientists found that only 19 species of mammals live longer than humans when their body size is considered. Eighteen of these are bats. The only exception is an unusual African rat.
12. What decides bats' aging process according to the text?
A. The length of telomeres. C. The types of chromosomes. A. 19 years. B. 37 years. 14. We can learn from the text that _____.
A. the scientists have studied bats for more than six decades B. nineteen kinds of bats could live longer than humans C. the bats studied in the research are of the same species D. researchers focus on finding out why humans live long 15. In which column of a magazine can you read the text?
A. Lifestyle.
B. Business.
C. Science. D. Fashion.
