A Steve Jobs, the former chief executive of Apple, announced his resignation as head of Apple on Aug.24, 2011.The following is the letter from Steve Jobs to the Apple board.
To the Apple Board of Directors and the Apple Community: I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know.Unfortunately, that day has come. I hereby resign as CEO of Apple.I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee. As far as my successor(继任者)goes, I strongly recommend that we execute(执行)our succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO of Apple. I believe Apple’s brightest and most innovative(创意改革的)days are ahead of it.And I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role. I have made some of the best friends of my life at Apple, and I thank you all for the many years of being able to work alongside you. Steve Tim Cook, the newly appointed CEO of Apple, sent an email to the troops after Steve Jobs stepped down.Below is the full text of the email.
Team: I am looking forward to the amazing opportunity of serving as CEO of the most innovative company in the world.Joining Apple was the best decision I’ve ever made and it’s been the privilege of a lifetime to work for Apple and Steve for over 13 years.I share Steve’s optimism for Apple’s bright future.

Tim 1

C Working outside the International Space Station(ISS), an astronaut is suddenly hit by a piece of space debris(碎片)that damages his spacesuit.Alarmed, he realizes he’s just seconds from disaster.Moving fast, his prepared robot partner slaps(拍打)an auto-patch over the tear in his spacesuit.Huge sighs of relief fill the ISS.Inside, the astronaut responsible for saving the spacewalker’s life controls everything the robot avatar has done — including rescuing its human partner — while it works outside the space station. R2:The Real Deal A robot companion can come in handy to space travelers, whether they’re as far away as Mars or as close as a space station or moon base.Space-travelling avatars, controlled remotely by humans are still a concept.But earlier in the year 2011, NASA sent a humanoid robot into space for the first time.It’s called R2, short for Robonaut 2.The robot was delivered by the space shuttle Discovery and will remain on the ISS to be tested.
NASA expects robots like R2 to be a huge help to astronauts.“Our goal is for robots to work side by side with humans,” says NASA’s Matt Ondler.R2 is controlled by humans using laptops. It’s programmed to perform a number of small tasks, such as “find an object.” In most situations, humans are still far better with their hands than 4
robots.But that’s not necessarily true in space, where astronauts must wear bulky spacesuits and heavy gloves.And since they don’t need to eat, breathe, or go to the bathroom, robonauts have the advantage for lengthy jobs.
R2 isn’t ready for spacewalks yet, but NASA hopes that future improvements will make this possible.“Robonauts will help our astronauts with the three D’s: jobs that are dirty, dull, and dangerous,” says Ondler. To The Moon Someday the space agency hopes to send R2 to the moon.Sending a robot to the moon will befar less expensive than sending a human.A robot is stronger, can survive in tighter spaces, and doesn’t need air.Even better, robots don’t care how long it takes for NASA to return them to Earth.
Once on the moon, the robonaut could perform experiments, send live video back to Earth, talk to classrooms full of kids, and explore the lunar surface.R2 will be able to move using legs, or by attaching its torso(躯干)to a four-wheeled rover(探测器)and becoming part of vehicle.And when R2’s battery is low, it can plug into a solar-powered recharging station and get some much-needed juice.All in all, a pretty sweet life for a humble robot!The future R2 would be designed to operate by itself.But for difficult tasks, a human operator would control it like an avatar in a video game.NASA will need people skilled at operating robonauts to ensure the success of future missions.So the next time your mom complains that you’re spending too much time on video games, just tell her you’re training for a job with NASA.
51.In paragraph1, the writer gives a detailed description of a space accident to .
A.stress the danger of an astronaut’s walk in space
B.tell readers the unforgettable experience of an astronaut C.show his concern for the present situation of space walk D.introduce what robots are likely to do for astronauts 52.Why does the writer say Robonaut 2 is “The Real Deal”?
A.It may have the advantage for complex and small tasks at low costs.
B.It has been programmed to help astronauts with three D’s.
C.It is flexible and can be easily controlled by humans beings.
D.It proves to be a good companion for space travelers.
53.By saying“All in all, a pretty sweet life for a humble robot!”, the writer means that .
A.an ordinary robot will be able to move freely in comfortable surroundings B.an ordinary robot will enjoy a comfortable life in space like humans on Earth C.a future robot will explore the moon easily by using a four-wheeled rover D.a future robot is stronger and will handle any difficulty in space easily 54.It can be learned from the passage that .
A.the future R2 will perform experiments without human control 5
B.humans are much smarter with their hands than robots in space C.someday humans might control an avatar on the moon D.sending a human to the moon will cost far less than sending a robot
D The end of my sophomore year was approaching.Mom called me at the dorm one evening during the last week of May.My summer break would be spent with grandma and grandpa, helping out around their farm.The arrangement made good sense to all the family.I wasn’t fully convinced of that myself but guessed it was just one summer.Next year would be my little brother’s turn.
I arrived late that afternoon.Grandma had fixed more food than the three of us could possibly eat.She loved me entirely too much.The next morning, Grandpa fixed breakfast for the two of us. He told me Grandma had tired herself out yesterday and was going to rest in bed a little longer.I made a mental note to myself to not ask her to do things for me while I was there.I was there to help, not be a burden.
Weeks passed.I gradually settled into a routine of daily work with Grandpa.In the evenings I usually read or talked with Grandma.She never grew tired of hearing about college or anything I was involved in.She told me stories about her childhood, family and the early years after she and Grandpa had married.
The last Saturday in June, Grandpa suggested going fishing.We hadn’t expected what we saw when we got to the pond that morning: One of the swans was dead.Grandpa had given the pair of swans to Grandma on their 50th anniversary.“Why don’t we see about buying another one,” I suggested, hoping the situation could somehow be righted.Grandpa thought for a few moments before answering.
He finally said, “no...it’s not that easy, Bruce.You see, swans mate for life.” He raised his finger to point, holding the fishing pole in his other hand.“There’s nothing we can do for the one that’s left.He has to work it out for himself.”
A few days later, we drove by the pond while doing our morning check on the cows.We found the other swan lying near the same spot we had found the first one.It, too, was dead.
The month of July started with me and Grandpa putting up a new stretch of fence.Then July 12 came.That was the day Grandma passed away.Grandma had died suddenly that morning of a stroke.By the afternoon, my parents were there.The old house was soon crowded with relatives and Grandpa’s friends.
The funeral was held the next day.Grandpa had insisted on having it as soon as possible.On the second day after the funeral, Grandpa announced at the breakfast table, “This is a working farm. We have a lot of things to do.The rest of you should get back to your own lives.” Most of the family had already left, but this was Grandpa’s way of telling the rest it was time for them to go home.My parents were the last to leave after lunch.
Grandpa was not a man who could outwardly express his grief around others, and we all worried about him.The rest of the summer flowed by.We stayed busy working.I thought 6
there was something different about Grandpa but couldn’t quite put my finger on it.
September was nearing, and part of me did not want to leave.I thought of skipping the fall semester and staying around a few more months.When I mentioned it, grandpa quickly told me that my place was back at college.
The day finally came for me to pack my car and leave.I shock his hand and chanced a hug.As Idrove down the driveway, I saw him in the rearview mirror.He waved to me and then walked to the pasture gate to start the morning livestock check.
Mom called me at school on a stormy October day to tell me Grandpa had died.A neighbor had stopped by that morning for coffee and found him in the kitchen.He died of a stroke, the same as Grandma.At that moment, I understood what he’d clumsily tried to explain to me about the swan on that morning we fished together by the pond. 55.We can learn from Paragraph 1 that .
A.Bruce regarded working on the farm as a rare chance B.Bruce longed to enjoy himself freely on the farm C.the brothers took turns to attend their grandparents D.Bruce was not happy with his parents’ arrangement
56.What did the writer think at the sight of the first dead swan? A.Another swan should be bought in place of the dead one.
B.The other was bound to die since swans mate for life.
C.Grandma would be in deep sorrow over its death.
D.The living can do nothing for the dead.
57.Grandpa quickly dismissed the family after the funeral because .
A.he wanted to carry on with his farm work B.he tended to deal with grief in life by himself C.he didn’t want his normal life disturbed
D.he took for granted the matter of life and death 58.By “I couldn’t put my fingers on it”, the writer means that .
A.I could do nothing to help him out of grief B.I was so busy that I couldn’t give a hand to Grandpa
C.I couldn’t tell exactly what was different about my Grandpa
D.I stayed busy working and couldn’t keep Grandpa’s company 59.Which of the following best describes Grandpa’s character?
A.Outgoing, clumsy and considerate. B.Loyal, considerate and independent.
C.Talkative, clumsy and independent. D.Romantic, outgoing and loyal. 60.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A.Mate For Life B.Unforgettable Summer Break C.Death of Swans D.Everlasting Love Story

For those who are tired of doing the laundry,Samsung has found an answer:a washing machine that can tell you when your laundry is done via a smartphone app(application).Strange though it may seem—“my wife already does that”was a common response among attendees viewing the device when it was introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show(CES)this week—Samsung is just one of many appliance makers racing to install(安装)a large number of internet-connected features in machines in an effort to make them “smart”.Last year,it was a refrigerator that tweeted.This year,it’s Wi-Fi-enabled laundry machines and fridges that can tell you when your groceries are going bad.The washers and dryers,available starting in the spring,connect to any smartphone through a downloadable application.The phone can then be used as a remote control,so the machines can be turned on and off while their owner is at work or on the bus.Samsung says it’s not just something new—the app connection actually has some practical uses.“If you started to dry clothes in the morning and forgot to take them out,you can go to your phone and restart your dryer for the time when you come home,so your clothes are refreshed and ready to go,” said spokesperson Amy Schmidt.The company also says that with electricity rates(电价)varying depending on the time of day,more control over when the machines are used can help save money.Perhaps,but what they will probably really accomplish is what all good technologies do—enable laziness.Rather than getting up to check on whether the laundry is done,users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV.1.What can be inferred from the common response of the attendees at the CES?()A.The machine will be a big success.B.Their wives like doing the laundry.C.The machine is unrelated to their life.D.This kind of technology is familiar to them.2.What can we learn about the new laundry machines?()A.They can tell you when your clothes need washing.B.They can be controlled with a smartphone.C.They are difficult to operate.D.They are sold at a low price.3.We can conclude from Samsung’s statements that

from depression often have problems sleeping,getting up on time,and doing work productively.Depression,which researchers agree has its origin in the genes,brings loss of confidence and ability to concentrate—making it impossible for employees and managers to work efficiently.Depression is made more serious in China by Chinese’s inability to face it.Many people believe that depressed people are either weak or lazy.Besides,there is no good treatment,with few specialists available.“Most patients in China just don’t get help,”a Chinese doctor says.“In my hospital,I have to see 30 or 40 patients in a morning,just have time to say ‘Hello,how do you feel?’”
In Western countries,people are not afraid to admit that they have depression,but most do not tell it to their boss,because they fear that they will be stricken_off_the_rolls.“In my experience,aging bosses are the most willing to admit they have it.Because they feel the most secure about themselves,” an American doctor says.Hopefully,in the near future,people around the world will be able to admit that they have depression so that they can get the right treatment.1.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

2017年职称英语(卫生类)考试之阅读理解每日一练(12月13日)
阅读理解第一题:
I was searching for just the right word to describe this book; a word that describes something that is perhaps somewhat sad,but in a good way.I couldn‘t find quite the right word,but I do know the feeling.This book does make me feel a bit sad.Sad for the way that childhood passes so quickly,sad for days that go by,faster than we‘d like them to.But it also makes me feel the sweetness of these things and helps me remember that childhood imagination,freedom and joy are things that we can carry with us still,long after our days as children have passed.Which of the following is true about the author‘s feeling of the book? A.It makes him feel sad for his childhood is sad.B.It makes him feel sad because he didn‘t remember his happy childhood.C.He couldn‘t describe the book,for he doesn’t know the feeling.D.He realizes that childhood imagination,freedom and joy are things that he can carry even when he is an adult.【正确答案】 D 【答案解析】 答案选D.细节理解题。通过本段第二句I couldn‘t find quite the right word,but I do know the feeling„„可排除C.通过第四句Sad for the way that childhood passes so quickly可以知道他感觉悲伤是因为童年时光匆匆而过,而不是因为他的童年是悲伤的,文中并未提及。所以A不对。同理文中也并未提及他感到悲伤是以为他没有了童年的回忆,故B也不对。而可以通过最后一句话得出D是对的。
阅读理解第二题:
It had been boring hanging about the hotel all afternoon.The road crew were playing a game with dollar notes.Folding them into small planes to see whose would fly the furthest.Having nothing better to do,I joined in and won five,and then took the opportunity to escape with my profit.Despite the evil-looking clouds,I had to get out for a while.Why did the writer want to leave the hotel A.To enjoy the good weather.B.To have a change of scene.C.To spend all his winnings.D.To get away from the crew.【正确答案】B 【答案解析】 答案选B.本题的问题是:为什么作者想要离开宾馆?由本段第一句可以得出答案。在宾馆是十分无聊的,最后一句也写出作者不顾天气不好而想要出去走走,AC选项错误,D选项未提及。
阅读理解第三题: Most of us walk and carry items in our hands every day.These are seemingly simple www.xiexiebang.com
activities that the majority of us don‘t question.But an international team of researchers,including Dr.Richmond from GW’s Columbian College of Arts and Sciences,have discovered that human walking upright may have originated millions of years ago as an adaptation to carrying scarce,high-quality resources.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the first two paragraphs A.Many people question the simple human activities of walking and carrying items.B.Chimpanzee‘s behaviors may suggest why humans walk on two legs.C.Human walking upright is viewed as an adaptation to carrying precious resources.D.Our ancestors‘ecological conditions resembled those of modern-day chimpanzees’。
