I always knew that it was important to understand French background and heritage(遗产) but nothing prepared me for the way I would feel when living abroad.

I pondered 7 why this was so for the first few weeks and then came to realize that it was because I wasn’t from here, I was a foreigner 8 .

1. My iPhone has destroyed my brain. I used to listen in meetings; now I browse the Internet. I don’t text people using proper sentences anymore; I use ugly contractions such as “def” or “prob”, and that’s when I’m not resorting to smiley faces and winks. When did mobile devices become so dangerously addictive? My arrival in China coincided with the early days of smartphones, and I remember constantly chiding any friends who dared check the Internet while I was talking to them ?or even if I was simply present. I’ve shared a cinema with someone who, having grown bored of the movie they had paid to see, began watching a different one on their iPhone, sans earphones. It took all the mental strength I had, not to reach over, grab it from their
hands and throw the device at the screen. I reserved the worst comment for people who checked their phones at the dinner table. Slowly but surely, though, I have become what I loathe the most: A smartphone bore, the kind of person who will bury themselves in the news or e-mails or Twitter or Sina Micro-blogging rather than talk to the people they are with. What’s the solution for people who want to kick the habit? According to psychiatrist Jeremy Spiegel, writing in Psychology Today, it’s quite simple: Go out and leave the phone at home, he suggests. “Over time, expanding your digital downtime from one hour to larger chunks of time, the heart rate slows down, you’re less on edge.” We used to have mystery in our lives without smartphones. When we left the house, people didn’t know where we were and we’d have something to tell them when we saw them. Now they can track our every move. We were also less likely to cancel a date with friends because it wasn’t as easy as sending “soz, can’t make it” on WeChat. So I’m going to try and unplug everything now and again, to save my brain. I just hope I don’t miss anything.
Now I usually play with my smartphone instead of listening in meetings. (A) T (B) F
When I arrived in China, I was not tolerant toward those who dared check the Internet when I was talking to them.(A) T (B) F
I could enjoy the film when other people watched a different one on their iPhone without earphones in the cinema.(A) T (B) F
Now it is easier than before to cancel a date with friends because it is easy to say: “sorry, I cannot make it.” (A) T (B) F
According to the psychiatrist, if you go out and leave the phone at home, you will be very nervous.(A) T (B) F

2. Informed conversations about self-driving cars no longer are about feasibility. New key talking points are “When?” and “Which automakers first?” and “Who will be responsible when an accident happens?” Nissan has said it will sell a driverless car by 2020. IHS forecast several models available by 2025. Both of these are guesses?but they indicate how fast the technology is progressing. What seemed unimaginable a decade ago becomes more practical, comprehensible, and real by the day. Google's (GOOG) self-driving Toyota Prius (TM) has logged hundreds of thousands of miles without incident on California roads. Most automakers are testing self-driving cars on tracks and ?lately, as I experienced earlier this week in Las Vegas ? in traffic. The Audi A7
equipped with “traffic jam assist” was programmed to drive itself slowly in heavy traffic at no more than 40 miles per hour. (Dr. Bjorn Giesler, head of Audi's project team, was behind the wheel.) The car was loaded with cameras, sensors, and a special device that monitors a driver's eyes to ensure he or she doesn't fall asleep at the wheel. In that event, the car will safely slow down, stop, and call for help. Think of a driverless car as a robot. For Audi and other automakers, a key question is how much of the driving should be done by the robot, how much by the driver. The driver decides. Executives at Audi and other automakers say the driver, in any case, must remain engaged and attentive, ready to take over in the event of the unexpected: a car travelling the wrong way or out of control, for example. Audi executives won't use the word “driverless;” instead they speak about “piloted” driving. Other auto executives talk about “autonomous” or “assisted” driving. Only Google is adamant that it wants a driverless car, one that can help the elderly and the blind, as well as anyone who would rather be reading a book.
When it comes to self-driving car, which of the following is NOT the frequent topic?(A) When it is put into use. (B) Which automakers will first produce self-driving car. (C) Whether it is feasible. (D) Who will be responsible when an accident happens.
Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?(A) IHS claimed that there would be several models in 2025. (B) Google's (GOOG) self-driving Toyota Prius (TM) has been tested. (C) Audi A7 can monitor a driver's eyes to ensure he or she doesn't fall asleep at the wheel. (D) Self-driving car has been in use.
As for driverless car, decide(s) how much of the driving should be done by the car.(A) drivers (B) automakers (C) executives (D) nobody
According to the passage, drivers must even in driverless driving.(A) sleep (B) be attentive (C) take photos (D) do reading
According to Audi executives, which word is NOT proper for self-driving?(A) driverless (B) piloted (C) assisted (D) autonomous

3. You might think that the topic of “taking the bus” is a weird one to choose for this blog. And you might be right but taking the bus in Latin America is always a fascinating experience. In the UK, bus journeys are just boring and, more often than not, a necessity. Public transport is often convenient when you live or work in the city centre, as you can avoid traffic jams by whizzing
