Through all the ups and downs, I now realize that everything I’ve done, seen, and learned has made me into the person I am today.‎ The field day was the best day ever created. Being good at sports which I had one together with parents seemed to help me find my position at a new school. Despite the hot weather in San Antonio‎, ‎Texas, I had to take outdoor activities.

Now I thank my parents for teaching me these vital principles, which I will have me the rest of my life.‎ I was always the shy girl and afraid to be myself. This didn’t bother me until I reached junior high school, when some girls judged me by what I wore, who I talked to and how skinny I was. I felt like I’d never done anything wrong to deserve such criticism. It was not until last year that I realized that I had to stay different from them and live my life according to my principles. I decided to be my own person. I never thought that being nice could cause me to be disliked. Anyway, I began hanging out with girls who had a lot in common with me like preferring outdoor sports. They were accepting and non-judgmental. I am now content in knowing that I am my own person and don’t let others control my life.‎ ‎24.

But a new study suggests that getting more exercise and sleep may help people better pope with them by, leaving them at work where they belong.‎ Previous research shows that employees who are looked down on or insulted by colleagues are likely, go express their frustrations and behave angrily toward people outside of work, says study co-author Shannon Taylor, a management professor at the University of Central Florida’s College‎ of ‎Business.‎ The new study backs up this idea, but offers a bit of good news as well: Employees who averaged more than 10,500, steps a day or burned at least 2,100 calories were less likely to mistreat their cohabitants than those who averaged fewer steps of burned fewer calories.‎ The findings also revealed that when employees felt they had a bad night’s sleep because of work issues, they were more likely to be bad---tempered at home. “When you’re tired, you’re either less able or less motivated to regulate yourself” says co-author Larissa Barber, a professor of psychology at Northern‎ Illinois ‎University.‎ Physical activity seems to counterbalance poor sleepy, Barber says, because it promotes ‎ healthy brain functions needed to properly regulate emotions and behaviors. “This study suggests that high amounts of exercise can be at least one way to improve the situations brought by sleep troubles that lead to negative behaviors at home,” she says.‎ Barber acknowledges that finding time to work and get a full night’s sleep can be difficult when work pressure is mounting, and that often, job stress can be directly related to sleep quality. But, she says, making the effort to burn some extra calories and blow off some steam can be worth it. It’s not only good for you, says Taylor, but it can benefit the people you live with as well.‎ ‎28. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 1 refer to?‎ A. Loved people at home. B. Negative emotions.‎ C. Different work pressures. D. More exercise and sleep.‎ ‎29. Who will most probably behave angrily to family members?‎ A. A person who is always treated badly by coworkers.‎ B. A person who often goes to the gym to work out.‎ C. A person who often argues with colleagues.‎ D. A person who always is easy to get tired.‎ ‎30. The underlined word “counterbalance” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to “________”.‎ A. make use of B. take control of C. make up for D. keep up with ‎31. What can we learn from the text?‎ A. Work pressure makes no difference in sleep quality.‎ B. How to burn more calories has become a major issue for workers.‎ C. Enough exercise can replaced good sleep in dealing with negative behaviors.‎ D. The amount of calories employees burn affects the frequency of losing temper.‎ D Google, one of the world’s outstanding tech companies, was attacked. It wasn’t its search engine that was attacked or its advertising platform or even its social network. Google. Instead, it was a building.‎ Two web security experts hacked（侵入）into its Wharf 7 office in Sydney, Australia, through Google’s building management system (BMS). One of them, Billy Rios, says, “My colleague and I have lot of experience in web security, but it is not something that people couldn’‎ t learn. Once you understand how the system works, it is very simple.‎ They found the system on Shodan, a search engine that lists devices connected to the Internet, and then ran it through their own software to indentify who owned the building. In the case of the Google hacking, the researchers had no immoral purpose and just informed Google about what they found.‎ According to Mr. Rios, who runs security company Whitescope, there are 50,000 buildings currently connected to the Internet, including research institutes, churches and hospitals, and 2,000 of those are online with password protection, Martyn Thomas, a professor of IT at Gresham College in the UK, says, “It is beyond doubt that attempts to attack building management systems are happening all the time.”‎ Making a building smart generally means connecting the systems that control heating, lighting and security to the Internet and the wider corporate network. There was a strong reason for doing this, said Andrew Kelly, principal security consultant at defence company Qinetiq.‎ ‎“Energy savings are the biggest factor in connecting building management systems to the corporate network,” he says. “It gives those who run the building better control and offers between 20% to 50% in energy savings,” he adds.‎ But it also makes them less secure. And if any of these feels like a Hollywood filmy, think again.‎ ‎32. How did Billy Rios and his colleagues hack Google’s building?‎ A. They invented a search engine and connected it to Google’s building.‎ B. They worked for Google and mastered how the building worked.‎ C. They used Google and mastered how the building worked.‎ D. They connected their own software to the building to run Google.‎ ‎33. In the case of the Google hacking, the researchers had the intention of ________.‎ A. analyzing some immoral problems B. explaining the reasons for energy savings C. entering Google’s building to save more energy D. telling Google about the Wharf 7 office’s hidden danger ‎34. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?‎ A. The building management systems of some buildings are in danger.‎ B. There are many researchers contributing a lot to web security.‎ C. The attack on building management systems happens all over the world.‎ D. There are too many buildings connected to the Internet to be managed well.‎ ‎35.
