12、 On March 28th, the New York Times will begin charging all but the most infrequent users to read articles online.
In a letter to readers, Arthur Sulzberger, Jr., the publisher of the paper, laid out the details of the paywall, which he said will go into effect immediately in Canada and on March 28th for the rest of the world. He called the move "an important step that we hope you will see as an investment in the Times, one that will strengthen our ability to provide high quality journalism to readers around the world and on any platform."
Sulzberger said that readers will be able to read 20 articles per month at no charge. Once they click on the 21st piece, however, they'll be presented with three payment options: $ 15 for four weeks of online and mobile application access, $ 20 for access to the site and the iPad application, or $ 35 for access to everything. People who already receive the printed paper through home delivery will enjoy free and unlimited access to the Times on all platforms.
These details largely agree with earlier reports on how the paywall would work. The Times had made it clear that it did not want to imitate the total paywalls put into effect by papers such as The Times of London and Newsday, which block access to all contents unless the reader pays.
The paper also signaled that it wants to stay relevant in the social media world. According to Sulzberger's announcement, people who come to the Times site from Facebook, Twitter or from blogs will be able to read those articles even if they have gone over their monthly limit.
However, Sulzberger said that a limit will be placed on "some search engines", meaning that after readers have accessed a certain number of articles from search engines, any further articles they access from there will be added to their monthly count. It was reported that the only search engine that will be affected this way is Google, where there will be a five-article limit. This marks a clear attempt by the Times to close what could be a giant loophole(漏洞), since so much online traffic is directed through Google. But it also presents a risk for the Times for the same reason.
Sulzberger seems well aware of the risk. "The challenge now is to put a price on our work without walling ourselves off from the global network." he said, adding that the Times must "continue to engage with the widest possible audience".
1.The author's main purpose of the text is to ________.
A.describe research findings
B.make advertisements
C.report a piece of news
D.suggest a solution
2.Why will the Times charge their online readers?
A.It wants to stay relevant in the social media world.
B.It has too many readers coming from the other sites.
C.It is trying a way to offer better service to its readers.
D.It is seeking new financial sources for its development.
3.Who will be limited to the New York Times articles?
A.Those subscribing to the printed newspapers.
B.Readers clicking through from Facebook.
C.Those using Google search engine.
D.Readers paying $ 35 a month.
13、 Big data of the human face can make a difference. Technology is rapidly catching up with the human ability to read faces. Apple's iPhone X has already used face recognition to unlock the home screen. Face recognition is becoming increasingly common in China, where it has been equipped at ATM and KFC restaurants. It is also used by shop owners to catch shoplifters.
Some universities are using face recognition technology as a means to keep track of the students' attendance in the classrooms. Students stand in front of a screen when they walk into lecture halls. Photos taken at the screen are matched with those logged in the university's database. It's believed that the system is highly accurate(精确的) because it can identify students even if they change their hair or wear makeup. Students have joked that face recognition is so strict that they don't dare to skip classes anymore. The traditional way of taking attendance is through a roll call. The new system helps to improve efficiency
(效率).
Face recognition technology has already been used in different fields in China. Police have set up face recognition scanners at busy crossroads to catch jaywalkers, whose photos will be shown on the digital screen as a warning. In the hotels of Wuzhen attractions, face scanner-equipped gates identify tourists staying in its hotels. The data collected will then serve as Entry Pass through the town's various attractions. Tourists do not have to pay extra entrance fee. Face recognition has also been in business use in China Alipay, for example, is using its face recognition technology to help customers at a Hangzhou KFC branch order food: The camera in the KFC will check customers' face against the ID card photos linked to their Alipay accounts.
Face recognition is expected to be used in all sorts of fields. It is going to become part of your life if it isn't already.

答案：
基础篇
Today I want to blog about a question that has been discussed many times—whether students can surf the Internet in the classroom. We know our principal and teachers are afraid that we may visit unhealthy websites.
Actually, every coin has two sides. We still think that surfing the Internet can bring us much more benefits and it is more convenient for our study. Firstly, I think it would be better if we can surf the Internet, because there are a wide range of learning resources on the Internet. Secondly, we can keep track of various news online. Finally, as high school students, we are forming our judgment and we will keep what our principal and teachers say in mind. Given chances, we are sure that we will learn how to stay away from unhealthy websites.
I really hope we can have a chance to surf the Internet and our principal and teachers can take my suggestion into consideration and make a final decision.
