22．8分） Ashley Power's mother bought a computer for her when she was eight. When she was thirteen, she was surfing the Internet on a regular basis, but she couldn't find anywhere for teenagers to meet and talk. And one day she thought, "If I had my own website, I'd make it a really interesting site for teenagers."
Consequently, when Ashley was sixteen, she started her own website called GooseHead. She had no idea how big a success it would be, but three years later, the site was the most successful teen site in the USA! It was getting 100,000 hits every day, and Ashley had about 30 employees.

I hope you can work that out yourself," she says."I just want to provide a little inspiration to teenagers. Maybe after reading my story, you'll start your own website! But perhaps you' ve got a better idea? Well, if I were you, I'd just do it, whatever it is. Maybe it won't work—but maybe it will."

24．（8分） The new president of Harvard University is the son of an Eastern European refugee and Auschwitz (奥斯威辛) survivor — Lawrence S. Bacow. His father worked full time while attending a state college in Detroit at night to earn his degree.
Bacow, the former president of Tufts University, has taken over Harvard at a time when higher education is under attack for being financially out of reach to many Americans. But Bacow said his family’s journey had reflected the power of college education to transform generations and the opportunities that have historically been available in the United States.
“My parents came to this country with almost nothing,” Bacow said. “I wouldn’t be here if this country had not been open to people like my parents at that time. Nor would I if my father hadn’t had the opportunity to get the college education.”
Bacow grew up in Pontiac, Michigan. His father’s family fled anti-Jewish (反犹太的) violence in Minsk, then part of the Soviet Union, before the start of World War II and went to the United States. His mother arrived in Brooklyn at age 19, having survived Auschwitz concentration camp. She was the only Jew from her town to have survived the war. Yet Bacow, who is married with two sons, said that while growing up in Michigan, he had a happy childhood, entering science fairs as a child and building radios like his dad.
Bacow has spent most of his professional career at MIT, Harvard and Tufts. He was a professor of environmental studies at MIT, and later a principal at the university. He led Tufts from 2001 to 2011. At Tufts, Bacow earned a reputation for shaking up a sleepy university that was being overshadowed by its peers in Boston. He is also credited with leading it through both 9/11 and the 2008 financial crisis.
As the Tufts president, Bacow traveled around the country, reaching out to alumni (校友), and he urged his faculty and deans to do the same, in an effort to boost donations to finance Tufts’ academic ambitions. He raised more than $20 million for faculty recruitment, attracting up-and-coming professors by offering junior faculty perks (福利), such as long academic leaves that they couldn’t get elsewhere.
Under Bacow’s leadership, Tufts spent millions on labs and libraries. He also made addresses nationally about the need to make higher education more accessible and affordable to low-income students.
1、The reason why Bacow appreciates college education is that .
A．college education is out of reach to many Americans
B．his family changed their fate due to college education
C．few opportunities were available when his father came into the country
D．a college degree helped his mother survive Auschwitz
2、What can we infer from the passage?
A．The fellow townspeople of Bacow were all killed besides his mother.
B．Bacow’s mother stimulated his interest in science.
C．Bacow’s father was good at working with electronics.
D．Bacow’s father came to the U.S. after World War II broke out.
3、The underlined word “shaking up” in paragraph 5 probably means .
A．reactivating B．causing C．damaging D．taking over
4、What is this passage mainly about?
A．How to be admitted to Harvard University. B．The history of Bacow’s family.
C．The art of Bacow’s leadership in Tufts. D．Bacow’s way to individual success.
25．（10分） Moving smoothly and silently through Alibaba Group Holding Ltd’s futuristic “FlyZoo”hotel，black disc-shaped robots about a metre in height deliver food and drop off fresh towels．
The robots are part of a set of high-tech tools that Alibaba says strongly cuts the hotel’s cost of human labour and eliminates the need for guests to interact with other people．
Formally opened to the public last month，the 290-room FlyZoo is an incubator for technology Alibaba wants to sell to the hotel industry in the future and an opportunity to showcase its prowess in artificial intelligence．It is also an experiment that tests consumer comfort levels with unmanned commerce in China．
Inside the hotel，softly-lit white panelled walls bring to mind the interiors of Hollywood spaceships．Guests check in at podiums that scan their faces，as well as passports or other ID．Visitors with a Chinese national ID can scan their faces using their smartphones to check in ahead of time．
Elevators scan guests’faces again to verify which floor they can access and hotel room doors are opened with another face scan．
“It’s very quick and safe．I haven’t used it much yet，but basically，I can be in my room in one minute，”said guest Tracy Li．Li added that safety was one of her priorities and she was pleased her room could only be entered with a scan of her face．
In the rooms，Alibaba’s voice command technology is used to change the temperature，close the curtains，adjust the lighting and order room service．
At the hotel’s restaurant，taller capsule-shaped robots deliver food that guests have ordered via the FlyZoo app while at a separate bar，a large robotic arm can mix more than 20 different types of cocktails．Facial recognition cameras add c
