Did you know that a bowl of rice could save your iPod if you drop it in a swimming pool by accident?
Or that the camera on your phone could tell you what"s wrong with your TV remote control? The experts
at Geek Squad (geelsquad.co.uk) have made a gadget (小机件) rescue guide. So, let"s take a look at some
of their useful advice.
● How to get more juice out of your phone battery (电池)
If your battery goes dead but you need to get a number or send one last text, try warming it up. That
may give you a tiny bit of power. Take the battery from the phone and rub it between your hands. Or warm
it under your arm for a few minutes. Then try to start the phone-but use it quickly.
● What to do if your gadget gets wet
First, try drying it out with a vacuum cleaner. If a vacuum cleaner isn"t at hand, fill a pot or bowl with
uncooked rice and put your wet gadget inside. The dry, uncooked rice will absorb all the water and, after
a few hours, you should be able to use the gadget: Don"t forget to remove the battery and SIM card before
you dry it.
● What to do if your TV remote control stops working
If replacing the batteries doesn"t work, get the camera function up on your phone and point the remote
at the lens (镜头). When you press a button on the remote, if it is working, the glass bobble (小球) at the
front of the remote will light up when you look at it on the screen of your phone. This is because the screen
on a phone or digital camera picks up infrared rays (红外线), even though your eyes don"t. If the glass bobble
doesn"t light up, the remote is broken. If it does, the receiving device is broken. | | 1. If your cell phone falls into a sink, you can _____. | | [ ] | A. warm it up under your arm
B. put it into the uncooked rice
C. press it with both of your hands
D. remove the battery after you dry it | | 2. Why can a phone be used to prove the TV remote control works well? | | [ ] | A. Because it can receive infrared ray.
B. Because it can reflect infrared ray.
C. Because it can improve the TV remote control.
D. Because it can picture the TV remote control. | | 3. In which section of a newspaper can we possibly read this text? | | [ ] | A. Entertainment.
B. Finance.
C. Culture.
D. Life. | | 4. The purpose of the passage is to give people _____. | | [ ] | A. professional guides
B. necessary warnings
C. practical tips

1_____. Nancy Alguire, a teacher in Clifton Park, N.Y., was once painfully shy and had a hard time
laughing. Then she married a circus clown (小丑). "I became interested in the clowns," she recalls "One
day, I put on a costume and paint my face. That afternoon my whole life changed. I leamed to laugh and
enjoy life in a way I had never done before." 2_____ To this day, she still makes it a rule to be with people
who enjoy life and laughing.
3_____ It doesn"t take you too much time and can be easy. Collect favorite cartoons and jokes. Also,
keep a paper for writing down humor you find in everyday life. "Good ideas come and go fast, you have
to capture them quickly or they are gone," says Virginia Tooper.
Laugh when you need it most "4_____" says comedian Bill Cosby. "And once you find laughter, no
matter how painful your situation might be, you can survive it," he insists.
Gray Alan, a sociology professor at the University of Minnesota, claims that laughter is a skill we can
all gain-because it comes naturally. 5_____ Just remember: we are just here for a period, so get a few laughs. | A. You can soften the worst blows through humor.
B. Mix with people who laugh.
C. Practise the art of laughing.
D. Keep a laughter file.
E. He who laughs last laughs best.
F. But it"s also something that has to be developed.
G. People"s joy can affect those around them | | 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 | 1_____ Many things can become distractions (分散注意力). Your ability to focus your mind, emotions,
and physical movements will directly influence your success. Staying focused on the task at hand can be
easier said than done. Here are some powerful techniques that can help you improve your ability to focus.
For physical control, it helps to have a constant exercise schedule. 2_____ Exercising helps you gain
better command of your body, and even goes beyond the body, giving you more flexibility not just physically
but also emotionally and mentally. When you feel more comfortable in your body, you increase your self-
confidence, which helps you feel more relaxed.
For mental control, meditation (沉思; 冥想) does the task. 3_____ It"s easy to get distracted by things in
your background, but in order to perform well you have to maintain a high degree of focus. When you relax
your thoughts it trains your mind to deal effectively with outside distractions so you can stay centered on
what matters most at the moment.
4_____ It prevents you from overreaction and also from overacting. When your emotions settle down,
you gain greater awareness of the environment you"re in, and feel calm and in control.
5_____ The good thing is that self-control can be developed. Start exercising frequently, get yourself into
meditation, and start to feel positive changes in your career and your life in general. | A. In short, focus requires self-control.
B. There are many benefits of exercising.
C. Generally speaking, you need to practise a lot.
D. There are still some disadvantages of exercises.
E. Your emotions are well served by meditation as well.
F. Focus is an important part of success and achievement in general.
G. It helps block out all the noise and activities that are going on around you. |
