21、. attached B. commercially C. expectations D. managed E. obstacles F. personal G. positive H. relatively I. samples J. sensitive K. shelved This invention, commonly used in offices and households throughout the world, came about as a result of a series of accidents. In 1968 Spencer Silver, who was w

22、orking for a company called 3M at the time, was trying to produce super-strong adhesive, a substance making things sticky together, to be used in the building of planes. This, however, wasnt successful and instead he succeeded in creating an extremely weak adhesive that was 31 to pressure. This new

23、adhesive had two advantages: it could be removed from surfaces quite easily and it could be reused. In spite of these two 32 features, nobody could see any practical use for it. In the end, the invention was 33 . A few years later, Art Fry, a product development engineer working for 3M, decided to u

24、se this adhesive for 34 use. He stuck strips of paper in a book as page marker and a whole new concept was born. However, the idea still wasnt without 35 . The challenge was to make the glue stay on the sticky note itself, rather than peeling off and staying on the surface it was 36 to. Two more 3M

25、employees were brought in and set the task of producing a coating for the adhesive so that it wouldnt come off and they 37 just that. Unfortunately, 3M bosses still believed that this invention wasnt going to be 38 successful and people would continue to use crap paper(小纸条) for their notes rather th

26、an sticky notes. This is why sticky notes were only tested within the company, where they became extremely popular. It wasnt until many years later that 3M bosses finally decided to give out a vast amount of free 39 to other companies to see if anyone would be interested in buying them. To their sur

27、prise, 90 per cent of the companies approached went on to order more sticky notes. This went beyond anybodys 40 . Nowadays, sticky notes come in a variety of shapes and colours and are sold in more than 100 countries.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following pass

28、age there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. About five years ago, when the first generation of wearable fitness trackers became popular, they were announced as the dawn of a revolution. Health experts and busniesspe

29、ople alike said that giving people access to real-time calorie (卡路里)- burning and step-count data would inspire them to lose weight, eat better and -most important- _41_ more. But even as the U.S. market for _42_ devices hits $7 billion this year, theres evidence that their promise isnt quite paying

30、 off. The U.S. has an exercise problem, with 28% of Americans ages 50 and over considered wholly _43_. That means 31 million adults move no more than is necessary to perform the most basic functions of daily life. Wearables, experts _44_, were going to change that. But limited academic research has

31、been done to figure out whether wearables _45_ peoples behavior in the long term. The little research that does exist isnt _46_. For a recent study in the Journal of the American Medical Association, researchers wanted to see whether activity trackers would help overweight people lose more weight ov

32、er two years than if they just did a weight-loss intervention(干预) alone. They didnt. “We found that just giving people a device doesnt mean its going to _47_ something you think its going to lead to,” says John Jakicic, the author of the study, from the University of Pittsburgh. “These activity trac

33、kers dont engage people in strategies that make a _48_ in terms of long-term change” Another new study highlighted a different challenge: user _49_. By the end of a yearlong study of 800 people, just 10% of participants were still wearing the trackers, according to, Eric Finkelstein, a professor at

34、the Duke- NUS Medical School in Singapore. “We didnt find that Fitbits really have much of an effect,” he says. This may well be because people expect trackers to do something theyre not designed to do- _50_, force them to change their behavior. “Theres _51_ among people about their function, a meas

35、urement tool and an intervention,” Finkelstein says. A scale counts pounds, _52_, but wont teach you how to eat less. “When people put these devices on, they might interact with the app(应用程序) for the first few weeks, maybe the first few months, but there comes a point where that starts to fall off,”

36、 says Finkelstein. To be _53_, some of the costlier add higher-tech wearables have features baked into them that encourage users to move more, says Shelten Yuen, Fitbits vice president of research. Among them: shaking sensors, movement reminders and social- media combination, all designed to _54_ us

37、ers to make better health choices every day. But more research will be needed to determine whether or not these _55_ - or others like them-measurably improve peoples health and fitness levels.41.A. learnB. purchaseC. exercise D. perform42.A. wearable B. electronicC. hi-techD. built-in43.

43、 the beginning of the book after Albert, much to his fathers surprise, has succeeded in training Joey to pull the plough.It was some months later, one the way back from cutting the grass in Great Field that Albert first talked to us about the war. His whistling stopped in mid-tune. “Mother says ther
