Unlike traditional artificial teeth, which are removable, dental implants are surgically placed into the
jawbone and then topped with a restoration such as a dental crown. They feel much more natural than
conventional alternatives.
Additionally, dental implants can help to prevent bone deterioration(退化)that is caused by missing teeth.
The bone begins to deteriorate when you lose a tooth because it is no longer being stimulated daily. This can
lead to severe bone loss over time. But by placing dental implants into the jawbone, we can preserve this
structure.
If you’re missing one, two, or all of your teeth, we encourage you to visit our new office in Long Beach, or
call(949)857-6757 to schedule your appointment. We would be happy to help you find the best treatment plan to
restore your smile and help you enjoy better oral health soon!

Nuclear energy is one of the cleanest power on earth. It is cleaner than any energy source except wind. But
that doesn’t necessarily mean nuclear is the long-term solution for the world because nuclear material is perhaps the
most poisonous matter on earth. In addition, uranium, the element most commonly used in nuclear reactors, is not
in limitless supply. But the biggest problem is nuclear waste.
How can we deal with nuclear waste? The answer is simple—put them somewhere where they can stay,
undisturbed, isolated, forever. Finland is building just that. This region is largely lacking in natural disasters. It
really doesn’t encounter any natural phenomenon that could damage a nuclear waste storage site, especially if it’s
1, 500 feet underground. Beneath an island on the Finnish Baltic Sea coast, the country is digging. They’ re
building the very first permanent nuclear waste storage facility in the world in the stable bedrock 1,500 feet below.
Currently they’ re just finishing their dig down, then very soon they’ll start filling the facility with nuclear
waste. They’ll dig long tunnels with small holes in which they’ll place nuclear waste then backfill the tunnels with
clay to be left forever.
With this system, there’s near zero risk of nuclear material leaking out into the groundwater and, once it’s
filled in the year 2120, it can just be left, forever. Because the material will be so far down and so difficult to get to,
no human management will be necessary once completed.
No security, no maintenance, nothing which means it should be truly secure, but before leaving it, Finland
needs to fight against one thing—human nature. As curious beings, it’s hard to fight a person’s urge of discovery. If
someone finds a mysterious structure from thousands of years ago, it’d just be natural to want to open it up, and
that’s a problem for nuclear waste sites.
We essentially did just that with the pyramids in Egypt. These structures were built as the final, permanent
resting places and we opened them up because we were curious. Opening the nuclear storage facilities would
第4页/共 11页
release radiation into a future civilization, so we have to tell them to leave the sites alone, but that’s easier said than
done.
4. Why is Finland building a nuclear storage site deep underground?
A. The tunnels there are easy to dig. B. The supply of uranium is limited.
C. Modern technology makes it possible. D. No natural disaster can influence the site.
5. What human nature does the author worry about?
A. Being curious. B. A desire for security.
C. Being adventurous. D. A desire for control.
6. What is the author’s attitude toward Finland’s action?
A. Supportive. B. Tolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Pessimistic.
7. Why are the pyramids in Egypt mentioned?
A. To arouse people’s curiosity. B. To predict the site’s development.
C. To illustrate the author’s concern. D. To stress the importance of the project.

It was a quiet morning in the library and we librarians were enjoying a rather loud chat. Suddenly, a patron (常
,
客) marched up to us, gave us an annoyed “Shush!” and went back to her seat. How strange for a group of librarians
to be shushed by a patron! Shouldn’t it be the other way around?
Well, it’s complicated. If you’re like me, a middle-aged woman, you probably remember libraries as places of
silent reading. These days, however, libraries are more like active community centers.
In the past, most libraries didn’t focus much on programs for kids whose age made it impossible for them to be
quiet on demand. But growing knowledge about the importance of kids and teens learning through hands-on
experiences has since caused a sea change in how libraries connect with young readers. Now libraries begin offering
interactive programs for kids, including crafts, board games, and story times. These types of programs certainly aren’t
designed to be silent.
Along with more programs for ever-younger children, technology today has played a part in the transformation
of libraries into places where both kids and adults can use computers, make something on a 3D printer and more. In
addition, many libraries now offer programs for adults, who can participate in in book discussion, learn calligraphy,
and even take college classes.
Of course, libraries still need peaceful phones. These days, many libraries have glassed-off study rooms or quiet
areas. They are also less noisy in the early afternoons, after morning children’s programs and before the after-school
第5页/共 11页
kid crowd arrive.
It’s clear to me now that on the day my colleagues and I were shushed by a patron, we should have been using
our “library voices” as we talked. Still, it’s unlikely that libraries will ever return to the days when they were places
of silence. There’s just too much fun and learning happening.
8. How did the author respond to the patron’s behavior?
A. She approved of it. B. She was disappointed at it.
C. She hesitated about it. D. She was astonished at it.
9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The past and the present of libraries. B. The reason for the change of libraries.
C. The activities for young children in libraries. D. The connection between libraries and readers.
10. What can we learn about today’s libraries?
A. They heavily depend on technology. B. They offer online programs for adults.
C. They still provide silent reading places. D. They care much about time arrangement.
11. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Libraries Should be Loud B. Reading Can be Fun in Libraries
C. Libraries Make Learning Happen D. Library Programs Target Children
D
Most of us would like to be more creative, but we assume there is little we can do about it. Psychology professor
K. Anders Ericsson claims that with enough practice, any of us can become experts. However, he is quick to add that
this requires a specific kind of practice that Ericsson calls ‘deliberate practice’: that is, pushing beyond one’s comfort
zone and setting goals that are above one’s current level of performance. He says he has yet to find the limits on
being successful and he doesn’t believe them to be real.
Ericsson has looked primarily at artistic and athletic skills, but can these findings apply to creativity? Most
experts agree that even if most people cannot hope to become creative geniuses, they can learn to become more
creative through practice. Psychologists claim that there are actually two levels of creativity, which they refer to
as’Big C’ and ‘small c’. Big C creativity applies to breakthrough ideas, ones that may change the course of a field or
even history. Small c creativity refers to everyday creative problem solving, like creating a new recipe or improving
a process, which psychologists subdivide further into similar and different thinking. Similar thinking involves
examining all the facts and arriving at a single solution. In contrast, different thinking involves coming up with many
possible solutions. What most people think of as creativity generally involves different thinking and can be taught,
practised and learnt.
第6页/共 11页
Even with practice, different thinking alone cannot make one creative, however. Scott Barry Kaufman, a
cognitive psychologist, says that most creative people share one personality quality: openness to new experience.
Since this quality and these processes have been identified, less creative people can try to emulate them. Normally,
we tend to reproduce what we already know because creative ideas move us into unfamiliar territory involving risks
and following the usual behaviors is comfortable.
Moving outside of our comfort zone, engaging indeliberate practice and tolerating contradictory ideas, risk and
failure are all things we can learn to do better. It is unlikely that doing so will transform any of us into creative
geniuses, but it does have the potential to increase our level of creativity.
12. Why does Ericsson think he can’t find the limits?
A. No restrictions exist. B. Practice makes perfect.
C. Each one can succeed. D. The goal is ambitious.
13. Which of the following is an example of ‘small c’?
A. Settling in outer space.
B. Building a plastic doghouse.
C. Developing robots to look after the old.
D. Explaining the theory of evolution in class.
14. What does the underlined word “emulate” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Justify. B. Limit. C. Copy. D. Assess.
15. What message does the author seem to convey in the text?
A. We can learn to be more creative.
B. Life is full of various challenges.
C. It’s better to take deliberate practice.
D. Most can become creative geniuses.

Mrs. Riley and I always shout at each other. I shout because she can’t hear me, and she shouts because she can’t
hear herself. “What do you need from the store?” I’ll yell. “Bananas,” she’ll yell back.
You don’t realize what a funny word bananas is until you hear it shouted by an eighty-year-old woman. I work
for Mrs. Riley. I buy groceries for her at the supermarket on Nostrand Avenue, and sometimes I dust and sweep her
apartment. The best part, though, is taking care of Sam. Sam is Mrs. Riley’s canary(金丝雀). He’s bright yellow, and
he sings all the time. That’s one thing about canaries. They’re always cheerful. That’s what I’m saving my money
for. I’m going to buy a canary. And besides the canary, I have to get a cage and swings and toys and food.
“Do you have enough money yet, girl?” Mrs. Riley always shouts at me. “Not yet,” I shout back. “Soon.” And
she always calls me girl, not Carla. Sometimes I think she doesn’t remember my name.
