Often their daydreaming is centered on the next rather than the now.Technology is all about whats next-the next innovation (创新),the next platform or the next device. This is most obvious with the iPhone. The iPhone X has just released, but businessmen and customers are already thinking about the next, newest iPhone. I am already counting the days until I can upgrade my iPhone.Throughout my adolescence (青春期), almost every single one of my peers have been too wrapped up with the next great thing and put too much stress on themselves while losing sense of what is going on now or what they have achieved; it drives me totally crazy. Upon entering high school, I was excited to spend the next four years with my closest friends. Sadly, once I hit my sophomore year (高二), I began to worry about getting into a good college and what I needed to do for that to happen. By concentrating on whats next, I seem to be missing whats great about high school.Most students in high school look at education as a means to an end; something that will set them up for the next step. Due to this, they pay close attention to the teacher in class, not to enrich their knowledge, but to score high on the test, making them stronger candidates (候选人) for college. What is even more annoying is that universities are now forcing high school students to have a clear idea of what they want to do in life. Most colleges have specialized schools, such as business, nursing and education; in most cases, it is very difficult to switch out of or into one of the specialized schools. Therefore, high schoolers do actually have to focus on whats next.When I go to college, all I am thinking about is still what comes next; that is, how to land a great job out of college. Everyone around seems to be like me. Actually, I truly hope that people who are in this very similar situation can figure out a way to make the now as important, if not more important, than the next in life.Taking all of this into consideration, the concept of what comes next is far too ingrained (根深蒂固的) into important things of life, such as technology and education. If people keep racing from one thing to the next, life will pass them by and in a hurry; no one will be able to look back on what they have experienced or achieved, because life will have become a blur (模糊).（1）The writer mentions the iPhone in Paragraph 2 to show that . A . the newest iPhone is always the bestB . young customers like new technologyC . the iPhone X attracts the most attentionD . technology is all about what comes next（2）What can we learn from the passage? A . High schoolers are forced to have clear ideas about their future jobs.B . Few students pay close attention to the teacher to score high on tests.C . Thinking too much about the present gives students too much pressure.D . Different activities make the students stronger candidates for the college.（3）The writer probably agrees that .A . students now care too much about unimportant things in lifeB . future achievements depend on your plan in your high schoolC . college education usually makes a great difference to most of the peopleD . people should live in the now rather than only look ahead to the next（4）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A . Future, in Our EyesB . Now, in a World of NextC . Past, Now and FutureD . Technology, a Key to Future10. （6分）阅读短文，根据要求完成文后的题目。There was a man who had four sons.

With its help, plastics can be turned into smaller parts and go away quickly. Scientists believe that, in the future, it could solve the problem of plastic pollution.The enzyme is able to break down PET, a form of plastic. PET was first made in the 1940s and is now widely used to make plastic bottles. It can remain in the environment for many years and pollute large areas of land and water. So it has always been a headache to deal with the waste from PET and other plastics.The researchers made the discovery (发现) while examining the structure of a natural enzyme in Japan. They found that the natural enzyme was helping to break down PET plastics. So, they decided to make small changes to the enzyme by adding some amino acids (氨基酸). It made the natural enzymes plastic-eating abilities work faster and better.John McGeehan, one of the lead researchers, said, Weve made an improved enzyme. Its better than the natural one. And we are trying to make more improvements to it. He went on, The enzyme is not harmful to humans or animals, and it is friendly to the environment. So we are considering putting it into wider use.The team is now trying to make the enzyme break down PET in large quantities (大量地).Well see that the plastic pollution may be stopped with this technology. However, there is still a long way to go, John McGeehan added.（1）According to the scientists the enzyme may solve the problem of pollution. A . airB . waterC . lightD . plastic（2）The underlined phrase break down in the passage probably means _ in Chinese. A . 实验B . 生产C . 发明D . 分解（3）Researchers discovered that a natural enzyme helped eat plastics _. A . in BritainB . in the USC . in JapanD . in China（4）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A . The scientists are still trying to improve the enzyme.B . The enzyme will pollute large areas of land and water.C . The natural enzyme works better than the improved one.D . The natural enzyme is harmful to humans and animals.12. （8分）阅读理解 Patrick Johnson, an artist for the Washington Post, found some treasure in his new house-35, 000 dollars in a place where no one could see it.
