CWe traveled to Moscow, Russia for river sight-seeing. I had never been to Russia and my impression of that country was formed by what I heard and saw on television and in the newspaper. We were to be picked up at the airport by a driverwho would then take us to the hotel and then go sightseeing. We arrived on time, got our baggage and went to the gate, but no one was waiting holding a sign with our names.We had the phone number of the driver and the travel agency but no phone worked in Russia. I noticed a young woman sitting next to me with a cell phone so I asked her if she spoke English and she replied “Yes”. “Could you please call our driver, I would pay for the call,” I asked. “No problem,” she replied and called both numbers but no one answered.A Russian woman holding a sign with someones name on it, not ours, must have overheard this conversation and took the paper and called both numbers. Again, no one answered. She shrugged and sat down and then her phone was ringing (the call was from our driver) and in Russian she had a conversation.Then she started to tell me about the call from our driver, but in Russian. I said, “No Russian, English?” She said, “No English, Russian or Spanish.” The young woman who had made the first call said she spoke Spanish. So the Russian woman relayed (传达) the information from our driver to the young woman in Spanish. Then the young woman told the information to me in English.The three of us looked at each other and realized what had just happened and laughed and hugged each other. That was international kindness.28. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. The driver waited for the author at the airport on time.B.

Kindness Needs No Translation D. An Experience in Russia DIn this day and age, knowing exactly what and how much youre eating is necessary. Youve probably used calculators (计算器) on your smartphones before. For example, a calculator will tell you the average number of calories in a hamburger. However, it acts only as a guide, and it cant tell you exactly how many calories are in the hamburger at your favorite fast food joint. Now Panasonics new device, CaloRieco, can actually give you accurate(准确的) information on exactly what is on your plate in a few seconds.Displayed at the CEATEC 2017 tech show, CaloRieco is a high-tech device that uses light reflection technology to offer accurate and expeditious calorie information so as to determine the nutritional values of any food. All you have to do is place you plate in the box-shaped device and wait between 10 and 20 seconds for it to analyze all the food there.Once its done analyzing the various foods in your meal, CaloRieco shows the number of calories, as well as the nutritional content on an LED display (显示器). According to Panasonic, the device is able to recognize the vast majority of foods except soups and similar food. CaloRieco can also connect to your smartphone via an app, and send all the data about analyzed foods to your Personal Digital Assistant, so you can access it whenever you need.Panasonic said that its invention is aimed at people going on a diet and diabetes (糖尿病) sufferers, both of whom make up a very large market. Unfortunately, youll have to wait a bit longer to get your hands on your very own CaloRieco, as the device presented at CEATEC is just a model. Its planned to hit the market sometime in the next few years, but the price remains a mystery.32. Whats special about the new CaloRieco? A. It can be linked to our smartphones. B. It can act as a guide on healthy food. C. It can tell you the average calories in food. D. It can provide accurate calorie information on food.33. Whats the meaning of the underlined word “expeditious” in Paragraph 2? A. Simple. B. Quick. C. Normal. D. Satisfying.34. Whats the disadvantage of CaloRieco? A. It functions poorly with liquid food. B. It cannot work without an app. C. It couldnt be used outdoors. D. It is difficult to operate.35. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. We can get CaloRieco at a cheap price. B. CaloRieco is not suitable for healthy people. C. CaloRieco can not be bought by people at present. D. The invention of CaloRieco is proved to be a success. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。Wele to our website.
