Clothes can make phone calls, play music, dial your pal"s number, keep you warm during cold weather and operate your computer. This is not a fantasy. A British company, called electrotexiles, has created a wide range of clothes-clothes tha have minds of their own ! Scientists, working for the company, have invented a kind of fabric that can be mixed with flexible electronic materials to create intelligent clothing. The results are electronic garments. If you think the weather has to be wired to different devices, think again. These designer clothes are wirefree, soft to touch and washable! Like any electronic device, these hightech clothes have to be powered. Currently, a tiny ninevolt battery serves the purpose. But the researchers hope that in the near future the clothes will generate electricity by using body heat. These clothes are 100% shockproof, they say. The electrotexiles team has also created the world"s first cloth keyboard. These keyboard can be sewn into your trousers or skirt. To use this device, you will have to sit down and tap on your lap! These "laptap" devices are all set to take over laptop computers! Another useful garment is the shirtcummobile phone. This handy invention enables drivers to chat comfortably with others at the wheel! Other popular electronic wears include the denim (牛仔布) jacket with flexible earphones sewn into the hoop and the electronic ski jacket with a builtin heater. The ski jacket is also programmed to send signals to a satellite. This technology is known as global positioning system and can be used to track lost skiers and wandering kids. Having completed the cloth keyboard, scientists have already started to work on a new project-a necktie that can be used as a computer mouse. What is the next? Do you have any idea? |

We"ve all met with something that slows us down, for example, the bump (颠簸) in the road, the setback. You just have to keep in mind that a setback is only temporary and greater things lie ahead. Therefore, keep moving forward, developing what you have, since you"ve already built a solid foundation on which you can rely. It is easy just to quit, give up and ignore the hard work you have put into something. But we believe in the "two steps forward, one step back" philosophy (哲学). So how can you react when something doesn"t turn out as you"ve expected it to be? First, be objective. Step back and look at the situation. Is your setback really that significant, or will it just require a little extra effort? Then, plan your next move. You can ask for help. Don"t be afraid o r ashamed to do this. Frequently, people are more than willing to give you support and advice. You don"t have to be perfect; after all, nobody else is. Next, bounce back. Reevaluate the goals you have set for yourself at the beginning and retool (改组) them as necessary. Goals should be realistic and specific, but that doesn"t mean they can"t be flexible. Instead of looking at your project as a disaster or a failure, view it with success. Concentrate on how great it will feel after it is finally done, after you have put your all into it. Instead of focusing on a possible unsatisfactory performance one single time, take a moment to sit back and reward yourself for all that you have accomplished. Above all, don"t live with regrets. Success is never easy. It remains up to you whether you will give up, or fight through the tough battles to earn whatever you want. Keep reaching for your goals and you will achieve them. One small setback is nothing if you really want something and are willing to work for it. |

A. we are supposed to quit and ignore the hard work B. we"d better think it over before making a decision C. we should stop to think before taking further action D. we are expected to look at things in an allround way |
2.The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refers to________. |
A. a performance B. a success C. a goal D. a project |
3.When suffering a setback,the most important thing to do is________. |
A. to keep moving forward to your goals B. to depend on others" support and advice C. to sit back and reward yourself for your success |
4. What is the passage mainly about? |
A. How to avoid the bumps. B. How to deal with the setbacks. C. Different attitudes to the setbacks. D. Different suggestions on your goals. |

Shoppers who carefully plan their visit to the grocery store can save money on their grocery bills. 1 Shoppers should visit the grocery store on a full stomach by scheduling their trip immediately after a large meal.

So, setting a time limit and a cost limit can hold down the bill. 5 If the grocery list is a short one, some shoppers choose to use the small handheld basket instead of the roomy grocery cart. |
