In Britain．Boxing Day is usually celebrated on December 26^th，which is the following day after Christmas Day．However，strictly speaking．Boxing Day is the first weekday after Christmas．Like Christmas Day．Boxing Day sing a public holiday．This means it’s a non﹣working day in the whole of Britain．When Boxing Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday，the following Monday is the public holiday．
The exact origin（起源）of the holiday is unclear．One of the thoughts is that during the Middle Ages，when great sailing ships were setting off to discover new land，a Christmas Box was placed by a priest （神父）on each ship．Those sailors who wanted to ensure a safe return would drop money into the box．It wassealed upand kept on board until the ship came home safely．Then the box was handed over to the priest in the exchange for the saying of a Mass of thanks for the success of the sailing．The priest wouldn’t open it to share the contents with the poor until Christmas．
One more thought is about the “Alms Box” placed in every church on Christmas Day. Worshippers (做礼拜的人)put gifts for the poor into it. These boxes were always opened the day after Christmas，that is why that day became know as Boxing Day．
Today，many businesses，organizations and families try to keep the traditional spirit of Boxing Day alive by donating（捐赠）their time，services and money to aid Food Banks，providing gifts for the poor，or helping families in need．Besides，spending time with family and shopping are popular Boxing Day activities now．

The Earth is faced with a serious power problem now and all of us are affected by it. Should we leave everything to the government, or can we do something to save power? The answer is clear if not us, who? Let us look at how you can save power at home.

Computer. More often than not, we do not turn off our monitors (显示屏) even after we have shut down our computers. And we often leave our computers on when we walk away to do something else. Keep the monitor and the computer switched off when you are not using them.   Start doing this even when at work. You will help save some of the earth's important power.

Air Conditioning. Put the temperature at the minimum or maximum strongest that you are comfortable with, depending on the season. Try not to put it at too-high or too-low temperatures. This helps you save lots of power.

Washers. Do you use your washing machine as frequently as you wish? Do you use your washing machine even when there are not many clothes to wash? Reduce the times of washing by cleaning plenty of clothes every time.

Television. Unplug (拔出插头) the power plug of your television set when not using it. This may not sound like a big deal but this little step will help oneself save power.

Fridge. Do you always put hot food into the fridge? Bring cooked food to room temperatures before placing it into the fridge. You can also spare power by bringing cold or frozen food out of the icebox a great deal ahead of the mealtime. Thus, you don't need to heat it.

Big data (数据) is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns in the data.     46    , such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies, and governments. One set of data can have people's names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer.

    47    . The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains.   This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too.     48    . For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream.

Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons.     49    , even if they have not done anything wrong.

How can big data be used for good and bad things? It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people. People think a certain way. Because they think a certain way, they build a model of those ideas.     50    . Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people.

A．It helps them understand who buys their products

B．These ideas are then used to look at the data

C．Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources

D．It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others

E．Big data can be used in many ways

I believe that we can have an important effect on anyone we meet. The right words at just the right time could change someone's life.

When I was three years old, my parents discovered I was deaf. After asking many doctors and parents of other deaf children, they decided to send     51     to a normal school.

On my     52     (one) day in the school, the other kids laughed at me     53     of my hearing aid (助听器). And then I saw myself as an ugly kid.

Mrs. Jordan, my teacher, changed all of that with a simple three-word phrase. One morning, she    54     (ask) the class a question. I read her lips and     55     (raise) my hand right away. She called me. I took a    56    breath and nervously answered Mrs. Jordan's question.

I will never forget     57     happened next. Mrs. Jordan pointed directly at me. With a big smile she cried, "That's right, Stephen!" For the first time in my young life, my    58    [ˈkɒnfɪdəns] increased.

At the moment, I decided that no matter how many difficulties I may    59    [feɪs], I can get over them. Just from those three simple     60     (word), my life changed from that moment.
