Such absent-mindedness may be 1 to you; now British and German scientists are developing memory glasses that record everything the 2 sees.

The glasses can play back memories later to help the wearer remember things they have forgotten such as where they left their keys. And the glasses also 3 the user to "label" items so that information can be used later on. The wearer could walk around an office or a factory identifying certain 4 by pointing at them. Objects indicated are then given a 5 label on a screen inside the glasses that the user then fills in.

A spokesman for the project said: "A car mechanic for 8 could find at a glance where a part on a certain car model is so that it can be identified and repaired. For the motorist the system could 9 accident black spots or dangers on the road."

题目要求：

Should young criminals be treated in the same way as adults by authorities? This issue has been intensely discussed for years. The following are the supporters’ and opponents’ opinions.

YES

If our courts take a more lenient position, then the related laws and punishment will not have a deterring effect on teenagers. As a result, teenagers are likely to commit horrible crimes since they are aware that they have legal protection.

Only by taking stern legal measures against these young criminals can we bring a number of misguided young people around to the right road.

In some cases, the lighter sentences might also lead to people’s resentment towards the judicial system as victims might argue that these young offenders do not confess what they have done. This could also result in insecurity in our society eventually.

NO

The circumstances of a crime and the criminal’s motivation should be taken into consideration when it comes to juvenile delinquency. For example, because of distress and hunger, some teens may turn to stealing food or robbery during the period of famine. In view of the above reasons, harsh punishment, such as long-term jail might not be the best solution.

Some alternatives such as community service might be better for some young offenders who lack parenting and self-discipline to get a new start in their later life.

Minors are likely to be given a better chance for rehabilitation when they commit crimes because of their inexperience of life and possibly better life prospects.

“公务员热”降温

题目要求：

Every year millions of candidates attend the National Civil Servant Exam, some of whom even take it as their lifelong career to attend the exam every year in the hope of passing the exam and becoming a civil servant. The most sought-after position may attract nearly 10,000 applicants. The “craze for the Civil Servant Exam” has been fiercely debated in recent years. Should university graduates zealously pursue government posts? Read carefully the opinions from both sides and write your response in about 200 words, in which you should first summarize briefly the opinions from both sides and give your views on the issue.

YES

It is undeniable that the post of civil servant is an appealing job, for government posts are relatively stable, with fine income and welfare. If one becomes a civil servant, many troublesome problems, such as accommodation and medical care can be solved with some favorable policies. Also, the workload is modest compared with other jobs. So being a civil servant is attractive for many university students and they can hardly abandon this opportunity.

The expansion of college enrollment and the fierce competition among university graduates have led to the increasing pressure of job hunting. For many students who are not quite certain of what they want to do in the future, taking the Civil Servant Exam is a good try. The whole process is the same as applying for jobs in private sections. Through the exam, university graduates can get a practice for the future career, and the result sometimes is not so important.

NO

The craze of university students attending the Civil Servant Exam is, to a large extent, due to the advantages of government posts. But actually, the government post today is not as favorable as it used to be. Being a civil servant is stable, but on the other hand, also lacks creativity and freshness. Its salary is on the average level, and is no match for that in some private sections. University graduates, at their 20s, should exert themselves and strive for a bright future. Blindly following the crowd to pursue government posts is not a good choice.

It is wrong that some university students equate success with a government post. In order to get a government post, students sometimes have to choose jobs that are not even related to their majors. It is a waste and is not worth getting such a post at the cost of one’s specialties and professional knowledge.
