When people wanted to find their way to a place in the past,they used to have to buy a map.But they don't have to do that any more.Now they can either buy a GPS,or go online and find maps for just about anywhere.
Is this an improvement?Perhaps,but some people think some of the online companies are going too far,because they have been sending out cars with photographic equipment on their roofs,to photograph every street and house in the country.
One of these cars arrived on a Wednesday morning in the quiet English village of Broughton.The camera was on a meter-high stick an top of the car and could see over walls and into people's gardens.Some of the villagers came and stood around the car,and then asked the driver and photographer to go away.Reporters quickly arrived on the scene,and soon the event was news all over the country.
Of course,the online company in question says that it is simply collecting information that people on the Internet want.But the villagers feel differently."We used to have privacy in this country—now companies just come and take photographs of our home without even asking,"said one villager."It' not right.We mustn't let this happen.We mustn't lose our right to live privately."
There is,of course,no law to prevent people from taking photographs of houses,so the villagers cannot go to court.But many people are asking the question:"OK,it's legal,lout is rt right?"
1.How is Paragraph 1 developed?

Look at your three middle fingers of your left hand. Is your index finger(食指)longer than your ring finger? Is your ring finger longer than your index finger? Or are the two the same height? Find the scenes that best matches your hand and see if it is an accurate description of your personality
1..
If your ring finger is longer than your index finger, researchers shows that you’re likely a charming type, and you can probably talk yourself out of any situation. Others often find this personality type irresistible and will go to great lengths to help you. You’re more likely to take risks, and you’re good at problem-solving. People in this category make great engineers, soldiers and crossword-puzzle solves.
2..
If your index finger is longer than your ring finger, chances are you are full of confidence—possibly even to the point of being over-confident and arrogant. You are not necessarily introverted, but you do enjoy time to yourself, especially when you’re trying to complete a project. You are a goal-oriented(面向目標(biāo)的)go-getter who can make things happen, but you may be shy when it comes to taking the first step in a relationship. You are also probably happy with what you have, but you’re always wishing for more.
3..
If your index finger and ring fingers are roughly the same length, you are likely to avoid conflict at all costs and seek to keep the peace in your relationships. You are well-organized, faithful and pitiful. But deep down under all of that caring and peace-loving, you also have a bad temper that can scold unexpectedly when you’re pushed too far. You will try your hardest to avoid a fight,hut God helps the person who pushes you into one!
A. Longer ring finger: The Hardworking One
B. Index and ring finger are the same length: The Peacemaker
C. Longer index finger: The (Over) Confident One

In a time when ivory poaching (偷獵) has gotten so bad that it threatens to wipe out several animal species, a young Dutch designer is creating “egalitarian (平等主義) jewelry^ made of our very own ivory—teeth.
Lucie Majerus got the idea for her “human ivory” collection after having her wisdom teeth removed. She kept them and soon realized they would make great material for a jewelry collection. “Why wouldn’t we value our own material instead of the precious material from other species? And what if we mine our own ivory and turn it into pearls?” she asks.
Her own teeth became a ring,but in order to create a whole collection, she needed more material, and since having more of her teeth removed wasn’t a very pleasant choice, she asked her dentist to save his patient’s unwanted teeth. Most people choose not to keep their pulled teeth, so they are usually donated to dentistry schools. Majerus also received the lost teeth of two of her teachers at Design Academy Eindhoven, so she had a nice supply of human ivory to experiment with.
To turn human teeth into attractive pieces of jewelry, Lucie Majerus first bleaches (漂白) them, and then uses a stone polishing machine to shape the teeth into various shapes.
Majerus displayed her human ivory jewelry collection at this year’s Dutch Design Week, and claims that people’s reaction was mostly positive. “Surprisingly, most people aren’t frightened at the sight of the jewelry, but really like the idea,” Majerus told Fast Co Design. “Some regret that they didn’t keep their tooth at the dentist and some, who will have teeth taken out soon, are now looking forward to it.”
1.When did Majerus get the idea of collecting human ivory?
A. After she bought a ring.
B. After her wisdom teeth were pulled out.
C. Before she was lacking in pearls.
D. Before her wisdom teeth appeared.
2.Seeing Majerus’s human ivory jewelry collection, most people felt .
A. frightened. B. curious
C. sad D. interested
3.It can be inferred form the next that .
A. Majerus is the first woman to create jewelry using human teeth
B. other species teeth are more precious than human teeth
C. most people don’t like keeping their pulled teeth at home
D. Majerus’s teachers objected to her experiments with teeth
4.What may be the best title for the text?
A. Elephants and Ivory
B. Human Ivory Jewelry
C. A Designer Removed Her Teeth
D. The Drawbacks of Human Teeth
