The movie theater is a fantasy land that takes the dreams of anyone. It attracts groups of different tastes. There are certain characteristics that distinguish these people from one another. And the characteristics also help guide directors towards what is going to be the next big cinematic presentation.
The Regulars
They are basically amateur movie critics themselves due to the amount of movies they watch. They do not decide more between movies and can generally see two or even three in one sitting. So older people are the regulars due to their plenty of free time they have.

They are quick to get into the cinema and usually buy what is required by the female partner. What is usually a similar theme in their movies is at least a hinting at a love story of some sort. These groups are excellent test subjects for the production of Nicholas Sparks type movies as they feel like their love story is the next big production and thus directors are drawn towards them.
The Noisy Teens
These types can interrupt a movie countless times. Though they may buy tons of food, they seem somehow not to send the food into their mouths and employees find much food is left on the floor as if a food fight went on during the film. Action and adventure movies come out usually for this crowd because the plot and fast-paced nature of the film usually keep the teens at bay for that time period.

Late in 2020, at a two-hour televised musical competition in Beijing, when Gao's favorite idol(偶像) walked out, she could not afford to get too excited. She had to have her camera ready at all times to capture her idol's moment on stage: any distraction could ruin that one perfect shot. Then Gao began editing photos on the spot to perfect his images and quickly uploaded them to the platform Weibo.
There are lots of accounts like Gao's on social media, which aim to boost a certain star's influence and popularity through shares and comments. Such accounts are referred to as “image stations”, and the people who run them, like Gao, are called “station sisters”.
Gao was born into a wealthy family and attended university in Shanghai. Gao said to reporters that she was just a “regular” fan at first. “When I witnessed his charming stage presence in 2020 and his
determination to mak e his dreams come true, I was instantly swept away,” Gao recalled. Soon after, she joined a dozen or so online fan groups and began brainstorming strategies to boost her idol's social media relevance. She searched forums and found posts by several station sisters in which they recounted their experiences. She decided to join their ranks.
Gao started by purchasing a Canon 5D4 SLR camera and a 100-400mm long-focus lens, spending over 30,000 yuan. After quickly mastering its basic functions and learning basic photography skills, she set off on her “job”. She spent a large amount of time tracking her idol's flight, photographing him, waiting outside hotels, purchasing products her idol endorsed(宣传), and even following him to another city.
At the time, she had li ttle time to attend her courses. “I had taken many credits at school and was hoping to receive a postgraduate recommendation,” said Gao. Early in 2021, her academic setbacks as well as negative news about the fan industry brought Gao's return to reality. “I couldn’t believe what I had done. I decided it was time to live for myself,” she said. Seeing her idol no longer aroused the admiration it once did. Now, she has turned her past as a celebrity chaser into a new life explorer. She said to a friend, “Isn’t cheering our idols supposed to make us better people? All we need to do then is just rush ahead.”
56. What was Gao's purpose in going to that musical competition in Beijing?
A.To show off on social platforms.
B.To promote her idol’s public influence.
C.To experience the charm of a live show.
D.To get an autographed photo of her idol.
57. What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?
A.Gao's experience of becoming a station sister.
B.A brief introduction to Gao's after-school life.
C.A story about Gao's meeting with her idol.
D.Gao's memory of chasing her idol.
58. Which can best describe the life of Gao as a super fan?
A.Cost-effective and worthy. B.Bittersweet and beneficial.
C.Money-consuming and laborious. D.Challenging and enviable.
59. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.Gao’s idol fooled all his fans.
B.Gao's university studies ran smoothly.
C.Gao has persuaded many friends to quit their idols.
D.Gao has got herself back on track after going wrong.
60. What does the author intend to tell us in the text?
A.Don't let words of apology make up the most of your vocabulary.
B.Mend your way properly after being off the right path.
C.Striving for perfection makes you a boring person.
D.There is no such thing as a self-made person.
Across the rich world, well-educated people increasingly work longer than the less-skilled. Some 65% of American men aged 62-74 with a professional degree are in the workforce, compared with 32% of men with only a high-school certificate. This gap is part of a deepening divide between the well-educated well-off and the unskilled poor. Rapid technological advance has raised the incomes of the highly skilled while squeezing those of the unskilled. The consequences, for individuals and society, are profound.
The world is facing an astonishing rise in the number of old people, and they will live longer than ever before. Over the next 20 years the global population of those age d 65 or more will almost double, from 600 million to 1.1 billion. The experience of the 20th century, when greater longevity(长寿) translated into more years in retirement rather than more years at work, has persuaded many observers that this shift will lead to slower economic growth, while the swelling ranks of pensioners will create government budget problems.
But the notion of a sharp division between the working young and the idle old misses a new trend, the growing gap between the skilled and the unskilled. Employment rates are falling among younger unskilled people, whereas older skilled folk are working longer. The divide is most extreme in America, where well-educated baby-boomers(二战后生育高峰期出生的美国人) are putting off retirement while many less-skilled younger people have dropped out of the workforce.
Policy is partly responsible. Many European governments have abandoned policies that used to encourage people to retire early. Rising life expectancy(预期寿命), combined with the replacement of generous defined-benefit pension plans with less generous defined-contribution ones, means that even the better-off must work longer to have a comfortable retirement. But the changing nature of work also plays a big role. Pay has risen sharply for the highly educated, and those people continue to reap rich rewards into old age because these days the educated elderly are more productive than the preceding generation. Technological change may well reinforce that shift: the skills that complement computers, from management knowhow to creativity, do not necessarily decline with age.
61. What is happening in the workforce in rich countries?
A.Younger people are replacing the elderly.
B.Well-educated people tend to work longer.
C.Unemployment rates are rising year after year.
D.People with no college degree do not easily find work.
62. What has helped deepen the divide between the well-off and the poor?
A.Longer life expectancies.
B.A rapid technological advance.
C.Profound changes in the workforce.
D.A growing number of the well-educated.
63. What do many observers predict in view of the experience of the 20th century?
A.Economic growth will slow down.
B.Government budgets will increase.
C.More people will try to pursue higher education.
D.There will be more competition in the job market.
64. What is the result of policy changes in European countries?
A.Unskilled workers may choose to retire early.
B.More people have to receive in-service training.
C.Even wealthy people must work longer to live comfortably in retirement.
D.People may be able to enjoy generous defined-benefits from pension plans.
65. What is characteristic of work in the 21st century?
A.Computers will do more complicated work.
B.More will be taken by the educated young.
C.Most jobs to be done will be creative ones.
D.Skills are highly valued regardless of age.
Have you ever come out of a steamy hot shower and tried to look at your reflection in the mirror when it’s completely steamed and fogged up? I often think that is how we tend to view our beauty—through fogged up mirrors. We are seeing ourselves but the picture isn’t exa ctly clear! The mirrors have been fogged up through different life experiences and memories as we have grown up, and now blend together to form our own definition of our beauty.
The first mirror is formed as a young child and is often based on what was said about us from our parents and those around us. I remember being told that I was a cute child, so that when I got a little older and was around six or seven and another child tried to tell me I was ugly- everything within me rose up against the statement because my self-belief in what my parents had said stood strong. The second mirror is the mirror of adolescence, those formative years when we are pushed into the big wild world and out of the protection of home. As a teenager I went to a boarding school, and I was one of the only two black people in the entire school. Children being naturally curious, I felt like I was asked a million and one different questions about both my hair and skin tone- -and I don’t
think there has ever been a time when I have been more acutely aware of my appearance, which in turn opened up the door for me to question how I looked and to thankfully embrace my differences. The final mirror comes from socially constructed ideas of beauty. We are often faced with numerous images in the media, popular culture, society, peers and social media, which can create a false ideal of beauty in our eyes. We tend to compare ourselves to those ideals and use it as some sort of margin (差值) of measurement.
However, real beauty comes from within. It is acceptance of yourself, perceived flaws and all. You are a masterpiece, a unique blend of genes and life experiences. It’s essential to appreciate yourself like any other work of art or natural wonder, without judgement. Maybe it’s time to create a fou rth mirror, a new mirror that is wiped clean and is minus the fog of comparisons, accusations, judgments and expectations.
66. What do the fogged-up mirrors represent according to the first paragraph?
A.The difficulties of seeing oneself in the mirror.
B.The various sources of beauty standards.
C.The unclear perceptions of one’s beauty.
D.The life experiences and memories.
67. How did the author react when someone called her ugly?
A.She felt embarrassed.
B.She completely denied it.
C.She sought comfort from her parents.
D.She questioned what her parents had said.
68. What can we learn about social constructed ideas of beauty?
A.They push teens out of home protection.
B.They arouse acute awareness of one’s appearance.
C.They may mislead people’s idea of beauty.
D.They are the exact measurement of beauty.
69. What does the author suggest as a possible fourth mirror?
A.A mirror not affected by external factors.
B.A mirror going against society’s expectations.
C.A mirror reflecting one’s child hood experiences.
D.A mirror showing the beauty ideals from social media.
70. The passage is mainly written to tell us that we should________.
A.bring happiness to those around us
B.keep our resolve despite obstacles
C.change ourselves to achieve an ideal
D.embrace our real inner beauty

For the past two Spring Festivals, psychologist Lu De's holidays have been different from
most .Instead of spending the vacation in her hometown of Changsha, Hunan province, Lu has traveled to the war-torn(受战争之苦的)state of Kachin in Myanmar to volunteer.
Lu was inspired to make her first visit by a photograph a college classmate showed her last year, displaying the conditions in the refugee(难民) camps. So Lu gathered together four friends and entered the country. They volunteered at the Muguaba refugee camp, home to thousands of homeless people including hundreds of children, providing consultations and training.
The lack of materials and the general condition of the camp shocked Lu. It had a school constructed from nothing more than sticks and wooden boards, and there was only one doctor and one nurse to provide medical care in the temporary clinic. "I have more medication in my home than they had here," Lu said.
You can often hear the shot and explosion here. Everyone is like a duck in a thunderstorm because of the war, but they also have hopes for a better life and a peaceful world," said Lu.
Each day, she gave lectures to the children. "It might seem like I am just teaching them, but they have also let me have a better understanding of life," she said. "I used to complain a lot, but my experiences there have changed me greatly.
Next Spring Festival, Lu plans to recruit 100 volunteers to help out in the camps, hoping that the extra manpower will allow her to "do things better". "I came back with a renewed appreciation for the plight(困境) of the Myanmar refugees and love for my Chinese friends," she said. "Though I came back in darkness, I don't feel tired at all."
