Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne said yesterday he would use the autumn spending review to increase Britain’s￡12bn-a-year aid budget towards humanitarian(人道主义的) causes in the wake of the European refugee(难民) crisis.
Britainpromised to spend 0.7 percent of state general product on aid, meaning the budget could rise sharply by the end of the decade as the economy grows.
Mr Osborne also said more of the aid budget could be given to help local government with housing costs for incomers, without breaking international guidelines.
“We will use the foreign aid budget to help with the costs of these refugees. People ask about the pressure on public services; we’ll have extra money to help with that.”
The government was unable to give a figure for how much aid money could be handed to local authorities: it would depend on how many refugees are accepted.
David Cameron, Prime Minister, will set out his position on aid for refugees today. It is reported thatBritainwill accept at least 10,000 extra people from camps on theSyriaborder. He will use a statement in the House of Commons to flesh out plans — announced inMadridon Friday — to take more people.
A report inThe Sunday Timesthat the UK would take 15,000 Syrians, not far from the 18,000 figure demanded by the EU, was described by “Downing Street” as a “guess”.
TheUKwill offer to resettle Syrians directly from refugee camps inJordan,LebanonandTurkey— but not those who have already reached the EU.

“Heavy hearts, like heavy clouds in the sky, are best relieved by the letting of a little water, the French writer Antoine de Rivarol wrote. This love letter to the cleansing beauty of a good cry is a comforting thought at atime when the continuing stress of the COVID-19 has added heaviness to each of our lives.
Scientifically, de Rivarol's poetic image doesn't, if you'll forgive the words used in the poem, hold water. There's limited research on crying, partly because of the difficulty of copying the behavior of real crying in a lab. But even within the previous studies, there's little evidence to suggest that crying provides a physiological cleansing of poisons in people's body.
Psychologists believe the relief of a good cry connects with a different emotional process. “It seems that crying occurs just after the peak of the emotional experience, and crying is associated with this return to homeostasis: the process of maintaining a stable psychological state,” said Lauren Bylsma. He also said holding back tears can have negative physical consequences, including headaches and muscle tension. Such restriction can also limit our experiences of joy, gratitude and other positive emotions if we avoid acknowledging our feelings.
For me crying has been easier said than done during the COVID-19. Psychologists say it's normal to feel stopped up by the stresses of the past year. We should find opportunities to release and process our emotions.
Watching a tear-jerking movie, having an emotional conversation with a close friend, and writing in a journal are healthy ways toelicita cry. Physical activity like light-footed walking or even dancing can also signal our bodies
to release some emotional tightness. We can then open up to the flow of feelings that leave us feeling lighter and refreshed—like a clear sky after a soaking rain.
8. What is the weakness of the studies ever clone on crying?
A. They were clone in a laboratory setting.
B. They cared little about different forms of crying.
C. They were always concentrated on people's daily life.
D. They showed little about the positive physical effect of crying.
9. What is the function of crying according to Lauren Bylsma?
A. Curing people of their diseases.
B. Keeping emotionally balanced.
C. Producing negative mental results.
D. Expanding people's experience of joy.
10. What does the underlined word “elicit” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Produce.
B. Postpone.
C. Control.
D. Repeat.
11. What are people advised to do according to the text?
A. Learn to hold back their tears wisely.
B. Share their emotion with their colleagues.
C. Have a good cry when necessary.
D. Try to avoid admitting our feelings.
D
What will future schools look like in 100 years? Imagine future schools in which students are totally engaged in a class. They are concentrating on working together to solve real-world problems. They are self-driven and are coming up withamazing ideas on the spot. They are concerned with each other’s well-being as part of a team. Their concerns reach far beyond the classroom to others all over the globe.
The school of the future will be an amazing melting pot of different peoples coming together to solve real-world problems.
Will they even be called “schools” in the future?
The teacher-student relationship is changing. Teachers are acting more as helpers rather than keepers of all knowledge. Students are driving their own education to the path that they feel best fits them. In the future, employers may not be as concerned with a diploma. They’ll look more at cases and examples of how students contribute to solving real-world problems. They’ll want to know how well they work in a team.
What will problem-solving look like in the future?
Information from the Internet is accessible everywhere and at unimaginable speeds. Kids are connected to news around the world in real time. Imagine someone could put out a request to the global community to help solve an issue in their own community! Classes can adopt an issue and work with other classes around the world in real time to create solutions.
What will information look like in the future?
It’s already everywhere. Users can get flooded by the constant flow of information. The need to understand what is true and what is not is important. The flipped classroom (翻转课堂) has already completely changed lecture-based lessons. It presents interesting content to students before they even come to class. They can access the Internet as many times as they want to review the lessons.
12. What is the key message of the first paragraph?
A. The things students will do in the future school.
B. The situation where students will be in the future.
C. The attention students will pay to in the classroom.
D. The methods students will use to study in the classroom.
13. What will be thought highly of when students solve real-world problems?
A. Respect.
B. Patience.
C. Teamwork.
D. Concern.
14. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?
A. Teachers encourage students to develop leadership.
B Students are really relaxed with their heavy study.
C. The employers value students’ diplomas most.
D. Students have the right to choose the most suitable lessons.
15. What’s the purpose of the flipped classroom?
A. To help students to improve the problem-solving ability.
B. To provide the lessons for students to study before or after class.
C. To help students to keep in contact with the outside world.
D. To help students to understand the most difficult content.

本文是记叙文，作者回忆了自己在高中的时候是如何调整自己的心态，如何积极地生活。

【51题详解】
考查时态。

句意：当我上学时，我开始以不同的方式思考，并做出更好的选择。

根据后文的began，可知是一般过去时，所以am需要变成过去式was，故将am改成was。

【52题详解】
考查副词。

句意：当我上学时，我开始以不同的方式思考，并做出更好的选择。

此处需要副词修饰动词think，故将different改为differently。

【53题详解】
考查固定搭配。

句意：我也加入了一些学校的俱乐部。

join clubs表示加入俱乐部，是固定搭配。

故将in去掉。

【54题详解】
考查冠词。

句意：这些帮助我成长为一个人。

person是可数名词，首字母的发音为辅音音素，此处表示泛指，应该用不定冠词a修饰，故在person前面加a。

【55题详解】
考查定语从句。

句意：我也学会了如何选择那些鼓励我、引导我、倾听我想法的朋友。

friends后面的从句是定语从句，修饰friends，先行词friends是人，在从句中做主语，关系词应该用who或that。

故将which 改为who/that。

【56题详解】
考查动词原形。

句意：我也学会了如何选择那些鼓励我、引导我、倾听我想法的朋友。

listen和前面动词encourage和guide并列，主语是friends，所以此处listen应该用原形形式。

故将listening改为listen。

句意：这就是为什么我现在平静、自信和快乐。

根据句意，peaceful, confident和happy是并列关系，应该用and连接，故将or改为and。

【58题详解】
考查不可数名词。

根据句意，此处表示没有空间，room作为“空间”时是不可数名词，没有复数形式，故将rooms改为room。

【59题详解】
考查人称代词。

句意：当我回想起那些高中的记忆时，它们好像是很久以前的事了。

此处指代前面的memories，应该用第三人称复数they，故将we改为they。

【60题详解】
考查介词。

句意：虽然那些日子已经过去了，但是它们仍然对我现在的工作和生活起到了很大的推动作用。

play a great role in表示“在…...中扮演着重要的角色”，是固定搭配，故将for改为in
52.略。
