High prams(婴儿车) with coverings that protect a baby's
head could go some way towards reducing exposure to
dangerous particle pollution.
By installing air quality sensors and taking prams for a
walk, a team at the University of Surrey, UK, has found that
higher prams are better, because most particle pollution is concentrated in the first metre above road level. On average, children in prams breathe at a height of about 0.85 metres, meaning they are exposed to about 60 percent more pollution than adults.
On top of this, particle pollution is more dangerous to babies than adults, says Jonathan Griggs at Queen Mary University of London, who was not involved in the study. Babies breathe faster than adults and they are easily hurt for the effects of pollution because the protective mechanisms in their lungs are not yet fully developed, he says.
When choosing the best pram for defending against pollution, the weather is also a factor. Hot summer air concentrates pollution close to the ground, making seat height particularly important. But when the air is cold, the heat from car exhausts(排气管) causes dangerous particles higher in the air, after which they fall. In these cases, prams with some kind of covering can help protect children from pollution falling down on them from above.
“There are very few existing studies to draw conclusive evidence on which pram design is best，”says Prashant Kumar, who led the research. So far he is only able to identify broad things to look for in a pram. In the future, it may be possible to purchase add­on air filter(过滤) systems for prams. One currently in development is called Brizi, which consists of a flat headrest with wings on either side of the baby's head. Air is sucked in on one side, cleaned, and blown out the other, creating a bubble of slightly higher air pressure, which keeps out particles.
“Designing better prams is only a temporary solution to dealing with pollution itself，”says Griggs. “It's certainly cautious not to stick your child next to an exhaust pipe, and most importantly reduce emissions on roads.”
()58. One of the research findings is that high prams with coverings are ________.
A. more convenient to push
B. helpful to block sunshine
C. good for protecting babies' heads
D. effective to protect babies from pollution
()59. What can parents do to protect babies?
A. Monitor their breathing rate.
B. Promote their lung development.
C. Offer comfortable seats in hot days.
D. Keep babies away from exhausts.
()60. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The benefit of high prams with coverings.
B. The development of air filter system for prams.
C. The necessity of designing the best prams.
D. The urgency of reducing particle pollution.
C
One sunny afternoon in the autumn of the year 1861 a soldier lay in clump of laurel(月桂树) by the side of a road in western Virginia. He lay at full length upon his stomach, his head upon the left forearm. His extended right hand loosely grasped his gun. But for the slight rhythmic movement of his back, he might have been thought to be dead. He was asleep at his post of duty. But if found he would be dead shortly afterward, death being the just and legal penalty of his crime.
The sleeping soldier was a young Virginian named Carter Druse. He was the son of wealthy parents, an only child. His home was but a few miles from where he now lay. One morning he had risen from the breakfast table and said, quietly but gravely: “Fa ther, the Union army has arrived at Grafton. I am going to join it.”
The father lifted his head, looked at the son a moment in silence, and replied, “Go, Carter, and whatever may occur, do what you consider to be your duty. Virginia, which you betray, must get on without you. Should we both live to the end of the war, we will speak further of the matter. Your
mother, as the physician has informed you, is in a most critical condition; at the best she cannot be with us longer than a few weeks, but that time is precious. It would be better not to disturb her.”
So Carter Druse, bowed to his father and left the home of his childhood. By conscience and courage, he was soon well received by his fellows and his officers; and it was to these qualities and to some knowledge of the country that he owed his selection for his present duty at the extreme post. Nevertheless, he fell asleep, exhausted. What good or bad angel came in a dream to awake him from his state of crime, who shall say? He quietly raised his forehead from his arm and looked between the laurels.
His first feeling was a keen artistic delight. On the cliff was a statue of impressive dignity. The figure of the man sat on the horse, straight and soldierly. The face of the rider, turned slightly away; he was looking downward to the bottom of the valley.
Broad awake and keenly alive now, Druse cautiously pushed the gun forward through the bushes and covered a vital spot of the horseman's breast. A touch upon the trigger(扳机) and all would have been well with Druse. At that instant the horseman turned and looked in his direction—seemed to look into his very face, into his eyes, into his brave heart.
Druse grew pale; he shook in every limb(四肢), turned faint. His hand fell away from his weapon, his head slowly dropped until his face rested on the leaves in which he lay.
The duty of the soldier was plain—the man must be shot dead. But no—there is a hope; he may have discovered nothing—perhaps he is but admiring the beauty of the landscape. Druse turned his head and looked through the deeps of air downward. He saw some foolish commander was permitting the soldiers to water their beasts in the open!
Druse withdrew his eyes from the valley and fixed them again upon the group of man and horse in the sky, and again it was through the sights of his gun. But this time his aim was at the horse. In his memory rang the words of his father, “Whatever may occur, do what you consider to be your duty.”
He fired.
Ten minutes had passed when a Federal officer crept cautiously to him.
“Did you fire？” the officer whispered.
“Yes.”
“At what？”
“A horse. It was standing on the rock, pretty far out. You see it is no longer there. It went ov er the cliff.”
The man's face was white, but he showed no other sign of emotion. Having answered, he turned away his eyes and said no more. The officer did not understand.
“See here, Druse，”he said, after a moment's silence, “it's no use making a mystery. I order you to report. Was there anybody on the horse？”
“Yes.”
“Well？”
“My father.”
()61. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. The soldier was thought to be dead.
B. The soldier was watching attentively.
C. The soldier was punished for his crime.
D. The soldier was sleeping on his duty.
()62. What can be concluded from Paragraphs 2 and 3?
A. The father discouraged the son.
B. The son decided to fight for his belief.
C. Both the son and the father survived the war.
D. The mother was critical about her son's decision.
()63. Why did Carter Druse fire in the end?
A. He did his duty.
B. He was cold­blooded.
C. He recognized the horse rider.
D. He pulled the trigger accidentally.
()64. The writer wrote this story mainly to show ________.
A. the greatness of the father
B. the inner thoughts of a soldier
C. the cruelty of the war
D. the bravery of a soldier

When Stephen Dennis, a retired homebuilder in Bellevue, was raising his two sons in the 1980s, he never heard the phrase “screen time”，nor did he worry much about the hours his kids spent with technology. When he bought an Apple II Plus computer, he considered it an investment in their future and encouraged them to use it as much as possible.
But things have changed with his grandkids and their Snapchat and Twitter.
“It almost seems like an addiction，”said Mr Dennis, “In the old days you had a computer and you had a TV and you had a phone but none of them were linked to the outside world but the phone. You didn't have this omnipresence(无所不在) of technology.”
True, the anxieties these days seem particularly severe—as, of course, they always have. Smartphones have a highly customized, 24/7 presence in our lives that feeds parental fears of antisocial behavior and stranger danger.
What hasn't changed, though, is a general parental fear of what kids are doing out of sight. In previous generations, this often meant kids wandering around on their own or slipping out at night to drink. These days, it might mean hiding in their bedroom, chatting with strangers online.
Less than a century ago, the radio set off similar fears. “The radio seems to find parents more helpless than did the funnies, the automobile, the movies and other earlier invaders of the home, because it cannot be locked out or the children be locked in，”Sidonie Matsner Gruenberg, director of the Child Study Association of America, told The Washington Post in 1931. She added that the biggest worry radio gave parents was how it interfered with other interests—conversation, music practice, group games, and reading. In the early 1930s a group of mothers from Scarsdale, N．Y., pushed radio broadcasters to change programs they thought were too “overstimulating, frightening, and emotionally overpowering”for kids, said Margaret Cassidy, a media historian at Adelphi University in New York.
Then television burst into the public consciousness with incomparable speed. By 1955, more than half of all US homes had a black­and­white set, according to Mitchell Stephens, a media historian at New York University.
The_hand­wringing_started_almost_as_quickly. A 1961 Stanford University study on 6，000 children, 2，000 parents, and 100 teachers found that more than half of the kids studied watched “adult”programs such as crime shows, and shows that featured “emotional problems”. Researchers were shocked at the TV violence present even in children's programming.
By the end of that decade, Congress had authorized $1 million(about $7 million today) to study the effects of TV violence, moving “literally thousands of projects”in the following years, Professor Cassidy said. That eventually led the American Academy of Pediatrics(AAP) to adopt, in 1984, its first recommendation that parents limit their kids' exposure to technology. The medical
association argued that television sent unrealistic messages around drugs and alcohol, could lead to overweight, and might fuel violence.
Video games presented a different challenge. Decades of study have failed to confirm the most widespread fear, that violent games encourage violent behavior. But from the moment the games appeared as a cultural force in the early 1980s, parents were anxious about the way kids could lose themselves in games as simple and repetitive as “Space Invaders”. Some cities sought to restrict the spread of arcades(游戏厅); Mesquite, Texas, for instance, insisted that the under­17 group needed parental monitoring.
Initially, the Internet—known as an “information superhighway”that could connect kids to the world's knowledge—got a similar pass for helping with homework and research. Yet as the Internet began linking people together, often in ways that connected previously lonely people, familiar concerns soon reappeared.
()65. What's the author's purpose in using the example in the first 3 paragraphs?
A. To explain the confusion of Dennis.
B. To show stable ways of teaching children.
C. To reveal the change of parents' anxiety.
D. To introduce the development of technology.
()66. Why do the anxieties seem so serious nowadays?
A. Children go out to drink in pubs at night.
B. Children always slip out to meet strangers.
C. Children often stay out with friends too late.
D. Children are deeply influenced by technology.
()67. What may be the worry about the radio for parents in the past?
A. Listening to the radio everywhere.
B. Disturbing the people's daily routine.
C. Broadcasting too many sad programs.
D. Making children become more selfish.
()68. The underlined part in Paragraph 8 means ________．
A. kids watched too many TV programs
B. many anxieties followed very fast
C. researchers conducted studies widely
D. violent programs appeared constantly
()69. What challenge did video games present?
A. Worries about video games could last long.
B. Violence could result from violent games.
C. The spread of arcades was out of control.
D. Kids could be addicted to video games.
()70. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Technology is harmful to the growth of kids.
B. Good old days are gone with the technology.
C. Concern about technology is a long­time affair.
D. Technology is actually like a two-edged sword.

Public Speaking
Public speaking can be defined as the act of making a speech in front of a group of listeners. Compared with conversation, usually public speaking is more of a “one­way”talking.
There are three types of public speaking. An informative speech has a purpose to inform, or give knowledge to its audience about something that they probably did not know of before. The important thing to watch about is not to put in too much information. Besides, the speaker would try to change the mindset, perception, or behavior of the audience for their own good. The speaker needs to look for common ground with the audience and try to relate to what they might agree on. Third, and the last type is a ceremonial speech. It tends to be less formal and more personal than the other types of speeches. No matter how well you know the person you are giving speech about, try not to say bad things about them, even if it is meant to be a joke.
The key of perfecting anything is through practice, including public speaking. Aside from it, a speaker is to know who the audience will be. Try to get as much information as possible regarding this particular area. Knowing the “battlefield” in advance will give the speakers a huge advantage. They would be able to plan beforehand, for example, where they want to stand, and how they are going to face the audience. Last, as is mentioned above, practice is necessary. Sparing some time to practice will help build confidence and help determine how long the presentation will last.
Language is the main aspect a speaker needs to pay attention to while giving a speech. It needs to be used clearly. A speaker needs to choose their words carefully and make it clear to the audience what they mean by it. Often, when given a speech, the audiences look up to the speaker to give them something new and useful. Thus, the speaker needs to know how to deliver their speech to fulfill the audiences' expectation. Language and delivery alone will not be sufficient if the speaker does not have the body language. The movement and gesture of a speaker also affect the audience. For example, if the speaker keeps pacing around the room, it will distract the audience from the topic and confuses them. When speaking in front of a small audience, you can look briefly from one person to another, but in a larger audience, it is not better to do so. While closing the speech or presentation, speakers can restate their main points, just to remind the audience of the important things that has been said. They can also end it with a special message and encourage the audience

With the development of technology, various means of communication have entered our lives. Data engineer and NYU teacher Fred Benenson raised over $3，500 online to fund his translation of Moby Dick into emojis­titled “Emoji Dick”. He hired helpers and translated the 200，000­word classic completely into pictures. In February of 2013, the Library of Congress welcomed it as the first ever emoji book in its collection.
Here's the first sentence, “Call me Ishmael.”
In 2017, a survey was conducted involving 40，000 Internet users and found that 82 percent of them used emojis in their conversations; 83 percent said that “happiness” and “smiley face” are the two emojis they use most; 57 per cent said that they would rather use emojis than words.

81. Possible version one：
Emojis have found their way into our phones, computers and lives. They have become so trendy that someone even translated an English classic into an emoji version, which was accepted by a library.
I think the use of emojis is probably the start of an exciting new era in communication and we should welcome it. When I send messages to my friends, emojis are necessary parts. I often use emojis to emphasize something, or to soften the tone. I find these “picture words”very helpful, for they can bring out my meaning and real intention much better and faster in written context than I ever could using just words. They are to written texts what facial expressions are to face-to-face interactions. Without emojis, you could easily run into misunderstanding. Emojis facilitate efficient communications.
Emojis are useful therefore inevitable. So stop being cynical and come join us in embracing the future.
Possible version two：
Emojis have found their way into our phones, computers and lives. They have become so trendy that someone even translated an English classic into an emoji version, which was accepted by a library.
Despite the seemingly wide appeal of emojis, I think emojis are ruining the English language. Emojis do offer a short cut to communication; with a tiny, cute picture you might save the painful efforts of wording. However, no pains no gains. This ease and comfort emojis offer may well lead to laziness and in the long run, undermine our ability of proper grammar and spelling, even resulting in illiteracy, with younger generations especially at stake. Emojis may seem funky but are sure informal. You should never hesitate to avoid them in formal context.
Therefore, we should limit the use of emojis in our communication. Young people should be warned against the danger emojis might bring to them.。
