I believe that mastering a foreign language is important. Therefore, it takes time and practice to become fluent in the foreign language. I think a good approach to learning about a foreign language is studying in a setting where only that language was spoken. This can be done by neither living in a country where the target language is spoken or attended a school where the target language is the primary medium of instruction. When you are involved in it, you are forced to use it constant. You can’t rely on your native language to communicate with other. This type of exposure to a foreign language help you learn the grammar and vocabulary much faster and effectively.

文章主要是围绕人们移动上网来讨论的。

先是列举了欧洲人阅读和移动上网的数据，分析了以手机为移动上网为主要方式的人们上网的主要原因等，通过对比和论述从而表达了作者的观点，相对于纸质阅读人们更愿意去用手机上网。

13. The new study shows that we spend more time using the mobile Internet than reading newspapers or magazines. According to the European Interactive Advertising Association (EIAA), the average European spends 4.8 hours reading newspapers and magazines but 1.6 hours more using the mobile Internet a week.
The EIAA questioned 15, 000 people in 15 European countries, looking at how people are using the Internet and its influence on their everyday lives. It has found that the mobile Internet is increasingly finding its way into the public awareness. Over 71 million Europeans now have Internet access on their mobiles phones. In the UK, 10 million people now access the Internet through their mobile phones and spend 6. 3 hours doing so in a week.
Unsurprisingly younger generations in the UK are leading the way, with nearly half of the country’s 16-to-24-year-olds and a quarter of 25-to-34-year-olds using the mobile Internet, spending 6.5 and 6.2 hours online each week.
Entertainment plays a major role in our mobile Internet lives, with one in five British people using their phones for online games, a third listening to the online radio and 39 percent watching films, TV or other videos at least once a week. One third of those using an Internet phone said they received videos, images or other multimedia on their mobile, and 61 percent said they passed on contents they received.
From a communication point of view, 80 percent of those questioned agreed that the Internet had made it easier for them to stay in touch with friends and family.
Alison Fennah, director of the EIAA, said the mobile Internet use had come to the point that marketers should be looking to develop strategies that connect with consumers more effectively. ‘‘Better devices as well as improved consumer motivation that start coming together in 2011 can make a great difference to extending the online experience.” Fennah said.

15. In the old days, when you had to drive to a movie theater of to to a video store to get some entertainment, it was easy to see how your actions could have an impact om the environment.You were hopping into your war, driving across town and coughing out emissions（排放）and using gas all the way.
But now that we’re used to staying at home and streaming movies, we might get a little cocky. After all ,we’re just picking up our phones or maybe turning on the TV. You’re welcome.Mother Nature.
Not so fast, says a recent report from the French-based Shit Project. Watching a half-hour show would lead to 3.5 pounds of CO2 emissions. That’s like driving 3.9 miles. According to "Climate Crisis: The Unsustainable Use of Online Video," digital technologies are responsible for 4% of greenhouse gas emissions, and that energy use is increasing by 9% a year. Stored in data centers, videos are transferred to our terminals such as computers, smart phones, etc. via networks: all these processes require electricity whose production consumes resources and usually involves CO2 emissions.
In the European Union, the Eureca project lead scientist, Rabih Bashroush, calculated that 5 billion downloads and streams of the song "Despacito" consumed as much electricity as the countries of Chad, Guinea-Bissau, Somalia, Sierra Leone and the Central African Republic used in a single year.
Streaming is only expected to increase as we become more attached to our devices. Online video use is expected to account for 80%of all internet traffic by 2022 according to CISCO. By then, about 60% of the world's population will be online.
You're probably not going to give up your streaming services, but there are things you con do to help lessen the impact of your online use.
Here are some tips:
※Disable autoplay for video on social media.
※Stream over Wi-Fi, not mobile networks.
※Watch on the smallest screen you can.
※Don’t use high-definition（高清）video on devices.
1. It can be inferred from paragraph 2 that people think .
A．they should welcome Mother Nature
B．watching movies at home is more fun
C．it is inconvenient to drive to a movie theater
D．streaming at home avoids possible emissions
2. We may learn from the text that .
A．3.9 miles may produce 3.5 pounds of CO2
B．digital technologies account for 4% of electricity use
C．Online video use makes up 80% of all internet traffic
D．60% of the world’s population watch videos online
3. Why are the five countries mentioned in paragraph 4?
A．To praise their energy-efficient practice.
B．To prove the poverty of the five countries
C．To stress the popularity of the song “Despacito”
D．To show the high energy use of downloads and streams
4. How can people help to save energy when streaming?
A．Use high-definition videos.B．Turn off video autoplay
C．Stream over mobile networks.D．Watch movies on bigger screens.
16. If you follow luxury resorts (度假地) or travel influencers on Instagram, odds are good that you’ve seen at least one “floating breakfast”.
In case you’re not familiar with them, here’s what to know: they’re your typical hotel room service breakfast-think toast, fruit, coffee and the like — served in a pool instead of in bed. Usually, they’re placed on large plates or colorful baskets, then accessorized (配饰) with bright tropical flowers to make them even more photogenic.
These breakfasts are particularly popular in Asia and the Pacific, especially at warm-weather private flat resorts in places like Thailand, Fiji and the Maldives.
Nearly everyone agrees that the trend began in Bali, although no specific resort seems to get the credit for coming up with the idea first.
While these breakfasts have become more common on resort menus over the last five years, the coronavirus pandemic has made them more popular than ever as hotel guests are avoiding buffets and public dining rooms.
“Across the course of the past year, in-suite dining has become extremely popular, especially for those seeking comfort in the safety and their room,” Jann Hess, general manager at Amanjiwo in Bali. “The floating breakfast is a popular choice.”
After all, the floating breakfast needs a pool to float in — and a private pool is a much better choice than a shared pool where a splashing (飞溅的) kid might make the whole thing topple over.
Though the gorgeous colors and dramatic plating of floating breakfasts make them perfect for social media, asking people to stand in the pool before they’ve fully woken up or had caffeine seems like a potential recipe for disaster.
James Booth, a Sydney-based reporter, tells that, for him, the special meal worked better in concept. Though Booth had pre-scheduled a specific time for the breakfast to arrive, he ended up oversleeping about 20 minutes, meaning he’d missed the optimal window for consuming it.
1. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us?
A．What “floating breakfast” is like.B．Why “floating breakfast” is popular.
C．What you should know in luxury resorts.D．How we can enjoy “floating breakfast”.
2. Why does the coronavirus pandemic make “floating breakfast” more popular?
A．It provides a more healthy diet.B．People avoid meeting in groups.
C．It saves a lot of money to eat out.D．People wants to try the new trend.
3. What does the underlined word “optimal” in the last paragraph mean?
A．Small.B．Broad.C．Open.D．Most ideal.
4. What is a suitable title for the text?
A．How floating breakfast develops B．Two sides of floating breakfast
C．Floating breakfast, a popular trend D．Reasons why floating breakfast comes up

主要介绍了关于如何提高工作效率的实用建议和方法。

17. How to be more productive
Getting things done isn’t working all day at 100 miles an hour. 1 . And the following tips can definitely help you.
2
Smaller tasks like answering emails are “shallow work”. Try to be more conscious of what your shallow tasks are, and give yourself permission to block them out for a while so you can focus on the important tasks that require “deep work”.
Call it a day
For good productivity, be strict about when your working day is over, and when you get to the end of your planned work session, ease yourself into a more relaxed state. Look through your unfinished work. 3 . Then close that textbook or laptop and say something out loud like “Shutdown complete!” After that? Have some fun. Give your mind the rest it’s earned.
Find your top level goal
4 . Find the big thing that we could call your life’s purpose, like inspiring others, or helping people in society. Put that at the top. On the next level you’ll have mid-level goals like passing an exam. The goals below-it-should all feed into your top-level. They’ll be smaller, more practical things — perhaps writing an email, or doing some research. If they don’t help with achieving your top goal, then get rid of them!
Make your breaks smarter
Time-management master Francesco Cirillo says that for every 25 minutes of intense concentration, you should take five off to do nothing at all, which gives the brain time to recover and keeps your productivity high. 5 . Move around, stare out of a window.
A．Shut out the shallow
B．Make out the shallow
C．Find some pictures of kittens and puppies first
D．Organise your priorities by making a pyramid of goals
E．In the five-minute breaks, don’t jump on your phone
F．Write a short plan of how you’ll tackle it tomorrow
G．Looking for ways to do less and get more done actually makes more sense

As the planet warms and the weather becomes increasingly erratic (无常的), natural snow is becoming less reliable for winter sports, 4 forces venues (场地) to depend more on artificial snow. But it comes at a cost: man-made snow needs many resources, 5 (require) huge amounts of energy and water to produce in a climate that’s getting warmer and warmer. Athletes also said that the sports 6 (they) became more difficult and less safe when man-made snow was involved.
Traditionally, snow-making has relied 7 (heavy) on snow guns and temperatures at or below freezing. To adapt to warmer temperatures and lower elevations (海拔), 8 different approach needs to be taken.
Making snow demands much energy and water. And with 1.2 million cubic meters of snow 9 (need) to cover roughly 80, 000 square meters of competition area, the water demand at this year’s Winter Olympics was massive.
Now, it becomes more and more common to use artificial snow at winter sports 10 (event). That’s true even in places that used to have a lot of snow naturally.。
