From participating in English debate clubs to volunteering at local charities, where we practice our communication skills by interacting with native speakers, every experience is a stepping stone towards fluency.This semester has been a whirlwind of new experiences and challenges, but I am grateful for every moment.

In the summer of 2014, herschedule was packed with friends, marriage celebrations—flowers --- filled occasions that got her thinking, “Where do all the flowers go after the party?” More often than not, they were thrown out. Law, then 27, was confident she could find a better use for them. By August,she had a plan: convince couples and companies hosting events to donate their flowers, which she would pick up and deliver within 48 hours to seniors across the city. She wanted to bring beauty into the lives of the elderly. She drew on her experience volunteering with non-profits in order to set up her own organization, which she called Floranthropie. Not having enough bouquets (花束) for all 150 people of a health center, Law asked the staff to provide a list of patients who needed cheering up most, “The first woman I approached thought it was a mistake, and that the flowers couldn’t possibly be for her,” says Law. “I said they were a gift, and we talked for a half hour.”In addition to health centers, Floranthropie focuses on community groups devoted to the elderly. Theleme is a volunte er for Les Petits Fieres, an organization that aims to help the elderly who don’t have a support system. The group receives a dozen or so bouquets from Floranthropie monthly, and then redistributes them. “Our motto is‘flowers before bread,” says Theleme. “We don’t focus on primary care, but rather on nourishing (滋养) the spirit. Floranthropie helps that. It’s amazing what a big difference a small bouquet can make.”In the beginning, most of Floranthropie’s donations came through word of mouth. These days, L aw receives messages from strangers via her organization’s Facebook page and has connected with corporations and flower wholesalers. Law hopes to expand Floranthropie nationally, but at this point is happy to be able to oversee each delivery personally.4. What made Christine Law set up Floranthropie?A. The Waste of flowers.B. The loneliness of seniors.C. The persuasion of other friends.D. The warm atmosphere of weddings.5. What was the woman’s first reaction to Christine Law’s flowers?A. She was moved.B. She was excited.C. She was worried.D. She was surprised.6. What can we infer about Floranthropie from Laetitia Theleme’s words?A.It should focus on primary care.B. It is benefiting more than the elderly.C. It is doing something of great importance.D. It should cooperate with more non-profits. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. V olunteer Your Time B. Don’t Throw Them Out C. Special Delivery Makes Your Day D. Brighten Seniors’ Lives With Flowers C You try to keep your eyes wide open while watching a basketball match or a wonderful firework show in caseyou might miss something exciting in just the blink of an eye. But in fact, humans blink about 15 times per minute on average. Have you ever missed anything because you blinked? Probably not. Why is that?According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September, our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink. It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form an image without interruption. In order to understand how this works,a group of scientists at the German Primate Center and the University Medical Center Gottingen in Germany conducted an experiment. In the study, the participants were asked to look at patterns on a screen whose direction could be interpreted in different ways, such as horizontally(水平地) or vertically(垂直地). When one pattern was about to disappear and the next one was about to come, the participants had to indicate the direction that the next pattern would appear.The researchers found that when the directions of two patterns didn’t ma tch, the area in our brain which is responsible for visual memory was activated. This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction.“The medial prefrontal cortex(前额叶皮层) adjusts current visual information with previously obtained information, and thus enables us to perceive the world with more stability, even when we briefly close our eyes to blink, ” Caspar Schwiedrzik explained in Science Daily. He is the first author of the study and also a scientist at the German Primate Center.8. We don’t miss anything when blinking because our brain can ________.A. deal with the missing imageB. remember all that we seeC. imagine what our eyes missD. put our pieces of memory together9. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Our brain.B. Visual information.C. Current Biology.D. The temporary darkness.10. What do we know about the experiment?A. The two patterns appear at the same time.B. Visual memory can be more activated by similarity.C. Participants can interpret patterns differently.D. The different directions activated visual memory.11. What would be the best title for this passage?A. The Brain’s StructureB. The Brain’s Activated PatternsC. The Brain’s Special SkillD. The Brain’s ReactionDIn the story of “The crow and the Pitcher” from Aesop’s Fables, a thisty crow (乌鸦)drops stones into a narrow jar to raise the low level of water inside so he can take a drink.Now scientists have evidence to back up that story. Crows actually do understand how to make water displacement (移位) work to their advantage, experiments show. The results suggest that the birds are, at least in some aspects, as smart as first-graders.Researchers, led by Sarah Jelbert at the University of Auckland in New Zealand, presented six crows with tubes filled with water. Inside the tubes, a worm or piece of meat on a piece of wood was floating, just out of reach of the crow. In front of the tubes, the researchers arranged several rubber erasers that would sink, and some plastic objects that would float. The crows found out that they could drop the erasers into the tubes in order to raise the water level and get their snack. However,the birds handled awkwardly in experiments in which they could choose to drop objects in either a wide tube or a narrow one to get a snack, the researchers said. Dropping objects into narrow tube would lift the water level by a greater amount and put the treat within reach after just two drops; while it took around seven drops to raise the snack to the sam e level in the wide tube. The crows obviously didn’t realize this, and most of them went for the wide tube first.Previous studies showed that chimps and human children can solve similar tasks. In a 2011 study, chimps and kids found out that they could put water into a tube to reach a peanut that was floating in a small amount of water atthe bottom.12. How did the crows get the snack in Sarah’s experiment?A. By breaking the tube.B. By dropping in erasers.C. By standing on the wood.D. By removing the wood.13. What does the author mean by “the birds handled awkwardly” in paragraph 4?A. They were unable to tell different shapes.B. They dropped objects only into narrow tubes.C. They were not aware of the snack at first sight.D. They mostly avoided the easier way to get the snack.14. What does the text mainly focus on?A. Stories of Aesop’s Fables.B. The development of crows.C. Crows’ intelligence.D. Human-animal communication.15. What can we learn from the passage?A. Crows are almost as clever as first-graders in some respects.B. Crows understand water displacement completely.C. Chimps and children are much smarter than crows.D. The story of “The crow and the Pitcher” lacks evidence.第二节七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

After viewing his broadcasts, many netizens expressed a desire to visit the museum when it reopens after the COVID-19 outbreak.It is estimated that more than 30 museums in China, including the National Museum of China and the Dunhuang Academy China, have hosted live broadcasts on online platforms during the epidemic (流行病), each gaining over 10 million viewers in one day. The Gansu Provincial Museum, one of the museums that have been exploring online platforms and using them, attracted as many as 900, 000 viewers at one point in its live broadcasts, more than half of its total viewers last year, according to the deputy curator (副馆长) of the museum.

Working together can create a win-win situation.Traveling is meant to be an enjoyable activity where you can relax and find pleasure. But one small town in Vermont, US, has closed its roads to the public due to the overwhelming (压倒性的) number of tourists, reported the news site Local 10.Famous for its beautiful autumn leaves, Pomfret, a small town with over 900 people, has been crowded with tourists attracted by beautiful pictures of the town shared on social media sit es like TikTok and Instagram. This has led to “significant safety, environmental and quality of life issues, ” the Select Board of Pomfret wrote in a message to the community.Admittedly, the popularity of social media has opened up more of the world for visitors to explore. By using functions such as geotagging (地理标记) through which you can share your location, people are looking for and sharing these destinations, especially in rural areas like the small town of Pomfret. A rise in social media presence also brings the potential for greater tourism income and jobs for people in these travel sites.Social media is also often blamed for causing over-tourism. These places aren’t properly equipped to receive tourists. They can easily become overcrowded. Overcrowding leads to the worst problems of tourism: more traffic and rubbish, without more money coming in.Social media has changed not only the destinations people travel to, but the way they behave once they get there. Getting the perfect photo is a top priority (优先事项) for many. “People are dressing for the photo rather than the destination or the customs, and there can be a big disconnect there, ” Lauren Siegel of the University of Greenwich said.8．Why did Pomfret decide to close its roads to the public?A. Some important people will visit it.B. Local people don’t like outsiders.C. Overcrowding has caused problems.D. The town needs some reconstruction.9．What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A. The trend of traveling to unknown places.B. The positive effect of social media on tourism.C. The importance of having a social media presence.D. The popularity of sharing locations on social media.10．Why can places like Pomfret be easily overcrowded?A. They offer tourists high-quality service.B. They lack good tourist control measures.C. They advertise too much on social media.D. They don’t have the proper tourist facilities (设施).11．According to the text, how has social media changed travelers’ behavior?A. They dress appropriately for their destinations.B. They pay more attention to the local customs.C. They disconnect from social media.D. They are more focused on taking photos.“The failure to play is now a serious issue and it calls for action for change,” says Sir Ken Robinson, a leading expert in education, creativity and human development. This is the driving force behind Outdoor Classroom Day - a global teacher-led campaign, supported by Dirt is Good, a company producing daily chemical products.Outdoor Classroom Day, taking place on 17th May and 1st November this year, will see schools around the world swap the inside for the playground and beyond to make playtime a key part of the school day. This might involve using natural objects like stones to do sums, or going on an insect hunt to encourage curiosity. By now, Outdoor Classroom Day has grown from a grassroots movement to a global campaign that is expected to benefit five million children and over 40,000 schools from all around the world.This is helping to change the trend that sees many schools selling up or building up on their playgrounds and cutting back on playtime to make more room for academic studies, while at home children’s lives are increasingly filled with organized activities intended to help them learn. Today globally 61% of parents surveyed in the Dirt is Good Qualitative Study said that children don’t know how to play without using technology.Outdoor Classroom Day is making playing time happen, with 22% of participating schools having increased their playtime since joining the campaign. 93% of teachers surveyed saw improvements in children’s creativity after playing outside and 97% believethat time outdoors is necessary for children to reach their full potential.Scientific studies show that real play - the active, physical, self-directed play - is essential for children to develop key life skills that are not taught elsewhere. Few would question the value of developing creativity, leadership, resourcefulness, and curiosity. 12．What do children do on Outdoor Classroom Day?A. Have PE. classes on the playgrounds.B. Have a day off and go playing anywhere.C. Learn and play by using natural things outside.D. Play on their own without the teachers’ guidance.13．Why do children spend less time outdoors?A. Schools stop providing playgrounds.B. Adults ignore the importance of playtime.C. Parents prefer to homeschool their children.D. Technology helps children learn better at home.14．What’s the school teachers’ attitude towards the campaign?A. Positive.B. Uncertain.C. Unconcerned.D. Negative. 15．What’s the purpose of the passage?A. To introduce an activity.B. To advertise a product.C. To entertain the public.D. To persuade students to play.Dog owners walked about 23 minutes longer each day than non-dog owners. In a new study, dog owners took 2, 760 additional steps-compared to people who didn’t have a dog at home. But here’s the real good news: That extra exercise could help adults meet their recommended weekly totals for physical activity.The research, published in BMC Public Health, focused on adults 65 and older, who tend to be less active than younger people. The study included 43 dog owners and 43 non-dog owners, all of whom were monitored (监控) continuously for three week-long periods. When they compared the two groups, the researchers found that dog ownership was connected with a large, potentially health-improving effect.Dog owners walked about 23 minutes longer each day than non-dog owners, 119 minutes against 96 minutes on average. They also took an additional 2, 760 steps, and had eight fewer continuous periods of sitting down. Most of that extra walking was done at proper pace, 100 or more steps a minute. Dog owners walked at this pace for 32 minutes a day, against just 11 minutes a day for non-dog owners.The World Health Organization (WHO) suggests that adults get at least 150 minutes ofphysical activity a week. This increased walking time alone could satisfy that requirement, say the researchers - so it makes sense that 87 percent of dog owners in the study met these guidelines, versus just 47 percent of non-dog owners.Co-author Nancy Gee says that pet ownership may help older adults get more activity or keep their current activity level for a longer period of time. “This could improve their chances of a better quality of life, improved cognition (认知), and perhaps, even a long life, ” she said. Here at Health, we’ll add that caring for pets has been shown to have plenty of other physical and mental health benefits as well.16．What can we learn about the research?A. It was targeted at old people.B. It had an undesirable effect on dog owners.C. It was sponsored (资助) by the BMC Public Heal.D. It mainly considered the mental health of dog owners.17．What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3?A. To show the guidelines of the research.B. To present the results of the research.C. To describe the process of doing the research.D. To explain the reasons for conducting the research.18．What does Nancy Gee think of owning a dog?A. It will take a lot of time.B. It will surely help people live a long life.C. It enables older adults to live a healthy life.D. It helps young adults to improve their quality of life.19．What is the best title for the text?A. Young people walk less todayB. Animal lovers are healthierC. Non-pet owners enjoy more pleasureD. Dog owners walk way more二、七选五20．At school, were you ever told to stop daydreaming and concentrate? It was easy for your mind to wander if you weren’t interested in the subject.①_________ But understanding how to do it, and knowing what is distracting you, can help.Scientists have looked at what makes us procrastinate (拖延) and found a number of ways to help us stay focused. ② _________ Research by Science Focus magazine found thatsilence is best for concentration, but gentle coffee shop noise - for example - is also useful!

An article by Caroline Williams says, “Attention Researcher Nilli Lavic of University College London has found that making a task more visually demanding takes up more processing power and leaves the brain nothing left to process distractions. ”④ _________There are more practical tips toward keeping your mind focused. These include making a list of your tasks, finding a quiet workspace or even chewing some gum! It’s possible that the movement in your mouth occupies parts of the brain that might otherwise get distracted.

Distraction is vital for survival.B. Staying focused can still be a challenge in adult life.C. Therefore, keeping yourself busy might be one answer.D. Your ability to concentrate well affects how effective you are.E. Another possible cure for a short attention span is brain training.F.

In the summer of 2014, her schedule was packed with fr iends’ marriage celebrations—flower-filled occasions that got her thinking, “Where do all the flowers go after the party？” More often than not, they were thrown away. Law was confident she could find a better use for them.By August, she had a plan：convince couples and companies hosting events to donate their flowers, which she would pick up and deliver within 48 hours to seniors across the city. She wanted to bring beauty into the lives of the elderly. She drew on her experience through being a volunteer in non-profit institutions in order to set up her own organization, which she called Floranthropie. Not having enough bouquets(花束) for all 150 people of a health center, Law asked the staff to provide a list of patients who needed cheering up most. “The fir st woman I approached thought it was a mistake, and that the flowers couldn’t possibly be for her，” says Law. “I said they were a gift, and we talked for a half hour.”In addition to health centers, Floranthropie focuses on community groups devoted to the elderly. Laëtitia Thélème is a volunteer for Les Petits Fières, an organization that aims to help the elderly who don’t have a support system. The group receives a dozen or so bouquets from Floranthropie monthly, and then redistributes them. “Our motto is ‘flowers before bread’，” says Thélème. “We don’t focus on primary care, but rather on nourishing(滋养) the spirit. Floranthropie helps us do that. It’s amazing what a big difference a small bouquet can make.”In the beginning, most of Floranthropie’s donatio ns came through word of mouth. These days, Law receives messages from strangers via her organization’s Facebook page and has connected with corporations and flower wholesalers. Law hopes to expand Floranthropie nationally, but at this point is happy to be able to oversee each delivery personally.4．What made Christine Law set up FloranthropieA．The waste of flowers. B．The loneliness of seniors.C．The persuasion of other friends. D．The warm atmosphere of weddings. 5．What was the woman’s reaction to Christine Law’s flowers?A．She was moved. B．She was excited. C．She was worried. D．She was surprised.6．What can we infer about Floranthropie from Laëtitia Thélème’s words?A．It should focus on primary care. B．It is benefiting more than the elderly. C．It is doing something of great importance. D．It should cooperate with more non-profit institutions.7．What is the best title for the text?A．V olunteer Your Time B．Don’t Throw Flowers Away C．Special Delivery Makes Your Day D．Brighten Seniors’ Lives with FlowersCYou try to keep your eyes wide open while watching a basketball match or a wonderful firework show in case you might miss something exciting in just the blink of an eye. But in fact, humans blink about 15 times per minute on average. Have you ever missed anything because you blinked? Probably not. Why is that?According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September, our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink. It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form an image without interruption.In order to understand how this works, a group of scientists at the German Primate Center and the University Medical Center Gottingen in Germany conducted an experiment. In the study, the participants were asked to look at patterns on a screen whose direction could be interpreted in different ways, such as horizontally(水平地) or vertically(垂直地). When one pattern was about to disappear and the next one was about to come, the participants had to indicate the direction that the next pattern would appear.The researchers found that when the directions of two patterns didn’t match, the area in our brain which is responsible for visual memory was activated. This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction.“The medial prefrontal co rtex(前额叶皮层) adjusts current visual information with previously obtained information, and thus enables us to perceive the world with more stability, even when we briefly close our eyes to blink, ” Caspar Schwiedrzik explained in Science Daily. He is the first author of the study and also a scientist at the German Primate Center.8．We don’t miss anything when blinking because our brain can ________．A．deal with the missing image B．remember all that we seeC．imagine what our eyes miss D．put our pieces of memory together 9．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．Our brain. B．Visual information. C．Current Biology. D．The temporary darkness.10．What do we know about the experiment?A．The two patterns appear at the same time. B．Visual memory can be more activated by similarity.C．Participants can interpret patterns differently. D．The different directions activated visual memory.11．What would be the best title for this passage?A．The Brain’s Structure B．The Brain’s Activated Pa tternsC．The Brain’s Special Skill D．The Brain’s ReactionDIn the story of the Crow and the Pitcher from Aesop’s Fables, a thirsty crow drops stones into a narrow jar to raise the low level of water inside so he can take a drink.Now scientists have evidence to back up that story. Crows actually do understand how to make water displacement(排水量) work to their advantage, experiments show. The results suggest that the birds are, at least in some aspects, as smart as first-graders.Researchers, led by Sarah Jelbert at the University of Cambridge, presented six crows with tubes containing water. Inside the tubes, a worm or a piece of meat on a piece of wood was floating, just out of reach of the crow. In front of the tubes, the researchers arranged several rubber erasers that would sink, and some plastic objects that would float. The crows found out that they could drop the erasers into the tubes in order to raise the water level and get their snack.However, the birds handled awkwardly in experiments in which they could choose to drop objects in either a wide tube or a narrow one to get a snack, the researchers said. Dropping objects into a narrow tube would lift the water level by a greater amount and put the treat within reach after just two drops; while it took around seven drops to raise the snack to the same level in the wide tube. The crows obviously didn’t realize this, and most of them went for the wide tube first.Previous studies showed that chimps and human children can solve similar tasks. In a 2011 study, chimps and kids found out that they could put water into a tube to reach a peanut that was floating in a small amount of water at the bottom.12．How did the crows get the snack in Sarah’s experiment?A．By breaking the tube. B．By dropping in erasers.C．By standing on the wood. D．By removing the wood.13．What does the underlined part “the birds handled awkwardly” mean in Paragraph 4?A．They were unable to tell different shapes. B．They dropped objects only into narrow tubes.C．They were not aware of the snack at first sight. D．They mostly avoided the easier way to get the snack.14．What does the text mainly focus on?A．Stories of Aesop’s Fables.B．The development of crows. C．Crows’ intelligence.D．Human-animal communication. 15．What do we know about crows in the passage?A．Crows are almost as clever as first-graders in some aspects.B．Crows understand water displacement completely.C．Chimps and children are much smarter than crows.D．The story of the Crow and the Pitcher lacks evidence.第二节七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

I thought it would lower my interactions (互动) with others. But when I got to experience it firsthand, I was surprised.Recently, we did a poetry project, and one of the activities was a partner review. I would never have taken part if it was up to me, as I prefer to work independently. But when I got involved, I found the experience had done something I thought nearly impossible—it made my poem better. My partner informed me of my mistakes and told me where I could give more details.One of our final products of the project was to present our poem to the class. I’ve always loved public speaking, but I thought with Summit Learning I would have fewer chances to speak. I was wrong. The activities we did with a partner gave me an extra push of confidence and inspired me to do more to make my presentation the best it could possibly be.Interactions like these are what Summit Learning is all about. This style of learning brings a positive, hard-working culture that allows you to push your limits and keep going. It creates a sense of community, since we are all working towards a similar goal.I have always been ahead and advanced, but in a normal classroom there are limits on what you can do. With Summit Learning, I can go beyond expectations in projects or move ahead in learning new content when I’m ready. I have ownership of my work and work towards my goals.Summit Learning has showed me how much people can grow and change. It has helped me see people and myself differently. It has been one of the greatest experiences of my life, and I cannot see myself back to a “normal” classroom.4．What was the author’s first response to Summit Learning?A．He was eager to take part.B．He was anxious to show up.C．He was ready to give up.D．He was unwilling to attend.5．How did the poetry project benefit the author?A．It improved his poem and confidence.B．It reminded him to be independent.C．It gave him a chance to speak publicly.D．It gave him a sense of responsibility. 6．What can be inferred about Summit Learning?A．It highlights poetry.B．It transforms the learning style.C．It values individuality.D．It teaches public presentation.7．How does the author find Summit Learning now?A．Rigid.B．Challenging.C．Inspiring.D．Normal.No business would welcome being compared to gambling (赌博). Yet that is what is happening to makers of video games. For years parents have complained that their children are “addicted” to their video games and smartphones. Today, however, even more doctors are using the term. On January 1 this year, “gaming disorder” — in which games are played uncontrollably, despite causing harm — gained recognition from the World Health Organization (WHO).Are games really addictive? Psychologists have different opinions. Those who don’t think so say that this is just another moral panic. Similar warnings have been given about television, rock’n’roll, jazz, comic books, novels and even crossword puzzles, but it turns out that they are not as harmful as expected.However, supporters argue that game developers have the motivation and the means to design their products to make them extremely attractive. For one thing, the business- model has changed: In the old days, games were bought once and for all. But these days, games are free and money is earned from buying of in-game goods, which ties playtime directly to profit they make. For another, game-makers combine psychological theory and data, which helps them maximize the playtime. Smart phones and modern video game machines use their permanent Internet connections to send gameplay data back to developers. In this way products are constantly adjusted to encourage players’ spending. The biggest spenders are known as “whales”, a term thatoriginated in casinos (赌场).The gaming industry should realize that, in the real world, it has a problem, and that problem is growing. Now that gaming addiction comes with an official WHO recognition, diagnoses will become more common. Anyway, being put together with gambling in the public mind, fairly or not, will not do the industry any good.8．What do we know from Paragraph 1?A．It is not suitable to compare video games to gambling.B．Parents complain about their children’s addiction to gambling.C．Gaming addiction was officially recognized as a disease.D．More doctors are against the use of the term “addicted”.9．What does the underlined words “moral panic” in Paragraph 2 mean?A．Unexpected addiction caused by science and technology.B．Wrong judgment on how harmful something is.C．Trouble caused by someone’s immoral behavior.D．A shocking statement of the unexpected panic.10．What do games developers do to make games attractive?A．They don’t charge players for in-game goods.B．They keep players’ video game machines updated.C．They reward big spenders with a unique title.D．They adjust products based on received data.11．In the last paragraph, the author aims to _______.A．offer a suggestion B．make a predictionC．give a warning D．put forward a solutionOur teenagers are lonely. A new study by Harvard’s Making Caring Common (MCC) shows just how that feeling has been common and become serious during the past year when we had to keep the social distance. One year’s online learning and life in the bedrooms rather than the classrooms or dorm rooms can make teenagers feel lonelier than before. Teenagers have been more likely to be influenced by loneliness than older adults.Experiencing loneliness is certainly sad, but it is also perilous. Researchers found that 63％of the young were suffering from bad sleep, anxiety, and poor health during the lockdown(活动限制) and that nearly a quarter had started or increased some bad habits, including smoking, drinking and staying up late to deal with their feelings.About half of the young people in the study, who said they had felt lonely, explained that over the past weeks not one person had taken more than just a few minutes to ask how they had been lately. It made them feel they had no one who really cared about them. Their parents thought they had much free time after lessons and it seemed that they only worried whether their children could perform their schoolwork at the level they once did. They didn’t know the problem.Sian Leah Beilock, the president of Barnard College, explains that young people depend on social media, which makes them especially weak to social media’s harms. She also suggests that fewer close friends may explain some of the feelings of loneliness. She reports that in 1985 the average American had three close friends with whom they could share important things about their lives. In 2004, that number had dropped to just two friends. And in 2019. one in five millennials(千禧一代) had no friends at all.These levels of loneliness are heartbreaking. MCC suggests, as a nation, we first should focus on teaching the young to make meaningful connections between people and support them. 12．What is the finding of MCC’S study?A．Every teenager has lonely moments.B．Parent-child communication becomes less.C．Teenagers care too much about others’ opinions.D．Lockdown lifestyles increase teenagers’ loneliness.13．What does the underlined word “perilous” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A．Dangerous.B．Funny.C．Helpful.D．Uncommon. 14．What do the young people’s words in the study mean?A．Their parents misunderstood them.B．They found their schoolwork heavy.C．They needed more care and attention.D．Their online courses made them bored.15．Which of the following may Sian Leah Beilock agree with?A．Teenagers are short of outdoor exercise.B．Teenagers should make more close friends in real life.C．Teenagers enjoy developing close relationships online.D．Teenagers should avoid sharing important things online.How to Fit In with a New EnvironmentWhen you step into a new environment, you must have a strong wish to fit in. Fitting in means making more friends, having more influence on others and getting more chances to live a happier life. 16Be confident. Confidence attracts most people. Everyone is special and there is only one person like you in this world. Spend some time thinking about your strong points. 17 You won’t have much difficulty fitting in.Be kind to everyone. Kindness is the bridge to your own happiness. When people notice your kindness, they will return it one day. Always give more than you receive, and think more of others than of yourself. 1819 Kinds of activities like playing football can help you to be known to others. You may add more friends to your circle. At the same time, you’ll be amazed to see how much they like you. Instead of wasting time being alone, go out to dance and sing together with others to develop friendship.Be optimistic (乐观的). Optimism makes both you and others feel happy. 20 Humor catches others’ attention as well. People will like you for making them live happily.If you follow what is mentioned above, you will be accepted by people around you. As a result, you will fit in very well and enjoy your new life.A．Be active in group activities.B．However, everybody needs friends.C．Here are some tips that can help you.D．A pleasant smile costs the least and does the most.E．A person who cares about others is popular everywhere.F．Even so, it often leaves one to wonder if we fit in well.G．If so, you will be able to build up confidence step by step.二、完形填空I sat down at my desk and started writing a letter of thankfulness, but when it came to actually putting the letter into the mailbox, I 21 I couldn’t do it. I suddenly felt a sense of 22 and insecurity (不安).The letter was to an old teacher with whom I kept in 23 on Facebook. For months, I read about what she 24 on her Facebook page, which helped me to live my life differently. Her volunteer work wasn’t huge. 25 , she was doing small, local good deeds. Gradually, she changed my views on the world and for some reason, I felt I should let her know how her example 26 influenced me.I could have easily sent her an email, but that seemed not enough for such an important thank-you. That’s why I ended up 27 the letter. But now here I was, standing before the mailbox, unable to put the envelope inside. What was stopping me? It suddenly hit me that I was 28 of being too nice. I guessed I felt strange because it wasn’t like she was my best friend or a relative. Maybe my letter was too heartfelt. Thinking this over, I put the envelope in the mailbox 29 .Weeks later I received a Facebook response from her. It turned out she was going through a hard time and my note 30 a lot to her. She said she had no idea that she was playing such a big 31 in others’ life.Not only did this letter make her happier, but her 32 increased my joy as well. I was so excited that it had such a great influence on her that I decided to write a(n) 33 letter to someone each month.

Chances are that if you’rethat bandwagon.I experienced this when I started switching to a zero waste lifestyle five years ago, as I was living with my parents, and I continue to experience this with my husband, as he is not completely zero waste like me. I’ve learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you’ll find encouraging if you’re doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household.Zero waste was a radical lifestyle movement a few years back. I remember showing my parents a video of Bea Johnson, sharing how cool I thought it would be to buy groceries with jars, and have so little trash! A few days later, I came back with my first jars of zero waste groceries, and my dad commented on how silly it was for me to carry jars everywhere. It came off as a bit discouraging.Yet as the months of reducing waste continued, I did what I could that was within my own reach. I had my own bedroom, so I worked on removing things I didn’t need. Since I had my own toiletries (洗漱用品), I was able to start personalising my routine to be more sustainable. I also offered to cook every so often, so I portioned out a bit of the cupboard for my own zero waste groceries. Perhaps your household won’t entirely make the switch, but you may have some control over your own personal spaces to make the changes you desire.As you make your lifestyle changes, you may find yourself wanting to speak up for yourself if others comment on what you’re doing, which can turn itself into a whole household debate. If you have individuals who are not on board, your words probably won’t do much and can often leave you feeling more discouraged.So here is my advice: Lead by action.4．What do the underlined words “jump on that bandwagon” mean in the first paragraph?A．Share an apartment with you.B．Join you in what you’re doing.C．Transform your way of living.D．Help you to make the decision. 5．What was the attitude of the author’s father toward buying groceries with jars?A．He disapproved of it.B．He was favorable to it.C．He was tolerant of it.D．He didn’t care about it.6．What can we infer about the author?A．She is quite good at cooking.B．She respects others’ privacy.C．She enjoys being a housewife.D．She is a determined person.7．What is the text mainly about?A．How to get on well with other family members.B．How to have one’s own personal space at home.C．How to live a zero waste lifestyle in a household.D．How to control the budget when buying groceries.Osa is an athletic yet stubborn 62-pound German shepherd(德国牧羊犬). The six-year-old dog has mastered the art of sniffing(嗅) out cancer and is key to a research project that has the potential to change oncology(肿瘤学).Osa is part of an ambitious effort launched five years ago at the University of Pennsylvania that aims to develop one of the most powerful scent-detection machines in the world: the canine nose. She is able to distinguish between blood samples taken from cancer patients and their healthy peers simply by sniffing them.In fact,Osa is one of five cancer-detection dogs trained by Annmarie DeAngelo and her co-workers at the university’s Penn Vet Working Dog Center. The most important goal is to develop an “electronic sniffer” that can approach the cancer-sniffing superpowers of Osa and her partners. Osa arrived at the Penn Vet Working Dog Center from a breeder at two months of age. Ever since, she has taken training. The process is demanding,challenging and repeated until the dog has mastered the most essential task of all. Finally, she has succeeded in sniffing out cancer. To transform Osa’s remarkable abilities into an electronic nose, researchers use a similar approach to train the machine.An electronic nose prototype(雏形)has been built, and it’s successful in sniffing out cancer 90 to 95 per cent of the time. That team has also correctly detected different types of cancer, and is building a cancer-detecting device for the National Institutes of Health. One objective is to be able to distinguish between early-and late-stage cancer.“It would be incredible to identify people at an early stage and really have an impact on saving lives,”says a researcher.“The dogs have been able to detect that. With that ability, a blood test could besent to a central lab, or ideally performed in a doctor’s office, making some hidden cancers a thing of the past. We expect that the cancer-sniffer device will be complete in a short time.”8．What can we learn about Osa from the first two paragraphs?A．She used to be a strong German dog.B．She was hard to deal with in the research.C．She uses her nose to know the presence of cancer.D．She can change the development of the oncology.9．Which word can best describe the training Osa received?A．Strict.B．Complex.C．Unstable.D．Endless. 10．What can we infer from the researcher’s words in the last paragraph?A．Blood tests will be more difficult in the future.B．There will be more dogs used for detecting cancer.C．Distinguishing cancers is important in early experiments.D．Hidden cancers may be detected by an electronic nose soon.11．What is the most suitable title for the text?A．The Results of a Study on Special DogsB．The Importance of Dogs in Detecting CancersC．The Approaches to Distinguishing CancersD．The Problem of Having a Cancer Blood TestGrowing up as kids we are told to share our toys and not to be selfish. We also live in an age when discussing our feelings is encouraged. But when does it all become too much? With new crazes trending all the time, such as dance challenges and wearing a carpet as a dress, the question is: when can sharing become oversharing on social media?“Oversharing” has become associated with social media, but it isn't exclusive to this platform. Imagine you head to a party and meet x k w someone. Within five minutes they have revealed private details about their life. While some of us may try to escape these people, according to marriage advisor Carolyn Cole, this form of oversharing could come from a strong desire to connect with someone. But how does this translate to social media?Dr. Christopher Hand, a lecturer in cyberpsychology (网络心理学），says the more details people disclose, the less sympathy we express when things go wrong. It seems that searching for sympathy by oversharing is generally considered as negative rather than the cryfor help it could really be.However, Dr. Hand's research also seems to suggest that the more we post on a platform, the more socially attractive we become-provided that the posts that we bang out are positive. Even back in 2015, Gwendolyn Seidman PhD said that we should avoid complaining and being negative online. We should also avoid showing off, especially about our love lives. It makes sense-if your date is going “that well", would you really have time to share a photo with text?So, how can you know if you are oversharing? Well, why not ask your friends in real life. They would probably be happy to tell you if your posts about your breakfast or your complaints about your lack of money really are too much.12．What does the underlined word “exclusive" in paragraph 2 mean?A．Unique.B．Similar.C．Relevant.D．Fundamental.13．Why do some people prefer oversharing at parties?A．To draw others' attention.B．To satisfy others' curiosity.C．To remove negative feelings.D．To develop good relationships.14．Which of the following may Dr. Hand agree with?A．Sharing more details online can attract more sympathy.B．Oversharing negative experiences is equal to crying for help.C．Sharing negative posts can't help one become socially attractive.D．Oversharing isn't likely to happen online when things go wrong.15．According to the text, what should be avoided for online sharing?A．Reflecting on past bad manners.B．Showing a great many expensive goods.C．Writing a recipe for a balanced breakfast.D．Recording unforgettable moments with friends.二、七选五We all have projects that need to be finished. 16Believe it or not, the location in which you plan your project plays an important role. A crowded place means distractions (分心) which certainly means that you will miss out important things which should have been included in the plan. That’s why I urge you to sit down and make this plan in a location where you can focus. 17 If you for some reason cannot, there are other locations available such as the library, your work office and so on.Do you know well about the actual purpose of the project? It’s not uncommon that people forget to outline the exact purpose of the project in explicit terms.18 If the purpose isn’t well explained, it could lead to some confusions in the future as well as loss of time and money. Make sure you get it right in the beginning!19 You may choose one of the two ways to start your project plan, either building everything from the bottom up or starting from the top and going down. The former case is usually the more difficult way to start; it would require you to know all the details of the project before you start the plan. The latter is usually the better way to start. 20 Once you’ve done this, you can look at each individual entry and try to specify the details concerning it.A．Where do you start?B．Now let’s talk about how to carry out your project plan.C．It will help you start with a general overview of the project.D．If you can find such a place in your home, that would be perfect.E．It is certainly true that not having a purpose will result in failure.F．To successfully carry out a project, we need to make a project plan.G．Make sure it’s understandable by all parties involved including yourself.三、完形填空All of us can give others a hand as long as we are willing to do so. Actually, there are some people doing kind things all the time. Spreading kindness, one good deed at a time, isgoing on in the world; I mean every day,” said Karla.Karla had the commitment(承诺)and a sense of 22 in December of 2013. Thesingle mother of three kids said she tended to feel down around the holidays, so she 23 to do something to cheer others up. She started a Facebook page and 24 her good deeds each day, from feeding the homeless to giving Easter gifts to prisoners. She hoped to 25 others.“We have to do something. Our 26 can make a difference in someone’s day. You never know when someone might be having their worst day, something like buying them a coffee can change their whole attitude,” Karla 27 .Karla’s greatest 28 so far had much to do with coffee. On September 27th, Karla’s birthday, she went to the local Starbucks and gave the cashier $127 to pay for other people’s drinks. She sat at the end of the drive-through holding a 29 that read, “Have a great day.” She ended up 30 23 customers. “It was really fun. It was probably one of the best birthdays ever,” she said. Her kindness that day didn’t go 31 . One couple were so grateful that they surprised her with flowers and balloons to show their appreciation.Karla’s acts of kindness have become a 32 affair. Her two sons are always helping others. “Sometimes I’ll ask Kyle, ‘So, did you do anything extra nice today?’ and his answers are like ‘Somebody 33 something in the hallway and I picked it up’ or ‘I held the door for someone’, that kind of thing,” said Karla.It’s because of Mom that the boys think it’s 34 to give a hand to others. “I think it’s a great idea of hers. It’s always nice to help someone out 35 they really need it,” said Karla’s 15-year-old son Chad.21．A．good B．bad C．new D．old 22．A．duty B．loss C．confidence D．relief 23．A．managed B．agreed C．hesitated D．decided 24．A．did B．mentioned C．shared D．missed 25．A．greet B．inspire C．introduce D．remember 26．A．kindness B．happiness C．loneliness D．sadness 27．A．whispered B．explained C．reported D．replied 28．A．interest B．challenge C．concern D．moment 29．A．mark B．sign C．symbol D．flag 30．A．paying for B．picking up C．paying off D．picking out 31．A．unfinished B．unnoticed C．unorganized D．unquestioned 32．A．society B．love C．holiday D．family33．A．dropped B．bought C．found D．fell 34．A．strange B．lucky C．cool D．fumy 35．A．after B．though C．unless D．when四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

It seems like a new one is released every week. However, once upon a time, there weren't any superhero films. All that changed with the release of the first Superman movie in December, 1978.The first Superman comic book came out in 1938, and it changed the comic industry. Before Superman, nobody wore a cape (披肩) and nobody had a big logo on their chest. He wasn't the first superhero, but he started the so-called "Golden Age of Comic Books" and his look became the archetype (原型) of all superheroes.Why did people take to Superman? One of the keys is "wish-fulfillment", his creator Jerry Siegel told CurtainUp. com. Indeed, Superman reflects many of the values and characteristics that people admire.Superman lives as Clark Kent, a news reporter. However, he can become the superhero whenever he needs to. He can fly, lift any object, see through walls and melt steel with his eyes. He is selfless. He chooses to help the people of the Earth by fighting injustices against them.Over the years, Superman has had different types of enemies and situations, usually related to the problems people faced. When there was a lot of organized crime in cities in the 1930s, Superman fought bad people. When young men went off to fight Nazi Germany, Superman's motto became "truth and justice". And after World War II (1939-1945), when African-Americans were terrorized by violent hate groups, Superman fought against racism.Today, Superman enjoys global popularity. We all work or study and care about our families and friends. We see problems that we can't change. Through all of these, we struggle to do our best and also to find personal happiness. Superman is the guy we wish we could be. He can save the world and still get Clark Kent to work on time.4. Why do people like superman?A．The image of superman is cool.B．It has always been a cultural tradition.C．Superman is popularized by news reporters.D．People wish to be powerful enough to solve hard problems.5. What can we infer from paragraph 5?A．Superman's mission changes with times.B．Superman's archetype is a news reporter.C．Superman has the power to solve all problems.D．Superman went to Germany to fight Nazi in World War II.6. What does the underlined word “these” in the last paragraph refer to?A．Superman's heroic deeds.B．Superman's extraordinary abilities.C．What happens in people's daily life.D．What people see in superhero movies.7. Which of the following does the author support?A．Superheroes do exist in our life.B．All problems in society should be solved.C．People find themselves expressed through Superman.D．Superhero movies need promotion to be more popular.A human heart is so much more than an organ. No one says they left their pancreas (胰腺) in San Francisco, for example, or that two kidneys (肾脏) beat as one. Yet most of us believe that two hearts can beat as one, and that the heart reveals our real emotion s. Now there’s some evidence that such folk wisdom is true.When people listen to the same story — each alone in their own home — their heart rates rise and fall together, according to a new study published last month in Cell Reports. Professor Lucas Perra, a senior author of the study, said, “It’s the story that drives the heart.”This finding corresponds with a mountain of research showing that our brains synchronize (同步) when we interact in the same location or participate in the same activity. The new study goes one step further; it tests whether our heart rates become synchronized while taking in the same narrative —even though we’re not in the same room nor even listening at the same time as other listeners. Marcel Proust wrote at the turn of the 20th century, “the heart does not lie.” Data tells us much the same: The heart’s connection to the brain is so tight that when we hear the same story, our heart rates synchronize. Subjects in the same group produced synchronized heart rate patterns that rose and fell at roughly the same times during the narrative.The results are“heartwarming,”said Prof.Perra.“Heart rate correlation (关联) between subjects does not require them to actually be interacting, or even be in the same place. It’s not the interactionbet ween people but the story itself that does the trick.”The point, he said, is that when we listen to the same radio program or watch a Netflix show, our hearts beat together, showing that “we’re not alone.”8. What does the underlined expression “folk wisdom”refer to in the first paragraph?A．Kidneys beat like hearts. B．Hearts are important organs.C．A human heart conveys feelings. D．Organs have close links with emotions.9. What can we learn from the new study in Cell Reports?A．People like listening to the same story in separate places.B．Human’s brains synchronize when driven by different stories.C．People tested in the same group have the same heart rates.D．The same story can make listeners have the same heart rates.10. What’s the author’s purpose of writing this article?A．To report a research finding. B．To argue against an opinion.C．To tell readers a moving story. D．To call for immediate action.11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A．The Way Human Hearts Work B．The Same Story, the Same HeartbeatC．The Heart’s Connection to Brain D．The Importance of Heart RatesGetting a high grade in an exam depends partly on how much you can remember. So, improving memory is essential to success in studying. But is there anything that we can do about it? One solution might be walking backwards.According to a new study published in the Journal of Cognition, walking backwards, whether doing it really or just imagining it, can boost (增强) the brainpower in the short term.In the study, 114 volunteers were asked to watch a video in which a woman had her bag stolen. Then they answered 20 questions about the details shown in the video. Ten minutes after watching the video, the volunteers were divided into three groups. The first two groups were told to move forwards or backwards 10 meters while the third group was asked to stay still on the same point. The researchers found that the backwards-walking group got two more correct answers on average than the other two groups. This suggests that a relationship between the concepts (概念) of time and space is essential to the way our minds form memories.When we walk backwards, everything we learn becomes strange to us. "This forces the brain to think in a different way—it's a rewiring and changes the focus," US neuropsychologist (神经心理学家) Christine Weber told Forbes. It almost always means that our brain needs to be more active and alert in the limited time. Naturally, our short-term memory will be improved significantly.Apart from improving our memory, walking backwards also plays an important role in physical health, especially fitness. A study published in Journal of Biomechanics in 2012 found that backward walking puts less strain and requires a smaller range of movements from the knee joints (膝关节). Thus, there's less pressure and pain in the knees.In addition, walking backwards, compared to forward walking, is more challenging. It requires you to use muscles and movements that you probably rarely use, making it a perfect way to change your exercise routine for greater fitness gains. Meanwhile, by making people put in extra effort, it naturally burns more fat and calories.12. Which group of people perform best in the memory test?A．The staying-still group. B．The forwards-walking group.C．The imaginary-walking group. D．The backwards-walking group.13. In what way does walking backwards benefit people's health?A．It can make people slim. B．It can reduce peopled stress.C．It can strengthen people's joints. D．It can make people more energetic.14. What do we know about backward walking?A．It follows our exercise routine.B．It limits people's thinking time.C．It directs our focus to important details.D．It makes people's brain more active and alert.15. What's the writer's purpose in writing paragraph 4?A．To add another aspect of the topic.B．To support the result of the research.C．To sum up the main idea of the passage.D．To provide some background information.Four Ideas for Better SleepMost teens need 8 to 10 hours of sleep each night. But many teens have trouble sleeping. Lack of sleep can affect everything from our emotions to how well we focus on tasks like driving. 16 And it may be linked to weight gain in some people. How can we get the sleep we need? Here are some ideas:Be active during the day.You've probably noticed how much running around little kids do — and how soundly they sleep. 17Physical activity can decrease stress and help people feel more relaxed. Just don't work out too closeto bedtime because exercise can wake you up before it slows you down.Say goodnight to your telephone or TV.18 If you can't make your bedroom a tech-free area, at least shut everything down an hour or more before lights out. Nothing says, "Wake up, something's going on!" like the noise of a text of a phone. Keep a sleep routine (规律).19 Creating a set bedtime routine can improve this relaxation effect. So relax yourself every night by reading, listening to music, spending time with a pet, writing in a journal, or doing anything else that relaxes you.20Stress can cause sleeplessness, so the more you suffer from not sleeping, the greater the risk you'll lie awake staring at the ceiling.
