Researchers in Singapore found that eating mushrooms over twice per week could help prevent memory and language problems later in life.
According to the study, published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease, there is a unique antioxidant (抗氧化物质) present in mushrooms that helps protect certain brain functions.
Researchers observed 663 Chinese adults aged over 60 whose diets and lifestyles were tracked from 2011 to 2017. In the study, the participants were asked how often they ate six different types of mushrooms: oyster, shiitake, white button, dried, golden and tinned. The findings showed that eating more than two shares of mushrooms per week somehow lowered the chances of mild cognitive impairment (MCi) by 50% against those who ate fewer than one share.
MCI is a condition that can make people forgetful, affect their memory and cause problems with language, attention and finding the exact position of objects in space. Changes in behavior can be not very noticeable and not serious enough to be known as dementia (痴呆).
Participants who ate more mushrooms were found to perform better in thinking and processing exams and also exhibited a faster processing speed. The advantage was reportedly more apparent in those who ate more than two shares a week or more than 300 grams.
The scientists pointed out, however, that they have yet to put up a direct link between the fungi and brain function.
The researchers also acknowledged that since this study mainly relied on self-reported information on mushroom intake
and other dietary factors (因素), further studies may be required.
Still, the lead study author Lei Feng is encouraged by their findings.
“This correlation is surprising and encouraging,” Lei said.
Mushrooms are one of the richest dietary sources of ergothioneine — a matter which humans c an’t make on our own.
24.What are the findings in paragraph 3 about?
A. Diets and lifestyles.
B. The percent of MCI.
C. The types of mushrooms.
D. The benefit of eating mushrooms.
25.What can we know about MCI?
A It can strengthen memory. B. It can result in language problems.
C. It can make people get lost.
D. It can lessen the chance of forgetfulness.
26.What is the result if students often eat more mushrooms?
A.They will take the exams much more easily
B.Their academic performance improves greatly
C.Their thinking ability is better than the majority
D.They will love communicating with others.
27.Where does the text most probably appear?
A. Scientific fiction.
B. An advertisement.
C. A science report.
D. Adult literature.

Space Hotel Promises Guests A Truly Out — Of — This — World Vacation Looking for a true out — of — this — world vacation? Then you are in luck! On Thursday, April 5, Texas- based start-up Orion Span announced they were taking reservations for Aurora （极光）Station, the world's first luxury(奢侈的）hotel in space, which is expected to launch in 2021 and begin welcoming visitors by 2022.
The pill-shaped space station, which begins construction in 2019, will measure 43. 5 feet long and 14. 1 feet wide —about the size of a large private jet's cabin — when completed. It will accommodate four guests in two private suites and two crew members, most likely former astronauts. Hovering about 200 miles above Earth, Aurora Station will circle the planet once every 90 minutes, enabling guests to enjoy 16 spectacular sunrises and sunsets daily, as well as scores of the breathtaking northern and southern auroras that the hotel is named after.
While admiring the beauty of our planet, tourists can eat non-astronaut food and drinks or entertain themselves with playing cards. Those hoping to do something more worthwhile will be able to engage in astronaut-like experiments such as
growing food in a special environment. The Wi-Fi enabled spacecraft will make it easy for guests to share their experiences
with friends and family members on Earth. At the end of the week and half-long vacation, returning guests will be treated to a special “hero's welcome", similar to the one experienced by astronauts returning from a real mission.
Before the once — in — a — lifetime trip, guests will have to undergo the three-month-long special training learning how to move in a weightless environment, along with the basics of spaceflight and orbital mechanics. Also, before you start packing your bags, you will have to pay $9.5 million for the 12-day round-trip vacation.
While several companies are planning to build hotels in space, Orion Span hopes to transform sections of used rockets floating in space into hotel rooms, instead of crowding the already messy skies with additional man-made objects.
28.What can be learnt about Aurora Station?
A. People can visit it now.
B. It's construction will last for about 5 years.
C. It can only hold four people in this station.
D. It looks like a pill with the size of a small plane.
29.Why is the station named Aurora Station?
A.Because guests can enjoy spectacular auroras of the Earth.
B.Because the station will give off auroras while travelling.
C.Because the station will run around the auroras of the Earth.
D.Because the hotel is lit up by the auroras of the Earth.
30.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.There is little room for people to live on the earth.
B.Too many space crafts have aroused people's concern.
C.Space hotels will be necessary in the near future.
ed rockets floating in space are easy to be recycled.
第二节（共5个小题；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。

选项中有一项为多余选项。

Regardless of whether English is your first language, you won't make a good impression if you can't write well. 31 To improve your written English, learn the rules for correct grammar and punctuation and thoroughly proofread your written work. A large vocabulary will also help your writing stand out. Above all, be willing to practice every day and put in the work to build strong English writing skills.
Expand Your Vocabulary
You’d better read books written in English. Books and magazines can introduce you to new words, provided you pay attention to the words and look up the ones you don't know rather than skipping over them. 32 Read the whole definition for the word, and think about how the author is using it in context. You may consider doing crossword puzzles to practice vocabulary. Crossword puzzles give you an opportunity to learn new words, as well as recall words you've learned and think about different contexts and meanings of words you already know.
33
To improve grammar, you should never ignore the importance of reading out your writing loud. Grammar and punctuation errors stand out when you read your writing out. As you read, pay attention to where you pause and make sure your punctuation reflects those pauses. Read the whole piece from beginning to end, looking at how the sentences flow together. You’d better also spend much time studying word usage to get the hang of grammar and punctuation. There are many websites that have free grammar and word usage lessons, tips, and exercises. 34
Develop Good Writing Habits
Use a conversational writing style. The most readable writing is that written in the way people talk. So Keep your sentence structure simple, and use mostly common, ordinary words that most people know. And remember to outline longer or more complex pieces. If you're writing something longer than a paragraph, or if you need to make several different points, an outline will help you organize your thoughts. 35 That is because you won't be worried about forgetting something. Lastly, read over everything you write, even something as short as a text message. Over time, you'll notice an improvement in your first drafts.
A.Improve Grammar and Punctuation.
B.Read your own writing out aloud.
C.It will also make your writing flow more easily.
D.Keep a dictionary nearby when you're reading, and look up any word you don't know.
E.Talking to actual native speakers is the most effective way to improve your English skills.
F.You can use these to learn new skills and practice incorporating them into your writing.
G.People may assume you are uneducated, careless, or have a poor work ethic.

Later,Rigo had to sit by himself for a while.His teacher wanted him to practice being quiet.Rigo had to sit quietly for five minutes.It felt like five hours or five days.When the five minutes were up,Rigo went to his desk and sat quietly.It was not easy.
After school,Rigo was waiting for his father.He saw Chris again.“Hey!” he yelled.“Chris! Hey!”The headmaster was walking by.Rigo was sure he was going to get in trouble for his loud voice.He looked quickly at the ground.Maybe the headmaster would keep walking.

Hi Jack,
Learning that you will come to our school to study as an exchange student, I’m more than delighted. Last
time you mentioned that you show interest in traditional Chinese painting. I’d like to give you some suggestions, which I think are helpful and practical.
It has occurred to me that my school will offer an optional course on learning to paint in a traditional Chinese style. The class will be scheduled every Friday from 12: 00 pm to 2: 00 pm in Room 211 at the new Yifu building.
If you are interested, please remember to register. When you arrive, I can take you to buy the appropriate tools such as Chinese brush, ink, and paper. Please let me know, and see you soon!

The headmaster stopped and looked at Rigo.Rigo was looking at the ground.“That is some voice you have,” said the headmaster.Rigo did not say anything.He was waiting for the trouble that was sure to come.“You should be an actor with that voice,” said the headmaster.“You would be great on the stage.Everyone would be able to hear you.Even the people who sat in the very back.”“An actor? I could be an actor?”said Rigo in surprise.The idea sounded very good to him.“Oh,yes,” said the headmaster.“Actors have to use very loud voices when they are on stage.But you know,when they are not on stage,they only use very quiet voices.They save their loud voice for the stage.” Just at that moment,Rigo saw his father.
He said goodbye to the headmaster and ran to get in his father’s car cheerfully.When his father said hello,Rigo said hello,too.He used such a quiet voice that his father had to ask him to say it again.Rigo told his father that the headmaster had told him to be an actor,because he thought he had such talents of being an actor.His father felt very surprised at the headmaster’s comments.But in his heart,he was a bit happy for his son’s loud voice.。
