AThe Gloria Barron Prize honors American young people from 8 to l8 who have shown leadership and courage in public service.Each year ten winners each receive$2,000 to support their higher education or their service work.Ellie Wen,18,was volunteering at a munity center in Los Angeles.The center was set up to help immigrant families.She happened to meet adults in an EFL(English as a foreign language)class.“When I saw them struggling hard,I wondered how people in poor countries could learn English,”Ellie said.So she started a Website,“Repeat After Us”,where people can listen to English and practice their accents.Volunteers have helped Ellie record more than 6,600 texts,including Abraham Lincoln’s“Gettysburg Address”. Hard work pays off.There were so many times that Ellie was discouraged,but she stuck to it.The Website crashed early on,and all the recordingswere lost.But volunteers worked together vigorously to start over,and the visitors returned to the site.“Just follow your idea and know that the world is so kind.Even if you do have trouble,people will help you,”Ellie said.“I was really excited the first month,when we had 49 visitors,”sh e said.Now,more than 480,000 people from a11 over the world have visited the site.“I get e-mails from China,Egypt,India,and Brazil.”They say,“Thank you so much for this resource,we’ve been waiting for it for so long!”Ellie loves knowing she is helping so m any people.Gloria Barron Prize winners like Ellie are enthusiastic about the work they do.And they encourage others to join in if they see a need.Anybody can be negative,but it needs somebody brave to be positive.Are you the brave one?【文章综述】文章介绍了Ellie wen的经历。

AArtificial intelligence,or AI,has been applied in a wide range of fields to perform specific tasks,including education, finance, heavy industry, transportation, and so on.EducationThere are a number of companies that create robots to teach subjects to children ranging from biology to computer science,though such tools have not become widespread yet.Advancements in natural language processing,combined with machine learning,have also enabled automatic grading of assignments.AI has also led to an explosion in popularity of MOOCs,or Massive Open Online Courses,which allows students from around the world to take classes online.FinanceUse of AI in banking can be tracked back to 1987.Banks use artificial intelligence systems to organize operations,maintain book-keeping,invest instocks,and manage properties.Also,systems are being developed,like Atria,to translate complex data into simple and personable language.There are also wallets,like Wallet AI,which monitor an individual’s spending habits and provides ways to improve them.Heavy industryRobots have become common in many industries and are often given jobs that are considered dangerous to humans.Robots have proven effective in jobs that are very repetitive which may lead to mistakes or accidents due to failure in concentration and other jobs which humans may find degrading.TransportationToday’S cars can have AI-based driver assist features such as self-parking and advanced cruise controls.AI in transportation is expected to provide safe,efficient,and reliable transportation while minimizing the impact on the environment and communities.Toys and gamesCompanies like Mattel have been creating AI-enabled toys for kids as young as age three.Using proprietary AI engines and speech recognition tools,they are able to understand conversations,give intelligent responses and learn quickly.AI has also been applied to video games,for example video game bots,which are designed to stand in as opponents where humans aren’t available or desired.1. Which is true about AI and education?A. Robots have been widely used to teach children.B. AI has been used to grade students’homework.C. AI has enabled more students to receive education at school.D. Education was the first field where A1 was used.2. Which can be inferred from the passage?A. Atria can help people understand complex data.B. Wallet AI can help people make more money.C.

July is also whenNorway's weather is at its warmest, about18℃, so travelers might include a light sweater in their luggage.Bastille Day inParisJuly 14 is a national day celebrating independence to the French. July 14, 1789, is the day the French stormed the Bastille, aParisprison, and officially began the French Revolution, overthrowing a royal government that often threw people in prison there for no reason at all. While the day is marked all overFrance, the biggest celebration takes place inParis.Masai Mara National ReserveThe thrill of seeing millions of animals wander the plains inKenyais not easily forgotten. One of the most popular months to visit the Masai Mara is in July when the famous wildlife migration reaches the Masai Mara and zebras are at their highest number. The best times to view the animals inKenya's most popular game park are dawn and dusk.Running of the Bulls inPamplonaTravelers who pride themselves on being fast runners may want to head toPamplonain July for the San Femin Festival. A key part of this annual festival is the running of the bulls. Six bulls are released onto a narrow street fora half-mile run, with hundreds of runners seeing if they can run faster than the animals.1. What can visitors do inNorway's in July?A.

However, rain isn’t just made of water anymore—it’s partly made of plastic.Millions of tiny pieces of plastic, called microplastics, are wandering around Earth’s atmosphere and traveling across entire continents according to a study published in one journal on April 12.Microplastics are plastic particles less than 5 millimeters in diameter and come from a number of sources. Plastic bags and bottles released into the environment break down into smaller and smaller bits. Some microplastics are produced deliberately to provide abrasion(研磨)in products, such as toothpaste and cleansers. Another major source is your washing machine. When you wash clothing, tiny microfibers get washed away with the wastewater. Even though the water is treated by a wastewater plant, the microplastics remain,and they are released into the sea.Plastic rain may remind people of acid rain, but the former is far more widespread and harder to deal with. The tiny particles, too small to be seen with the naked eye, are collected by the wind from the ground. They are so light that they stay in the air to be blown around the globe. As they climb into the atmosphere, they are thought to act as nuclei (核心) around which water vapor (水蒸气) combines to form clouds. Some of the dust falls back to land in dry conditions, while the rest comes down as rain.Microplastics have been found everywhere you can imagine. From fish and frogs to mice and mosquitoes, their bodies have been found on average to contain 40 pieces of microplastic. As the top of the food chain, humans are exposed to microplastics, too. “We live on a ball inside a bubble,” microplastic researcher Steve Allen said. “There are no borders, there are no edges. It rains on the land and then gets blown back up into the air again to move somewhere else. There’s no stopping it once it’s out.”4. What do we know about microplastics?A. They have a diameter of over 5 millimeters.B. They have become a threat to humans.C. They are light and can be easily dealt with.D. They cause acid rain and plastic rain.5. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A. Waysto deal with microplastics.B. The wide use of microplastics.C. Where microplastics come from.D. How microplastics pollute water.6. What does Steve Allen want to tell us in the last paragraph?A. No place can be safe from microplastic pollution.B. The atmosphere possesses the ability to self-cleanse.C. Countries should work together to fight pollution.D. Wind causes microplastics to move somewhere else.7. The main purpose of the article is to________.A. call on people to use fewer plastic productsB. warn people of the danger of microplasticsC. introduce the sources and effects of microplasticsD. make a comparison between acid rain and plastic rainCScientists have discovered a new behaviour among bumblebees that tricks plants into flowering early.When lack of pollen, bumblebees will bite little by little on the leaves of flower-less plants. The damage seems to fool the plant into flowering, sometimes up to 30 days earlier than normal.With their hairy appearance and special sounds, bumblebees are hard to miss in gardens all over the world. Their hairy bodies make them excellent pollinators for crops like tomatoes and blueberries. They are among the first bees to appear each year and work a long season.But despite their key role, bumblebees, like many other pollinators have seen their numbers decline suddenly in recent decades. One recent study pointed to climate change, reporting that an increasing number of hot days in Europe andNorth Americawas raising local bumblebees extinction rates.But researchers have now made a discovery about bumblebees that could have something to do with their long term survival. Scientists inSwitzerlandfound that when the bumblebees were out of pollen, they started to bite on the leaves of plants that hadn't yet flowered. They used their mouths to cut clearly-shaped holes in the leaves. But the creatures didn't eat the material or use it in their nests.The damaged plants responded by flowering earlier than normal--in some cases up to 30 days ahead of schedule. Researchers also found that the bee damaged plants flowered 30 days earlier than undamaged plants and 25 days earlier than ones damaged by the scientists.“I think everything that we've found is consistent with the idea that the bumblebees are damaging the plantsand that that's an adaptation that brings flowers earlier and that benefits the bees,” said Dr Mark Mescher, one of the authors from ETHZurich.8. How do bumblebees fool plants into flowering earlier?A. By making use of the hot weather.B. By putting the false flowers on the leaves.C. By attacking the leaves of flowerless plants.D. By taking away the pollen from the other flowers.9. What's bumblebees’ key role?A.Making plants flower early.B. Spreading pollen to flowers and plants.C. Sending information about weather change.D. Finding out whether the plant has flowers.10. What has happened to bumblebees in the past the years?A. They are becoming homesick.B. They are not as friendly as before.C. There is a sharp decrease in number.D. They have been busy year by year.11. What's Dr Mark Mescher's attitude towards the behaviour of bumblebees?A. Uncaring.B. Skeptical.C. Tolerant.D. Objective.DA Hug from a Teenage BoyFifteen years spent in the field of education have provided Nancy Marra with many treasured moments. One of the most endearing happened when she was teaching second grade.That year, she decided to plan something special for the children: a Mother’s Day tea. After all the preparations were made for it, each child took home an invitation.Nancywas surprised and relieved to see that every mother was planning to attend. She even invited her own mother.Finally, the day arrived. That afternoon, each child lined up at the classroom door expecting the arrival of his or her mom. As it got closer to starting time,Nancylooked around and her eyes quickly found Jimmy. His mother hadn’t shown up and he was looking upset.Nancytook her mother by the hand and walked over to Jimmy. “Jimmy,”Nancysaid, “I have a bit of a problem here and I was wondering if you could help out. Since I’m going to be really busy today, I was wondering if you could keep my mother company.”Nancy’s mom and Jimmy sat at a table with two other mother-child pairs. Jimmy servedNancy’s mom her treats, presented her with the giftNancyhad made, and pulled out and pushed in her chair, just as they had practiced the day before. WheneverNancylooked over, her mom and Jimmy were in deep conversation Ten years later,Nancywas at a high school to take a senior class on a field trip, and there was Jimmy. On theway back,Nancyhad the students complete an evaluation form of their trip. She collected and checked the forms one by one.When she came to Jimmy’s evaluation page, he had written, “Remember our Mother’s Day tea we had in second grade, Mrs. Marra? I do! Thanks for all you did for me, and thank your mother, too.”As they began unloading at the school, Jimmy made sure he was the last one to go.Nancytold him she really enjoyed what he had written. He looked rather embarrassed, mumbled (咕哝) his own thanks, and then turned to walk away. As the bus driverbegan pulling the bus away, Jimmy ran back and knocked on the bus door. He jumped back on board and gaveNancya big hug. “Thanks again, Mrs. Marra. No one even knew my mom didn’t make it that day!”She ended her workday with a hug from a teenage boy who had probably stopped hugging teachers years ago.12. Why was Jimmy paired withNancy’s mother?A. Nancy was too busy to spend time with her.B. Jimmy’s mother didn’t come to the event.C. Nancy wanted Jimmy to get to know her.D. Jimmy could get along well with her.13. Where did Jimmy meetNancyten years later?A. Near Jimmy’s high school.B. At a Mother’s Day tea.C. In Nancy’s classroom.D. On a field trip.14. How did Jimmy feel about whatNancyhad done for him?A. Upset.B. Embarrassed.C. Grateful.D. Satisfied.15. Which of the following best presents the theme of the passage?A. No act of kindness is ever wasted.B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.C. A mother’s hug lasts long after she lets go.D. The best teacher must be the best performer.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

"I didn't know at that point if I could sail with one hand," he says. "But at the back of my mind I had always thought I could do anything if I put my mind to it." Within a year,White had taken on the challenge of being the first one-armed sailor to circumnavigate(环航)the British Isles.Then he crossed the Atlantic alone in st year he became the first sailor with a disability to circumnavigate the globe.Sailing single-handed for weeks requires mental,as well as physical,strength,especially when you are alone.So how does he do it?It's a question that makes the yachtsman(帆船运动员)laugh. "When you have seven children it's lovely to have little time on your own!It's awesome," he jokes. "I do a log every hour,and my diary,and I read a few books.I have very little sleep." "I'm a sociable person:I do like lots of people around.Answering emails and chatting over Facebook can help stop any loneliness." he adds.When White made his first Atlantic crossing,he was disappointed to have his peace and quiet broken by his arrival on land.But,he says,he threw himself into meeting new people.In betweenadventures,he likes sailing with people who haven't tried it before or get involved in yacht races with friends.Perhaps the main reason for his success in adjusting to life after a big adventure,he says,is that he always has an idea for a new one in his back pocket. "It keeps me tickingover-there's always something new to do.I just like challenges and one leads to another."4.Why couldn't White continue his passion for diving?______A. He lost his left arm.B. His license was due.C. He had a new hobby.D. His memory was poor.5.How did White spend his time at sea?______A. By staying awake.B. By visiting old friends.C. By keeping himself busy.D. By attending his children.6.What mainly leads to White's successful adjustment to life after a big adventure?______A. Socializing with new people.B. Scheduling new adventures.C. Coaching new yachtsmen.D. Organizing yacht races.7.Which of the following best describes Keith White?______A. Creative.B. Humorous.C. Easy-going.D. Adventurous. (2021·江苏省·模拟题)CAn afternoon nap(午睡)is one of the joys of life,although too much napping could signal all is not well.In some cultures people will have a daily nap-this is fine.The warning comes when people start sleeping during the daytime,when they did not before.There is certainly a good reason to believe that daytime sleepiness-as in the Alzheimer's study-can be a marker of an underlying condition.For most people,napping during the day is mainly a sign that you are not getting enough sleep at night,says Dr Neil Stanley a sleep expert. "If you feel sleepy during the day,you should think about taking a nap.That is what the body needs-it doesn't need to be kept awake with caffeine,it needs sleep." The feeling to notice is "sleepiness",he says,not "tiredness",which could be more psychological and linked to stress.So how do you nap well?The key thing,says Stanley,is how long your nap lasts.Choose either a 20-or 90-minute nap. "When you fall asleep,you'll quickly go through the lighter stages of sleep into your first period of deep sleep.You don't want to wake up in deep sleep because that's when you wake and feel worse than you did before." Napping for 20 minutes means you willwake up before you go into deep sleep;napping for 90 minutes means you'll complete sleep cycle.Once you factor in the time it takes to fall asleep-some people are better at napping than others but,says Stanley,"a healthy adult will fall asleep in between 5 and 12 minutes"-you can set an alarm,allowing a 30-to 40-minute period for a short nap,and up to two hours for a longer one.A good time to nap is during the body's natural dip in the afternoon,between 2 pm and 4 pm. "You don't really want to be napping much past that because then you are going to be eating into your night-time sleep," Stanley says.The point,he stresses,is to get good night-time sleep,which would ensure you probably don't need to nap at all.8.What does an afternoon nap indicate for most people?______A. Caffeine addiction.B. Psychological stress.C. Insufficient night sleep.D. Potential physical illness.9.What is the key to a good nap?______A. Duration.B. Surroundings.C. Health.D. Stages.10.What does the underlined word "that" in the last paragraph refer to?______A. A 30-to 40-minute period.B. Between 2 pm and 4 pm.C. Between 5 and 12 minutes.D. A 20-to 90-minute period.11.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?______A. Why to phase a napB. When to take a good napC. What to learn from a napD. How to have a successful nap (2021·江苏省·模拟题)DThere is more that comes with older age than greying hair and wrinkled skin.When humans reach their later years,they favour more established friends and their social circle is reduced. Now,for what appears to be the first time,scientists have seen the same behaviour in another species.Twenty years of observations of chimpanzees(猩猩)reveal that older males choose to hang out with their long-term friends at the expense of other relationships.The researchers studied 78,000 hours of observations made between 1996 and 2016 that followed the social interactions of 21 male chimpanzees between the ages of 15 and 58 years old.They classified the chimps' relationships depending on the amount of time they sat with others and groomed(梳毛)them.They then rated the various pairings as mutual(相互的)friendships,where both chimps seemed to enjoy the relationship;one-sided friendships,whereone chimp was more keen to be friends than the other,and non-friendships,where neither chimp showed interest in the other.When the scientists looked at the patterns of friendships,they found that the older chimps had more mutual friendships and fewer one-sided friendships than younger chimps.Another feature seen in older humans was also spotted in the chimps.As the males got older,their levels of aggression(挑衅)tailed off,meaning they started fewer fights and tended to intimidate others in their group less often.The observations have left the researchers puzzled.According to an idea in psychology known as socioemotional selectivity theory,or SST older humans prefer more positive relationships because they are aware time is running out.But many animal experts argue that chimpanzees lack the human sense of mortality(死亡),suggesting something else is driving the behaviour. Robin Dunbar,a professor of evolutionary psychology at the University of Oxford,said in humans.the decline in social circles with age is due to declining social motivation to get out and meet people combined by lack of opportunity.In chimpanzees,as older males compete less for mates,they may focus on close,reciprocal(互惠的)relationships with trusted partners,she said.12.What do older male chimpanzees favour?______A. Old friendships.B. New bonds.C. Greying hair.D. Wrinkled skin.13.How did the researchers draw their conclusion about chimpanzees?______A. By turning to other scientists.B. By introducing a new concept.C. By forming relationships with them.D. By analyzing two decades' observations.14.What does the underlined word "intimidate" in Paragraph 4 mean?______A. Threaten.B. Motivate.C. Defend.D. Accompany.15.According to Robin Dunbar,what accounts for declining social circles in chimpanzees?______A. Awareness of time.B. Less competition for mates.C. Low motivation for socialization.D. Lack of the human sense of mortality.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共12.5分)(2021·江苏省·模拟题)Most people know how to manage,express,and cope with emotions in a healthy way.(1)______ In fact,knowing how to regulate emotions is important for everyone.But what is emotion regulation,and how can you improve your emotion regulation skills?(2)______ Many researchers view emotion regulation as the ability to enhance or reduce your emotions as needed.Others define it as a set of skills that help keep your emotional system healthy and functioning.We can learn to adjust what emotion we have,how intense it is,when we have it,and how we react to it.The defining aspect of emotion regulation is that it occurs when a goal is activated.Goals are highly individual.They're what we picture in our heads.Your goals can be activated by your environment.You may regulate your emotions to influence a change in someone else.(3)______ For instance,when your boss treats you poorly at work,you act as if it doesn't bother you because you're hoping for a job promotion.Mindfulness is the practice of being present in the moment.Mindful people learn to be aware of the breaths they take,the tension in their muscles,and even their pulse rates.They can objectively observe themselves in difficult moments,confident that even these times will pass.(4)______In and of themselves,emotions are not good or bad,though they may be scary,especially when they're intense.(5)______ But the more you do it,the more natural it becomes.Mindfulness skills can help with this too.A.Learning how to accept your emotions takes practice.B.Being mindful can help you to deal with your emotions.C.There is no one agreed-upon definition of emotion regulation.D.Emotion regulation goals vary strongly from situation to situation.E.For some people,though,emotion regulation is much more difficult.F.Emotion regulation refers to the ability to control one's own emotions.G.Sometimes you may regulate your emotions to achieve another end goal.16.

Then I was a magazine editor-in-chief for five national consumer publications and also contributed to magazines like Longevity and New Woman.Four years after getting married in 2005,I eventually gave birth to my daughter, Crystal. As I wrote on :"As the doctor checked her vital organs and my husband counted her 10 perfect fingers and toes, I realized that my body had produced a wonder."While my peers were dealing with the stresses of kids in school, I focused my creative energy on carving out my new identity. I was excited when I was offered a "Mom's Talk" column where I wrote about toys,breastfeeding, and my ongoing(追求)for "baby-free" time. When Crystal was 3 years old, I wrote an essay about watching her dance at a toddler(学步的小孩)reading group at the library, instead of sitting down with the other children. I expected her performance to annoy people, but her joyful dancing attracted them and made me consider my own possibilities."Had I ever been that way, I wondered. If so, could I be like that again?Could I become as free as a child with her whole life ahead of her, ready and willing to be the star of her own production?"As my daughter transformed from a toddler into a young girl, she continued to be myinspiration. I wrote about the new rules for babysitting and shared research showing that fathers who participated in housework had a positive impact on their daughter's future success on The Washington Post.I focused on providing Crystal with resilience-building(韧性)when she neared her teens. I wrote about powerful phrases for The Week,like "no one is the judge of your self-worth".As my daughter continues to grow during this messy time,there is one certainty:I will continue to tell my stories,through the eyes of my midlife wisdom.

The electric roadster and its passenger were attached to the top of a Falcon Heavy rocket during the SpaceX rocket's first test launch on 6 February 2018.Two years later, the Falcon Heavy rocket and the vehicle at its tip are making their second trip around the Sun. Mr. McDowell, a Harvard astrophysicist, found that Starman passed 7.4million kilometers from Mars at 06:25 GMT 7 October, 2020.The closest recent approach between the Earth and Mars was 56 million kilometers in 2003,though the planets are often hundreds of millions of miles apart depending on where they are in their orbits. No one can see the Falcon Heavy rocket at its current distance, but orbits over periods of a few years are fairly straightforward to predict, and Mr. McDowell used data about how the rocket was moving when it left the Earth's gravity behind to locate its recent movements exactly.Last time Starman circled the Sun, McDowell said, it crossed Mars' orbit while the Red Planet was quite far away. But this time the crossing lined up with a fairly close approach, though still not close enough to feel a strong tugfrom Mars.At this point in time,if you were able to go look at the Roadster,it would probably look pretty different. The strong solar radiation environment between the planets would probably have destroyed all the exposed organic materials.Without the Earth's atmospheric and magnetic(磁场的)protection,even the plastics and carbon-fibre materials would start to break up. Over the course of decades or centuries,the car will end up with its aluminium(铝)frame and hard glass parts----that's assuming that none of them get destroyed in impacts with passing space rocks.8.What can we infer from the first two paragraphs?______A. Starman is now circling around the Earth in its orbit.B. Starman has set out on its second trip around the Sun.C. Starman has traveled 7.4 million kilometers after launch.D. Starman still has a long way to go before getting to Mars.9.How did McDowell manage to locate Starman?______A. By keeping Starman under visual observation.B. By predicting its future orbit around the earth.C. By seeking professional help from SpaceX.D. By analyzing data about the rocket's movement.10.The underlined word " tug" in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to ______ .A. pullB. driveC. resistanceD. pressure11.What will happen to Starman in decades or centuries?______A. It is circling around Mars and will finally crash onto it.B. It will finish its mission and return to SpaceX on earth.C. Starman is likely reduced to at most its frame and glass.D. SpaceX will try to recover it during its next space mission.DSocial media is taking over our lives:Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and now, TikTok. These social media platforms have transformed from a way to stay connected to an industry where even kids can make money off their posts. While this may seem like another opportunistic innovation,it's really full of hidden false realities.The median income(中位收入)recorded in the United States of America was about $63,000 in 2018. TikTokers can make anywhere from $50,000 to $150,000 for a TikTok brand partnership, and TikTokers with over a million followers can make up to $30,000 a month---$360,000 a year. They are making more than the average person trying to feed their family and keep a roof over their heads,simply by posting a 15-second video.This is mad in more ways than one. Not only is it an overpaid "job",it promotes undeserved admiration from viewers and a false sense of reality. Many of these famous TikTokers are still teens,and the effects of fame at such an early stage in life might cause issues later in life, such as mental illness. Teens between the ages of 13 and 17 make up 27% of TikTok viewers,who can be easily influenced by what they are watching. They can put a false sense of self-value into who they look up to and what they represent:money,fame,being considered conventionally attractive.While TikTok has become a great tool for marketing,it's important to understand how this content affects young viewers. If we're constantly consuming content that shows us all we need to do to be successful is be conventionally attractive and post a 15-second video featuring a new dance,it will challenge our knowledge of what really makes someone successful and will in turn affect our individual work ethics(伦理). What about the people who miss birthdays and family holidays due to their jobs and aren't getting paid nearly as much as these TikTokers?Richard Colyer, president and creator of Metaphor, Inc.,had his own view on this issue. "It sounds great that kids can make money for doing the latest dance moves in a 15-second video, but we should feed the minds of kids and not just their bank accounts. TikTok can be great if used properly. Money alone is not good, technology alone is not good and connectedness can be bad if it's only online."Again, as a fellow consumer of TikTok, I do enjoy the app when I have some time to kill andneed a good laugh. I'm not against someone making a living on entertainment, but what does getting famous of a 15-second video teach young people?12.What does the underlined word "this" in Paragraph 1 refer to?______A. Social networking.B. Making money on social media.C. A job offered by TikTok.D. Staying connected to the Internet.13.Which is the possible influence of TikTok on its young users?______A. They tend to live an adult life too soon.B. They are forced to pay for certain services.C. They may abandon other social media.D. They are likely to develop false values.14.What can we infer from Richard Colyer's comments?______A. TikTok can be a positive influence if teens employ it wisely.B. Young TikTokers should be banned form making money.C. It is better to involve education on investment in TikTok videos.D. Contents of videos need checking before their release online.15.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?______A. Say No to TikTok.B. Join Young TikTokersC. TikTok---A Mine of MoneyD. A Job vs An Entertainment二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共12.5分)If you think you're a pessimist and there's no hope of ever turning it around,then think again! According to mental health experts,it is actually very possible to turn into a glass-half-full kind of person,and here's what you can do to see things in a brighter light.(1)______ Writing down your ideas of an optimistic tomorrow will make a huge difference when it comes to your overall attitude to life. You may also want to consider a serious challenge you have in life right now, and simply sit back and think about all of the possible positive outcomes.Choose to be optimistic. Life is all about choices. You can choose to spend the entire day reading or cleaning. You can make the call you've been thinking about for a while or you can put it off for another day. What's more, you can also choose to be positive or you can choose to simply carry on living as you are. (2)______ And then carry on that way for the rest of yourlife.Extend positiveness to others. Making others feel good about themselves can have lasting positive effects on your own life. Never forget to admire your family, friends, and colleagues for the good things which they are doing in their lives, even if they don't directly affect you. (3)______Recognize your negative thought patterns. It's fine to acknowledge that bad things in life might happen at any time. (4)______ Yet being overly negative can seriously ruin your chances of finding happiness in his life. Reframing your awkwardly negative thoughts into more realistic patterns may be the key to helping you maintain optimism.Practice gratitude. Spend some time thinking about all of the things you have to be thankful for.(5)______ You could even choose to keep diaries,where you can put down anything which makes you smile. If nothing else,take a moment every once in a while to stop, smile and be thankful for the positive things in life.A.Imagine a positive future.B.Form the habit of keeping diaries.C.Of course, it's also necessary to praise yourself.D.Ignoring reality isn't the most helpful method either.E.Being optimistic starts with the decision to be positive.F.It will often provide you with an instant optimism boost.G.Take a moment to work out how realistic your thoughts really are.16.

White survived, but his left arm was crushed beyond repair, and he lost his memory for two years.His pilot license was removed and he could no longer follow his passion for diving. But he had been sailing since he was 16, and so, in 2004, he decided to buy a boat, fitting it out so he could sail it single- handedly. “I didn't know at that point if I could sail with one hand," he says. “But at the back of my mind I had always thought I could do an ything if I put my mind to it."Within a year, White had taken on the challenge of being the first one-armed sailor to circumnavigate (环航) the British Isles. Then he crossed the Atlantic alone in 2008. Last year he became the first sailor with a disability to circumnavigate the globe.Sailing single-handed for weeks requires mental, as well as physical, strength, especially when you are alone. So how does he do it? It's a question that makes the yachtsman (帆船运动员)laugh. “When you have seven children it's lovely to have a little time on your own! It's awesome,” he jokes. “I do a log every hour, and my diary, and I read a few books. I have very little sleep." “I'm a sociable person: I do like lots of people around. Answering emails and chatting over Faceboo k can help stop any loneliness,” he adds.When White made his first Atlantic crossing, he was disappointed to have his peace and quiet broken by his arrival on land. But, he says, he threw himself into meeting new people. In between adventures, he likes sailing with people who haven't tried it before or get involved in yacht races with friends. Perhaps the main reason for his success in adjusting to life after a big adventure, he says, is that he always has an idea for a new one in his back pocket. “It ke eps me ticking over-there's always something new to do. I just like challenges and one leads to another.”24. Why couldn't White continue his passion for diving?A. He lost his left arm.B. His license was due.C. He had a new hobby.D.His memory was poor.25.How did White spend his time at sea?A.By staying awake.B.By visiting old friends.C. By keeping himself busy.D. By attending his children.26. What mainly leads to White's successful adjustment to life after a big adventure?A. Socializing with new people.B. Scheduling new adventures.C. Coaching new yachtsmen.D. Organizing yacht races.27.Which of the following best describes Keith White?A.Creative.B. Humorous.C.Easy-going.D.Adventurous.CAn afternoon nap (午睡) is one of the joys of life, although too much napping could signal all is not well. In some cultures, people will have a daily nap-this is fine. The warming comes when people start sleeping during the daytime, when they did not before. There is certainly a good reason to believe that daytime sleepiness-as in the Alzheimer's study-can be a marker of an underlying condition.For most people, napping during the day is mainly a sign that you are not getting enough sleep at night, says Dr Neil Stanley, a sleep expert. “If you feel sleepy durin g the day, you should think about taking a nap. That is what the body needs-it doesn't need to be kept awake with caffeine, it needs sleep." The feeling to notice is “sleepiness”, he says, not “tiredness",which could be more psychological and linked to stress.So how do you nap well? The key thing, says Stanley, is how long your nap lasts. Choose either a 20- or 90-minute nap. “When you fall asleep, you' ll quickly go through the lighter stages of sleep into your first period of deep sleep. You don't want to wake up in deep sleep because that's when you wake and feel worse than you did before." Napping for 20 minutes means you will wake up before you go into deep sleep; napping for 90 minutes means you'll complete a sleep cycle.Once you factor in the time it takes to fall asleep-some people are better at napping than others but, says Stanley, “a healthy adult will fall asleep in between 5 and 12 minutes"-you can set an alarm, allowing a 30- to 40-minute period for a short nap, and up to two hours for a longer one.A good time to nap is during the body's natural dip in the afternoon, between 2 pm and 4 pm. “You don't really want to be napping much past that because then you are going to be eating into your night-time sleep,” Stanley says. The point, he stress es, is to get good night-time sleep, which would ensure you probably don't need to nap at all.28. What does an afternoon nap indicate for most people?A.Caffeine addiction.B. Psychological stress.C. Insufficient night sleep.D.Potential physical illness.29. What is the key to a good nap?A.Duration.B.Surroundings.C.Health.D.Stages.30. What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph refer to?A. A 30- to 40-minute period.B. Between 2 pm and 4 pm.C.Between 5 and 12 minutes.D.A 20- to 90-minute period.31.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Why to phase a napB. When to take a good napC. What to learn from a nap.D. How to have a successful napDThere is more that comes with older age than greying hair and wrinkled skin. When humans reach their later years, they favour more established friends and their social circle is reduced.Now, for what appears to be the first time, scientists have seen the same behaviour in another species. Twenty years of observations of chimpanzees (猩猩) reveal that older males choose to hang out with their long-term friends at the expense of other relationships.The researchers studied 78,000 hours of observations made between 1996 and 2016 that followed the social interactions of 21 male chimpanzees between the ages of 15 and 58 years old. They classified the chimps' relationships depending on the amount of time they sat with others and groomed (梳毛)them. They then rated the various pairings as mutual(相互的)friendships, where both chimps seemed to enjoy the relationship; one-sided friendships, where one chimp was more keen to be friends than the other; and non-friendships, where neither chimp showed interest in the other.When the scientists looked at the patterns of friendships, they found that the older chimps had more mutual friendships and fewer one-sided friendships than younger chimps. Another feature seen in older humans was also spotted in the chimps. As the males got older, their levels of aggression (挑衅)tailed off, meaning they started fewer fights and tended to intimidate others in their group less often.The observations have left the researchers puzzled. According to an idea in psychology known as socioemotional selectivity theory, or SST, older humans prefer more positive relationships because they are aware time is running out. But many animal experts argue that chimpanzees lack the human sense of mortality (死亡),suggesting something else is driving the behaviour.Robin Dunbar, a professor of evolutionary psychology at the University of Oxford,said in humans, the decline in social circles with age is due to declining social motivation to get out andmeet people combined by lack of opportunity. In chimpanzees, as older males compete less for mates, they may focus on close, reciprocal(互惠的)relationships with trusted partners,she said.32. What do older male chimpanzees favour?A.Old friendships.B. New bonds. D. Wrinkled skin.C.Greying hair.33. How did the researchers draw their conclusion about chimpanzees?A. By turning to other scientists.B. By introducing a new concept.C.By forming relationships with them.D. By analyzing two decades' observations.34. What does the underlined word “intimidate" in Paragraph 5 mean?A.Threaten.B.Motivate.C.Defend.D.Accompany.35.According to Robin Dunbar,what accounts for declining social circles in chimpanzees?A.Awareness of time.B.Less competition for mates.C. Low motivation for socialization.D. Lack of the human sense of mortality.第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。
