She brushed her fingertips over its surface, remembering.Jerry was only seven when he started surfing；by the age of eleven, he was positively incredible, moving over the face of big waves like there wasn’t even a slightest bit of efforts involved in.On that day in Bah, though, the ocean had seemed strange. The waves broke like water in a washing machine, and the breaks had been heavy too. making it tough to tell whether it was better to try to catch one or to get out of its way. That was how he’d misjudged.Ella had seen her brother lose control, his board was thrown out of the water riderless high into the air, but she hadn’t seen him surface. She’d waited for the space of a breath. Nothing. Something, clearly, was wrong.She dashed into the water, swimming faster even than the competitions at school. Lung burning. Heart Piping-Focused.She’d found him floating just beyond the reef (暗礁), face up but knocked out cold. Just as she was paddling the water hard, her leg was hurt by the reef, a short, sharp instant of pain.No matter. She had kept Jerry’s head above water, swimming all the way back to shore. That day had been the worst, scariest moment in Jerry’s surfing career, which has seen him rise from a no-name kid who loved the ocean to a young star, winning competitions around the world.For Ella, her life had changed as well. She had learned something about who she was, about what she could achieve. She ran her fingers again over the scar, the physical map of the person she had become.24. Why did Ella think something was wrong?A. She didn't see Jerry come out of water.B. She had not seen Jerry lose control before.C. She saw Jerry’s board high into the air.D.

Ella was as outstanding an athlete as Jerry.B. Jerry learned how to surf all by himself.C. Ella was grateful for this terrible experience.D. Jerry had his leg injured in the surfing accident.COne Japanese woman has proved that age really is just a number.Masako Wakamiya learned how to use a computer at the age of 60 and now, at 81, she has released an app that shows people how to property display traditional dolls for Hinamatsuri.Wakamiya spent 43 years of her life working in a bank in Japan and only started using computers at the age of 60, reports Rocket News24.However, she is showing others that not all elderly individuals are afraid of technology.After her retirement, Wakamiya bought her first computer and joined an online computer club to become more familiar with the technology - but this was after she set up and connected the computer to the web on her own.After 5 years’ learning about computers, Wakamiya began designing her own apps. The app, called Hinadan, asks players to place 12 dolls in their proper positions on a standard display.If you place the doll in the wrong spot, the app will play a ‘Boo’ sound, but if it is correct, players should hear ‘Pon’ and the sounds of a drum.The game will then be finished once the dolls are arranged in their proper order, which is important to honor the traditional Hinamatsuri, or Girl’s Day, which takes place on March 3rd.Although Wakamiya may break the traditional idea about most elderly individuals, a study does suggest that she is heading down the right path to avoid other health risks.A team at the Mayo Clinic in Arizona linked many activities with preserving brain power in the elderly - but getting on line seems particularly effective.The American study found that those who used a computer at least once a week were 42 percent less likely than those who didn’t to develop mild cognitive impairment which is often a warning sign for dementia (老年痴呆).28. What does the author intend to tell readers through Wakamiya’s story?A. The elderly are fond of tradition festivals.B. The elderly are interested in technology.C. It benefits the elderly to use computers occasionally.D. It takes the elderly longer time to design apps.29. At what age did Wakamiya begin to design her own apps?A.43.B. 60.C. 65.D. 81.30. Why did Wakamiya design the game?A. To honor the traditional Girl’s Day.B. To avoid cognitive impairment.C. To enrich old people’s life.D. To exhibit her dolls on the Internet.31. By saying “age really is just a number”, the author means that.A. the elderly are sensitive to numbersB. the elderly don’t fit in with the InternetC. the elderly can still do many thingsD. the elderly find it unavoidable to get oldDSelfies (自拍) are increasingly popular on social media. Selfie accessories (配件) such as selfie sticks are now as common as selfie cameras on phones, and the word “selfie” was even added to the Oxford English Dictionary in 2013.While selfies are extremely common, opinions on selfies can vary significantly, with some seeing them as creative and a way to connect with other people and others seeing them as narcissistic (自恋的), self-promotional and inauthentic.In a recent study published in Frontiers in Psychology, Sarah Diefenbach,a professor at Ludwig-Maximilians- University Munich, conducted an online survey to assess people’s motivation and judgments when taking and viewing selfies.A total of 238 people living in Austria, Germany and Switzerland completed the survey.Interestingly, despite 77% of the participants taking selfies regularly, more than 60% agreed on the potential negative (消极的) consequences of selfies，such as influences on self-respect. And 82% of participants indicated that they would rather see other types of photos instead of selfies on social media. This phenomenon, where many people regularly take selfies but most people don’t appear to like them，has been termed the “selfie paradox” by Diefenbach.The participants owed greater self-promotional motivation and less authenticity to selfies taken by others, compared with those taken by themselves. “This may explain how everybody can take selfies without feeling narcissistic. If most people think like this, then it is no wonder that the world is full of selfies,” Diefenbach explains.32. What is the purpose of the online survey?C. To see how many people take selfies regularly.D. To see why people take selfies and how they see it.33. The selfie paradox^ describes that .A. people enjoy taking selfies but don’t seem to like themB. people consider selfies as creative but inauthenticC. people like selfies by others instead of by themselvesD. people regard selfies harmful though they bring self-respect34. What can we learn from the text?A. Most people refuse to put their selfies on social media.B. Most people .end to show interest in others’ selfies.C. Takin selfies is a good way to respect oneself.D. Taking selfies is a common scene around us.35. What may be the best title for the text?A. Selfies or NarcissismB. No Selfies, No PopularityC. Love Me. Love My SelfiesD.
