I’d never set foot in a comedy club before. I’ve always been a performer —I’ve worked as a singer, actor and musician —but all that came to an end after 9/11. I live in New York, and we watched the twin towers fall from my apartment building. For a year afterwards, nobody wanted to go out or be entertained.It was then that I started to think about comedy. I realised people needed to laugh,to enjoy themselves again, and thought that with a little training I could do it. I took a few classes, tried to work out a routine, and finally plucked up the courage to get up on stage. That first time was terrifying. I had no idea what the audience would makeof me.In New York, comedians are typically young men with beards. It’s hard enough to break through as a woman, even harder as someone old enough to be their grandmother. As I stepped on stage that first time, people laughed nervously. They were clearly surprised to see me. I introduced myself, stated my age and tried my first joke. There was silence. But by the time I got to the third line, people were properly laughing, I was addicted.Now my sets differ. I might be on stage for 10 minutes in front of a dozen people,or my one-woman show is a full hour in front of a crowd of 100. Even today, I’m nervous before I step out. My first line is, “Hello, everybody. I’m 88 and three-quarters years old. I’m telling you that in case I don’t make it all the way through the show.” Then people laugh and I relax.After a show, people young and old come up to me, saying what an inspiration I am. They say they want to be as active as me when they reach my age. I’m pleased I canshow that as an older person you don’t need to take a back seat in life.I’ve no intention of stopping comedy. I’m taking all these pills, trying to stay alive, and I hope to still be performing when I’m 100. My goal is to still be up there making people laugh. It’s hard work, but it stops me being bored. I’d only be playing golf otherwise19. What made the writer take up comedy?A.She wanted to overcome her fears B.She wanted to brighten others’ lives C.She was unwilling to quit performing D.She wanted to work out a routine 20. Why does the writer mention young men with beards in Paragraph 3?A.To show the challenge she was facing B.To explain her attraction to the jobC.To illustrate her special advantage D.To describe her new friends in comedy21. How has the writer made progress since her first performance?A.She now performs before larger audiencesB.She no longer feels nervous before performancesC.She remains on the stage for a longer timeD.She has learned to make a joke of her age22. Which of the following statements would the writer agree with? A.Age is just a number B.Old age brings greater wisdomC.Old age means a chance to sit back D.Being elderly means you have to slow downWinning a remarkable science award is really a big deal, especially if you are 12years old. But Shanya Gill, a middle schooler from San Jose, California, won the top award in the Thermo Fisher Scientific Junior Innovators Challenge for designing a fire detection system that is superior to existing ones, as stated in the press release.“The top winners have exhibited boundless curiosity,” Maya Ajmera president and CEO of Society for Science, said in the press release. “Their remarkable research not only reflects their talent but also paves the way for an exciting new future.”Shanya’s inspiration came after a fire destroyed a restaurant in her neighborhood during the summer of 2022, reported The Washington Post. “I had never really experienced something like that before,” she told The Washington Post about the early morning fire at Holder’s Country Inn, which started in the kitchen. “They had smoke detectors. and yet it still burned down,” she added.After she studied fire statistics, Shaya spent over a year developing a fire detection system that she believes could have prevented the fire. Unlike traditional smoke detectors that sense active fires from the smoke in the air, Shanya’s thermal (热的) imaging device is designed to stop fires from occurring.With a thermal camera and a Raspberry Pi, a tiny computer the device detects when a heat source has been left unattended for ten minutes and sends a text message warning. Creating the prototype(原型) was difficult and the hardest part was the programming, “I had two designs, and my first design completely failed. It was a really big challenge I had to go through.” she said. The final device outperforms smoke detectors in speed and accuracy. Shanya wants to bring the costs down to make it even more common than hardwired smoke detectors.“Shanya saw a problem, went after it and tried to solve it, and that’s what we need to encourage with all young people,” said Ajmera. She also highlighted the significance of supporting individuals, especially girls and kids of color, in STEMfields, as research indicates that many young people drop out of these areas.23. What can we learn about Shanya from the first two paragraphs?A.She gained a lot of money in the award.B.She showed a curious nature as a schooler.C.She set a big stage for young people her age.D.She was junior to other winners in performance.24. What motivated Shanya to develop her fire detection system?A.Her desire to win the science award.B.Her experience of a destructive fire.C.Her interest in computer programming.D.Her goal to improve STEM education for girls.25. What is an advantage of Shanya’s invention?A.It consists of two parts that are easier to conduct.B.It can send out a warning against a potential fire.C.It can detect active fires from the smoke in the air.D.It functions when a fire breaks out within 10 minutes.26. Which of the following can best describe Shanya?A.Reliable.B.Cooperative.C.Innovative.D.Generous.Doctors at the University of California, San Francisco, in the US, have developed a piece of software that can read minds. The project, supported by Facebook, hopes to help people who, because of medical conditions, are unable to communicate with others.Until now, technologies that have helped speech-impaired (语言障碍) people communicate have been too slow to allow a natural conversation. People find thesethings upsetting to use. This new way uses brain signals to change a person’s thoughts into text. When we want to speak, the brain sends signals to make the lips, jaw and tongue move in the right way to make an understandable sound. By discovering these brain signals, the new software is able to predict what a person want to say quickly enough to hold a conversation.The brain-reading software was tested on three volunteers who could all speak like healthy people. They were being treated for epilepsy (癫痫). As part of their treatment for epilepsy, each patient had electrodes(电极) placed on to their brain. Edward Chang, whole d the study, used these electrodes to record the signals in the patients’brains while they listened to a list of questions and answered them.Chang and his team then built a computer program that learned to match the patients’ brain signals to the words the patients heard and the words the patients spoke. For the questions, the software matched the correct words 76%of the time. For the answers, it matched the correct words 61%of the time.Now, the mind-reading software works only for the limited set of sentences on which it was trained. Scientists hope that this early system will help them develop a more powerful one that could understand thoughts in real time to give people their voices back. Chang said, “We as scientists should try our best to help people to bring that most important and basic human ability back.”27. What is the disadvantage of previous technologies?A.They couldn’t read people’s minds correctly.B.They couldn’t make communication understandable.C.They couldn’t serve the purpose of natural conversation.D.They couldn’t let medical conditions change for the better.28. How does the software help people?A.By changing people’s mind into text.B.By sending signals to their lips. C.By organizing conversations for them.D.By training them how to speak.29. What can we know about the mind-reading software according to the last paragraph?A.It has been used on a wide scale.B.It has restored the basic human ability.C.It still has plenty of room for improvement.D.It has enhanced human real-time conversation.30. What is the attitude of the author towards the mind-reading software?A.Favorable.B.Objective.C.Intolerant.D.Doubtful.Are you interested in attracting good luck and experiencing more success in your life? In this article, we’ll show you how to use positive thinking to create your opportunities and attract good fortune.Define luck for yourself. Your desires serve as the roots of “luck”. One person might feel most lucky in passing an exam while another person in scoring her first hole. 31 If you feel unlucky, maybe it is because you have not identified what you want to be doing.Be bold. The “unlucky” are often experts in making themselves comfortable and safe, but achieve little. 32 It takes courage to accept failure as a short-lived misfortune. Instead of wasting time avoiding tough situations, they would come up with reasons to act.See challenges as opportunities to succeed. You’ve just been offered an exciting but strikingly new responsibility at work? Take it with passion. You’ve been asked tospeak in front of a huge crowd of people? Write a great speech. 3334 Unlucky people owe luck to accident, applying it as a chance to make excuses. Lucky people, however, build it into more good fortune. The only difference between the lucky and the unlucky, as reported, was that the former kept an eye out for luck, and the unlucky — given the exact same advantage — missed it.Work hard. Sow the seeds of luck with labor. If you’re working twice as hard at work, your work will be twice as good, and you’ll tend to feel twice as lucky for having it done. 35 For example, don’t worry about everything you’ve got to do for the rest of the week on Monday and just think about this moment.A.Take advantage of good fortune.B.Don’t make excuses to deal with bad luck.C.Feeling lucky is to recognize your deep desires.D.They are not brave enough to concentrate on regular actions.E.Treat terrifying moments as chances,not as hopeless difficulties.F.Try to focus on doing one thing at a time and doing it extremely well.G.But people who feel lucky put themselves in situations where they may fail.三、完形填空It was the 2019 summer break.

Getting through four years of college is a challenge for anyone, but for kids like Caleb Simmons, it seemed nearly impossible.Caleb didn’t even get into the University of Texas at Dallas the first time he applied. Once he did get in, though, his entire life seemed to collapse around him just as he was trying to find his footing at school. When his family lost their house during his freshman year, Caleb found himself homeless.“At some point, I couldn’t go to class. I really was about to just drop out,” he said. “We lost our house. I had nowhere to stay. I had no car at the time.”Finally, out of sheer desperatio n, Caleb turned to the school administration for help. That’s when he met Joann Chapin, a student solutions specialist on campus who made it her mission to help the young man find his footing. And on weekends and school breaks, Caleb spent his time with Joann and her children, growing so close that they now consider one another family.Four years after hitting rock bottom, Caleb not only graduated, but he was asked to deliver a speech to his classmates at graduation! He used the opportunity to thank his new “mom”, Joann, who sat front and center in his family section that day.During Caleb’s graduation speech, he called upon those dark days early on to convey a simple message to his peers: No matter how much poverty, or unfortunate circumstances a person can be put in, they can still make a better life for themselves. Opportunities can happen if you go for them. His next goal is to work for the college that helped him through his toughest times so that he can encourage teens living in poverty to reach their goals, as he did.1. Why was it nearly impossible for Caleb to graduate from college?A.He was abandoned by his family.B.He was on bad terms with his classmates.C.He lost shelter and was trapped in poverty.D.He failed to attend all the required classes.2. Which of the following can best describe Caleb?A.Determined and humorous. B.Grateful and sympathetic.C.Committed and creative. D.Realistic and ambitious.3. What is the best title for the text?A.Step out, Get Rid of SufferingB.Give a Hand, Make a DifferenceC.Build up Confidence, Get Through DifficultiesD.Overcome Homelessness, Graduate with Honors3. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy recently declared children’s mental health is a national crisis.In December 2021, Dr. Murthy issued a report to highlight the additional pressures the economic depression had put on the country’s youth, and the urgent need to address this. The impact of this crisis is far-reaching, and new research shows that it’s affecting parents’ well-being, plus their ability to succeed at work and provide for their families.“On Our Sleeves, a national movement that aims to break shame around children’s mental health, surveyed more than 3,000 working parents across the US and found that 8 in 10 parents have been very concerned about their child’s mental health and development or behavior in the past two years. Children’s mental health concerns have been hiding in plain sight for many years, surrounded by confusion and shame,” says Marti Bledsoe Post, the director of On Our Sleeves.The survey found that 53% of working parents have missed work at least once per month to deal with their children’s mental health. And 71% of parents said issues with their child’s mental or emotional well-being made the stresses of work much more difficult to cope with.“Employers need to know that many of their employees are struggling and it is impinging their work as a result,” says Marti. “Our mission with On Our Sleeves is to provide every family i n America access to free, evidence-based educational resources. We see this study as incredibly important in starting the conversation and providing solutions for working families.”As Marti points out, for some parents, taking a child to weekly therapy (心理治疗) appointments and attending meetings at school consume a lot of time. These parents should be helped.1. What do parents care about most at present?A.Economic effect. B.Pressure on children.C.Children’s mental health.D.Children’s education.2. What does paragraph 4 show about kids’ mental health?A.It is a main social problem. B.It makes doctors confused.C.It’s difficult for parents to handle.D.It impacts on their parents’ work.3. What does the underlined word “impinging” in paragraph 5 mea n?A.Selecting. B.Judging.C.Affecting. D.Doubting.4. What can we learn from the text?A.Most children’s mental health is good.B.The economy has few effects on the youth.C.Parents’ health can affect kids, mental health.D.It’s urgent to solve kids’ mental problems.4. 将下列几个部分(A、B、C、D和E)按题号排序,构成一个符合逻辑的完整语篇。

BMy dad loved pennies, especially those with wheat. Those were the pennies he grew up with in Iowa and he didn’t have many.When I was a kid, Dad and I would go for walks together. We’d spy coins along the way. Whenever I picked up a penny, he’d ask, “Is it a wheat?” It a lways thrilled him when we found one of those special coins produced between 1909 and 1958, the year of my birth. He told me he often dreamed of finding coins. “I have that dream too!” I told him. It was our secret connection.Dad died in 2002. One grey day, not long after his death, I was walking down Fifth Avenue and I found myself in front of the oldest church in Manhattan, which my father had been attending. I was greeted in warmly. The song was Dad’s favorite, one we’d sung at his funeral.After the service, I walked out, stepped onto the sidewalk-and there was a penny. I picked it up, and sure enough, it was a wheat, a 1944, a year my father was serving on a ship in the South Pacific. Then, wheat pennies began turning up on the sidewalks everywhere. I got most of the important years: his birth year, the war years, the year he met my mom, the year they got married. But , no 1958 penny-my year.The next Sunday, after the service, I was walking up Fifth Avenue and spotted a penny in the middle of the street. It was a busy street, but I risked my safety and got it.A wheat! There was my birthday.I found 21 wheat pennies on the streets of Manhattan in the year after my father died, and I don’t think that’s a coincidence.24. What do we know about Dad in the text?A. Dad helped to build the old church.B. Dad was once in the navy during the war.C. Dad had enough money to spend as a kid.D. Dad was greedy for he always looked for pennies.25. How did the author find the penny with his year?A. He searched hard and found it.B. He dug in the street in order to get it.C. He sang a religious song in order to find it.D. He found it by chance but got it by trying hard.26. What does the author mean by the last sentence?A. Dad buried the pennies before passing away.B. Our life is fixed and no one can change it.C. The author thinks 21 pennies is a lot of money.D. The pennies stood for father’s love from heaven.27.What is the best title for the text?A. Pennies from HeavenB. My loving DadC. My happy childhoodD. Days in New YorkCWhat does it mean to cry over a book? “I’m a reader who did not weep,” Ruth Graham, a well-known critic, wrote. “Does this make me heartless? Or doesit make me a grown-up?”Tears have played a surprisingly important part in the history of the novel. Readers have always asked about the role that emotion plays in reading: What does it mean to be deeply moved by a book? Which books are worthy objects of our feelings?In different times, people answered those questions in different ways. In the early eighteenth century, when the novel was still a new form, crying was a sign of readers’ virtue. “Sentimental” novels, full of touching scenes, gave readers an occasion to exercise their “finer feelings.” Your tear proved that you were likely to feel the suffering of others.At that time, sentimental novels were hugely popular, but also easy to attack. Tears, after all, had no necessary connection to actual virtue, and they could be not true. As the critic John Mullan points out, by the end of the eighteenth century, the word “sentimental” had acquired a new meaning —“addicted to low emotion” — bringing it closer to the meaning that it has for us today.In the nineteenth century, the meaning of tears evolved in two different directions. Some writers soug ht to waken “higher” feelings in their readers: Victorian sentimentalists wrote touching scenes in an effort to inspire social and political reform. However, the “sensation” novel, a different type of Victorian best-seller, showed that tears could be enjoyable in themselves. Sensation novels were the leaders of the modern thriller and mystery. Heavy on secrets, and madness, they were known for creating physical “sensations” in their readers —trembling, a fast beating heart, and tears. But these were tears without moral purpose or effect.Today’s debate about crying while reading looks back on all of this history. The debate, in fact, is about why books matter to us, and what reading is “for.” Talking about what makes us cry is a way of talking about ourselves.28. What was people’s attitude towards crying over novels in the early 18th century?A. Doubtful.B. Positive.C. Uncaring.D. Worried.29. From the passage we can know that “sensation” novels _________.A. aimed for social and political reformB. helped understand others’ sufferingC. consisted of many touching scenesD. tended to amuse the readers30. The author presents this text mainly ________.A. by providing examplesB. by making comparisonsC. by following the order of timeD. by following the order of importance31.What’s the best title for the text?A. Sentimental novels & sensation novelsB. Crying while reading through centuriesC. The history of the novelD. Why books matter to usDBeing physically active three times a week reduces the odds of being depressed by about 16%, according to new UCL research carried out as part of the PublicHealth Research Center.The study, published in JAMA Psychiatry, found a two-way relationship between depression and physical activity. People who increased their weekly activity reported fewer depressive symptoms but those with more depressive symptoms were less active, particularly at younger ages.Researchers followed 11,135 people born in 1958 up until the age of 50, recording depressive symptoms and levels of physical activity at regular intervals in adulthood. They found that each additional activity period per week reduced odds of depression by 6%. In England 19% of men and 26% of women are currently classed as “inactive”, and this study suggests that activity could significantly improve their mental as well as physical health.“Assuming the association is causal, physical activity has a protective effect against depression. If an adult between their twenties and forties who isn’t physica lly active became active 3 times per week, they would reduce their risks of depression by about 16%.” says Dr. Snehal of the UCL Institute of Child Health, lead author of the study.Professor Mark, Director of the Public Health Research Center, said, “Many people are already aware of the benefits of physical activity on their general health, but now we are seeing more evidence that suggest it also has a positive effect on a person’s mental well-being. The latest research highlights just how important it is to ensure that people are working and living in environments that allow them to be both physically active and mentally healthy.”32. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A. To tell us a fun story about how to protect us against depression.B. To introduce a research on the link between activity and depression.C. To persuade readers to increase their weekly activity.D. To describe the disadvantages of physical activity.33. According to the second paragraph, if people increase their weekly activity, ______.A. their depressive symptoms will be fewerB. their depressive symptoms will be moreC. they will become much youngerD. they will become more depressive34.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.

Adults who insist on physical activity will reduce depression completely.D. Increasing physical activities can free people from depression in a way.35.The author shows his view mainly by_______.A. doing researchB. comparing and contrastingC. trying on himselfD. discussing and summarizing第二节 (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。
