Knock, knock. Starting from Nov.1, 2020, people will be knocking on doors across
the country to collect personal information. But don’t panic. This is for the seventh national population census. The Chinese population census takes place every 10 years. It gathers data including name, age, ID number, gender, education, job, marital status and housing situation.
Tracking down more than 1 billion Chinese citizens is by no means easy. This year,
about 7 million staff will be needed to visit homes for registration work, according to Xinhua. New methods will also be used during this census, including online information registration, application of electronic devices and big data. Compared with
第4 页 /共 12 页
previous surveys, new methods will be convenient for people who are not living where they are officially registered, as well as those who do not want to be bothered by census takers’ door-to-door surveys. The new methods also reduce census takers’ workload.
The data is expected to give a full picture of the population, including its size,
structure and distribution and recent changes. It provides support for making national development policies.
The census has a large impact on our lives. For instance, areas with a high number
of children may receive more funding for public schools. Researchers can use the results to investigate population trends in different cities. The census will help to find out the number of foreigners living in China. It can also tell how many Chinese people have moved to other countries.
However, citizens’ privacy concerns could be one of the biggest challenges. Some
may not be willing to give their personal information to census takers because they are worried about what the data would be used for. There are also worries about privacy leakage among the public. In response to such concerns, Jiangsu’s pilot work zone allowed residents to upload personal data on their own through WeChat, which avoids information leakage. The data will be delivered directly to the National Bureau of Statistics through a WeChat program..
24. Which can be inferred about the census according to the text?
A. This census will be conducted only by knocking on doors.
B. This census will be easy by taking some new methods.
C. It gathers data including your name, age, and education.
D. The previous census was likely to begin around 2010.
25. Which of the following may be the influence the census has on citizens’ lives?
A. Areas with a high number of children will receive the most funding.
B. Researchers can use population trends to investigate the results.
C. The census will help to drive out the foreigners living in China.
D. The census will help to learn about the immigration situation.
26. Why are some people not willing to give their personal information to census takers?
A. Because they are worried that the data would be used.
B. Because their privacy will be known by the government.
C. Because their information can be stolen by a man of ill will.
D Because the data will be uploaded through a WeChat program.
27. In which section is the passage most probably taken from?
A. Society B. Psychology C. Science D. Entertainment

One of the most traditional British holidays is the "seaside holiday". Typically, families get on a train or into a car and travel to British seaside towns. They sunbathe on the beach, buy ice creams, eat fish and chips, build sandcastles and so on.
In the early 1970s, air travel became affordable for the average family in the UK,
and more and more British people started travelling abroad for their summer holidays. After all, the British weather isn’t very good, even in summer, so a lot leave the UK for a vacation. Particularly popular with families on a budget is the "package holiday", where the cost of flights and accommodation are offered at a discounted price by travel agents.
In the 1980s and 1990s, young people in the UK became more wealthy, or at least
had more disposable income. As a result, young people started to go abroad in groups, to places such as Spain and Greece. Once at their destination, they socialized with other groups of young people and had one long party.
British holidaying habits have begun to change, however. Climate change means
that the UK now has a warmer climate than before, so people don’t always feel they need to go overseas to find good weather. Also, the world seems a less certain place as interconnected economics rise and fall, which means that the cost of foreign holidays is less predictable than it used to be. As a result, more and more Britons are choosing to spend their summer holidays in the UK.
In the UK, the domestic tourism industry—when people go on holiday in their
own country—is healthier than it has been in decades. There is now an increased appreciation among Britons for the diversity of the UK. It is not just the geography and the diversity of climate-based activities on offer. It’s also the diversity of the cultures in the UK that is beginning to be of interest to domestic tourists.
The UK has always been famous for its international explorers, but now it is
starting to discover itself.
28. What mainly caused Britons to travel abroad for holidays in the early 1970s?
A. The bad weather in the UK. B. The trend of going overseas.
C. The lower cost of flights. D. The rise of tourism industry.
29. What does the underlined word “disposable” mean in the third paragraph?
A. Steady in amount. B. Available for use.
C.Easy to handle. D. Flexible to change.
30. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Both domestic and international tourists are interested in the diversity of the UK.
B. Steady interconnected economics encourage more Britons to holiday in the UK.
C. Package holiday was particularly popular with rich families in the early 1970s.
D. Climate change has an impact on the change of British holidaying habits.

31. What’s the author’s attitude towards UK’s domestic tourism industry?
A.Uncertain. B. Pessimistic. C. Optimistic. D. Critical.

They say procrastination is the thief of time — actually deadlines are. New research has found that if you want someone to help you out with something. it is best not to set a deadline at all. But if you do set a deadline, make it short.
Professor Stephen Knowles tested the effect of deadline length on task completion
for their research. Participants were invited to complete an online survey concerning a charity donation. They were given either one week, one month, or no deadline to respond. Professor Knowles says although the topic of the survey was about charity, the results are true of any situation where someone asks another person for help.
The study found responses to the survey were lowest for the one-month deadline
and highest when no deadline was specified(明确规定). No deadline and the one-week deadline led to many early responses, while a long deadline appeared to give people permission to procrastinate. And then forget. Professor Knowles wasn’t surprised to find that specifying a shorter deadline increased the chances of receiving a response compared to a longer deadline. However, he did find it interesting that they received the most responses when no deadline was specified.
“We interpret this as evidence that specifying a longer deadline, as opposed to a
short deadline or no deadline at all, removes the urgency to act,” he says. “People therefore put off undertaking the task, and since they are inattentive or forget, postponing it results in lower response rates.”
He says of the research that it is possible that not specifying a deadline might still
have led participants to assume that there is an unspoken deadline. Professor Knowles hopes his research can help reduce the amount of procrastinating people do. “Many people procrastinate. They have the best intentions of helping someone out, but just do not get around to doing it.”
32. Why did Professor Knowles do the research?
A. To study the role a deadline plays in procrastination.
B. To find out whether people are interested in charity.
C. To attract public attention to the effects of procrastination.
D. To test the effect of procrastination on task completion.
33. What most likely leads to procrastination?
A. No deadlines. B. Short deadlines.
C. Specific deadlines. D. Long deadlines.
34. Why do people procrastinate when given a long deadline?
A. They oppose the deadline.
第7 页 /共 12 页
B. They are unwilling to act.
C. They lack a sense of urgency.
D. They are too busy to remember.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Procrastination---- the Thief of Time
B. Procrastination----an Urgent Problem to Solve
C. Deadline ----a Result of Procrastination
D. Deadline----the Key to Reducing Procrastination

The reasons skiers and snowboarders wear goggles or glasses might seem a little
obvious, especially if you’ve ever hit the slopes yourself. Sunlight reflected off the snow can make it hard to see, and UV rays can even damage your eyesight. Special colored lenses also create contrast, so your whole path won’t look like one flat expanse
of whiteness. 36
Olympic speed skaters, meanwhile, are racing inside on smooth ice. 37
According to NBC Olympics, glasses can increase visibility on indoor tracks, too.
38 And while the ice may look smooth from a distance, those sharp blades can
kick up ice chips that could pose problems if they end up in your eyes. In the event of a crash, shatter-proof glasses also protect skaters’ eyes from errant blades and body parts.
39 Shot-track speed skaters (who race around a roughly 11-meter track)
can go as fast as 30 miles per hour or more, and long-track speed skaters (whose track is 400 meters long) sometimes hit about 35 miles per hour. The wind resistance generated by such speed- in a chilly arena—is enough to make any skater’s eyes start streaming with tears. Picture leaning your head out the window of a car that’s going around 35 miles per hour on a cold day: You’d probably want to be wearing glasses, too.
That said, glasses aren’t a requirement. 40 Belgium’s Stijn Desmet, for
example, has raced in Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games without eyewear, as has China’s Zhang Chutong.
A.How do they wear glasses?
B.So why do they wear glasses?
C.Some skiers are afraid of the sunlight.
第8 页 /共 12 页
D.Some skaters’ lenses are colored to help with that.
E.You’ll occasionally see speed skaters with uncovered faces.
F.Not to mention that eyewear protects your eyes from any snow you displace.
G.But the biggest reason speed skaters opt for eyewear just might be their speed.

During the war, my husband was stationed at an army camp in a desert in
California. I went to live there in order to be 41 him. I hated the place. I had
never 42 been so unhappy. My husband was ordered out on a long-term duty,
and I was left in a tiny shack (棚屋) alone. The heat was 43 — almost 125°F
even in the shade of a cactus (仙人掌). 44 a soul to talk to. The wind blew
non-stop, and all the food I ate, and the very air I breathed, were 45 with sand,
sand, sand!
I was so sorry for myself that I wrote to my parents. I told them I was 46
and coming back home. I said I couldn’t stand it one minute longer. I 47 be in
prison! My father answered my 48 with just two lines — two lines that will
always sing in my 49 — two lines that completely changed my life:
Two men looked out from prison bars,
One saw the mud, the other saw the stars.
I read those two lines 50 . I was ashamed of myself. I made up my mind I
would find out what was good in my present 51 ; I would look for the stars.
I made friends with the natives, and their 52 amazed me. They gave me
presents of their favorite artworks which they had 53 to sell to tourists. I studied
the delightful forms of the cactus. I watched for the desert sunsets, and 54 for
seashells that had been left there millions of years ago when the sands of the desert had
been an ocean 55 .
What brought about this 56 change in me? The desert hadn’t changed, 57
I had. I had changed my 58 . And by doing so, I changed an unhappy experience
into the most amazing 59 of my life. I was excited by this new world that I had
discovered. I had looked out of my self-created prison and 60 the stars.
