How will it benefit learners?

Through all kinds of practical activities, learners will:

·learn first aid for common injuries and what to do in a first-aid emergency

·develop basic life skills, including how to deal with challenging situations

15-year-old Max produced the Vybpro, a wearable wristband which warns users whenever they are about to touch their faces. The gesture has been recognized as one of the key ways that COVID -19 can he spread, making it a potentially life-saving invention.

He first hit on the excellent idea two years ago for the purpose of reducing the spread of the cold and flu. After both of Max’s parents were infected with COVID-19 four months ago, however, he put in all his effort to develop a working prototype(模型).

Worn on both wrists, the intelligent device is expected to sell for￡89. It uses position- sending technology algorithms(算法)to tell between predicted face touching and other hand motions. Then the device warns users of hand gestures that are dangerously near the face.

"We came up with the concept a few years ago when my family was repeatedly catching cold and flu viruses from traveling in and out of London and I could see how easy it was to pick up germs especially from using public transport," said Max. "It was only when the World Health Organization(WHO) began suggesting people avoid touching their eyes, noses and faces to stop the spread of viruses from contaminated surfaces did I realize that it could play a part in slowing the spread of COVID-19."

Max, who is from Bristol, launched a ￡60,000 crowdfunding campaign(众筹活动)on Kickstarter earlier this week to further his project and turn the prototype into a public reality. "The main task of this project is not to make money, but to get it onto the wrists of those it can help keep safe. Any profits made from early sales through the crowdfunding site will be reinvested into providing free devices for organizations that help people such as National Health Service(NHS) staff and nursing homes."

24. Why did Max develop the Vybpro?

A. To prevent the spread of the cold and flu.     B. To protect people against COVID-19.

C. To test position-sending technology.         D To monitor people’s health.

25. What does the underlined word "contaminated" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?

A. polluted      B. dangerous      C. stained      D. rough

26. What did Max start the crowdfunding campaign for?

A. Raising money for nursing homes.     B. Providing free devices for NHS.

C. Helping to advance his project.        D. Making a better type of Vybpro.

27. What can we learn from Max’s story?

A. Hard work pays off.                B. Technology changes our lives.

C. Ups and downs make one strong.     D. Little people can make a big difference.

C

If you care what other people think of your social media posts, you may want to think twice before uploading selfies(自拍照), according to research from psychologists at Washington State University(WSU).

WSU psychology professor Chris Barry worked with WSU students, as well as researchers from the University of Southern Mississippi to design a project. The team asked 30 students at the Mississippi school to fill out personality questionnaires and allow researchers to use their 30 most recent Instagram posts. Those 900 pictures were shown to 119 WSU students, who were asked to judge the Mississippi school students on 13 attributes(特质)such as self-absorption, self-respect, dependability and likability.

"The study found that people who posted a lot of selfies were almost commonly viewed as less pleasant。less successful and more insecure than those who posted more 'posies'-that is, traditionally posed photos that appear to be taken by someone else," Barry said.

Those without a friend available to take a picture can try using a self-timer to take their own posed photos from farther away than at arm’s length. The WSU researchers found that even if a photo that appears to be a "posie" was, in fact, taken by the subject, it was still considered more positively than obvious selfies.

Thus, Keely Kolmes, a San Francisco-based psychologist with expert knowledge in social media matters, suggests not being concerned about social media. "Though it is kind of difficult when we focus on the number of likes or how many followers we have or the number of interactions," said Keely Kolmes. "We should unplug(拔去电源插头)once in a while. Get out in nature, connect with friends outside of technology and remember that there is a better world outside your phone, too."

28. Why did the research team carry out the project?

A. To study what people think of selfie lovers.

B. To test what kind of photos gain popularity.

C. To collect enough Instagram posts for students.

D. To identify the personalities of social media users.

29. What can we infer from the research team’s findings?

A. Successful people are fond of posting selfies.

B. Selfies are in fact no more positive than posies.

C. Taking selfies has bad effects on personalities.

D. People regard those who like selfies unfavourably.

30. What does Keely Kolmes suggest people do?

A. Take pictures in nature.            B. Get more likes and followers.

C. Take advantage of social media.     D. Pay less attention to your phone.

31. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?

A. Science.     B. Lifestyle.     C. Nature.     D. Education.

D

A sustainable(可持续的)neighborhood in the Dutch town of Nieuwkoop is leaving on the welcome light for hats. And if all goes well, they’11 never even notice it.

The neighborhood, based on research showing that light-shy bats are impacted by white and green light, but not red, uses street lighting that features specialized bat-friendly LEDs. This particular network of lights shines with a somewhat strange red color. To light-sensitive nocturnal(夜间活动的)creatures, however, this specialized red light preserves the night conditions important to their well-being.

"Bats don’t see red light as particularly bright," said Maurice Donners, a senior scientist at Signify, which designed the new streetlights. "So if you have certain bat species that are really avoiding light, I think the obvious thing to do is use red light which is visible to us, but is much less visible, or perhaps even invisible, to bats."

The motivating factor behind using the new streetlights came after Nieuwkoop decided to create a new neighborhood of 89 homes near a nature reserve for rare and threatened species, which was also home to many light-sensitive bats. To reduce the impact the new community would have on the bats’ nocturnal feeding habits without compromising the safety of local people, developers reached out to Signify to find out more about the use of the bat-friendly lights.

The bat-friendly lights in Nieuwkoop are networked and have energy-saving features like dynamic dimming(调光)and scheduling. Additionally, people there can also request changes in brightness to individual lights outside their homes. As an added bonus, the red lights also don’t attract insects.

"When developing our unique housing program, our goal was to make the project as sustainable as possible, while preserving our local bat species with little impact on their living place," Guus Elkhuizen, a city council member, said. "We’ve managed to do this and kept our carbon footprint and energy consumption to a minimum. I’m so proud."

32. What is the design of the bat-friendly LEDs based on?

A. The fact that bats are relatively fond of red.

B. The fact that bats are active mainly at night.

C. The fact that bats are insensitive to red light.

D. The fact that bats are easily affected by light.

33. What is the special feature of the new streetlights?

A. They are adjustable.       B. They are recyclable.

C. They are very cheap.      D. They are insect-friendly.

34. Why does Guus Elkhuizen feel so proud?

A. A big housing program has been designed.

B. A nature reserve has been built successfully.

C. Unique bat-friendly LEDs have been invented.

D. Progress has been made in the sustainable project.

35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. New streetlights are used to help bats.

B. The bat-friendly town turns the night red.

C. Man can live together with bats harmoniously.

D. Human beings should be friendly to nocturnal bats

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。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Housing swaps are becoming very popular for people who want to travel, but want to stay at a private home instead of a hotel. In this type of exchange, a person swaps his/her house with another person in an area he/she wishes to travel to.   36   In fact, apartments and even yachts (快艇)and recreational vehicles are exchanged as well.

In addition to a housing swap, you can choose a hospitality(好客)exchange in which people host guests in their home, and then are hosted later in their guests’ home.   37   For those interested in arranging a housing swap, there are websites that can facilitate(使便利)the exchange. The benefits of a housing swap are obvious. It is free, so you can save a lot of money.   38   Some prefer to stay at a private home over a hotel because it is more comfortable, and you can rest at ease knowing that someone is taking care of your home while you’re away.

   39   The exchange is built on mutual(相互的)trust between strangers, sometimes thousands of miles apart. So it is difficult to guarantee that the house you are interested in is accurately described and that the person will take care of your home while you’re away. When you leave your house, make sure that you leave specific instructions about the home and your expectations. Contact the post office to hold your mail and lock away your valuables. Do any yard maintenance(维护)and pay last-minute bills.   40  

A. A housing swap is not limited to houses.

B. Besides, it is more flexible and convenient.

C. There are also some drawbacks of a housing swap.

D. You’d better leave the house with a small thank-you gift.

E. Leave it in the same or better shape than it was in when you arrived.

F. This is a social arrangement that provides the opportunity to have a tour guide if you’re lucky.

G. It’s nice to leave a little welcome gift with information about the area and activities.
