一、阅读理解
If you are currently learning English, 1 highly recommend you check out the apps below.
Quizlet
When learning English, you probably have to memorize a lot of words. If you want to grow your vocabulary as fast as possible, a flashcard app like Quizlet is a great shortcut. With Quizlet, you can create a set of flashcards with new English words you are trying to learn, and practice typing them out until you know them by heart. It's a simple concept, but it's highly effective.
Spotify
Spotify is not a language learning app. But chances are that you already use it or a similar app for listening to music or podcasts（播客）, and one of the effective ways to study is combining something you already use into your existing habits. If Spotify is already on your phone, you can subscribe to some podcasts for English learners or download playlists of songs for learning English, or make your own.
Beelinguapp
Beelinguapp makes reading in English as convenient as possible. It shows you a text in your own language with the English translation side-by-side. Texts are short enough so that you can really dig into every word. They cover topics from fairytales, to science, to current news articles. There's even a "karaoke" feature where you can read along to audio, which helps you match up the English pronunciation with the English spellings.
Tandem
Tandem is a language exchange app which connects learners from all over the world. It can help you find a native English speaker who is trying to learn your native language, so you can swap language skills. If you only have five minutes to spare, you can simply exchange messages with a native English speaker. If you have more time, you can have a longer, digital language exchange" by sharing voice notes, or using video chat. It's a great way to test your English skills out with real people.

Shi developed an interest in handicraft (手工艺) when she was a child who often found herself alone at home. Out of boredom, she would play with paper, folding and cutting them into different shapes. This interest later developed into a passion, one that she decided to pursue by majoring in arts and design during her time in university. After graduation, however, she found herself working at a ship design company as she was unsure about what she wanted to do with her future. About a year later, the Shanghai Arts and Crafts Research Institute offered her a position in their paper-cutting department. Realizing that she still had a love for the handicraft, she made the career switch.
In 2010, Shi started learning paper-cutting from Xi Xiaoqin, an expert of paper cutting. Three years later, one of her works, The Fighting Fish, won the third place in a national competition. Six years later, Shi was named a Shanghai paper-cutting inheritor (继承人)and became the city’s “youngest inheritor” of the paper-cutting heritage. Over the past decade, Shi’s works have been exhibited in 23 exhibitions. Although Shi is already so skilled that she can create an animal pattern in 10 minutes, she continues to practice her skills every day. The reason is that she views paper-cutting as not just an art form, but also a form of learning about traditional Chinese culture. She thinks she has the responsibility to inherit this cultural treasure, and will make more efforts to attract people from different age groups and different fields to try paper-cutting.

In times of epidemic, with visitors restricted, many residents in nursing homes have felt lonely and separated from the world, so animals have become an especially important way to lift their spirits. At Senior Living Sobriety in Scotland, seniors recently got their very own puppy (幼犬).
Gracie is a tiny golden retriever (金毛寻回犬) who lives with Pam Little, the social service manager for Senior Living Society. Every day, Gracie goes to work with Pam, and her official job is to be sweet and adorable to everyone she meets. Needless to say, she is skilled at her day job! She has quickly become a beloved member of the family for the seniors who live there.
“We’ve seen a lot of changes since she came,” Pam said.“We’ve seen a lot of smiles and hugs. It’s giving them a lot to talk about apart from what they’ve seen in their daily life.”
Gracie now visits with about 30 old people each day. Pam stays with Gracie the whole time to make sure everything goes smoothly. The precious pup has been bridging the gap for many of these residents who have been missing their friends and family during the epidemic.
Experts say pets like Gracie provide many health benefits for seniors, including increased mental and physical activity. Having a dedicated in-house dog enables nursing home residents to get all the goodness that comes with having a pet — with none of the stress or responsibilities.
Puppy hugs are no doubt a way to put a smile on anyone’s face! These lucky residents get to watch Gracie grow up and be a big part of her life. More nursing homes are considering following suit on this trend.
8．Why do residents in nursing homes want animals to raise their spirits?
A．They don’t want to see visitors.
B．They wanted to raise their own puppy.
C．They are cut off from the outside world.
D．They suffer from serious health problems.
9．What can we learn about Gracie?
A．She always smiles. B．She has many skills.
C．She has changed a lot. D．She can be nice to everyone.
10．What benefit does Gracie bring to the seniors?
A．Increased safety. B．Chances to exercise.
C．Closer family ties. D．A sense of responsibility.
11．What can be inferred about the future from the text?
A．There will be less pet dogs.
B．There will be more nursing homes.
C．Puppies will become more intelligent.
D．Puppies will be introduced into other nursing homes.

Final exams are around the comer — but that won’t stop some teenagers putting in the least effort. This may be because their brains aren’t developed enough to properly assess how high the stakes (利害关系) are, and adapt their behaviour accordingly.
Catherine Insel, at Harvard University, and her team asked adolescents between the ages of 13 and 20 to play a game while monitoring their brains. In some rounds of the game,participants could earn 20 cents fora correct response, while an incorrect one would cost them 10 cents. But in rounds with higher stakes,correct responses were worth a dollar, and wrong answers lost the participants 50 cents.
The team found that while the older volunteers performed better in the high stakes rounds, the younger ones didn’t — their performance didn’t change in line with whether the stakes were low or high. And the older the volunteers were, the more improved their performance was.
When the team looked at the brain activity of the volunteers,they found that their ability to improve their performance was linked to how developed their brains were. A region in the brain, which continues to develop until we are at least 25 years old, seemed to be particularly important. The findings explain why some teenagers are so unconcerned when it comes to hazardous behaviors, such as driving too fast, for instance, especially when one of their friends is nearby.
Insel thinks schools should reconsider the way they test performance in teenagers. “This study suggests it’s not a good idea to evaluate school performance in a single final exam”, she says. A better idea would be to use a variety of smaller tests, conducted throughout the year.
It’s not all bad news for teens, though. Teenagers put the same amount of effort into tasks that aren’t “important”, and start to prefer hobbies to school. It could be a good thing, allowing teenagers to learn complex social skills, for example.
12．Why did the researchers set different bets in the game?
A．To teach how to make money.
B．To better monitor participants’ brains.
C．To show the varied risk levels of the game.
D．To meet the needs of different participants.
13．What does the underlined word “hazardous” probably mean?
A．Dangerous. B．Abusive.
C．Specific. D．Addictive.
14．What should be kept in mind while assessing students’ performance?
A．It should not be judged by only one exam.
B．The items in exams should not be too difficult.
C．Exam-focused education should not be adopted.
D．Examination is not a good means of evaluating students.
15．What is Insel’s attitude to teenagers’ putting effort into “unimportant” tasks?
A．Unclear. B．Favorable. C．Doubtful. D．Negative.


二、七选五
Are you sitting more than ever? 16 You’re probably sitting while reading this. Sometimes you sit when you are driving or attending a meeting. Other times you sit when you engage yourself in watching a movie or playing computer games. That’s undoubtedly a lot of sitting. The fact is, the amount of time spent sitting has increased over time. 17
We know sitting too much is bad, and most of us naturally feel a little guilty after a long-time TV watching. 18 A study on nearly 8,000 adults suggests that there’s a direct relationship between the time spent sitting and our risk of early death of any cause. As the total sitting time increases, so does the risk of early death.
“Sit less, move more” is what the Heart Association encourages us to do. 19 It is like telling someone to just ”exercise“ without telling them how. Exercise guidelines are always more practical. For example, the Center for Disease Control recommends adults do exercise for two hours and 30 minutes every week, plus muscle strengthening activities two or more days a week. We need similar guidelines for sitting.
20 “It would probably be like, for every 30 continuous minutes of sitting, stand up and move or walk for five minutes at a quick pace,” Diaz, the lead researcher said, adding that the study has put us a step closer to the satisfying guidelines. But more researches are needed to confirm their approach.
A．Now it’s time to get up and move around.
B．Take a moment to think about your sitting activities.
C．Health experts also suggest exercising on a daily basis.
D．But this guideline is just too simple and abstract to make a difference.
E．As of today, average adult will spend 56-86% of their daily time sitting.
F．But what exactly goes wrong when we park ourselves for nearly eight hours per day?
G．To make up for the weakness, a research team is working on a more specific guideline.

Price of a Miracle
Tess was an eight-year-old girl when she heard her mom and dad talking about her little brother, Andrew. All she knew was that he was very sick and they were completely out of money.
Only a very costly operation could save him now and it was looking like there was no one to lend them the money. She heard Dad say to her tearful mom with desperation, “Only a miracle can save him now.”
Tess went to her bedroom and poured all the change she had saved out on the floor and counted it carefully:47 cents. She slipped out of home and made her way to Rexall’s Drug Store. She waited patiently for the pharmacist to give her some attention but he was too busy at this moment. Finally, she took a quarter from her pocket and banged it on the glass counter. That did it ! “And what do you want?” the pharmacist asked in an annoyed tone of voice. “I’m talking to my brother from Chicago Medical University whom I haven’t seen in ages,” he said without waiting for a reply to his question.
“Well, I want to talk to you about my brother,” Tess answered back in the same annoyed tone. “He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a miracle.”
“We don’t sell miracles here, little girl. I’m sorry but I can’t help you,” the pharmacist said, softening a little. “Listen, I have the money to pay for it. If it isn’t enough, I will get the rest. Just tell me how much it costs.” Tess answered with a blind faith.
The pharmacist’s brother was a well-dressed man. He stooped down and asked the little girl, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?” “I don’t know,” Tess replied with her eyes welling up.
“I just know he’s really sick and Mom says he needs an operation. But my dad can’t pay for it, so I want to use my money.”

47．One possible version:
“How much do you have?” asked the man from Chicago. “47 cents!” Tess replied without any hesitation. To her surprise, the man said that he was a doctor and that it was a fair price for a miracle. Overcome with excitement, Tess grasped his hand, leading him to her home. With doubt and hope, Dad and Mom had Andrew checked by the man, who declared that he would perform an operation on the boy and promised it wouldn’t be long before he could pick himself up. Hearing his words, the whole family burst into tears of joy.
The operation was completed. Hardly had Andrew been sent back home when his parents went to thank the doctor with Tess, for they knew that 47 cents was a joke for an operation. They promised to save enough money to pay for the bill only to be told that Tess had paid for it. “It’s a fair deal,” the doctor explained to the parents，and then looked into Tess’s eyes, smiling, “47 cents was what it cost—plus the faith of a little girl.”
