Angela Guzman was born in Bogota, Colombia. At the age of 8, she moved to a tiny island in South Florida. The contrast was pretty vast. She didn’t speak any English, so she met with lots of challenges. At school, she would get stuck because she couldn’t understand or be understood. She thought, “Well, everyone understands a picture! Why don’t I start drawing to communicate?” That was what she did. She tried hard to create pictures to show her meanings exactly, and then she became known as the artist in the classroom, from third grade through her whole years of secondary schooling. Later she chose to study design in college.
When Angela began her work in a big company, she was tasked with designing emojis — the company’s very first. At first, she intended to refuse the task because she had no idea what the word meant and what emojis would be used for. Her mentor said that the emoji was an icon (图标), an image, or a type of illustration, sharing joy, surprise, anger, fear, sorrow, love and so on.
Angela then began to study microexpressions of humans and simplify or exaggerate (夸大) them in an illustrative manner. For example, the eyebrows make a V in anger and an upside down V in surprise. When she designed object emojis, she often turned to real-life items. She went to the party supply store, buying party poppers (派对烟花) to watch how the colorful paper pieces came out, and how light reflected off them. They were hard to capture, but Angela tried to make it.
Later, the tiny icons Angela and her mentor created were born and soon used by millions of people. When people praised Angela for her emoji design, she replied, “Actually, it’s an experience that teaches me a lot. One major thing is empathy (共鸣) for communities worldwide. I pay close attention to the symbolism of color and the cultural symbolism overall. I think the cultural questions are important. For example, how do we make sure that every culture, every accent, or every person that speaks to these devices feels included? That was something I struggled with early on. This kind of thinking allowed my mind to be inclusive and mindful of everyone who would use the product.”
24．What can we learn about Angela’s childhood?
A．She had a hidden talent for language.
B．She was always on the move with her family.
C．She often held views different from her classmates.
D．She was good at communicating through drawing.
25．How did Angela get inspiration for her emoji design?
A．By diving into real life. B．By referring to some popular emojis.
C．By gaining related knowledge of emojis. D．By seeking help from experienced people.
26．What mainly led to Angela’s success according to Paragraph 4?
A．Her mentor guided her in every detail. B．Her design was inclusive of varied cultures.
C．She introduced color elements to her works. D．She had a thoughtful attitude towards the poor.
27．Which of the following can best describe Angela?
A．Adventurous and kind. B．Devoted and creative.
C．Generous and positive. D．Humorous and considerate.
C
Most people often listen to music near bedtime to relax. But can that actually cause your sleep to suffer? When sleep researcher Michael Scullin realized that he was waking in the middle of the night with a song stuck in his head, he saw an opportunity. He decided to study a rarely-explored mechanism (机制): how music—and particularly songs stuck in one’s head—might affect sleep patterns.
Scullin said, “Everyone knows that music listening feels good. Young adults routinely listen to music near bedtime. Thus, they are easy to experience ‘earworms’ —involuntary musical imagery. It’s a condition where a song or tune will replay over and over in our mind, and our brains continue to process music even when none is playing, including apparently while we are asleep.”
Scullin’s recent study included a survey and a laboratory experiment. The survey involved 209 participants who completed a series of surveys on sleep quality, music listening habits and earworm frequency. In the 50-participant experimental study, the research team played three popular and catchy songs before bedtime. They randomly assigned participants to listen to the original versions of those songs or the instrumental versions of the songs. And then they used polysomnography (PSG) — a comprehensive test of sleep—to record the participants’ brain waves, heart rates, breathing and more while they were sleeping.
The study showed that people who experience earworms regularly at night are six times as likely to have poor sleep quality as people who rarely experience earworms. “Almost everyone thought music improves sleep but we have found that those who listen to more music sleep worse,” Scullin said. “What’s really surprising is that instrumental music leads to worse sleep quality, including greater difficulty falling asleep, more nighttime awakenings, and more time in light stages of sleep. And instrumental music leads to about twice as many earworms.”
To get rid of an earworm, engaging in cognitive (认知的) activity—fully focusing on a task, helps to distract your brain from earworms if you don’t want to totally quit your music hobbies (listening to less music before bed is still encouraged). A previous study found that participants who spent five minutes writing down upcoming tasks before bed slept better.
28．What’s the focus of Scullin’s study?
A．The characteristics of fine music.
B．The categories of people’s sleep patterns.
C．The relationship between music listening and sleep.
D．The development of the musical education mechanism.
29．Which of the following can best describe the “earworm” phenomenon?
A．People get stuck in the mental imagery of musical repetition.
B．People are particularly fond of a piece of music or tune.
C．People tend to sing a song without realizing it.
D．People rely on certain music to fall asleep.
30．What were the participants asked to do during the study?
A．Listen to the same versions of the songs.
B．Pick their favorite songs before bedtime.
C．Use the PSG method to improve sleep quality.
D．Offer some personal information and take a sleep test.
31．Which view would Scullin probably agree on?
A．Earworm sufferers are usually sound sleepers.
B．Earworms are not related to bringing about sleeplessness.
C．People should listen to more gentle music before sleep.
D．People should try to avoid instrumental music near bedtime.
D
Canaries (small yellow songbirds) are more sensitive to carbon monoxide (CO) than people are. Thus they were routinely taken into mines as men went about their work of mining for coal. CO could quickly poison many miners before they even knew what was happening. If a Canary stopped singing, this was an indicator of rising CO levels. Now ecologists think they’ve found a “canary” that could predict possible disaster for tropical (热带的) ecosystems—the cricket (a small brown jumping insect).
Crickets are tiny, present in large numbers and, most importantly, noisy. The chirps (唧唧叫声) of individual species are identifiably different. Researchers had previously wondered if ecosystems might be monitored by listening to how the sounds of their crickets change over time.
Amandine Gasc and her colleagues studied cricket populations on Grande Terre Island in New Caledonia, where multiple ecosystems often exist very near to each other. They collected crickets at 12 sampling sites. Four were healthy forest sites, four were shrubland (灌木地) areas, of the sort that is often created when people cut down forests, and four were shrubland areas that were turning into forests again. They listened for insects in square zones and ran ten 30-minute collection sessions (five in the day and five at night) at each site.
Dr. Gasc described how each ecosystem had, in effect, a distinct “cricket fingerprint”. Species richness varied considerably among the different environments. Of the 20 cricket species found in the healthy forest, 12 were unique to that habitat alone, 2 of the 15 species found in transitioning forests were unique to this habitat and 3 of the 7 shrubland species were unique to shrubland.
Just by looking at the crickets found in a given location, the team found that it was possible to determine whether they were looking at shrubland, forest or shrubland that was changing into the forest. There was no need to examine the other surrounding plants or animals.
What’s more, Dr.Gasc’s team found each habitat contained cricket species that generated their identifiable chirps. This suggests that setting up audio recorders in forests that pick up cricket calls will be an easy, cheap and accurate way to detect the early stages of change in tropical ecosystems.
32．Why did miners take the canary into mines?
A．To bring down CO levels. B．To promote their work efficiency.
C．To offer them some entertainment. D．To remind them of the potential danger.
33．How did Dr.Gasc and her colleagues carry out their study?
A．By analyzing “cricket fingerprints”. B．By comparing plants in different zones.
C．By observing the changes in landscapes. D．By referring to previous findings on crickets.
34．What conclusion may Dr.Gasc and her colleagues draw from their study?
A．Healthy forests may attract fitter crickets.
B．Crickets are suitable to be indicators in mines.
C．Different species of crickets may sound different alarms.
D．The species of crickets are strongly related to the environment.
35．which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A．Canaries: miners’ good helpers
B．How crickets are distributed in tropical areas
C．Crickets: an early indicator of tropical ecosystem health
D．Why cricket chirps are collected on Grande Terre Island

Brainstorming is a method for thinking of ideas and creating plans through open discussion, usually in a group setting. 36 It encourages people to consider all possibilities and become more creative. The process lets team members develop the best solution to a problem. Well, how can we brainstorm effectively?
Visualize your goal. Keep to the point during your brainstorming session by having a visual representation of your goal. Think about your ideal outcome or purpose. 36 Every time you see it, it can remind you of the original point of the conversation, allowing you and others to adjust your focus and remain productive.
38 During a brainstorming session, focus on listing as many thoughts and ideas as you can. Instead of thinking of a few in-depth ideas, try to produce many simple ideas that you can work on later. Having a large number of ideas from a brainstorming session can provide you with a useful outline for future projects and allow you to recognize which ideas have the most potential.
Document the discussion. Because brainstorming involves quickly producing multiple ideas, documentation can help you reference them later and analyze the full scope of the discussion. How can you effectively document your brainstorming session? Use an audio (录音的) recorder to record words. Write down detailed notes. 39
Schedule multiple brainstorming sessions. This gives you time between meetings to do additional research and planning, giving you ideas for future sessions and making them more productive. It also helps prevent creative burnout, allowing you to return to your ideas with a fresh view. 40 You can do the activity every Friday, for example.
A．Share inspiration.
B．Promote a variety of ideas.
C．Brainstorming can be important.
D．Express your thoughts and ideas bravely.
E．Then write it down in an eye-catching spot.
F．So, if necessary, brainstorm on a regular basis.
G．You can even photograph certain information to better understand it.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A freezing rain washed the street in front of the small-town bar. I sat staring at the watery darkness, alone as usual. I had been in that old pub for a half hour, quietly holding a drink, when my thoughful stare finally focused on a medium-sized lump (一团) in a puddle (水洼) a hundred feet away.
I remembered the night before, a dog named Shep came into the bar begging for potato chips. He was starving and just the size of the lump. “Why would a dog lie in a cold puddle in the freezing rain?” I asked myself. The answer was simple: He was too weak to get up.
The shrapnel (弹片) wound in my right shoulder ached all the way down to my fingers. I didn’t want to go out in that storm. Hey, it was，t my dog. It was just a stray (流浪的动物) on a cold night in the rain, a lonely drifter (流浪者).
“So am I,” I thought, as I laid down my drink and headed out the door.
He was lying in the water. When I touched him, he didn’t move. I thought he was dead. I put my hands around his chest and lifted him to his feet. He stood unsteadily in the puddle, his head hung like a weight at the end of his neck. Half his body was covered with mange (兽疥癣). His floppy ear were just hairless pieces of flesh dotted with open sores (疮).
“Come on,” I said. His tail wagged once and he followed weekly behind me. I led him to a safer comer next to the bar, where he lay on the cold ground and closed his eyes.
A block away I could see the lights of a late-night convenience store. It was still open. I bought three cans of Alpo and fed him. But his tongue hung out and only the tip of his tail moved. 1 wanted to pet him, but he smelled like death and looked even worse. The local vet (兽医) was still at his office, so I loaded the poor dog into a taxi and headed there.
注意：1．所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2．按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The vet checked the pitiful dog immediately. ___________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________________________
I sighed loudly and said, “He’s got a home.” ___________________________________________________

Angela Guzman was born in Bogota, Colombia. At the age of 8, she moved to a tiny island in South Florida. The contrast was pretty vast. She didn’t speak any English, so she met with lots of challenges. At school, she would get stuck because she couldn’t understand or be understood. She thought, “Well, everyone understands a picture! Why don’t I start drawing to communicate?” That was what she did. She tried hard to create pictures to show her meanings exactly, and then she became known as the artist in the classroom, from third grade through her whole years of secondary schooling. Later she chose to study design in college.
When Angela began her work in a big company, she was tasked with designing emojis — the company’s very first. At first, she intended to refuse the task because she had no idea what the word meant and what emojis would be used for. Her mentor said that the emoji was an icon (图标), an image, or a type of illustration, sharing joy, surprise, anger, fear, sorrow, love and so on.
Angela then began to study microexpressions of humans and simplify or exaggerate (夸大) them in an illustrative manner. For example, the eyebrows make a V in anger and an upside down V in surprise. When she designed object emojis, she often turned to real-life items. She went to the party supply store, buying party poppers (派对烟花) to watch how the colorful paper pieces came out, and how light reflected off them. They were hard to capture, but Angela tried to make it.
Later, the tiny icons Angela and her mentor created were born and soon used by millions of people. When people praised Angela for her emoji design, she replied, “Actually, it’s an experience that teaches me a lot. One major thing is empathy (共鸣) for communities worldwide. I pay close attention to the symbolism of color and the cultural symbolism overall. I think the cultural questions are important. For example, how do we make sure that every culture, every accent, or every person that speaks to these devices feels included? That was something I struggled with early on. This kind of thinking allowed my mind to be inclusive and mindful of everyone who would use the product.”
24．What can we learn about Angela’s childhood?
A．She had a hidden talent for language.
B．She was always on the move with her family.
C．She often held views different from her classmates.
D．She was good at communicating through drawing.
25．How did Angela get inspiration for her emoji design?
A．By diving into real life. B．By referring to some popular emojis.
C．By gaining related knowledge of emojis. D．By seeking help from experienced people.
26．What mainly led to Angela’s success according to Paragraph 4?
A．Her mentor guided her in every detail. B．Her design was inclusive of varied cultures.
C．She introduced color elements to her works. D．She had a thoughtful attitude towards the poor.
27．Which of the following can best describe Angela?
A．Adventurous and kind. B．Devoted and creative.
C．Generous and positive. D．Humorous and considerate.
C
Most people often listen to music near bedtime to relax. But can that actually cause your sleep to suffer? When sleep researcher Michael Scullin realized that he was waking in the middle of the night with a song stuck in his head, he saw an opportunity. He decided to study a rarely-explored mechanism (机制): how music—and particularly songs stuck in one’s head—might affect sleep patterns.
Scullin said, “Everyone knows that music listening feels good. Young adults routinely listen to music near bedtime. Thus, they are easy to experience ‘earworms’ —involuntary musical imagery. It’s a condition where a song or tune will replay over and over in our mind, and our brains continue to process music even when none is playing, including apparently while we are asleep.”
Scullin’s recent study included a survey and a laboratory experiment. The survey involved 209 participants who completed a series of surveys on sleep quality, music listening habits and earworm frequency. In the 50-participant experimental study, the research team played three popular and catchy songs before bedtime. They randomly assigned participants to listen to the original versions of those songs or the instrumental versions of the songs. And then they used polysomnography (PSG) — a comprehensive test of sleep—to record the participants’ brain waves, heart rates, breathing and more while they were sleeping.
The study showed that people who experience earworms regularly at night are six times as likely to have poor sleep quality as people who rarely experience earworms. “Almost everyone thought music improves sleep but we have found that those who listen to more music sleep worse,” Scullin said. “What’s really surprising is that instrumental music leads to worse sleep quality, including greater difficulty falling asleep, more nighttime awakenings, and more time in light stages of sleep. And instrumental music leads to about twice as many earworms.”
To get rid of an earworm, engaging in cognitive (认知的) activity—fully focusing on a task, helps to distract your brain from earworms if you don’t want to totally quit your music hobbies (listening to less music before bed is still encouraged). A previous study found that participants who spent five minutes writing down upcoming tasks before bed slept better.
28．What’s the focus of Scullin’s study?
A．The characteristics of fine music.
B．The categories of people’s sleep patterns.
C．The relationship between music listening and sleep.
D．The development of the musical education mechanism.
29．Which of the following can best describe the “earworm” phenomenon?
A．People get stuck in the mental imagery of musical repetition.
B．People are particularly fond of a piece of music or tune.
C．People tend to sing a song without realizing it.
D．People rely on certain music to fall asleep.
30．What were the participants asked to do during the study?
A．Listen to the same versions of the songs.
B．Pick their favorite songs before bedtime.
C．Use the PSG method to improve sleep quality.
D．Offer some personal information and take a sleep test.
31．Which view would Scullin probably agree on?
A．Earworm sufferers are usually sound sleepers.
B．Earworms are not related to bringing about sleeplessness.
C．People should listen to more gentle music before sleep.
D．People should try to avoid instrumental music near bedtime.
D
Canaries (small yellow songbirds) are more sensitive to carbon monoxide (CO) than people are. Thus they were routinely taken into mines as men went about their work of mining for coal. CO could quickly poison many miners before they even knew what was happening. If a Canary stopped singing, this was an indicator of rising CO levels. Now ecologists think they’ve found a “canary” that could predict possible disaster for tropical (热带的) ecosystems—the cricket (a small brown jumping insect).
Crickets are tiny, present in large numbers and, most importantly, noisy. The chirps (唧唧叫声) of individual species are identifiably different. Researchers had previously wondered if ecosystems might be monitored by listening to how the sounds of their crickets change over time.
Amandine Gasc and her colleagues studied cricket populations on Grande Terre Island in New Caledonia, where multiple ecosystems often exist very near to each other. They collected crickets at 12 sampling sites. Four were healthy forest sites, four were shrubland (灌木地) areas, of the sort that is often created when people cut down forests, and four were shrubland areas that were turning into forests again. They listened for insects in square zones and ran ten 30-minute collection sessions (five in the day and five at night) at each site.
Dr. Gasc described how each ecosystem had, in effect, a distinct “cricket fingerprint”. Species richness varied considerably among the different environments. Of the 20 cricket species found in the healthy forest, 12 were unique to that habitat alone, 2 of the 15 species found in transitioning forests were unique to this habitat and 3 of the 7 shrubland species were unique to shrubland.
Just by looking at the crickets found in a given location, the team found that it was possible to determine whether they were looking at shrubland, forest or shrubland that was changing into the forest. There was no need to examine the other surrounding plants or animals.
What’s more, Dr.Gasc’s team found each habitat contained cricket species that generated their identifiable chirps. This suggests that setting up audio recorders in forests that pick up cricket calls will be an easy, cheap and accurate way to detect the early stages of change in tropical ecosystems.
32．Why did miners take the canary into mines?
A．To bring down CO levels. B．To promote their work efficiency.
C．To offer them some entertainment. D．To remind them of the potential danger.
33．How did Dr.Gasc and her colleagues carry out their study?
A．By analyzing “cricket fingerprints”. B．By comparing plants in different zones.
C．By observing the changes in landscapes. D．By referring to previous findings on crickets.
34．What conclusion may Dr.Gasc and her colleagues draw from their study?
A．Healthy forests may attract fitter crickets.
B．Crickets are suitable to be indicators in mines.
C．Different species of crickets may sound different alarms.
D．The species of crickets are strongly related to the environment.
35．which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A．Canaries: miners’ good helpers
B．How crickets are distributed in tropical areas
C．Crickets: an early indicator of tropical ecosystem health
D．Why cricket chirps are collected on Grande Terre Island

Brainstorming is a method for thinking of ideas and creating plans through open discussion, usually in a group setting. 36 It encourages people to consider all possibilities and become more creative. The process lets team members develop the best solution to a problem. Well, how can we brainstorm effectively?
Visualize your goal. Keep to the point during your brainstorming session by having a visual representation of your goal. Think about your ideal outcome or purpose. 36 Every time you see it, it can remind you of the original point of the conversation, allowing you and others to adjust your focus and remain productive.
38 During a brainstorming session, focus on listing as many thoughts and ideas as you can. Instead of thinking of a few in-depth ideas, try to produce many simple ideas that you can work on later. Having a large number of ideas from a brainstorming session can provide you with a useful outline for future projects and allow you to recognize which ideas have the most potential.
Document the discussion. Because brainstorming involves quickly producing multiple ideas, documentation can help you reference them later and analyze the full scope of the discussion. How can you effectively document your brainstorming session? Use an audio (录音的) recorder to record words. Write down detailed notes. 39
Schedule multiple brainstorming sessions. This gives you time between meetings to do additional research and planning, giving you ideas for future sessions and making them more productive. It also helps prevent creative burnout, allowing you to return to your ideas with a fresh view. 40 You can do the activity every Friday, for example.
A．Share inspiration.
B．Promote a variety of ideas.
C．Brainstorming can be important.
D．Express your thoughts and ideas bravely.
E．Then write it down in an eye-catching spot.
F．So, if necessary, brainstorm on a regular basis.
G．You can even photograph certain information to better understand it.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A freezing rain washed the street in front of the small-town bar. I sat staring at the watery darkness, alone as usual. I had been in that old pub for a half hour, quietly holding a drink, when my thoughful stare finally focused on a medium-sized lump (一团) in a puddle (水洼) a hundred feet away.
I remembered the night before, a dog named Shep came into the bar begging for potato chips. He was starving and just the size of the lump. “Why would a dog lie in a cold puddle in the freezing rain?” I asked myself. The answer was simple: He was too weak to get up.
The shrapnel (弹片) wound in my right shoulder ached all the way down to my fingers. I didn’t want to go out in that storm. Hey, it was，t my dog. It was just a stray (流浪的动物) on a cold night in the rain, a lonely drifter (流浪者).
“So am I,” I thought, as I laid down my drink and headed out the door.
He was lying in the water. When I touched him, he didn’t move. I thought he was dead. I put my hands around his chest and lifted him to his feet. He stood unsteadily in the puddle, his head hung like a weight at the end of his neck. Half his body was covered with mange (兽疥癣). His floppy ear were just hairless pieces of flesh dotted with open sores (疮).
“Come on,” I said. His tail wagged once and he followed weekly behind me. I led him to a safer comer next to the bar, where he lay on the cold ground and closed his eyes.
A block away I could see the lights of a late-night convenience store. It was still open. I bought three cans of Alpo and fed him. But his tongue hung out and only the tip of his tail moved. 1 wanted to pet him, but he smelled like death and looked even worse. The local vet (兽医) was still at his office, so I loaded the poor dog into a taxi and headed there.
注意：1．所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2．按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The vet checked the pitiful dog immediately. ___________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________________________
I sighed loudly and said, “He’s got a home.” ___________________________________________________
