Tejada als pineered fashin design fr peple with Dwn syndrme. She said, “It is difficult fr peple like me t find suitable clthes. We can be shrter r weaker. That’s why I decided t design clthes that wuld be perfect fr peple with Dwn syndrme.”
Tejada has created her brand, Dwn t Xjabelle. The new brand tk ff right away. It made it all the way t Lndn Fashin Week. And the great designer has plans fr the future as well.

Fragile. Oversensitive. Glued t their phnes. Is this what cmes t mind when we think f the teens f this generatin? While this may be true, there might be mre t this generatin f teens than what is generally perceived.
Never befre have the lives f any generatin f teens been as flded with mbile technlgy and scial media as the teens f this generatin. The ppularity f scial media has led t a wrld in which teens have t participate in Instagram, TikTk and Twitter, r else cause the scial anger f their friends, sme f whm cmmunicate primarily via thse nline platfrms. As cmpared t their parents r grandparents wh were likely less cnnected and mre islated, these teens are cnstantly expsed t the highlight reels（高光时刻） f many in their scial circles and beynd. It is n wnder that the self-esteem and mental health f this generatin’s teens have taken a hit.
Mrever, the teens tday are mre individualistic. This is in cntrast t the kampng spirit f their parents’ and grandparents’ days. Gne is the friendship amng neighburs wh are friendly with ne anther and quick t ffer a helping hand when they seeanther in need. In its place, we have teens wh may nt even have a clue as t wh lives in the unit next t theirs, much less ffer a friendly n d r wave when they happen t crss paths with a neighbur.
Yet, the effects f technlgy n this generatin f teens are nt all bad. Arguably, the very cnnectedness that scial media brings abut has led t being mre prgressive. Lgging nt platfrms where peple f all walks f life gather means that ne isexpsed t thse peple and their distinctive ways f life. In cmparisn, the parents r grandparents f this generatin f teens prbably did nt have the same pprtunity t get t knw peple utside f their scial circles at their age, and are thus mre likely t have fixed, steretypical（刻板的） pinins f peple different frm them. This generatin f teens, n the ther hand, has the chance t use this technlgy t understand the variety and diversity ut there.
28．What des the underlined phrase “have taken a hit” mean in Paragraph 2?
A．Have been terribly hurt.B．Have imprved a lt
C．Have recvered sn.D．Have been ignred.
29．Which belngs t the kampng spirit accrding t Paragraph 3?
A．Telephne yur parents regularly.B．Never say Hi t yur classmates.
C．Sha re yur fd with neighburs.D．Brrw mney frm yur teacher
30．What gd effect des scial media have n the teens?
A．They are mre ambitius and active.
B．They are mre friendly and generus.
C．They are mre independent f their parents.
D．They are mre pen-minded and better infrmed.
31．Hw is the text develped?
A．By giving examples.B．By shwing statistics.
C．By making cmparisns.D．By prviding instructins.

Pretending sickness may get harder. Slipping a day ff wrk by nervusly cughing dwn the phne t yur bss might nt wrk. Very sn yur cmpany might be able t tell whether yur symptms are real, just frm yur vice.
An Indian research team tried t tell a “cld vice” frm a healthy vice. Their research makes use f the fact that human speech, like any musical instrument, des nt prduce single frequencies f sunds. Even the best trained singers cannt hit pure ntes like thse frm tuning frks. The dminant ntes in the human vice are instead accmpanied by a series f higher pitch（音高） tnes.
Tgether these sets f ntes fit int mathematical patterns called harmnics（和声）, with tneshaving frequencies that are multiples f the riginal nte. Fr example, the pitch f the secnd harmnic nte is twice the frequency f the main nte and s n. The ludness f these harmnics in speech tends-t fa de as they prceed up the frequency scale. The team reasned that infectin with a cld might change hw this decline happened.
T find ut, the scientists made use f an unusual resurce: recrdings f the vices f 630peple in Germany, 111 f whm were suffering frm a cld. Each was asked t cunt frm ne t 40 and describe what they did at the weekend. They als read alud a fable The Nrth Wind and the Sun, which has been a ppular text fr speech research since 1949．By breaking dwn each persn’s speech int its spectrum（声谱） f cmpnent wavelengths, the researchers culd identify the dminant frequency and the harmnics in each case. They then used machine-learning t analyse the relatinships between the ludness f these harmnics and fund patterns that culd distinguish the cld vices frm the healthy vices.
The team’s diagnsis f cld vice shws a 70% accuracy. Faced with anther dull Mnday at the ffice, wuld yu take the risk?
32．On what basis is the research perfrmed?
A．Human speeches vary in frequencies.B．Training has n effect n human ntes.
C．Humans speak like musical instruments.D．Higher pitch ntes dminate human vices.
33．What may reduce the vlume f human harmnics?
A．The pitch f harmnics.B．A pretended cld vice.
C．The sets f human ntes.D．Higher sund frequencies.
34．Why are the participants required t read the fable?
A．It is easy t understand.B．It is valuable in literature.
C．It is ppular with speakers.D．It is suitable fr the research.
35．What des the authr want t tell us?
A．Human speech reflects healthB．Pretending sickness is a trend.
C．Vice changes with cnditins.D．Changing vice is f great risk.

Radar is an electrnic device that detects planes, ships, castlines, landmarks, and even strm cluds. The name radar cmes frm the first letters f the wrds “radi directin and ranging”. As the human eye uses light waves t see, radar “sees” with radi waves. Withut radar, planes culd nt land safely in bad weather and ships culd nt mve safely in thick fg. 36
In the 1800s it was discvered that radi waves culd be reflected frm bjects. But scientists did nt make great advances in radar research until the 1930s, when the wrld was threatened by war. 37 It has been used widely in almst every cnflict（冲突） since then.
Eches make it pssible fr radar t wrk. When a beam f radi waves is sent ut, it strikes an bject and returns an ech. This ech is picked up by radar and recrded n a screen similar t televisin screens. On the screen an bserver sees a flash and that can shw the directin and distance f the bject. 38
Airprt cntrl twers use radar t guide planes in fr safe landings. Almst all large ships depend n radar t prevent cllisins with icebergs r ther ships. 39 Weather frecasters “see” the size, directin, and speed f strms n radar screens. Astrnmers can even use radar t measure accurately the distance frm the earth t the mn. Thus, the device has helped achieve majr advancements.
40 It guards us against pssible enemy attacks. We have ballistic missile（弹道导弹）warning systems that can warn us against attacks when missiles are mre than 1,000 miles away. Other radar systems can als warn us against enemy aircraft and even spying space satellites.
A．The measurement is nw highly accurate.
B．Plice track speeders in radar-equipped cars.
C．The device can be used in a wide range f fields.
D．It is therefre especially valuable t shippers and travelers.
E．During Wrld War II many cuntries used radar effectively.
F．Tday radar is used by cmmercial airliners and weather frecasters.
G．Strengthening natinal defense is ne f radar’s mst imprtant functins.

When I was in middle schl, my family mved t Seattle, where my parents started their new business--a small grcery stre dwnstairs my huse. As a girl f shy and reserved nature, I had t take a fresh start t fit int the sphisticated city life.
One sunny day, my schl annunced an exciting event, a talent shw fr the lcal fd bank. Students were encuraged t shwcase their unique talents in frnt f the public in the city hall n Natinal Day.

Dear David,
Having review ed yur initial draft fr the pster design cmpetitin n “Prtecting Wildlife”, I’m writing t ffer sme suggestins fr imprvement.
Yur design seems t lack a message that can mtivate peple t take actin. Additinally, the quality f the images and the cluttered layut need t be imprved.
Therefre, I suggest yu use a cncise and cnvincing message and high-quality images relevant t the theme. Meanwhile, yu’d better simplify the layut by remving sme unnecessary elements that distract attentin frm the message.
I hpe my feedback is helpful. Best f luck with yur design.

After having a brief idea f my stry, she said in a fi rm tne, “Yu’ve wrked s hard. Yu can make it n yur wn.” Memries f cuntless rehearsal came flding back, drwning my fears and lsses. Swinging int actin, I adjusted my perfrmance t a sl, practicing in n time.

I pured my emtins int the perfrmance, letting my vice carry my feelings int the air. The crwd watched in awe, their applause and cheers eching in the hall.

She fell in lve with traditinal Guatemalan patterns and clrs. She explained, “I’m lucky t wrk with traditinal clth, inspired by ur culture and representing ur cuntry.”
Tejada als pineered fashin design fr peple with Dwn syndrme. She said, “It is difficult fr peple like me t find suitable clthes. We can be shrter r weaker. That’s why I decided t design clthes that wuld be perfect fr peple with Dwn syndrme.”
Tejada has created her brand, Dwn t Xjabelle. The new brand tk ff right away. It made it all the way t Lndn Fashin Week. And the great designer has plans fr the future as well. Tejada said, “I want peple all ver the wrld t knw my designs and t knw that peple with Dwn syndrme can d what they set ut t d. I want t be able t live n my wn.”

Fragile. Oversensitive. Glued t their phnes. Is this what cmes t mind when we think f the teens f this generatin? While this may be true, there might be mre t this generatin f teens than what is generally perceived.
Never befre have the lives f any generatin f teens been as flded with mbile technlgy and scial media as the teens f this generatin. The ppularity f scial media has led t a wrld in which teens have t participate in Instagram, TikTk and Twitter, r else cause the scial anger f their friends, sme f whm cmmunicate primarily via thse nline platfrms. As cmpared t their parents r grandparents wh were likely less cnnected and mre islated, these teens are cnstantly expsed t the highlight reels（高光时刻） f many in their scial circles and beynd. It is n wnder that the self-esteem and mental health f this generatin’s teens have taken a hit.
Mrever, the teens tday are mre individualistic. This is in cntrast t the kampng spirit f their parents’ and grandparents’ days. Gne is the friendship amng neighburs wh are friendly with ne anther and quick t ffer a helping hand when they seeanther in need. In its place, we have teens wh may nt even have a clue as t wh lives in the unit next t theirs, much less ffer a friendly n d r wave when they happen t crss paths with a neighbur.
Yet, the effects f technlgy n this generatin f teens are nt all bad. Arguably, the very cnnectedness that scial media brings abut has led t being mre prgressive. Lgging nt platfrms where peple f all walks f life gather means that ne isexpsed t thse peple and their distinctive ways f life. In cmparisn, the parents r grandparents f this generatin f teens prbably did nt have the same pprtunity t get t knw peple utside f their scial circles at their age, and are thus mre likely t have fixed, steretypical（刻板的） pinins f peple different frm them. This generatin f teens, n the ther hand, has the chance t use this technlgy t understand the variety and diversity ut there.
28．What des the underlined phrase “have taken a hit” mean in Paragraph 2?
A．Have been terribly hurt.B．Have imprved a lt
C．Have recvered sn.D．Have been ignred.
29．Which belngs t the kampng spirit accrding t Paragraph 3?
A．Telephne yur parents regularly.B．Never say Hi t yur classmates.
C．Sha re yur fd with neighburs.D．Brrw mney frm yur teacher
30．What gd effect des scial media have n the teens?
A．They are mre ambitius and active.
B．They are mre friendly and generus.
C．They are mre independent f their parents.
D．They are mre pen-minded and better infrmed.
31．Hw is the text develped?
A．By giving examples.B．By shwing statistics.
C．By making cmparisns.D．By prviding instructins.

Pretending sickness may get harder. Slipping a day ff wrk by nervusly cughing dwn the phne t yur bss might nt wrk. Very sn yur cmpany might be able t tell whether yur symptms are real, just frm yur vice.
An Indian research team tried t tell a “cld vice” frm a healthy vice. Their research makes use f the fact that human speech, like any musical instrument, des nt prduce single frequencies f sunds. Even the best trained singers cannt hit pure ntes like thse frm tuning frks. The dminant ntes in the human vice are instead accmpanied by a series f higher pitch（音高） tnes.
Tgether these sets f ntes fit int mathematical patterns called harmnics（和声）, with tneshaving frequencies that are multiples f the riginal nte. Fr example, the pitch f the secnd harmnic nte is twice the frequency f the main nte and s n. The ludness f these harmnics in speech tends-t fa de as they prceed up the frequency scale. The team reasned that infectin with a cld might change hw this decline happened.
T find ut, the scientists made use f an unusual resurce: recrdings f the vices f 630peple in Germany, 111 f whm were suffering frm a cld. Each was asked t cunt frm ne t 40 and describe what they did at the weekend. They als read alud a fable The Nrth Wind and the Sun, which has been a ppular text fr speech research since 1949．By breaking dwn each persn’s speech int its spectrum（声谱） f cmpnent wavelengths, the researchers culd identify the dminant frequency and the harmnics in each case. They then used machine-learning t analyse the relatinships between the ludness f these harmnics and fund patterns that culd distinguish the cld vices frm the healthy vices.
The team’s diagnsis f cld vice shws a 70% accuracy. Faced with anther dull Mnday at the ffice, wuld yu take the risk?
32．On what basis is the research perfrmed?
A．Human speeches vary in frequencies.B．Training has n effect n human ntes.
C．Humans speak like musical instruments.D．Higher pitch ntes dminate human vices.
33．What may reduce the vlume f human harmnics?
A．The pitch f harmnics.B．A pretended cld vice.
C．The sets f human ntes.D．Higher sund frequencies.
34．Why are the participants required t read the fable?
A．It is easy t understand.B．It is valuable in literature.
C．It is ppular with speakers.D．It is suitable fr the research.
35．What des the authr want t tell us?
A．Human speech reflects healthB．Pretending sickness is a trend.
C．Vice changes with cnditins.D．Changing vice is f great risk.

Radar is an electrnic device that detects planes, ships, castlines, landmarks, and even strm cluds. The name radar cmes frm the first letters f the wrds “radi directin and ranging”. As the human eye uses light waves t see, radar “sees” with radi waves. Withut radar, planes culd nt land safely in bad weather and ships culd nt mve safely in thick fg. 36
In the 1800s it was discvered that radi waves culd be reflected frm bjects. But scientists did nt make great advances in radar research until the 1930s, when the wrld was threatened by war. 37 It has been used widely in almst every cnflict（冲突） since then.
Eches make it pssible fr radar t wrk. When a beam f radi waves is sent ut, it strikes an bject and returns an ech. This ech is picked up by radar and recrded n a screen similar t televisin screens. On the screen an bserver sees a flash and that can shw the directin and distance f the bject. 38
Airprt cntrl twers use radar t guide planes in fr safe landings. Almst all large ships depend n radar t prevent cllisins with icebergs r ther ships. 39 Weather frecasters “see” the size, directin, and speed f strms n radar screens. Astrnmers can even use radar t measure accurately the distance frm the earth t the mn. Thus, the device has helped achieve majr advancements.
40 It guards us against pssible enemy attacks. We have ballistic missile（弹道导弹）warning systems that can warn us against attacks when missiles are mre than 1,000 miles away. Other radar systems can als warn us against enemy aircraft and even spying space satellites.
A．The measurement is nw highly accurate.
B．Plice track speeders in radar-equipped cars.
C．The device can be used in a wide range f fields.
D．It is therefre especially valuable t shippers and travelers.
E．During Wrld War II many cuntries used radar effectively.
F．Tday radar is used by cmmercial airliners and weather frecasters.
G．Strengthening natinal defense is ne f radar’s mst imprtant functins.

When I was in middle schl, my family mved t Seattle, where my parents started their new business--a small grcery stre dwnstairs my huse. As a girl f shy and reserved nature, I had t take a fresh start t fit int the sphisticated city life.
One sunny day, my schl annunced an exciting event, a talent shw fr the lcal fd bank. Students were encuraged t shwcase their unique talents in frnt f the public in the city hall n Natinal Day. A buzz f excitement filled the schl as everyne began preparing fr the big day. Deep dwn, I felt a spark f curisity and a desire t participate. Hwever, my self-dubt held me back, “I dn’t have any special skills t share.”
Days turned int weeks, and the talent shw drew clser. I culdn’t shake the upsetting feeling until ne day Emma, ne f the mst ppular girls in my class, came t me while I was helping in the grcery stre after class. “Hw abut singing tgether in the talent shw?” She grinned, “I heard yu singing a tune, alng the way back hme. I can’t help fllwing yu here.” Gsh, I culdn’t believe my ears. Emma, with persnality and ppularity, acknwledged my little talent. Since Emma had the wrld’s prettiest vice, I felt like being favured by frtune.
“Yu tw? The talent shw fr the fd bank?” My mum bent twards us and her face lit up. “Abig ccasin.” Then a light bulb seemed t g in her head. “Why nt practise right nw upstairs? I bet yu’ll be a perfect match.” Winking at us, she seemed t knw we were thinking alike.
Emma and I embarked n rehearsing almst every single day after schl. We brainstrmed, exchanged ideas and rehearsed the scene. As the days rlled by, I was feeling pretty gd abut ur act. But the day befre the perfrmance, Emma called that she had an acute stmachache and was nt in any shape t perfrm.

Dear David,

Therefre, I suggest yu use a cncise and cnvincing message and high-quality images relevant t the theme. Meanwhile, yu’d better simplify the layut by remving sme unnecessary elements that distract attentin frm the message.
I hpe my feedback is helpful. Best f luck with yur design.

I was cmpletely kncked ut by the news. Withut Emma’s vice t guide me, I wuld definitely mess up and this was nt hw everything was suppsed t g! As I std there, feeling at a lss, a gentle tuch n my shulder brught me back t reality. It wasmy mm, wearing a cmfrting smile.
