A 24-year-old female space commander has become a viral sensation on Chinese social media for her work.

According to her colleague, Zhou Chengyu was very surprised when she found out she went viral online. She said that she was happy when she saw people online regarding her as the pride of the country, and yet she kept saying that she was "nobody but normal worker at a launch site" and there are a lot more people just like her going unnoticed while doing the hardest job to guarantee a better future for the Chinese space program.

As the coronavirus（冠状病毒）outbreak continues, many Americans are fearful of using public transportation. They are also looking for ways to get exercise without going to a gym. So, it may not be surprising that the pandemic（疫情）has led to a major increase in bicycle sales.
In the US, bicycles at big stores have sold out. And small bicycle stores cannot keep up with demand for "family-style" bicycles: the low-cost, easy-to-ride models. "The bicycle industry is seeing its biggest sales increase since the oil crisis of the 1970s," said Jay Townley, an industry expert. He compared the sale of bicycles to the rush to buy products like toilet paper at the start of the pandemic.
The rise in bicycle sales is not happening just in the US. Italy has created bicycle paths for the growing number of people who want to avoid public transportation. In London, city officials plan to ban cars from some central roads. Bike shop owners in Manila say demand is even stronger than what they see at Christmas time.
Of course, you can only buy a bicycle if you can find one. In the US. the shortages now mean it may take many months to get a bicycle. High demand is not the only reason for the shortage. Many bicycle factories were shut down to stop the spread of COVID-19. The increase in bicycle demand began in March as countries began to close down. In April, the sale of bicycles increased 200 percent in the US.
Joe Minutolo is the co-owner of Bar Harbor Bicycle Shop in Maine. He said he hoped the increased sales meant a change in the way people think about transportation. "People are having a chance to rethink things," he said, "Maybe we'll all learn something out of this, and something really good will happen."
28. What causes the increase in bicycle sales?
A. Outbreak of the coronavirus. B. People's desire to defeat disease,
C. Shortage of public transportation. D. People's fear of natural disasters.
29. What change has the pandemic caused in Italy?
A. More bikes are sold than at Christmas time. B. "Family-style" bicycles are in great need.
C. New bicycle paths have been built. D. Cars are banned from some central roads.
30. What can we know from Paragraph 4?
A. It's impossible to buy a bike. B. Bike factories were closed in April.
C. It takes many months to produce a bike. D. High demand for bikes began in March.
31. What is Joe Minutolo's attitude towards the increased sales of bicycles?
A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Uncertain. D. Critical.
D
When 12 girls from San Femando high school in Califormia received a grant（助学金）to develop an invention to solve a real- world problem, they decided to create a solar一powered shelter. Now for over a year, the girls have been working after school and over the winter and spring breaks to complete their project. "They have this amazing drive that I've never seen before," said Violet Mardirosian, a math teacher at San Fermando High. "I thought at the beginning that maybe some of them would give up，saying ' I didn't expect this much work,' but they don't. They're just working hard and they' re not giving up."
Living in a low一income community（社区）, the girls have seen the problem of homelessness first- hand, which is why they chose that population to create a product for. Many of them are also from immigrant families and hope the solar 一 powered shelter might help refugees（难民）. Seventeen 一 year 一 old Maggie Mejia said that while she had no engineering experience, the girls figured out as a team how to create the prototype（雏形）, using how 一 to videos and books that taught them how to code. But the most important lesson she's learned over the course of the project isn't technical. "I've learned a lot about helping others, helping the community and showing a better world to other people," she said.
The girls have been invited to MIT to show their invention. Mardirosian says all the participating students have expressed interest in going into STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) fields and that students from lower grades are already expressing interest in being involved next year. She says, "Many of them didn't think about engineering before. They thought maybe they're not made out to be an engineer. But working together, now they realize they're all needed in this field. Everyone has found their importance in this picture."
32. Why did Mardirosian think some girls would quit the subject?
A. It was not practical in real life at all. B. It required a lot of money and expert knowledge.
C. It was not supported by their math teacher. D. It demanded a lot of time and energy.
33. Why did the girls decide to create a solar-powered shelter?
A. To save energy. B. To win a scholarship. C. To help the homeless D. To be admitted to MIT.
34. According to Maggie, what is the most valuable lesson she has learned from the project?
A. How to code. B. The way to teach herself.
C. The power of teamwork. D. How to make the world a better place.
35. What does Mardirosian think of the project?
A. It taught girls to be independent. B. It should be continued next year.
C. It inspired girls' interest in STEM. D. It showed the importance of engineering.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Not all people know how to make every day count. Do you want to enjoy every day no matter what happens? 36 Here's what I do each day to truly enjoy every day.
Wake up early every day. I wake up at 5 a.m. each weekday morning and at 6 a.m. on weekends. Waking up early is key to starting my day right and following my daily routine in the rest of the day. 37 And there are many benefits of waking up early. When I choose to get up early and do amazing things in those quiet hours, I feel like I'm controlling where I go.
38 I say this simple sentence out aloud, "This will be the best day ever!" I say it like I mean it, Why? My mind keeps telling me all the things that are wrong, but through positive thinking, I overcome it. According to Mayo Clinic, positive thinking helps manage stress and even improves your health.
Nourish（滋养）your body. I drink a full glass of water and eat a piece of fruit in the morning. Not only does it help clean my body, but it also helps me wake up. 39 Up to 60% of the human body is water, and even if you're dehydrated（脱水的）, you may not feel thirsty.Having a glass of water at the beginning of the day helps you keep away from health problems caused by being dehydrated.
40 When I first read about Julia Cameron's Morning Pages, I thought she was crazy. You want me to handwrite three pages every single morning? Are you crazy? Today, I can't imagine going a single day without doing my Morning Pages. My Morning Pages help clear my mind and clarify（阐明）my dreams, goals and ideas.
A. It's actually not that hard.
B. I get up early every day.
C. Many successful people are early risers.
D. Immediately get in a positive mind.
E. Say something aloud immediately after you get up.
F. Write to clear your mind and clarify things.
G. And I'm doing something good for my body right away.

"What do you think about my audition（试奏）yesterday? My trill（颤音）should have been better, don't you think?" Abbie asked Mel and closed the lid of her violin case before school.
"It's no big deal, Abbie," Mel said as they walked out the door. Mel didn't have time to worry about her little sister's mood.It turned out to be a busy day. She had a test in science class. She hit two home runs in softball.After school, she and her friends talked about their summer plans.
She forgot about the audition results until Abbie dragged her to the music room. Mel thought she' d probably be in the first violins.
Mel and Abbie found the list of names on the board. Abbie. Concertmaster. Abbie screamed, "I can't believe it!" "I can't wait to tell Mum and Dad!" Abbie rushed toward home. Mel kept reading. Mel. Second violins. What? There had to be some mistake. She' d figure out tomorrow.
When Mel got home, Abbie was playing her audition piece there. Music poured from Abbie's bow like water from a teapot — pure and perfect. And the trill sounded like a bird singing. Abbie was good — really good- but that wasn't the point. "Mr. Benson must have made a mistake," Mel thought.
The next morning, Mel slipped into the music room. Gathering her courage, Mel said, "Mr.Benson, I want to talk to you about the orchestra（管弦乐队）seats."
" Yes — you must be proud of your sister," Mr.Benson smiled. "Abbie is a rare student. If she continues to practice hard and grow as a musician, she could become a professional. Then we'll look back on our little orchestra and think about how lucky we were."
注意：续写词数应为150左右。

Dear Mary,
How is everything going? I'm writing to tell you the news that a chorus competition will be held in our school. I'm more than glad to invite you to attend it.
In order to celebrate the upcoming 72nd anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Students' Union has decided to hold a chorus competition, whose theme is "Love our Motherland". As scheduled, the contest will take place on the afternoon of September 29th in the school hall, lasting for 3 hours, from 2: 00 pm to 5: 00 pm. Besides, students and teachers of each class will be required to wear school uniforms and sing varieties of wonderful songs together to show our deep love for the motherland. Then the class who sings best will be awarded with a big prize by the headmaster. It can be of great fun and meaningful, which will leave a deep impression on you.
I would appreciate it if you could accept my invitation. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

Mel froze as there wasn't any mix-up.She realized she was the one who'd made a mistake. Her little sister had earned the first chair through efforts — and she hadn't even congratulated her. Mel walked down the hall. Most days, she spent her time thinking about softball, her classes and her friends. Every day was so full that she didn't always practice her violin while Abbie played every day. Determined to make a change, Mel decided to have a talk with Abbie.
After school, Mel found Abbie on a bench outside, playing the violin. Mel made up her mind to apologize to Abbie after a brief inner struggle. She cleared her throat and started, "I'm so proud that you're concertmaster. I'm sorry I've been so mean. I guess I was jealous." Abbie was surprised. "But you're popular, Mel. You get better grades. You're better at sports. You can do everything." Mel shook her head. "I can't make a trill like you can." "You can if you keep practicing." Abbie smiled and asked if Mel would like to play with her. Mel agreed delightedly.

According to her colleague, Zhou Chengyu was very surprised when she found out she went viral online.

As the coronavirus（冠状病毒）outbreak continues, many Americans are fearful of using public transportation. They are also looking for ways to get exercise without going to a gym. So, it may not be surprising that the pandemic（疫情）has led to a major increase in bicycle sales.
In the US, bicycles at big stores have sold out. And small bicycle stores cannot keep up with demand for "family-style" bicycles: the low-cost, easy-to-ride models. "The bicycle industry is seeing its biggest sales increase since the oil crisis of the 1970s," said Jay Townley, an industry expert. He compared the sale of bicycles to the rush to buy products like toilet paper at the start of the pandemic.
The rise in bicycle sales is not happening just in the US. Italy has created bicycle paths for the growing number of people who want to avoid public transportation. In London, city officials plan to ban cars from some central roads. Bike shop owners in Manila say demand is even stronger than what they see at Christmas time.
Of course, you can only buy a bicycle if you can find one. In the US. the shortages now mean it may take many months to get a bicycle. High demand is not the only reason for the shortage. Many bicycle factories were shut down to stop the spread of COVID-19. The increase in bicycle demand began in March as countries began to close down. In April, the sale of bicycles increased 200 percent in the US.
Joe Minutolo is the co-owner of Bar Harbor Bicycle Shop in Maine. He said he hoped the increased sales meant a change in the way people think about transportation. "People are having a chance to rethink things," he said, "Maybe we'll all learn something out of this, and something really good will happen."
28. What causes the increase in bicycle sales?
A. Outbreak of the coronavirus. B. People's desire to defeat disease,
C. Shortage of public transportation. D. People's fear of natural disasters.
29. What change has the pandemic caused in Italy?
A. More bikes are sold than at Christmas time. B. "Family-style" bicycles are in great need.
C. New bicycle paths have been built. D. Cars are banned from some central roads.
30. What can we know from Paragraph 4?
A. It's impossible to buy a bike. B. Bike factories were closed in April.
C. It takes many months to produce a bike. D. High demand for bikes began in March.
31. What is Joe Minutolo's attitude towards the increased sales of bicycles?
A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Uncertain. D. Critical.
D
When 12 girls from San Femando high school in Califormia received a grant（助学金）to develop an invention to solve a real- world problem, they decided to create a solar一powered shelter. Now for over a year, the girls have been working after school and over the winter and spring breaks to complete their project. "They have this amazing drive that I've never seen before," said Violet Mardirosian, a math teacher at San Fermando High. "I thought at the beginning that maybe some of them would give up，saying ' I didn't expect this much work,' but they don't. They're just working hard and they' re not giving up."
Living in a low一income community（社区）, the girls have seen the problem of homelessness first- hand, which is why they chose that population to create a product for. Many of them are also from immigrant families and hope the solar 一 powered shelter might help refugees（难民）. Seventeen 一 year 一 old Maggie Mejia said that while she had no engineering experience, the girls figured out as a team how to create the prototype（雏形）, using how 一 to videos and books that taught them how to code. But the most important lesson she's learned over the course of the project isn't technical. "I've learned a lot about helping others, helping the community and showing a better world to other people," she said.
The girls have been invited to MIT to show their invention. Mardirosian says all the participating students have expressed interest in going into STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) fields and that students from lower grades are already expressing interest in being involved next year. She says, "Many of them didn't think about engineering before. They thought maybe they're not made out to be an engineer. But working together, now they realize they're all needed in this field. Everyone has found their importance in this picture."
32. Why did Mardirosian think some girls would quit the subject?
A. It was not practical in real life at all. B. It required a lot of money and expert knowledge.
C. It was not supported by their math teacher. D. It demanded a lot of time and energy.
33. Why did the girls decide to create a solar-powered shelter?
A. To save energy. B. To win a scholarship. C. To help the homeless D. To be admitted to MIT.
34. According to Maggie, what is the most valuable lesson she has learned from the project?
A. How to code. B. The way to teach herself.
C. The power of teamwork. D. How to make the world a better place.
35. What does Mardirosian think of the project?
A. It taught girls to be independent. B. It should be continued next year.
C. It inspired girls' interest in STEM. D. It showed the importance of engineering.

Not all people know how to make every day count. Do you want to enjoy every day no matter what happens? 36 Here's what I do each day to truly enjoy every day.
Wake up early every day. I wake up at 5 a.m. each weekday morning and at 6 a.m. on weekends. Waking up early is key to starting my day right and following my daily routine in the rest of the day. 37 And there are many benefits of waking up early. When I choose to get up early and do amazing things in those quiet hours, I feel like I'm controlling where I go.
38 I say this simple sentence out aloud, "This will be the best day ever!" I say it like I mean it, Why? My mind keeps telling me all the things that are wrong, but through positive thinking, I overcome it. According to Mayo Clinic, positive thinking helps manage stress and even improves your health.
Nourish（滋养）your body. I drink a full glass of water and eat a piece of fruit in the morning. Not only does it help clean my body, but it also helps me wake up. 39 Up to 60% of the human body is water, and even if you're dehydrated（脱水的）, you may not feel thirsty.Having a glass of water at the beginning of the day helps you keep away from health problems caused by being dehydrated.
40 When I first read about Julia Cameron's Morning Pages, I thought she was crazy. You want me to handwrite three pages every single morning? Are you crazy? Today, I can't imagine going a single day without doing my Morning Pages. My Morning Pages help clear my mind and clarify（阐明）my dreams, goals and ideas.
A. It's actually not that hard.
B. I get up early every day.
C. Many successful people are early risers.
D. Immediately get in a positive mind.
E. Say something aloud immediately after you get up.

"What do you think about my audition（试奏）yesterday? My trill（颤音）should have been better, don't you think?" Abbie asked Mel and closed the lid of her violin case before school.
"It's no big deal, Abbie," Mel said as they walked out the door. Mel didn't have time to worry about her little sister's mood.It turned out to be a busy day. She had a test in science class. She hit two home runs in softball.After school, she and her friends talked about their summer plans.
She forgot about the audition results until Abbie dragged her to the music room. Mel thought she' d probably be in the first violins.
Mel and Abbie found the list of names on the board. Abbie. Concertmaster. Abbie screamed, "I can't believe it!" "I can't wait to tell Mum and Dad!" Abbie rushed toward home. Mel kept reading. Mel. Second violins. What? There had to be some mistake. She' d figure out tomorrow.
When Mel got home, Abbie was playing her audition piece there. Music poured from Abbie's bow like water from a teapot — pure and perfect. And the trill sounded like a bird singing. Abbie was good — really good- but that wasn't the point. "Mr. Benson must have made a mistake," Mel thought.
The next morning, Mel slipped into the music room. Gathering her courage, Mel said, "Mr.Benson, I want to talk to you about the orchestra（管弦乐队）seats."
" Yes — you must be proud of your sister," Mr.Benson smiled. "Abbie is a rare student. If she continues to practice hard and grow as a musician, she could become a professional. Then we'll look back on our little orchestra and think about how lucky we were."

Dear Mary,
How is everything going? I'm writing to tell you the news that a chorus competition will be held in our school. I'm more than glad to invite you to attend it.
In order to celebrate the upcoming 72nd anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Students' Union has decided to hold a chorus competition, whose theme is "Love our Motherland". As scheduled, the contest will take place on the afternoon of September 29th in the school hall, lasting for 3 hours, from 2: 00 pm to 5: 00 pm. Besides, students and teachers of each class will be required to wear school uniforms and sing varieties of wonderful songs together to show our deep love for the motherland. Then the class who sings best will be awarded with a big prize by the headmaster. It can be of great fun and meaningful, which will leave a deep impression on you.
I would appreciate it if you could accept my invitation. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

Mel froze as there wasn't any mix-up.She realized she was the one who'd made a mistake. Her little sister had earned the first chair through efforts — and she hadn't even congratulated her. Mel walked down the hall. Most days, she spent her time thinking about softball, her classes and her friends. Every day was so full that she didn't always practice her violin while Abbie played every day. Determined to make a change, Mel decided to have a talk with Abbie.
After school, Mel found Abbie on a bench outside, playing the violin. Mel made up her mind to apologize to Abbie after a brief inner struggle. She cleared her throat and started, "I'm so proud that you're concertmaster. I'm sorry I've been so mean. I guess I was jealous." Abbie was surprised. "But you're popular, Mel. You get better grades. You're better at sports. You can do everything." Mel shook her head. "I can't make a trill like you can." "You can if you keep practicing." Abbie smiled and asked if Mel would like to play with her. Mel agreed delightedly.
