No one is sure where the tradition exactly comes from. But while its origin remains a mystery, this does not keep people from joining it.The Carnival of Binche, the most famous one that is staged in Belgium, has been announced as a masterpiece  of the Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. The event usually takes place during a Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, with performers known as “Gilles” dressed in clown-like costumes, dancing and marching along the streets. During parade, the Gilles throw oranges to the crowd as an act of well-washing and it is considered rude to throw them back.Venice is said to be the birthplace of carnivals. In the city, the annual carnival starts 58 days before Easter. It features various brightly-colored and well-made masks. Every year, thousands of visitors go to the city to be part of the festive event.The Germans, always considered serious-minded, also have their carnivals. The Cologne Carnival is one of the largest, with Rose Monday as the best part. On Rose Monday Parade, lots of gifts are prepared for the people who join it. For this year, 300 tons of candies and more than 300,000 souvenirs were thrown out of the various nicely-decorated floats (花车) to the crowd.The Nice Carnival in the southern French city if Nice lasts two or three weeks from February to march every year. It features floats, music, dance, performances and entertainment activities. The parade of lights and the final day carnival parade are the most exciting parts of the entire event. Compared to the Rio Carnival in Brazil and the Winter Carnival in Quebec, Canada, the Nice Carnival has a special artistic touch, and it is one of the three major carnivals around the world.Carnivals were first organized in the Middle Ages. They were supposed to be a time of eating and drinking before the Easter fast (斋戒). Nowadays, they have turned into winter tourism attractions of many European cities.4、What do we know about the Carnival of Binche?  A.It begins 58 days before Easter.

In some cultures, people will have a daily nap — this is fine. The warning comes when people start sleeping during the daytime. There is certainly a good reason to believe that daytime sleepiness — as in the Alzheimer's study — can be a marker of an underlying condition.For most people, napping during the day is mainly a sign that you are not getting enough sleep at night, says Dr. Neil Stanley, a sleep expert. "If you feel sleepy during the day, you should think about taking a nap. That is what the body needs — it doesn't need to be kept awake with caffeine, it needs sleep. "The feeling to notice is "sleepiness", he says, not "tiredness", which could be more psychological and linked to stress.So how do you nap well? The key thing, says Stanley, is how long your nap lasts. Choose either a 20-or 90-minute nap. "When you fall asleep, you'll quickly go through the lighter stages of sleep into your first period of deep sleep. You don't want to wake up in deep sleep because that's when you wake and feel worse than you did before. "Napping for 20 minutes means you will wake up before you go into deep sleep; napping for 90 minutes means you'll complete a sleep cycle.Once you factor in the time it takes to fall asleep — some people are better at napping than others but, says Stanley, "a healthy adult will fall asleep in between 5 and 12 minutes" — you can set an alarm, allowing a 30- to 40-minute period for a short nap, and up to two hours for a longer one.A good time to nap is during the body's natural dip（下沉） in the afternoon, between 2 pm and 4 pm. "You don't really want to be napping much past“that”because then you are going to be eating into your night-time sleep," Stanley says. The point, he stresses, is to get good night-time sleep, which would ensure you probably don't need to nap at all.8、What does an afternoon nap indicate for most people?A.Caffeine addiction.  B.Psychological stressC.Insufficient night sleep. D.Potential physical illness.9、What is the key to a good nap?A.Duration. B.Surroundings. C.Health. D.Stages.10、What does the underlined word“that”in the last paragraph refer to?A.A 30- to 40-minute period. B.Between 2 pm and 4 pmC.Between 5 and 12 minutes. D.A 20- to 90-minute period.11、Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Why to phase a nap B.When to take a good napC.What to learn from a nap. D.How to have a successful napSo many things can keep you from seeing your loved ones in person, from busy schedules to long distances to a rather unexpected COVID-19 virus. Fortunately, thanks to modem technology, the people we miss are often only a phone call or text message away. But if you’re someone who prefers to type out messages, you may want to reconsider. A new study, published in the Journal of Experimental Psychology, found that communication that included voice, like a phone call or video chat, created stronger social relationships than communication through typing, like text messaging or email.In the study, researchers used various experiments to measure relationships. In one, they asked 200 people what it would be like to reconnect with an old friend by email or by phone and then asked them to do one or the other. Although people anticipated that a phone call would be more awkward, hearing someone’s voice actually made the experience better.“People reported they did form a stronger relationship with their old friend on the phone compared with email, and they did not feel more awkward,” said Amit Kumar, an assistant professor of marketing at the McCombs School of Business.In another experiment, the researchers had strangers connected by either texting, talking over video chat, or talking using only audio. They found that both forms of voice communication — whether video or audio only — made the strangers feel significantly more connected than when they communicated by text.Sabrina Romanoff, a Harvard psychologist, says people tend to text or email instead of calling because of convenience, as they see it as a controlled form of communication where they can “communicate information exactly in the way they want without unexpected additions by the other person.”Romanoff says that in reality, texting can make it hard to determine the true meaning behind a conversation. “A phone call is actually more convenient when considering the net effects of the message,” she explains. “Each party is more present, and therefore, able to understand the meaning behind the content without thinking about the endless possible meanings behind words.”12、What does the passage mainly tell us?A.Texting does harm to social relationships.B.Voice communication brings people closer.C.A text message does more good than a phone call.D.People prefer a text message rather than a phone call.13、How did the researchers carry out the study?A.By comparing. B.By reasoning. C.By imagining. D.By discussing.14、What does the underlined word “anticipated” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Ensured. B.Refused. C.Expected. D.Disagreed.15、People prefer to text rather than call because they think ______.A.texting makes them feel more connectedB.they feel awkward when making a phone callC.texting helps communicate their information exactlyD.calling helps determine the true meaning behind the conversation二、七选五16、In a recent survey of more than 1,300 students, 96% said they feel worried about exams. ①_______ There is no doubt that anyone wants to get high marks in exams, so students should learn to deal with exams as calmly and effectively as possible.Develop a plan.②_______However most of the students don't plan how they'll be prepared. They just tell themselves they'll study as much as possible—then they'll "hope for the best". This isn't a wise way. Preparing for an exam is like taking on an important project. It's important to outline a plan for how you'll get ready for an exam.Change the sleep time early.Many exams are held in the early morning- a time when students don't usually feel very awake. If you'll be taking a morning exam, start sleeping earlier at least one week before the exam so that your body will have time to adjust(适应). ③______ Besides, it's also a good idea to get eight hours of sleep each night.④_______It's common for students to spend the 10 minutes before an exam doing some last-minute studying. This may provide some comfort, but overall it does more harm than good. The 10 minutes before an exam will make no difference. If you study during this time, you'll become more stressed and worried. ⑤______A. Study until the last minuteB. Don't do any last-minute studyingC. This high percentage isn't surprising.D. This will have a bad influence on your performanceE. This will help you become more confident in the exams.F. If not, your mind won't be in a good state to take the examG. It is of great importance for students to make a proper plan before an exam.三、完形填空（15空）It was a nice Thanksgiving. Carter and his friend Andy hit Palm Peach—a tourist attraction in Florida.

These days he found everything boring, and nothing excited him.One day he was lying on the bed in his room as usual. Suddenly the light went off. His room was rather hot without an air conditioner. Though he did not want to leave his room, he had to. Unwillingly, he left his room and came to the living room. It was slightly cool there as the living room had two huge windows.His young brother was playing with his friend. They were rolling on the floor. He was looking out for the TV remote, but couldn’t find it. He got up and searched for it everywhere, but the remote was nowhere to be seen. He looked at his brother who was still lying on the floor, playing.He asked him, “Where is the remote?”“Under the sofa,” his brother yelled.He tried to look through, but it was dark. He put his hand under the sofa. He touched something, grabbed it and took his hand out. It was a snake in his hand!Upon seeing that, his brother started to yell, “Snake! Snake!” Mum came as soon as she heard the shouting. She was so scared that she even couldn’t speak a word. Two kids were trying to hide behind each other’s back. “What an old trick!” Roman thought and threw it to the kids.As the snake landed on the floor near to the kids, it started moving from the left side to the right. Only then did Roman realize that the snake was real, and not a toy. He threw the snake to kids because he thought it was a fake snake and it was the kids who were playing some tricks.This time Mum almost got a heart attack. Now Roman was scared, too. The snake was only 10 meters away from the kids and was staring at them. They even couldn’t call the rescue team. There might be some deadly damage before their arrival. There was not much time to think. It was the time for a quick action.注意:续写的词数应为150左右。Paragraph 1:As Roman was farther from the snake, he jumped onto the window and grabbed the curtain.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Paragraph 2:After the rescue team caught and took away the snake, everyone went inside the home._________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

He pulled it so hard that the curtain ended up landing in his hand. Then without waiting a second, he threw the curtain over the snake. When the snake came under the curtain, he grabbed the kids’ hands and brought them out of the room. He again went inside and took his mother to the front yard. Mum was shaking like a leaf and the kids were sweating hard. Later, he called the rescue team from his cellphone.After the rescue team caught and took away the snake, everyone went inside the home. Roman went back to his room and tried to sleep, but couldn’t, so he went to the living room where he found his brother was watching cartoons. He sat next to his brother and his cellphone beeped. It was another text from his friend asking how his day was. Roman slowly typed: “Jaw-breaking day”. Then he kept his mobile aside and dragged his brother’s head to his chest and started to play with his hair gently. Then he whispered something in his ear that sounded like “Sorry”.
