I’ve always felt I was raised by a beautiful fairy. My mm, Nellie, was sft-spken and had an extrardinary smile.

After high schl, I attended Hendrix Cllege in Arkansas. When I was a freshman, they cast me in a schl’s big play. At the end, ne f the drama prfessrs said, “Yu dn’t really belng here. Yu belng in New Yrk. They’d knw what t d with yu.” He gave me a list f schls. He pinted t the Neighbrhd Playhuse and said it was small but Sandy Meisner, the man wh ran it was great. I auditined (试镜) and a mnth later, I was accepted. Mm and I started crying.
After mving t New Yrk, my big break came six years later, in 1977. I tk a meeting abut a mvie called “Gin’ Suth,” with Jack Nichlsn. After the auditin, they said I wasn’t quite right. Back in receptin, I wanted t aplgize fr being stubbrn. Jack was standing there. He said, “Are yu waiting t see me?” I tld him I was but I didn’t have a script. He gave me ne and tld me I’d have 10 minutes with him the next day. I made it t a screen test in L. A．Later, I was in Jack’s ffice and asked if smene culd apprve my htel expenses. Jack was smking a cigar. He said, “Dn’t wrry abut it, kid. Yu’ re n the payrll.”
Tday, my husband, actr Ted Dansn, and I spend mst f ur time in Ojai, Calif. I als lve the wildness f the muntains. I still wn my childhd hme in Arkansas. I haven’t been able t part with it. Emtinally, the lve frm ur parents is still there.

Facebk's recent admissin that scial media may be making its users feel bad in sme cases is a significant milestne. S far, the technlgy industry hardly has talked abut the disadvantages f their prducts.
Academic research in a Facebk blg pst in December dcumented that when peple spend a lt f time passively cnsuming infrmatin, they feel wrse. Fr example, clicking r liking t many links and psts can have a negative effect n mental health. Sme researchers als believe that reading rsy stries abut thers leads t negative cmparisns abut ne's life and that being nline t much reduces in-persn scializing. Scial media may well be making many f us unhappy, jealus and anti-scial. Althugh Facebk said that, as a result f the assessments, it wuld make sme changes t its platfrm. It als emphasized sme f the benefits f using the scial netwrk. It explained that “sharing messages, psts and cmments with clse friends and recalling abut past interactins” can make peple feel better. “The research and ther academic literature suggest that it’s hw yu use scial media that matters when it cmes t yur well-being,” Facebk said.
But that apprach desn’t seem t be an effective slutin fr thse wh can’t remain alf frm such platfrms. The Pew Research Center estimates that 24 percent f teens g nline “almst cnstantly”. It is becming a matter f addictin.
We need t be aware f what we are up against. Remember when we wuld just pick up the phne and call smene rather than email them and create greater misunderstandings. This may be an ld-fashined chice, but the right ne. And maybe we shuld just turn away frm ur screens smetimes and meet ur friends and family in persn.
28. Why is Facebk’s recgnitin cnsidered as a milestne?
A. Facebk has cme t admit their prducts' negative effects.
B. The recgnitin has drawn a wide public attentin.
C. The technlgy industry has made prgress in mass prductin.
D. The technlgy industry has never brught bad feelings t users.
29. What may cause Facebk’s users t feel bad accrding t the passage?
A. Scializing in persn.
B. Reading thers’ rsy stries.
C. Liking yur friends’ links and psts.
D. Sharing messages with clse friends.
30. What des the underlined wrd “alf” in the third paragraph mean?
A. invlved B. indifferentC. disheartenedD. devted
31. Which can be the suitable title fr the text?
A. Hw t Use Scial Media
B. Acknwledgement frm Facebk
C. Off Screens Whether Change Or Nt
D. The imprtance f Scial Media Detx
D
The fact that gender diversity is smething that cmpanies cnstantly desire highlights the prblem in itself. Acrss industries, the wrkfrce gender balance is still highly skewed (偏向……的), even in fields which d nt traditinally invlve labrius wrk. The tech industry is a case in pint, with the wrkfrce imbalance definitely being ne f the mst prminent n the list.
Diversity and inclusin need t g hand in hand, and wmen arund the wrld are increasingly assuming imprtant psitins and taking cre decisins in the tech sectr. These wmen are driving technlgical change and innvatin which impact the industry at large.
Gender diversity, like diversity in general, is imprtant fr varied perspectives and thught prcesses in a cmpany. These perspectives are what help shape advancements and new ideas in technlgy and verall peratins fr the success f the business. This is especially true fr technlgies such as AI.
Accrding t a 2017 reprt n Higher Educatin by the Ministry f Human Resurce Develpment, Gvernment f India, wmen were at r near parity (对等) amng undergraduate degrees in science IT and cmputer. Mst wmen equal men when it cmes t skills, but face discriminatin in ther areas, thus creating a gap and reducing the will t cntinue at the cmpany.
Accrding t reprts, biased treatment within the wrkplace is the mst frequently cited reasn fr leaving, fllwed by pr management. There is still scpe fr a shift in attitudes at wrkplaces, which is a majr bstacle when it cmes t preserving wmen emplyees. In rder t retain this talent and hire mre talent like this, gvernments, NGOs and leaders frm tech rganizatins need t cme tgether t help clse the gender gap further by prviding mre flexible wrk ptins and decisin-making pprtunities fr wmen.
Mre and mre wmen acrss the wrld are interested in lking fr tech careers r maintaining their existing nes. There is a need t encurage them t take up rles in AI and STEM (Science, Technlgy, Engineering, and Maths) with pprtunities that are bth fair and equal. Given the cmputer-driven nature f AI, there is a need fr wmen frm diverse backgrunds t balance ut the cnventinally male-dminated prfessin t give an accurate representatin.
32. Frm the first paragraph we knw that ________.
A. gender balance prblem remains t be slved
B. labrius wrk demands mre gender balance
C. nt all industries have gender balance prblem
D. gender balance prblem has been mre serius
33. Wmen emplyees are reprted t leave their jbs mainly because f ________.
A. unsatisfying incmeB. pr management
C. cmpetitive wrkplaceD. unfair treatment
34. Which f the fllwing can help t retain and attract mre wmen?
A. Encuraging wmen t take up all kinds f rles.
B. Treating wmen emplyees mre kindly than t men emplyees.
C. Offering wmen diverse wrk chices and decisin-making pprtunities.
D. Prviding a tlerant wrking envirnment cmbined with favrable welfare.
35. What is the purpse f writing this passage?
A. T appeal t wmen t prtect their prper rights

Dear headmaster,
S appealing is yur plan t intrduce a rbt t ur schl that I decide t respnd t yur asking fr prpsals. Frm my perspective, a rbt is mre suitable fr the psitin f librarian.
With regard t the range f service, being a librarian needs nt nly t classify bks, but als put and find them in the right rder n the right shelf, while being a waiter invlves serving the very dishes t the specific table, ding sme cleaning and s n. A rbt can accmplish three r fur librarians’ wrk f srting and labeling bks at the same time.
In terms f wrking efficiency, a rbt may be mre efficient in ding the prgrammed mechanical and repetitive kind f wrk. Therefre, it is mre advisable fr the rbt t undertake the duties f a librarian gruping cuntless bks repeatedly.
In a nutshell, it is the mechanical wrk f a librarian that the rbt is mre cmpetent at. Hpe that my advice will be f great help t yur decisin.
Yurs, Li Hua

One pssible versin:
Everything went mre smthly than Dana and Jeff had expected. Smileatfuture's swift apprval f their applicatin brught a wave f relief t the cuple as well as cncern abut the uncertainty f the surgery.

Djukic is taking a bilgy class called Climate Change: Glbal Impacts. ⑰At the same time, she is taking an English class called Envirnmental Literature. Her university requires students t take tw cnnected classes that examine the same subject in different ways.
⑰Debra Rsenthal is the English prfessr. ⑱At first, Djukic said she was uncertain abut Rsenthal’s bard game idea. “I was just thinking the idea culd be interesting. But hw fun is this idea actually ging t be? Can we really learn abut climate change just by playing a bard game? What specifically can we get frm such a game?”
⑲⑳Rsenthal bught six cpies f a game called “Slutins”. The gal is t pick cards and then add them t the game bard in a way that helps reduce glbal temperatures. ⑲Students d nt cmpete against each ther. They wrk tgether and try t cme up with a slutin s that the planet is nt destryed. The game is different frm sme ther bard games such as “Mnply”, where the gal is t win.
Students read materials and then discuss their ideas. ⑳In mst classes, Rsenthal said, students laughed, disagreed and had t call fr vtes as a way t decide hw t mve frward in the game. Djukic said it was a way t have fun while als learning abut such a serius subject.

After mving t New Yrk, my big break came six years later, in 1977. I tk a meeting abut a mvie called “Gin’ Suth,” with Jack Nichlsn. After the auditin, they said I wasn’t quite right. Back in receptin, I wanted t aplgize fr being stubbrn. Jack was standing there. He said, “Are yu waiting t see me?” I tld him I was but I didn’t have a script. He gave me ne and tld me I’d have 10 minutes with him the next day. I made it t a screen test in L. A．Later, I was in Jack’s ffice and asked if smene culd apprve my htel expenses. Jack was smking a cigar. He said, “Dn’t wrry abut it, kid. Yu’ re n the payrll.”
Tday, my husband, actr Ted Dansn, and I spend mst f ur time in Ojai, Calif. I als lve the wildness f the muntains. I still wn my childhd hme in Arkansas. I haven’t been able t part with it. Emtinally, the lve frm ur parents is still there.

Facebk's recent admissin that scial media may be making its users feel bad in sme cases is a significant milestne. S far, the technlgy industry hardly has talked abut the disadvantages f their prducts.
Academic research in a Facebk blg pst in December dcumented that when peple spend a lt f time passively cnsuming infrmatin, they feel wrse. Fr example, clicking r liking t many links and psts can have a negative effect n mental health. Sme researchers als believe that reading rsy stries abut thers leads t negative cmparisns abut ne's life and that being nline t much reduces in-persn scializing. Scial media may well be making many f us unhappy, jealus and anti-scial. Althugh Facebk said that, as a result f the assessments, it wuld make sme changes t its platfrm. It als emphasized sme f the benefits f using the scial netwrk. It explained that “sharing messages, psts and cmments with clse friends and recalling abut past interactins” can make peple feel better. “The research and ther academic literature suggest that it’s hw yu use scial media that matters when it cmes t yur well-being,” Facebk said.
But that apprach desn’t seem t be an effective slutin fr thse wh can’t remain alf frm such platfrms. The Pew Research Center estimates that 24 percent f teens g nline “almst cnstantly”. It is becming a matter f addictin.
We need t be aware f what we are up against. Remember when we wuld just pick up the phne and call smene rather than email them and create greater misunderstandings. This may be an ld-fashined chice, but the right ne. And maybe we shuld just turn away frm ur screens smetimes and meet ur friends and family in persn.
28. Why is Facebk’s recgnitin cnsidered as a milestne?
A. Facebk has cme t admit their prducts' negative effects.
B. The recgnitin has drawn a wide public attentin.
C. The technlgy industry has made prgress in mass prductin.
D. The technlgy industry has never brught bad feelings t users.
29. What may cause Facebk’s users t feel bad accrding t the passage?
A. Scializing in persn.
B. Reading thers’ rsy stries.
C. Liking yur friends’ links and psts.
D. Sharing messages with clse friends.
30. What des the underlined wrd “alf” in the third paragraph mean?
A. invlved B. indifferentC. disheartenedD. devted
31. Which can be the suitable title fr the text?
A. Hw t Use Scial Media
B. Acknwledgement frm Facebk
C. Off Screens Whether Change Or Nt
D. The imprtance f Scial Media Detx

The fact that gender diversity is smething that cmpanies cnstantly desire highlights the prblem in itself. Acrss industries, the wrkfrce gender balance is still highly skewed (偏向……的), even in fields which d nt traditinally invlve labrius wrk. The tech industry is a case in pint, with the wrkfrce imbalance definitely being ne f the mst prminent n the list.
Diversity and inclusin need t g hand in hand, and wmen arund the wrld are increasingly assuming imprtant psitins and taking cre decisins in the tech sectr. These wmen are driving technlgical change and innvatin which impact the industry at large.
Gender diversity, like diversity in general, is imprtant fr varied perspectives and thught prcesses in a cmpany. These perspectives are what help shape advancements and new ideas in technlgy and verall peratins fr the success f the business. This is especially true fr technlgies such as AI.
Accrding t a 2017 reprt n Higher Educatin by the Ministry f Human Resurce Develpment, Gvernment f India, wmen were at r near parity (对等) amng undergraduate degrees in science IT and cmputer. Mst wmen equal men when it cmes t skills, but face discriminatin in ther areas, thus creating a gap and reducing the will t cntinue at the cmpany.
Accrding t reprts, biased treatment within the wrkplace is the mst frequently cited reasn fr leaving, fllwed by pr management. There is still scpe fr a shift in attitudes at wrkplaces, which is a majr bstacle when it cmes t preserving wmen emplyees. In rder t retain this talent and hire mre talent like this, gvernments, NGOs and leaders frm tech rganizatins need t cme tgether t help clse the gender gap further by prviding mre flexible wrk ptins and decisin-making pprtunities fr wmen.
Mre and mre wmen acrss the wrld are interested in lking fr tech careers r maintaining their existing nes. There is a need t encurage them t take up rles in AI and STEM (Science, Technlgy, Engineering, and Maths) with pprtunities that are bth fair and equal. Given the cmputer-driven nature f AI, there is a need fr wmen frm diverse backgrunds t balance ut the cnventinally male-dminated prfessin t give an accurate representatin.
32. Frm the first paragraph we knw that ________.
A. gender balance prblem remains t be slved
B. labrius wrk demands mre gender balance
C. nt all industries have gender balance prblem
D. gender balance prblem has been mre serius
33. Wmen emplyees are reprted t leave their jbs mainly because f ________.
A. unsatisfying incmeB. pr management

34. Which f the fllwing can help t retain and attract mre wmen?
A. Encuraging wmen t take up all kinds f rles.
B. Treating wmen emplyees mre kindly than t men emplyees.
C. Offering wmen diverse wrk chices and decisin-making pprtunities.
D. Prviding a tlerant wrking envirnment cmbined with favrable welfare.
35. What is the purpse f writing this passage?
A. T appeal t wmen t prtect their prper rights
B. T present the fact f gender bias in the tech industry
C. T call fr mre wmen representatin in the tech industry
D. T teach the tech industry hw t get rid f gender bias

Dear headmaster,
S appealing is yur plan t intrduce a rbt t ur schl that I decide t respnd t yur asking fr prpsals. Frm my perspective, a rbt is mre suitable fr the psitin f librarian.
With regard t the range f service, being a librarian needs nt nly t classify bks, but als put and find them in the right rder n the right shelf, while being a waiter invlves serving the very dishes t the specific table, ding sme cleaning and s n. A rbt can accmplish three r fur librarians’ wrk f srting and labeling bks at the same time.
In terms f wrking efficiency, a rbt may be mre efficient in ding the prgrammed mechanical and repetitive kind f wrk. Therefre, it is mre advisable fr the rbt t undertake the duties f a librarian gruping cuntless bks repeatedly.
In a nutshell, it is the mechanical wrk f a librarian that the rbt is mre cmpetent at. Hpe that my advice will be f great help t yur decisin.
Yurs, Li Hua
