Ⅱ.[2019·原创] 阅读理解
Millions of Chinese have been playing a mobile game called Travel Frog recently. You play as the “mother” of a frog that lives alone and enjoys traveling. You need to prepare food and tools for his trips. The frog will send you postcards while he is away.
The game’s popularity may have something to do with how lonely people are these days, according to the Xinhua News Agency. Many players have said that the lonely frog is just like them. But playing with the frog helps them forget their loneliness for a short time.
Loneliness seems to be a common problem today. According to The Guardian, about 40 percent of American adults say they’re lonely. And in the UK, about one in five people in the country are “always or often lonely”, The Telegraph reported.
This might be why the UK government declared (宣布) the country’s very first “Minister of Loneliness” (孤独大臣) in January. The minister’s job is to find ways to help UK citizens feel less lonely. The minister’s office will provide more money for activities that connect people together.
This loneliness problem may be partly because of social media. When we see pictures of friends having fun or posting selfies(自拍) without us, we may compare their “perfect” lives with our own and feel inferior(较差的) and lonely.
But we should remember that no one is destined(注定) to be lonely. As UK poet John Donne once wrote, “No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent(陆地), a part of the main.”
Tips to get rid of loneliness:
•Sing your favorite songs.
•Connect with a friend.
•Do something creative, such as drawing a picture.
•Imagine some place you’d like to visit, like a fun gathering or a sporting event.

Ⅲ.[2018·清江浦二模] 任务型阅读
You probably enjoy riding a bicycle. But because more injuries(伤害) happen with bicycles than with any other kind of vehicle(交通工具), it is important that you keep your bicycle in good working condition and obey some safety rules while you ride.
To help prevent accidents, ride your bicycle on the roads that have little traffic. If you can reach your destination(目的地) by way of quiet streets, instead of riding on a main street with a lot of traffic, your trip will be much safer. Whenever you ride on a road or street, you are responsible(负有责任的)

to know bicycle safety rules and put them into practice. Always ride on the right side of the road so that cars can pass you safely. Because they go in the same direction as you and you share the road with other kinds of traffic, it is very important that you obey traffic signs.
Sometimes the best way to travel from one place to another is to walk. As a pedestrian(步行者), you must remember that you are not the only traveller. Car and bus drivers, truckers and motorcyclists may all pass by quickly without seeing you. Walk on sidewalks(人行道)whenever possible. If there is no sidewalk and you have to walk on the road, you should walk on the left side facing traffic. By walking toward the oncoming cars, you will be able to see and move away from danger before anything hits you. If you have to cross the road, be sure to look in both directions to see that the way is clear. You can never be too careful, but the most important for you is to follow the traffic safety rules.
根据上面的短文内容,回答下列问题(每小题答案不超过6个单词)。
16.What vehicle brings you more injuries than any other one?
17.Can riding on a main street with a lot of traffic make your trip much safer?
