A disastrous fire surrounded Notre Dame(巴黎圣母院) completely and destroyed large parts of
the Gothic(哥特式的) architecture on Monday
"Notre Dame is our history, our literature; part of our spirit, the place of all our great events, our
wars, our liberations, the center of our lives" French President Emmanuel Macron told reporters in
front of the still burning Paris landmark and promised to rebuild Notre Dame Cathedral.
"Notre Dame is burning, and know the sadness and this tremble felt by so many fellow French
people. But tonight, I'd like to speak of hope too, "he said, announcing the launch of a fundraising
campaign.
"Let's be proud, because we built this cathedral more than 800 years ago, we’ve built it and,
throughout the centuries, let it grow and improve it. So I gravely say tonight: we will rebuild it
together, "he added.
The disastrous fire engulfed(吞没) the upper reaches of Paris’ towering Notre Dame Cathedral
as it was undergoing renovations(翻新)。
Tourists and Parisians looked on horrified from the streets below. France's Interior Ministry
said firefighters might not be able to save the structure.
The fire collapsed the cathedral's spire(尖顶) and spread to one of its landmark towers .
"Everything is burning; nothing will remain from the frame, "Notre Dame spokesman Andre
Finot told French media. The 12th-century cathedral is home to incalculable works of art and is one
of the world's most famous tourist attractions, immortalized by Victor Hugo's 1831 novel The
Hunchback of Notre Dame.
The cause of the fire was not known, but French media quoted the Paris fire brigade(消防队) as
saying the fire is “potentially linked" to a 6 million-euro($6.8 million)renovation project on the
church's spire and its 250 tons of lead. Officials opened an investigation as Paris police said there
were no reported deaths. Some 400 firefighters were battling the fire well into the night.
24. What Emmanuel Macron said mainly shows that____________

D. He was desperate when he made the announcement.

A. Notre Dame Cathedral was burnt down entirely.
B. The structure was well saved by the firefighters.
C. People who were killed in the fire are some firefighters.
D. The fire was likely caused by a renovation project on the church's spire.
26. What does the underlined part probably mean?
A. The novel made the cathedral famous.
B. The cathedral is repeatedly mentioned in the novel.
C. The novel became a bestseller thanks to the cathedral.
D. The novel became more mysterious due to the cathedral.

Until the 1990s coffee was rarely served in China except at luxury hotels aimed at foreigners.
When Starbucks opened its first outlet there in 1999, it was far from clear that the country's avid
tea-drinkers would take to such a different-and usually more costly-source of caffeine. Starbucks
tried to attract customers unused to coffee's bitter taste by promoting milk and sugar-heavy
concoctions(调和) such as Frappuccinos.
But coffee has become fashionable among the middle class in China. Starbucks now has about
3, 800 outlets in China - more than in any other country outside America. Statista, a
business-intelligence portal(门户网站), says the roast coffee market in China is growing by more
than 10% a year. Starbucks and its rivals see big opportunities for expanding there.
So too, however, do home-grown competitors. A major new presence is Luck in Coffee,
Beijing- based chain. Since its founding less than two years ago, it has opened more than 2,300
outlets. On May 17th Luckin's initial public offering on the Nasdaq stockmarket raised more than
$570m, giving it a value of about $4bn.
Luckin’s remarkable growth is sign of change. No longer do Chinese consumers see coffee as
such a luxury. Most of Luckin's outlets are merely kiosks where busy white-collar workers pick up their drinks, having ordered them online. Super-fast delivery can also be arranged through the
company's app. Independent coffee shops are springing up. The growth is striking given the
country's reputation for its tea-drinking culture where many residents like to relax in teahouses
sipping tea served gracefully.
But the two markets are different. The teahouses tend to cater to older people who like to spend
long hours playing mahjong and gossiping. At the coffee shops it is rare to see anyone over 40.
Young people use them for socialising, but much of their interaction is online-sharing photos of
their drinks and of the coffee-making equipment. An option on the Chinese rating app Dianping
allows users to search for wanghong ("internet viral") coffee houses: ones with particularly
photogenic decor(照片装饰) Where better to sip and We Chat?
28. How did Starbucks try to appeal to Chinese consumers?
A. By reducing the price slightly. B. By introducing the benefits of coffee.
C. By making coffee taste not so bitter. D. By promoting its products effectively.
29. What does Luck in Coffee's growth suggest?
A. People tend to like coffee's bitter taste.
B. People's views on coffee-drinking have changed.
C. People in China can afford coffee now.
D. Tea is no longer part of Chinese culture.
30. What does the underlined word "kiosks in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Places where people can drink beer.
B. Restaurants where food can be taken away.
C. Shops aimed at people who like drinking coffee.
D. Small shops or stores where newspapers and drinks are sold.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Coffee is taking off in China. B. Tea-drinking is not popular.
C. Coffee or tea, which do you prefer? D. Coffee has become people's favorite in China.
D
Older women who walk a little over three kilometers each day might live longer than less active
women of the same age, a new study suggests.
Many Americans hoping to stay healthy set a daily goal of 10,000 steps, or about eight kilometers. They often have this goal because they are wearing electronic devices which set that
target, note researchers in the United States. Their findings appeared recently in the publication
JAMA Internal Medicine.
But it is not clear how much intensity(强度)or speed matter when counting the health benefits of
every step, the researchers write. They add that 10,000 steps per day might not be the right goal for
everyone.
For the study, researchers observed 17,000 women, all in their early 70s. They asked the
women to wear accelerometers for at least four days. Accelerometers are small devices that measure
the number of steps and the intensity of movement The researchers followed up with the women
much later, around 4.3 years later, on average. Since the beginning of the study, 504 women had
died. Compared to women who took no more than 2,718 steps daily, the women who took at least
4,363 steps per day were 41 percent less likely to die.
"Even a modest amount of steps is associated with lower death rates, "said I-Min Lee, the lead
writer of a report on the study. "The rate of stepping did not matter in these older women: it was the
number of steps that mattered.
The study had a few limitations. For example, the researchers only measured women's
movements once, at the start of the study period. It is possible that the women's behaviors changed
over time. Still, the results are "good news for older adults who may have difficulty walking at faster
paces, "said Keith Diaz, a researcher at Columbia University. He was not involved in the study.
"Any walking is better than nothing, " Diaz said by email. "With even small amounts of
walking, your risk of death will be sharply reduced "For those who have difficulty walking, other
research shows that any form of aerobic ( 有 氧 的 ) activity provides health benefits," he added.
"Swimming, bicycling or any form of activity that is continuous in nature will provide health
benefits. "
32. What conclusion can we come to from the text?
A. People who walk about 10,000 steps can live longer.
B. 10,000 steps per day might be the right goal for people.
C. The more steps one walks per day, the longer life he may live.
D. The number of steps is important for a long life among older women.
33. How is paragraph 4 mainly developed?A. By giving examples. B. By comparison.
C. By listing statistics. D. By explaining reasons.
34. What can be leaned from what Diaz said?
A. People who walk fast will get more health benefits.
B. If people have a habit of walking, the risk of death will be reduced.
C. People with walking difficulty can not benefit from activities
D. Activities such as swimming and bicycling are not as beneficial as walking.
35. Where is the text most likely from?
A. A medical journal. B. A news report.
C. A magazine about fashion. D. A traveler brochure.

选项。
We don't meet people by accident. 36 Some will help you grow, some will hurt you, some
will inspire you to do better. At the same time, you are playing some role in their lives as well.
Know that paths cross for a reason and treat people with significance.
37 There is no better joy than helping people see a vision for themselves, seeing them go to
levels higher than they ever would have imagined on their own. But that doesn't mean you have to
fix them or enable them; 38 Offer them support and motivation as they find their own way and
show you what they're capable of. All you have to do is believe in them.
Never look down on someone unless you are helping them up. We like to think of life as a
meritocracy( 精 英 统 治 ) , so it’s easy to look down on someone who isn’t as successful or
accomplished or well educated as you are. But you have no idea how far that person has already
climbed or where they will end up. Time could easily reverse(颠倒) your positions, 39 .
Appreciate those who have supported you, forgive those who have hurt you, help those who
need you. 40 Treat all people -including yourself-wit love and compassion, and you can't go
wrong.
Treat people the way you want to be treated and life will instantly get better.
A. so be sure you treat everyone with dignity.
B. therefore, cherish every person you meet.C. Never fix them when they make mistakes.
D. Don't tell them how to get there but show the way.
E. instead, guide them to the source of their own.
F. Business is complicated, life is complex and leadership is difficult.
G. Every person you meet will have a role in your life, be it big or small

We've all turned to sad music to make us feel ___61__ (good)at some point in our lives, but
why does doubling down on the sadness help drag us out of the mire(泥沼)?
A new study sheds light on what's going on inside our brains __62 __we match our music to
our feelings. It looks like sad music can be enjoyable-rather than __63 __(simple) depressing-
because it triggers positive memories that can help to lift our mood. Psychologist Adrian North from
Curtin University in Australia says there __64__ (be)two groups of possible __65__ (explain)for
why we enjoy listening to sad music like this: one from social psychology, and one from cognitive
neuroscience(认知神经学).
In terms of social psychology, one way of __66__(think) about this is that we feel much better
about __67__ (we) if we focus on someone who's doing even worse, a process known as downward social comparison. Everything's going to be okay, because this person __68 __(have) an even worse
day than you are.
Another theory from social psychology is that people like to listen __69___ music that mirrors
the tone of their current life circumstances-the songs act as __70 ___sort of tuning fork(音叉) for
our own situations and they resonate(共鸣) with us.
