One ambitious high school student knew exactly how to show his family that he got accepted into his dream college-by surprising them on Christmas Day.
Barrington Lincoln, class president at Lutheran High School North in Ferguson, got accepted
into Morehouse College in Atlanta back on Dec. 15. But for months, he knew he wanted to make the
news known in a big way to his mother and aunt, Lincoln told ABC News. "I thought of the surprise
in October," he said, adding that once he got accepted he would purchase two school T-shirts from
Morehouse's online store.
On Christmas Day, in a now video on Twitter, Lincoln, 17, gifted his mom Lisa McDonald and
his aunt Shirley Gray the T-shirts with the school’s name on it. When the two sisters opened the
gifts, they had no idea what they meant.
In the video, Lincoln nudges(用肘轻推)his family, "You know what that means right? I got in!"
While McDonald falls heavily on the couch in delight, Gray asks, "You've been holding out on us?"
"I didn't expect anything like that," McDonald told ABC News. "It's so satisfying to see him get
the return on his studying." "He always wanted to be the first in line and help everybody stay in
line," his mother added.
McDonald said it's especially sweet since she had to work an extra job to afford his private
school after his father, a former Marine, passed away in 2015. Lincoln was only 15.
"All kids need to have quality education," the mother added. "I am putting an investment (投
资)in his future."

C. You've been playing a joke with two of us. D. You've been keeping it a secret from us.
27. What can we infer from the text?

More than one billion young people risk damaging their hearing through the overuse of
smartphones and other audio devices, the UN warned Tuesday, proposing new safety standards for
safe volume levels.
Currently, about five percent of the global population, or some 466 million people, including 34
million children, suffer from disabling hearing loss. Young people are particularly likely to develop
such risky listening habits. Around half of those between the ages of 12 and 35, or 1. 1 billion
people, are at risk due to "long and severe exposure to loud sounds, including music they listen to
through personal audio devices." the UN health agency said.
In a bid to safeguard hearing, the World Health Organization and International
Telecommunications Union issued an international standard for the manufacture and use of audio
devices. WHO considers a volume above 85 decibels for eight hours or 100 decibels for 15 minutes
as unsafe. The safe listening devices and systems standard calls for a "sound allowance" software to
be included in all audio devices. to track the volume level and duration of a user's exposure to sound,
and to evaluate the risk posed to their hearing. This system could alert a user if they have dangerous
listening habits.
WHO is also calling for parental as well as automatic volume controls on audio devices to
prevent dangerous use. While some smartphones and other audio devices already offer some of these
features, the UN would like to see a uniform standard used to help protect against disabling hearing
loss.
"Think of it like driving on a highway, but without a speedometer in your car or a speed limit,"
Shelly Chadha of the WHO told reporters in Geneva. "What we've proposed is that your
smartphones come fitted with a speedometer, with a measurement system which tells you how much
sound you're getting and tells you if you are going over the limit".
28. What is the purpose of proposing new safe volume standards?
A. To warn people of dangerous listening habits.
B. To help protect against disabling hearing loss.
C. To promote the development of audio devices.
D. To prevent the manufacture and use of audio devices.29. Where can you find the data that best supports "young people risk damaging their hearing
through the overuse of smartphones"?
A. In paragraph 2. B. In paragraph 3. C. In paragraph 4. D. In paragraph 5.
30. What do we know about safe volume levels according to paragraph 3?
A. It is safe to listen to music under any circumstances.
B. It is important to keep track of the risk for the users.
C. It is necessary to have users alerted by their parents.
D. It is acceptable to keep the volume at 90 decibels for 15 minutes.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Turning Down the Volume. B. Making Good Use of Smartphones.
C. The Rise and Fall of Audio Devices. D. The Safety Standards for Volume Levels.
D
Although toys' packaging says it's' educational, it doesn't make it so. That's the finding from a
new study in JAMA Pediatrics that found some toys being marketed as language promoters got in
the way of learning.
Research shows that for kids to understand, speak and eventually read or write a language, they
need to hear it-lots of it. And it's' never too early for parents and to caregivers to get talking. That
explains the booming industry in talking electronic toys that claim to help kids learn language.
Professor Anna Sosa, of Northern Arizona University, led the study and says she gave families
three different kinds of toys to play with: books, traditional toys like humble blocks and a shape
sorter, and electronic toys. Sosa says she picked those toys because they are advertised in their
packaging as language-promoters for babies between the ages of 10 and 16 months.
"We had a talking on farm-animal names and things." Sosa says of the electronic toys. "We had
a baby cell phone. And we had a baby laptop. So you open the cover and start pushing buttons, and it
tells you things. The parent-child couples were asked to play separately with each type of toy over
the course of three days."
"When there's something else that's doing some talking, the parents seem to be sitting on the
sidelines and letting the toy talk for them and respond for them," Sosa says. "That's bad because the
best way a toy can promote language in infants and toddlers is by stimulating interaction between
parent and child. There's simply no evidence that a young child can learn language directly from a toy. It isn't responsive enough. It isn't social.”
As for the other toys, traditional blocks and puzzles stimulated more conversation than the
electronic toys, and books outscored them all. But don't underestimate the humble block. While
traditional toys fell short of books in interaction quantity, Sosa notes, they kept pace in terms of
quality.
32. What is the finding of the research led by Professor Anna Sosa?
A. Toy industry is facing new challenge in marketing.
B. Kids should be taught to learn with toys as early as possible.
C. People might be misled by the statements of some toy makers.
D. Parents need to be cautious when choosing toys for their kids.
33. According to the passage, why are talking electronic toys so popular?
A. Because they represent the latest creations.
B. Because they arouse the interest learning.
C. Because they are used as an educational tool.
D. Because they are easy for the kids to control.
34. The passage implies that it is necessary for the parents .
A. to share their experiences of reading with their kids
B. to spare more time to stay with their kids at home
C. to encourage their kids to attend social activities
D. to get involved in the conversations on with their kids
35. What is the author's attitude to electronic toys as language promoters?
A. Critical. B. Sceptical. C. Supportive. D. Objective.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余
选项。
Can a howl of chicken soup help fight a cold?
Can a bowl of chicken soup help fight a cold? Maybe. But will going outside with wet hair
make you sick? No. 36 Here are some more.
Feed a cold, starve a fever. Being sick often makes you cat less. But force-feeding won't help.
What will help is drinking more water and getting enough calories. A 2008 study found that mice having flu took longer to recover and were more likely to suffer ill effects if they were dieting. 37
VicKs VapoRub( 薄 荷 )in your socks treats coughs. A widely passed email once suggested
putting Vicks VapoRub on feet at night and covering them with socks to treat coughs. 38
VapoRub, which is usually used on a child's chest or throat to reduce cough, would not work in your
socks. Still, some fans stand by this treatment.
39 Colds and flu are usually caused by viruses. They do spread during cold-weather
seasons, but you're more likely to pick them up inside than out. In fact, going outside and taking
more exercise-and not just during cold and flu season-may help prevent sickness.
A wet head can make you sick. You'll probably feel cold if you don't blow your hair dry on a
cold day, but not much else will happen. 40 Unless you are so cold that you get a low
temperature, which could make you sensitive to flu, wet hair or clothes won't increase your
possibility of catching a cold.
A. It became an Internet popularity
B. You'll get sick if you don t wear a coat
C. Again, colds are caused by a virus.
D. That's just an incorrect traditional belief in cold.
E. But you have to actually wear it for the health benefits
F. Experts suggest adding medicines three times a day to your meals
G. The researchers' suggestions is to stop dieting until after flu season.

Over the years I've been teaching kids about a simple but powerful concept-the ant
philosophy(哲学), an 61 (amaze) four-part philosophy.
First, ants never quit. If they're heading somewhere and you try to stop them, they'll climb over.
They'll climb under, or they'll climb around. They never quit 62 (look) for a way to get where
they 63 (suppose) to go! Second, ants think about winter and summer. They are always
gathering in their winter food in the middle of summer and they are making 64 (prepare) for
the long cold winter. So you have to think about storms in summer; think about rocks 65 you
enjoy the sand and sun. Third, ants think about summer all winter. During the winter, they remind
66 , "This won't last long and we'll soon be out of here." On 67 first warm day, the ants are
out. If it 68 (turn) cold again, they'll dive back down. But they come out again if it is warm.
Last, how much will an ant gather during the summer to prepare for the winter? All that it 69
(possible) can. 70 you can learn from the ant philosophy is: Never give up, look ahead, stay
positive and do all you can.

Good morning, everybody. My topic for today is "How Americans Value Time". Americans
think a great deal of time. From childhood they learn value time. As children, they are teaching to be
on time to attend school, to do work and to do nothing. When they are having the good time, they
say that time flies. When a person is dying, they say he is living on borrowing time. A working American has to work devotedly for 8 hours a (lay and 40 hours a week. In his spare time, he also
works hardly for more money. At weekends work even fills with their activities. In the street you can
hardly see one which walks leisurely. Actually, they are almost flying.

interaction between parent and child.(因为玩具促进婴幼儿语言能力的最佳
方式是刺激父母和孩子之间的互动),由此可推知,对于父母来说参与到和孩子的
会话中是有必要的,故选 D。
35.A【解析】 观点态度题。根据本文的第一段的 That's the finding from a new
study in JAMA Pediatrics that found some toys being marketed as
language promoters got in the way of learning.(该研究发现,一些作为语
言促进剂销售的玩具妨碍了儿童的学习)由此可知,本文作者对电子玩具促进语
言发展的态度是批判的,故选 A。
36.D【解析】 前句:鸡汤也许能抵御感冒,但是湿着头发出去会生病吗?下句
“No.” 否定了这种说法。后句“Here are some more ”,这里 more 指的是更多
类似于这种传统的错误说法,空句起到承上启下的作用,所以应选 D。
37.G【解析】 总结句 根据前句“A 2008 study found that mice having flu took
longer to recover and were more likely to suffer ill effects if they
were dieting.”研究发现生病时节食使康复更慢而且会带来副作用,不难推出下
句,研究者建议流感季节过后再节食,故 G 为正确答案。
38.A【解析】 前句“A widely passed email once suggested putting Vicks
VapoRub on feet at night and covering them with socks to treat coughs”
中的 A widely passed email 建议薄荷治咳嗽的疗法和后句 VapoRub, which is
usually used on a child’s chest or throat to reduce cough, would not work
in your socks. 薄荷的实际涂在小孩胸部或喉咙上来减弱咳嗽,晚上把薄荷膏敷在穿着袜子的脚上是不起作用的,a widely passed email 与 an Internet
popularity 相对应,故选 A。
39.B【解析】 句首概括段落。此题最难,但分析文章结构,本篇文章结构为总
分分分,从前两段和最后一段每段句首都是养生误区可知此处应填错误认识。下
句 Colds and flu are usually caused by viruses.病毒在寒冷季节易传播,但
在家比在外更可能染上病毒,出去并锻炼有助于预防疾病,和是否穿大衣没有关
系 ,故选 B。
40.C【解析】 首句谬误湿头会生病,后面说明除非你很冷才会对流感敏感,否则

when/as
66. themselves 67. the 68. turns 69. possibly 70. What
61.amazing【解析】 考查动词的现在分词形式。动词可以有两种分词形式,现
在分词形式主要表示主动,用作形容词一般表示物的特性或功能,通常译为“使
人……,令人……”。动词的过去分词形式,通过表示被动,用作形容词表示人的
感受,通常译为“感到……的”。这里用 amazing 来形容“哲学”,故用现在分词
形式作形容词。故填 amazing。
62.looking【解析】 考查 quit 的用法。quit doing sth 放弃/停止做某事。所
以 look 要用 ing 形式,即 looking。
63.are supposed 【解析】 考查 supposed 的用法。be supposed to do sth 应该
做某事。所以 suppose 要用被动形式,即 are supposed。
64.preparations【解析】 考查固定搭配。prepare 准备(动词) 。Preparation
准备(可数名词) 。make preparations for 做好……的准备。句意:他们总是在仲夏的时候,为准备冬天的食物,为漫长而寒冷的冬天做准备。故填 preparations
65.when/as 【解析】 考查连词的用法。因此,你必须考虑夏天的暴风雨:当你
享受阳光和沙滩的时候,考虑砂石。“当…时”,可以用时间连词 when 或者 as。故
填 when/as。
66.themselves【解析】 考查反身代词。在冬天的时候,他们会提醒他们自己。
故填 themselves。
67.the【解析】 考查定冠词 the 的用法。定冠词 the 在句中通过表示已经出现
的人或物,表示特指。早第一天温暖的一天,蚂蚁们都会出来。这里特指第一暖
和的一天。故填 the。
68.turns【解析】 考查一般现在时的用法。在 if 引导的条件状语从句中,从句
用一般现在时表示条件,主句用将来时表示结果。如果天气再一次变冷,他们将
会潜回去。故填 turns。
69.possibly【解析】 考查副词的用法。Possible“可能的”,用来修饰名词。
possibly “可能地”,一般用来修饰动词或者形容词。这里是一个省略句,省略
掉 can 后面的动词,而修饰动词要用副词。故填 possibly。
70.What【解析】 考查 what 引导的主语从句。what 引导的主语从句中,what 在
从句中作主语,表示“你所……的”。你可以从蚂蚁哲学中学到的是:永远不要放
弃,向前看,保持积极的心态,做你所能做的所有。故填 What。

Good morning, everybody. My topic for today is “How Americans Value
Time”. Americans think a great deal of time. From childhood they learn
∧value
About to
time. As children, they are teaching to be on time to attend school,
to
taught
do work and to do nothing. When they are having the good time, they
say
everything athat time flies. When a person is dying, they say he is living on
borrowing time. A working American has to work devotedly for 8 hours
a
borrowed
day and 40 hours a week. In his spare time, he also works hardly for
more
or hard
money. At weekends work even fills with their activities. In the
street you can hardly see one which walks leisurely. Actually, they
are almost

flying.

Dear Sam,
I’m extremely sorry to learn that you are so upset about the rapid
spread of the novel coronavirus all over the world .Actually, it’s quite
common for everyone. As for it,I’d like to offer you some practical
advice.
To begin with, try to avoid crowded places , parties and outdoor
activities as required . Besides ,it’s vital to increase prevention and
self-protection by washing your hands regularly and wearing surgical masks when going out .Last but not least, it would be a good idea to
take proper exercise to strengthen your immune system to fight against
the virus. I’m firmly convinced that with all nation’s joint efforts the
virus can be controlled in the end .
I hope you may find my suggestions useful. Wish you lucky and
healthy !
Yours
Lihua
