and do something good.”
★ Richard Liu, founder and chief executive officer of JD

world? That's the topics of the Davos this year. I think a very important thing in business is

those mean opportunity,” she said.

With the commercialization of so many holidays, we often forget the true meaning of
the day we are celebrating. The National Retail Federation estimated that in 2018, the
average person spent more than $180 on Mother’s Day with a total forecast at over $23
billion spent on the day. Mother’s Day, the day to honor the special women in our lives, was
initially created as something very different.
The origins of Mother’s Day can date back to ancient Greek and Roman times when
festivals honored the mother goddesses Rhea and Cybele. Later, 16th century England
celebrated Mothering Sunday with celebrations on the fourth Sunday of Lent. In America,
our tradition began in 1908 with a woman named Anna Jarvis. While not a mother herself,
she established the day to honor her mother, Ann Reeves Jarvis, who had passed away
three years before.
This commitment to pay honor to and help other women ran in the Jarvis family.
Living in West Virginia before the Civil War, Ann had an idea for a community-service
based program to help mothers in need of assistance. This concept developed into the
Mother’s Day Work Clubs, a program that taught women how to care for their children.
In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson declared Mother’s Day an official holiday. The
yearly celebration would take place on the second Sunday in May. Anna’s original idea of
Mother’s Day was a day to honor her mother Ann, but once it became a nationally
recognized day, things changed dramatically. The idea of celebrating mom on Mother’s
Day caught on quickly and became heavily commercialized with cards and flowers.
After seeing a Mother’s Day Salad on the menu in the John Wanamaker tearoom(茶馆)
in Philadelphia in the early 1900s, Anna realized the day had become nothing but a
marketing scheme. She then began to hold protests, and demand face-to-face meetings with
the president.
In the end, she spent decades fighting a no-win battle to claim back the day as her own
using every penny of hers. She died at age 84 in 1948, blind and alone in a hospital.
24. Why did Anna hold protests?
A. Because she hoped to meet with the president.
B. Because Mother’s Day Salad appeared on the menu without her permission.
C. Because she would fight a no-win battle to claim back the day as her own.
D. Because Mother’s Day had been heavily commercialized.
25. Which is the correct order of the following events?4
① Mother’s Day became an official holiday
② England celebrated Mothering Sunday
③ Mother’s Day became heavily commercialized
④ Anna Jarvis established Mother’s Day
A. ④①②③ B. ②④①③ C. ④②③① D. ②④③①
26. How does the passage mainly develop?
A. By providing examples. B. By making comparisons.
C. By following the order of time. D. By following the order of space.
27. Which is the best title for this passage?
A. How Mother’s Day Commercialized?
B. Why the Founder of Mother’s Day Came to Regret Her Invention?
C. How We Deal with the Commercialization of Mother’s Day Correctly?
D. Why Mother’s Day Commercialized?
C
Language learning apps are very popular now and offer opportunities to learn
vocabulary and practice grammar. But there has been a discussion about just how effective
such apps can be.
Among the most popular apps are Duolingo and Busuu. A previous research found
positive results on the use of them. But it mainly concentrates on studies with learners who
had signed up for language courses and these apps worked as an after-class support, so the
results were not always reliable. A recent study of 4,095 Busuu users has been carried out to
find out if users can actually learn a language with an app.
Busuu provides learning materials for 12 different languages. It offers special models
where some contents are available for free while some contents are not, We find that its
users are an even mix of men and women. More than half consider themselves to be at the
beginner level as there is a decrease in users as their language levels go up. Most people use
the app because of personal interest, or because they want to study or live abroad. Females
tend to use it less often but for longer periods of time than male users.
Getting any feedback on Busuu depends on whether your answer is correct or not.
While it is helpful, this is not the sort of feedback language teachers prefer, as it does not
explain why the answer is right or wrong. In spite of this, feedback in the app is very highly
rated.
More than 92% of the people state that the app has met their expectations and 86%
consider the app as very good or good. In fact, more than 80% of the users surveyed
strongly agree that using the app has helped them improve their knowledge of the language
they are learning.
Besides, language learning apps also create an environment where mistakes are only
known to the users, and this can address the performance anxiety that many learners
suffer from when asked to speak a foreign language. So language teachers should
encourage their students to use them to do the grammar work, leaving precious class time
for more language communication.
28. What can we learn about the app Busuu from the text?
A. All the contents are free to use. B. Most users consider it satisfying.
C. It’s used by more advanced learners. D. It’s more popular with female learners.
29. Why weren’t the results of the former research always dependable?
A. Because it used out-of-date methods.
B. Because it just focused on positive results.
C. Because it was only carried out before class.
D. Because it only considered users of a limited type
30. Which of the following can probably replace the underlined word address?5
A. Write down. B. Turn to. C. Deal with. D. Speak of.
31. What is the main idea of the text?
A. Language learning apps are effective and satisfactory to language learners.
B. Students won’t suffer anxiety in learning languages by using Busuu.
C. Language learning apps are very popular with most language teachers.
D. Students should be required to use apps for homework after class.
D
It hurts to keep secrets. Keeping something secret is associated with lower well-being,
worse health, and less satisfying relationships. Research has linked secret-keeping to
increased anxiety, depression, symptoms of poor health, and even the more rapid
progression of disease. There is a seemingly obvious explanation for these harms: Hiding
secrets is hard work.
New research, however, suggests that the harm of secrets doesn’t really come from the
hiding after all. The real problem with keeping a secret is not that you have to hide it, but
that you have to live with it, and think about it.
The concept of secrecy might evoke(唤起) an image of two people in conversation, with
one person actively hiding from the other. Yet, such hiding is actually uncommon. It is our
tendency to mind-wander to our secrets that seems most harmful to well-being. Simply
thinking about a secret can make us feel unreal. Having a secret return to mind, time and
time again, can be tiring. When we think of a secret, it can make us feel isolated and alone.
To better understand the harms of secrecy, my colleagues and I first set out to
understand what secrets people keep, and how often they keep them. We found that 97
percent of people have at least one secret at any given moment, and people have, on average,
13 secrets. A survey of more than 5,000 people found that common secrets include
preferences, desires, issues surrounding relationships, cheating and violations of others’
trust.
Across several studies, we asked participants to assess how frequently they hid their
secret during conversations with others, and also how frequently they thought about the
secret outside of social communications. We found that the more frequently people simply
thought about their secrets, the lower their well-being. The frequency of active hiding when
communicating with others, however, had no relationship to well-being.
Following up this research, a new paper shows why thinking about secrets is so
harmful. Turning the question around, we examined the consequences of telling secrets. We
found that when a person tells a secret to a third party, it does not reduce how often they
have to hide the secret from others who are still kept in the dark. Rather, it reduces how
often their mind wanders toward the secret in irrelevant moments.
32. How did the author do the research with his colleagues?
A. By doing experiments themselves.
B. By comparing the participants.
C. By analyzing some samples.
D. By analyzing the participants’ replies.
33. According to the passage, which of the following is really harmful?
A. Always keeping the secrets in mind.
B. Hiding the secrets from others.
C. Assessing the frequency of hiding secrets.
D. Telling a third party the secrets.
34. In the passage, the author mainly intends to tell us .
A. how we should keep the secrets properly
B. whether we should hide the secrets from others
C. why the secrets we keep are hurting us6
D. what leads to our healthy problems
35. What will probably be talked about in the next paragraph of the passage?
A. The proper ways that we can hide the secrets from others.
B. The detailed reasons why telling a secret to a third person can make our mind healthier.
C. The correct ways that we can solve our healthy problems successfully in our daily life.
D. The main reasons why we should think more about the secrets.

Time is something that we all are taking for granted these days. We spend hours
watching TV or playing mobile games, thinking that this is just normal. I find this a waste
of time. 36 Every second is valuable and we should rethink of ways of spending our
time.
Firstly, spend time in doing things that really matter. Spend time with your family and
friends. Enjoy a nice hot meal and eat it slowly. Give yourself time to play and spend
enough time in sleeping. 37 But the truth is the little things matter most in life.
Secondly, you have to know what is done cannot be undone. Do not allow your mind to
stay in the past. Every day is a new adventure. 38 It may not be an opportunity like
an immediate get-rich chance, but it may be an opportunity for new experiences.
39 If you have only one chance to do something for someone, why not do it to the
best of your ability? It should not matter whether you are being rewarded or not. You will
take pride in your work because you’ve done your best. Trust me, quality efforts will be
rewarded in time.
Lastly, every moment you spend in doing things is the time taken from your life. Don’t
waste your time away working day and night just for money. 40 The value of your
time is measured by how you spend it and whom you choose to spend it with.
A. You have to keep your eyes and ears open to the new opportunity.
B.You will get whatever you want from working.
C. It is hours of our lives that we can never get back.
D. Spend more time on the important tasks instead of time-wasters.
E. Little things like this may seem meaningless.
F.Do your best in every task as if the world will end tomorrow
G. That is not your life’s worth.

The most delicious memories seem to happen during the holidays. And like a squirrel
preparing for winter, I put them away to enjoy slowly during the long winter months.
Sometimes, I enjoy them for years.9
Among them are sweetest recollections: my little girls at the church play and the
moment they got their first angel wings; a pink dolly stroller ( 手 推 车 ) wheeled into the
bedroom with a tiny voice declaring, “Look what Santa Claus brought me!”; or New Year’s
Paragraph 2:
In the humor of the moment, I felt something hard to swallow.
snowmen wearing bright scarves borrowed from a grandma’s fragrant drawer.
But there is one memory that is a little bittersweet -sort of like 80% dark chocolate, but
still good for you.
This story brings to mind a colorful candy dish and a very little boy. The occasion was
somewhere between Christmas and New Year’s when a few candies in a dish remained
behind, a bright spot in dull winter gray.
Wrapped in December’s chill, my then 3-year old grandson, Justin, and I had dashed
from the warmth of my parked car into the building where I planned to take care of a few
work-related tasks.
A smiling secretary greeted us as we brushed the snowflakes and rubbed our hands to
chase the cold. Then with my grandchild close to my side, I busied myself, finishing the
items of business that had brought us there. But while his hand remained in mine, his eyes
fell on the candy dish sitting nearby.
As we turned to leave, the thoughtful and very observant woman behind the desk asked
the question all children wait to hear.
“Honey,” the kindly woman said, peering over her glasses at Justin. “Would you like a
candy bar?” she asked, her hand pushing the dish close for an easier reach.
The boy looked up questioningly, his eyes meeting mine, permission hanging in the air.
A slight nod from me and then a hurried beeline to the candy dish followed. One candy bar
was already in his hand.
Paragraph 1:
“Justin!” I said from the doorway.
请同学们将下面的“参考答案”(含标点符号)认真规范地抄写在答卷纸指定
区域。
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
“Justin!” I said from the doorway. By this time his pudgy hands had grabbed one -- and
only one -- and he made his way back to me. My voice was somewhat serious as I realized
manners had been forgotten. “What do you say?” Hearing this, the little boy turned on his
heel, promptly returning to the candy dish. “Get Grandma one, too!” I laughed. The
secretary laughed. And even little Justin innocently giggled at the fun we were having.
Paragraph 2:
In the humor of the moment, I felt something hard to swallow. There was a truth that
lingered long after the strawberry candy taste had disappeared. What example had I set
for this little one while often in my care? Was he learning more about “getting” and less
about gratitude - that heartfelt “thank you”? In the years since, I’ve always loved to
remember that moment. But one gift I hope we all leave with our children is the
importance of a grateful heart. Really, what could be sweeter?
