When Central Bucks South became one of the first Philadelphia-area high schools to close due to fear of novel coronavirus exposure in early March, 16-year-old sophomore Andrew Chen knew that things were not going to return to normal as quickly as some of his peers hoped.
But still, the change from seeing his friends on the swim team during daily practices to learning alone at home was jarring. “I only have three years here at South, and it pains me to see one of them being wasted,” Chen said.
The coronavirus has upended everyone’s lives, but for students, the disruption feels particularly acute. Schools closed and graduation ceremonies were canceled. Summer plans, like camps and internships, are up in the air.
But right now, many students are trying to stay connected, struggling with misinformation, and figuring out the best ways they can help through online method.
For Josh Harycki, 17, a senior student at the Shipley School in Philadelphia, the best way to contribute was to create a “social distancing pledge” for young people.
“I saw a lot of younger generations not paying attention,” he said. “They were still going out, hanging out with people. I thought that there had to be a way to reach younger folks, who were probably not watching the news.”
Harycki launched a call to action on social media and then built a website with a map that tracked the locations of people who’d signed the pledge. The site also shares links to accurate sources of information like the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Harycki knows that his peers are worried they can’t connect with their friends in the same way, so he created the social distancing pledge to stress that while everyone might be physically distant, they’re still connected.
“Part of what we’re highlighting is that you might feel like you’re the only one taking this seriously, but our map shows that you’re not alone,” he said.
24. What do the underlined words “up in the air” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. unnatural B. uncertain C. unnecessary D. unreasonable
25. Why does the author describe Andrew Chen’s experience in the text
A. To show how the coronavirus affected students’ lives.
B. To explain what worried students most when schools closed.
C. To illustrate the appropriate reaction to the closure of school.
D. To present the different views of students toward the coronavirus.
26. Who does Harycki mainly want to reach out to
A. Friends who are worried and bored.
B. Folks taking the coronavirus seriously.
C. Younger generations trying to contribute to society.
D. Young people who are not aware of the situation.
27. What’s Harycki’s purpose in creating the “social distancing pledge”
A. To track those people infected with the coronavirus.
B. To convince young people to stay at home.
C. To inform young folks of latest news about the coronavirus.
D. To show young people they shouldn’t be concerned about the coronavirus.

About a billion birds die from flying into buildings each year in North America. Suspicions have been that birds may regard the open areas behind glass as safe passageways. Or they may mistake the reflected trees for the real thing.
Researchers would like to reduce collisions, which requires a solid understanding about what makes a bird more or less likely to die by crashing into a building in the first place.
“There was relatively little known at a broad scale. Previous studies were at one small study site.'' Jared Elmore, a graduate student in natural resource ecology and management at Oklahoma State University. So he and his colleagues used a previously created data set of building collisions for birds at 40 sites throughout Mexico, Canada and the U.S.
The first finding was obvious: bigger buildings with more glass kill more birds. But the details were more remarkable. "We found that life history predicted collisions. Migrants（候鸟）， insect-eaters and woodland-inhabiting species collided more than their counterparts（同类）
Most migratory species travel at night, when lights near buildings can distract or disorient（使迷失方向）them. And Elmore thinks that insect-eating birds might be attracted to buildings because their insect prey（猎物）is attracted to the lights. He suspects that woodland species get tooled by the reflections of trees and bushes in the windows. The results arc in the journal Conservation Biology.
By understanding which birds are more likely to collide with buildings, researchers can perhaps determine the best way to adapt buildings, or their lighting, to help prevent such accidents. And by knowing risks, along with migration timing and behavior, building managers can better predict when birds are at their greatest danger — and improve lighting strategics accordingly.
Elmore's next project will use radar to help predict bird migrations. " I think that would maybe go a long way in terms of providing information to people, to the public, to building managers, on when they can get the most benefit in terms of lights-out policies."
28. What is the possible reason for birds' crashing into buildings
A. They didn't see the buildings.
B. They took reflections for reality.
C. They assumed the windows to be open.
D. They considered buildings as safe routes.
29. What is Jared Elmore's study different from the previous ones
A. It created a new data set
B. it went beyond national borders.
C. it covered a wider range of sites.
D. I’ll studied some specific bird species.
30. What was the most noticeable finding of Jared Elmore's study
A. Migratory species travel at night.
B. Birds tend to be misled by glasses.
C. Bigger buildings cause more collisions.
D. Birds, living habits give rise to collisions.
31. Which of the following can help reduce bird collision
A. Adjust the lightening system.
B. Attach radars to each building.
C. Adopt strict lights-out policies.
D. Ban using glasses on buildings.
D
A new study has found that cats can connect with people in the same way as dogs and children. In experiments in cats and humans, the researchers found that cats do show specific “attachment styles toward human caregivers”. This suggests that cats show some of the same social abilities that historically have only been linked to dogs.
In a statement, writers of the study said the evidence suggests that both cat and dog attachments to humans may represent the same kind of connection that exists between children and their caretakers. “Our study indicates that when cats live in a state of dependency with a human, that attachment(依恋) behavior is flexible and the majority of cats use humans as a source of comfort.”
The researchers designed experiments similar to the methods used to measure human attachment behavior. For example, other studies have observed how babies react to being reunited with caregivers after being separated for short periods. In this experiment, adult and young cats first spent two minutes in a room with their caregivers. The cats then spent two minutes in the room alone, followed by a two-minute reunion period with the caregivers.
About 70 cats were studied. The behavior of the animals was observed by experts who divided them into two groups. Sixty-four percent were judged to be “securely attached” to caregivers, while 36 percent were found to be “insecurely attached” to caregivers.
The cats with secure attachments showed several signs “reduced stress” levels. These cats were found to be more comfortable and effectively balance their attention between the person and their surroundings. “The majority of cats use their owner as a source of security. Your cat is depending on you to feel secure when they are stressed out,” researchers said. They added that the results showed that the level of secure and insecure attachments in cats is very close to those measured in human babies. In humans, research has found that 65 percent of babies are also securely attached to their caregivers.
32. What can we infer from the passage
A. Cats feel less secure when they stay with their caregivers.
B. Only dogs are much like children in the attachment to caregivers.
C. People used to think that only dogs were attached to their caregivers.
D. Cats and dogs have different ways to be attached to their caregivers.
33. How are cats attached to humans according to the experiment
A. Cats depend on humans in every way.
B. Cats feel less stressed with humans aside.
C. Most cats use humans as a source of comfort.
D. Most cats feel anxious with humans not present.
34. What could be the signs of the cats with secure attachments
A. They stayed close to their caregivers.
B. Their stress was obviously reduced.
C. They gave more attention to the surroundings.
D. They liked to be with children better than with adults.
35. Which column of the newspaper does this passage belong to
A. Science. B. Health C. Zoology. D. Entertainment.

At local memorial sites, Red Army-related plays bring history back to life, reported China Daily. The Zunyi Conference site is a part of the planned cultural park. Mou Xinyue,17, once volunteered as a tour guide at the spot.“ Many tourists made special trips to Zunyi from thousands of miles away, just to relive those hard but glamorous (富有魅力的) days," she told China Daily, “The red history makes Zunyi a big name across the country, and I believe the cultural heritage will bring my hometown an even brighter future.”

第四部分 写作
Dear Peter,
How is everything going In your last letter, you asked me about garbage classification in my community, so I’m writing to tell you some details about it.
The garbage classification activity was launched in our community last month. People are required to sort household garbage into four categories, each of which is supposed to be thrown into certain bins at certain times. Individuals who fail to do so will be fined. Although people were confused with the demanding garbage classification at the beginning, they are much better at sorting garbage now with the help of a special App. To make the garbage classification easier to achieve, more and more restaurants in our community are using environmentally friendly materials to deliver their food. The hotels in the neighbourhood also give priority to offering products made from recyclable materials.
Personally, I’m in full support of garbage classification because it contributes to arousing people’s awareness of protecting the environment. Hopefully my information is of help to you.Best wishes!
Yours ,
Li Hua
