It was late, about 10:15 p.m. Janice Esposito got off the train at Bellport, New York, went to her car and started driving home. She was so familiar with the route that she almost drove automatically: turned left to the Station Road, then another left onto Montauk Highway, and then—bam! When Esposito's car had just crossed the railroad tracks, it hit another vehicle and was pushed back onto the tracks. Injured but mostly shocked by the crash and by the airbags that popped up, she was stuck in the vehicle.
As it happened, Pete DiPinto was just about to go to sleep when he heard a sharp noise and saw the accident not far outside his bedroom window. As a volunteer firefighter and retired teacher, DiPinto, who was 65,fetched a flashlight and rushed out without hesitation. “Any firefighter would have done what I did,” he said. “We're always on duty.”
At first, he spotted the other car in the accident. After making sure that the driver was all right, DiPinto looked around and discovered Esposito's car straddling the railway tracks. And then he heard the bell ring, which signaled a train's arrival.
DiPinto rushed to Esposito's car and broke the window on the driver's side. Esposito looked up at him, with her eyes glazing over. “I don't know where I am,” she said.
“You're on the railroad tracks,”DiPinto yelled. “I have to get you off right now! The train was running toward them at a speed of some 105 kilometers per hour. The driver's door fail to be opened due to the collision(碰撞), so DiPinto quickly run to the other side and was able to open the door. He put the airbags aside, seized her arms, pulled her toward him across the passenger seat until finally got her out and walked her to safety as swiftly as possible. Several seconds later, the train crashed into the vehicle. “It was like a Hollywood movie,” DiPinto told reporters the next day.
“Last night,” said Gregory Miglino Jr.,Chief of the Department in South Country Ambulance, “the hero arrived in pajamas(睡衣裤), not in a fire truck.”
24.What can we know about the accident from Paragraph 1
A. Esposito's car hit another vehicle.
B. Esposito drove too fast.
C. Esposito didn't know the route well.
D. A running train crashed into Esposito's car.
25.How was Janice Esposito right after the accident

A. Through the window on the driver's side.
B. Through the door on the driver's side.
C. Through the window on the passenger's side.
D. Through the door on the passenger's side.
27.What did Gregory Miglino Jr. mean by “the hero arrived in pajamas, not in a fire truck”
A. DiPinto was not a professional firefighter.

C. DiPinto was a special firefighter who preferred wearing pajamas.
D. DiPinto was unable to find a fire truck when the accident happened.

“The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.” When it comes to device addiction, this may very well be the case. If you believe that how you engage with your smartphone has no impact on your children, think again.
One study looked at 200 families and noted that the children of parents with phone addictions were much more likely to have behavior issues. In short, this addiction led to “technoference”or interruption of everyday interactions between parents and kids. In some cases, this interruption happened in face-to-face conversations, and in other cases, the devices disrupted(干扰) playtime or meals. When this type of “technoference” occurred, parents rated their children as displaying more behavior problems, including whining, losing temper, sulking(生闷气), and becoming frustrated.
In addition, according to children development experts, there are bilateral(双边的) signaling systems that occur between adults and children, aiding the construction of the basic architecture of the brain. For example, babies and kids are highly engaged with the daily words of their parents that tend to happen with simplified grammar, a high-pitched tone, and exaggerated enthusiasm. This mode of relational conversation is incredibly important to a child's development.
With the arrival of smartphones, many parents are distracted and stuck in what experts are calling “continuous partial attention” mode. This leads to significant and repeated disruptions to the parent-child conversation flow, which can damage not only a child's language learning ability but also their school achievements overall.
While your habit may seem harmless, your kids may actually be copying your behavior and forming a dependence of their own. One study reported that some teenagers may spend up to 12 hours—half of an entire day—online and mindlessly swiping through social media apps without engaging in any one piece of content beyond a few seconds.
As a parent, the best thing you can do is lead by example. Try to limit time spent with technology, especially when it diverts(牵制) your attention from other priorities. Shut down smartphones at dinner. Set aside phone-free time each day to engage with your children without the distraction that technology brings. While you may not be able to completely cut ties with new modes of communication, you can be sure that your children get the one-on-one time they need to develop into healthy, happy adults.
28.Why does the writer start the passage with the quote “The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.”
A. To stress children will follow parents' example.
B. To provide evidence of device addiction.
C. To show the close bond between parent and children.
D. To highlight the final solution to device addiction.
29.Which is TRUE according to the studies in the passage
A. Children who use the phone tend to dose temper and become frustrated.
B. Children's poor school achievements are due to their addiction to social media.
C. The more engagement of parents, the better development of speech in children.
D. Children imitate parents' behavior but form their own harmless habits.
30.The underlined word “distracted” in the fourth paragraph means ________.
A. discouraged B. absent-minded C. disabled D. abnormal
31.In what tone does the writer speak to parents in the last paragraph
A. Disrespectful B. Apologetic C. Negative D. Friendly
D
Clocks around the world mark every passing second, minute and hour. But to humans, seconds of pain can feel like minutes, and hours spent at a party can end in a second.
The brain can stretch or squeeze the feeling of time for many reasons, including pleasure, pain, fear and age. Although the science behind this “subjective(主观的)time” is not fully understood, some research suggests that an additional factor might influence the subjective length of your life: your income.
Research already suggests that, on average, wealthy people live longer, biologically. Now, fresh research indicates that varied and novel experiences could create more “time codes(编码)” in the human brain as it processes(处理) memory formation. This, in turn, could mean that people who can afford to enjoy more vacations and hobbies, and who have more stimulating jobs, will recall having lived for a longer time on Earth.
“Even though time flies when you're having fun, when you look back on it, you can remember much more of this extended experience compared to a boring experience,” says Jorgen Sugar, a postdoctoral student at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology's Kavli Institute for Systems Neuroscience. He's part of a team of scientists investigating these mental time codes.
The idea that novelty can affect the experience of time also seems to fit cultures that don't measure time using clocks—many cultures rely on seasonal events to mark the flow of time. “Our experience of time does vary according to circumstances, and also according to the kind of rhythm of activity we engage in,” says Chris Sinha, a cognitive(认知) scientist working with Hunan University.
But other experts aren't convinced(使信服). According to Monica Capra, an economist with a background in neuro-economics at Claremont Graduate University, subjective time isn't well understood scientifically. Even if higher-paid jobs can lead to more new experiences, wealthy people aren't necessarily spending money that way. A millionaire, for example, may spend money on a fancy watch, but this isn't likely to change their feeling of time the way a vacation or even a low-cost hike would, she says.
Even though the human brain is the most complex biological system we know, researchers from many fields are still eager to uncover the mysteries of subjective time.
32.What do we know about “subjective” time from the passage
A. It has nothing to do with one's income.
B. Its pace is influenced by a person's mood.
C. It is a thing that is completely understood.
D. It marks every passing second for a person.
33.How can income influence a person, according to some researchers
A. Wealthy people tend to engage more in remembering things.
B. Wealthy people may feel life is relatively longer psychologically.
C. Wealthy people tend to have a better memory than poor people.
D. Wealthy people usually need more time to process memory formation.
34.What is Monica Capra's opinion
A. She is not convinced that money can extend subjective time.
B. She doesn't believe that wealthy people can buy good memories.
C. She thinks that the excitement of fun experiences can hardly wear off.
D. She doubts whether higher-paid jobs can lead to more new experiences.
35.What is the main idea of the passage
A. Researchers are exploring the mysteries of memory.
B. Many factors can influence how you feel time.
C. Your subjective time may depend on your income.
D. The brain is a complex biological system.

Lifelong learning is good for you
It is impossible for everyone to have access to additional formal education. Fortunately, many educational resources have made it easier for people to develop a habit of lifelong learning. For example, books, online courses and so on available. 36
37 In 2015 some researchers found people with a bachelor's degree can earn much more than those just with a high school degree. In 2014 a report said that 50% of jobs would become unnecessary by 2025 due to technological development. New technology changes the nature of work and we need continuous learning and personal growth to adapt ourselves to the changes.
Open-mindedness and curiosity are beneficial to your career. People who enjoy learning are more active at work than those who don't. Now think of the most admirable workmates you know. Do they tend to be knowledgeable about almost any topic of interest Do they make impressive speeches on the topics they know best 38 Those you admire most are those who seem most devoted to learning and personal growth.
Our ability to learn is a keystone of human motivation. Have you ever sat in a quiet place and finished a great novel Do you remember the feeling of achievement when you solve a challenging task Education may not always have influence on wealth, health or career. 39
There are many reasons why we should continue learning. Lifelong learning isn't just an economic necessity but a physical, emotional, and social one. 40 Once you catch them, you will get one of the most rewarding things in your life.
A. We live in an age full of opportunities for learning.
B. Educational level determines your competitiveness.
C. Your work performance depends on your educational input.
D. Do they seem open-minded and intellectually energetic
E. Catch them and you will be successful.
F. The following points are reasons why you should stick to lifelong learning.
G. But it would obviously contribute to the special qualities and uniqueness of each other.

Dear Mike,
How is everything going I'm writing to invite you to attend a paper-cutting exhibition which is going to be held in my neighborhood in celebration of the Chinese New Year.
Aimed at displaying the amazing folk art, the exhibition will be open from 9 a.m.to 5p.m. from this Monday to next Friday on Renmin Square. Apart from admiring a great number of wonderful paper-cutting works, beginners can even learn some basic skills of this traditional art at the exhibition. Since you are really interested in paper-cutting and always eager to know more about it, this is a rare chance that you can't miss.
I wonder if you'll be free this Sunday morning. If so, let's go to the exhibition together.
I'm looking forward to your early reply.
