Throughout history, music spread among people of different cultures. In today's technological advanced society, however, people spread music online, sometimes without an artist's permission. This can lead to many problems, and music companies are now cracking down on this practice. Sharing music online without permission is theft.
Sharing music online prevents recording companies from making money from their efforts. They say that sharing music online has resulted in a huge drop in profits and sales over the past 10 years. People who find music for free online are not paying for CDs or every piece of music downloaded. To truly understand the influence of music piracy (盗版行为) on creators, one must understand how many people are involved in the recording process. For the sale of each album, profits must be shared among musicians, sound engineers, music producers, managers, advertisers, and the company selling the product. Many people believe sharing music only affects the recording artist, but the reality is that sharing hurts business for all companies involved.
There are many people who don't see the harm in sharing music online and even think they have the right to do it. One online blogger states that he originally paid for an entire CD and that he should be able to do with the material whatever he wants. While he may have legally paid for the music, he does not have the right to share it without permission, which means people like the blogger are thieves.
Although we don't spread music the same way we did before, there's no doubt that people around the world love to share music. However, Internet piracy will prevent musicians from continuing producing albums for fear of theft. Therefore, if people want to continue listening to their favorite artists, they need to buy their music so that artists will make enough profits to continue their music careers.
1.What does the underlined phrase "cracking down on" in Paragraph 1 most probably mean
A.Bringing up carefully. B.Speaking highly of.
C.Dealing seriously with. D.Destroying completely.
2.What can be learned from Paragraph 3
A.All bloggers are acting like thieves.
B.Once paying for a CD, you can treat it at will.
C.Many people have difficulty understanding CDs.
D.People who share music online without permission can be called thieves.
3.What can we learn from the passage
A.Sharing music online affects a lot of people.
B.Artists are taking action to protect their right.
C.Sharing music online increases sales of music CDs.
D.A person who buys a CD has the right to share it online with others.
4.What is the authors attitude toward music piracy
A.Indifferent. B.Favorable. C.Disapproval. D.Skeptical.
C
AUSTRALIAN adults want to see "life skills" introduced into school curriculums (课程), including money management, job preparation and domestic tasks. New research from Monash University showed Australian adults also widely supported the inclusion of technology, coding and artificial intelligence subjects to school curriculums to prepare them for future jobs.
Co-author Professor Neil Selwyn said the survey results of more than 2,000 Australians had taken himself and Dr Deana Leahy by surprise. "The life skills — I wasn't expecting that at all," he said. Those quizzed were asked to rate the value of a list of subjects already in the curriculums, but were also given an open space to write what they thought should be included. Prof. Selwyn said people called for schools to teach financial skills, budgeting, cooking and doing taxes. "You could argue that these are things people should be learning themselves, or learning from their families," Prof. Selwyn said. "But we've got to think forward in terms of the skills people will need for jobs and their ways of living. "
One respondent (调查对象) said schools should introduce a "contemporary life skills" subject : "A compulsory 1 -hour class a week on skills is needed that parents seem continually unable to teach their kids". Suggestions for the class included resume writing, filing tax returns and health claims. Another respondent called for students to be taught "general life skills as unfortunately not enough kids will have parents to actually be bothered to educate them or simply parents don't know themselves".
Of the subjects, maths was the highest ranked (75.5 percent), followed closely by English (74. 8 percent). And while science was the third highest ranked subject (46. 2 percent), it was more strongly supported by those who earned higher wages and were university educated compared to lower income earners.
Aspects of school life considered least important were students having fun, learning about things that interested them and being given the opportunity to be creative.
1.Why did the adults suggest adding "life skills" to school curriculums
A.To vary school curriculums. B.To enrich students' school life.
C.To save parents the trouble of educating kids. D.To make preparations for students for future work.
2.What did Prof. Selwyn think of the adults' suggestions
A.Reasonable. B.Ridiculous. C.Interesting. D.Impractical.
3.What does Paragraph 3 focus on
A.Differences of school subjects. B.Reasons for the school survey.
C.Opinions from the people surveyed. D.Investigations of the respondents.
4.What does the text mainly talk about
A.Schools should provide more practical classes.
B.Children should prepare themselves for the future.
C.Schooling is the most important aspect of human society.
D.Australians supported universities in introducing life skills into school projects.
D
People often think that blue light before bedtime can make it harder to sleep. It's true that the screens on phones, computers and televisions send out plenty of blue light. But if you focus on blue light as a major problem affecting your sleep or your eye health, it's time to look at it from another aspect.
As Phillip Yuhas, a professor of optometry and vision science, writes at The Conversation, blue light isn't a uniquely technological evil. It's part of sunlight. There are studies in mice that have found blue light can damage their eyes, but the eyes of the mice are different from ours. The pigments (色素)and the crystalline lens (晶状体)of our eyes actually block blue light fairly well — so in a sense, we already have built-in blue light-blocking protection.
Adding more protection isn't likely to help, though. You can buy glasses and screen filters (过滤器) that block Hue light, but Yuhas points out they are probably a waste of money. These products do not block out much blue light. The leading blue light-blocking anti-reflective coating, for example, blocks only about 15% of the blue light that screens send out. You could get the same reduction just by holding your phone another inch from your face.
The American Academy of Ophthalmology doesn't recommend blue light-blocking products, either. Instead, if you're concerned about your eye health or your ability to get to sleep on time, you already know what to do. Put the screens away at bedtime. Read a book or find something else to do. While you're using screens, take a 20-second break every 20 minutes to look at something 20 feet away (the "20-20-20" rule). If your eyes get dry when you look at screens for a long time, use eye drops.
1.What do people often think of blue light
A.It is magical and rare. B.It is the most part of sunlight.
C.It is harmful to people's skin. D.It is a factor affecting people's sleep.
2.What can we infer from the studies in Paragraph 2
A.Mice can see clearly in the dark.
B.Human eyes actually absorb blue light well.
C.Blue light does not seriously harm people's eyes.
D.Human eyes need extra protection against blue light.
3.What can we know about blue light-blocking products according to Yuhas
A.They block a little blue light. B.People should buy a better one.
C.They are highly thought of by experts. D.Most can prevent plenty of harmful lights.
4.What could be the best title for the text
A.What Will Blue Light Affect Actually B.Is Blue Light Really from Screens
C.Does Blue Light Affect People's Health D.Why Does Blue Light Make Sleeping Hard

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Alexis Vaughan, 17, sat quietly in the passenger seat of her dad's car. She stared out the window at the cornfields in Idaho.
Alexis, a high school student, let her eyes lazily scan the landscape of wildlife. Still, she was terrified when a deer came into view about 200 yards in front of them, just a few feet off the road. "Dad, there's a deer, there!" Alexis said, rolling down the window for a better look. It was a three-point buck(雄鹿)—a male deer with sharp, three-pronged antlers on each side of its head.
As the car moved closer, Alexis saw that the buck's head was bent toward the ground. Then she heard a scream. A few seconds later, she saw an arm fly up near the buck's head. Alexis realized the buck was attacking a woman. Sue Panter, a 44-year-old mother, had been out for her morning run. The buck had come out from the tall com and began following her. Having lived in rural Idaho for years, Sue knew that most bucks got frightened by humans. But this buck edged closer, even when she threw at it with a handful of gravel(石子).
Sue went to pick up a log to use for self-defense, and the buck charged. It lifted her with its antlers and threw her into the air. Sue could feel the horns punctured(刺穿) her leg and blood flowed down her leg. Within seconds, the buck had pushed her off the road and into the cornfield.
When Alexis and her father pulled up, the buck was rolling Sue like a rag doll. Alexis looked into the woman's terrified eyes, and before her father had even stopped the car, the 104-pound teenager jumped quickly out of the car and down the slope(斜坡) toward the buck. She was kicking and hitting it to get its attention. Then Michael, her father, who had followed his daughter, wrestled the buck away from the woman by holding the antlers.
Paragraph 1:
Alexis helped Sue up the slope. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Then she heard her father yell. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

2.考查推理判断。根据第二段的最后两句可知,蓝光会对老鼠的眼睛造成伤害,而老鼠的眼睛不同于人类的眼睛,实际上人类的眼睛能够很好地阻挡蓝光。故可以推断出C项符合题意。
3.考查细节理解。根据第三段的内容尤其是 "These products do not block out much blue light" 可知,Yuhas认为这些防蓝光产品并不会阻挡太多蓝光。故选A。

解析：①分析上文“When it comes to the benefit of volunteering, a lot of people think it's all about the warm feeling after helping someone.”和下文“It means that there are some surprising benefits for volunteers. For example, volunteering”可知，做志愿者的好处有很多，远远不止这一个好处，故D项合理。
②根据上文“It means that when you get involved in charity work, a lot of the time you will face challenges.(这就意味着你参与慈善活动时会遇到挑战)”可知，只有通过克服这样的挑战，你才能学会全新的技能，故本题F项正确。

第三部分 写作
第一节
答案：
Hello, everyone! I'm glad to have this chance to share some ideas about garbage classification with you.
In my understanding, the earth is home to every individual, and it's our duty to protect the environment voluntarily. By sorting the waste, we can not only reduce pollution but also conserve energy, which will pave the way for the recycling of valuable resources.
For the sake of our environment and life, we are expected to learn to sort the rubbish and make it a habit. Every individual can make a difference and let's bring a brighter future for the planet!
Thank you!
第二节
答案：
Paragraph 1:
Alexis helped Sue up the slope. With all her strength, she immediately seated her into their car, and then applied a clean towel from her bag to Sue's right leg tightly, which would help to stop its bleeding. Sue was covered with wounds from head to toe and she was in rags because of the severe attacks. Apparently Sue was too shocked by the accident to let out a word. Alexis talked softly to comfort the terrified woman and thought about how to help her father.
Paragraph 2:
Then she heard her father yell. Michael had been knocked to the ground, his right leg punctured by the buck. Alexis grabbed a hammer from the car and ran to where Michael lay on his back in the dirt. She beat the buck's head and neck, but the blows didn't work. Standing beside her father, Alexis could see that he was struggling to breathe. Turning the hammer around, Alexis shut her eyes and hit the buck's neck. When she opened her eyes, the buck was running away. Alexis got in the driver's seat and sped toward the hospital.

Throughout history, music spread among people of different cultures. In today's technological advanced society, however, people spread music online, sometimes without an artist's permission. This can lead to many problems, and music companies are now cracking down on this practice. Sharing music online without permission is theft.
Sharing music online prevents recording companies from making money from their efforts. They say that sharing music online has resulted in a huge drop in profits and sales over the past 10 years. People who find music for free online are not paying for CDs or every piece of music downloaded. To truly understand the influence of music piracy (盗版行为) on creators, one must understand how many people are involved in the recording process. For the sale of each album, profits must be shared among musicians, sound engineers, music producers, managers, advertisers, and the company selling the product. Many people believe sharing music only affects the recording artist, but the reality is that sharing hurts business for all companies involved.
There are many people who don't see the harm in sharing music online and even think they have the right to do it. One online blogger states that he originally paid for an entire CD and that he should be able to do with the material whatever he wants. While he may have legally paid for the music, he does not have the right to share it without permission, which means people like the blogger are thieves.
Although we don't spread music the same way we did before, there's no doubt that people around the world love to share music. However, Internet piracy will prevent musicians from continuing producing albums for fear of theft. Therefore, if people want to continue listening to their favorite artists, they need to buy their music so that artists will make enough profits to continue their music careers.

AUSTRALIAN adults want to see "life skills" introduced into school curriculums (课程), including money management, job preparation and domestic tasks. New research from Monash University showed Australian adults also widely supported the inclusion of technology, coding and artificial intelligence subjects to school curriculums to prepare them for future jobs.
Co-author Professor Neil Selwyn said the survey results of more than 2,000 Australians had taken himself and Dr Deana Leahy by surprise. "The life skills — I wasn't expecting that at all," he said. Those quizzed were asked to rate the value of a list of subjects already in the curriculums, but were also given an open space to write what they thought should be included. Prof. Selwyn said people called for schools to teach financial skills, budgeting, cooking and doing taxes. "You could argue that these are things people should be learning themselves, or learning from their families," Prof. Selwyn said. "But we've got to think forward in terms of the skills people will need for jobs and their ways of living. "
One respondent (调查对象) said schools should introduce a "contemporary life skills" subject : "A compulsory 1 -hour class a week on skills is needed that parents seem continually unable to teach their kids". Suggestions for the class included resume writing, filing tax returns and health claims. Another respondent called for students to be taught "general life skills as unfortunately not enough kids will have parents to actually be bothered to educate them or simply parents don't know themselves".
Of the subjects, maths was the highest ranked (75.5 percent), followed closely by English (74. 8 percent). And while science was the third highest ranked subject (46. 2 percent), it was more strongly supported by those who earned higher wages and were university educated compared to lower income earners.
Aspects of school life considered least important were students having fun, learning about things that interested them and being given the opportunity to be creative.
1.Why did the adults suggest adding "life skills" to school curriculums
A.To vary school curriculums. B.To enrich students' school life.
C.To save parents the trouble of educating kids. D.To make preparations for students for future work.
2.What did Prof. Selwyn think of the adults' suggestions
A.Reasonable. B.Ridiculous. C.Interesting. D.Impractical.
3.What does Paragraph 3 focus on
A.Differences of school subjects. B.Reasons for the school survey.
C.Opinions from the people surveyed. D.Investigations of the respondents.
4.What does the text mainly talk about
A.Schools should provide more practical classes.
B.Children should prepare themselves for the future.
C.Schooling is the most important aspect of human society.
D.Australians supported universities in introducing life skills into school projects.

People often think that blue light before bedtime can make it harder to sleep. It's true that the screens on phones, computers and televisions send out plenty of blue light. But if you focus on blue light as a major problem affecting your sleep or your eye health, it's time to look at it from another aspect.
As Phillip Yuhas, a professor of optometry and vision science, writes at The Conversation, blue light isn't a uniquely technological evil. It's part of sunlight. There are studies in mice that have found blue light can damage their eyes, but the eyes of the mice are different from ours. The pigments (色素)and the crystalline lens (晶状体)of our eyes actually block blue light fairly well — so in a sense, we already have built-in blue light-blocking protection.
Adding more protection isn't likely to help, though. You can buy glasses and screen filters (过滤器) that block Hue light, but Yuhas points out they are probably a waste of money. These products do not block out much blue light. The leading blue light-blocking anti-reflective coating, for example, blocks only about 15% of the blue light that screens send out. You could get the same reduction just by holding your phone another inch from your face.
The American Academy of Ophthalmology doesn't recommend blue light-blocking products, either. Instead, if you're concerned about your eye health or your ability to get to sleep on time, you already know what to do. Put the screens away at bedtime. Read a book or find something else to do. While you're using screens, take a 20-second break every 20 minutes to look at something 20 feet away (the "20-20-20" rule). If your eyes get dry when you look at screens for a long time, use eye drops.
1.What do people often think of blue light
A.It is magical and rare. B.It is the most part of sunlight.
C.It is harmful to people's skin. D.It is a factor affecting people's sleep.
2.What can we infer from the studies in Paragraph 2
A.Mice can see clearly in the dark.
B.Human eyes actually absorb blue light well.
C.Blue light does not seriously harm people's eyes.
D.Human eyes need extra protection against blue light.
3.What can we know about blue light-blocking products according to Yuhas
A.They block a little blue light. B.People should buy a better one.
C.They are highly thought of by experts. D.Most can prevent plenty of harmful lights.
4.What could be the best title for the text
A.What Will Blue Light Affect Actually B.Is Blue Light Really from Screens
C.Does Blue Light Affect People's Health D.Why Does Blue Light Make Sleeping Hard

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Alexis Vaughan, 17, sat quietly in the passenger seat of her dad's car. She stared out the window at the cornfields in Idaho.
Alexis, a high school student, let her eyes lazily scan the landscape of wildlife. Still, she was terrified when a deer came into view about 200 yards in front of them, just a few feet off the road. "Dad, there's a deer, there!" Alexis said, rolling down the window for a better look. It was a three-point buck(雄鹿)—a male deer with sharp, three-pronged antlers on each side of its head.
As the car moved closer, Alexis saw that the buck's head was bent toward the ground. Then she heard a scream. A few seconds later, she saw an arm fly up near the buck's head. Alexis realized the buck was attacking a woman. Sue Panter, a 44-year-old mother, had been out for her morning run. The buck had come out from the tall com and began following her. Having lived in rural Idaho for years, Sue knew that most bucks got frightened by humans. But this buck edged closer, even when she threw at it with a handful of gravel(石子).
Sue went to pick up a log to use for self-defense, and the buck charged. It lifted her with its antlers and threw her into the air. Sue could feel the horns punctured(刺穿) her leg and blood flowed down her leg. Within seconds, the buck had pushed her off the road and into the cornfield.
When Alexis and her father pulled up, the buck was rolling Sue like a rag doll. Alexis looked into the woman's terrified eyes, and before her father had even stopped the car, the 104-pound teenager jumped quickly out of the car and down the slope(斜坡) toward the buck. She was kicking and hitting it to get its attention. Then Michael, her father, who had followed his daughter, wrestled the buck away from the woman by holding the antlers.
Paragraph 1:
Alexis helped Sue up the slope. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Then she heard her father yell. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Hello, everyone! I'm glad to have this chance to share some ideas about garbage classification with you.
In my understanding, the earth is home to every individual, and it's our duty to protect the environment voluntarily. By sorting the waste, we can not only reduce pollution but also conserve energy, which will pave the way for the recycling of valuable resources.
For the sake of our environment and life, we are expected to learn to sort the rubbish and make it a habit. Every individual can make a difference and let's bring a brighter future for the planet!
Thank you!
第二节
答案：
Paragraph 1:
Alexis helped Sue up the slope. With all her strength, she immediately seated her into their car, and then applied a clean towel from her bag to Sue's right leg tightly, which would help to stop its bleeding. Sue was covered with wounds from head to toe and she was in rags because of the severe attacks. Apparently Sue was too shocked by the accident to let out a word. Alexis talked softly to comfort the terrified woman and thought about how to help her father.
Paragraph 2:
Then she heard her father yell. Michael had been knocked to the ground, his right leg punctured by the buck. Alexis grabbed a hammer from the car and ran to where Michael lay on his back in the dirt. She beat the buck's head and neck, but the blows didn't work. Standing beside her father, Alexis could see that he was struggling to breathe. Turning the hammer around, Alexis shut her eyes and hit the buck's neck. When she opened her eyes, the buck was running away. Alexis got in the driver's seat and sped toward the hospital.
