Have you ever noticed that some people can eat what they want and stay in shape,while others carefully watch what they eat and still put on weight?How frustrating! However,scientists are beginning to believe that some people get the ability to stay thin from their parents.
Scientists say that when some people eat,their bodies will naturally store the excess energy from food as fat.These people gain weight if they eat more than they need each day.Meanwhile,other people eat more than they need but their bodies are able to “burn off ” the extra food without making fat,so they rarely have weight problems.
To show that this is true,scientists have experimented on laboratory mice.They gave the mice a special diet with a lot of fat.Some mice gained weight while the other mice stayed thin,even though both groups of mice ate the same amount of food and got the same amount of exercise.Scientists concluded that weight gain seemed to be influenced by genetic factors.They also believe they have now identified the genes that may cause this tendency.These genes,according to the scientists,get passed down the generations.Armed with this knowledge,they believe it may be possible to develop medicines that can target the genes and stop people from gaining weight.
The study of weight gain is becoming more important as the number of people who are overweight continues to grow.In the United States,over seventy percent of the population have weight problems.This means they are at risk of illnesses such as high blood pressure and heart disease.
Current medicines for weight control do not work very well because they can have serious side effects,such as heart problems.However,it takes a long time to develop and thoroughly test new drugs.Therefore,despite this breakthrough in the study of weight-loss drugs,scientists and health professionals all agree that currently the best way to control weight gain is to have a healthy,balanced diet and an active lifestyle with daily exercise.This will not only help people avoid becoming overweight,but also help them stay healthy and energetic.
1.According to the scientists,why do some people gain weight easily
A.Because their genes cause the tendency.
B.Because their bodies do not make fat.
C.Because their bodies store energy from food as fat.
D.Because they eat more than they need each day.
2.What do we know about the experiment
A.They did the experiment to find the genes that stop people from gaining weight.
B.They did the experiment to find the reason why people gain weight.
C.They did the experiment to show the importance of healthy food.
D.They did the experiment to show the importance of regular exercise.
3.What may lead to high blood pressure according to the study
A.The balanced diet.
B.The weight problems.
C.The lack of exercise.
D.The lack of drugs.
4.What is the purpose of the last paragraph of the text
A.To inform us of serious side effects of the weight-loss drugs.
B.To introduce a breakthrough of the weight-loss drugs.
C.To advise us to develop a healthy lifestyle.
D.To encourage us to develop and test new drugs.

Zhang Fan,36,a movie visual effects designer who returned to Beijing from New Zealand for work last year,was surprised by the improvement to the city’s air quality.“I remember the smell in the air and the frequent smoggy days before I left in 2013,after getting a job offer from a film company in New Zealand,”he said.Last year,a Chinese company offered Zhang a more promising position,so he returned,saying that he could find more opportunities in his line of work in Beijing than elsewhere.In addition to rapid economic development in the Chinese capital,he said the most impressive change is the local air quality.“People discussed air pollution a lot when I was in Beijing previously.Now,it seems that the topic has disappeared completely,as every day is good in terms of air quality,”Zhang said.“The sky in Beijing these days is so clear.”
On Jan.4,the municipal authorities in Beijing announced a comprehensive success in improving air quality,with the city’s annual average concentration of PM2.5 in the air falling to 33 micrograms per cubic meter,and ozone(臭氧) concentration dropping to 149 mcg per cubic meter last year.
Yu Jianhua,spokesman for the Beijing Municipal Ecology and Environment Bureau,said at a news conference,“This is a milestone for Beijing’s hard work in fighting air pollution and also means that the city has met its air quality target outlined in the 14th Five-Year Plan(2021-2025) ahead of schedule.Beijing has demonstrated to the world over the past 20 years that a mega city with a rapidly increasing GDP,vehicle count,population and energy consumption can move forward to cut air pollution effectively.The PM2.5 reduction over the past few years has surpassed that of developed countries during the same period.”
According to the Bureau,the city’s average concentration of PM2.5 dropped by 63 percent last year from 2013,an average annual reduction of about 8 percent.The city experienced 288 days of good air quality last year—up from 112 days in 2013—and just eight days of heavy air pollution.This achievement is clear to see and exciting,but it has not been easy work.
5.Why did Zhang Fan return to Beijing
A.He was tired of his life abroad.
B.He has a deep affection for the city.
C.The city’s air quality has improved.
D.A golden chance was offered to him.
6.How do the municipal authorities show the improvement in the city’s air quality

B.By using figures.
C.By offering experimental findings.
D.By citing personal experience.
7.What does the underlined word “mega” in paragraph 3 probably mean

You might have ever noticed how some people can effortlessly talk to anyone they meet,no matter how different their backgrounds are.Or you may have seen that one person who always offends someone,no matter what the topic of conversation is.These two situations describe how we can differ in our abilities to interact,get along with,and relate to others around us.In the same way that we vary in traditional academic competencies,we can vary in how socially competent we are.After years of academic research and development,this social ability is now commonly referred to as “social intelligence”.
Social intelligence is the ability to understand other people,how they work,what motivates them,and how to work cooperatively with them.It is a relationship-based construct that centers on the way we understand others,interact with others,and present ourselves to others.As an example,you would not speak in the same way toward your 70-year-old mother as you would to your 16-year-old daughter.In our working lives,we come across different social groups including those from different countries,varying age groups and cultural identities.Being able to acknowledge and understand people’s different backgrounds is a key way to connect with them.
Our ability to navigate successfully through our lives relies heavily on our levels of social intelligence.It can affect the relationships we form with our partners and children,the friendship circles that we build,and our ability to progress in our careers and ambitions.Given the importance of social intelligence in multiple aspects of life,it is therefore in our best interest to better understand the concept of social intelligence and take the following ways to improve it.
9.What is the first paragraph intended to show
A.Academic research varies from person to person.
B.Creative competencies are crucial to one’s research.
C.There are differences in people’s social intelligence.
D.People’s social abilities depend on their backgrounds.
10.Why does the author use the example of a 70-year-old mother and a 16-year-old daughter
A.To sincerely present a fact.
B.To further clarify a concept.
C.To clearly show an attitude.
D.To finally draw a conclusion.
11.What do we know from the third paragraph
A.Our relationship circles should be enlarged.
B.Better understanding a concept is important.
C.It is really difficult to achieve one’s ambition.
D.Social intelligence has great effects on our lives.
12.What may be talked about following the last paragraph
A.How to define social intelligence.
B.How to classify social intelligence.
C.How to improve social intelligence.
D.How to deal with social intelligence.

On Monday,Xu Mengtao won her first Olympic gold in women’s aerials(空中技巧) at the 2022 Beijing Winter Games.It was not hard to see what it meant for Xu:When the score 108.61 came up with a “1” by her name,she pointed one,then two fingers to the sky and let out a scream.
“Xu is one of the handful of women to consistently try the high-risk triple flips(三周空翻) over the years,”said American Ashley Caldwell,another triple-flip enthusiast who finished fourth.“While triple flips are not unheard of among the women,the list of athletes who have tried them consistently is short.At the last two Olympics,only four of the 12 finalists tried triple flips in the final round.”
Women’s aerials is a sport full of risk-takers but all the risks are very calculated.Since the competitions go through a series of qualifying and elimination(淘汰) rounds that include only one jump each,only a select few over the years have been willing to give up the certainty of a solid score with a double flip for the triple flips.
Xu doesn’t adopt the strategy and keeps trying the triple flips.“It adds extra some might say unnecessary risk to the early rounds,”Xu once said.“But I’m OK sacrificing some good competition results to make the sport look good.”
Failures at the last three Olympics tested the limits of how much Xu was willing to sacrifice.In meet after meet,from Vancouver to Sochi to Pyeongchan,her strategy kept her away from the gold medal but she kept pushing anyway.
“It’s a sense of mission accomplished.This is a winning night for women’s aerials,too,”Xu said after the award ceremony.“If a lot of girls are doing triple flips up there and I fall,there would still be a lot of girls who would do well.If I mess up,that’s OK.”
13.What can we infer from Ashley Caldwell’s words
A.Xu Mengtao is very sensitive.
B.No athlete wants to try the triple flips.
C.Women are not good risk-takers.
D.Most athletes want to avoid uncertainties.
14.Why does Xu Mengtao keep trying the triple flips
A.She really loves unnecessary risks.
B.She wants to show off her new trick.
C.She hopes to attract more girls to aerials.
D.She wishes to make the sport more enjoyable.
15.Which of the following best describes Xu Mengtao
A.Determined. B.Curious.
C.Calculating. D.Outgoing.

In the near future,instead of going to your wardrobe(衣柜) to choose something to throw on for your next video call,you might turn to your virtual wardrobe to pick out a 3D digital dress to wear.At least,that’s what a number of people in the fashion and tech space are relying on as more businesses look to the promise of digital fashion.Moreover,those virtual clothes won’t just be for your video calls,but could eventually be worn all over the virtual world,and eventually,perhaps,viewed on your body in the real world through the Augmented Reality(AR) glasses.
“There are more and more second worlds,where you can express yourself.But there is probably an underestimation of the value being attached to individuals who want to express themselves in a virtual world with a virtual product,through a virtual image,” a marketing officer Robert said.As the field develops,there are two ways of using digital clothes—wearing them yourself through AR and providing digital clothes for your virtual body.
But why should we replace our physical clothes Supporters say there’s unlimited creative expression through digital clothes,which now look increasingly more elegant thanks to developments in 3D and AR technology.“Clothing represents an expression of a personality.It always exists in the physical world,and it will exist in the virtual world,” said Simon Whitehouse,a designer.
He explained,“From the brand side,it’s incredibly profitable to sell clothes without producing physical clothes.It’s reinventing an entire supply chain.There’s no water usage,and there’s very limited CO2 emission.There are no samples being sent out or returned.There are no show rooms,and there’s no physical prototype(实物模型).”
16.What can you probably do in the near future according to paragraph 1
A.Open a virtual fashion clothing store.
B.Design 3D digital clothes for yourself.
C.Buy a bigger wardrobe for your bedroom.
D.Wear virtual clothes made by digital technology.
17.What can we infer from Simon’s words in paragraph 3
A.AR technology will bring a challenge to people.
B.One’s character will be seen in the virtual world.
C.Digital clothes will be more convenient for people.
D.One’s expression only can be seen in the physical world.
18.What is Simon’s attitude to digital clothing
A.Approving. B.Doubtful.
C.Unclear. D.Grateful.
19.What is the text mainly about
A.The increase in AR glasses.
B.The digital fashion in the future.
C.The virtual body in digital clothes.
D.AR glasses made by new technology.

Amazing and perfectly beautiful,The Midnight Library is everything you’d expect from the genius storyteller,Matt Haig.I picked it up from our readers’ recommendations(we asked our readers to send in some of their favorite recent books) and I can see why it won Best Fiction of 2020 in the Good Reads Choice Awards.
The story follows Nora Seed,a woman who is struggling and feels like nothing in her life has gone according to plan.While the initial chapters of the book are quite sad,Nora finds herself given a chance to start over in the Midnight Library,a magical place full of books of all the different paths her life could have taken.Nora is forced to stay in the library and try out different versions of her life until she finds the life she most wants to live.
I loved the idea that no dream or fork in your road is insignificant,and that they all lead us to become different versions of ourselves.In one life,Nora is an Olympic swimmer.In another,she is a glaciologist living on a boat off the coast of Antarctica.The novel reveals in a beautiful way that the potential we all have within us is impossible to measure,and that we have the possibility to be happy in many different versions of life.
It also discusses how dangerous it can be to live your life with regrets.The Midnight Library revealed to Nora that even if you make very different choices,you may uncover a deeper appreciation for your current home and the people in your life.It is your perspective that matters.
I really loved the fantasy and magical realism in this novel,and I would love for this to be turned into a series where we get to explore The Midnight Library of other characters’ lives as well.

Lily,17 and Evie,15,love cooking and regularly practice their skills.“Both of us obviously love cooking and are very passionate about the state of our city in which we want to make a change for the better,” Evie told Yahoo Life.
Though the teens are too young to become politicians,they often used their baking skills to help with campaigns that try to make their city better.In their spare time,they baked cupcakes and then sold them to raise money.According to Yahoo Life,they raised a total of 30,000 dollars(about 191,000 yuan) in their first fundraiser.
“Once you get a taste for making a difference in the world,you can’t stop,”Lily added.
After this success,the sisters continued helping others.New American Pathways is an Atlanta-based nonprofit organization that helps refugees(难民).Though the organization has tried its best to support newly-arrived refugees,it’s unable to do everything for them.Many young Afghan refugees don’t have backpacks and other school supplies.
As teen students,the sisters understood how important school supplies are.So they decided to give a hand to these young refugees.At the suggestion of the organization,they started a bake sale to raise funds.Whenever they had the time,they would bake desserts by themselves or called for families and neighbors to join in with them.
With their great work,they ended up getting 240 filled backpacks.
“Knowing that each backpack would be held by a kid that might not have had a backpack at all felt really good,and I was excited to know that we could fuel their love of learning,”Evie told the website Inspiration Post.
They also hope to inspire others to make a difference no matter how small it is.“No matter how small you might feel your voice is,”Lily told Daily Viral News,“just know that you can make a difference in your community.You just have to go for it.”
24.How did Lily and Evie make their city better
A.They used their hobby to make a difference.
B.They tried to become politicians.
C.They called for the public to raise money.

Every time mask wearers cough,or make certain facial expressions,their face covering shifts—and a busy worker may not have time to recheck mask fit each time one of these movements occurs.“This can cause anxiety,” says Josiah Hester,developer of FaceBit—a device that tracks a face covering’s fit and wear time,as well as its wearer’s vital signs.His colleagues who work in clinical settings have been communicating their concerns to him,saying,“Give me something that can watch me because I don’t have the time to take care of myself as I’m going about my clinical duties,taking care of this influx(涌入) of patients.” And that’s where it started,Hester explains.
Rather than developing an entire “smart mask”,which might be impractical to reuse,Hester’s team created an electronic device,a little larger than a quarter,that attaches to a face covering with a clip(夹子) and contains several sensors.A pressure sensor detects leaks,indicating how well a mask is fitting.Pressure changes also let the FaceBit determine when the mask is over someone’s face,so it can record wear time.The FaceBit additionally monitors heart rate and measures breathing rate.A Bluetooth connection sends these data to a companion phone app.The device is powered by a battery,charged with energy harvested from the mask’s motions as its wearer moves and breathes.
A fit monitor could be very useful for health care workers wearing a mask all day,says Lisa Brosseau,a research consultant.But she is not convinced that FaceBit can consistently measure fit.“It has some promise,perhaps,but they have not validated it in a way that I would accept.”
Hester plans to continue testing and improving the project.His team will distribute some FaceBits and let people use them,experiment and play with them.Other researchers will also be able to improve the energy-harvesting components and extend the battery life.They could even add new sensors that would open up more uses for such a device.
28.Where did Josiah Hester’s inspiration to develop FaceBit come from
A.One of his patients.
B.A research consultant.
C.His personal experience.
D.His co-workers’ request.
29.How can a mask wearer get information from FaceBit
A.By checking the companion phone app.
B.By reading the measurer on it.
C.By communicating with a wearable recorder.
D.By viewing the watch attached to it.
30.What can we infer about Josiah Hester’s project
A.It is of unlimited use.
B.It is well received.
C.It calls for cooperation.
D.It has gained profits.
31.What is the purpose of the text
A.To share a clinical experiment.
B.To introduce an electronic device.
C.To recommend a smart face covering.
D.To analyze risks of not wearing masks.

A Spanish rice dish; secreto de cerdo with pisto—Ibérico Pork with tomatoes,onions,eggplant,and peppers; and chicken and mushroom paella,will be served aboard the International Space Station(ISS) throughout the next week.
That,at least,is what four of the eleven crew members aboard the ISS will be eating,after a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket lifts off on April 8,2022 from Cape Canaveral,Florida,carrying the Crew Dragon spacecraft.The flight,sponsored by the Houston-based company Axiom Space and known as AX-1,is commanded by Axiom vice president and former astronaut Michael López-Alegría.Also on board are three business owners and charitarians:American Larry Connor,Canadian Mark Pathy,and Israeli Eytan Stibbe—each of whom paid an estimated $55 million per seat for their 20-hour journey to the station and the eight days they will spend aboard.
Actually,they are not the first space tourists to the ISS—eleven in total over the past two decades; and all of them were adventurers who paid to fly aboard crewed by professional astronauts.AX-1 is the first fully private mission to the station—but not the last.
In a pre-launch press conference,Connor said,“We’ve spent anywhere from 750 to over 1,000 hours training.We’re going to do some 25 different experiments covering over 100 hours of research.” One such experiment will involve a brain headset that will conduct real-time electroencephalograms(EEGs) of the crew as they fly and experiments on in vitro stem cells.
There will also be time for a moving remembrance.Stibbe,the second Israeli to fly in space,once piloted military jets under the command of Ilan Ramon,the first Israeli astronaut,who died in the 2003 disintegration of the space shuttle Columbia.Several pages from Ramon’s diary survived the crash and Stibbe will carry them into the space.
Space is a hard business,a dangerous business,and an expensive business.But it’s also an emotional one.“Ramon was a good friend,” Stibbe added respectfully.“He was my commander.”
32.Why does the author show the dishes at the beginning
A.To present the whole menu in the space mission.
B.To attract readers’ interest and introduce the topic.
C.To show the enjoyment of the crew members during the flight.
D.To highlight the wealth and social status of the crew members.
33.What’s the main purpose of the mission
A.To maintain the ISS.
B.To provide space travel.
C.To help people settle in space.
D.To send Spanish food to space.
34. How does Connor think about the mission before he flies
A.Fully-prepared and significant.
B.Expensive but worthwhile.
C.Difficult and dangerous.
D.Adventurous and challenging.
35. Why does Stibbe want to bring Ramon’s diary into the space
A.Because he wants to continue writing the diary.
B.Because he can use Ramon’s diary as instructions.
C.Because he once piloted military jets under Ramon’s command.
D.Because he wants to show respect for Ramon in this way.
