66．Dear Editor,
Yesterday, I came across an emergency where a young man performed first aid on an old man on the roadside.
At about 6 pm, I was walking home with my classmate when we found there were many people crowding in front. Feeling curious, we walked forward only to find an old man lying on the ground. Just at that time, a young man rushed forward and began to give first aid to the old man. After a while, the old man recovered and opened his eyes. Seeing that, everyone else clapped their hands. Then an ambulance arrived and rushed the old man to the hospital. The doctors praised the young man for his quick and proper action.
I think he has set a good example to us that we should learn some first aid knowledge to help those who need it.
Yours,
Li Hua
67．Everybody was fixing their eyes in Jenny, waiting for an explanation. Dead silence suddenly fell. So embarrassed was Jenny that she felt her face burning and her mind going blank. Despite the unwillingness to admit it, she had actually made the most shameful mistake. Jenny was thrown into a dilemma whether to tell the truth or not. Considering the well-prepared speech and the magic of the watch, she plucked up her courage, uttering in a begging tone, “But Miss Walker, could I deliver the speech first ” All the classmates fell into tremendous curiosity, eager to witness her performance.
At that, Miss Walker smiled and asked the class to listen to Jenny’s speech. Overwhelmed with excitement, Jenny confidently made her way to the platform, words flooding out of her fluently. Never before in her life had she delivered such a terrific speech. Praises spread around the classroom and even Miss Walker nodded with approval. Feeling incredibly refreshed, Jenny finished her speech, which was greeted with thunderous applause. Relieved, Jenny exposed the truth and especially the magic of the watch. “But it’s just an ordinary watch without any magic.” announced Lee. Not until then did Jenny realize the real source of confidence comes from his effort rather than the watch.

W: Mary and I will go out to dinner after class on Friday. Can you go with us
M: Yeah, sure. But what time are we going to go out I have to be home by ten, or I’ll get into trouble.
Text2：
W: Jane, you seem to like to stay with people who are a lot more outgoing and confident than you are.
M: Yeah. I’m kind of shy and quiet myself, so I let them do the talking.
Text3：
W: Hmm, I had bread and an egg for breakfast. What did you have, Fred
M: I wasn’t hungry this morning. I had some fruit. I had a banana and an apple.
Text4：
W: Will you tell Sam to give me back my pencil I’m trying to do my homework.
M: Sam, please give your sister back her pencil. You can get one in your mom’s office.
Text5：
W: David, what do you want for a pet, a cat or a dog
M: Neither. I just want to have a rabbit.
W: Why
M: Rabbits are just so lovely, and it won’t take me much time to look after a rabbit.
Text6：
M: I don’t know about you, Tanya, but I’m still hungry.
W: No, I’m fine. It was a good meal. Rather expensive though.
M: More than rather! I thought they charged far too much for what we got.
W: But if you want to eat out elsewhere, you have to be prepared to pay much more. It’s not just you’re paying for. You pay for the surroundings, the service, the music — even the fresh flowers on the table. It’s all those things that make it such an enjoyable evening.
M: I suppose so. But I think it’d be better to buy something really special and eat it at home.
W: Oh yes! And who does the cooking
M: I’m always ready to help.
W: That’s not the point. I want to be able to enjoy a relaxing evening and that means eating out and...
M: And wasting money. Maybe we’ll end up in debt before long. Just think what we could have bought if we’d stayed at home.
W: But it’s not as much fun! I loved the music.
M: Well, I found it embarrassing. I hate it when the violinist stood right beside me. I didn’t know where to look.
Text7：
W: I enjoy going through a secondhand bookstore, don’t you It’s interesting to see what people used to enjoy reading. Did you see this old book of children’s stories

W: Hey! Look at this!
M: What Are you getting interested in nineteenth century poetry all of a sudden
W: No. Look at the inscription! Someone gave this book as a present, and wrote a note on the inside of the front cover. It’s dated 1893. Maybe it’s worth something.
M: Everything on that shelf is worth fifty cents.
W: But if this is a signature of someone who is well known, it might bring a lot more. I hear William Shakespeare’s signature is worth about a million dollars.
Text8：
W: Excuse me, sir. I’m a bit lost. Could you help me out, please
M: Sure! I can give you directions. I know this area well. I’ve been living here for fifteen years. Where are you heading
W: I need to find a gas station. My car is low on gas.
M: Alright. Go down this road and drive on for about two more miles.
W: OK. Is it on this road
M: No. Take the third left and go for about half a mile. You will get to the gas station.
W: Is the gas station on the left side or the right side of the road

Text10：
W: Jin Schofield is an 18-year-old teen girl from Ontario. Two years ago she volunteered at a laboratory and met a deaf student. She had to work with a human translator to help the deaf boy communicate with those who didn’t know sign language, and it stuck with her. After leaving the laboratory, she began to think if she could invent a device that can translate American sign language into spoken English. She talked about it with her good friend Sarvnaz. Her friend showed great interest and the two girls got down to work. They signed up for an online eight-week machine learning course designed by Stanford University. They also turned to local university professors who directed them to more resources. The teens also reached out to people who used American sign language, and asked them about their preferences. With great effort, they invented a device for deaf people to wear on their hands. Because of the device, in August 2020, the two girls won a competition and took home $5,000. They earned $10,000 a year later when they won a national competition. The teens said they hope to use the money to continue experimenting with the device

Life is noisier than ever before — there are louder and more TVs, speaker, and electronic device notifications in public spaces and open-plan offices. Across Europe, about 450 million people live with noise levels that are dangerous to health. All this has serious effects on our mental health, our physical health, and our ability to generate creative work.
We define “ noise ” as all the unwanted sound and mental stimulation (刺激) that interferes with our ability to make sense of the world and our ability to act upon our intentions. In this sense, noise is more than a nuisance. It’s a primary barrier to being able to identify and carry out solutions to the challenges we face as individuals, organizations, and even whole societies.
So, how can we build cultures that honor the importance of silence At some organizations, it’s “no email Fridays” or “no meeting Wednesdays.” At others, it’s removing the expectation of being available on electronic devices during weekends or after 5 pm. For some workplaces, a redesign of the work space might help specific kinds of workers get the focus that they need. One solution might be permitting uninterrupted periods of time during the workday. Another might be giving up on the open floor plan and moving the whole office to a new building.
Across our society today, norms of noisiness run deep. In most office cultures, workers are required to stay connected all the time and they have to remain competitive. In many organizations, it’s common to interrupt workers who are absorbed in their work. All these lead to more noises. But there are simple strategies we can employ in order to find our own personal shelters and to slightly change broader cultures. By reclaiming silence in the workplace, we can create the conditions for reducing burnout and improving creative problem solving. Even in an increasingly noisy world, we can be quiet together.
24．What does the underlined word “nuisance” in paragraph 2 man
A．Difficulty. B．Shock. C．Disappointment. D．Annoyance.
25．What is probably a good way to help create cultures of quiet time
A．Not sending email on workdays. B．Being available for work on Sundays.
C．Not interrupting workers for some time. D．Designing larger offices for workers.
26．Why is it difficult to build a culture of quiet time
A．Demands of constant connectivity exist. B．Various office cultures are developing.
C．Workers’ attention is always well valued. D．Personal space is often highly desired.
27．Which of the following is the most suitable title for the passage
A．Noise kills B．Let’s be quiet
C．A noisy culture D．Why to be quiet
C
Recently we celebrated my grandmother’s 90th birthday. Family members traveled to my hometown to visit her. This was the first time in many years that I had seen so many of them. Though this was an opportunity to see family, many people did not make it. Honestly, living far from hometown, I had missed many family gatherings. But this one made me realize how much I was really missing.
It seemed strange when I was looking at the laces, realizing whom they were and greeting them with open arms. After chatting for a while, we caught up on each other’s news. Several relatives suggested having a family reunion soon if everyone wasn’t so busy. But my grandmother’s generation was much busier, yet still found time to gather. They understood the importance of visiting one another. They knew time is flying and that those you care about most won’t be here forever.
Today, we focus on our careers and raising our kids. Our extended family isn’t the center it once was. Besides, we keep in touch on social media. But what we really miss are the potato salad, the moments of laughter and sudden bursts of excitement when we hug someone we haven’t seen for over 10 years. Although the next get-together is always a year or so away, people aren’t goods and everyone has an expiration(到期)dale.
I left my grandmother’s party with a much better sense of who I am and where I come from. I spent valuable time with people who contributed to who I am today. I had forgotten how much I love them and I was reminded how much I am loved.
28．How did the author feel about missing previous family gatherings
A．Indifferent. B．Sad. C．Regretful. D．Annoyed.
29．What do we know about the author’s grandmother’s generation
A．They were carefree. B．They held family dear.
C．They took time seriously. D．They seldom visited family.
30．What does the author mean by the last sentence in paragraph 3
A．Family reunions mean no fun.
B．All goods don’t have an expiration date.
C．People are always too busy to get together.
D．We should see loved ones more before it’s too late.
31．Why does the author write the text
A．To convince readers to meet friends. B．To share an interesting family reunion.
C．To stress the value of family gatherings. D．To compare different generations’ values.
D
Growing up as kids we are told to share our toys and not to be selfish. We also live in an age when discussing our feelings is encouraged. But when does it all become too much With new trends growing all the time, such as dance challenges and wearing a carpet as a dress, the question is: when can sharing become oversharing on social media
“Oversharing” has become associated with social media, but it isn’t exclusive to this platform. Imagine you head to a party and meet someone. Within five minutes they have revealed private details about their life. While some of us may try to escape these people, according to marriage advisor Carolyn Cole, this form of oversharing could come from a strong desire to connect with someone. But how does this translate to social media
Dr. Christopher Hand, a lecturer in cyberpsychology (网络心理学), says the more details people uncover, the less sympathy we express when things go wrong. It seems that searching for sympathy by oversharing is generally considered as negative rather than the cry for help it could really be.
However, Dr. Hand’s research also seems to suggest that the more we post on a platform, the more socially attractive we become-only if the posts that we share are positive. Even back in 2015, Gwendolyn Seidman PhD said that we should avoid complaining and being negative online. We should also avoid showing off, especially about our love lives. It makes sense-if your date is going “that well”, would you really have time to share a photo with text
So, how can you know if you are oversharing Well, why not ask your friends in real life. They would probably be happy to tell you if your posts about your breakfast or your complaints about your lack of money really are too much.
32．What does the underlined word “exclusive” in paragraph 2 mean
A．Unique. B．Similar. C．Relevant D．Distinct.
33．Why do some people prefer oversharing at parties
A．To draw others’ attention. B．To satisfy others’ curiosity.
C．To remove negative feelings. D．To develop good relationships.
34．Which of the following may Dr. Hand agree with
A．Sharing more details online can attract more sympathy.
B．Oversharing negative experiences is equal to crying for help.
C．Oversharing isn’t likely to happen online when things go wrong.
D．Sharing negative posts can’t help one become socially attractive.
35．According to the text, what should be avoided for online sharing
A．Reflecting on past bad manners. B．Showing a great many expensive goods.
C．Writing a recipe for a balanced breakfast. D．Recording unforgettable moments with friends.

67．阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
It was time to go home.“Remember to work on your class speeches for homework, ”Miss Walker called, as everyone started talking and packing their school bags. Jenny felt sick. She hated having to read aloud in class. She was sure everyone got really bored listening to her. Once, when Jenny was reading out her holiday diary, Lee was even looking at his watch, a silver and blue one which seemed just magical.
Jenny watched Lee walk ahead of her as they left school. He seemed so clever, and he had a certain sort of shining confidence. He was just one of those people who were good at everything. Jenny sighed. As she turned the corner, she saw Lee’s watch lying right in the middle of the path.
Jenny knew she should just pick it up and return it to him, but she didn’t want to run after him. Jenny bent down quickly, picked up the watch and ran home. On arriving home, Jenny put it on almost without thinking. She was surprised it fitted so well. She walked to the mirror and started practicing her speech. Words just flooded out of her.“I’m going to talk about swimming. I have been lucky. I’ve won lots of competitions. But when I’m in a race, I’m not really thinking about winning.
