“A bird with a broken wing will never fly as high. ” I’m sure T. J, Ware was made to feel this way almost every day in school.
By high school, T, J. was the most celebrated troublemaker in his town. Teachers literally cringed when they saw his name posted on their classroom lists.
I met T. J. for the first time when all the students at school were attending ACE training. At first, he showed no interest in the discussion. But slowly, the interactive games drew him in. T. J. had some brilliant thoughts on those situations, which were welcomed by his group. By the end of the activity, the other students on the team were impressed with his concern and ideas and elected T. J. co-chairman of the team.
When T. J. showed up at school on Monday morning, a group of teachers were expressing their disagreements to the school principal about his being elected co-chairman. The principal reminded them that the purpose of the program was to uncover any positive feeling and strengthen its practice until true change can take place. The teachers left the meeting, firmly convinced that failure was unavoidable.
Two weeks later, T. J. and his friends led a group of 70 students to collect food They collected a school record: 2,854 cans of food in just two hours. The local newspaper covered the event with a full-page article the next day. That newspaper story was posted on the main bulletin board at school, where everyone could see it.
T. J. ,s picture was up there for doing something great.
T. J. started showing up at school every day and answered questions from teachers for the first time. The event he started now yields 9,000 cans of food in one day, taking care of 70 percent of the need for food for one year.
T, J. reminds us that a bird with a broken wing only needs mending. But once it has healed, it can fly higher than the rest. T. J. got a job. He became productive. He is flying quite nicely these days.

25．Why did the team members elect T.J. co-chairman

My generation--people born after 1990 --are accustomed to “all-in-platform” life, where we use mobile apps of different platforms to do almost everything in life.
For instance, I ordered a cup of coffee on Monday using an online delivery app. Then, I called a taxi by tapping on the app of a ride-booking service. Next, I bought some necessities on shopping platform Taobao. That done, I moved on to various other online destinations to get my daily fix of music, reading, social networking and so forth.
Platforms now play an increasingly important role in almost all aspects of day-to-day life, not just in economic and political processes. Consumption and social interaction are closely linked to platforms now.
But, I began to get confused recently. I thought I was being treated differently. My friend and I called a taxi at the same time on a ride-hailing platform (打车平台) and found that for the same destination, the prices were different. The price indicated on my phone was higher. One of the potential reasons could have been that I regularly use the ride-hailing platform and have a higher ranking while my friend doesn’t use it that often. So, the ride-hailing platform offers discounts to newbies like her, to attract and have such customers.
China’s latest efforts in regulating monopolistic (垄断的) or improper market behavior are of great significance in protecting consumers’ lawful rights.
“The essence of platform-based monopoly (垄断) is that a large number of users are gathered on only a select few platform companies, leading to uneven data gathering different platforms. But in China some platforms use their own data and traffic (流量) to expand capital in a disorderly way,” said Wang Yong, deputy director of the Institute of Economics at Tinghua University.
Data monopoly also brought another inconvenience for consumers--platforms block links to each other. For instance, link to We Chat Pay of Tencent is not available on Alibuba’s Taobao while there is no Alipay link on JD app’s payment options.
“More efforts should also be made to strike a good balance between personal information protection and interconnection between panies are being encouraged to further develop data safety technology so that the data are available but not visible.”
28．What is the author’s purpose in writing Para. 2
A．To offer some tips on using apps on mobile phone.
B．To share his experience with mobile apps.
C．To further explain what is “all-in-platform” life.
D．To help readers familiarize themselves with mobile apps.
29．What could be inferred from Paragraph 4
A．The author encountered so called “big data price discrimination”.
B．The author and his friend were treated differently by taxi drivers.
C．Due to the author’s higher ranking, the platform offered him a cheaper price.
D．The ride-hailing platform offers discounts to regular customers.
30．What is the author’s attitude towards data monopoly
A．Sympathetic. B．Approving. C．Critical. D．Grateful.
31．What does the passage focus on
A．Data monopolies and the inconvenience they bring to mobile app life.
B．Mobile apps have greatly changed our lives.
C．How to protect personal information on mobile apps.
D．Platforms have impacted every aspect of our daily lives.

Scientists in the Netherlands have trained bees to identify COVID-19 through their sense of smell, according to a press release from Wageningen University. The research was conducted on more than 150 bees in Wageningen University’s bio-veterinary research laboratory.
The scientists trained the bees by giving them a treat — a sugar-water solution (溶液) — every time they were exposed to the scent of a mink (貂) infected with COVID-19. Each time the bees were exposed to a non-infected sample, they wouldn’t get a reward. Eventually, the bees could identify an infected sample within a few seconds — and would then stick out their tongues like clockwork to collect the sugar water.
Bees aren’t the first animals to detect COVID-19 by scent. Researchers have also trained dogs to distinguish between positive and negative COVID-19 samples from human saliva (唾液) or sweat with fairly high levels of accuracy. A small German study found that dogs could identify positive COVID-19 samples 94% of the time. That’s because metabolic changes from the coronavirus make an infected person’s bodily fluids smell slightly different from those of a non-infected person. But researchers still aren’t sure whether animals are the best bet (赌注) for sniffing out COVID-19 cases outside the lab.
“No one is saying they can replace a PCR machine, but they could be very promising,” Holger Volk, a neurologist, told Nature. PCR machines are what lab technicians use to process standard COVID-19 swab tests. At the very least, certain animals could be useful for identifying COVID-19 in places or countries in which high-tech laboratory equipment is scarce or inaccessible.
Wageningen scientists are working on a prototype of a machine that could automatically train multiple bees at once. Then bees can use their skills to test for coronavirus aerosols (气溶胶) in the surrounding environment.
32．How did the researchers teach the bees to identify COVID-19
A．By offering bees some rewards. B．By infecting bees with COVID-19.
C．By raising bees with sugar water. D．By exposing bees to infected humans.
33．Why are dogs capable of finding out negative COVID-19 samples
A．For dogs can sniff out hidden virus of the samples.
B．For dogs can tell the different smell of the samples.
C．For dogs can feel metabolre changes of the samples.
D．For dogs can distinguish saliva from sweat of the samples.
34．What is the follow-up task of Wageningen scientists
A．To breed more multiple bees. B．To detect coronavirus aerosols.
C．To help underdeveloped countries. D．To develop a new type of machine.
35．Which can be a suitable title for the text
A．A New Way to Cure COVID-19 Disease
B．Bees: Well-trained COVID-19 Detectors (探测器)
C．Bees’ Extremely Accurate Sense of Smell
D．The Best Method of Identifying COVID-19

How to Welcome Change in Your Life
Do you embrace (欣然接受) the road you are now on or resist and avoid change at all costs when a recent event has shaken you greatly 36
Don’t react.
What do we do when we don’t know what to do First, stop, take a deep breath and don’t do anything. 37 It is having faith and trusting what you do know in the unknown.
Reflect on the past.
Another activity is to recall times in your life when you were faced with an unknown. Then, think about how you handled the situation. 38 Use your past experiences to bring you strength, and to remind you what you are capable of.
Make conscious decisions.
39 However, more possibilities open up when we are at peace. Go over you list of what ifs and make a more balanced list of the best and worst situations possible. Then talk to loved ones about what you would do in each situation and the choices you do have.

The Ex-Footballer
I eventually managed to persuade my parents to buy me a new football shirt for the school matches. My old shirt had worn out and made me depressed every time I put it on. But now I had a brand-new shirt! I was so excited. The next school match wasn’t until next week though! How could I wait that long I couldn’t. So I decided to wear it today for the first time during a kick about in our street. I wish I hadn’t! As soon as we had been playing for ten minutes, the shirt sleeve ripped (裂开) when I made a turn. I didn’t pay much attention to it at first. “I’ll sew it back together after the match” I thought. But then I noticed that it wasn’t just the stitch (针脚) that had come out, the whole sleeve was torn. Only a professional can mend it now. I couldn’t tell my mum and dad that my new football shirt was ruined. I needed a tailor. As I walked home, feeling totally at a loss what to do, I was startled to suddenly come across a shop sign “All kinds of repairs and services!” I went inside immediately. However, I hadn’t seen the step in front of the door and I tripped into the shop hitting a wooden sculpture to the left of the entrance. When I crashed into it, it broke! I looked around the shop feeling embarrassed and blushing bright red. A man with white bushy hair said calmly, “Welcome!” “I’m sorry. I broke your sculpture.” “You’ve broken it in just the right place. This is a repair shop. Repairs are my job! I looked around the shop. I saw an iron, broken toys and a broken chair. “I guess this is the wrong place. What I really need is a tailor’s” I said, putting my fingers through the tear (裂口) in the shirt. “It’s OK. I’ve been waiting a long, long time to repair a football shirt. “Are you serious ” I held the shirt tight so he couldn’t take it from me.

66．Good morning, everyone,
As we all know, the epidemic of the novel coronavirus has had a great impact on our study and life. Due to the epidemic, we have to take online classes at home. Fortunately, our school offers different courses for us every day and specially arranges some interesting activities for us, so we don’t feel bored at all. During this period of time, teachers and students greet and care for each other every day, which makes me most moved. After a month of online learning, I believe I am well prepared for the coming final exam.
That’s all. Thank you!
67．Paragraph 1:
But the man didn’t let me move and took the shirt from me. “Are you a football player ”he asked. “Yes, I play for both the street and the school team and how did you know ” I replied. “You have many years ahead of you. We may see you play for a professional team one day.” “Impossible! My dad doesn't see football as a profession. He thinks I should be an engineer, a doctor or an economist.” “Not at all. People who choose a career they really desire become successful and happy.” The man was repairing the tear with thread. He showed me the patch that he was sewing onto the tear.
Paragraph 2:
When I said “Thank you”, I noticed a photo of a football team attached to the sewing machine (缝纫机). It was a black and white photo next to the sewing machine. I couldn't make out which team it was or any of the players from where I was sitting. I asked him if he liked football. He nodded his head with passion. “Why didn't you become a football player then ” I asked. He shook with laughter. He was silent and didn’t say anything else. He put my repaired shirt in a bag and patted me on the shoulder as I started to leave. “Follow your dreams.” he said.

Text10：
Good morning, everyone. Today I’d like to give you some ideas about how life at an American university might be different from that in your own country. To be sure, the body on a U. S. campus is a pretty diverse group of people. First, you will find students of all ages. Although most students start college at around the age of 18, you will see students in their 30s and 40s and even occasionally in their 60s and 70s. Students on a U. S. campus come from a wide variety of social and economic backgrounds. Many students work at least part-time, some of them work full-time, to pay for the student loan. The number of foreign students is large. They come from Canada, China, Germany, India and so on, but the largest population is Chinese. So you can see that one meets all kinds of people on a U. S. college or university campus. As a new-comer, my advice for such a difference is to respect. Now that you have some general idea of the different university life here, I’d like to talk a few minutes about what I think an average student is and then discuss with you what a typical class might be like.
