On January 9, 2022, it was another cold morning. Temperatures reached lows of 17. 6 °F (-8℃). Dusti Talavera, a housewife in the south suburbs of Denver, was washing dishes in her kitchen when she witnessed a frightening scene outside her kitchen window. Glancing out her kitchen window, she noticed a group of young children playing on an icy pond. Moments later, the children fell through the ice.
Dusti’s heart raced as she saw the children fall through the ice, and she immediately grabbed her shoes to run outside. Submerged（淹没）in the freezing water, the children had lost the strength to stay above the surface. Their fingers were only visible as they desperately tried to grab onto the edges of the ice.
Without hesitation, Dusti placed her own life at risk by stepping on the thin, unstable ice to try to reach the three children. As she reached her hands out to grab them, she also broke the ice and fell into the 15-foot deep pond.
Dusti was first able to reach and pull out the 4-year-old girl and 11-year-old boy. She struggled to reach the last child, a 6-year-old girl. After hearing the loud screams for help, the young girl’s 16-year-old cousin suddenly arrived on scene. He threw Dusti a rope, which she used to drag herself and the young girl out of the water.
All three children were pulled out of the icy water as first responders arrived on scene. The 6-year-old girl was not breathing and had no pulse after being submerged in the icy water for two minutes. First responders performed life-saving CPR. Once the girl was able to breathe on her own, the EMTs (emergency medical technicians) rushed her to the hospital.

The process of aging is of particular concern for Americans. This concern is not only related to the likelihood of increasing your chances of coming down with diseases such as heart disease and diabetes(糖尿病) but more importantly, to the loss of your eyesight. As we age the chance that we will develop age-related vision conditions and disorders increases.
Therefore, many people believe that it’s very hard, if not impossible, to improve your vision naturally as you get older due to concerns that the visual system begins to deteriorate at that stage of life. These people also believe they’re stuck with their glasses or contacts for life. So the question is: can aging prevent you from improving your vision naturally
The answer to that question is no. While aging is inevitable(无法避免的)，when it comes to improving, protecting and preserving your precious eyesight, there are things you can do to reduce or slow the negative effects of aging on the visual system. For instance, you can take preventive steps in terms of nutrition and eye exercises that can reduce the negative effects of aging on the eyes.
These simple-and-easy-to-perform techniques make the visual system stronger therefore helping you to improve your vision. They also improve the focusing power of the eyes through vision training eye exercise techniques. Additionally, eye exercises can improve blood flow and circulation to the visual system therefore improving your eyesight. The question is: can these eye exercises help improve vision even in older people Well, the answer to this question is yes.
According to a scientific research study performed by the National Institute on Aging, elderly adults can quickly improve their vision with a branch of eye exercises called Perceptual Training. Perceptual Training relates to the ability to improve various visual skills by exposing a person repeatedly to activities involving all kinds of stimuli(刺激物). This improves the way the brain processes visual information by strengthening the connection between the brain and eyes.
8. What can be inferred from the first paragraph
A. Aging can cause various vision diseases.
B. The elders tend to do little to protect their eyes.
C. Aging population is a serious problem in the US.
D. Heart disease is the main cause of old people’s death.
9. What is the misunderstanding about eyesight according to the text
A. The elders’ eyesight can actually return to normal.
B. Wearing glasses is a good way to improve eyesight.
C. The elders’ eyesight is difficult to improve naturally.
D. Preventive measures can reduce the risk of developing eyesight problems.
10. What does the underlined word “deteriorate” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Become worse. B. Become stronger.
C. Become simpler. D. Become more sensitive.
11. What does the study tell us in the last paragraph
A. How old people should do eye exercises.
B. How the brain processes visual information.
C. The vision problem is given great attention.
D. Eye exercises can improve vision in elderly adults.
D
You probably take many steps to protect your computer from getting a virus, but what about your cell phone Cell phones are basically mini-computers, so, believe it or not, they too can get viruses.
“Viruses and malware（恶意软件）should not be a major concern to the average consumer who uses their device to make phone calls, take pictures, and download a few well-known apps from the major app marketplaces,” Tim Katsch Vice President of iDropped said. “If a user is downloading a lot of apps, changing and exploring settings within the device, and visiting a large number of websites from unknown sources, virus and malware protection should be kept on their mind.” If your phone gets a virus it can mess up your data, put random charges on your bill, and get private information such as your bank account number, credit card information, passwords, and your location.
The most common way that you could get a virus on your phone would be through downloading an infected app Viruses can also get on your phone when you click on strange links or open up an email that contains a virus. Connecting to an unsecured wireless network in a public place is also a way for hackers（黑客）to get private information from your device.
If you're still convinced that your phone might get a virus, there are anti-virus apps that you can download that will constantly scan your phone to make sure it hasn't developed a virus, Apps like these will also check things before you download them to ensure that they are safe. Another tip is to always look over your cell phone bill every month to make sure there aren't charges from apps that you never downloaded.
Technology is getting smarter, but so are hackers, and it's important to always be cautious with anything you do on your phone. Many people store a lot of personal information on their phones, and while that might make life a little more convenient, it can also do a lot of damage if hacked.
12 What can we learn from Tim Katsch's words
A. The wireless network in the public places is safe to use.
B. Viruses and malware will most probably attack average phones.
C Downloading a lot of apps will protect your phone from being hacked.
D. The average consumer needn't worry much about a virus or malware.
13. What's the most common way that your phone gets a virus
A. Downloading an infected app.
B. Clicking on close friends' links.
C. Connecting to your mobile data.
D. Changing your private information.
14. What does the last paragraph convey
A. Harm set, harm get.
B. Every coin has two sides.
C. Kill two birds with one stone.
D. Technology makes life smarter.
15. What may be the best title for the text
A. Anti-Virus Apps Make Your Cell Phone Safe
B. Viruses and Malware Damage Your Cell Phone
C. Worried About Your Cell Phone Catching a Virus
D. Ready to Fight Against the Hackers to Your Cell Phone

Ali and his younger sister, Zahra, lived with their parents in a poor neighborhood. Their moth- er was very sick and their father was struggling to finda job, and they had only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for sever al months, the landlord was breathing down their necks.
One day, Ali took Zahra's shoes to a shoe re pairman to be fixed, but he lost them on the way home. It wasn’t until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed, so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Zahra agreed and the two decided to share Ali’s running shoes. Zahra's school hours were in the morning, so she would wear them first. After school, she would rush back and give them to Ali. He could then run to his school, which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could, Ali often arrived late and was warned by the school.
Ali heard about a long distance race that was held for the boys in the city.When he learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes, he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.
The day of race arrived. Ali had a strong start, but halfway through the race he began to get tired and his legs began to ache. Getting more and more exhausted he thought only of Zahra and his promise to her. Dreaming of the new shoes he would win for his sister gave him strength, and he stayed right be hind the two fastest runners, determined to finish third. Suddenly, as the finish line drew near, another runner collided(碰撞) with Ali from behind and he crashed to the ground.
Ali looked up and saw the other boys rushing ahead.

On January 9, 2022, it was another cold morning. Temperatures reached lows of 17. 6 °F (-8℃). Dusti Talavera, a housewife in the south suburbs of Denver, was washing dishes in her kitchen when she witnessed a frightening scene outside her kitchen window. Glancing out her kitchen window, she noticed a group of young children playing on an icy pond. Moments later, the children fell through the ice.
Dusti’s heart raced as she saw the children fall through the ice, and she immediately grabbed her shoes to run outside. Submerged（淹没）in the freezing water, the children had lost the strength to stay above the surface. Their fingers were only visible as they desperately tried to grab onto the edges of the ice.
Without hesitation, Dusti placed her own life at risk by stepping on the thin, unstable ice to try to reach the three children. As she reached her hands out to grab them, she also broke the ice and fell into the 15-foot deep pond.
Dusti was first able to reach and pull out the 4-year-old girl and 11-year-old boy. She struggled to reach the last child, a 6-year-old girl. After hearing the loud screams for help, the young girl’s 16-year-old cousin suddenly arrived on scene. He threw Dusti a rope, which she used to drag herself and the young girl out of the water.
All three children were pulled out of the icy water as first responders arrived on scene. The 6-year-old girl was not breathing and had no pulse after being submerged in the icy water for two minutes. First responders performed life-saving CPR. Once the girl was able to breathe on her own, the EMTs (emergency medical technicians) rushed her to the hospital.
4. What did Dusti witness outside her kitchen window
A. The pond was frozen overnight. B. Her children fell into the icy pond.
C. A couple of kids were in danger. D. Temperatures reached a new low.

The process of aging is of particular concern for Americans. This concern is not only related to the likelihood of increasing your chances of coming down with diseases such as heart disease and diabetes(糖尿病), but more importantly, to the loss of your eyesight. As we age the chance that we will develop age-related vision conditions and disorders increases.
Therefore, many people believe that it’s very hard, if not impossible, to improve your vision naturally as you get older due to concerns that the visual system begins to deteriorate at that stage of life. These people also believe they’re stuck with their glasses or contacts for life. So the question is: can aging prevent you from improving your vision naturally
The answer to that question is no. While aging is inevitable(无法避免的)，when it comes to improving, protecting and preserving your precious eyesight, there are things you can do to reduce or slow the negative effects of aging on the visual system. For instance, you can take preventive steps in terms of nutrition and eye exercises that can reduce the negative effects of aging on the eyes.
These simple-and-easy-to-perform techniques make the visual system stronger therefore helping you to improve your vision. They also improve the focusing power of the eyes through vision training eye exercise techniques. Additionally, eye exercises can improve blood flow and circulation to the visual system therefore improving your eyesight. The question is: can these eye exercises help improve vision even in older people Well, the answer to this question is yes.
According to a scientific research study performed by the National Institute on Aging, elderly adults can quickly improve their vision with a branch of eye exercises called Perceptual Training. Perceptual Training relates to the ability to improve various visual skills by exposing a person repeatedly to activities involving all kinds of stimuli(刺激物). This improves the way the brain processes visual information by strengthening the connection between the brain and eyes.
8. What can be inferred from the first paragraph
A. Aging can cause various vision diseases.
B. The elders tend to do little to protect their eyes.
C. Aging population is a serious problem in the US.
D. Heart disease is the main cause of old people’s death.
9. What is the misunderstanding about eyesight according to the text
A. The elders’ eyesight can actually return to normal.
B. Wearing glasses is a good way to improve eyesight.
C. The elders’ eyesight is difficult to improve naturally.
D. Preventive measures can reduce the risk of developing eyesight problems.
10. What does the underlined word “deteriorate” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Become worse. B. Become stronger.
C. Become simpler. D. Become more sensitive.
11. What does the study tell us in the last paragraph
A. How old people should do eye exercises.
B. How the brain processes visual information.
C. The vision problem is given great attention.
D. Eye exercises can improve vision in elderly adults.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。很多人认为随着年龄的增长，自然地改善视力是非常困难的，但根据美国国家老龄化研究所的一项科学研究，老年人可以通过一种叫做感知训练的眼部锻炼来快速提高视力。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“As we age the chance that we will develop age-related vision conditions and disorders increases.（随着年龄的增长，我们患上与年龄有关的视力疾病和障碍的几率会增加）”推知，年龄的增加会带来和老龄化相关的视力疾病。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“Therefore, many people believe that it’s very hard, if not impossible, to improve your vision naturally as you get older （因此，许多人认为，随着年龄的增长，自然地改善视力即使不是不可能，也是非常困难的）”和“So the question is: can aging prevent you from improving your vision naturally （所以问题是：衰老会阻止你自然地改善视力吗？）”，以及第三段的“The answer to that question is no. （答案是否定的）”可知，许多人认为老人的视力难以自然改善，其实不然。故选C。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文“These people also believe they’re stuck with their glasses or contacts for life.（这些人还认为，他们会永远戴着眼镜或隐形眼镜）”可知，戴眼镜或隐形眼镜说明视力不好。由此推测，划线词所在句子“as you get older due to concerns that the visual system begins to deteriorate at that stage of life. ”意为“随着年龄的增长，由于担心视觉系统在生命的那个阶段开始变差”，即deteriorate意为“变差”。故选A。
【11题详解】

You probably take many steps to protect your computer from getting a virus, but what about your cell phone Cell phones are basically mini-computers, so, believe it or not, they too can get viruses.
“Viruses and malware（恶意软件）should not be a major concern to the average consumer who uses their device to make phone calls, take pictures, and download a few well-known apps from the major app marketplaces,” Tim Katsch Vice President of iDropped said. “If a user is downloading a lot of apps, changing and exploring settings within the device, and visiting a large number of websites from unknown sources, virus and malware protection should be kept on their mind.” If your phone gets a virus it can mess up your data, put random charges on your bill, and get private information such as your bank account number, credit card information, passwords, and your location.
The most common way that you could get a virus on your phone would be through downloading an infected app. Viruses can also get on your phone when you click on strange links or open up an email that contains a virus. Connecting to an unsecured wireless network in a public place is also a way for hackers（黑客）to get private information from your device.
If you're still convinced that your phone might get a virus, there are anti-virus apps that you can download that will constantly scan your phone to make sure it hasn't developed a virus, Apps like these will also check things before you download them to ensure that they are safe. Another tip is to always look over your cell phone bill every month to make sure there aren't charges from apps that you never downloaded.
Technology is getting smarter, but so are hackers, and it's important to always be cautious with anything you do on your phone. Many people store a lot of personal information on their phones, and while that might make life a little more convenient, it can also do a lot of damage if hacked.
12. What can we learn from Tim Katsch's words
A. The wireless network in the public places is safe to use.
B. Viruses and malware will most probably attack average phones.
C. Downloading a lot of apps will protect your phone from being hacked.
D. The average consumer needn't worry much about a virus or malware.
13. What's the most common way that your phone gets a virus
A. Downloading an infected app.
B. Clicking on close friends' links.
C. Connecting to your mobile data.
D. Changing your private information.
14. What does the last paragraph convey
A. Harm set, harm get.
B. Every coin has two sides.
C. Kill two birds with one stone.
D. Technology makes life smarter.
15. What may be the best title for the text
A. Anti-Virus Apps Make Your Cell Phone Safe
B. Viruses and Malware Damage Your Cell Phone
C. Worried About Your Cell Phone Catching a Virus
D. Ready to Fight Against the Hackers to Your Cell Phone
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C

As far as I’m concerned, success means more than just earning much money, because there are many judgements of success.
Those who have made great contributions to society deserve our respect and they are, of course, successful even though they don’t earn much. In addition, there are many ordinary people who do what they can to make their country better and they are successful as well. For example, Mr Huang, who has been teaching for 20 years in our school, is known for his teaching methods as well as his devotion to his students. He is a success as a teacher though he doesn’t earn a lot of money.

Ali and his younger sister, Zahra, lived with their parents in a poor neighborhood. Their moth- er was very sick and their father was struggling to finda job, and they had only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for sever al months, the landlord was breathing down their necks.
One day, Ali took Zahra's shoes to a shoe re pairman to be fixed, but he lost them on the way home. It wasn’t until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed, so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Zahra agreed and the two decided to share Ali’s running shoes. Zahra's school hours were in the morning, so she would wear them first. After school, she would rush back and give them to Ali. He could then run to his school, which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could, Ali often arrived late and was warned by the school.
Ali heard about a long distance race that was held for the boys in the city.When he learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes, he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.
The day of race arrived. Ali had a strong start, but halfway through the race he began to get tired and his legs began to ache. Getting more and more exhausted he thought only of Zahra and his promise to her. Dreaming of the new shoes he would win for his sister gave him strength, and he stayed right be hind the two fastest runners, determined to finish third. Suddenly, as the finish line drew near, another runner collided(碰撞) with Ali from behind and he crashed to the ground.
Ali looked up and saw the other boys rushing ahead

【答案】Ali looked up and saw the other boys rushing ahead. Refusing to give up at this point, he jumped to his feet and ran as fast as he could. He dashed across the finish line and won the fourth prize. Thinking he would let her sister down, Ali couldn’t help sobbing. Just then he suddenly heard the announcement from the broadcast that he won the third prize as the runner who collided with Ali was disqualified for breaking the rule. Holding the shoes close to his chest during the award ceremony, Ali felt overjoyed and relieved as he eventually won the shoes for his sister.
Filled with delight, Ali walked home quickly. He could not wait to see his sister and share the good news. On his arrival, Ali found Zahra was waiting outside. Nervous and anxious, Zahra wondered whether her brother had brought her what she was expecting. “Zahra, see what I have got for you.” Ali said excitedly, taking the prize out of his bag with his trembling hands. The instant Zahra saw the shoes, her face lit up. So thrilled was she that she threw herself at Ali. “Thank you!Ali.” Tears of joy welled up in their eyes as the brother and the sister hugged tightly together.
