My 15-year-old daughter landed her first job this summer as a dishwasher at the local cafe, making $16 an hour. And I was filling with pride and unrequested advice.
After her first shift, my daughter issued her grievances. She was on her feet for hours on end! The water was extremely hot! She was too busy to eat dinner! And every time she turned around, the sink was piled high with pots and pans covered in cheese and sauce!
I panicked. Over the next few days, I tried talking to my daughter about what she could do differently. I tried coaching her on how to ask her manager for a 15-minute snack break. And I offered her a pair of rubber gloves. My daughter would have none of it.
As the weeks wore on, she got to know the work well. Oh, she still complained. But she told me that she was gamifying ( 游 戏 化 ) the washing system, that the line cooks had an amusing middle school sense of humor, and that the head chef was developing a dessert that she got to taste-test before it hit the menu. Plus, there was the money.
The other day she said that during her first week at work, she didn't understand how to clock in and out on the time clock (考勤钟) .“So, I told my boss the clock wasn't working for me and I texted him my hours,”she said. “But later on, I watched a few other people clock in and figured it out.”
“You know, sometimes it's OK to ask for help,” I advised.
As soon as I saw her wounded look, I regretted my words. Why was I correcting her when she'd eventually found the solution on her own That was her chance to grow, learn, and gain independence and responsibility.
Last night she told me excitedly the boss asked her to do some salad preparation. When I heard the news, I smiled happily. A promotion already! For a teenager, having a summer job is a beautiful growing experience, and for a parent, watching your child experience it is an exercise in learning to let go.
24.What does the underlined word “grievances” mean in Paragraph 2
A.Standards. B.Securities. C.Warnings. D.Complaints.
25.What can we learn about the daughter from the fourth paragraph
A.She adapted herself to the job. B.She tried to impress the chef.
C.She liked playing games at work. D.She earned a higher salary.
26.Why did the daughter wear a wounded look
A.She didn't know how to ask for help.
B.She was wounded while washing dishes.
C.She didn't get enough support from the boss.
D.She was dissatisfied with her mother's words.
27.What can we learn from the story
A.Experience is the best teacher. B.Industry is the parent of success.
C.Parenting is hard in modern times. D.The first step is as good as half over.
Scientists have been experimenting with playing sounds to plants since at least the 1960s,during which time they have been exposed to everything from Beethoven to Michael Jackson.Over the years, evidence that this sort of thing can have an effect has been growing.One paper,published in 2018, claimed that an Asian shrub known as the telegraph plant grew substantially larger leaves when exposed to 56 days of Buddhist music—but not if it was exposed to Western pop music or silence. Another,published last year,found that marigolds and sage plants exposed to the noise of traffic from a busy motorway suffered growth difficully.
Plants have been evolving(进化)alongside the insects that eat them for hundreds of millions of years.With that in mind,Heidi Appel,a botanist now at the University of Houston,and Reginald Cocroft,a biologist at the University of Missouri,wondered if plants might be sensitive to the sounds made by the animals with which they most often interact.They recorded the vibrations made by certain species of caterpillars(毛毛虫)as they chewed on leaves.These vibrations are not powerful enough to produce sound waves in the air.But they are able to travel across leaves and branches,and even to neighbouring plants if their leaves touch.
They then exposed tobacco plant—the plant biologist's version of the laboratory mouse—to the recorded vibrations while no caterpillars were actually present.Later,they put real caterpillars on the plants to see if exposure had led them to prepare for an insect attack.The results were striking. Leaves
that had been exposed had significantly higher levels of defensive chemicals, making them much harder for the caterpillars to eat. Leaves that had not been exposed to vibrations showed no such response. Other sorts of vibration—caused by the wind, for instance, or other insects that do not eat leaves—had no effect.
“Now speakers with the right audio files are more often being used to warn crops to act when insects are detected but not yet widespread,” says Dr.Cocroft.“Unlike chemical pesticides, sound waves leave no dangerous chemicals.”
28.What can we learn about plants from the first paragraph
A.They may enjoy western music.
B.They can't stand Buddhist music.
C.They can react to different sounds.
D.They can make different sounds.
29.What's the basis for Appel and Cocroft's research
A.Plants can make a cry for help.
B.Plants evolve alongside insects.
C.Plants are sensitive to the sounds.
D.Plants have been studied for years.
30.What can we infer about plants from Paragraph 3
A.They can recongnize harmful vibrations.
B.They look like laboratory mice.
C.They can threaten the caterpillars.
D.They can release poisonous chemicals.
31.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A.Disadvantages of chemical pesticides.
B.Application of the experimental results.
C.Interaction between plants and insects.
D.Warning system of widespread insects.
I have some important information. The average American…Oh, wait. New notification ( 通 知 ) .CNN: something about Taylor and Travis. Hmmm.And our dog food is out for delivery.A winter sales promotion of soap and socks. Whew …
The average American reportedly gets about 70 smartphone notifications a day. And according to a new study, the number is far higher for teenagers, whose phones ding hundreds or even thousands of times. This constant sound puts us off from work, life, and each other.
“The simple ding of a notification is enough to pull our attention elsewhere,”Kosta Kushlev, a behavioral scientist at Georgetown University, told us. “Even if we don't check them. This can have obvious effects on productivity, but also our own well-being and of those around us. Humans are not good at multitasking. It takes extra time and effort to switch our attention. We get interrupted so many times a day that these effects can add up to meaningful decreases in our well-being and social connection,” he added.
I am grateful to learn that the Bears have won. I'm eager for messages from my family. But I wonder why The New York Times feels it is urgent to inform me, as they did this week, about "The 6 Best Men's and Women's Sweaters".
This is, of course, a circumstance mostly of our own creation, constructed click by click. We can choose to check notifications just a couple of times a day. But does that risk delay, real or imagined, in seeing something we really need to see Or that would simply delight us
The promise of instant communication has grown into information congestion ( 拥 堵 ) .So many urgent notifications, not many of which are truly urgent; and only a few are even interesting. So many hours spent staring at the small screen, and searching for news, gossip, opportunity, and direction,
while so often being unaware of the world all around us.
32.What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph
A.Americans favor new notifications.
B.Smartphones can promote products.
C.New notifications constantly interrupt.
D.Push notification technology is advanced.
33.Which word best describes Kushlev's attitude to the ding of a notification
A.Tolerant. B.Favorable. C.Doubtful. D.Disapproving.
34.Which of the following statements may the author agree with
A.The prospect of push notifications looks promising.
B.Push notifications help users understand the world a lot.
C.Most of the instant notifications are unimportant.
D.Smartphone users should search for information directly.
35.Which is the most suitable title for the text
A.Fewer Dings,Please!
B.Times Have Changed!
C.Information Era Is Approaching.
D.Smartphone Addiction Has Increased.
三、七选五
36. “Anxiety.”The very word causes discomfort.Its effects—shortness of breath,pounding heart, muscle tension—are upsetting.Research shows that in and of itself,anxiety is not deadly,and it certainly is not a disease. ① ______.Once we accept the idea,we can use it to do well.Here are three aspects anxiety can help you.

Working out at the gym is supposed to be hard and uncomfortable,since it involves pushing our physical strength past what you can easily do. ② ______,if you want to build emotional strength and toughness.The experience of occasional anxiety and tension increases your emotional strength.

Humans are social creatures.The number one predictor of happiness is not financial success,or fame.It's the quality of our relationships.In the same way,sharing our anxieties with our loved ones is one of the most effective strategies to build connection.
It can help you readjust and rebalance
Often,all of us find ourselves at the end of our rope.Our responsibilities pile up,our resources break down,and we just don't have enough time to get everything done.We feel uncomfortably anxious most of the time.In such cases,what we're experiencing is called stress. ④ ______.The only real solutions to stress are to decrease our demands or increase our resources.Therefore,when we feel anxious because of stress,it's our body's way of telling us to readjust and rebalance.When we notice our internal cues,we become more focused overall and less stressed.
Therefore,anxiety can be a healthy,helpful emotion that is a constructive aspect of human life. ⑤ ______

54. It was Thursday morning.Phil was on a mission.Hurrying along the Primary 3 corridor,he was looking for his younger brother Jimmy,who had left the house early to walk to school with a friend and had forgotten his pocket money.As a Primary 6 boy,Phil had been asked to make sure that Jimmy had it in time for break.
Phil was about to enter his brother's classroom when he thought he saw the back of his brother's jacket further ahead.It must have been Jimmy.No one else in the school had a jacket like that one.
“Hey Jimmy!”he called out but his brother did not stop.Phil rushed forward and grabbed hold of the boy.But it wasn't Jimmy.It was someone Phil had never seen before and he was wearing Jimmy's jacket.As the boy struggled to break free,Mrs.Atkins came towards them.Immediately, sensing the teacher's presence,Phil released his grasp.Staring at both boys,Mrs.Atkins ordered them to follow her.Once they were at the school office,Mrs.Atkins asked the younger of the two to explain.
“I was walking along the corridor when this boy grabbed me.I didn't do anything!”explained Daniel.
“He stole my brother's jacket,”explained Phil.
“Liar!”Daniel immediately jumped to his feet and faced Phil,his fists tightly closed.“I have never stolen anything!This jacket is from my mother.Stop saying that!”
“Boys!I am sure this is a simple misunderstanding.Isn't possible that this is just an identical jacket,Phil ”Mrs.Atkins reasoned.
Phil shook his head forcefully."My mother got that jacket for me when she was overseas some years ago.Go on,look at the label inside the colar.It will say‘Di Roma'.That's because she got it in Rome.That is my jacket which I've outgrown so Jimmy,my younger brother,has been using it.”

解析:The American space agency NASA's human-like robot Valkyrie looks powerful.It stands 188 centimeters tall and weighs 136 kilograms.Valkyrie is named after a supernatural female in a mythology.The robot is being tested at the Johnson Space Center in Houston.The robot is designed to operate in severe environment,like areas hit by natural disasters,NASA said.But robots like Valkyrie could also work in space one day.Engineers believe that human-like robots will be able to work similarly to humans and use the same tools and equipment.NASA's Robotics team leader Shaun Azimi said human-like robots in space could do dangerous jobs.Such jobs include cleaning solar panels or dealing with equipment outside the spacecraft.As a result,human astronauts could pay more attention to exploration and discovery. “We're not trying to replace human crews,we're really just trying to take the dull,dirty and dangerous work off their plates to allow them to focus on those higher-level activities,”Azimi said.NASA is partnering with robotics companies like Apptronik.The goal is to learn how human-like robots developed.Now,Apptronik is developing Apollo,a human-like robot whose jobs on Earth will include working in warehouses and manufacturing factories.

Dear Jack,
I was looking at our school album just a few days earlier and I recalled how great our school days were. How much fun we used to have!
Do you remember the New Year's Day celebration we had last year?How much we enjoyed ourselves that day!We were all very excited because that was our last New Year's Day celebration in school. We all exchanged gifts and cards with each other in class, sharing our loving thoughts with each other and saying best wishes to everyone. I still keep those gifts and cards with me. I really hope that we can once again meet sometime and wish you success in your studying.
Yours,
Li Hua
