For eight years, Sophie created realistic-looking limbs（肢）for those who wanted to fit in. But she longed to work on more odd designs that would stand out. Then she met Pollyanna Hope, a young amputee（被截肢者）.
“She wanted something a little different on her leg: pictures of a cartoon she loved, Peppa Pig,” said Sophie, who is now based in London. So she designed a unique leg covered in tattoo-like images of Peppa and other pigs riding a bicycle and eating ice cream. Working with Hope made Sophie realize there was a potential market for limbs.
Since then, Sophie founded the Alternative Limb Project（ALP）to make artistic limbs. Her work includes an arm wrapped in sculpted snakes and a leg that looks like porcelain（瓷器）covered in a painted flowery vine. She makes about six limbs per year, always including clients’ ideas so that they receive a personal piece they can celebrate rather than hide.
Of course, a fancy-looking limb won’t suit everyone. For Sophie, the basis is that each limb must satisfy a combination of comfort, beauty and functionality, and pushing too hard in one direction can weaken other areas. But for amputees who appreciate novelty, Sophie has some amazing ideas.
“I`d really like to make a candy-dispenser（自动售卖机）leg with colorful candies inside it” she says. “Or a cuckoo-clock leg with a wooden bird that pops out every hour.” Her goal is to fashion a striking limb.
“It’ll transform the limbs from an elephant in the room into a conversation piece.”
39. Why did Pollyanna Hope come to Sophie
A. She hoped to have a customized limb. B. She intended to design a cartoon figure.
C. She longed to expand the market for limbs. D. She expected to sell Sophie some odd ideas.
40. According to paragraph 3, ALP aims to ______.
A. boost users’ confidence B. sharpen users’ creativity
C. improve Sophie’s sculpture skills D. extend Sophie’s art business
41. What is the basis for Sophie’s works
A. The novelty of the pattern tops the list. B. The balance of multi-needs comes first.
C. Fashion is the best policy. D. Functionality is the key.
42. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph
A. Sophie resolves to lead the fashion of limbs.
B. Sophie plans to further transform artistic limbs.
C. Amputees will feel at ease to talk about limbs.
D. Amputees will have easy access to artistic limbs.
C
People do better when more is expected of them. In education circles, this is called the Pygmalion Effect.
The Pygmalion effect got its name from the story of Pygmalion, a mythical（虚构的）Greek sculptor. Pygmalion carved a statue of a woman and then fell in love with it. He appealed to Aphrodite, the goddess of love, who brought the statue to life and helped the couple get married. Just as Pygmalion’s fixation on the statue brought it to life, teacher’s focus on a student can do the same in schools. Research by Robert Rosenthal and Lenore Jacobson examined the influence of teachers’ expectations on students’ performance. They began by testing the IQ of elementary school students. Teachers were told that the IQ test showed around one-fifth of their students to be unusually intelligent. But unknown to the teachers, the “gifted” students were chosen at random. Actually they had no big statistical advantage over the other kids. As the study period ended, all students had their IQs retested. Both groups showed an improvement. Yet those who were described as intelligent experienced much greater gains in their IQ points. Rosenthal and Jacobson owed this result to the Pygmalion effect. Teachers paid more attention to “gifted” students, offering more support and encouragement than they would otherwise.
In general, teachers have the power to influence how the students behave by holding high expectations. If a teacher thinks a student is brilliant, they will treat them as such. The student then gets more opportunities to develop their ability, and their performance improves. This works both ways. When a student expects a teacher to be excellent or successful, they tend to be attentive and supportive. In the process, they improve their performance, too. Students who act interested in lectures create interesting lectures.
43. Where did the Pygmalion effect get its name from
A. A statue of a lady. B. The goddess of love.
C. A character in a literary work. D. The story made up by Pygmalion.
44. The underlined expression “fixation on” in Paragraph 2 most probably means
A. worship of B. affection for C. marriage to D. sympathy for
45. What is the purpose of Rosenthal and Jacobson`s research
A. To improve the kids` IQ. B. To pick out gifted students.
C. To expand teachers` influence. D. To examine the Pygmalion effect.
46. What can students do to make a teacher excellent
A. Support the teacher by treating them as excellent.
B. Attend interesting lectures given by the teacher.
C. Work hard to get prepared for opportunities.
D. Show great interest in lectures on acting.
D
Livestreaming（直播带货）is a kind of e-commerce and marketing and sales method. It combines live product demonstrations, time-limited pricing promotions, live negotiations, and instant ordering through online streaming services hosted either by an influencer`s（网红）studio, or an online store.
Livestreaming removes barriers between brands and consumers. While it is focused on driving short term sales, livestreaming can enable firms to improve marketing efficiency by combining brand marketing and performance marketing. There are certain factors that will increase the chance of success.
Brands should not use livestreaming as a short-term sales booster but as a long-term way to remove barriers between brands and consumers. Specifically, brands could better show their products in this way, tell fuller brand stories, introduce emotional and cultural elements to their products, obtain instant feedback, conduct product trials, improve marketing efficiency by combining brand marketing and performance marketing, use different livestream hosts to build a bridge for the consumers and cultivate brand loyalty.
Of course, Livestreaming is not without drawbacks. For ads on TV, government has clear rules to forbid brands parading the before-and-after effects of health products. The restrictions are not clear yet for Internet-based livestreaming, and health products are frequently promoted by livestreamers. We need to continue to monitor regulatory updates carefully.
As promoting products through live-streaming has been compared to “turning clicks into cash,” some people have made illegal profits by creating false prosperity（繁荣）. Through the purchase of fake followers to increase shares and comments, some live streamers can make up their rate of engagement to cheat brands and companies in an effort to win more trust and make more money. Meanwhile, live-streams have also faced issues like the refund and exchange of products.
47. What does the author advise the brands to do with Livestreaming
A. To achieve as much sales as possible.
B. To focus more on brand marketing.
C. To remove barriers between brands and consumers.
D. To build a bridge between consumers and government
48. What does the underlined word “parading” probably mean
A. Overstating B. Comparing C. Displaying D. Describing
49. How do live streamers create false prosperity
A. By promoting the products as hard as possible.
B. By creating fake comments and shares.
C. By speaking highly of the brands and firms.
D. By refusing the exchange and the refund of products.
50. What’s the author’s attitude towards Livestreaming
A. Supportive B. Objective C. Critical D. Doubtful

That school year God blessed me with two trusted children—Tom and Mary. Whenever I went out for training programs or personal matters, I left everything to them.
However, the peace was ruined when one day I lost one thousand pesos（比索）in my bag. I always kept my wallet near me. I only chose my trusted students to get near my things. I kept the door of my office closed every time I went for my classes. My spine trembled upon seeing my money was no longer there. I scanned my wallet, my secret pocket and everything in my room. But all my attempts were in vain.
I was angry. That morning before my class ended, I appealed to everyone to help me catch the “thief”. At 4:00 in the afternoon that day, I reminded them about my warning of returning my money before investigation took place. Then suddenly, a boy called Larry said, “Miss, look at the paper on the floor!”
My heart beat wildly when I saw the crumpled paper which I thought useless. I replied to them immediately upon holding the paper. “Yes, here it is!” I showed it to them. They urged me to open the paper. I opened it and to my surprise, I saw the one thousand pesos! I felt relieved. Then, a letter appeared among the banknotes.
“Miss, I am sorry that I stole the money. I returned it. Do not tell my classmates that I returned the money and do not mention anything about it in class, because it hurts me. Thank you, Miss. But I can’t tell you why I stole your money.”
Oh my God! My brain flashed the handwriting of my trusted boy—the “thief”. I was sure this was Tom’s handwriting.

The next day, I called Tom to my office. The boy admitted that he was the thief and asked for my forgiveness. I asked him the reason. He said Mary’s mother was in hospital and Mary’s family didn’t have enough money to pay for the treatment. I said in earnest: “Tom, I’m quite touched by your golden heart, but taking money without permission is not a proper way to solve the problem.” Tom lowered his head in shame. “Come on! Let’s visit Mary’s mother and see what we can do for her.”
We went to the hospital and saw Mary’s mother. Mary’s mother was surprised to see us, but soon she collected herself and showed her great gratitude for us visiting her. Thinking of sensible Mary and kind-hearted Tom, I chose not to tell her the incident, comforted her and left the 1000 pesos and some more for her. On our way back, Tom hugged me tightly, tears in his eyes. Later Tom became a better person. Under proper guidance, a boy with a warm heart can shine more brightly.

M: I’ve just heard that Steven Cobb, the founder and CEO of Polyzon Corporation, will be visiting our city. He is scheduled to give a lecture at Laverne University.
W: Oh, this will be of great interest to everyone at our company. Mr Cobb has done so much for the field of electronics, especially the sizable amounts of money he has invested in promising start-up firms.
M: That’s why I’d like you to find out more about his lecture by getting in touch with the Public Affairs Department at the university. I’ve already tried to contact Mr Cobb directly, but I have yet to hear anything back from him or his staff. I’m sure our employees would like to know about the event and find out how to get tickets.

M:
Today, I’d like to tell you a story. This happened when I was about eight or nine. I went to a large school in the city center. We didn’t know anything about the countryside—all we knew about was London. So, one day my teacher decided to take the class to the countryside. It was a two-hour journey in the school bus. We started out at 8: 00, and when we got there, we looked at trees and nature and birds and things like that. Anyway, on the final part of the trip, in the afternoon, we went horse-riding. Now, it was the first time most of us had even seen a horse, and we had to get on it and ride. And everyone was moving really slowly on these horses. And, what did my horse do It decided to run off, with me on top of it. At first it didn’t go too fast. But all of a sudden it started moving very fast. So there I was screaming and shouting, with my arms around this horse, and it just wouldn’t stop. I don’t know how I didn’t fall off. Eventually, I managed to stop it. And afterwards I was so frightened that I was shaking for about an hour. It was the most embarrassing and frightening experience. I’ll never forget it. I’ve never been on a horse since that day.

For eight years, Sophie created realistic-looking limbs（肢）for those who wanted to fit in. But she longed to work on more odd designs that would stand out. Then she met Pollyanna Hope, a young amputee（被截肢者）.
“She wanted something a little different on her leg: pictures of a cartoon she loved, Peppa Pig,” said Sophie, who is now based in London. So she designed a unique leg covered in tattoo-like images of Peppa and other pigs riding a bicycle and eating ice cream. Working with Hope made Sophie realize there was a potential market for limbs.
Since then, Sophie founded the Alternative Limb Project（ALP）to make artistic limbs. Her work includes an arm wrapped in sculpted snakes and a leg that looks like porcelain（瓷器）covered in a painted flowery vine. She makes about six limbs per year, always including clients’ ideas so that they receive a personal piece they can celebrate rather than hide.
Of course, a fancy-looking limb won’t suit everyone. For Sophie, the basis is that each limb must satisfy a combination of comfort, beauty and functionality, and pushing too hard in one direction can weaken other areas. But for amputees who appreciate novelty, Sophie has some amazing ideas.
“I`d really like to make a candy-dispenser（自动售卖机）leg with colorful candies inside it” she says. “Or a cuckoo-clock leg with a wooden bird that pops out every hour.” Her goal is to fashion a striking limb.
“It’ll transform the limbs from an elephant in the room into a conversation piece.”
39. Why did Pollyanna Hope come to Sophie
A. She hoped to have a customized limb. B. She intended to design a cartoon figure.
C. She longed to expand the market for limbs. D. She expected to sell Sophie some odd ideas.
40. According to paragraph 3, ALP aims to ______.
A. boost users’ confidence B. sharpen users’ creativity
C. improve Sophie’s sculpture skills D. extend Sophie’s art business
41. What is the basis for Sophie’s works
A. The novelty of the pattern tops the list. B. The balance of multi-needs comes first.
C. Fashion is the best policy. D. Functionality is the key.
42. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph
A. Sophie resolves to lead the fashion of limbs.
B. Sophie plans to further transform artistic limbs.
C. Amputees will feel at ease to talk about limbs.
D. Amputees will have easy access to artistic limbs.
C
People do better when more is expected of them. In education circles, this is called the Pygmalion Effect.
The Pygmalion effect got its name from the story of Pygmalion, a mythical（虚构的）Greek sculptor. Pygmalion carved a statue of a woman and then fell in love with it. He appealed to Aphrodite, the goddess of love, who brought the statue to life and helped the couple get married. Just as Pygmalion’s fixation on the statue brought it to life, teacher’s focus on a student can do the same in schools. Research by Robert Rosenthal and Lenore Jacobson examined the influence of teachers’ expectations on students’ performance. They began by testing the IQ of elementary school students. Teachers were told that the IQ test showed around one-fifth of their students to be unusually intelligent. But unknown to the teachers, the “gifted” students were chosen at random. Actually they had no big statistical advantage over the other kids. As the study period ended, all students had their IQs retested. Both groups showed an improvement. Yet those who were described as intelligent experienced much greater gains in their IQ points. Rosenthal and Jacobson owed this result to the Pygmalion effect. Teachers paid more attention to “gifted” students, offering more support and encouragement than they would otherwise.
In general, teachers have the power to influence how the students behave by holding high expectations. If a teacher thinks a student is brilliant, they will treat them as such. The student then gets more opportunities to develop their ability, and their performance improves. This works both ways. When a student expects a teacher to be excellent or successful, they tend to be attentive and supportive. In the process, they improve their performance, too. Students who act interested in lectures create interesting lectures.
43. Where did the Pygmalion effect get its name from
A. A statue of a lady. B. The goddess of love.
C. A character in a literary work. D. The story made up by Pygmalion.
44. The underlined expression “fixation on” in Paragraph 2 most probably means
A. worship of B. affection for C. marriage to D. sympathy for
45. What is the purpose of Rosenthal and Jacobson`s research
A. To improve the kids` IQ. B. To pick out gifted students.
C. To expand teachers` influence. D. To examine the Pygmalion effect.
46. What can students do to make a teacher excellent
A. Support the teacher by treating them as excellent.
B. Attend interesting lectures given by the teacher.
C. Work hard to get prepared for opportunities.
D. Show great interest in lectures on acting.
D
Livestreaming（直播带货）is a kind of e-commerce and marketing and sales method. It combines live product demonstrations, time-limited pricing promotions, live negotiations, and instant ordering through online streaming services hosted either by an influencer`s（网红）studio, or an online store.
Livestreaming removes barriers between brands and consumers. While it is focused on driving short term sales, livestreaming can enable firms to improve marketing efficiency by combining brand marketing and performance marketing. There are certain factors that will increase the chance of success.
Brands should not use livestreaming as a short-term sales booster but as a long-term way to remove barriers between brands and consumers. Specifically, brands could better show their products in this way, tell fuller brand stories, introduce emotional and cultural elements to their products, obtain instant feedback, conduct product trials, improve marketing efficiency by combining brand marketing and performance marketing, use different livestream hosts to build a bridge for the consumers and cultivate brand loyalty.
Of course, Livestreaming is not without drawbacks. For ads on TV, government has clear rules to forbid brands parading the before-and-after effects of health products. The restrictions are not clear yet for Internet-based livestreaming, and health products are frequently promoted by livestreamers. We need to continue to monitor regulatory updates carefully.
As promoting products through live-streaming has been compared to “turning clicks into cash,” some people have made illegal profits by creating false prosperity（繁荣）. Through the purchase of fake followers to increase shares and comments, some live streamers can make up their rate of engagement to cheat brands and companies in an effort to win more trust and make more money. Meanwhile, live-streams have also faced issues like the refund and exchange of products.
47. What does the author advise the brands to do with Livestreaming
A. To achieve as much sales as possible.
B. To focus more on brand marketing.
C. To remove barriers between brands and consumers.
D. To build a bridge between consumers and government
48. What does the underlined word “parading” probably mean
A. Overstating B. Comparing C. Displaying D. Describing
49. How do live streamers create false prosperity
A. By promoting the products as hard as possible.
B. By creating fake comments and shares.
C. By speaking highly of the brands and firms.
D. By refusing the exchange and the refund of products.
50. What’s the author’s attitude towards Livestreaming
A. Supportive B. Objective C. Critical D. Doubtful

That school year God blessed me with two trusted children—Tom and Mary. Whenever I went out for training programs or personal matters, I left everything to them.
However, the peace was ruined when one day I lost one thousand pesos（比索）in my bag. I always kept my wallet near me. I only chose my trusted students to get near my things. I kept the door of my office closed every time I went for my classes. My spine trembled upon seeing my money was no longer there. I scanned my wallet, my secret pocket and everything in my room. But all my attempts were in vain.
I was angry. That morning before my class ended, I appealed to everyone to help me catch the “thief”. At 4:00 in the afternoon that day, I reminded them about my warning of returning my money before investigation took place. Then suddenly, a boy called Larry said, “Miss, look at the paper on the floor!”
My heart beat wildly when I saw the crumpled paper which I thought useless. I replied to them immediately upon holding the paper. “Yes, here it is!” I showed it to them. They urged me to open the paper. I opened it and to my surprise, I saw the one thousand pesos! I felt relieved. Then, a letter appeared among the banknotes.
“Miss, I am sorry that I stole the money. I returned it. Do not tell my classmates that I returned the money and do not mention anything about it in class, because it hurts me. Thank you, Miss. But I can’t tell you why I stole your money.”
Oh my God! My brain flashed the handwriting of my trusted boy—the “thief”. I was sure this was Tom’s handwriting.

The next day, I called Tom to my office. The boy admitted that he was the thief and asked for my forgiveness. I asked him the reason. He said Mary’s mother was in hospital and Mary’s family didn’t have enough money to pay for the treatment. I said in earnest: “Tom, I’m quite touched by your golden heart, but taking money without permission is not a proper way to solve the problem.” Tom lowered his head in shame. “Come on! Let’s visit Mary’s mother and see what we can do for her.”
We went to the hospital and saw Mary’s mother. Mary’s mother was surprised to see us, but soon she collected herself and showed her great gratitude for us visiting her. Thinking of sensible Mary and kind-hearted Tom, I chose not to tell her the incident, comforted her and left the 1000 pesos and some more for her. On our way back, Tom hugged me tightly, tears in his eyes. Later Tom became a better person. Under proper guidance, a boy with a warm heart can shine more brightly.

M: What time is it We’re going to be late!
W: It’s 7:15. We’re on time. Don’t panic.
M: But I thought we had to be at the restaurant by 7:30 for the surprise party. We’ll never make it
there with all this evening traffic.
W: Sure we will. Rush hour is almost over. Anyway, the party starts at 8:00. But I do need help with directions. Can you call the restaurant and ask them where we park our car

M: Okay, Ms Hodge, we’ve organized your hotel room and car rental. The last thing we need to do is finalize your flight ticket. You just need a one-way ticket, right
W: That’s right. I’d like a seat on Corsair Airways Flight CA 56. I already checked the tickets online, and I’d like the one that costs $520.
M: No problem…I’ll get that booked for you straight away. Do you have any special requirements
W: Actually, yes. Please make sure that I get a vegetarian meal. And, I’d prefer a seat next to a window.

M: I’ve just heard that Steven Cobb, the founder and CEO of Polyzon Corporation, will be visiting our city. He is scheduled to give a lecture at Laverne University.
W: Oh, this will be of great interest to everyone at our company. Mr Cobb has done so much for the field of electronics, especially the sizable amounts of money he has invested in promising start-up firms.
M: That’s why I’d like you to find out more about his lecture by getting in touch with the Public Affairs Department at the university. I’ve already tried to contact Mr Cobb directly, but I have yet to hear anything back from him or his staff. I’m sure our employees would like to know about the event and find out how to get tickets.

W: Jordan, have you got any cheese Bert said you might be running low.
M: Sally, I’ve got a little but I haven’t got much. We need a lot more for this dinner tomorrow. Do you think we should change the menu If not, I must go to the grocery store and get some.
W: We can’t change the menu. That’s what the guests have requested. If we get it now, do you think you’ll have enough time
M: If I leave now, I think we should be okay.
W: Hmm…I was thinking of sending Bert as we need you here preparing the food.
M: Oh no! Don’t send Bert! He’s not experienced enough. He also gets lost easily.
W: Really ! I’ve not seen that side of him.
M: He’s just young and not good under pressure. He’ll get better with time and experience.
W: Okay, how about Elizabeth
M: Great idea. Bert can take over cutting the cabbages and tomatoes from her, then, continue with the salads.
W: Excellent, I’ll get her on it now.
M: Thanks so much!

M:
Today, I’d like to tell you a story. This happened when I was about eight or nine. I went to a large school in the city center. We didn’t know anything about the countryside—all we knew about was London. So, one day my teacher decided to take the class to the countryside. It was a two-hour journey in the school bus. We started out at 8: 00, and when we got there, we looked at trees and nature and birds and things like that. Anyway, on the final part of the trip, in the afternoon, we went horse-riding. Now, it was the first time most of us had even seen a horse, and we had to get on it and ride. And everyone was moving really slowly on these horses. And, what did my horse do It decided to run off, with me on top of it. At first it didn’t go too fast. But all of a sudden it started moving very fast. So there I was screaming and shouting, with my arms around this horse, and it just wouldn’t stop. I don’t know how I didn’t fall off. Eventually, I managed to stop it. And afterwards I was so frightened that I was shaking for about an hour. It was the most embarrassing and frightening experience. I’ll never forget it. I’ve never been on a horse since that day.
