I used to be anorexic (厌食的). I was bony, each of my rib bones jutted out, like ridges on my body, my head, which looked abnormally huge, was barely supported by my backbone.
It would take an hour for me to eat a spoon of food. Should I attempt to eat to please my parents or teachers, I would lock myself in the toilet and throw up the food. I looked pale and weak all the time because of the lack of food. My family members were anxious. They cried a lot.
It all started when a boy in my class called me “fat”. I was shocked and upset. I adopted an extremely strict diet and exercise routine. I lost 10 kg within three months and continued to lose more weight. I was absolutely
crazy about losing even more weight. One day, my heart rate dropped and I was breathless. I almost lost my life. That was when I decided to turn my life around.
Looking good is extremely important to a teenager. We want to look a certain way so we can be popular and accepted. We are attracted by well-toned and sculpted bodies. Now, with social media, we have access to a pool of photographs of people, whose bodies and appearances we admire. Those images make us envious. We long to be like them.
We’re in danger when we start to hate the way we look and take drastic measures to attain the body we dream of having. These measures can lead to eating disorders, unrealistic and unhealthy exercise habits, low self-esteem and depression. Besides affecting the physical health, teenagers who are body conscious can also suffer from mental instability. They may fall into desperation, guilt and hopelessness if they are unable to keep up with their rigid exercise routines or eating habits. They can be emotionally fragile (脆弱的) too. They become sensitive to comments made by others. They are ashamed of the way they look. If you are currently experiencing these feelings, seek help before it is too late.
It is important to feel confident and positive about your image and not agree with man-made standards of beauty, which will change with time.
34. What led to the poor condition of the author
A. Some illness. B. A strict diet. C. Lack of food to eat. D. Her desire to kill herself.
35. Why did the author decide to turn her life around
A. To look good. B. To stay healthy. C. To satisfy her parents. D. To disappoint the boy.
36. What does the underlined word “drastic” in Paragraph 5 mean
A. Extreme. B. Supportive. C. Temporary. D. Preventive.
37. What is the best title for this passage
A. Be Unique B. Seek Beauty C. Build Your Body D. Accept Your Body
C
Social media is taking over our lives: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and now, TikTok. These social media platforms have transformed from a way to stay connected to an industry where even kids can make money off their posts. While this may seem like another opportunistic (机会主义) innovation, it’s really full of hidden false realities.
The median income (中位收入) recorded in the United States of America was about $63,000 in 2018. TikTokers can make anywhere from $50,000 to $150,000 for a TikTok brand partnership, and TikTokers with over
a million followers can make up to $30,000 a month — $360,000 a year. They are making more than the average person trying to feed their family and keep a roof over their heads, simply by posting a 15-second video.
This is mad in more ways than one. Not only is it an overpaid “job”, it promotes undeserved admiration from viewers and a false sense of reality. Many of these famous TikTokers are still teens, and the effects of fame at such an early stage in life might cause issues later in life, such as mental illness. Teens between the ages of 13 and 17 make up 27% of TikTok viewers, who can be easily influenced by what they are watching. They can put a false sense of self-value into who they look up to and what they represent: money, fame, being considered conventionally attractive.
While TikTok has become a great tool for marketing, it’s important to understand how this content affects young viewers. If we’re constantly consuming content that shows us all we need to do to be successful is be conventionally attractive and post a 15-second video featuring a new dance, it will challenge our knowledge of what really makes someone successful and will in turn affect our individual work ethics (伦理). What about the people who miss birthday and family holidays due to their jobs and aren’t getting paid nearly as much as these TikTokers
Richard Colyer, president and creator of Metaphor, Inc, had his own view on this issue. “It sounds great to make money for doing the latest dance moves in a 15-second video, but we should feed the minds of kids and not just their bank accounts. TikTok can be great if used properly. Money alone is not good, technology alone is not good and connectedness can be bad if it’s only online.”
Again, as a fellow consumer of TikTok, I do enjoy the app when I have some time to kill and need a good laugh. I’m not against someone making a living on entertainment, but what does getting famous of a 15-second video teach young people
38. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to
A. Social networking. B. Making money on social media.
C. A job offered by TikTok. D. Staying connected to the Internet.
39. What do the numbers given in Paragraph 2 show
A. TikTokers are earning money easily.
B. All TikTokers are richer than average people.
C. Most TikTokers can become millionaires overnight.
D. TikTokers earn much more than ordinary workers.
40. Which is the possible influence of TikTok on its young users
A. They tend to live an adult life too soon. B. They are forced to pay for certain services.
C. They may abandon other social media. D. They are likely to develop false value.
41. What can we infer from Richard Colyer’s comments
A. TikTok can be a positive influence if teens employ it wisely.
B. Young TikTokers should be banned from making money.
C. It is better to involve education on investment in TikTok videos.
D. Contents of videos need checking before their release online.
D
Recently, more than 1,000 researchers and executives signed an open letter calling for a pause (暂停) in research on artificial intelligence. The letter warns that AI may threaten jobs, spread propaganda (宣传), and even lead to the “loss of control of our civilization”. Many of the signatories (签署者) are thoughtful and experienced AI practitioners. Their concerns should be taken seriously. On balance, though, their approach is likely to evolve into an opposition to progress.
Consider the broader worldview expressed in this document. It said, “Powerful AI systems should be developed only once we are confident that their effects will be positive and risks manageable.” This is a formula for complete stop, as no one can ever be so confident. The history of innovation is one of trial and error, risk and reward. One reason why the US leads the world in digital technology is that it did not constrain (约束) the industry with well-meaning but doubtful regulation. Slowing AI progress, moreover, carries risks all its own. Don’t forget that this technology is likely to make the world richer, healthier, smarter and more productive for decades to come. By 2030, it might be contributing more than $15 trillion to the global economy. Advances in medicine, biology, climate science, education, manufacturing, transportation and much more are on the horizon. Any new rules must be balanced against the vast potential of these efforts.
Nor is AI research advancing into a void (空白领域). The industry already operates within legal parameters (范畴) in response to potential panies have ensured their products are safe. Trade associations are developing codes of conduct and ethical frameworks. Far from the “out-of-control race”, the AI business is constrained by law and politics and consumer sentiment (情绪).
It’s natural to worry about new technologies, but the wealth and abundance of American society is due in no small part to risks taken in the past, in a spirit of openness and optimism. The AI revolution deserves no less.
42. Why did the researchers and executives sign the open letter
A. Because the research on AI had been paused.
B. Because AI had uncontrollably destroyed human civilization.
C. Because they were worried about the potential risks of AI.
D. Because they were more experienced than others in AI field.
43. Why is the US mentioned in paragraph 2
A. To support that innovation comes from taking risks.
B. To stress that the US is very important in the digital field.
C. To draw attention to the benefits of well-meaning regulations.
D. To reveal those people’s real purpose of signing the letter.
44. What can we infer from this passage
A. AI technology consumes more money than it can earn.
B. Society will hugely benefit from AI technology in the future.
C. The AI industry is now developing without any restrictions.
D. The development of AI technology is just a solo effort.
45. What is the passage mainly about
A. Regulations on AI are well-intended but doubtful.
B. The future of AI is filled with unmanageable risks.
C. AI safety concerns justify a temporary research pause.
D. A pause in AI would hold back progress in innovation.

【原文】
Good evening, everyone! Tonight, I’d like to share with you something about the Bermuda Triangle on the program. Have you ever heard about the Bermuda Triangle It was on everyone’s lips from about 1950 till about 1980. During that time, people were convinced that mysterious powers were at work there, causing the disappearance of many airplanes and ships.
The Bermuda Triangle is a large triangular area in the Atlantic Ocean. It became famous in 1950, after the Miami Herald published an article by Edward Jones about five American planes disappearing within that area in 1945. A U.S. Navy search plane was sent out to look for them but it also vanished.
People started wondering what had happened, and in 1964 Vincent Gaddis wrote an article called “The Deadly Bermuda Triangle”. It was followed by several books, and very quickly, almost everyone in the world was talking about the mysterious Bermuda Triangle.
In 1975, however, a librarian by the name of Larry Kusche published a book. The book shows that the tales about the Bermuda Triangle and its dangers are mostly untrue. He proved that planes or ships disappearing within the Bermuda Triangle are not more than anywhere else on the Earth, and that the Bermuda Triangle is just a sensational story.
In 2013, a list of the world’s most dangerous shipping lanes was published. The Bermuda Triangle wasn’t even mentioned on the list!

I used to be anorexic (厌食的). I was bony, each of my rib bones jutted out, like ridges on my body, my head, which looked abnormally huge, was barely supported by my backbone.
It would take an hour for me to eat a spoon of food. Should I attempt to eat to please my parents or teachers, I would lock myself in the toilet and throw up the food. I looked pale and weak all the time because of the lack of food. My family members were anxious. They cried a lot.
It all started when a boy in my class called me “fat”. I was shocked and upset. I adopted an extremely strict diet and exercise routine. I lost 10 kg within three months and continued to lose more weight. I was absolutely crazy about losing even more weight. One day, my heart rate dropped and I was breathless. I almost lost my life.
That was when I decided to turn my life around.
Looking good is extremely important to a teenager. We want to look a certain way so we can be popular and accepted. We are attracted by well-toned and sculpted bodies. Now, with social media, we have access to a pool of photographs of people, whose bodies and appearances we admire. Those images make us envious. We long to be like them.
We’re in danger when we start to hate the way we look and take drastic measures to attain the body we dream of having. These measures can lead to eating disorders, unrealistic and unhealthy exercise habits, low self-esteem and depression. Besides affecting the physical health, teenagers who are body conscious can also suffer from mental instability. They may fall into desperation, guilt and hopelessness if they are unable to keep up with their rigid exercise routines or eating habits. They can be emotionally fragile (脆弱的) too. They become sensitive to comments made by others. They are ashamed of the way they look. If you are currently experiencing these feelings, seek help before it is too late.
It is important to feel confident and positive about your image and not agree with man-made standards of beauty, which will change with time.

【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，作者以自己的亲身经历讲述了厌食症对身体的危害，告诫人们要接受自己的身体，不要盲目听从他人。
34. 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“I adopted an extremely strict diet and exercise routine. I lost 10 kg within three months and continued to lose more weight. I was absolutely crazy about losing even more weight. One day, my heart rate dropped and I was breathless. I almost lost my life.(我采取了极其严格的饮食和锻炼习惯。我在三个月内减掉了10公斤，而且还在继续减重。我疯狂地想要减掉更多的体重。有一天，我的心率下降，上气不接下气。我差点丧命)”可知，作者严格节食，导致她的身体健康状况变差。故选B。

C
Social media is taking over our lives: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and now, TikTok. These social media platforms have transformed from a way to stay connected to an industry where even kids can make money off their posts. While this may seem like another opportunistic (机会主义) innovation, it’s really full of hidden false realities.
The median income (中位收入) recorded in the United States of America was about $63,000 in 2018. TikTokers can make anywhere from $50,000 to $150,000 for a TikTok brand partnership, and TikTokers with over a million followers can make up to $30,000 a month — $360,000 a year. They are making more than the average person trying to feed their family and keep a roof over their heads, simply by posting a 15-second video.
This is mad in more ways than one. Not only is it an overpaid “job”, it promotes undeserved admiration from viewers and a false sense of reality. Many of these famous TikTokers are still teens, and the effects of fame at such an early stage in life might cause issues later in life, such as mental illness. Teens between the ages of 13 and 17 make up 27% of TikTok viewers, who can be easily influenced by what they are watching. They can put a false sense of self-value into who they look up to and what they represent: money, fame, being considered conventionally attractive.
While TikTok has become a great tool for marketing, it’s important to understand how this content affects
young viewers. If we’re constantly consuming content that shows us all we need to do to be successful is be conventionally attractive and post a 15-second video featuring a new dance, it will challenge our knowledge of what really makes someone successful and will in turn affect our individual work ethics (伦理). What about the people who miss birthday and family holidays due to their jobs and aren’t getting paid nearly as much as these TikTokers
Richard Colyer, president and creator of Metaphor, Inc, had his own view on this issue. “It sounds great to make money for doing the latest dance moves in a 15-second video, but we should feed the minds of kids and not just their bank accounts. TikTok can be great if used properly. Money alone is not good, technology alone is not good and connectedness can be bad if it’s only online.”
Again, as a fellow consumer of TikTok, I do enjoy the app when I have some time to kill and need a good laugh. I’ m not against someone making a living on entertainment, but what does getting famous of a 15-second video teach young people
38. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to
A. Social networking. B. Making money on social media.
C. A job offered by TikTok. D. Staying connected to the Internet.
39. What do the numbers given in Paragraph 2 show
A. TikTokers are earning money easily.
B. All TikTokers are richer than average people.
C. Most TikTokers can become millionaires overnight.
D. TikTokers earn much more than ordinary workers.
40. Which is the possible influence of TikTok on its young users
A. They tend to live an adult life too soon. B. They are forced to pay for certain services.
C. They may abandon other social media. D. They are likely to develop false value.
41. What can we infer from Richard Colyer’s comments
A. TikTok can be a positive influence if teens employ it wisely.
B. Young TikTokers should be banned from making money.
C. It is better to involve education on investment in TikTok videos.
D. Contents of videos need checking before their release online.
【答案】38. B 39. A 40. D 41. A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍当今社交媒体平台已经从一种保持联系的方式转变为一种连孩子都
可以通过发帖赚钱的行业，然而过早接触可能会在以后的生活中造成问题。
38. 词句猜测题。根据文章第一段划线词前句“These social media platforms have transformed from a way to stay connected to an industry where even kids can make money off their posts.( 这些社交媒体平台已经从一种保持联系的方式转变为一种连孩子都可以通过发帖赚钱的行业)”可猜测，this指代的是在社交媒体上赚钱。故选B项。
39. 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“TikTokers can make anywhere from $50,000 to $150,000 for a TikTok brand partnership, and TikTokers with over a million followers can make up to $30,000 a month—$360,000 a year. They are making more than the average person trying to feed their family and keep a roof over their heads, simply by posting a 15-second video.”（在TikTok上，用户可以通过品牌合作赚取5万到15万美元，拥有超过一百万粉丝的用户每月可以赚取高达3万美元，一年就是36万美元。他们仅仅通过发布15秒的视频，就能赚取比普通人更多的钱。）可推知，TikToker很容易赚钱。故选A项。
40. 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“They can put a false sense of self-value into who they look up to and what they represent: money, fame, being considered conventionally attractive.(他们会把错误的自我价值观念强加于他们所崇拜的人和他们所代表的东西上:金钱、名誉、传统意义上的吸引力)”可知，TikTok会让孩子形成错误的价值观。故选D项。
41. 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“TikTok can be great if used properly.(如果使用得当，TikTok可以很棒)”可知，Richard Colyer认为如果青少年明智地使用TikTok，它可以产生积极的影响。故选A项。
D
Recently, more than 1,000 researchers and executives signed an open letter calling for a pause (暂停) in research on artificial intelligence. The letter warns that AI may threaten jobs, spread propaganda (宣传), and even lead to the “loss of control of our civilization”. Many of the signatories (签署者) are thoughtful and experienced AI practitioners. Their concerns should be taken seriously. On balance, though, their approach is likely to evolve into an opposition to progress.
Consider the broader worldview expressed in this document. It said, “Powerful AI systems should be developed only once we are confident that their effects will be positive and risks manageable.” This is a formula for complete stop, as no one can ever be so confident. The history of innovation is one of trial and error, risk and reward. One reason why the US leads the world in digital technology is that it did not constrain (约束) the industry with well-meaning but doubtful regulation. Slowing AI progress, moreover, carries risks all its own. Don’t forget that this technology is likely to make the world richer, healthier, smarter and more productive for decades to come. By 2030, it might be contributing more than $15 trillion to the global economy. Advances in medicine, biology,
climate science, education, manufacturing, transportation and much more are on the horizon. Any new rules must be balanced against the vast potential of these efforts.
Nor is AI research advancing into a void (空白领域). The industry already operates within legal parameters (范畴) in response to potential panies have ensured their products are safe. Trade associations are developing codes of conduct and ethical frameworks. Far from the“ out-of-control race”, the AI business is constrained by law and politics and consumer sentiment (情绪).
It’s natural to worry about new technologies, but the wealth and abundance of American society is due in no small part to risks taken in the past, in a spirit of openness and optimism. The AI revolution deserves no less.
42. Why did the researchers and executives sign the open letter
A. Because the research on AI had been paused.
B. Because AI had uncontrollably destroyed human civilization.
C. Because they were worried about the potential risks of AI.
D. Because they were more experienced than others in AI field.
43. Why is the US mentioned in paragraph 2
A. To support that innovation comes from taking risks.
B. To stress that the US is very important in the digital field.
C. To draw attention to the benefits of well-meaning regulations.
D. To reveal those people's real purpose of signing the letter.
44. What can we infer from this passage
A. AI technology consumes more money than it can earn.
B. Society will hugely benefit from AI technology in the future.
C. The AI industry is now developing without any restrictions.
D. The development of AI technology is just a solo effort.
45. What is the passage mainly about
A. Regulations on AI are well-intended but doubtful.
B. The future of AI is filled with unmanageable risks.
C. AI safety concerns justify a temporary research pause.
D. A pause in AI would hold back progress in innovation.
【答案】42. C 43. A 44. B 45. D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。最近，1000多名研究人员和高管签署了一封公开信，呼吁暂停人工智能的研究。
这封信警告说，人工智能可能会威胁到就业，传播宣传，甚至导致“对我们文明的失控”。许多签名者都是深思熟虑且经验丰富的人工智能从业者。他们的担忧应该得到认真对待。但总的来说，他们的做法很可能演变成反对进步。
42. 细节理解题。根据第一段“The letter warns that AI may threaten jobs, spread propaganda (宣传), and even lead to the “loss of control of our civilization”.(这封信警告说，人工智能可能会威胁到就业，传播宣传，甚至导致“对我们文明的失控”)”可知，研究人员和高管们签署了这封公开信是因为他们担心人工智能的潜在风险。故选C。
43. 推理判断题。根据第二段“The history of innovation is one of trial and error, risk and reward. One reason why the US leads the world in digital technology is that it did not constrain the industry with well-meaning but doubtful regulation.(创新的历史是一部试错、冒险和回报的历史。美国在数字技术领域领先世界的一个原因是，它没有用善意但令人怀疑的监管来限制该行业)”可推知，第3段提到了美国是为了支持创新需要承担风险的论点。故选A。
44. 推理判断题。根据第三段“Advances in medicine, biology, climate science, education, manufacturing, transportation and much more are on the horizon. Any new rules must be balanced against the vast potential of these efforts.(医学、生物学、气候科学、教育、制造业、交通运输等领域的进步即将到来。任何新规则都必须与这些努力的巨大潜力相平衡)”根据文章最后一段“It's natural to worry about new technologies, but the wealth and abundance of American society is due in no small part to risks taken in the past, in a spirit of openness and optimism. The AI revolution deserves no less.”（担心新技术是很自然的，但美国社会的财富和丰富多彩在很大程度上要归功于过去冒险的精神，这种精神是开放和乐观的。人工智能革命也应该得到同样的待遇）可推知，未来社会将从AI技术中获得巨大的利益。故选B。
45. 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Recently, more than 1,000 researchers and executives signed an open letter calling for a pause (暂停) in research on artificial intelligence. The letter warns that AI may threaten jobs, spread propaganda(宣传), and even lead to the “loss of control of our civilization”.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
If you are making the time to exercise, that is a good thing indeed! With such busy lives, it can be hard to find time to work out. If you are planning to do exercise regularly, or you’re doing it now, then listen up! 46 Here are the reasons:
● Your working efficiency (效率) will improve. Exercising in the morning makes you more awake and ready to handle whatever is in front of you for the day. 47
● Your metabolism (新陈代谢) will get a head start. 48 So if you work out in the mornings, you will get the calorie burning benefits for the whole day.
● 49 Studies have found that people who wake up early and exercise sleep better than those who exercise in the evening. Exercise energizes you, so if you exercise at night, it is more difficult to relax and have a peaceful sleep.
● You will pay more attention to your diet. If you work out bright and early in the morning, you will be more likely to choose healthy food throughout the day. 50 You will want to continue to focus on positive choices.
There are a lot of benefits to working out, especially in the mornings. Set your alarm clock an hour early and push yourself to work out! You will feel energized all day long.
A. Your quality of sleep will improve.
B. Your lungs will take in more fresh air.
C. There is no reason to exercise in the morning.
D. Who wants to waste a good workout by eating junk food
E. You can keep your head clear for 4 to 10 hours after exercise.
F. After you exercise, you continue to burn calories throughout the day.
G. Working out in the morning provides additional benefits other than keeping fit.
【答案】46. G 47. E 48. F 49. A 50. D

If you are planning to do exercise regularly, or you’re doing it now, then listen up!(如果你抽出时间来锻炼，那确实是一件好事!在如此忙碌的生活中，很难找到时间去锻炼。如果你计划定期锻炼，或者你现在正在锻炼，那么听好了!)”可知，前文讲述锻炼是一件好事，并且准备发表观点，根据后文内容可知，本文主要讲述早起锻炼的好处，所以G项“Working out in the morning provides additional benefits

Exercising in the morning makes you more awake and ready to handle whatever is in front of you for the day.(你的工作效率会提高。早上锻炼能让你更清醒，更好地处理这一天的事情)”可知，本段主要讲述早上锻炼能提高工作效率，所以E项“You can keep your head clear for 4 to 10 hours after exercise.(你可以在运动后保持头脑清醒4到10个小时)”符合本段主题，是对前文的进一步说明。故选E项。

49. 设空位于段首，为本段中心句，根据后文“Studies have found that people who wake up early and exercise sleep better than those who exercise in the evening. Exercise energizes you, so if you exercise at night, it is more difficult to relax and have a peaceful sleep.(研究发现，早起锻炼的人比晚上锻炼的人睡得更好。运动使你精力充沛，所以如果你在晚上运动，就很难放松下来，睡个安稳觉)”可知，本段主要讲述了早起锻炼让睡眠更好，所以A项“Your quality of sleep will improve.(你的睡眠质量会得到改善)”符合本段主题，为本段中心句。故选A项。
50. 根据前文“You will pay more attention to your diet. If you work out bright and early in the morning, you will be more likely to choose healthy food throughout the day.(你会更注意你的饮食。如果你在清晨锻炼，你将更有可能选择健康的食物一整天)”可知，本段讲述了早起锻炼对饮食上的好处，所以D项“Who wants to waste a good workout by eating junk food (谁想浪费一个好的锻炼时间去吃垃圾食品呢 )”符合本段主题。故选D项。
