Best outdoor theatres to enjoy this summer
With the seasons changing, now is the wonderful time to start planning summer experiences at outdoor theatres in parks, city squares, woodlands and even the side of a cliff!
Storyhouse Theatre, Chester
Every summer in July, Storyhouse Theatre packs up their props, and builds an entire amphitheatre (露天剧场) along the road in Grosvenor Park. This year sees touring productions of Little Shop of Horrors, The Massive Tragedy of Madame Bovary and the usually unknown works of Shakespeare amongst other things.
Thorington Theatre, Suffolk
A new and beautiful addition to the outdoor theatre world, opening in 2021, Thorington is a natural amphitheatre hidden in the Suffolk woodlands. This year’s programme includes family favorites such as Teddy Bear’s Picnic and The Little Mermaid. You can also now order a picnic to meet you an hour before your show in an adjoining field.
Minack Theatre, Cornwall
Built into a cliff face in Porthcurno, you hardly need an excuse to visit this theatre; seeing anything at all, back dropped by the blue Cornish sea, will be an unforgettable experience. If you want a show particularly fitting for this unique surroundings, check out The Pirates of Penzance playing in July.
Willow Globe Theatre, Powys

Back in the 1990s, Henry Rotich who is from Kenya, did not know much about China, with his best connection to the country being a teakettle made in Shanghai that was owned by his grandmother.
Nevertheless, he applied to study in China when an opportunity presented itself in 1998. Luckily, he got the chance to come to China to pursue his master’s degree in chemistry at the same year. And his main challenge at that time was learning the language. However, he could communicate with people easily by simple Chinese after a month.
“During my travels around China as a student, I found people very friendly and helpful. That is how I came to learn their language fast.”
“Learning language and culture depends on one’s mindset as well as the opportunity to live in an environment where the language is used daily,” Rotich said. He believes that China’s scholarship program for African students to study in China has been instrumental in helping young Africans learn Chinese and immerse (沉浸) themselves in the culture.
To complete his chemistry studies, Rotich spent eight years in China. Asked about the benefits of studying in the country, Rotich, who is married to a Chinese woman, quipped (打趣) that he came back to Kenya with “three degrees” in the same period it would take others to get just two degrees. “The first degree is my wife, the second one is my master’s and finally, my PhD,” he said proudly.
Rotich said different countries and people should concentrate on their cultural similarities. He has noted many similarities between the Chinese and Kenyan cultures, and this has helped him appreciate the Chinese way of life. The similarities include respect for the elderly, families gathering during special festivals, and good neighborliness.
As chairman of the Kenya-China Alumni Association for Kenyan students who studied in China, Rotich praised the role played by Chinese scholarships in promoting cultural exchanges between the two countries.
24. Why did Henry Rotich learn Chinese so fast at the beginning
A. He got married to a Chinese girl.
B. He got lots of help from Chinese people.
C. He was more intelligent than other students.
D. He devoted all his spare time to studying.
25. What can we know about Henry Rotich from the passage
A. He came to China to study Chinese.
B. He bought a teakettle made in Shanghai.
C. He got three degrees when studying in China.
D. He has a good knowledge of Chinese culture.
26. What does Rotich think of China’s scholarship program
A. It contributes to the cultural communication.
B. It increases the cultural similarities.
C. It promotes Kenya’s economic growth.
D. It helps young Kenyans get higher degrees.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Challenges Henry Rotich met in China
B. Cultural cooperation between China and Kenya
C. Henry Rotich’s studying in China — a wise choice
D. Henry Rotich’s working experience in China — a magic story
C
Ponds (池塘) are a rich source of biodiversity, providing natural environments for many rare and endangered species, including plants, insects, birds and bats. Ponds show far greater variation than rivers and streams. Yet, for a century or so, ponds have been ignored by scientists.
Why have we overlooked such a significant part of the natural world A key reason appears to be the cognitive bias(认知偏见) where we assume that if something is small, it can’t be all that important. Rather than study ponds, biologists in the past typically headed for the largest lake or river they could find. Most of us also devalue ponds because we assume they are human-made habitats and don’t realize that these waters have a deeply ancient origin. Ponds have clearly existed on Earth as long as there has been land and water and the geological record shows they have been a long-lasting presence.
Ignoring ponds within science has had a big impact on our ability to protect their wildlife. It has created a world view in which policy-makers can simply ignore the big networks of ponds that make up so much of the global water environment. In Europe, for example, the Water Framework Directive mostly excludes any bodies of water smaller than 50 hectares.
Fortunately, views are changing. Last year, the Ramsar Convention, an international agreement, introduced a resolution on small wetlands, including ponds, giving more recognition to them. And the European Union-funded PONDERFUL project is gathering data on Europe’s ponds.
However, if we want to make use of the biodiversity power that ponds offer, there remains much to do. In a world where fresh water faces big challenges, creating and protecting ponds provides a ray of hope: a piece of natural ecological engineering we can easily achieve to help support biodiversity.
28. What can be learned about ponds from paragraph 1
A. They are difficult to research.
B. They fail to get due attention.
C. They are too small to support wildlife.
D. They have greater importance than rivers.
29. What does the cognitive bias assume
A. Ponds are short-lived. B. Rivers are fully-developed.
C. Small things are unimportant. D. Natural habitats are unnoticed.
30. Why is the Water Framework Directive mentioned in paragraph 3
A. To solve a problem. B. To present a fact.
C. To prove a point. D. To make a comparison.
31. What does the author imply in the last paragraph
A. Exploring ponds has a long way to go.
B. Ecological diversity is easy to realize.
C. Fresh water supply can meet our needs.
D. Building ponds can promote economy.
D
If you’ve ever been pleasant to a rude customer while waiting tables, or smilingly received a truly ugly sweater as a gift, you’ve participated in a display rule. This is hiding a negative emotion usually to promote harmony between two individuals. However, they can have negative consequences for the person hiding a negative emotion or opinion.
As daily interactions become increasingly virtual, display rules are changing. A group of researchers from the University of Tokyo in Japan set out to answer the questions of how emojis (表情符号) are used to reflect emotions in different contexts, if the same display rules apply to emojis, and how they affect a person’s well being.
The study observed 1,289 participants who use Simeji, the most-downloaded emoji keyboard in Japan, and how the emojis were used to either express an emotion or mask it. The participants answered questions about their subjective well being, and rated how often they use emojis. They were also given messages with different social contexts and asked to respond to them as they would normally, and then rated the intensity (强度) of the expression of their emotions.
The study found that texters chose to express more emotions via emoji with people in a private context or with a close friend. The respondents expressed the least amount of emotion with higher-status individuals. The most intense expressions of emotion came with matching emojis, unless the respondents felt the need to mask their true feelings, such as using a smiling emoji to mask sadness. Only when negative feelings were very strongly felt did the respondents use a negative emoji. Additionally, using emojis to express emotions was associated with higher subjective well being compared to masking emotions.
The researchers would like to expand this study with a larger and more varied sample, including more males since the Simeji keyboard is more popular among young women and from different cultural backgrounds.
“First, the highly gender-imbalanced(性别失衡) sample may have led to stronger results. Future research should explore potential gender differences in emoji display rules,” said a researcher. “Second, Japanese culture’s emphasis on interpersonal harmony and concealment (隐瞒) of negative emotions may have influenced the results.”
32. Why do people apply display rules
A. To keep the peace. B. To make more friends.
C. To avoid being hurt. D. To create a good impression.
33. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The research findings. B. The research process.
C. The research subjects. D. The research purpose.
34. What did the study find about the participants’ use of emojis
A. It was influenced by different contexts.
B. It promoted interpersonal relationships.
C. It improved their subjective well being.
D. It was a way of masking their true feelings.
35. Why do the researchers want to expand the study
A. To make it known to more people.
B. To achieve more convincing results.
C. To benefit people from different cultures.
D. To explore gender differences in emoji use.

It is rightly said “Time and Tide wait for none”. But a number of people today have difficulty successfully managing time. ____36____ Now let’s take a look at a list of 4 skills you should master about time management.
Set priorities.
Write out all the tasks you need to get through for the day and then prioritize them in accordance with their level of significance. ____37____ Meanwhile, it also assists to guarantee that the most important things are done on time.
____38____
Certain activities, though seemingly harmless, significantly affect productivity. Instagram and Facebook, for instance, could easily consume hours that are better spent on studying or rest. To combat this, using time management tools that track how much time you spend online highlights areas for improvement.
Do less.
This is a trick from Leo Babauta, who started the blog Zen Habits. In his opinion, doing less doesn’t mean “less is more”. It means “less is better”. ____39____ This is achieved by slowing down and concentrating only on those things. Once you do, make every action count. As a result, you’ll be creating more value instead of just fodder.
Relax at Appropriate Intervals(间隔时间).
Control your performance over time by taking more pauses. According to Nathaniel Kleitman, a sleep scientist, “our brains naturally desire rest after every 90 minutes of hard activity.” Your mind will let you understand that you require a break when you start to feel sleepy, restless, hungry or lose concentration regardless of whether or not you have such a timer set. ____40____
Embrace these strategies, adapt them to your specific needs, and reclaim control over your time management. Your future self will thank you for it!
A. Stay creative.
B. Eliminate Time-wasters.
C. Be aware of what needs to be done.
D. You can not apply that to time management.
E. It may improve the chances of achieving objectives.
F. You realize it’s time to step back when you start feeling like this.
G. This in turn, leads to a decline in production as well as a rise in their anxiety levels.

A lesson from my sister
My elder sister was different. She was socially awkward. She could not look at people in the eye. She would mumble (嘟哝) to herself and repeat the words she had just said. The child psychologist (心理学家)had termed it as “Asperger Syndrome”.
She, however, was academically capable. Therefore, we attended the same primary school. Despite this, I never, ever admitted in public that she was my sister. There was one incident, however, that changed how I viewed my sister. It was the incident that changed me.
Being in primary six, about to graduate, the school had made it a must for everyone to perform. Due to my sister’s inability to work together with others, she had to do it individually.
“I’ll sing,” my sister told my parents confidently. Hearing that, I was completely shocked. How could my sister, who was socially awkward, sing in front of the school I knew so well that if this happened, she would surely embarrass me.
Silently I prayed I would not have to watch my sister disgrace(使丢脸) herself. It is fine. No one knows she is your sister. I remember telling myself these exact words as I sat in the hall, waiting for the performances to start.
The lights dimmed and the curtains parted and my sister slowly appeared on stage. It took about a whole minute for her to speak out her name and class and by that time, whispers were heard in the audience. “Why is she taking so long ” People around me asked. I sat nervously in my seat, wishing I were somewhere else.
注意：1. 所续写短文的总词数应为150左右;
2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。
Finally my sister started to sing. ________________________________________________

Guilt and shame filled my heart as I listened to my sister’s wonderful singing.____________

【34题解析】细节理解题。根据第四段(研究发现，发短信的人选择在私人场合或与亲密朋友通过表情符号表达更多的情感。受访者对地位较高的人表达的情感最少)”可知，参与者使用表情符号受到不同情境的影响。故选A项。
【35题解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段”(首先，高度性别失衡的样本可能导致了更强烈的结果。一位研究者表示，未来的研究应该探讨在表情符号显示规则上潜在的性别差异。“其次，日本文化对人际和谐和隐瞒负面情绪的重视可能影响了结果)” 可知，研究人员想要扩大研究是因为当前研究存在样本性别不平衡、文化影响等问题，可能导致结果不够准确，扩大研究是为了获得更有说服力的结果。故选B项。

(现在让我们来看看关于时间管理你应该掌握的4项技能)”可知，本句承接上文，说明难以成功管理时间所带来的负面影响。故G选项“这反过来又导致了生产的下降以及他们焦虑程度的上升”符合语境；选项中代词“This”指代上文中“have difficulty successfully managing time”。故选G。

【39题解析】根据上文“This is a trick from Leo Babauta, who started the blog Zen Habits. In his opinion, doing less doesn’t mean “less is more”. It means “less is better”.(这是Leo Babauta的一个小技巧，他是Zen Habits博客的创始人。在他看来，做得少并不意味着“少即是多”。意思是“越少越好”)”以及后文(这是通过放慢脚步，只专注于那些事情来实现的。一旦你这样做了，让每一个行动都有意义。因此，你将创造更多的价值，而不仅仅是素材)”可知，本句主要说明后文提到的需要专注的事情有哪些。故C选项“知道需要做什么”符合语境，故选C。
【40题解析】根据上文 (随着时间的推移，通过更多的停顿来控制你的表现。睡眠科学家纳撒尼尔·克莱特曼表示：‘在每90分钟的剧烈运动后，我们的大脑自然会渴望休息。’你的大脑会让你明白，当你开始感到困倦、不安、饥饿或注意力不集中时，你需要休息一下，不管你是否设置了这样的计时器)”可知，本句为本段最后一句，故承接上文说明有了不适的感觉应该适当休息。故F选项“当你开始有这种感觉时，你就会意识到是时候退一步了”符合语境。故选F。

第二节（满分25分）
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，这篇文章主要讲述了作者和姐姐之间的故事。姐姐有一种社交障碍，但在学术上很有能力。有一次在学校演出中，她独自唱歌，让作者震惊地发现她的歌声非常美妙。作者感到内疚和羞愧，意识到自己之前的误解。从那以后，作者决定无条件地爱她并公开承认她是自己的姐姐。
Finally my sister started to sing. Nervous and anxious, I was prepared for a disaster. After a deep breath, she finally opened her mouth, and I was shocked — she sang effortlessly and melodiously! What an amazing voice! The song rang naturally through the hall, beautiful in its power. I listened carefully to the lyrics she had composed all by herself and I found everyone in the hall was attracted by her remarkable performance. I realized at that time what a big mistake I had made. My sister could sing like an angel.
Guilt and shame filled my heart as I listened to my sister’s wonderful singing. It was time for me to change my impression on my sister. She was socially awkward yet so gifted. How could I have doubted my sister’s abilities She taught me a lesson that I should not judge a person from just one’s appearance. Although she knew that I was embarrassed by her and was unwilling to attend her concert, she had never taken it to heart. It was then that I was determined to love her unconditionally and tell everybody that she was my sister.

W: The time is seven thirty and here is radio JPD’s weather and traffic information this Thursday morning. Traveling will be difficult today because of the heavy snow last night. Traffic is moving slowly on the M16 and M48 motorway and the police say the M43 will stay closed for more than an hour, until a quarter to nine. In the city, an accident at the North Street means that it is closed to all cars, and drivers must use New Street or Lake Street. Because of this, some journeys by bus are taking longer. The No. 16 bus to the city center is really late. There are also problems for railway passengers because of thick snow on the tracks. All trains to Oxford are late and there will be no trains to London until lunchtime. Passengers should phone 07223691 for the latest information about trains. This afternoon, it is going to be very windy, and it’ll last until tomorrow morning. So wear some warm clothes if you have to go out! For more weather information, look at our website.
