Betty is not traditional American beauty. She is unfashionable, has thick red glasses, untidy hair and large metal braces (牙套) on her teeth. But this hasn’t stopped her from becoming one of American’s favorite TV characters. So how did she manage to do it
The answer is that charm can be more attractive than beauty. Betty is the main character in a TV show Ugly Betty. The show is about her life as an office worker at a fashion magazine in New York.
The TV show has just started. Betty has many exciting experiences and romantic stories. Betty is often looked down on and laughed at by the people around. But she manages to do better than others with her hard work, charm and wisdom. The show tells us about how a girl goes from an ugly young duck into a beautiful swan.
Though you may know the ending of the show from the beginning and the story is familiar to many of us, it has still been a big success in the USA. It has attracted a large number of viewers and won two Golden Globes awards, one of the highest honors for a television program in the USA.“ I think you can see a bit of Betty in all of us, and I mean men as well, because it’s about the underdog (弱者)”,says Ashley Jensen, who plays one of the characters on the show.
The program is so popular because of the performance of the 23-year-old actress America Ferrera who plays the role of Betty. She brings the character alive on screen.
61. Betty is popular because of ____.
A. her clothes B. her charm C. her personality D. her appearance
62. In Paragraph 4, the underlined word “it” refers to (指的是) ____.
A. the beginning B. the ending C. the story D. the show

C. Betty is an American favorite TV character.

C
There are only 24 hours in a day, and usually about a third of that is spent sleeping. So is it possible to make use of this time and learn a new skill or even a language In other words,is sleep learning possible
Many studies have found that a basic form of learning called conditioning can happen during sleep. In a 2012 study published in the magazine Nature Neuroscience, for example, Israeli researchers found that people can learn to connect sounds with smells during sleep. The scientists played a tone to sleeping study participants(参与者) while putting some rotten(腐烂的)fish beside their beds. Once awake,when hearing the tone,the people held their breath in anticipation(预判) of a bad smell.
"This was a clear finding showing participants formed new memories during sleep, " said Andrillon, a scientist in this field.
Although the new memory was implicit (暗示性的), it could influence how people behave. Researchers found in a 2014 study published in the Journal of Neuroscience, smokers used fewer cigarettes after spending a night in a room full of cigarette(香烟) smell mixed with rotten eggs or fish,
Andrillon and his team members have found that learning in sleep can also go beyond simple conditioning. In their 2017 study published in Nature Communications, participants were able to pick out sound features that they had heard during sleep.
Learning abilities in sleep may spread to learning of words. In a study published in Current Biology, researchers played pairs of made - up words and their supposed meanings like "guga" means elephant to sleep participants. After this, when awake. the participants did better in picking the right translation of made - up words in a multi – choice(多选) test.
So far, research suggests it may be possible to learn about the tone and pronunciation of a language or even the meaning of words while sleeping. although it is to a weaker level than what we do during the day without noticing.
66. What is the main purpose of the text
A. To show that sleep learning is possible. B. To study how to make use of sleep learning.
C. To report some famous research findings. D. To prove sleep learning is implicit and weak.
67. What does the phrase ''new memories'' in the third paragraph refer to(指的是)
A. Connection between participants and scientists. B. Connection between sounds and smells.
C. The tone's influence on the rotten fish. D. The rotten eggs' influence on cigarettes.
68. What is the main idea of the last two paragraphs
A. Sleep can do good to learning. B. Language learning can happen in sleep.
C. People learn in sleep in a different language. D. Sleep learning is better than daytime learning.

In China, Double Eleven Shopping Day comes every year. And there is a similar day in the United States—Black Friday. It has been considered as the beginning of the holiday shopping season. Although it’s not an official holiday, millions of workers have the day off, and many people buy things on that day. A similar day in Canada and Great Britain is called “Boxing Day”.
Black Friday has become somewhat of a marketing sensation in recent years. Since 2005, it has been the busiest shopping day of the year. To lure shoppers, retailers (零售商) usually open their doors as early as 4 a.m. and offer special sales and promotions to the shoppers that arrive early.
But why is it called Black Friday Historians(历史学家) believe the name started in Philadelphia in the mid-1960s. Bus drivers and police used “Black Friday” to describe the heavy traffic that would block city streets because of too many shoppers there the day after Thanksgiving.
Businesses, however, didn’t like the bad influence about the “Black Friday” name. In the early 1980s, a more positive explanation(建设性的解释) of the name began to spread. According to this explanation, Black Friday is the day when retailers finally begin to turn a profit(获利) for the year. In accounting terms, operating at a loss is called being “in the red” because accountants traditionally used red ink to show negative amounts(亏本账目). Positive amounts (盈利账目)were usually shown in black ink. Thus, being “in the black” is a good thing because it means stores are operating at a profit(盈利经营).
Recently, for those who are too busy to shop on Black Friday or who just don’t want to fight the crowds, the Monday following Black Friday has become known as Cyber Monday (网络星期一) for the many online deals(交易).
69. On Black Friday, the Americans_________.
A. are usually busy doing shopping B. look exactly like the Canadians
C. don’t have to go to work as usual D. stay at home and relax themselves
70. The underlined word “lure” (in Paragraph 2) probably means_________.
A. protect B. attract C. attack D. remind
71. How do the retailers understand Black Friday now _________.
A. It is totally different from Boxing Day B. They usually lose some money on the day
C. It never keeps them very busy D. It probably brings them more money
72.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage _________.
A. In accounting terms, operating at a profit is called being “in the red”
B. People used “Black Friday” to describe the heavy traffic in the mid-1960s
C. On Cyber Monday , there are many deals on the Internet
D.On Black Friday, shoppers that arrive early can get special sales and promotions
73. The writer writes this passage in order to_________.
A. introduce the development of Cyber Monday B. tell the difference between red and black
C. introduce Black Friday to the readers D. explain the meaning of Boxing Day

Paper is one of our oldest, simplest and most important inventions. It is the pride of us Chinese, but it also presents a danger to the world.
First, the making of paper requires the loss of many millions of trees each year. According to The World Counts, between 2001 and 2019, the world lost a total of 386 million hectares of forest. Of the trees that were cut down, 42 percent went to paper production. That represents a great part of the world's forests. And worldwide use of paper is expected to double in the next 40 years. Clearly, the planet cannot keep such a high rate of forest loss.
The second great problem with paper is that when the paper is used, it is useless. A great deal of wastepaper ends up in rubbish and even landfills (废物填埋场),where it can produce harmful gases. Paper in landfills causes the release (释放) of methane, a gas that is an important factor (因素) in climate (气候) change all around the world.
One simple way to help out can greatly reduce both of these problems: paper recycling. Instead of cutting down trees, recycle used paper to meet the need of paper-making. Effective recycling requires an effort from everyone all over the world. The way to begin is with education and understanding. Once enough people realize the need for recycling, more effective recycling systems can be put into use.
The need is real. The loss of tees influences everybody on earth. Everyone should do their part to recycle paper and encourage government and industry to do the same. The world will be a better place for it!
