A few years ago, it seemed like Taylor Swift never went anywhere without a large group of friends. No matter what event she attended, a list squad (小队)--which included famous people like Selena Gomez, Zen d and God Ha did -- would be right by her side.
But now Swift wants fans to know that her friendships weren't as perfect as she tried to make people believe. In fact, she says she was using her friend group to hide her insecurity(不实全) of feeling “'uncool" and “unpopular". Swift says she went out of her way to show off her squad because she didn't have many friends when she was younger --a memory that still bothered her years later. “Never being popular as a kid was always an insecurity for me,” she says.
When she became famous, Swift became obsessed (沉迷) with showing off her popularity. “In my twenties, l found myself surrounded by girls who wanted to be my friends." Swift explains. “So I celebrated my newfound acceptance into a sisterhood." But by constantly putting her friends on display, Swift failed to consider how bad her fans might feel about themselves because they didn’t have a squad like hers. “'I didn't realize that other people might still feel the way I did when I felt so alone," she says.
As she became older and more confident in herself, Swift started focusing on the quality of her friends, not the quantity (数量). She says she finally understands that the size of her group doesn‘t mean how “cool" she is. To her, it's much more important to have a few friends who can be trusted rather than a large group of “fair-weather“ friends.
While Swift still values her friends she has in her life, she no longer feels the pressure to show off them for the sake of impressing others. “For too long, the opinions of strangers affected how l viewed things, But now I learn not to let outside opinions affect my own life choices.”
4. What made Swift show off her list squad
A. The popularity of her friends.
B. Her childhood experience.
C. The support of her fans.
D. Her strong social influence.
5. What does paragraph 4 intend to tell us
A. We should make real friends.
B. It is important to trust our friends
C, Our friends can affect our behavior.
D. There are many ways of making friends.
6. What does the underlined word “sake” probably mean in the last paragraph
A. Request.
B. Advice.
C. Method.
D. Purpose.
7. From which is the text probably taken
A. A scientific report.
C. A travel magazine.
B. A social newspaper.
D. A movie poster.

We can learn to be happy but only get lasting benefits if we keep practicing, a new study has revealed.
The team behind the University of Bristol's Science of Happiness course had already discovered that teaching students the latest scientific studies on happiness markedly improved their well-being. However, their latest study found that these well-being boosts are short-lived unless the evidence-informed habits learned in the course -- such as gratitude, exercise, or run -- are kept up over the long term.
Senior author Professor Bruce Hood said, “It's like going to the gym - we can't expect to do one class and be fit forever, Just as with physical health, we have to continuously work on our mental health；otherwise, the improvements will be temporary.
Launched in 2018, the University of Bristol's Science of Happiness course was the first of its kind in the Uk. It involves no exams or coursework and teaches students what the latest peer-reviewed studies in psychology and neuroscience say really makes us happy. Students who took the course reported a 10% to 15% improvement in well-being. However, only those who continued implementing the course learning maintained that improved well-being when they were surveyed again two years later.
Professor Hood said, “This study shows that just doing a course is just the start, You must commit to using what you learn on a regular basis. Much of what we teach revolves around positive psychological interventions that take your attention from yourself by helping others being with friends, or being grateful. This is the opposite of the current 'self-care’ doctrine (学说), but countless studies have shown that getting out of our own heads helps get us away from negative thoughts, which can be the basis of so many mental health problems.
8.What does the study find about happiness
A. Happiness can be learned, but we have to work at it.
B. Financial success does not produce lasting happiness.
C. Happiness is the ability to make the most of what we have.
D. Trying too hard to find happiness may have the opposite effect.
9. What can we learn from Professor Hood's words
A. Leaming has got to be active and experiential.
B. Mental health is as important as physical health.
C, Maintaining happiness requires continuous effort.
D, Exercise is the best way to keep a healthy lifestyle.
10.What words can best describe the course
B. Pioneering and useful.
A. Long and complex.
D. Interesting and educational.
C. Cheap and professional.
11. How can we improve mental health according to the last paragraph
B. By focusing on ourselves.
A. By interacting with others.
D. By avoiding negative friends
C. By learning a new course.
D
In the coming decade, space agencies and private space companies like SpaceX are planning to build a base on the Moon and Mars. While scientists are already building rockets for the journey, for long-term human settlements on them, astronauts will need fuel to carry out daily tasks. Many have suggested hydrogen (氢). But a group of scientists is working on turning CO2 in the atmosphere into jet fuel. As Mars is rich in CO2 and the lunar surface has a high concentration of CO2, it may be a feasible solution.
For now the team of' scientists at the University of Oxford is focusing on making jet fuel for the aviation (航空) industry, As the aviation industry releases over 900 million tons of CO2 every year to battle climate change, it is necessary to tun the tide, So far aviation scientists have tried to use other energy resources like electricity to fly, But such flights are limited to short distances. For long-distance fights, there is no alternative yet,
The concept of turning CO2 into jet fuel is not new, Previously, other similar methods had to rely on expensive catalysts (催化剂) like cobalt to speed up the chemical reaction. But what Oxfordscientists suggest is adding a cheap iron-based catalyst and hydrogen to turn CO2 into liquid fuel. As the process would not require using fossil fuel, it will make the industry carbon neutral (碳中和的)
The scientists tested the new catalyst in a lab at 300'C and at 10 times the air pressure at sea level. The entire process took 20 hours and turned 38 percent of CO2 into new chemicals. About 48percent of the chemicals were jet fuel hydrocarbon and the rest were other by-products that are used in the production of plastic.
Professor Peter Edwards, a lead scientist in the project, said the new method could be improved in two to three years to produce jet fuel in large quantities. “This is a really exciting, potentially revolutionary advance. Our vision is that the world can see that CO2 collected can be used as an energy carrier to enable sustainable aviation ”
12. Which word can best explain “feasible” underlined in paragraph 1
A. Unique.
B. Practical.
C. Time-tested.
D. Quick
13. What problem does the aviation industry face
A. It is suffering from a serious fuel shortage.
B. The traditional jet fuel is much too expensive,
C. Climate change partly disturbs long-distance flights.
D. Its alternative energy resources are not powerful enough.
14. What do we know about the Oxford scientists’ method of fuel-making
A. It is green and cost-saving.
B. It is complex and time-consuming
C. It runs tests in natural environment.
D. It starts with immediate chemical reaction.
15. What's the purpose of the author
A. To attract people to explore the space.
B. To inform us of a breakthrough in fuel research.
C. To warn us the dangers of climate change.
D. To encourage us to work in the aviation industry

For long-distance fights, there is no alternative yet,
The concept of turning CO2 into jet fuel is not new, Previously, other similar methods had to rely on expensive catalysts (催化剂) like cobalt to speed up the chemical reaction. But what Oxfordscientists suggest is adding a cheap iron-based catalyst and hydrogen to turn CO2 into liquid fuel. As the process would not require using fossil fuel, it will make the industry carbon neutral (碳中和的)
The scientists tested the new catalyst in a lab at 300'C and at 10 times the air pressure at sea level. The entire process took 20 hours and turned 38 percent of CO2 into new chemicals. About 48percent of the chemicals were jet fuel hydrocarbon and the rest were other by-products that are used in the production of plastic.
Professor Peter Edwards, a lead scientist in the project, said the new method could be improved in two to three years to produce jet fuel in large quantities. “This is a really exciting, potentially revolutionary advance. Our vision is that the world can see that CO2 collected can be used as an energy carrier to enable sustainable aviation ”

书面表达
Dear Eric,
I'm Li Hua, chairman of the Student Union in our school. I'm writing to invite you to join our school basketball team and play in the coming basketball match.
The match will be held at 4 p.m. next Sunday in our school stadium. We will play against a visiting team from another school. As you know, our basketball team is short of talented players, especially in the position of point guard, which requires good ball handling skills and a good sense of teamwork. Knowing that you are an excellent basketball player and skilled at playing point guard, I believe you are the right person we are looking for.
Your participation would undoubtedly strengthen our team and increase our chances of winning. We really hope you can accept our invitation. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
