Shayden Walker, from Amarillo, Texas, went to his neighbour’s house looking for children his age. He stopped by and talked to his neighbour through the family’s front door security camera. His neighbour, Brennan Ray, responded and told him there were some kids nearby. But that wouldn’t do for Shayden. “They’re not my friends anymore because they’re bullies (仗势欺人者),” the boy said. The two carried on a short conversation about whether Ray had kids of his own Shayden could play with. Ray’s daughter is just a baby though, he told the boy.

When he had these meltdowns, people were like “We don’t want our kids to hang out with your kid”.
After his recent visit to the Rays’ house and hearing from so many kind people, he said he feels “pretty good”. He has made friends all over the world, including from Hawaii, China, Australia and England. Ray and his wife also started a GoFundMe. The page raised over $37,000 for Shayden to go towards whatever he wants, including a gaming setup, school clothes and amusement park (游乐园) tickets. Shayden’s mum said he wants to donate some of the money to some charities.

Are you interested in food, United States history, and the English language If so, American cookbooks provide wide information in all three subjects. The first, published in1796, started a market that continues in the 21st century with online publications of such works. And, the literature offers more than just recipes (食谱).
Amy Bentley is a food historian at New York University. She said that cookbooks from the 1800s were use a as lifestyle and household guides. They include food recipes, but they were not central to the books back then. “So, there re some recipes for food, but it could be recipes for a cleaning solvent (溶剂) or what to do when your child has been poisoned and how to clean,” Bentley said.
American Cookery by Amelia Simmons is the first cookbook published in the United States. Simmons wrote that her goal with the book was to improve the new generation of women in the US. And after the Civil War, cookbooks became more manifold. Writers started exploring local foods and customs in their work.
Some communities would put together a group cookbook to raise money. These cookbooks provide a ook into what the American middle class was eating throughout the years. Such works serve as a record of the traditions and interests of different neighbourhoods and groups.
Throughout the years cookbooks have signified humanity’s growth in knowledge, trends (趋势) and inventions. During the last part of the 19th century, for example, many recipes were informed by the dangers of food containing bacteria (细菌). Then, in the 1930s, refrigerators (冰箱) became common objects in American homes. But cookbooks are not complete reflections of American life. Publishing companies mostly control cookbook content. And, their main goal is to make money from book sales.
In the 21st century, with the growth of social media and food websites, publishing companies have less control. These new ways to share recipes have led to more open discussions about food and cooking. This gives the public more choices and power.
28．What can you find in the cookbooks from the 1800s
A．Travel guides. B．Popular clothes.
C．Cleaning methods. D．Historical events.
29．What does the underlined word “manifold” mean in Paragraph 3
A．Various. B．Famous. C．Challenging. D．Serious.
30．What is the author’s purpose in mentioning refrigerators
A．To tell the importance of refrigerators.
B．To show the development of technology.
C．To provide an example of social problems
D．To prove cookbooks reflect the progress of human life.
31．From which part of a magazine is the text probably taken
A．Language. B．History. C．Culture. D．Education.
From checking social media every minute to being lost in computer games, we tend to overuse technology. “For many people, a moment without your phone or laptop in sight can feel like a lifetime,” the Daily Mail commented.
A computer model called Mindy may make many people to think twice. A team from the US-based company Toll Free Forwarding built a 3-D model to uncover the harmful effects technology can have on human bodies in less than 800 years.
“Spending hours looking down at your phone harms your neck and throws your spine (脊椎) off balance,” explained Caleb Backe, a health and wellness expert in the US. Then, the muscles in our neck need to spend extra effort to support the head, making our back bent (驼背) and neck wide. “The way we hold our phones can cause stress in certain points of contact — causing text claw (手机手),” Nikola Djordjevic, a practicing physician in Serbia, told the team. It affects the elbows too, causing pain in the arm. That’s why Mindy has a 90-degree elbow, and her hands look like she’s always holding a mobile phone.
Some people also commented that human evolution (进化) may not work this way. They believe that only features with actual benefits would be kept throughout the years. For example, features that can increase the rate of survival, instead of the negative influence of technology. However, current human lifestyles still raise concerns. A model called Emma was built by researchers in the UK in 2019 to show how the way people work at their desks could change them in 20 years.
The research team built Emma based on the health issues mentioned by over 3,000 workers in France, Germany and the UK. Emma’s back stays bent, and her legs are swollen (肿胀的) due to the time people spend in front of computers. With little time spent outdoors and in the sun, her skin is gray, too.
32．What’s the function of Paragraph 1
A．To start a debate. B．To introduce the topic.
C．To give suggestions. D．To add background information.
33．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A．The advanced design of Mindy.
B．The influence of the computer model.
C．The n me people spend on the mobile phones.
D．The bad effects of mobile phones on our bodies.
34．What does Emma look like
A．Unhealthy. B．Tall. C．Thin. D．Beautiful.
35．What can be a suitable title for the text
A．Two Models Serve As Human Helpers
B．More Attention Shall Be Paid to Our Necks
C．Technology Might Change Our Body Shape
D．People Should Stay Away from Computer Games

Sugar painting can be found in various areas of China, but is 57 (typical) found around the Sichuan Province of southwestern China along the streets or in the parks. Most artists have a wheel for people to spin, 58 determines the animal he will draw based on where the arrow lands.
Painting on a canvas (画布) is very 59 (difference) from painting with sugar, so when I first saw sugar painting in action, I was amazed 60 the precision and detail of each painting. Although there are varying techniques to this craft, most artists use a long spoon to drizzle (淋) hot sugar onto a flat slab (厚板) as an outline of a figure. Then, they use a small spoon to drizzle sugar in order to produce beautiful details. A wooden stick is used 61 (hold) the figure, fresh and ready to serve to an excited child.

It was a hot day in the middle of July. I decided to walk to the neighbourhood store where it sold my favourite thing, ice cream. I pulled a friend towards the ice cream store, almost passing out from the burning sun on the way.
As we walked on, my friend kept saying that it was too hot. She thought that she was stupid to decide to come with me to buy ice cream. I felt sorry and tried to encourage her. “We’re almost there. Just think of the cool and sweet taste of ice cream in your mouth. It’ll be worth the walk,” I told her. But I had to admit that the store was quite far from our houses. During the journey, my mouth began to become dry and I wanted to drink.
When we were about a block away from the store, I noticed an old lady who was walking in our direction. She was about 70 years old. She had a big back problem, so she was unable to keep her back straight. She was struggling, pushing a shopping cart (购物车) full of things like the soap, bread and water. With each step towards her, we began to see her appearance more clearly. It appeared that she was often unhappy and easy to get angry.
I looked at my friend to see if she had noticed her. I could see that she had and that she disliked the old lady due to the lady’s appearance. As we approached the lady pushing the shopping cart, my friend directed me away from the old lady and the cart.
I began to observe other passers-by. They were also trying to avoid her. Suddenly I heard a loud sound behind me. I quickly turned around to see what it was. I found the lady’s cart had been knocked over by something on the ground.

67．范文
Things in the shopping cart like the soap all dropped on the ground. I watched in shock as the lady bent down slowly and tried hard to collect her things. I turned to my friend and asked, “Shall we go and help her ” “It is not we who knocked her shopping cart over,” my friend said impatiently, walking ahead. I stood there for a moment, suddenly feeling sorry for this pitiful lady. “I'll help her,” I said with determination.
Then we quickly walked towards the lady. “Let me help you,” I said as I helped her get the cart up. The lady looked up and said tearfully, “Thank you!” Then I helped her put things back into her cart. To my surprise, some passers-by joined me, including my friend. With everything put into her cart, my friend and I helped push it to her house. If it were not for the incident, we would have had delicious ice cream to eat, but we didn't feel regretful, for what we did was meaningful.
