“They’ll understand when they’re older,” Hearing this, as a parent, you may feel better. But the fact is that even when kids become adults, it doesn’t mean they’ll agree with your decisions.
Recently, I have had lots of conversations with my 19-year-old daughter about decisions I made in her childhood. She says she disagrees with some of them and some have even caused harm to her. That hurts. I think I must have failed as a parent.
It turns out that my daughter’s questioning is very normal. It happens to almost every teenager when they are in their late teens.
“In their late teens, teenagers start to find out who they are and what they stand for (代表),” says Mary Fleming, a college professor. “The search for identity (身份) is not always smooth.” The first task for teenagers is to dismantle the old life structure and to build a new one in its place. In other words, parents created that old life structure of childhood, so they are often at the heart of that dismantling process.
Hearing critical (批评的) words is hard. But if your teenager comes to you wanting to talk about it, pay attention to him or her. For both of you, it’s the beginning of understanding each other. And as they grow up, teenagers will realize they can’t live their lives over again, and neither can their parents. They will understand that their parents did the best they could with what they knew at the time.
1．Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph
A．Kids may disagree with their parents when they grow up.
B．Adults should let kids make their own decisions.
C．Kids need to talk with their parents more often.
D．Parents often make right decisions for their kids.
2．How does the writer feel when hearing her daughter’s words at first
A．Confident. B．Surprised. C．Comfortable. D．Sad.
3．What does the underlined word “dismantle” probably mean in Paragraph 4
A．To learn something. B．To break something.
C．To organize something. D．To forget something.
4．What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A．Why it’s difficult to hear critical words.
B．How to deal with teenagers’ critical words.
C．Why teenagers should talk with their parents.
D．How to let teenagers understand their parents.
The oldest child syndrome (综合征), sometimes called the firstborn syndrome, is about how being the first child in a family can form a person’s character. Birth order has long been thought of as a main reason that influences (影响) how children grow and change.
Being the first child can sometimes be hard. “The oldest child syndrome is when the first child feels they must do well and be a good example for other children in the family,” says Nicholette Leanza, a therapist (治疗专家).
According to Brandy Smith, a psychologist, some common behaviors for the first child include:
●Having a strong sense of responsibility
● Feeling they must meet people’s expectations, mainly their parents’ expectations
● Often drawn to leadership-type roles
● Usually described as someone who follows rules and acts nicely
●Being a hard-working person who always tries his best to succeed
There are also some advantages of being the oldest child in the family. Studies have shown that firstborn children have an advantage when it comes to learning things around the age of four. Some studies show that firstborn children also have a small advantage when it comes to early reading and writing skills.
“Being the oldest child can also influence how a child grows in feelings and their understanding of who they are,” Leanza says. “For example, they might grow up quicker because they have more jobs to do at home or they might act more like parents because they have to look after their younger brothers and sisters.”
“These can make it hard for the oldest child to find their identity (身份) outside of their role in their family,” Leanza explains. “It’s important for kids to learn to be themselves. And they shouldn’t just see themselves as part of the family.”
5．What is the “oldest child syndrome” mainly about
A．How firstborn children are different from others.
B．Why firstborn children have more responsibility.
C．Why firstborn children are usually more successful.
D．How a person’s character is shaped by being the oldest child.
6．According to Brandy Smith, which sentence can usually describe the oldest children
A．They usually like to break rules.
B．They are trying to please their parents.
C．They have a hard time making decisions.
D．They pay attention to their personal interests.
7．What does the passage say about the advantages of being the oldest child
A．They are better at sports. B．They get better grades in school.
C．They are more popular at school. D．They learn things better at an early age
8．Why does Leanza say the oldest child might have trouble finding their identity
A．Because they are always told what to do.
B．Because they are always trying to be perfect.
C．Because they have many home responsibilities.
D．Because they are often compared to their brothers and sisters
9．What’s the best title of the passage
A．Tips for firstborn children B．Being the oldest: good and bad
C．The firstborn child’s advantages D．Growing up fast: the firstborn child’s journey
Many people think that children in other countries have a lot of free time. But a new research shows they are wrong. The research says children in England have little free time. Many children in England are busy. They have no free time to “just be children”. They have to do their homework and go to all kinds of after-school clubs and classes.
The research also says that children are under great pressure from schools and parents. Children in England must work hard at school. They have to go to many clubs and classes after school. They can’t get home until very late. After dinner, they have to do their homework. Some children usually spend over two hours in front of computers doing their homework.
Some teachers and parents think children should have more free time, so that they can do something they like. “Learning is not just in classroom. If children are interested in something, they can learn a lot from it,” a parent says. “So free time is also important to children.”
10．The research shows that children ______.
A．are very busy B．have a lot of free time C．like after-school clubs and classes
11．Children in England ______ after school.
A．go home at once B．play sports C．go to after-school clubs and classes
12．The underlined word “pressure” means “ ______” in Chinese.

A．about two hours B．more than two hours C．less than two hours
14．Some parents hope that ______.
A．children should have more free time

C．children should do their homework
As a kid, you didn’t have a say in everything; your parents made decisions about everything from the food you ate in the morning to the clothes you wore at weekends. And it’s a good thing, too--kids need this kind of protection.
But finally, kids grow up and become teens (青少年). And part of being a teen is developing your own mind. But as you change and grow into this new person and make your own decisions, your parents have a difficult time to adjusting. In most families, this kind of adjusting can cause a lot of fighting between teens and parents. And problems like what kind of friends you can have or your idea of joining a party can cause bigger fights, because your parents still always want to protect you and keep you safe, no matter how old you are. It can take several years for parents and teens to adjust to their new roles (角色), though. During this time, try your best to communicate with your parents. Sometimes this can feel impossible—like they just don’t see your opinion and never will. But talking and expressing your opinions can help you get more respect (尊重) from your parents.
Keep in mind, too, that your parents were teens once and they have experienced what you’re going through.
15．Parents make decisions about everything so that ________.
A．they can protect their kids B．they can get on well with kids
C．kids can develop their mind D．kids can grow up more quickly
16．The underlined word “adjusting” probably means ________ in Chinese.
A．回忆 B．比赛 C．掩饰 D．适应

18．The purpose of the last paragraph is to ________.
A．ask parents to help kids B．show parents’ special experiences
C．tell kids to understand parents D．introduce different kinds of parents to us
On weekends and holidays, Chinese teenagers usually learn things like painting or playing the piano, while kids in the US usually play sports.
According to Time for Kids, more US teenagers have joined sports clubs in recent years. Many families spend much money on their children’s sports.
Alex Stearns is an eighth-grader at a middle school. The 16-year-old boy has been playing baseball since he was 5. He plays it every other day. He said that his family spends over $1,200 on his equipment (设备) and $300 on training each year.
Tristan Silveira, 16, from California, also plays baseball. He pays around $50 for every lesson he takes. “My mom drives me to every practice, every game,” he said.
Playing sports can bring many benefits (益处). Teenagers can take part in competitions. The top players in these competitions usually get full athletic scholarships (奖学金) for college. Brigid Selfors, 17, a runner at Mercy High School, has got a full scholarship to Tulane University. Selfors runs three seasons a year. She has won the competitions many times.
However, there are bad things about playing sports. Studies show that learning one sport too early increases the risk of getting hurt and depression (抑郁症). Poor families can’t afford to pay the cost, Time for Kids reported.
19．On weekends, American kids usually ________.
A．play sports B．stay at home C．learn to paint D．play the piano
20．How long has Alex Stearns played baseball

23．What’s the best title for the passage
A．US Kids Love Sports B．Sports Bring Friends
C．Chinese Kids Like Study D．Sports Have Some Risks
In many countries, children with a talent for sports are discovered early and encouraged to achieve athletic (体育运动的) greatness by training for hours every day. While some people see this as a good way to improve children’s health, others argue that too much training can be harmful.
People who are against training children for so long say that there are many bad sides. Here are some of their arguments:
●The long hours spent on training can distance (疏远) the child from his or her family.
●Athletes who spend too much time training miss out on education. They may not be prepared for other activities, such as going to college and having a non-athletic job.
●Parents may also become too pushy and end up caring more about athletic achievements than the child.
Dr. Christine Carr, a psychologist, suggests that parents should take some important steps to help their kids get the most out of sports. Carr says that learning life lessons should be taken seriously. Self-discipline (自律能力) and learning to deal with failure are some of the important life skills kids should learn from sports.
Other experts point to the importance of letting children make their own decisions. Top athlete Michael Phelps said that he thanked his parents for letting him decide how much he wanted to train. In fact, according to Phelps’ mother, he had trouble paying attention in the classroom until he found a sport that he was interested in. By allowing Phelps to decide what to do, his mother also saw him improve as a student.
Another thing that many parents and doctors agree on is the importance of developing a close relationship with the family. Dr. Carr suggests eating dinner together. He says it is a simple way to remind children that support can always be found at home.
Raising an athlete is not easy. By balancing life and training, parents can help their children become winners in both sports and life.

An 8-year-old boy I know is small for his age, shorter and slighter than his friends, even smaller than his 5-year-old sister. Worried about the increasing use and possible risks of growth hormone (生长激素), I asked his mother if she’d considered treating him with it. She replied, “Not really. He’s built like his father, who was short and thin as a boy and didn’t grow suddenly until college.”
His father, at 41, is now 6 feet tall, though still very thin. He recalled being a reasonably athletic child but without the physical power of his friends, making up for what he lacked in size with speed and quickness. “I enjoyed competitive sports and worked on skills others didn’t have,” he told me, and said, “I encourage my son to recognize and make use of the skills he has.”
If only every parent with a short but healthy child dealt with the matter as reasonably. Experts guess that 60% to 80% of children who are short for their age do not have a growth hormone deficiency (缺乏) or other medical condition that limits growth. But knowing there’s a treatment available to increase height, some parents look for a medical solution for a noticed problem, even when there is no medical problem. They should also know, however, that new research has connected growth hormone treatment to serious unpleasant health effects years later.
Dr. Adda Grimberg, a doctor at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, recalled that “Twenty years ago, families were focused on health. They came in with a child who was not growing right and wanted to know if there was an underlying disease. Now, more and more, they’re focused on height. They want growth hormone, looking for a specific height. But this is not like online shopping; you can’t just place an order and make a child the height you want.”
In 2003, the Food and Drug Administration agreed the use of recombinant (重组的) human growth hormone for the condition known as “idiopathic short stature”, or short build of unknown cause, which is not a disease. But it has caused a growing number of parents to consider using the hormone to increase the height of their children.
The resulting rush to treatment shows worries about a widespread social bias against shortness, rather than a true medical need. Experts have noted that the practice supports the belief that being short is unacceptable, leading to an increasing need for treatment. It is far better, Dr. Grimberg suggested, to help a short child develop problem-solving ability than to buy inches through medicine.
29．As for the parents’ attitude to their 8-year-old boy’s shortness, the writer is ________.
A．worried B．confident C．critical D．supportive
30．How do many parents today treat their children’s shortness
A．They are worried about their children’s health.
B．They try hard to find out the cause.
C．They are eager to get the expected result.
D．They help develop their children’s problem-solving ability.
31．What can we learn about the growth hormone treatment
A．It may increase height bias. B．It might be highly recommended.
C．It is aimed at certain diseases. D．It is pushed by a medical need.
32．Which would be the best title for this passage
A．Value the Effects of Growth Hormone
B．Weigh the Use of Growth Hormone
C．Shower the Short with Growth Hormone
D．Find Replacement for Growth Hormone
It might be fun to use your smartphone, but be careful. Too much screen time may be harmful to your health.
First, it is bad for your eyes. A researcher called Sarah Hinkley says the problem comes from the blue light that the screen gives out. Looking at a smartphone for a long time can cause eye strain (劳损), headaches and dry eyes. So it is a good idea to take a break every 15 minutes when you are working at a computer or using a smartphone.
Second, screen use can do harm to children’s brains. A new study shows that using screens too much can affect (影响) how children’s brains grow. If children use screens for more than one hour a day, they might have lower levels of white matter in their brains. White matter is a key to the development of language and reading skills. So it is wise to cut down the time of children using all kinds of screens.
Third, using screens too much will affect your sleep. According to a study, about 95% of people between the ages of 13 and 64 use electronics before bed, especially the young people under 20. Doctors say that the light from those electronics at night may make you excited before you go to bed. Then it’s hard for you to get enough sleep. So you’d better turn off smartphones, TVs, and all other screens an hour before your bedtime.
To keep healthy, doctors and researchers strongly advise that you shouldn’t use screens for long hours.
33．The blue light from your screens can cause ________.
①eye strain ②headaches ③dry eyes
A．① B．②③ C．①③ D．①②③
34．According to the passage, you can’t sleep well because you ________.
A．take a break every 15 minutes B．have lower levels of white matter
C．use screens too much before bed D．are the people from 13 to 64
35．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage
A．Using smartphones for long hours does harm to your eyes.
B．A lot of screen time affects children’s brain growth.
C．The light from electronics at night may make you excited.
D．People of all ages mustn’t use electronics.
36．What is the main idea of the passage
A．The ways to keep healthy. B．The harm of using screens too much.
C．The ways to use screens. D．The advantages of using screens.
请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容，选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余项。
Adolescence (青春期) is a difficult time for teenagers. It takes place when you’re aged between thirteen and nineteen. 37 For example, you used to be happy to be with your parents, but now you need your own space. In the past, your parents made most decisions for you, but now you want to decide things by yourself.
In fact, these changes are perfectly normal. But it’s important to remember that they’ll influence your relationship with your parents. 38
First, let your parents know you love them all the time. 39 They may not say so, but they’ll probably feel a sense of loss.
Secondly, follow your family rules. You may feel these are unnecessary, but your parents’ main worry is just to keep you safe. 40 It may feel like trouble to always remember to phone them and let them know where you are, but make the effort anyway.
Finally, it’s all about communication! 41 Tell them what you did today and let them know where you are going. Besides, ask for advice if you need. All in all, the more you communicate with them, the more they’ll trust you.
A．Keep talking to your parents.
B．Follow your parents’ suggestions.
C．So try your best to follow the rules and stick to them.
D．As your body changes, you also begin to think and feel differently.
E．In their eyes, they have forever lost the little child you used to be.
F．Then how can you make sure that you get on well with your parents
Are you allowed to climb trees or go camping by the river Most of the students reply with “No”. It’s not surprising at all. Although research shows how good it is for children to play outside, they still spend more time staying indoors. In fact, outdoor play has a positive (积极的) influence on children’s development.
Over the last fifteen years, schools have started to realize the importance of outdoor time. It leads to the development of many programs that take learning outside the classroom. One of these programs is Forest School which has increased in popularity over recent years.
Forest School is an outdoor learning program that pays much attention to outdoor play in wooded spaces. In the early 1990s, a group of English educators went on a trip to Denmark. They noticed that open-air living was helpful for students. Upon their return from Denmark, they developed their first Forest School. Today the Forest School Association (协会) has more than 1,500 members.
How does outdoor play stimulate learning In Forest School, children are provided with chances to explore the natural environment and experience risks and challenges. Recent research shows that some changes happen to children. They are able to develop skills they have learned at school in daily life. They work more closely with their classmates. They are more physically active. And they know how to move safely in the wild.
The World Health Organization has advised that children should have more chances to play in nature to grow up healthily. Forest School will help them fall in love with the great outdoors. It is also helpful for them to develop skills and creative thinking. All make preparations for later life!

C．How to Develop Creative Thinking D．The Benefits of Forest School
Celebrities (名人) are everywhere nowadays: on TV, in magazines, online. People think and talk about them a lot. Is this harmless fun or is it bad for us How many people are truly crazy about modern idols (偶像) And on the other side of the coin, is being famous harmful to the celebrities
Studies suggest that most of the teenagers do not really idolize celebrities. Researchers have found three kinds of fans. About 15% of young people have a social interest. They love chatting about their favorite celebrities with friends and this does not appear to do any harm.
Another 5% feel that they have a strong personal relationship with a celebrity. Sometimes they see them as their soul-mates (心灵伴侣) and find that they are often thinking about them, even when they don’t want to. These people are easy to feel depressed. If girls in this group idolize a woman star with a body they consider to be perfect, they are more likely to be unhappy with their own bodies.
That leaves 2% of young people with an unreasonable interest. They might spend several thousand pounds on a paper plate the celebrity had used, or they would do something lawbreaking. These people are in most danger of being seriously upset.
What about the celebrities themselves Some researchers in the USA did a study to find out the effect of being famous on these people. The study showed celebrities showed off too much and they were very narcissistic (自恋的). The researchers looked at 200 celebrities, 200 young adults with high education, who were a group known for being narcissistic, and some general population. As the researchers expected, the celebrities were much more narcissistic than the people with high education and both of these two groups were a lot more narcissistic than the general population.
Four kinds of celebrities were included in the study. The most narcissistic were the ones who had become famous through reality TV shows. Next came comedians (喜剧演员), and then actors. The least narcissistic were musicians. One interesting result was that there was no connection between narcissism and the length of time the celebrity had been famous.
So, what can we learn from this Most people who are very successful or famous are usually self-centered and are likely to act only for their own benefits. As we can see from celebrity magazines, they also often feel lonely and even hopeless. They make harmful role models.
47．The underlined word “depressed” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.
A．sad B．afraid C．pleased D．hopeful
48．What can we learn from the passage
A．Most fans of celebrities want to become famous.
B．Talking about celebrities does harm to teenagers.
C．Narcissism increases with the length of time of being famous.
D．Only a small group of teenagers are crazy about celebrities.
49．What’s the purpose of writing this passage
A．To make people understand celebrities better.
B．To show how much teenagers idolize celebrities.
C．To compare different groups of people with celebrities.
D．To discourage teenagers from taking celebrities as idols.
Bullying (霸凌)
Bullying is a serious problem at school. It makes students feel lonely, unhappy and afraid. It makes them feel like there must be something wrong with them. It even makes some kids not want to go to school or play outside. In other words, it’s very important not to let bullying ruin (毁坏) your life!
Okay, so there you are, and someone is bullying you. What do you do “in the moment”
●Ignore (忽略) the bully (霸凌者). Don’t even look at him. Walk right past him if you can.
●Don’t cry or get angry. Even if you are feeling really hurt, don’t let it show. That’s the bully’s goal. You can talk about or write down what happens later.
●Turn and walk away, or run if you have to. Go to a place where an adult is.
●Remember that you are not the one with the problem. It’s the bully who has the problem.
●If you’re being called names (咒骂) or teased (戏弄), imagine that you’re inside a huge fish tank (鱼缸) filled with white fog. Nothing touches you. Think of the worst things that a bully can say to you, and then let the fog eat them up.
●If you are being bullied again and again, there’s one “Most Important Thing” you should do: Talk to an adult. Start with your parents. If the bullying happens at school, make sure your parents discuss it with school leaders, not with the parents of the bully. Make it clear to the adult that you are really upset by what’s going on.

Do you know growing pains (疼痛) Growing pains aren’t a disease. Sometimes you don’t have to go to a doctor. Usually children can get them between the ages of 3 and 5 or 8 and 12. When children are over fifteen, most of them don’t get growing pains. Children often get growing pains in their legs. Growing pains often start before bedtime and sometimes in the middle of the night. But they go away by the morning. Doctors don’t know why. They think when children run, climb or jump a lot during the day, they may have pains in their legs at night.

As teenagers, we often face a lot of problems. One of the common problems is about our studies. We may find it hard to focus on our lessons. There is so much homework and so many exams that we feel stressed. Sometimes, we may not get good grades, which makes us disappointed.
Another problem is about our relationships with our parents and friends. We may have arguments with our parents because they don’t understand us. They always tell us to study hard and don’t give us enough freedom. With friends, we may have misunderstandings. We may feel lonely if we don’t get along well with them.
Also, many teenagers care about their looks. They may worry about being too fat or too thin. They may try different ways to lose weight or gain weight, which sometimes is not good for their health.
However, we can do something to solve these problems. For study problems, we can make a study plan and manage our time better. We can also ask teachers and classmates for help. When it comes to relationship problems, we should communicate more with our parents and friends. Let them know our feelings and listen to their opinions. About our looks, we should remember that health is more important than appearance. We should eat a balanced diet and do regular exercise.

In large families, it is quite often for brothers and sisters to fight each other and then they can only go to their friends for some ideas. It is very important for better teenagers to have one good friend or a group of friends.

However, parents often try to choose their children’s friends for them. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. Have you ever thought of the following questions

Imagine you’re sitting around with some friends playing video games and someone mentions a game that happens to be one of your favorites. “Oh, that game is not worth the time,” one of your friends says. The others agree. Although you enjoy the game quite a lot, not wanting to argue (争吵) with them, you go along with the group.
You have just experienced what is commonly called peer (同伴) pressure, which forces you to adopt (采用) a certain type of behavior (行为), clothes, or attitude (态度) in order to be accepted as part of a group of your “peers”. We are all influenced by our peers at any age. As a teen, you are likely to have experienced the influence of peer pressure in different ways.
According to Dr. Casey from Cornell University, teens are very quick and accurate (准确的) in making decisions on their own and in situations where they have time to think. However, if they make decisions when they lose control over anger or in social situations, their decisions are often influenced by factors (因素) like peers. In a recent study, teen volunteers played a video driving game, either alone or with friends watching. The researchers discovered that the number of risks teens took more than doubled when their friends were watching, compared with (相比于) when they played alone. This shows that teens may find it more difficult to control risky behavior when their friends are around, or in situations where they are extremely (极度地) angry.
________ A teen might join in a volunteer project because his or her friends are doing it, or get good grades because his or her friends think getting good grades is important. In fact, true friends often encourage each other to study, or try out for sports.
While you are always influenced by those around you, the decision to act or not is up to you. What you have to do first is to tell whether it is negative (消极的) peer pressure. But what is more important for you is to learn how to deal with it, which makes you mature (成熟的) and confident.

D．Teenagers under peer pressure act like their peers to avoid being refused by them.
71．Which sentence is the best to put in the “________”

B．However, peers can also influence teens in a positive (积极的) way.
C．There are some examples of how peers influence each other.

There are some really strange school rules in the world that might shock you, from not allowing students to wear their Ugg boots into class to not allowing schoolbags into the classroom. Here are some of the strangest school rules from around the world!
·Teachers cannot mark students’ papers in red ink.
Remember how our papers were filled with red markings by our teachers Well, some schools in Australia and the UK ban (禁止)teachers from marking papers in red ink. 74 So green ink has taken the place of red ink in marking students’ papers at these schools now.
· 75
A high school in London bans its students from all forms of physical contact (接触)including hugging, shaking hands and giving high-fives to help prevent bullying.
·Students cannot make best friends in school.
No more BFFs for you, British kids! 76 However, can you imagine if your school banned you from making best friends No, right Well, at a few UK schools, teachers are preventing children from making best friends in order to save others’ feelings.
·Students are allowed to use the washroom during class only three times each term.
Some schools in Chicago limit (限制)the number of times that a student is allowed to use the washroom. 77 This school allows its students to use the washroom during class only three times each term so that they don’t miss their classes. In case they miss a class, they have to make up the missed teaching time after school.
A．Yes, you read it right.
B．They say it is a “negative” color.
C．Students are banned from greetings.
D．A school has put a no-contact ban on students.
E．Friends play a very important role in our school life.
In today’s society, many young people worry about how they look, which leads to feelings of anxiety (焦虑).
In Japan, people are usually shyer and quieter than people in Western countries. This can make students less confident and stop them from showing who they are. For example, during the COVID-19 pandemic, masks became a daily part of life. Even after the pandemic, many Japanese students still wore masks because they felt nervous about showing their faces.
In Sweden, many students worry about how they look, and social media (社交媒体) is a big reason. The pictures students see online often show people who look perfect, and this makes them feel like they need to look the same. This problem gets worse because of apps like Photoshop, which make people look even more perfect. Students compare themselves with these pictures and feel anxious.
In Mexico, students feel nervous about their looks, too. Ana, a 14-year-old, has seen some classmates get anxious when they get pimples (青春痘) and others talk about makeup tips and share cosmetics (化妆品) in the restroom. These worries are common among teenagers as their bodies change and grow. She thinks things like social pressure from friends, bullying (霸凌), and seeing pop stars influence these feelings. She says that overcoming these worries helps teenagers better understand and accept themselves. She also encourages everyone to focus on what they’re good at and remember that it’s okay to look different because nobody is perfect.
However, things get better in Singapore. Huang Luofei, a 13-year-old, noticed that not many people at her school worry about how they look. She believes this is because Singapore is a multicultural (多元文化的) country with many different ideas of beauty and style. People there care more about personality than appearance, and schools let students truly be themselves.
Do students in your country worry about how they look What makes them feel this way What do you think about it Anyway, it’s important for you to remember that everyone is different and everyone can be beautiful in their own way.
78．Why do many Japanese students still wear masks even after the COVID-19 pandemic

B．To advise young people to help friends become confident.
C．To ask young people to stop caring about their looks.
D．To tell people to use apps to make themselves look better.
①Going to the doctor can seem boring as a child and even as a teen. But when do people really start taking their health seriously According to a survey of 2,000 adults in the UK, people don’t start seriously to pay attention to their health until the age of 38—and often only after some health scare.
②The study found that some people took better care of themselves only after they experienced new pains and reached a milestone (里程碑) birthday. Others were warned to take action after a loved one died or experienced a health problem. Famous people also play a role in making people take notice of their health. After King Charles was reported to be going through treatment for cancer, the UK National Health Service’s webpage about the condition received more visits than before.
③The study also found that 11 percent of adults said they still didn’t take their health very seriously. Nearly half didn’t take much notice at a younger age as they felt fine most of the time. However, 36 percent simply felt they were too young to need to worry about it. And 25 percent felt that nothing bad would happen to them.
④It can be very easy to disregard your health especially when you are young or you feel that everything is OK. No one wants to think that there might be something wrong, but often the early signs of a health problem are not clear. Sometimes it can take a bit of a wake-up call before you start taking your health more seriously, whether that is falling ill yourself or seeing a loved one or even a well-known person experience a health problem.
⑤There’s no one-size-fits-all way when we talk about keeping healthy.

A．Going to the doctor is boring for everyone.

85．Which of the following will most probably be discussed next
A．Plans for the research in the future. B．Medical problems of famous people.

What’s your dream job How much do you know about it A group of students from Tianjin found a very common problem among young teenagers: Most of them have little idea about their career plans as there is too little help from school or family.
The students from a Tianjin middle school started a project called “Dian Zhi Cheng Shi (点职成诗)” to offer teenagers helpful advice on career.
According to students’ needs, the team interviewed 32 excellent workers with different jobs and put their interviews on the Internet. These workers shared true stories behind each job. They also invited the workers to give speeches in school. In this way, students could have a chance to talk to them face to face.
Team member Lu Jinyan said his most impressive (印象深刻的) interview was with a photographer (摄影师). “I thought being a photographer was cool in the past. But now I realize that they need to deal with lots of problems, like a sudden change of weather. They also need to communicate with different people. This is not easy.”
But the project doesn’t mean to let students down by telling them the truth. “We want to show the workers’ love and spirit of never giving up,” said a group member. “The project's name means to turn a career into a poem. We believe working is not just about bread and butter. It should be like a poem, full of love and beauty.”
86．Why do most students know little about their career plans
A．Because there are too many job choices.
B．Because schools or families can hardly provide help.
C．Because they are not interested in planning their careers.
D．Because they want to get higher education instead of working.
87．The purpose of the project “Dian Zhi Cheng Shi” is to ________.
A．write students' dream jobs into beautiful poems
B．help students communicate with different people
C．make students sad by telling them the truth
D．provide useful career advice for teenagers
88．What does the project member Lu Jinyan think of being a photographer now
A．Hard and challenging. B．Cool and easy.
C．Exciting and amazing. D．Impressive and meaningful.
89．What is the best title for the passage
A．Dealing with Job Problems B．Communicating with Workers
C．Learning Poems about Jobs D．Knowing about Dream Jobs
