Personal information is like the keys to your house. Giving these keys to the wrong people can be like allowing a stranger into your house without you even knowing.

Most of the world’s progress is made by the few pioneers who break barriers (阻碍), reach new distances, and find a new path. They are the few brave enough to believe in the seemingly impossible and try their best to make it possible. Once they do this, they open the gates for others to follow.
A powerful example of this is Roger Bannister, who in 1954, broke the four-minute mile barrier with a record of 3 minutes, 59.4 seconds. Before Bannister succeeded, the thought was considered not only dangerous but impossible. But Bannister did not pay attention to it, he developed within himself a certainty that it was achievable, even though there was no evidence (证据) to suggest it. In fact, there was a lot of evidence to suggest it wasn’t achievable. But his belief to success allowed him to train for years to his end goal.
On 6 May, 1954, Bannister’s remarkable achievement created a new wisdom. Just 24 days later, the barrier was broken again and in the last 50 years, more than 1,000 other runners have achieved the feat (成就). It was not that these runners had improved physical (身体的) qualities from the runners who had tried and failed before them, but that they had improved psychological (心理的) qualities. They had proof (证明) of the possible.
Sometimes we do need to see it to believe it. But if we care about stories of problems and failures, it can be difficult to see beyond them. Those people who achieve extraordinary things do not accept the current standards, they break the barriers of “what is” and push beyond them to “what could be”. Through learning from those who break barriers, we too can make our own potentials come true - to be a powerful force for good.
38. What does the underlined word “this” refer to in Paragraph 2
A. Finding a new path. B. Being a pioneer.
C. The world’s progress. D. The 4-minute mile barrier.
39. What do we know about Roger Bannister
A. He wanted others to follow him. B. He received support from his family.
C. He made a great achievement in running. D. He collected evidence to support himself.
40. Why are “other runners” mentioned in Paragraph 3
A. To show the bravery of other runners. B. To show the importance of pioneers.
C. To show the power of following others. D. To show the importance of physical qualities.
41. What does the writer advise the readers to do in the last paragraph
A. Forget the barriers. B. Learn from failures.
C. Achieve the potentials. D. Accept the current standards.
(D)
Most people nowadays wear sneakers (运动鞋), leather (皮革) shoes or boots. But in ancient China, many people made their own cloth shoes.
Tangchang, a town in Sichuan province with 700 years of shoe making history, is known for its cloth shoes.
Tangchang cloth shoes “are easy to walk in, and they don’t get damp (潮湿的) easily,” Xinhua noted.
Tangchang cloth shoes were popular in China until the 1980s. According to China Daily, there were five Tangchang cloth shoe factories in Chengdu alone. In 2018, Tangchang cloth shoes were added to Sichuan’s intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) list.
But making cloth shoes is not easy. Growing up in Tangchang, Lai Shufang, 63, is a master of making cloth shoes and has been making them for over 40 years. The job is very demanding (费力的) and over time customers prefer sneakers.
Many factories producing Tangchang cloth shoes were shut down. The last, where Lai worked, shut down in 1998.To make a living and help the cultural heritage survive, however, Lai and her co-workers continued to make cloth shoes and sold them in her store.
Ai Peng, Lai’s son, also helps and adds Shu embroidery (蜀绣) to the shoes.
They now sell about 10,000 pairs of shoes each year.
42. What shoes did people wear in ancient China
A. Sneakers. B. Boots. C. Cloth shoes. D. Leather shoes.
43. What can we learn about Tangchang cloth shoes
A. Few factories can make them in China. B. They are easy and comfortable to wear.
C. They don’t have any cultural meaning. D. More people choose to wear them than before.
44. What does the underlined word “survive” mean in Paragraph 6
A. die out B. stay popular C. make money D. continue to last

a. She was busy making cloth shoes in their factory.
b. The place she used to work closed down.
c. The shoes in her store began to sell well.
d. She learned how to make cloth shoes more than 40 years ago.
e. Her son improved the design of the shoes by adding Shu embroidery.

Only friend or follow people you know—if you receive a friend request from someone you don’t know, it is best to say no to their request.
Keep your email and phone number private (隐秘的)—your email address might have your name and you don’t want to get unwanted texts, calls or emails.
Don’t fill in all the fields on forms—if you sign up for something online, like a competition or quiz, only fill out the fields that are marked with an asterisk (this symbol *), which means that you must fill it in.

Most of the world’s progress is made by the few pioneers who break barriers (阻碍), reach new distances, and find a new path. They are the few brave enough to believe in the seemingly impossible and try their best to make it possible. Once they do this, they open the gates for others to follow.
A powerful example of this is Roger Bannister, who in 1954, broke the four-minute mile barrier with a record of 3 minutes, 59.4 seconds. Before Bannister succeeded, the thought was considered not only dangerous but impossible. But Bannister did not pay attention to it, he developed within himself a certainty that it was achievable, even though there was no evidence (证据) to suggest it. In fact, there was a lot of evidence to suggest it wasn’t achievable. But his belief to success allowed him to train for years to his end goal.
On 6 May, 1954, Bannister’s remarkable achievement created a new wisdom. Just 24 days later, the barrier was broken again and in the last 50 years, more than 1,000 other runners have achieved the feat (成就). It was not that these runners had improved physical (身体的) qualities from the runners who had tried and failed before them, but that they had improved psychological (心理的) qualities. They had proof (证明) of the possible.
Sometimes we do need to see it to believe it. But if we care about stories of problems and failures, it can be difficult to see beyond them. Those people who achieve extraordinary things do not accept the current standards, they break the barriers of “what is” and push beyond them to “what could be”. Through learning from those who break barriers, we too can make our own potentials come true - to be a powerful force for good.
38. What does the underlined word “this” refer to in Paragraph 2
A. Finding a new path. B. Being a pioneer.
C. The world’s progress. D. The 4-minute mile barrier.
39. What do we know about Roger Bannister
A. He wanted others to follow him. B. He received support from his family.
C. He made a great achievement in running. D. He collected evidence to support himself.
40. Why are “other runners” mentioned in Paragraph 3
A. To show the bravery of other runners. B. To show the importance of pioneers.
C. To show the power of following others. D. To show the importance of physical qualities.
41. What does the writer advise the readers to do in the last paragraph
A. Forget the barriers. B. Learn from failures.
C. Achieve the potentials. D. Accept the current standards.
【答案】38. B 39. C 40. B 41. C

Most people nowadays wear sneakers (运动鞋), leather (皮革) shoes or boots. But in ancient China, many people made their own cloth shoes.
Tangchang, a town in Sichuan province with 700 years of shoe making history, is known for its cloth shoes.
Tangchang cloth shoes “are easy to walk in, and they don’t get damp (潮湿的) easily,” Xinhua noted.
Tangchang cloth shoes were popular in China until the 1980s. According to China Daily, there were five Tangchang cloth shoe factories in Chengdu alone. In 2018, Tangchang cloth shoes were added to Sichuan’s intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) list.
But making cloth shoes is not easy. Growing up in Tangchang, Lai Shufang, 63, is a master of making cloth shoes and has been making them for over 40 years. The job is very demanding (费力的) and over time customers prefer sneakers.
Many factories producing Tangchang cloth shoes were shut down. The last, where Lai worked, shut down in 1998.To make a living and help the cultural heritage survive, however, Lai and her co-workers continued to make cloth shoes and sold them in her store.
Ai Peng, Lai’s son, also helps and adds Shu embroidery (蜀绣) to the shoes.
They now sell about 10,000 pairs of shoes each year.
42. What shoes did people wear in ancient China
A. Sneakers. B. Boots. C. Cloth shoes. D. Leather shoes.
43. What can we learn about Tangchang cloth shoes
A. Few factories can make them in China. B. They are easy and comfortable to wear.
C. They don’t have any cultural meaning. D. More people choose to wear them than before.
44. What does the underlined word “survive” mean in Paragraph 6
A. die out B. stay popular C. make money D. continue to last
45. In what order did the following happen in Lai’s life
a. She was busy making cloth shoes in their factory.
b. The place she used to work closed down.
c. The shoes in her store began to sell well.
d. She learned how to make cloth shoes more than 40 years ago.
e. Her son improved the design of the shoes by adding Shu embroidery.
A. d-a-b-e-c B. d-a-e-b-c C. a-d-c-b-e D. a-c-d-b-e

Overcoming Internet Addiction
Nowadays, people use the Internet very often in their daily lives to do a lot of things. However, it can have a bad influence on people, especially students. Internet addiction is a growing concern.
Students with Internet addiction usually spend hours online instead of studying. They play games, watch videos, or chat endlessly, not caring about real-life relationships. There are some possible reasons why they become addicted to the Internet. Firstly, many students find it difficult to say no to the allure of the virtual world, where achievements feel easier than in real life. Secondly, some students use the Internet to escape from stress or loneliness, avoiding real-life problems. To overcome Internet addiction, here are my suggestions. First of all, set time limits. Parents can use apps to block websites after study hours. Besides, encourage students to develop new hobbies like sports or reading to fill free time meaningfully.
Let’s use the Internet wisely to overcome Internet addiction and have a healthier life.
