How
to
Get
Free
Tickets
to
The
Steve
Harvey
Show
Do
you
want
to
check
out
The
Steve
Harvey
Show？All
you
have
to
do
is
ask
and
wait.
As
with
many
daytime
talk
shows，tickets
to
see
the
taping
of
The
Steve
Harvey
Show
are
free.They’re
given
away
in
order
to
fill
the
audience
with
fans.The
catch
is
that
the
show
often
gives
away
more
tickets
than
seats
since
usually
some
people
won’t
show
up
on
the
taping
dates.
There
is
good
news
and
bad
news.The
good
is
that
even
if
you
don’t
get
tickets，you
might
be
able
to
get
standby
tickets(候补票)．The
bad
is
that
even
if
you
do
have
tickets，you’re
not
guaranteed
a
seat.Be
sure
to
show
up
early
and
your
chances
will
improve.
Request
your
tickets
to
The
Steve
Harvey
Show
The
process
for
requesting
tickets
could
not
be
easier.You’ll
simply
give
the
show
your
information
and
the
date
you’d
like
to
attend.
You
may
need
to
check
back
in
frequently
to
see
when
they’re
taping.If
anything
is
scheduled，it’s
often
only
for
one
or
two
weeks
at
a
time.
1．Visit
The
Steve
Harvey
Show’s
official
website.
2．You’ll
find
a

taping
dates.Select
one
that
works
best
for
you.
3．Fill
out
the
online

up.It’s
pretty
straightforward—name，email，phone
number，address，requested
date，etc.

sure
everyone
attending
is
18
years
old
or
older.
Attending
The
Steve
Harvey
Show
Remember
that
your
requested
date
is
not
guaranteed.The
show
will
do
its
best
to

seat
at
your
request，but
it
is
possible
that
you
may
receive
tickets
for
a
different

答案　ABC
B
Mike
Hayes
of
Rochelle，Illinois，proved
he
was
smart
in
his
first
year
at
college.In
1987，while
he
was
a
student
in
the
first
year
of
the
University
of
Illinois，he
had
gotten
$2,500
from
a
job
working
at
a
store，but
that
money
would
not
go
far
to
pay
the
four
years
of
tuition(学费)
and
college
expenses
that
added
up
to
around
$28,000.His
middle?class
family
had
already
put
his
older
brothers
through
college.While
Mike’s
parents
would
have
helped
him
to
pay，Mike
decided
he
did
not
want
his
parents
going
into
debt
for
him.He
came
up
with
an
idea
to
solve
this
problem.
Mike
wrote
to
Chicago
Tribune
writer
Bob
Greene.He
wanted
each
of
the
newspaper’s
readers
to
send
him
a
penny(分)．Greene
thought
the
idea
sounded
fun
and
agreed
to
do
it.He
shared
Mike’s
letter
with
his
readers
on
September
6,1987.
“Just
one
penny，”
Mike
said.“A
penny
doesn’t
mean
anything
to
anyone.If
everyone
who
is
reading
your
reports
looks
around
the
room
right
now，there
will
be
a
penny
on
the
corner
of
the
desk，or
on
the
floor.That’s
all
I’m
asking.A
penny
from
each
of
your
readers.”
In
less
than
a
month，the
Many
Pennies
for
Mike
fund(基金)
had
around
$23,000.Donations
were
received
from
every
state
in
the
United
States，and
even
Mexico，Canada，and
the
Bahamas.So，Mike
achieved
his
$28,000
goal
and
went
on
to
learn
food
science
from
the
University
of
Illinois.
In
the
end，Mike
had
this
to
say
about
the
whole
thing，“I
just
want
to
express
my
thanks
to
everyone...right
now
I’m
feeling
that
the
world
is
a
pretty
great
place.”
24．What
troubled
Mike
when
he
was
in
his
first
year
at
college?
A．He
couldn’t
afford
his
tuition.
B．He
failed
to
find
a
part?time
job.
C．His
parents
were
unwilling
to
help.
D．His
parents
had
huge
debts
to
pay
off.
25．Why
did
Mike
write
to
Greene?
A．To
ask
for
help.
B．To
send
his
greetings.
C．To
express
his
thanks.
D．To
introduce
himself.
26．What
can
we
infer
from
Paragraph
4
about
Mike?
A．His
fund
needed
more
donations.
B．He
became
rich
and
successful.
C．His
plan
really
worked.
D．He
asked
for
too
much.
27．What’s
the
best
title
for
the
text?
A．Pennies
for
Readers
B．The
Value
of
Education
C．Mike’s
Business
in
College
D．The
One
Penny

答案　AACD
C
Artificial
Intelligence(AI)
is
making
it
possible
for
companies
to
monitor
workers’
behavior
in
great
detail
and
in
real
time.Start
to
slack
off(懈怠)，and
AI
could
talk
to
your
boss.
One
company
offering
such
services
is
London?based
start?up
Status
Today.Its
AI
platform
a
regular
supply
of
employee
data，including
everything
from
the
files
you
to
when
you
use
a
key
card.From
this，it
builds
a
picture
of
how
employees
normally
function
and
signals
any
unusual
performance.The
idea
is
to
spot
when
someone
might
become
a
risk
by
doing
something
different
from
their
usual
behavioral
patterns.“All
of
this
gives
us
fingerprint
of
a
user，so
if
we
think
the
fingerprint
doesn’t
match，we
raise
a
warning，”says
Mircea
Dumitrescu，the
company’s
chief
technology
officer.
The
system
also
aims
to
catch
employee
actions
that
could
accidentally
cause
a
security
breach(漏洞)，like
opening
malware(恶意软件)．“We’re
not
monitoring
if
your
computer
has
a
virus.”
says
Dumitrescu.“We’re
monitoring
human
behaviors.”
But
catching
the
security
breach
means
monitoring
everyone，and
the
AI
can
also
be
used
to
track
employee
productivity.“It
seems
like
they
are
just
using
the
reputation
of
AI
to
give
an
air
of
lawfulness
to
old?fashioned
workplace
surveillance(监视)，”
says
Javier
Ruiz
Diaz
of
digital
campaigning
organization
the
Open
Rights
Group.“You
have
a
right
to
privacy
and
you
shouldn’t
be
expected
to
give
that
up
at
work.”
Exactly
how
companies
use
the
system
will
be
up
to
them，but
it’s
hard
to
shake
the
picture
of
an
AI
looking
over
employees’
shoulders.“It
will
bother
people，and
that
could
be
counterproductive
if
it
affects
their
behavior，”
says
Paul
Bemal
at
the
University
of
East
Anglia.
Phil
Legg
at
the
University
of
the
West
of
England
says
it
will
never
catch
every
security
risk.“If
people
know
they’re
being
monitored，they
can
change
their
behavior，”
he
says.
28．According
to
the
text，AI
monitors
employees
by
.
A．taking
pictures
of
them
B．getting
access
to
their
data
C．signaling
their
usual
performance
D．catching
their
actions
29．What’s
Javier
Ruiz
Diaz’s
attitude
towards
the
system?
A．Doubtful.
B．Supportive.
C．Uncaring.
D．Negative.
30．What
does
the
underlined
word
“that”
in
Paragraph
4
refer
to?
A．Security
breach.
B．Employees’
productivity.
C．The
right
to
privacy.
D．Workplace
surveillance.
31．Phil
Legg’s
concern
about
the
system
suggests
that
.
A．it
is
too
risky
to
be
used
at
work
B．it
will
affect
employees’
emotions
C．it
may
not
be
so
effective
as
expected
D．it
will
encourage
employee
productivity
答案　BDCC
D
Life
can
bring
us
down
from
time
to
time.At
some
point，you
may
find
yourself
in
what
you
will
consider
as
your
darkest
hour.As
you
try
to
find
your
way
out
of
that
bad
situation，you
should
try
to
remind
yourself
that
there
will
always
be
a
reason
to
be
grateful.
If
you
look
at
your
situation
now
and
compare
it
with
someone
else
who
is
in
much
deeper
trouble
than
you，I
am
sure
that
you’ll
find
something
to
be
thankful
for.We
all
have
our
share
of
problems，but
complaining
about
them
so
much
only
makes
us
blind
to
the
fact
that
there
are
miracles(奇迹)
which
happen
around
us
each
day.
When
all
your
needs
are
provided，then
you
should
be
content
and
happy.If
you
have
a
roof
over
your
head，some
proper
clothes
to
wear，enough
food
on
the
table，a
comfortable
place
to
sleep，clean
water
to
drink
and
you
are
free
to
make
your
own
choices，then
you
should
be
happy
and
grateful.Many
people
all
around
the
world，especially
those
who
are
at
war
or
those
in
very
poor
countries，would
give
anything
to
be
in
your
shoes.
Even
if
you
lose
all
your
money
or
possessions
and
your
heart
is
broken
for
some
reason，as
long
as
you
are
still
alive，then
everything
you
have
lost
can
be
regained.If
you
have
a
few
good
friends
who
will
be
there
to
support
or
help
you，then
be
glad
because
true
friends
are
hard
to
find.As
long
as
you
have
someone
to
love
and
someone
to
love
you
back，then
you
are
a
very
fortunate
person.Remember
to
be
patient
and
trust
that
things
will
get
better.
32．What
are
we
told
to
do
when
life
brings
us
down?
A．To
remind
ourselves
to
keep
calm.
B．To
find
a
way
out
of
the
situation
soon.
C．To
fight
against
the
bad
situation
bravely.
D．To
know
there
is
something
to
be
grateful
for.
33．That
we
complain
about
the
bad
situation
only
results
in
.
A．losing
others’
support
B．ignoring
something
good
C．having
a
far
worse
situation
D．taking
everything
for
granted
34．By
saying
the
underlined
sentence
“would
give
anything
to
be
in
your
shoes”，the
author
means
many
people
.
A．really
admire
your
shoes
B．are
in
a
better
situation
than
you
C．would
like
to
be
in
your
situation
D．never
know
the
value
of
your
shoes
35．According
to
the
author，as
long
as
you
are
still
alive，
.
A．you
should
be
content
and
happy
B．what
you’ve
lost
will
be
back
soon
C．you
will
certainly
lead
a
life
you
like
D．you
will
have
a
chance
to
get
what
you’ve
lost

第二节　(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Most
people
have
practiced
some
form
of
hobby
at
a
point
in
their
lives，whether
it
is
some
form
of
sports，playing
a
musical
instrument，creating
art，cooking
or
something
else.There
are
many
different
reasons
and
skills
for
taking
up
a
hobby.
Realize
you
have
more
time
than
you
think.
This
is
probably
the
one
thing
that
keeps
most
people
back
from
practicing
a
hobby.
36
But
we
waste
so
much
time
on
social
media，television
commercials
and
worrying
about
life
which
we
could
have
used
to
practice
a
hobby.Schedule
some
time
for
a
hobby
into
your
day.Plan
ahead
and
just
do
it.
Involve
other
people.
Why？Well，have
you
ever
noticed
that
you
stick
to
something
longer
when
you
feel
that
you
cannot
let
another
person
down？So，get
someone
to
jog
with
you，or
make
music
with
you，or
share
recipes
with
you.Plus，you
will
inspire
them
to
keep
on
practicing
their
hobbies.
37
Put
your
money
where
your
mouth
is.
38
So
give
out
a
bit
of
your
budget
to
your
hobby
of
choice
so
that
you
cannot
blame
a
lack
of
“materials”
for
not
doing
anything.
39
For
me，this
has
been
the
most
important
step
in
going
out
and
doing
a
hobby.If
you
jog，decide
which
races
you
want
to
do
this
year.If
you
practice
music，organize
a
concert.
Find
the
pleasure
in
what
you
do.
As
with
most
things，starting
of
getting
something
ready
to
start
can
be
difficult.But
don’
t
give
up.
40
A．It
is
a
total
win?win.
B．Work
towards
something.
C．Think
of
a
hobby
that
might
interest
you.
D．Others’
help
will
definitely
do
you
good.
E．You
think
that
you
don’
t
have
enough
time
to
even
start.
F．The
fact
is
that
people
spend
money
where
their
heart
is.
G．Once
you
have
started
you’ll
find
the
beauty
and
relaxation
in
it.

At

and
wasn’t
satisfied.After
a
while，though，I
began
to
find
52
in
helping
my

that
I
loved
so
much.I
sang
to
myself
while
I
piled
wood
up
and
smiled

Dear
Peter，
I’m
so
glad
to
hear
from
you
and
know
what
you
are
doing
these
days.I’m
writing
to
reply
to
your
concern
in
the
previous
letter
about
online
learning
during
COVID?19
epidemic.
As
is
scheduled，we
follow
the
same
routine
as
we
usually
do
at
school.However，the
way
teachers
teach
differs
individually.Science
teachers
lecture
a
lot
while
language
teachers
encourage
involvement.To
tell
the
truth，my
brain
didn’t
function
well
enough
at
first
because
of
the
distractions，such
as
video
games，online
chatting
and
absence
of
mind.Fortunately，I
adapted
myself
to
the
changes
and
gradually
caught
up.
As
for
my
expectations，I
sincerely
hope
everyone
will
stay
safe
and
healthy.I
can’t
wait
to
see
my
classmates
and
teachers
when
the
new
semester
starts.
Best
wishes!
Yours，
Li
Hua
第二节　(满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
Early
in
the
morning
I
went
to
the
ocean
beach
to
play
my
guitar.The
usually
crowded
beach
was
deserted
except
for
two
people.On
one
side
of
the
boardwalk(木板人行道)
was
a
woman
who
was
cleaning
the
beach
with
a
broom；on
the
other
side
was
a
lone
figure
sitting
and
staring
to
sea.I
chose
a
spot
between
them
and
began
to
play.
As
I
played，the
woman
with
the
broom
swept
her
way
right
next
to
me.She
stopped
sweeping
and
leaned
on
her
broom，smiling
at
me.She
appeared
to
be
homeless
with
dirty
mismatched
clothes.
“You
sure
play
beautiful
music.”
she
said.“I
think
my
friend
would
like
your
music.I
want
to
hire
you
to
play
for
her.”
She
pointed
to
the
lone
figure
staring
out
at
the
ocean，and
then
produced
a
few
coins
from
her
pocket.“I
don’t
have
much，and
I
know
you’re
worth
a
lot，but
if
I
give
this
to
you，will
you
play
a
song
for
her？She’s
going
through
a
lot.I
know
the
music
will
make
her
feel
better.”
I
told
her
I’d
be
happy
to
play
for
free.
As
we
walked
over
to
her
friend，the
Broom
Lady
told
me
that
her
friend
had
not
talked
for
weeks.We
approached，and
the
Broom
Lady
introduced
me，“Annie，I
got
you
a
present
to
cheer
you
up.It’s
a
guitar
man
who
is
going
to
play
a
song
specially
for
you.”
Annie
didn’t
move.She
was
wearing
dark
sunglasses
and
had
an
old
coat
pulled
up
to
cover
most
of
her
face.
I
sat
next
to
Annie
and
played.As
I
played
I
put
every
thought
into
having
good
things
happen
for
this
woman.I
played
for
quite
a
while.
Suddenly，Annie
turned
toward
me
and
said，“You
make
it
so
beautiful.I
can
feel
it
inside
my
heart.”
Paragraph
1：
She
took
off
her
sunglasses.
Paragraph
2：
When
I
stopped
playing
and
looked
up，I
was
shocked
to
see
a
small
crowd
around
us.

She
took
off
her
sunglasses.I
could
tell
a
faint
glow
pierced
the
dark
clouds
of
frustration
in
her
eyes.I
gestured
to
her
to
sit
opposite
to
me
and
she
slowly
moved
closer.I
kept
on
playing
the
guitar，trying
to
reveal
my
sympathy，understanding
and
comfort
through
the
soft
melodies.It
seemed
that
she
couldn’t
help
recalling
the
bitter
and
severe
days
she
went
through
as
tears
streamed
down
her
cheeks.She
didn’t
wipe
them
off
but
had
them
falling
down，as
if
all
her
worries
and
sorrows
went
away
as
well.
When
I
stopped
playing
and
looked
up，I
was
shocked
to
see
a
small
crowd
around
us.They
looked
at
me
with
enthusiasm，bursting
into
applause.Annie
stood
up
and
clapped
her
hands
too.Several
women，having
kept
an
eye
on
her，approached
and
hugged
her，whispering
some
cheerful
words
before
they
left.Refreshed
and
relieved，Annie
threw
her
arms
around
my
neck
and
uttered，“Thank
you
for
your
music.”，which
assured
the
Broom
Lady
of
her
return
to
normal
speech.I
had
put
on
numerous
shows
to
different
audiences，but
this
remained
the
most
healing
and
rewarding
one.
