Comparing college entrance exams, there are different needs for admission. The national college
entrance examination, or gaokao, is known as the most competitive test for Chinese students. Do
studentsin other countries also need to take astandardized test toget into university?
South Korea holds the College Scholastic Ability Test(CSAT) in November each year. The
CSAT plays an important role in the country’s education. On test day, bus and subway frequency
increases to makesure that students can get to thetest sitesin time.
Japan is trying to reform its standardized national college entrance exam. In January 2022,
Common Test for University Admissions took the place of the National Center Test for University
Admissions, which had been adopted since 1990. The new exam aims to put emphasis on the ability
ofstudents to discoverand solveproblems bythemselves.
The American College Test(ACT) and Scholastic Assessment Test(SAT) are the two main
college entrance exams taken by students in the US. While SAT tests a student’s ability to learn, the
ACT tests a student’s educational development. Both tests normally take place seven times
throughout theyear.Students can retake theexamsfor abetter score.
In the UK, there’s no standardized test for college admission. Instead, each college has their own
第3页共12页
{#{QQABaYyQggAIAJBAABgCEwXgCgAQkBACCAoGwEAMIAAAiRFABAA=}#}admission criteria. These criteria often only include submission of transcripts( 成 绩 单 ) and

A new color-changing ink could aid in health and environment monitoring — for example,
allowing clothing that switches colors when exposed to sweat or a curtain that shifts colors if carbon
monoxide (一氧化碳) enters a room. The chemicals could be printed on anything from a T-shirt to a
tent.
Wearable sensing devices like smartwatches use electronics to monitor heart rate, blood glucose
(血糖), and more. Now researchers at Tufts University’s Silklab say their new silk-based inks can
respond to thepresence of chemicals onoraround thebody.
The researchers had created an earlier version of the material that inkjet printers could spray on
fabric, turning small items, such as gloves, into sensors. For the recent study, published online in
May in Advanced Materials, they thickened the ink with certain chemicals and then added various
reactivesubstances.With thenew ink, theycan now “easily print alarge numberof reactiveelements
ontolarge surfaces,”says FiorenzoOmenetto, abiomedical engineer at Silklab.
“In the case of a T-shirt, the wearer ‘paints’the shirt through exercise — with colors correlating
to the acidity distribution of their sweat,” Omenetto says. He envisions using the ink to help monitor
such activity. It could also be adapted to track environmental changes in a room, he says — or to
respond to bacteriaand followdisease progression.
Mechanical engineer Tyler Ray of the University of Hawaii at Manoa, who was not involved

{#{QQABaYyQggAIAJBAABgCEwXgCgAQkBACCAoGwEAMIAAAiRFABAA=}#}with the study, notes that most of today’s wearable monitors are rigid, wired and relatively large and
heavy.The new ink technology has “the potential to transform consumer wearables from recreational
novelty devices into body-worn, clinical-grade physiological measurement tools that supply
physician-actionable information,” he says. But “one of the challenges with any colorimetric (比色
的) approach is the effect various environmental conditions have on accuracy, such as lighting or the
cameraused.”Future studies would need to address these issues.
28.What makes thenew ink different from theearlier version?
A. It can be printed onlarge items. B. It can be usedto monitorheart rate.
C. It doesn’t need electronics to work. D. It can change objects intosensors.
29.What could beinferred from paragraph 4?
A.Thewearer paints different colors onhisT-shirt.
B.Theinkcould solveenvironmental problem oneday.
C.Thewearer’sT-shirt willget wet and dirty through exercise.
D. Researcher mayuse theink tomonitorenvironmental conditions.
30.What doesTylerRay thinkabout thenewink technology?
A. It can be used in recreational newdevices.
B. It may provideuseful information fordoctors.
C. It can warn people ofsomedisease.
D. It may transform consumers’ideas about wearable monitors.
31.What willthefuture studies ofthenew ink technology focus on?
A. Its approach to environment monitoring.
B. Its effects onpeople’s health.

Nearly one-third of American adolescents and adults are affected by anxiety, according to the
National Institute of Mental Health. In fact, over the last decade, anxiety has surpassed depression as
the most common reason college students seek counseling (咨询) services, the New York Times
reported. Sixty-two percent of undergraduates in survey reported “unbearable anxiety,” a significant
increasefrom 50percent in 2011.
Anxiety, along with depression, cuts across all demographics (人口统计数据), including both
privileged and disadvantaged teenagers. But privileged teens are among the most emotionally upset
youth in America, Arizona State University psychology professor Suniya Luthar told the New York
第6页共12页
{#{QQABaYyQggAIAJBAABgCEwXgCgAQkBACCAoGwEAMIAAAiRFABAA=}#}Times.
“These kids are incredibly anxious and perfectionistic,” Suniya Luthar said, “there’s always one
more activity, one moreA.P. class, one more thing to do in order to get into a top college. Kids have
a sense that they’re not measuring up. The pressure is never-ending and getting worse.” But
helicopter parents aren’t always to blame. Many students internalize the anxiety and put the pressure
on themselves, Madeline Levine, co-founder of Challenge Success, a nonprofit aimed at improving
student well-being, told theTimes.
Another expert, psychiatrist Stephanie Eken, said despite the cultural differences, there’s a lot of
overlap among teens regarding what makes them anxious. Eken mentions factors range from school,
family conflicts, what food to eat, diseases, how they’re perceived by friends and notably in the last
few years, Eken told theTimes, to arising fear about terrorism. “They wonder about whether it’s safe
togo to a movietheater,”shesaid.
A lack of close, meaningful relationships is also a major factor. Experts have long said mental
and physical changes associated with puberty (青春期) may leave teens at higher risk for anxiety.
And social media doesn’t help, Eken said, adding that teens are always comparing themselves with
theirfriends, which leaves them miserable.
When Times reporter Benoit Denizet-Lewis visited Mountain Valley, a nonprofit that offers
teens need-based assistance for $910 a day, a college student at the facility said, “I don’t think we
realize how much it’s affecting our moods and personalities. Social media is a tool, but it’s become
thisthing that wecan’t livewithoutbut that’s makingus crazy.”
32.What isthefirst paragraph mainly about?
A.Abig riseinanxietyamong teens.
B.Areport onmental health ofadolescents.
C. Common mental health disorders in adults.
D.The reason foradults seeking counseling services.
33.What doweknowabout privileged teenagers according toSuniya Luthar?
A.Their parents pressure them too much.
B.They are less anxiousthan disadvantaged teenagers.
C.Theirpressure often comes from themselves, not from others.
D.They sufferextremeanxietyunder pressure ofperfection.

Admittedly, complex writing that uses rich vocabulary and vivid figurative language can wow
readers. But it isn’t the only mark of a good writer — another skill that’s of equal importance is the
ability to convey ideas in plain language. 36 Towrite inplain language, there are somegeneral
guidelines foryou to follow.
37 The only details they include are those necessary for the reader to understand the
sentences’meaning. For example, the sign “Wait behind the yellow line.” at a train platform includes
“yellow” so travelers knowwhere tostand.
Plain language avoids using vocabulary that requires specialized knowledge. If you work in IT,
you can comfortably use the word “latency” with your colleagues. 38 But when speaking
with someone without an IT background, you might instead use “slow” to ensure that they know
what you’re talking about.
Plain language is more than word choices, though. It also involves structuring writing to
prioritize clarity. 39 For example, use clear headers for each section and keep paragraphs
focused on one idea each. Make the relationships between ideas and sentences clear with transition
words.Write directly to your reader.Additionally, use the active voice whenever possible to enhance
clarity.
It is important to note that not every guideline for plain writing will apply to every piece of
writing. The ultimate goal is to create contents that are accessible and easily understood. By using
plain language, you demonstrate respect for your readers’timeand intelligence. 40
A.That is because they knowwhat it means.
B. Plainlanguage reduces therisk of misunderstandings caused byconfusing language choices.
C.Thus, itdevelops positiverelationships with them.
D. It involves using direct and accessiblelanguage with astraightforward structure.

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。
I was lying in bed in the dark ready for sleep I got the heart-broken news that my parents lost
their lives in the flight accident. I couldn't accept the news for a long time, since nobody would stay
with me in the empty house. In the weeks that followed, with depression and grief, I decided to
continue seeing the counselor on my own. One day, he gave me a homework assignment: I was to
writedown a listofone hundred lifegoals in my rest ofmy life.
It took me two weeks to complete the task. When I finally handed over the list, I was instructed
me to pick one goal and take two small steps toward it before the following week. Looking over my
list of one hundred goals, I chose. “Fly an airplane.” I bought a flying magazine. That was one step.
Then I went to a local airport and arranged with a flight instructor to take a low-cost “Discovery
Flight.”
And so began my journey to become a pilot, starting from scratch.No knowledge. No
experience.When Ibought $300 worth of textbooks, I began to question what I’dgotten myself into.
Then came thefear that accompanies every new challenge thrown at one whileflying.
That's when I realized I needed to adjust my mental attitude. Somewhere along the way, I had
read that people should tell themselves they were the best at whatever they were attempting to do. I
第11页共12页
{#{QQABaYyQggAIAJBAABgCEwXgCgAQkBACCAoGwEAMIAAAiRFABAA=}#}tookthis to heart. With that well-hidden confidence. I sought the help of flight instructors and ground
instructors. The instructors encouraged me to believe that I was born to be a super pilot and just to
recover all this“lost”ability.Noway would Iever miss aflying training class.
Eventually, the time came for my first flight check with the chief instructor, an airline pilot with
11,000 hours.As if I wasn’t nervous enough already, one of my classmates told me that he'd recently
been through the same routine. Not only did he fail but he actually cried. But passing the test is a
mustto get thepilot certification.
