I opened my car window and called out “Ma’am! Ma’am!” The only lady in the parking lot looked around until
she saw me. “I just wanted to tell how nice you look today,” I said. “The colors you have on are beautiful on you.”
Her face registered surprise for a second, and then she smiled. “Thank you!” she called back. Her final steps to her
car seemed lighter, and I smiled to myself.
I grew up with very few cheerleaders in my own life. When I was in the middle of fighting a battle for my life,I had been confirmed depression, along with anxiety. It has taken many years and more effort and determination
than I thought I was capable of recovering from this illness. With no cheerleaders in my court, I fought this battle
alone. I am proud of the progress I have made thus far. There are times when I thought, if only I had had someone to
hold me and say, “Susan, I believe in you. You can do this, and I’ll be there every step of the way.” I wonder how
much sooner I would have recovered. I’ll never know.
So I have made it a point in recent years to praise people, especially women and girls. Instead of just thinking
that someone looks nice or did a great job, I say it out loud. It doesn’t take long, and it’s easy. So, I wonder, why
don’t more people do this? As women, we have learned from our role models to be quiet. We downplay (淡化) our
own achievements even when we do receive a rare compliment (恭维). Now, when I compliment someone and she
denies, I say to her, “Just say thank you.” Most women are relieved that they don’t have to deny the compliment; they
can accept the praise without guilt.
Cheerleading doesn’t require any skills. It only takes a few seconds, although you do have to remind yourself to
do it. Eventually, it becomes a habit.
24. How did the lady feel after hearing the author’s praise?
A. Delighted. B. Anxious.
.
C Relaxed. D. Worried.
25. What made the author become a cheerleader?
A. Her experiences.
B. Her habit.
C. Her personality.
D. Her ambition.
26. What does the author hope when she praises someone?
A. She can be rewarded.
B. She can be appreciated.
C. They can accept the praise.
D. They should say something.
27. Which of the following best describes the author?
A. Caring. B. Brave.
C. Outgoing. D. Honest.
C
Modern inventions have speeded up people’s lives amazingly. Motor-cars cover a hundred miles in little more thanan hour. Aireraft cross the world a day, while computers operate at lightning speed. Indeed, this love of speed seems
never-ending. Every year motor-cars are produced which go even faster each new computer boasts (吹嘘) of saving
precious seconds in handling tasks.
All this saves time, but at a price. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane,
our bodies tell us so. We get the uncomfortable feeling known as jet-lag; our bodies feel that they have been left
bebind in another time zone. Again, spending too long at computers results in painful wrists and fingers. Mobile
phones also have dange according to some seientists; too much use may transmit harmful radiation into our brains,
a consequence we do not like to think about.
However, what do we do with the time we have saved? Certainly not relax, or so it seems. We are so
accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing, or even just one thing at a time.
Perhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imaginations take us
into another world.
There was a time when some people’s lives were devoted simply to the cultivation of the land or the care of
cattle. No multi-tasking there; their lives went on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pattern. There is much
that we might envy about a way of life like this. Yet before we do so, we must think of the hard tasks our ancestors
faeed; they farmed with bare hands, often lived close to hunger, and had to fashion tools from wood and stone.
Modern machinery has freed people from that primitive existence.
28. The new products become more and more time-saving beeause_________.
A. our love on speed seems never-ending
B. time is limited
C. the prices are increasingly high
D. the manufacturers boast a lot
.
29 What does“the days”in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Imaginary life. B. Simple life in the past.
C. Times of inventions. D. Time for constant activity.
30. What is the author’s attitude towards the modern technology?
A. Critical. B. Objective. C. Optimistic. D. Negative.
31. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The present and past times. B. Machinary and human beings.
C. Imaginations and inventions. D. Modern technology and its influence.
DThe Paris Olympic Games opened last night with a high-kitsch (庸俗的), riverside performance, as an armada
(舰队) of boats carried athletes along the Seine River and the Olympic rings lit up the Eiffel Tower all under the
pouring rain.
France had promised its opening ceremony would be the biggest open-air show on Earth. The show had promised
to light-heartedly show French style, and the US singer Lady Gaga was the first star to set the tone for a tongue-in-
cheek kitsch (庸俗的) performance. She appeared from a giant golden staircase on the edge of the Seine surrounded
by and giant pink feather fans, for a high-kicking cabaret (卡巴莱歌舞表演) performance of France’s famous 1960s
music-hall number “MonTrucen Plumes” by Zizi Jeanmarie.
Paris’s river party was the first time that the opening ceremony of the world’s biggest sporting event had taken
place outside a stadium. But the outdoor ceremony, once described by Emmanuel Macron as “a crazy idea that must
be made real”, had to overcome obstacles (阻碍).
,
First a series of attacks on the high-speed TGV rail network caused travel chaos across France hours before
the ceremony began. Then came a weather nightmare; instead of the soft summer evening light that directors had
hoped for. There was heavy rain that weather forecasters said it was the equivalent of 15 days’ rainfall in six hours.
Thomas Jolly, the young French director who created the unreal show, had said he did not want just “spotlight” but
a concentration of “our shared humanity”. He said he chose the Seine River for its “power to heal from tragedies like
Paris’s 2015 terrorist attacks, as well as the 2019 fire at Notre Dame. Indeed, part of the show was a performance
pre-filmed dance routine of workers performing high-risk dances around Notre Dame.
32. What is special about the Paris Olympic Games opening ceremony according to the passage?
A. Athletes from different countries.
B. Diverse performances feature French culture.
C. Eiffel Tower served as the main stage for the performance.
D. It started without a stadium
33. What does the underlined word in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Speaking or writing in an ironic (讽刺的) way.
B. Having or showing trained ability.
C. Being serious.
D. Behaving in a way that is expected.
34. What blocked Emmanuel Macron's idea of making the “crazy idea” real?
A. Athletes and audiences were outside.
B. The horrible weather with continuous and pouring rain bothered directors.C. A travel chaos caused by railway workers.
D. Some foreign officials left their seats in the opening ceremony.
35. What did Thomas Jolly focus when he prepared the show?
A. The French history and culture.
.
B The core of the shared humanity.
C. The unforgettable memory.
D. The presence of upper-class celebrities.

Katie was exceptionally small. We were in the fifth grade, but she was as short as a third grader. Although her
body was small, Katie was big at heart. She had a sharp mind, too. Sometimes she got her share of teasing, but
Katie knew how to handle it. All the kids who knew Katie liked her a lot.
Katie loved helping others in the class, so whenever someone was stuck on the computer he always called her
for help and advice. Katie loved jokes and she always had a joke that would cheer someone up whenever he was
down. She was truly the most kind and generous friend anyone could ask for.
But the other day she was in big trouble. She was such a sweet kid, a third-grade teacher always dreamed of
having a classroom filled with students like Katie. She was never ever a discipline problem. I just couldn’t imagine
why she had made her parents so angry.
It seemed that Katie had been running up (积欠) sizable charges in the lunchroom. Her parents explained that
Katie brought a great homemade lunch each day, and there was no reason for her to buy school lunch. They
assumed a sit-down with Katie would solve the problem, but failed. So they asked me to help them get to the
bottom of this situation.
So the next day, I asked Katie to my office. “Why are you charging (记账) lunches, Katie? What happens to
your homemade lunch?” I asked. “I lose it,” she responded. I leaned back in my chair and said. “I don’t believe
you, Katie.” She didn’t care. “Is someone stealing your lunch, Katie?” I took a new track. “No. I just lose it,” she
said. Well, there was nothing else I could do.
