阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。
When I was in my first year of high school, I had a terrible time when every area of my life was a disaster. I
felt so hopeless and alone that I thought everything was impossible.
On one such day, I was walking from class across the school to catch the school bus home, with my head
down, fighting tears of total hopelessness, when a young man came down the sidewalk toward me. Though I had
never seen him before, I did not want him to see that I was in such low spirits, so I turned my head away and hoped
to hurry past. I thought he’d walk on by, but he moved until he was directly in front of me, waited until I looked up,
and then smiled.
Looking into my eyes, this stranger spoke in a quiet voice: “Whatever is wrong will pass. You’re going to be
OK, just hang on.” He then smiled again and walked away.
I can’t explain the effect of that man’s unexpected kindness and caring! He gave me the one thing that I’d lost
completely—hope. I looked for him in our school to thank him, but never saw him again.
That was thirty years ago. And I’ve never forgotten that moment. Over the years, whenever I see someone who
is in trouble, I will always think of that young man and try to give a flash of hope in the dark wherever I can. I carry
things for people when they are too heavy for them, sit with naughty babies in the waiting room while their mothers
are busy, or talk to tired couples at the checkout line or it could be anything. If you keep your head up, your heart
will show you the place that needs hope.
24. Where did the writer meet the young man?
A. In the school. B. In the library.
第4页/共9页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司C. In the classroom. D. On the school bus.
.
25 What made the writer feel hopeful again?
A. The accident on the school bus.
.
B The young man’s smile and words.
C. Talking to tired couples at the checkout line.
D. Sitting with naughty babies in the waiting room.
26. What can we know from the passage?
.
A The writer was thankful to meet the young man.
B. The writer made good friends with the young man.
.
C The writer felt hopeless because of the first year of new school.
D. The young man always tried his best to help the people in trouble.

The sun is setting, brightening your kids’ faces as they play in the waves. You reach for your phone for this
perfect moment. But before you do, here’s a bit of surprising science: Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep
memory as you think.
Taking too many pictures could actually harm the brain’s ability to keep memories, says Elizabeth Loftus, a
psychology professor at the University of California, Irvine. So we get the photo but kind of lose the memory.
Photos may outsource memories. It works in two ways: We either shake off the responsibility of remembering
moments when taking pictures, or we’re so distracted (分心的) by the process that we miss the moment altogether.
The first explanation is the loss of memory. People know that their camera is recording that moment, so they
don’t try to remember. Similarly, if you write down someone’s phone number, you’re less likely to remember it
offhand because your brain tells you there’s just no need. That’s all well and good—until that piece of paper goes
missing.
The other is distraction. We’re distracted by the process of taking a photo—how we hold our phone,
composing the photo, such as smiling faces, the background to our liking and clear image, all of which uses up our
attention that could otherwise help us memorize.
However, taking photos can benefit memory—when done mindfully. While taking a photo may be distracting,
the act of preparation by focusing on visual (视觉的) details around has some upsides.
When people take the time to zoom in (拉近镜头) on specific things, memories become strengthened.
Another benefit is that we recall moments more accurately with the photos. Memory has been reshaped with
the help of new information and new experiences. Thus, photos or videos help us recall moments as if they really
happened.
第5页/共9页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司Memories die away without a visual record backing them up. Therefore, a photo is an excellent tool to help
remember when done purposefully, which is worth exploring further.
27. What does Professor Elizabeth Loftus think of taking too many photos?
A. It can benefit our memories.
B. It could be harmful to keep memories.
C. It could be helpful to recall the perfect moment.
D. It will use up our attention to remember the beautiful moments.
28. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Memories will disappear when we back up a visual record.
B. We may not pay full attention to the moment when taking pictures.
C. Take photos if you want to get new information or new experiences.
D. It is useless to remember someone’s phone number by writing it down.
29. Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?
A. Photography or Memories
B. Fewer Photos, More Memories
C. Photography Does Good to Memories
D. Remember the Moment and Take Photos Properly
D
In the past decade, the use of social media has grown in a way that no one could have guessed. It has turned
some teenagers into celebrities (名人) and turned the famous into the infamous, overnight.
A key feature (特征) of social media, however, is its volatility. Trends (趋向，动向) come and go,
disappearing almost as quickly as they appeared.
Short video apps such as TikTok and its Chinese equivalent (对应词) Douyin, took the world by storm.
TikTok was once ranked 8th on Apple’s App Store, and Douyin had more than 300 million domestic monthly active
users.
Why are these short videos, which are rarely (罕有) longer than a few minutes, so popular? Jiang Yige,
Singapore-based analyst at FengHe Fund Management, has a theory. “Short videos are just right to fill in the little
gaps in our busy schedules,” he told CNBC.
These videos, apart from being very convenient, are important to teenagers because they allow them to express
themselves, according to Teen Vogue.
Liza Koshy, a user of the US app Musical, who has over 2 million followers, said, “The sense of community
that users of short video apps get is another appealing (有吸引力的) feature.”

学科网（北京）股份有限公司Live streaming (直播) is a feature of our social media life that now seems as, natural as sunrise. It’s a pretty
neat idea: You can watch anyone, anywhere, live? However, China has taken live streaming to a whole new level.
In China, millions of viewers monthly watch a live streaming video. Forbes thought that a number of factors had
led to the popularity of the live streaming. Among them is viewers’ ability to interact with unknown names.
However, the quick development of social media may be having side effects too. Fake news is one serious
problem it causes. Materials shared on these platforms are often not checked for accuracy (准确，精确). The most
basic content (内容) can be false and can mislead users one way or another. We use social media all the time, which
doesn’t mean that we understand the influence it is having on us. We should be mindful of both the time we spend
on it and its powerful effect on our minds.
30. What does the underlined word “volatility” in Paragraph 2 possibly mean?
A. Being changeable. B. Being valuable.
C. Being comfortable. D. Being international.
31. According to Liza Koshy, why are short video apps very popular?
A. They are very convenient.
B. They help people kill time.
C. They provide a sense of community.
D. They allow people to express themselves.
32. What do we know about social media?
A. Live streaming is the most popular way of our social media life.
B. People can’t communicate with each other without social media.
C. There is still much room for social media to make improvement.
D. Taking short videos is the best way for teenagers to express themselves.
33. What does the writer want to tell us in the passage?
A. Short video apps will take the world by storm in the future.
B. Social media can help you turn into celebrities very quickly.
C. People can share any interesting materials on the platforms without checking.
D. It’s wise to think over both the time and the effect when we use social media.

阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
I’m no literary Luddite (反对新技术的人). I bought an iPad with my first paycheck from my first full-time
job after graduating from college. But after two years of reading occasionally on the device, I gave it away to my
第7页/共9页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司brother. It just wasn’t the right reading experience for me.
Technology lovers choose e-readers over books because e-readers are more convenient. They’re right. It is
objectively easier to carry a 7oz (盎司) tablet with thousands and thousands of books at your fingertips than it is to
carry five books in your bag, which is exactly what I did on vacation.
But I don’t read for convenience. I read to learn more about the world and myself. I have made friends by
seeing a book cover in a cafe and noticing that it was the same title that I was reading. I can trace my life by the
books that have been my companions. When I open an old book and come across my previously scribbled notes —
shaky ones when I’ve been reading on the subway, covered in sand if I read it at the beach, next to a train ticket if I
was traveling — I am able to add an extra level of personal depth and experience to the story I am about to reread.
It’s just not enough to simply consuming the story, which is what e-readers are great for.
When I read paper books, I hold onto them for long periods of time. I just purchased a new bookshelf specially
for my “to be read” pile. Once in a while, I go through the process of deciding which books to donate (捐赠), but
usually the idea of parting with a book feels like giving away a part of my soul (灵魂).
Physical books may not be the most efficient medium, but they are the most meaningful. So keep your Kindle,
by all means. But I’ll be happy hoarding (贮存，聚藏) with my library.
