The Strength of Friendship
Once upon a time, in a neighbourhood, there were four teenagers named Sarah, Mark, Maya, and Alex. They
had been best friends since childhood, sharing laughter, dreams, and adventures together.
Unluckily, Sarah had a serious illness at the age of 16. When she heard the news, she was shocked. The news
shook her and her friends, but it also made them build a powerful strong connection of support among them.
As Sarah was in hospital, her friends went there to comfort (安慰) her and cheer her up. Even when Sarah lost
her temper and said unpleasant words to them, her friends always found ways to make her happy and encouraged
her to stay positive (积极的).
Meanwhile, the experience also made Sarah’s friends different. They learned the true meaning of
understanding, caring, and the importance of being there for someone in need. Each of them discovered their ways
of supporting Sarah, whether it was through lending a listening ear, telling her interesting stories or looking after
her.
During these days, the connection between Sarah and her friends grew stronger as they experienced the ups
and downs together. They celebrated small victories, shared joyful moments, and comforted one another during
hard times. Their firm friendship became a source of hope and strength for Sarah on her difficult journey.
Finally, Sarah’s health started to improve, and she landed on the path of recovery (恢复健康). Her friends

FOMO
Everybody knows how important it is for students to get a good night’s sleep every night. You aren’t able to do
your best and keep up with all of your responsibilities unless you sleep well. I’m sure you already know that you
should go to bed at a reasonable hour. Most experts agree that the best number of hours is eight, and this has been
accepted as common sense for as long as I can remember. Nowadays, experts at the National Sleep Foundation
suggest that people sleep between seven and nine hours each night. However, I was young once and I know that
most of you get much less sleep than that—and in some cases it will be influencing your schoolwork.
I read an interesting article in a teachers’ magazine recently. They did a study of 848 students in Wales.
Worryingly, the results showed that teenagers are facing a new problem. They may go to bed and get up at proper
times but a growing number are waking up in the middle of the night, not to use the bathroom or have a snack but
because of a new phenomenon (现象): FOMO—fear of missing out!
According to the article, schoolchildren are painful because of a growing trend (趋势) to wake up during the
night to check social media. Afraid of missing a comment (评论) or opportunity to take part in a conversation,
teenagers are waking at all times of the night, going online and getting involved. They are always eager to interact
(互动) with others.
Experts are worried about this growing trend and the report shows some worrying statistics (统计数据) that
I’d like to share with you:
第5页/共10页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司23% of 12 to 15-year-olds wake up nearly every night to use social media. Another 15% wake up at night once
a week for the same reason.
One in three students are always tired and unable to provide their best effort.
Students who use social media during the night are more likely to have both depression (抑郁) and anxiety.
So, I’d like to ask you to be responsible when it comes to social media. Be brave! Switch off your devices (设
备) at night. The world won’t end and your social media will be waiting to greet you in the morning!
.
27 Research shows that schoolchildren are tired because they ________.
A. are getting up too early in the morning
B. are waking up in the middle of the night
.
C use the bathroom too long and go to bed late
D. are waiting to greet teachers in the morning
28. Fear of Missing Out is ________.
A. an emotional need to go out with families all the time
B. anxiety about not having the latest technology and device
C. a device that is used to help students fall asleep quickly
D. a fear of missing opportunities for interaction on social media
29. Students who use social media during the night ________.
A. have a higher risk of depression and anxiety
B. worry about the growing social problems
C. should read articles about how to stay asleep
D. do well in exams but behave badly at school

Me and My Brain
We all know that meaningful changes happen in our bodies during adolescence (青春期), but have you ever
stopped to wonder what’s actually going on inside our brains during this time?
To paint a clear picture, we should first know about ourselves with the different parts of the brain. Did you
know, for example, that our brains are made up of around 100 billion nerve cells (神经细胞) called neurons (神经
元)? And coming from these neurons are several branch-like structures for sending and receiving electrical signals?
Every time we do or think anything, a signal is sent. The signal travels down a long structure called the axon (轴突)
and, at the end, it passes across small gaps called synapses (神经元的突触) to the dendrites (树突) of another
neuron, which receive the signal. In this way, messages are sent across our neural network.
Our brain structure changes greatly as we grow up. Newborn babies have almost all their neurons but few
第6页/共10页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司connections between them, which is why they can’t do very much. After a few months however, the number of
connections increases quickly, which in turn helps small kids master new skills such as walking and talking. Most
brain development is completed in the first few years, but we now know that our brains continue to develop
throughout our lives and perhaps the most surprising time of change and development is during adolescence.
During this period of reorganization, the brain notices a sudden increase in neurons not dissimilar to a plant
growing uncontrollably in spring. Just as we cut back a plant to make it stronger and healthier, we cut back our
brains. The connections that are used become stronger, whereas those which aren’t used dry and die. So, the more
often an action or thought is activated, the stronger the connections become between the neurons, which in turn
makes the part of the brain being used stronger. This explains why the more you do something, the better you
become at it, reinforcing the old saying “practice makes perfect”. In fact, the teenage brain provides conditions
for perfecting skills such as playing a musical instrument, speaking another language, or learning a difficult
computer game. It could be argued that teenagers decide the development of their own grey matter through the
activities they take part in and their experiences.
It may also be unsurprising to many to learn that the last part of the adolescent brain to develop is the frontal
cortex (额皮质), responsible for self-control, problem solving and decision making. So, long before teens are good
at abstract thinking (抽象思维) and logical decision making, they depend on the emotional center of the brain to
make choices and think. So perhaps unpredictable, uncertain, risk taking teenage behaviors, often put down to
hormones (荷尔蒙), may actually have more to do with what’s going on inside our brain.
30. What do we learn about the structure of the brain?
A. All neurons are activated when we think.
B. The structure of a brain cell is compared to a tree.
C. Neurons allow a message to travel around the brain.
D. The structure of a brain changes when a message is sent.
31. What does Paragraph 3 tell us?
A. A decision helps babies learn how to speak.
B. Most changes in brain happen after adulthood.
C. The process of brain development is continuous.
D. Babies are born with the ability to do anything.
32. The word “reinforcing” in Paragraph 4 probably means “_________”.
A. judging B. challenging C. supporting D. limiting
33. The writer agrees that teenagers ________.
A. are cleverer than they used to be when they study their brains
第7页/共10页

C. want to learn more about the changes in their brains and bodies
D. can benefit from understanding the changes that happen in their brains

Modern Technology Helps Protect Disappearing Art, Culture in China
Traditional Chinese art and culture are finding new life on the Internet thanks to the effort to protect the
country’s history for a new generation. The project, called ChinaVine, is a collaboration (合作) among the United
States and China. Through ChinaVine, the group is sharing Chinese customs and culture using modern technology.
“Many Chinese traditions are centered in the countryside, but people are moving to cities as China becomes an
economic powerhouse (经济强国),” explained Kristin Congdon. Folk traditions are changing or being lost because
people move to the cities for work. The Chinese view their traditional culture as an important part of China’s
history. “The traditions that have been practiced for generations should be protected.” said Congdon.
To help people learn about China’s cultural heritage (遗产), ChinaVine’s designed a website. Students and
professors have explored Chinese villages. They took descriptions and pictures of disappearing art forms for the
project. They’ve visited some towns that seldom see visitors, and recorded documentaries (纪录片) of locals as
they create their art and share stories of their culture on the website.
Batchler, who is studying Piano and Language, joined the ChinaVine team, said he made a life-changing first
trip to Beijing in January to research traditional Chinese music for ChinaVine. During the trip, Batchler had the
opportunity to share one of his performances from the China Conservatory (音乐学院) of Music, where he will
return to study music after he graduates from UCF in May.
“ChinaVine inspired me,” Batchler said. “The project is all about people from outside the culture, like me,
who come inside to describe it. I have explored the Chinese villages for nearly six years. We travelled around 30
villages and made many resources. ChinaVine hopes anyone who has an interest in China can contribute (做贡献)
to the project using social media.”
All the website’s materials are open resources, and it means that its texts, photographs, videos, and other
media can be freely used by teachers and learners. “We want to continue to add resources to the website and
develop our partnerships in China so that the English-speaking world can learn more about the Chinese,” said
Congdon.
