No Time
Fifteen-year-old Chris waved her hand in dance pose with joy to show off her new painting to her mom. Her
mom spoke quickly, "Oh, honey, I am busy with an important talk. I will see it later. "
She frowned（皱眉）and turned to her dad. "Dad, see what I have done, " Chris said aloud in a thrilling
voice. Her dad turned around while putting on his coat, and showed his thumbs up! Immediately, blowing her two
cheeks, Chris complained, "Dad, you haven't seen it yet. "
He smiled at her saying, "No time, baby. I will see it later. "
Her brother was only two years elder than her. He was always busy in his own dream land! She didn't feel like
wasting her time trying to show him the painting.
Chris stood there for a few seconds, and then stormed off to her own bedroom. She threw the paper on the
table, banged the door and dropped herself on her bed. Looking up to the ceiling, she wove her anger net. "Why is
everybody so busy?" As if every single person on this earth is busy in their own work and no one has time to share
a single moment with her! Her own family members were also no exception.
When her mom called her for dinner, she came late on purpose. She kept silent, and didn't look at anyone. Her
mom was surprised to see the unusual behavior. Softly she asked, "Honey, are you OK? Did I do something
wrong?" Chris was so angry that she ran away to her room.Next day, when Chris came back home, being tired of continuous work, she straight away went to her
bedroom. When she turned on the light, she surprisingly found her oil painting was beautifully framed and put up
on the wall. Just below the painting, it was written "We are so proud of you Chris, our little angel!"
Chris was so happy that she hugged her mom tightly. Her mom said, "Honey! I am so sorry, dear! We would
never say 'no time' for anything in future, whether big or small. Go it?" She kissed her mom on the cheek and said,
"Yes, mama, got it. You are my sweet mom!"

To achieve greater success, we must build good habits. James Clear gives advice on how to create better habits
in his book, Atomic Habits.
According to James Clear, the process of building a habit can be divided into four steps:cue（提示）, desire,
response, and reward. The cue causes a desire, the desire produces a response and the response provides a reward.
For example, a phone buzzes when a message comes in, the buzz will arouse you desire to know what's in the
message, the desire attracts you to give response by grabbing the phone and then reading the message, and then you
know what's in the message, which is the reward. Over time, the brain connects the cue with the reward, so you
reach for the phone once it buzzes, and now the habit is formed.
.
James Clear also presents four fundamental laws to build good habits
First, make it obvious. Habits are automatic because our brains pick up cues and take action without thinking.
To start a new habit, you can make your cues more obvious. To become more aware of them, you can write down
your habits on a habit scorecard. Your plan of good habits can be marked with specific time or location.
Second, make it attractive. Desires differ from person to person but they encourage the development of every
habit. We take action only when we expect it to produce a reward. The more useful the action is, the more we'll
repeat it, until it becomes a habit that we do automatically. Thus, to form good habits, we need to make them moreattractive by connecting these habits with rewards and positive feelings.
Third, make it easy. The response is the action you perform. If an action requires more effort than you are
willing to put in, you won't take it. It also depends on your ability. A habit can be formed only when you are able to
do it. The best way to build a habit is to practice it, and the best way to start practicing is to make it easy.
Finally, make it satisfying. Give yourself a reward when you complete your habit. Rewards can not only
satisfy your desire but also tell you which actions are worth keeping. Feelings of satisfaction can help your brain
tell useful actions from useless ones.
The key to creating good habits is to understand these fundamental laws. Every goal is sure to fail if it goes
against human nature.
28. Of the following steps, which one is the "response"?
A. You grab the phone. B. You hear the phone buzz.
C. You want to know the message. D. You know what is in the message.
29. According to the passage, James Clear believes that
A. to build a good habit, you can make it challenging
B. the key to creating good habits is to make them easy
C. desires are necessary for the development of good habits
D. the more rewards you are given, the faster you'll form a habit
30. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?
A. The Ways of Building Good Habits B. The Influence of Good Habits on Life
C. The Reasons of Building Good Habits D. The Difficulties of Forming Good Habits
D
Many students often choose to listen to music while doing their homework or studying for exams. But is
listening to music a smart choice for students who want to improve their learning?
Indeed, music makes life better in so many ways. It elevates(振奋) mood, reduces stress and eases pain. Music
is heart-healthy, because it can reduce blood pressure and heart rate. It also connects us with others and deepens
social relationships. Music can even enhance our enjoyment of challenging activities.But the effect of music on cognitive tasks appears not to be “one-size-fits-all”. A new study by Manuel
Gonzalez of Baruch College and John Aiello of Rutgers University suggests that for some students, listening to
music while learning is a wise strategy, but for others, it is not.
Whether or not listening to music will benefit your mental work depends on your personality—specifically, on
your need for external stimulation(外部刺激). People with a high requirement for external stimulation tend to get
bored easily. They often do worse when listening to music while engaging in a mental task, while people with a low
need for external stimulation, on the other hand, tend to improve their mental performance with music.
Moreover, before students decide to put on their earphones, though, they should carefully consider their
musical selection. Complexity(复杂性) of the music seems to promote excitement, and it is suggested that a
moderate level of excitement produces ideal performance. When there is too little or too much excitement,
performance drops. Thus, the benefits of music for those with a low need for external stimulation could decrease or
even disappear with the added complexity of music.
Similarly, the rise in the complexity of a cognitive task might also reduce or wipe out the benefit of music.
With a highly challenging cognitive task, even those with a low need for external stimulation may fail to show such
an effect with music.
The study brings to our notice that only with the right personality, music and task can the presence of music
significantly improve cognitive functioning. So next time when you want to switch on the music before you study,
please think twice.
31. Why is music good for heart health according to the passage?
A. Because it can make links among people.
B. Because it can reduce stress and ease pain.
C. Because it can improve workout staying power.
D. Because it can reduce blood pressure and heart rate.
32. The underlined word “cognitive” in Paragraph 3 is similar to “ ________________”.
A. mental B. active C. difficult D. important
33. The author writes this passage to tell students about ____________.
A. the effectiveness of listening to music while studying
B. the disadvantages of listening to music while studying
C. the factors about how music affects their mental performance
D. the methods of how to choose right music to improve their learning
八、阅读短文, 根据短文内容回答问题。,
Throughout history most masks are made to change identity. Medical masks, on the other hand, are
meant to protect. Here is a brief history of their evolution.
17th century
Doctors wore a uniform that included a headdress with a long, pointed beak filled with aromatics(芳香料) to
stop bad smell and fight against contagion(传染) carried by bad air. The historical mask is on show in a museum in
Berlin.
19th century
In an article in Scientific American in 1878, A. J. Jessup, a New York physician, recommended cotton masks
to limit contagion during epidemics (widespread of a disease). However, his idea did not catch on.
Early 20th century
Researchers published the first study encouraging the use of medical masks in 1897, but they were uncommon
at the turn of the century.
In 1905, Chicago physician Alice Hamilton published an article in the Journal of the American Medical
Association. "A student in a large medical college in Chicago told me that when the doctor talked to others during
an operation, he could see a spray of saliva(唾液) coming from the mouth of the doctor," Alice Hamilton wrote,
"so masks should be worn by doctors and nurses in every operation."
During the 1918 global flu, medical workers usually wore masks to protect themselves, and many cities
required masks in public. In Seattle, streetcars required all riders to have masks.
In the 1920s, masks became standard in operating rooms. Over the next century, medical researchers went on
with experiment on designs and materials of masks.
Post-World WarⅡ
Because of the heavy air pollution, Britons had to wear "smog masks". As developed countries cleaned up
their pollution, smog and smog masks moved to developing countries. Mask models such as N95 and KN90
became highly popular.
As we can see, masks have been helping mankind for centuries. Wearing medical masks is widely believed to
be an easy but effective method to protect oneself from different kinds of harmful things.
34. Is the historical mask on show in a museum in Berlin?

36. When did masks become standard in operating rooms?
