“Are you listening, Simon?” the teacher asked. It was a very usual question.
Simon never listened or tried hard in class. Talking was much better. “ You'll learn
something if you listen,” Mrs Jacobs said.
After school, Simon started to feel that his throat(喉咙)really hurt. The next morning, when
he opened his mouth to say “Good morning”, nothing came out. He lost his voice.
When he got to school, Simon didn’t say anything. By the time the class started almost
everyone was looking at him strangely.
Penny raised her hand. “Mrs Jacobs, why isn’t Simon talking?”
“I’m sick. I can’t talk,” Simon wrote it down.
Simon sat in class. He was so bored because he couldn’t talk to his friends. He had nothing
to do, so he decided to pay attention to what the teacher said.
You know what? That night he could do his homework quickly so that he got more TV
time. And he could also play one hour before the sleeping time.
Several days later, Simon’s voice came back, but he didn’t say anything like before. He
listened and raised his hand to speak. What a difference that one day made!

Traditionally, baby boys are dressed in blue and baby girls are dressed in pink. We are
taught this as children.
But as you grow up, this idea doesn’t mean much anymore. Take me, for example, I often
wear pink or purple shirts. In fact, I’m wearing a pink shirt while I write this story!
While children might make fun of a boy wearing a pink shirt, I believe there really are no
rules about what colors a man or woman can wear. That’s how it is in Australia and I’ve found
it to be the case in China as well. There are more and more people who are quite happy to
wear lots of creative things. Some men in China and Australia pay as much attention to their
appearance as women.
But if you think the idea of boys wearing pink is something new, think again. It isn’t
original at all. Kassia St Clair, the writer of The Secret Lives of Color, said it was very
different in the 19th century. She explains that pink was a color worn by men in the military(军
队). Blue, she says, was the color for girls.
Somehow, over the following 100 years, this has changed a lot. But whatever the story is
today, don’t let it stop you from wearing whatever color you want!
26. Baby boys typically wear ______ clothes.
A. pink
B. purple
C. blue
D. yellow
27. The writer might be ______ .
A. a woman
B. a man
C. a Chinese person
D. a soldier
28. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 means ______ .
A. children can wear clothes in many different colors .
B. pink is only for girls.
C. boys cannot wear colorful clothes.
D. people can wear whatever colors they like.
29. Paragraph 4 explains that ______ .
A. girls used to wear pink clothes.
B. boys wore pink clothes in the past.
C. popular colors have changed over time.
D. boys used to wear blue clothes.
30. What’s the writer’s opinion?
A. There are no rules for what colors we should wear.
B. It’s uncommon for boys to wear pink clothes.
C. Men should act differently from women.
D. The difference between boys and girls is important.

Stand-up comedy is becoming popular among the young in China. One person, man or
woman, stands on stage and tells funny stories, or funny people or funny things that happened
to them. The performers will try their best to make people laugh. Stand-up comedy is different
from other forms of acting. An actor usually has a script(剧本)to fall back on and a team of
other actors to rely on.
Unlike an actor, a stand-up performer is showing himself or herself but not creating
characters. A stand-up performer fails or succeeds depending on his or her own talent. It usually
takes days or even weeks of hard work to make people laugh for a few minutes.
Stand-up comedy has come a long way in the West, but it is a new art form in China.
Today the most popular stand-up comedy show in China is Rock & Roast(《脱口秀大会》). All
of its three seasons were popular, especially the third season. When the third season came out
last summer, it took the Internet by storm and soon became one of the hottest TV shows in
China. The show is such a big success that it has opened a new door to the golden age of
stand-up comedy. More and more young people have begun watching stand-up comedy, and some
even start doing it part-time. They say it’s a great way to relax.
31. What’s the purpose of stand-up comedy?
A. To share ideas.
B. To make fun of people.
C. To introduce a new art form.
D. To bring people laughter
32. How are stand-up comedy performers different from actors?
A. They create characters.
B. They must follow the scripts.
C. Their success is much easier.
D. Their success depends on their own talent.
33. What does the writer think of Rock & Roast??
A. It’s very special.
B. It’s very successful.
C. It’s very important.
D. It’s very educational.
34. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Stand-up comedy has come a long way in the West.
B. Watching stand-up comedy is a great way to relax.
C. The third season of Rock & Roast is the most popular.
D. More and more young girls like watching stand-up comedy.
35. Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?
