A new study conducted at the University of Pennsylvania suggests that eating chocolate every day might actually be good for you. Researchers gave people different amounts of chocolate, from none at all to several servings, every day for six weeks and measured their blood pressure, body fat, and emotional condition. What they found may surprise you. It turns out that eating a small amount of chocolate every day is better than eating none at all! People who ate a small amount of chocolate regularly had lower blood pressure and reported feeling happier than people who didn’t eat any chocolate. Eating a lot of chocolate every day resulted in increased weight gain and higher blood pressure, but it actually had a positive impact on mood. The scientists were quick to point out that the chocolate under investigation was dark chocolate, which has less fat, less sugar, and fewer calories than milk chocolate. They also said that adding chocolate to one’s diet should be combined with a balanced diet and plenty of exercise. Although the researchers said that there is still a lot of work to be done in this field, the initial findings are no doubt great news for all you chocolate lovers out there! 5．B6．B7．A8．A【原文】I' m the director of the college. We’re planning on holding the opening ceremony on April 21st with a view to starting summer classes on June 15th. It's hard to say at this moment exactly how many students are likely to enroll for summer school, but there' s certainly been a lot of interest, especially after the series of adverts we did on the radio. We were confident those would be more effective than TV promotions as people tend to change channels during the breaks between programs. You can visit our website to get more information about entry fees. We' re hoping to attract some useful publicity at the opening ceremony, and our marketing director has been working very hard on this. We thought it was important to invite a famous writer to declare the college officially open. We’re pleased the writer Adam has agreed. We are thrilled to announce that the volleyballer Harry and the businessman James will give a short talk. The aim of the opening is to get local people to sign up for our practical subjects. We’re going to have local experts giving free classes here. Someone suggested we should have a new office in the city center to create interest, but it will cost a lot. 9．B10．C11．A12．C【原文】Ladies and gentlemen，we have finally found a way to make clothes that almost never need to be washed.Yes，that’s right!

Try the shirts for $75 each! Try the pants for $49 a pair! Try the socks for $29 a pair，available at these low prices for this week only. 13．A14．C15．B16．A【原文】Honorable judges, good morning! The topic of my speech today is “Virtual Conferences”. Sitting for hours before a computer screen, listening to a floating head, can be thrilling. And usually in virtual conferences, it’s hard for people to engage themselves in sharing knowledge. It lacks in-person interaction. Therefore, it’s easy to see why most people don’t love the idea of virtual conferences. However, virtual conferences, except breaking the limitations on time and space, have many other benefits. First, they’re easier on the environment. A recent review showed that the CO2 created by each researcher through conference travel ranged from 0.5 to 2 metric tons. In contrast, the carbon emissions of virtual conferences were less than 1% of that. Second, online conferences offer access to a larger and more diverse audience. The EGU General Assembly 2019 attracted just 16,200 people, while the online EGU General Assembly 2020 had over 26,000 users. Among other things, virtual conferences were born for specific social situations, such as the COVID-19 lockdown. A survey by Nature showed that 80% of their interviewees believed that some meetings should continue to be held virtually, even after the lockdown. 17．A18．C19．C20．B【原文】I’m here today to tell you about my career as a writer. I wrote my first novel in 1987. I called it Sunset. However, it didn’t come out until 1996, four years after my first published novel. After school, I went to university where I studied law. However, I never practiced law. I was lucky enough to get a holiday job on a local newspaper as a reporter, and I stayed there. This, of course, gave me lots of opportunities to improve my writing skills. I had my first novel published during that period. It was called Tango. It wasn’t a great success, but it gave me useful contacts in the publishing world. My second novel, The Ballet Dancer, was much more successful. It even won a prize for new novelists. Since then, I’ve written three more novels and have also had a couple of collections of short stories published. At present, I’m experimenting with writing a play — The List. I feel I’m learning a great deal from this work … 21．C22．A23．B24．C【原文】Mrs White heard her new neighbor who’s a doctor would come and move into his new house next to hers, but she had never seen him. One day when she came back, she saw a man wearing a brown hat and dark glasses carrying a ladder on the shoulder. The man put the ladder against the window of the new house and went up to break into the window. Mrs White said to herself, “Thief, it is a thief.” She rang up the police at once and soon two policemen appeared in front of the house. When the man was told to hand in everything he had stolen, he looked greatly surprised. It was then that he understood the reason why the policemen came. He said with a smile, “I can’t find my key. But it’s really my new house.” 25．C26．B27．C28．C【原文】It was my 21st birthday and I wanted to have an unforgettable night. So I arranged to have a party at this famous hotel. It was a warm evening in the middle of August, but because it was raining heavily outside we had to stay in the hotel all night. There were a lot of guests at the party and the room was packed. I was dancing when I saw the smoke. People began to panic, but there were so many of us that we couldn't get out quickly. Soon the room was full of smoke. I managed to open a window and get out of the burning building. The fire fighters arrived shortly after, but it took a long time for them to put out the fire. Luckily, all the guests got out in time. Some of them had to go to hospital because of burns and breathing problems. Fortunately, the fire fighters had put out the fire before it spread to the rest of the hotel. However, the room where the party was held was completely destroyed. I was told later that it was because the building had been struck by lightning. Can you believe it. 29．C30．A31．B【原文】Climate change has pushed scientists and inventors to think of new ways that our public transport systems will work, and to figure out how to make that change without causing too much inconvenience to people's daily life. Governments around the world are looking to reduce traffic in their major cities by putting a large amount of money into the public transport. This will involve persuading people to stop using cars that pollute the environment. In March 2020, Luxembourg became the first country to make its entire public transport system free. Germany is likely to follow in their footsteps. Other cities, such as Chicago in the United States, and Tallinn and Estonia run free services too. But a lot of public transport systems are also polluting. Scientists are looking at electric vehicles such as buses and taxis. London started running electric buses in July 2019, and now it has over 200 electric buses. In January 2020, Glasgow, which is the largest city in Scotland, also started using them. It has also introduced 70 charging points for electric vehicles. There are 2,500 electric cars in Glasgow at present, but the council believes that the number will increase by a factor of 10 by 2025. 32．B33．C34．A35．C【原文】W: At exam time it is important to sleep well. Today we have Doctor Baker with us in the studio and he is going to give us five top tips for getting a good night’s sleep. Welcome to the show, Doctor Baker.M: Thank you. It’s great to be here. Let’s start with tip one. Don’t go to bed with the television on. Some people think they can sleep well with the TV on, but the noise and lights mean you don’t really sleep well, so turn it off!Tip two: Don’t think too much before bedtime. Do your hardest homework earlier in the evening. Do easier homework later. If your brain is too busy and full of ideas it takes longer to get to sleep.Tip three: Don’t play video games an hour before you go to sleep. You may get excited, they can make your brain too busy and active.Tip four: Turn off your cell phone when you go to bed. What is so important that it can’t wait until the morning? If possible, leave your phone in another room.Tip five: Play music if you like. But don’t play it too loud. Turn the sound down low.W: Thank you for the useful advice for our young listeners, Doctor. 36．C37．B38．B39．A【原文】W: I learned from a young age that the animal kingdom was an amazing place. I remember my teacher’s lessons on different creatures in different environments. Mrs. Keller always spoke with enthusiasm about the different tools that each animal had developed to survive. However, what interested me most was the animals that helped one another. Certain animals form a bond that benefits both of them. For instance, there's a type of fish that attaches itself to sharks. The fish actually ride on the sharks as they go. They even eat the remaining food from the shark’s meals. In return, when the shark isn’t giving them a free meal, they clean the shark. The small fish eat away anything that would cause an infection in the shark. Isn’t that amazing? What’s even more amazing is that some animals have adapted to creating a bond with humans too. The “honey guide” is a bird that will lead humans to the insects that produce honey. The birds have learned to change their call when they find the insects. They do this specifically to warn humans in the area. Why, you ask? It’s because the humans use smoke to make the insects calm down. The smoke sends the insects away from protecting the honey. This allows the birds to get the first taste of the honey as a reward. Facts like this are what make me love nature so much.
