   Brenda Bongos was a happy, artistic girl. She had one big ambition—to play the drums in a band. But one big obstacle lay in her way. To be good enough to play in a band, Brenda had to practice a lot, but she lived next-door to a lot of old people. Many of them are sick. She knew that the sound of beating drums would really get on their nerves. So, she had tried playing in the strangest places: a basement, a kitchen, and even in a shower. But there was always someone it would annoy.

   One day, while watching a science documentary on TV, she heard that sound cannot travel in space, because there's no air. At that moment, Brenda Bongos decided to become a sort of musical astronaut.

    With the help of a lot of time, books and work, Brenda built a space bubble. This was a big glass ball connected to a machine which sucked out all the air inside. All that would be left inside was a drum kit（成套设备） and a chair. Brenda got into the space suit she had made, entered the bubble, turned on the machine, and played those drums like a wild child.

    It wasn't long before Brenda Bongos became very famous. Many people came to see her play in her space bubble. Shortly afterwards she came out of the bubble and started giving concerts. Her fame spread so much that the government suggested that she be part of a unique space journey. Finally, Brenda was a real musical astronaut, and had gone far beyond her first ambition of playing drums in a band.

    Years later, when asked how she had achieved all this, she thought for a moment, and said: ''If those old people next-door hadn't mattered so much to me, I wouldn't have found a solution, and none of this would have ever happened.''

24. Why did Brenda try to play in the strangest places?

   A. Because she didn't want others to hear her play.

   B. Because she didn't want to disturb others.

   C. Because she didn't have a large house.

   D. Because she liked to play in strange places.

25. Brenda became famous because _______ .

   A. she made a space suit               B. she became a real musical astronaut

   C. she played drums in her space bubble  D. she played drums in a band

26. Which of the following can be used to describe Brenda?

   A. kind, hardworking and clever           B. brave, kind and hardworking

   C. lovely, brave and kind                 D. nervous, kind and clever

27. We can draw a conclusion from the passage that: " _______".

The average British 22 year-old has more than 1,000 online friends on sites like Facebook, compared to those in their fifties who have fewer than 20, according to a new study.

The “Facebook generation gap” has been highlighted in a new piece of research which shows that the average 22 year-old claims to have 1,000 or more friends on sites like Facebook.

People in their twenties have more than 50 times as many digital friends as those who are over 50 years old, despite the popularity of sites like Facebook with the older generations, says a study conducted by consumer research group Intersperience.

The news comes during the same week Facebook's second-in command, Sheryl Sandberg, is visiting the UK to deliver a speech at the London School of Economics.

Facebook's chief operating officer is going to speak about how the social web has transformed people's friendships and relationships.

The survey found that there was a clear link between people's age and the number of online friends they have. The researchers found that those aged 13 to 16, have an average of 450 friends on social networks, with girls having slightly more friends that boys. People in their thirties tend to have between 100 and 200 friends, while those in their forties have between 50 and 100.

However, those using sites such as Facebook over the age of 50, tended to have 20 or less friends. The oldest person surveyed was 70 years old.

Paul Hudson, Intersperience's chief executive, said: "Our research underlines fundamental (根本的)changes taking place in British society as a result of finally entering the digital age. Half of the UK population are on Facebook now. In a social media context, a 'friend' means something different to a 20 year old than to a 50 year old."

He added: “Social networking activity is just one example of how different groups are adapting to the digital age at different paces. In this case, age is the determining factor - however in other instances it is not.”

28. Which is the determining factor in social networking activity?

A．Gender    B．Age   C．Relationship   D．Pace

29．What can we learn from the survey?

A．The older a person is, the less online friends he may have

B．Girls have a lot more friends than boys

C．People in their thirties tend to have between 50 and 100 friends

D．The link between people’s age and the number of online friends they have is not clear

30．According to the passage, the following statements are True except        .

A．The oldest people surveyed is 70

B．Paul Hudson will deliver a speech at the London School of Economics

C．Different groups are adapting to the digital age at different paces

D．Facebook is popular in UK now

31．What’s the main idea of the passage?

A．Social networking activity  B．The digital age

C．Facebook generation gap         D．Changes taking place in British society

Following Shanghai, Beijing is implementing garbage sorting in more than 200 communities and trying to get more people involved by making the system smarter.

One community located in Desheng Street in downtown Beijing has been exploring garbage sorting for a decade. Now it’s introducing artificial intelligence into its waste management system.

Community service staff Li Zhenbo has been involved in the huge project for years.

“We tried at first to separate kitchen waste from other types, and we also invited supervisors to help people sort out garbage. But the effect was limited. Since last year,, we have been developing the smart system. In June, we even installed little cameras in 16 sets of bins in this community, allowing us to better identify and monitor people’s sorting behavior,” said Li.

However, not every face can be recognized by the smart dustbin until you register for the system. Once registration is completed, users will scan a QR code on the bin, which then opens it up to allow for garbage disposal.

Li said now over half of the people living in this community have registered for the intelligent system, and his team is encouraging more people to join. But Li admits challenges exist in the process.

“There was a general lack of public awareness in the beginning,” Li added. “We established this green life space in 2016, trying to teach people, especially children, basic things about garbage, and why and how the classification works.”

With more than 21 million people, Beijing produces 26,000 tons of household waste a day. Sixty percent of the city is expected to implement garbage sorting by the end of this year, and 90 percent by 2020.

32．Earlier garbage-sorting in Desheng Street was         .

A. creative and innovative                 B. systematic and comprehensive

C. smart and intelligent                   D. limited and primitive

33．To guarantee the efficiency of the intelligent dustbin, people will have to _________.

A. know how the system works             B. register for the system

C. apply for a QR code                    D, identify different kinds of garbage

34．The underlined word “implementing” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to “__________”.

A. carrying out                          B. putting up

C. applying to                            D. taking down   

35．What does the passage mainly talk about?

A．There are many problems to solve in the garbage-sorting project.

B. Beijing is promoting people’s awareness of garbage-sorting.

C. Beijing is trying to encourage more people to sort garbage with the help of AI.

D. Activities are organized in Beijing to help its residents to sort garbage correctly..

Celebrate and acknowledge each small victory along the way to stay mentally engaged.

Confidence mainly relies on your attitude. Setbacks and mistakes aren’t indicators (提示)of failures. ____40______. That can serve you in the future as you continue to grow and evolve in both business and life.

1. Form a good habit.
2. Identify the root of the problem.
3. Instead, they’re simply valuable lessons.
