Leia was fresh out of college when she began working as a member of a business-development team at a mid- size tech company. Though her skills had earned her the job, she was the youngest person in the team. “Everybody else was pretty much twice my age,” she says. “I heard about comments being made behind my back. There were a couple of times when my superiors referred to my age right in front of me, saying I was too young, ‘What does a 23- year-old know about these things?’”
Leia tried to change things by altering her appearance at work. “I changed the way I dressed. I tried to dress older, more ‘ladylike’. I changed my mannerisms and tried to act older,” she says. “It worked, to an extent.” The comments about her age and perceived ( 认定的 ) inexperience lessened, but Leia says she still felt like her growth potential was limited. She left the company soon after.
What Leia experienced was ageism traditionally seen as something only older people face. For instance, older workers might be judged based on assumptions that they won’t fit into a progressive office dynamics or learn technology as quickly. A US study showed that nearly two-thirds of workers aged 45 and older had seen or experienced age discrimination. But younger workers face age discrimination, too. In fact, new research shows it may actually be the youngest team members who are bearing the impact of workplace ageism right now.
Leia says removing ageism entirely will ultimately require a fundamental change to corporate culture, which has long tied seniority ( 资历 ) to skill. “We prize years of experience a little too much, and I don’t think years of experience and skill are necessarily related,” she says. “Steve Jobs was 21 when he founded Apple. We don’t know how much younger people actually have to contribute. Hopefully, more employers are realizing it.”
24.What was the main topic of Leia’s superiors about her?
A.Her job skills. B.Her young age.
C.Her cute appearance. D.Her family background.
25.Why didn’t Leia stay any longer at the company?
A.She failed to dress more lady-like.
B.She received more negative comments.
C.She felt pressure from her work to an extent.
D.She wanted more space for her growth potential.
26.Which statement agrees with the US study the most?
A.Only older people face age discrimination at work.
B.Young workers can’t fit into a progressive office.
C.Older workers are very slow technology learners.
D.Young workers are seriously affected by ageism.
27.Why does Leia mention Steve Jobs?
A.To offer information about the Apple Company.
B.To tell about Steve Jobs’ unknown contribution.
C.To say that skill does not always come with age.
D.To show that skill alone matters to young people.
C
You can tell a lot about people’s general state of mind based on their social media feeds. Are they always tweeting about their biggest annoyances or posting pictures of particularly cute kitties? In a similar fashion, researchers are turning to Twitter for clues about the overall happiness of entire geographic communities.
What they’re finding is that regional variation in the use of common phrases produces predictions that don’t always reflect the local state of well-being. But removing from their analyses just three specific terms — good, love and LOL — greatly improves the accuracy of the methods.
We’re living in a crazy COVID-19 era. And now more than ever, we’re using social media to adapt to a new normal and reach out to the friends and family that we can’t meet face-to-face. Kokil Jaidka studies computational linguistics at the National University of Singapore. “But our words aren’t useful just to understand what we, as individuals, think and feel. They’re also useful clues about the community we live in. ”
One of the simpler methods that many scientists use to analyze the data involves correlating words with positive or negative emotions. But when those records are compared with phone surveys that assess regional well-being, Jaidka says, they don’t paint an accurate picture of the local Zeitgeist (时代精神).
Being able to get an accurate read on the mood of the population is no laughing matter. “That’s particularly important now, in the time of COVID, where we’re expecting a mental health crisis and we’re already seeing in survey data the largest decrease in subjective well-being in 10 years at least, if not ever. ”
To find out why, Jaidka and her team analyzed billions of tweets from around the United States. And they found that among the most frequently used terms on Twitter are LOL, love and good. And they actually throw the analysis off. Why the disconnect?
“Internet language is really a different beast than regular spoken language. We’ve adapted words from the English vocabulary to mean different things in different situations. ” says Jaidka. “Take, for example, LOL. I’ve tweeted the word LOL to express irony, annoyance and sometimes just pure surprise. When the methods for measuring LOL as a marker of happiness were created in the 1990s, it still meant laughing out loud. ”
“There are plenty of terms that are less misleading,” says Jaidka. “Our models tell us that words like excited, fun, great, opportunity, interesting, fantastic and those are better words for measuring subjective well-being. ”
28.The researchers turn to social media feeds to _______.
A.help with the analysis of people’s subjective well-being
B.locate the most frequently used words
C.prove the disconnect between language and emotions
D.make the prediction method more effective
29.In regular spoken language, which of the following is most likely to fill in the blank “Fantastic! _______”
A.How come he can afford such a luxury car?
B.I’ve left the book on the bus again.
C.A good movie, definitely worth seeing!
D.Why do I have to do the chores again?
30.How did Jaidka know the analysis wasn’t accurate?
A.It didn’t reflect the mood of the entire geographic community.
B.It didn’t match the assessment result of the phone surveys.
C.It didn’t consider the features of Internet language.
D.It didn’t take the regional variations into account.
31.Which of the following statements will Jaidka most probably agree with?
A.Face-to-face communication is needed to ensure happiness.
B.Internet use is to blame for the decrease in subjective well-being.
C.Internet language should be abandoned as a source of scientific analysis.
D.Less misleading words should be used in assessing subjective well-being.
D
On Wednesday, two things happened. In Syria, 80 people were killed by government airstrikes. Meanwhile, in Florida, Elon Musk’s SpaceX successfully launched and fired a sports car into space. Guess which story has dominated mainstream news sites?
The launch of Musk’s Falcon Heavy rocket, the most powerful ever launched by a private company, went off successfully. Musk sent his cherry-red Tesla roadster running toward Mars, launching “a new space age”. The event attracted phenomenal publicity and made the rocket launch a masterstroke of advertising for Tesla.
Meanwhile, in Syria, where hundreds of thousands of refugees(难民) may be forced to return to unsafe homes, a UN human rights coordinator for Syria said despondently(沮丧地) that he was no longer sure why he bothers to videotape the effects of bombing, since nobody ever pays attention. He wondered what level of violence it would take to make the world care.
There is, perhaps, no better way to appreciate the tragedy of 21st-century global inequality than by watching a billionaire spend $90m launching a $100,000 car into space.
Musk said he wanted to participate in a space race because “races are exciting” and that while strapping his car to a rocket may be “silly and fun … silly and fun things are important”. Thus, anyone who mentions the huge waste the project involves, or the various social uses to which these resources could be put, can be dismissed as a killjoy.
But one doesn’t have to hate fun to question the justification for pursuing a costly new space race at exactly this moment. If we examine the situation honestly, it becomes hard to defend a project like this.
A mission to Mars does indeed sound exciting, but it’s important to have our priorities straight. First, perhaps we could make it so that a child no longer dies of malaria every two minutes. Or we could try to address the level of poverty in Alabama which has become so extreme that the UN investigator did not believe it could occur in a first-world country. Perhaps when violence, poverty and disease are solved, then we can head for the stars.
Many might think that what Elon Musk chooses to do with his billions is Elon Musk’s business alone. If he wanted to spend all his money on medicine for children, that would be nice, but if he’d like to spend it making big explosions and sending his convertible on a million-mile space voyage, that’s his right.
But Musk is only rich enough to afford these money-consuming projects because we have allowed social inequalities to arise in the first place. If wealth were actually distributed fairly in this country, nobody would be in a position to fund his own private space program.
Elon Musk is right: silly and fun things are important. But some of them are an indefensible waste of resources. While there are still humanitarian crises such as that in Syria, nobody can justify vast spending on rocketry experiments.
32.Why does the writer mention the two pieces of news at the beginning of the passage?
A.To illustrate the inequality of wealth distribution and the consequent inequality of attention distribution.
B.To highlight the significance of SpaceX’s successful launch of a rocket and a car into space.
C.To appeal to the government for more attention to the air strikes and refugee crisis in Syria.
D.To find out which news dominated the mainstream news sites.
33.Why did the UN human rights coordinator for Syria feel disappointed?
A.Because nobody appreciated his work and all the efforts he made.
B.Because the violence in Syria is not serious enough to make the world care.
C.Because however hard he tried, nobody seemed to care about the situation in Syria.
D.Because he had great difficulty videotaping the effects of bombing.
34.What is implied in Paragraph 6 and 7?
A.The space project of SpaceX cost the government too much money.
B.It kills the fun to question the justification of the pursuit of space programs.
C.Space programs are a waste of money that cannot be justified.
D.Addressing problems of violence, poverty and diseases should be our top priority.
35.What does the writer mainly want to tell us?
A.We should pay equal attention to space projects and solving social problems.
B.No private companies should be allowed to spend money in rocketry experiments.
C.The money and resources used in space projects could have been used to deal with various social problems.
D.Elon Musk should be blamed for misleading the public.

If you’ve ever been bitten by a mosquito, you know how frustrating their bites can be. 36 , creating an itch (痒) that once you start scratching only seems to get worse. Why does a mosquito bite itch and what can we do?
Why does a mosquito bite itch?
When a mosquito bites you, it pierces (刺入) the skin using a special mouthpart to suck up blood and injects saliva (唾液) into your skin. Mosquitoes’ saliva has lots of proteins in it, some of which our body recognizes as foreign, and our immune cells spring into action to try to fight them. 37 . It’s actually the body’s response to the foreign mosquito protein. It is trying to fight. That’s why some people may only have a mild reaction to bites, while others, more sensitive to the foreign protein, react with large areas of swelling that are more painful.
What helps resist the urge to scratch?
“Don’t scratch” is the advice that most experts and health professionals give. As hard and sometimes unrealistic as it can sound, scratching inflames (发炎) the skin, and the inflammation makes the skin itch more. “ 38 ,” warned Daniel Markowski, technical adviser for the American Mosquito Control Association, adding that in extreme cases, people can scar (留下疤痕) themselves.
Instead, there are dozens of creams and sprays that promise itch relief as well as home remedy (疗法). Choose what’s right for you can often come down to trial and error. In general, all of the various anti-itch creams are very similar. There is no scientific evidence these remedies work, and they can come with their own side effects. 39 .

D.The bites will definitely cause severe allergies
E.The little red bumps swell up almost immediately
F.Scratching can cause secondary infections and prolong the discomfort

Nixon, 59 years old, was born and grew up in St. Petersburg. Each morning, he sits on a bench, watches the sunrise, and connects with 41 from all walks of life.
Eight years ago, he decided to begin each day from a bench with an impressive view of the St. Petersburg waterfront (圣彼得堡海滨), because it made him feel calm and 42 before starting his day.
About a year later, a woman stopped to say hello, and she said something that 43 Nixon’s view on his daily visit. She said, “Every morning when I see you sitting here, I know everything is going to be OK.” That’s when Nixon 44 he needed to pay attention to the people walking past.
Instead of staring straight ahead at the waterfront, Nixon started 45 at people and talking to them. And pretty soon, some early risers began 46 him on the bench, sometimes sharing their pressure and asking him for advice about personal problems.
No matter what problem a person wants to 47 , Nixon lends an ear. One day, a couple came by to talk about their problems. The husband was always working. It was ruining their 48 . Nixon told him, “You have to know what’s really important.” The man admitted he’d put everything he had into his 49 for many years instead of focusing on his family. “He started to cry and agreed that he needed to 50 ,” Nixon says, “We hugged each other and became friends after that.”
Nixon was always happy to listen, and he listens without 51 and without any kind of return expected. “You have to listen with an open heart, because you never know who’s going to walk up,” Nixon says. He is a loving and loyal 52 to many. For those who walked past the bench, they were always 53 with a smile and asked how they were doing.
No topic is off limits, but some people don’t want to talk. They simply want to sit next to someone and share the 54 .

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
For parents who send their kids off to college saying, “These will be the best years of your life,” it would be very appropriate to add, “ 56 you can handle the stress of college life.”
Freshmen are showing up already stressed out, according to the latest research study 57 reported students’ emotional health levels at their lowest since the survey started in 1985. While in school, more students are working part-time and near-full-time jobs. At graduation, only 29 percent of seniors 58 (offer) jobs.
Pressure to excel often creates stress, and many students are not learning how to effectively handle this stress. Let me show five facts that I believe every college student 59 know about stress.
First, stress can make smart people do stupid things. Stress causes 60 brain researchers call “cortical inhibition (皮层抑制).” In simple terms, stress prevents a part of the brain responsible for decision-making and reaction time and can negatively affect other mental abilities as well.
Second, the human body doesn’t discriminate between a big stressful event and a little one. Any stressful experience will create about 1,400 biochemical events in your body. If any amount of stress is left 61 (uncheck), many things can occur within the body, including premature aging and energy drain.
Third, stress can become your new pattern. When you regularly experience negative feelings and high amounts of stress, your brain recognizes this 62 your normal state. This then becomes the new norm (常态) for your emotional state.
Fourth, stress can be controlled. Countless studies demonstrate that people can restructure their emotional state using emotion refocusing techniques. One technique 63 (involve) slowing your thoughts, breathing slowly, and focusing on the positive feeling that you receive.
Finally, 64 (draw) to what you study can lessen stress. Barbara Frederickson, a leading international authority on the importance of positive emotions, says humans are genetically programmed 65 (seek) positive emotions such as love and joy. It’s suggested that you should choose a major or career path you love and enjoy. Otherwise, you could end up fighting against your own biology.

“Bye, Mom; bye, Dad; don’t worry. We’ll take care of everything!” Carly waved as her parents drove off. They were headed for a well-deserved vacation from their candy store, and Carly had promised them she’d be able to run it by herself. Her parents didn’t quite agree, however, so they compromised by having Carly’s Aunt Maggie come over and help, who was called “uniquely creative”.
Maggie blew into the store like a swirling whirlwind and asked for an immediate start. Carly showed her where the family made some of their own candy, such as fresh fudge(软糖), cotton candy, and ice cream. They had lots of delicious flavors to choose from. Aunt Maggie looked them over and tasted a
bite of the chocolate fudge. “It’s delicious, right?” Carly asked confidently. “It’s good, but … unoriginal,” replied her aunt. “We can do better.”
Before Carly could question what Maggie meant, the woman had gone to investigate the kitchen. Moments later, she came back with her hands full of items. “Brussels sprouts(豆芽菜)?” Carly gave her aunt a puzzled look. Aunt Maggie couldn’t be serious!
But she was. The woman’s hands were busy chopping and then adding small pieces of the vegetable into the vanilla fudge batter(糊状物). Carly’s eyes grew wide as she watched her aunt mix it together. “Aunt Maggie, I really don’t think that’s a good idea,” said Carly. “No, you’re quite right,” agreed Maggie.
“ But that’s definitely an ice cream flavor. The cold will perfectly balance out the spicy sauce!”
Carly shook her head in dismay. She couldn’t imagine what her parents would think upon their return. Her aunt whistled a happy tune as she continued to mix strange candy combinations: lemonade with pickle(泡菜)juice, barbeque-flavored candy, and lima bean(利马豆)ice cream.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:Carly looked up as the bell over the front door rang, and in came three boys.
Paragraph 2:Thoughts brought back by the bell, Carly saw a big crowd, including the three boys.
