（2022·江苏宿迁·统考一模）Scientists say drop the screen from your bedtime rountine
Looking at screens at night can cause us to sleep poorly, according to a US study.
In the evening, our bodies make melatonin(褪黑素). Melatonin makes us feel sleepy and relaxed. It’s an important part of our sleep cycle. Our electronic screens prevent that cycle from working in a normal way.
Phones, computers and TVs make blue light. Blue light stops our bodies from making melatonin. Even just a little bit can have a big effect. Eight minutes of blue light can keep your brain “awake” for another hour, according to the study. Even if you fall asleep, you may have lots of dreams. Your brain won’t have a good rest.
It’s even worse if you play an exciting game before bed. Games make our hearts beat faster, so we have a harder time falling asleep. Then, when we fall asleep, we don’t get enough “deep sleep”.
4．________ is an important part of our sleep cycle.
A．Melatonin B．Phones C．Computers D．Blue light
5．What will happen if we look at screens for eight minutes at night?
A．We will fall asleep soon. B．We will get enough deep sleep.
C．Our brain will be asleep for another hour. D．We may have many dreams after falling asleep.
6．Probably you can find this article in ________.

（2022·江苏宿迁·统考一模）A man who was climbing a mountain thought he was alone. But suddenly, he was hit by a falling rock and then, a woman climber fell from above, landing right on him. They were both badly injured(受伤）. His leg was broken. He tried to stand but couldn’t. The woman’s arm was broken and couldn’t climb. What were they going to do?
It was very cold and night was coming. They both knew they wouldn’t live through the night if they didn’t go down the mountain before darkness came.
The woman had an idea. “Look,” she said. “I have two good legs, and you have two good arms. Together, that makes one healthy body.”
They tied themselves together so that he was on her back. Slowly, they climbed down, little by little. Every step was difficult. They had to stop every minute or so, but the man was counting on(指望) the woman’s strong legs and the woman was counting on the strength in the man’s arms to keep them from falling.
When they finally reached the foot of the mountain, they were found and sent to the hospital by the local people. In the end, they were fine.
They both learned a good lesson that day. A good team isn’t made up of people who can all do the same thing. It must be made up of people who can provide many different skills. By using their individual strengths, they went down the mountain safely.
Sometimes in life, we must depend on another person’s strengths to make up for our weakness.

（2022·江苏宿迁·统考一模）In the next few days, Mary spent almost all her time in the garden. The fresh air from the moor made her hungry, and she was becoming stronger and healthier. One day she noticed the robin(知更鸟) again. He was on top of a wall, singing to her. “Good morning! Isn’t this fun! Come this way!” he seemed to say, as he hopped along the wall. Mary began to laugh as she danced along beside him. “I know the secret garden is on the other side of this wall!” she thought excitedly. “And the robin lives there! But where’s the door?”
That evening she asked Martha to stay and talk to her beside the fire after supper. They could hear the wind blowing round the old house, but the room was warm and comfortable. Mary only had one idea in her head.
“Tell me about the garden,” she said.
“Well, all right then, Miss, but we aren’t supposed to talk about it, you know. It was Mrs. Craven’s favourite garden, and she and Mr. Craven used to take care of it themselves. They spent hours there, reading and talking. They were very happy. They used the branch of an old tree as a seat. But one day when she was sitting on the branch, it broke, and she fell. She was very badly hurt and the next day she died. That’s why he hates the garden so much, and won’t let anyone go in there.”
“How sad!” said Mary. “Poor Mr. Craven!” It was the second time that she had ever felt sorry for anyone.
Just then, as she was listening to the wind outside, she heard another noise, in the house. “Can you hear a child crying?” she asked Martha.
Martha looked confused. “Er-no,” she replied. “No, I think ... it must be the wind.”
But at that moment, the wind blew open their door and they heard the crying very clearly.
“I told you!” cried Mary.

（2022·江苏南通·统考一模）It’s late fall in the Arctic (北极的) Ocean. Ice begins to form on top of the water, making it difficult for the white whales to find open areas to come up for air. “They have to come up to breathe,” says Donna Hauser, a marine biologist (海洋生物学家) at the University of Alaska in Fairbanks. “That’s a more difficult job, and they have to find openings in the ice.”
The white whales know it’s time to leave for warmer waters. So the group of about a hundred white whales heads south toward the Bering Sea, a body of water separating the United States and Russia.
Halfway through their journey, the while whales find themselves swimming between two ice floes (浮冰). Suddenly, they hear a large splash (溅泼声). A white whale’s main enemy-an orca(虎鲸) — has appeared and is swimming toward the white whales. Luckily, orcas aren’t as good at swimming through ice floes as white whales are, giving the white whales time to speed up and swim away.
The white whales are safe, for now. “But before getting to their destination, they must pass through the Bering Strait connecting the Arctic Ocean with the Bering Sea-before the narrow (狭窄的) waterway freezes over,” Hauser says. “Otherwise, their path south could be blocked (阻挡).”
The white whales finally make it to the Bering Strait, which hasn’t yet frozen over. After a few more days of swimming, they arrive at the Bering Sea. The white whales will rest, hunt, and play here until April, when they’ll swim back north. There, the females will give birth to baby white whales in the spring. When ice spreads across the Arctic Ocean again, those babies will follow their families south and begin their first long journey.
19．Why do the white whales leave the Arctic Ocean?
A．They need to go south to hunt.
B．They have to get enough air.
C．They want to breathe fresher air.
D．They are afraid of the cold weather.
20．What may help the white whales get away from from the orca?
A．Brave fights. B．Swimming skills.
C．Large ice floes. D．Their smaller bodies.
21．What does “their destination” in the fourth paragraph refer to?
A．The Bering Strait. B．The Bering Sea.
C．The Arctic Ocean. D．The United States.
22．When will the white whales leave the Bering Sea?
A．In January. B．In February. C．In March. D．In April.

（2022·江苏南通·统考一模）Great work is work that makes a difference in people’s lives, writes David Sturt, Executive Vice President of the O. C．Tanner Institute, in his book Great Work: How to Make a Difference People Love. Sturt insists, however, that great work is not just for surgeons or special - needs educators or the founders of organizations trying to eliminate poverty（贫穷）in sub - Saharan Africa. The central theme of Great Work, according to Sturt, is that anyone can make a difference in any job. It’s not the nature of the job, but what you do with the job that matters. To prove this, Sturt tells the story of an excellent hospital cleaner named Moses.
In a building filled with doctors and nurses doing great life—saving work, Moses the cleaner makes a difference. Whenever he enters a room, especially a room with a sick child, he impresses both patients and parents with his optimism（乐观）and calm, introducing himself to the child and,Start writes, speaking “some words about light and sunshine and making things clean.”He praises on any progress he sees day by day (“you’re sitting up today, that’s good.”) Moses is no doctor and doesn’t sit pretend（假装）to be, but he has witnessed hundreds of sick children getting well from painful surgery, and parents take comfort from his encouraging words. For Matt and Mindi, whose son McKay was born with only half of a heart, Moses became a close friend. As Sturt explains, “Moses took his born talents (his sensitivity) and his practical wisdom (from years of hospital experience) and brought them into a powerful form of patient and family support that changed the critical—care experience for Mindi, Matt and little McKay.”
How do people like Moses do great work when so many people just work? That was the central question raised by Sturt and his team at the O. C．Tanner Institute, a consulting（咨询）company specialized（专营）in worker recognition（认可）and rewards system.
O. C．Tanner carried out a complete Great Work study that included surveys to 200 senior executives（高管）, a further set of surveys to 1, 000 managers and workers working on projects, a study of 1. 7 million accounts of award - winning work (in the form of nominations for awards from corporations（公司） around the world), and one - on - one interviews with 200 different makers. The corporations（公司）around the world, and one-on-one interviews with 200 different makers. The results of the study showed that those who do great work refuse to be stopped by the constraints of their jobs. They are especially able to think about their jobs without any boundaries, they don’t consider their jobs as a list of tasks and responsibilities（责任）but see their jobs as chances to make a difference. No matter, as Moses so ably exemplifies（例证）, what that job may be.
23．According to Sturt, which of the following is TRUE?
A．It’s not the nature of the job, but what you think that makes a difference.
B．Anyone in the world has duty to reduce poverty and change the world.
C．Anyone can make a difference in people’s lives no matter what kind of job he does.
D．Surgeons, special—needs educators and founders of organizations can succeed more easily.
24．According to this passage, how does Moses, a common hospital cleaner, make a difference in people’s lives?
A．By keeping optimistic and calm when facing patients and their parents.
B．By showing his great duty and rich working experience while working.
C．By showing his pity and kindness to patients when entering their rooms.
D．By pretending to be a doctor or nurse when entering a room with the sick.
25．The word “constraints” in the last paragraph probably means _________ .
A．orders B．advantages C．mistakes D．limitations
26．What can we infer from the passage?
A．Great work is work that makes a difference in people’s lives.
B．Those who do great work see their jobs as chances to make a difference.
C．Moses makes a difference through his sensitivity and his practical wisdom.
D．If a boss has trouble knowing his workers well, he may ask O. C．Tanner for advice.

（2022·江苏南通·统考一模）My mom’s life was a busy one. Raising four kids on her own was a full time job in itself, but she also worked outside the home. Surprisingly, she always seemed to find a little bit of extra time for us despite (不管) her schedule (预定计划).
She would take us over to my aunt’s in the evening when she worked as a waitress in a small diner. We would just be finished with school and have to hurry, so my mom would be on time for work. I thought she would pass us over to our aunt and hurry off as soon as we made it through the front gate, but that didn’t happen. Instead, we would sit on the porch (门廊), my mom in her waitress uniform, and we would rock in my aunt’s big wooden swing (秋千) and talk about what happened that day.
“I learned how to add numbers up to the hundreds,” my sister Sandy would say.
“That’s wonderful,” my mom would reply, holding her tight.
“I learned how to write my name!” Larry, my younger brother, would shout.
My mom would get a piece of paper and a pencil out of her purse and hand it to my brother “Show me how you do it,”she’d ask softly.
“Do you have enough time to hear what I did today?” I’d ask her.
Mom would smile at me and nod. “I’m never too busy for something important like that!”
She gave us the gift of time again and again throughout the years. Later on in her life, when she came to live with us after her retirement (退休), my mom gave the gift of time to my children too. They would run around excitedly, asking their grandma if she would play with them, or read them a story, or go for a walk with them. By then my mom had health problems, but she would always nod and sit down and read to them or tell them stories about when she was a little girl. Those moments were a wonderful gift that my children still talk about and treasure.
In the last few years of her life, I would take her to lunch or sit with her on the porch, and we would talk about the past, the dream of the future, and just enjoy being with each other. My mom would listen as I shared all of my hopes, my fears, and my dreams for my family. I would look at her and ask her if she minded me taking up so much of her free time.
‘‘Nonsense,’’she’d tell me. Then she’d give me a wink and say, ”“I’m never too busy to spend time with you. It’s one of the greatest joys of my life.”
I will always remember those wonderful words and the loving heart behind them. It is a gift my mom give to me for which I will forever be grateful. In this busy world of ours, and in a life filled with challenges, she always had time to share her joy with me.
27．According to the passage, we know that the writer grew up _________ .
A．in a small diner B．in a low - paid family
C．only with her aunt D．with her four sisters
28．After retiring, the writer’s mother _________ .

C．caring and patient D．lazy and tidy
30．What’s the best title for the passage?
A．Mom’s Gift of Time B．Always for Pleasure
C．Never too busy, Mom D．My Mother’s Lifetime

（2022·江苏扬州·统考一模）There are thirty-four bridges on the Thames in London. The following are among the most famous ones.

Tower BridgeTower Bridge has stood over the Thames in London since 1894 and is one of the finest, most famous bridges in the world. Tower Bridge is the only Thames bridge that can be raised. It used to be raised about 50 times a day, but nowadays it is only raised 4 to 5 times a week.

London BridgeLondon Bridge started in 1176 and finished years later. Houses and shops were once built on the bridge, which made the road so narrow that it was often jammed with people, horses and carts. A “keep left” rule was made in 1733 to keep the traffic moving. This became the rule of the road in Britain.

Millennium BridgeMillennium Bridge is a bridge for walkers. It was built in 2000. Thousands of people rushed to see the new bridge. Almost immediately after opening, the bridge had to be shut because of the dangerous waving caused by too many visitors. It has now been reopened.

Westminster BridgeWestminster Bridge is a road and foot traffic bridge over the Thames between Westminster and Lambent. The present bridge was opened in 1862 and took the place of an earlier bridge opened in 1750.

（2022·江苏扬州·统考一模）Colin dreamt about the garden again, and Dickon and his animals.
Early the next morning Mary ran into his room. “Dickon is here with the fox cub and the crow and two squirrels and a new-born lamb!” she cried. “Listen! Did you hear that caw-caw sound?” Colin looked very excited. Just then Martha opened the door. “Dickon and his animals are here, sir, ” she said.
Dickon came in. The new-born lamb was in his arms and the little red fox walked next to him. A crow sat on his left shoulder and a squirrel sat on the other. Another squirrel was looking out of his coat pocket. Colin stared as Dickon gave him the new-born lamb. “What is it doing?” cried Colin. “What does it want?” “It wants its mother, ” said Dickon, smiling. He took a baby’s bottle from his pocket. He pushed the bottle into the lamb’s mouth. The lamb drank the milk, then it fell asleep.
The next day, Dickon pushed Colin in the wheelchair slowly and carefully. Mary walked next to it. They went across the lawn to the long path near the wall.
“This is where I walked up and down looking for the door, ” whispered Mary. They walked a bit further, and then Mary whispered again: “The robin（知更鸟）flew over the wall here. And there, ” she said, pointing under a big bush in the flower bed, “is where I found the key”.
Then Dickon stopped pushing the chair. “And look!” Mary moved the ivy branch. “Here is the door. Dickon, push him in — push him in quickly!”
When they were inside the garden, Colin looked round and round. He saw the walls and the earth and the trees with their new green leaves. In the grass under the trees there were flowers — gold and purple and white. The trees were covered in pink and white flowers. The sun was warm on his face. Mary and Dickon stared at him. He looked different. His face was pink, not white.
“Mary! Dickon! I’m going to get well!” he cried, “And I’m going to live forever and ever!”

（2022·江苏扬州·统考一模）Yesterday I woke up to the sound of music on my couch in my fifth floor apartment. I couldn’t possibly tell you what song was playing because I was thinking what to do that day. I felt as if that day was going to be one of “those days”.
After taking my son to school, I remembered I should meet my 85-year-old friend Harry. I promised to take him to lunch anywhere he wanted to go. When we parked the car, Harry told me, “I have to go into the donut (甜甜圈) shop next door before going to the restaurant.” Of course I agreed and in we went. He immediately walked in and began having a joke with the owner of the shop in his fashion. They chatted happily as she gave him a dozen donuts and off we went. I couldn’t help but ask him, “What are the donuts for?” He quickly replied, “You will soon see.”
As we opened the door to the restaurant, the line was very long. It was lunch time. People were on their cell phones. Babies were crying and the waiters looked stressed and burnt out. Harry and I were waiting in line chatting about nothing until we reached the front of the line. As he walked to the counter (柜台), all the waiters began smiling. He placed the box of donuts on the counter and said, “These are for you and other workers.” At once, the mood in the restaurant changed. This single act of kindness made the customers, the waiters, the kids and even me think when was the last time we did something nice for a stranger.
What was most amazing to me was earlier that morning I felt bored with my life. It felt like it was just another day. Watching this gentleman provide donuts for the waiters in a crowded restaurant at the lunch rush hour changed my ideas on life. Making an effort to do the little things can make people feel happy every day and our days will be better.

A．Harry had a joke with waiters B．people felt surprised about the act
C．Harry was deeply respected there D．people were touched by the kind act
41．Which might be the best title for the text?
A．A magic donut B．A kind gentleman C．A boring day D．A famous restaurant

Do you know black boxes?
Black boxes are flight recorders placed in an aircraft for the purpose of making it easier to  know how the accidents happened in flight.
An airplane actually has two black boxes. The flight data recorder catches the information, which can discover whether human error or instrument problems contributed to an accident. The cockpit (驾驶舱) voice recorder records pilot voices and cockpit sounds.
The black boxes are not black. They are painted bright orange to help with their recovery after accidents. The outside is with stripes of reflective tape (反光带). The black boxes are usually placed in the tail of a plane where they are more likely to survive a crash. A flight data recorder is required to store at least 25 hours of flight information. A cockpit voice recorder is required to record at least 2 hours of audio information.
For the black boxes to survive a crash, they are built to be waterproof, fireproof, shockproof, heat and pressure and corrosion resistant (耐腐蚀). The black box must be able to hold 3, 400 times the force of gravity, when the airplane goes down at the speed of about 500 km/h. It must also survive flames up to 1, 100 degrees Celsius for one hour, and the boxes should be able to give out a signal once per second while put under 6, 000 meters of saltwater for at least 30 days.
How is data from black boxes picked up? It needs special skills to physically bring the black boxes back. Investigators may need to clean and dry the black boxes and download data from them. It takes time to download and get the information from data. If the storing units go wrong, it will take longer time, either days or months.
So, the black boxes are very important to explain to everyone what happened during the flight.
42．What does the unlined word “recovery” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A．恢复 B．找回 C．保存 D．覆盖
43．Which of the following sentences is True according to the passage?
A．Black boxes help us know how flight accidents happen.
B．It takes little time to download data from the black boxes.
C．Black boxes are painted black with stripes of reflective tape.
D．One black box is in the head of a plane and the other is in the tail.
44．In Paragraph 5, the writer uses numbers to show ________.
A．the black boxes are strong enough
B．the black boxes can help the plane land safely
C．the black boxes can tell people the cause of the accident
D．the black boxes can hold a lot of information about the plane
45．This passage mainly tells us ________.
A．how long black boxes work B．how black boxes pick up data
C．what messages black boxes carry D．what we know about black boxes

（2022·江苏连云港·统考一模）At dinner, Holly was talking about her father’s huge car. It used too much petrol. It made too much noise. And it caused too much pollution.
“You have to change it, Dad,” Holly said. “It’s destroying the environment.” “Actually, I’m thinking of working from home, so I won’t need the car.” “That’s great!”
Her father looked quickly at his wife, then decided to continue, “But I’m going to build a new office at the end of the garden.”
“At the end of the garden? There is the old oak tree…”  Holly didn’t finish the sentence. Her face turned white with anger.
Holly’s mother said, “That tree is very old, Holly. And your father can have his new office there. It’s perfect.”

（2022·江苏连云港·统考一模）Dear David,
How time flies! It’s been 3 months since I came to China. I’m having a great time on my student exchange program here. So far, I’ve completely got used to the life here and have known a lot about traditional Chinese culture. I’d like to share some with you.
In China, there are many different kinds of traditional art forms, such as paper cutting, Chinese clay art and so on. Among them, the kite interests me most. The first ancient Chinese kite appeared more than 2,000 years ago. Then flying kites was spread into Japan, Korea and Malaysia during the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. Kites are regarded as the earliest craft (飞行器). They played an important role in the process of inventing the plane.
Tea culture is important in China. Tea was discovered as a kind of drink by accident about 5,000 years ago. It is believed that tea was brought to Korea and Japan during the 6th and 7th centuries. It didn’t appear in England until around 1660. The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19th century. Now tea has become one of the most popular drinks around the world.
Lastly, I’d like to tell you something about one of the traditional Chinese festivals — the Mid-Auturnn Festival. It is on the fifteenth day of the eighth month in the Chinese lunar calendar (阴历). Chinese people have been celebrating the Mid-Auturnn Festival and enjoying mooncakes for centuries.
If you’d like to know more about traditional Chinese culture, I will talk about it in the next letter.

How can you do calculations (计算) quickly? These days, you can easily use a calculator.
But how about people in ancient times? In the very beginning, the cleverest among them thought of using stones and seashells. Then, around the 2nd century B．C．, they invented the abacus. Some researchers consider the invention to be the world’s oldest “calculator”. In China, people used abacuses to do calculations for thousands of years.
The abacus is usually made of wood.It has many beads (珠子). Each rod (竿)stands for a different digit (数位). The rightmost is ones, the second is tens, the third is hundreds, and so on. Each bead in the central area has a value.
In the past, the use of the abacus was taught in all schools. It was considered to be an important skill that everybody needed to pick up. Wherever there was a need for calculations, an abacus would come into sight.
Today, abacuses are no longer widely used. Perhaps you have never seen one. However, we can still feel the important roles they once played. Abacuses have become a symbol.

It is said that about 40% of the world’s population use social media, and most influencers help social media users decide what to buy and what trends (潮流) to follow.

（2022·江苏南通·统考一模）The ability of reading and writing doesn’t come naturally to people, it takes a lot of effort, and most of us have learned how. Eighty-six percent of the world’s population is literate（受过教育的）, and this number has been increasing for centuries. Literacy makes it possible to make a world filled with books, websites, text messages, road signs, and more.
But the world of information is changing. Why send a long letter or text when you can share photos or videos instead? Why learn from a book when you can practice a skill in virtual reality（虚拟现实）? Why read magazines when you can listen to podcasts（播客）?
Could people take part in today’s world without reading or writing at all? Technology seems to make it possible. Nowadays most of our smart devices（设备） are able to talk and take spoken orders, like reporting the weather, playing a song or setting a timer. The devices sometimes still make silly mistakes, but it’s getting better and better. It’s possible to imagine a future world where we can easily communicate with our devices.
But reading and writing are still powerful tools. For one, most people read faster than they speak. A podcaster or audiobook teller speaks at around 150 to 160 words per minute, while a strong reader can read through a text at 300 to 400 words per minute. That’s twice as fast! Research has also found that people remember more information and stay more interested when they are reading as compared to listening.
Learning to read also creates new connections in the brain. With the invention of reading, humans rearranged the very organization of our brain, which improves the way to think and changes the intellectual evolution（进化） of our humans.
What do you think? Do you hope people keep on reading and writing or will technology make literacy obsolete?

“Christmas won’t be Christmas without any presents,” grumbled（嘀咕）Jo, lying on the rug（地毯）.
“It’s so awful to be poor,” agreed Meg, looking down at her old dress.
“It’s not right for some girls to have plenty of pretty things, and others to have nothing at all.” added little Amy, with a sad sniff（轻哼）.
“We’ve got father and mother, and each other,” said Beth gently.
The four young faces on which the firelight shone brightened at the cheerful words, but darkened again as Jo said sadly, “We haven’t got father, and shall not have him for a long time.” She didn’t say “perhaps never,” but each silently added it, thinking of father far away at the war in the South.
Nobody spoke for a minute. Then Meg said,“Mother advised not having any presents this Christmas because it is going to be a hard winter for everyone; and she thinks we shouldn’t spend money for pleasure when our men are suffering（受难）in the army. We can’t do much, but we can make our little effort. But I am afraid I don’t.” Meg shook her head thinking regretfully of all the pretty things she wanted.
“But I don’t think the little we should spend would do any good,” said Jo. “We’ve each got a dollar, and that won’t help the army much. I agree not to expect anything from mother or you. Let’s each buy ourselves what we want, and have a little fun. We work hard to earn it.”
“I do, teaching those tiresome children nearly all day when I really want to enjoy myself at home,” complained Meg.
“You don’t have half such a hard time as I do,” said Jo. “How would you like to be shut up for hours with a nervous, fussy old lady, who is never happy, and worries you till you’re ready to fly out of the window or cry?”
“It’s naughty to fret; but I do think washing dishes and keeping things tidy is the worst work in the world. It makes me cross; and my hands get too stiff to practice my music at all,” Beth looked at her rough hands with a sigh that anyone could hear.
“I don’t believe any of you suffer as I do,” cried Amy, “for you don’t have to go to school with rude girls who laugh at your lessons or your dresses and say bad words because your father isn’t rich.”

（2022·江苏常州·统考一模）How will the Internet change the world? Will we enjoy a smarter life in the future? Recently, many of the world’s biggest Internet companies took part in an important meeting. They talked about how to build a future for our online world. The Internet can make our lives easier in many ways. The companies at the meeting showed us some of their latest technology. Here are some examples. Let’s take a look.
Lip reading machines
They can not only read faces. They can also read your lip movements. The Chinese Internet company Sogou has made lip reading technology. You don’t need to speak aloud. The machine turns your lip movements into voice or text. This could be very useful if you are in a noisy place and people cannot hear you on your phone. Police can also use this technology. Sometimes they see criminals on city-monitoring cameras, but they don’t know what they say. The lip reading technology can help people with this.
Smart shoes
Your feet might hurt if your shoes don’t fit you. This won’t happen if you wear “smart” custom-made shoes. The Xiemofang company brought a machine to the meeting. The machine scans your feet. It records 39 parts of your feet. It also has a database (数据库). The database has more than 10,000 kinds of shoes. You can choose the colour and style. It also gives you suggestions for your choices. The suggestions are based on records of other people’s feet. You can get your new shoes after 10 days.
Unmanned supermarkets
You walk into a supermarket, pick out your goods and go to check out. But there is no worker. There is just a tablet (牌子) that says “Please smile”. When you smile, it gives you a discount (打折). Your money goes from your Alipay account to the supermarket. You don’t need to do anything. The Alibaba company has made this supermarket. When you go into the supermarket, it knows your face and your Alipay account. It also knows your facial expressions. So it knows how much you like your goods.

One day a new beautiful woman, Cassy, arrived to pick cotton. Tom noticed that she was very fast, he also noticed that an older slave, Martha, was in pain. She was slow, and her sack was almost empty. Tom went near Martha, and silently put a lot of his cotton into her sack.

“What’s happening?” he said, and he kicked Martha and whipped Tom across his face. The blood was running from his face.“Work faster, you animal!” But when he left, Tom quickly gave her some more of his cotton. Suddenly, the new woman put much cotton in Tom’s sack.
“Tom is going to make much trouble. He kept putting cotton into Marth’s sack,” Sambo told Legree. “Then we’ll have to teach him a lesson,” said Legree.

“You lazy animal! This is not enough! Stay here and wait.” He finished weighing all the other sacks, and then turned to Tom.
“Come here,” said Legree, “l want to give you a better job than picking cotton, and you can start tonight: take this woman and whip her-you know how.”
“I’m sorry, Master,” said Tom. “ I can’t do it.”
Legree whipped Tom across his face and then hit him with his fists many times. “There!” he said. “Now will you tell me you can’t do it?”
“Yes, Master,” said Tom, with blood running down his face. “I will work night and day, but I will never whip another person.”
“I bought you, and you’re mine, body and soul”, Legree said, kicking Tom. “My soul isn’t yours, Master! You can’t buy it!”
“We’ll see, “said Legree, “Sambo, Quimbo, give this dog a lesson.”

（2022·江苏常州·统考一模）Nobody likes to fail. It makes people feel upset. What’s worse, it may cause trouble and lead to negativity(消极). Generally, failure is no fun for most people. However, a lot of research tells us that failure provides us with a chance to grow and develop, increases adaptability, and helps protect against anxiety(焦虑).
It’s hard to change the mindset(心态) of a lifetime. But even if we still can’t get over the broken marriage or the failed College Entrance Examination or the work presentation that went fearfully wrong, it might not be too late for our kids.
Christy Pennison, a professor, says she works with a growing number of kids and teens who show anxiety around a fear of failure. She said, “We want to protect our children, and we want them to live happy and meaningful lives, so we often tell them the harm of failure and ask them to avoid failure. The children who are experiencing stress think they shouldn’t fail. Meanwhile, we always have high expectations of them. So when they don’t live up to a certain standard, or things don’t go according to the plans, they will feel upset and stressed.”
Pennison argues that failures are often the hidden learning chances that can help people develop positive qualities, like persistence, focus, flexibility, patience, and positive self-confidence.
So what can parents do to help their children embrace (拥抱) failure instead of avoiding it at all costs? Pennison suggests directing praise towards the effort, not the result. “This allows children to build confidence in themselves,” she explains. “Paying attention to the effort can encourage children to try new things without a fear of failure. And the bigger picture is that the development of the mindset— ‘I’d rather try and fail than not try at all.’—helps them believe in themselves, and expands(拓展) their world of possibilities.” As Pennison points out, we all fail, but how we get up after we fail is what matters.
100．What do most people focus on when thinking of failure?
A．The great courage to face it. B．The efforts made to deal with it.
C．Unexpected advantage it brings. D．Unpleasant bad results it brings.
101．What is the purpose of Paragraph 2 ?
A．To introduce the main topic. B．To provide some background information.
C．To list the challenges in our life. D．To stress the difficulty of changing the mindset.
102．What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3?
A．The causes of children’s anxiety. B．Christy Pennison’s thoughts on teenagers.
C．The results of protecting children too much. D．Christy Pennison’s experience in educating children.
103．Which of the following advice can help parents encourage kids to face failure?
① Praise kids’ every achievement.② Make kids embrace a bright mindset.
③ Pay attention to the process of kids’ effort④ Expand kids’ knowledge about the world.
⑤ Encourage kids to try new things.
A．①②④ B．②③④ C．②③⑤ D．①③⑤

（2022·江苏连云港·连云港市新海实验中学校考一模）Do you often listen to music at loud volumes (音量)? You should know that this habit is bad for your hearing, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
Over 1 billion young people are at risk of hearing loss due to listening to loud noise for long periods of time, WHO said. Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volumes can harm your hearing.
The United Nations has standards for safe listening. It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 decibels (dB分贝)for eight hours or 100 dB for 15 minutes. The sound of a busy road is about 85 dB and the sound of a rock concert can be about 100 dB．
Loud noise is harmful to the inner ear. Most of us have about 16,000 hair cells (听毛细胞) in our inner ears. These cells detect sounds. However, listening to loud noise for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die. This is what causes hearing loss.
Some people might think that their music isn’t all that loud. But this can depend on where you are. For example, if you are in a noisy place like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realizing it. Later, when you listen to it at the same volume in a quiet place, you might feel uncomfortable.
WHO said that “safe level” for most sound is below 80 decibels for up to 40 hours a week. A level of 80 decibels is roughly equal to the noise of a subway.
Tips for safe listening
Use noise-canceling headphones.
These headphones get rid of background noise. You don’t need to turn up the volume as much.
Turn down the volume
Keep your device volume at 50-60 percent.
Limit daily use of headphones
Listen to sound on your mobile devices for a maximum (最大量) of one hour per day.

107．Many young people are at risk of hearing loss because they ________.A．watch shows on TV every day B．go to a rock concert
C．listen to loud music for a long time D．stand on a busy road
108．The sound of a busy road is about ________.
A．85 dB B．80 dB C．40 dB D．100 dB
109．The fifth paragraph tells us that ________.
A．people like to listen to loud music on the subway
B．people don’t always realize how loud their music is
C．people don’t know where they are when they listen to music
D．it’s correct to listen to loud music in some places
110．To have a safe listening, we are advised to ________.
A．keep our device volume at 65 percent B．use headphones when we listen to sound
C．use noise-canceling phone when it’s noisy D．use headphones at least one hour per day

（2022·江苏连云港·连云港市新海实验中学校考一模）Shang Yang was a statesman of the Qin state (秦国). He was very talented and forward-thinking. He worked out a series of reform plans for the state, including focusing on farming and giving rewards to soldiers who were successful during war.
But at the beginning, these reforms were not easily carried out. Only a few people in the state understood Shang’s talent and advantages of his plans. Most people had little trust and confidence in him.
To solve this problem, Shang came up with an idea. He ordered some soldiers to put a thin wooden pole at the south gate of the Qin state capital. This attracted many people. Then, in front of the crowd, he said loudly, “People of Qin, here is my offer. Whoever takes this pole to the north gate will get a reward of 10 gold pieces.”
It was a simple task and the reward was big. Some time passed and no one stepped forward. They all thought that Shang was joking.
Hearing no answer, Shang stepped forward and said, “I will increase the reward to 50 gold pieces.”
This offer was even more unbelievable. Finally, a man from the crowd came forward to take the pole. He put the pole on his shoulders and walked to the north gate. True to his word, Shang paid the man 50 gold pieces.
Word spread about what had happened in the capital. Soon, the people were saying that Shang was a man of his word. When he began promoting his reforms, the people followed and did not question him.
Under the reforms, Qin grew strong and unified all the states, becoming the first empire of China.

（2022·江苏连云港·连云港市新海实验中学校考一模）What is the worst disease in the world? Many people might say it is cancer. Cancer will kill about 9.6 million people in the world this year, according to World Health Organization. Scientists have been working to find ways to beat cancer. A lot of progress has been made in this field.
James P Allison from the US and Japanese researcher Tasuku Honjo discovered a new kind of cancer treatment that earned them the 2018 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in October. The new treatment can make our immune systems (免疫系统) strong enough to effectively fight cancer cells. It is hoped that this treatment can be used to treat most cancers in the future.
This is not the only recent improvement in cancer treatment. In November, the US Food and Drug Administration approved a new cancer drug called Vitrakvi. Instead of being effective only for treating specific types of cancer, this drug can be used to treat 17 different kinds of cancer, including lung cancer and breast cancer, USA Today reported.
Finding cancer as early as possible is the best way to beat it. To check people for cancer, doctors must collect tissue (组织) from a patient’s turnor and test it. This process can take a long time. But in December, scientists from the University of Queensland in Australia developed a simple cancer test that can detect cancer in a patient’s blood. The test takes less than 10 minutes. The test is about 90 percent accurate, the Guardian reported.
With all of these treatments, cancer can be effectively controlled. Honjo believes most kinds of cancer will become treatable by 2050. “Even if we cannot completely eliminate the turnor, we can survive while still having part of a turnor,” Honjo said at a press conference in Stockholm, Sweden, in December.
115．According to the first paragraph, which of the following is NOT true?
A．Cancer is the world’s worst disease.
B．About 9.6 million people die from cancer this year.
C．Scientists have found ways to cure cancer completely.
D．There have been some improvements in cancer treatment.
116．What do you know about Vitrakvi?
A．It can make the immune system weak.
B．It is a new drug that can treat 17 kinds of cancer.
C．It can’t be used to treat lung cancer or breast cancer.
D．It has proven to be effective for treating all types of cancer.
117．What does the underlined word “turnor” in the fourth & fifth paragraphs mean?
A．肿瘤 B．细胞 C．微生物 D．切片
118．Which of the following can be the best title of this article?
A．Two researchers discovered a cancer treatment. B．Vitrakvi — a new cancer drug.

Is Space Tourism a Good Idea?
“The most profound (深远的) experience I can imagine” is how actor William Shatner described the four minutes he spent in space. He was one of four passengers on board billionaire Jeff Bezos’ rocket, called New Shepard.
It was the second time that the rocket had successfully taken tourists into space. Bezos believes that in the future, millions of people will live and work in space. This will reduce the amount of pollution being caused on Earth.
However, Prince William says people should fix problems on Earth before going to space. “We need to put the world’s greatest brains together to try to repair this planet, instead of trying to find the next place to go and live. “ he says. What do you think? Is space tourism a good idea?
YES-- “It is the future and it will save the Earth.”
The developing technology will allow people to live and work in space in the future. People could move polluting businesses away from Earth and into space, which will protect the planet.
The projects are complicated (复杂的) and require lots of people working on them. This creates lots of new jobs for scientists and engineers.
Let’s not forget that going into space is also a lot of fun. Besides, humankind likes to explore and to find out what it is capable of achieving.
NO-- “It is a fantasy and waste of money”
Billions of pounds could go towards feeding hungry people, housing those without homes and providing medical treatment for people in need. The time and money spent on space tourism could also be used to develop technologies to protect the environment and the planet from climate change.
What’s more, space travel does more harm than good. This is because rockets create huge amounts of pollution as they burn tons of fuel in order to fly into the sky.
Lastly, space tourism is only for the rich. Few people can afford to buy a ticket to space.
Because of this, it will only end up being the wealthiest who get to go.
