But now, we write from left to right. Why did this change? This has to do with the writing tools and habits that people had back then.Before paper was created, people wrote on bamboo pieces. The thin pieces were connected well. People wrote from top to bottom on one piece and then another. The small pieces were then connected together into one long passage.After being connected, the bamboo pieces were rolled(卷) up. While opening a roll, people usually held it with their right hand and opened it with their left hand. Therefore, it made more sense to start writing from the right-hand side.This writing habit also had something to do with social status(社会地位) in ancient times. The top-right corner stood for nobility(尊贵), while the bottom-left corner stood for humility(卑微).Near the end of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), some people began to spread Western ideas and suggested that Chinese people should follow western writing habit.In 1917, Qian Xuantong wrote a letter to the New Culture Movement leader Chen Duxiu suggesting writing Chinese characters from left to right. He said that if we used our right hands to write, it would be easier to begin from the left. It would be more comfortable to read, too. However, this idea wasn’t widely accepted.In the early 1950s, famous overseas Chinese businessman Chen Jiageng and Chinese writer Guo Moruo raised this suggestion again. Gradually, newspapers, magazines and books were printed in the new habit. Then people got used to writing from left to right in rows.26. What’s the writer’s main purpose of writing Paragraph(段落) One? A. To give examples.  B. To introduce a topic.  C. To give advice.27. Why do people today write from left to right? A. Because the writing tools and habits have changed. B. Because there aren’t enough bamboos to write. C. Because Chen Jiageng suggested following the western habit.28. What does the underlined expressing “more sense” in the third paragraph mean? A. 更有感情 B. 更合理 C. 更困难29. Which is NOT TRUE according to the passage? A. It wasn’t easy for people to accept to write from left to right at first. B. People started to write from the top-right corner because it meant nobility. C. We should often follow western habits because they are widely accepted.30. What can be the best title(标题) of the passage? A. Old habits die hard B. Changing the way we write C. Writing stood for nobilityDScientists found that people who have fewer friends in real life are happier than those who have plenty of friends.Researchers from the University of Leeds, UK, studied the results from two online surveys of nearly 1,500 people. Those who took the survey gave information about their ages, social communication, and how they liked their social lives. The researchers found that those who had a small number of close friends were happier than those who had a large number of superficial(关 系浅的) friends.“Loneliness has less to do with the number of friends you have, but more to do with how you feel about your friends,” said Wandi Bruine de Bruin, one of the researchers.Bruine de Bruin found that older people had smaller social circles than young people, but the people in these circles were closer to them. Younger people, on the other hand had bigger circles that were made up of “peripheral others” — people who are not true friends, but just people they know. These so-called friends didn’t influence(影响) younger people’s happiness.People might think old people were sad and lonely. Now the results of the study showed that it might be wrong.“The research shows that older adults’ smaller circles didn’t have a bad influence on social satisfaction and happiness. In fact, older adults had a better feeling of happiness than younger adults,” said Bruine de Bruin.Based on these results, the study believes that people should pay more attention to the ties with close friends instead of increasing the number of friends.31. According to the study, people become happier when they _______. A. have a lot of followers on social media B. are satisfied with their work and lives C. have a small circle of close friends32. What does the underlined word “peripheral” mean in Paragraph Five? A. 重要的 B. 亲密的 C. 次要的33. What can we know from Paragraphs 4 and 5? A. Older people have fewer and closer friends than young people. B. Young people don’t need to make peripheral friends. C. Older people’s happiness has nothing to do with their friends.34. Which word might Bruine de Bruin use to describe older adults? A. Happy.  B. Lonely.  C. Sad.35. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Different types of friends in our life. B. Changes in people’s happiness levels among young people. C. The relationship between happiness and the number of friends.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。每个选项仅使用一次。Life is not perfect. It never has been and never will be.

To him, children are like ocean waves and mothers are like seas. Flowers are like children in underground schools. They sing and dance.Tagore believed that people should think positively about each other. And nations around the world should live in a peaceful world. They should help each other instead of fighting.Tagore’s dream of a peaceful world is specially meaningful as the world continues to face the COVID-19 pandemic.41. Where was Tagore from?42.

In other countries, such as China and the US, 67. it’s a pity that music classes are not as important as those like science, math and history. That’s partly because music is not seen as a very important life skill, and it isn’t tested and many students are busy with schoolwork. 68. Parents and students might choose to pay more attention to test subjects.However, learning music is good in many ways. 69. As you play music, you will try your best to use all different abilities.
