When school started on that warm August day, I threw myself into everything I did, including playing volleyball. I decided to become beautiful, or at the very least, skinny. I stopped eating completely. Soon I began losing weight, which thrilled me, and I even grew to love the tiredness and lightheadedness that came with my poor diet, for those feelings meant that I was winning.

As the season progressed, things had become tense between my head volleyball coach, Coach Smith, and me. She felt that something was wrong with my health. She talked with me about my eating and was angry that I wouldn’t listen to her when she tried to make me eat. She tried to persuade me in a determined way and so we fought constantly. Then my hunger started to affect my performance. I was so tired that practice and games were becoming a struggle. One afternoon, with hurt in her eyes, Coach Smith asked me what I had eaten and I told her nothing yet, but I was going to. She looked at me, disappointment in her eyes, knowing she couldn’t make me stop, and walked away.

A couple of weeks later I attended a formal dinner for our volleyball team. I stood there as my coach managed to say something nice about me. I realized then that I had ruined my senior year by being disrespectful, and I had probably ruined hers as well. So that evening I wrote her a letter apologizing and thanking her.

Then one Saturday, as I was reading in the library, I felt someone gently take my arm and say softly, “Lynn Jones, how are you doing?” I looked up and saw the familiar face. “Thanks for the letter,” she said. “It meant a lot.”

When I think of a coach, I think of someone above me, someone who gives instruction—not a friend. But Coach Smith is different, and, like any other good friend, she dealt with my problem in a determined way even when I hated her for it at that time. I didn’t deserve her kindness, but she gave it anyway. I will forever be grateful for her help, and now for her friendship.

24. How did the author feel when the author ate a poor diet and had a sense of tiredness?

A. Ashamed    B. Proud       C. Funny    D. Nervous

25. The author fought with Coach Smith because ______.

A. she refused to go on a diet          B. she caused failure of her team

C. she changed the training course         D. she kept her idea of losing weight

26. Why did the author write a letter to Coach Smith?

A. She felt sorry for eating too little food.            B. She decided to improve her performance.

C. She was grateful for Smith’s care for her health.    D. She wanted to build a close relationship with Smith.

27. What is the best title for the passage?

A. Unexpected Friendship                B. A Fight with My Coach

C. A Strict Volleyball Coach                D. My Way of Losing Weight

                                     C

Since the beginning of the summer in 2022, China has been sweltering under the worst heatwave in decades. A number of people in Zhejiang, Henan, Jiangsu and Sichuan provinces were diagnosed with thermoplegia (热射病), the most severe form of heatstroke, and some even died of this disease.

In a warming world, the hazards of heatwaves are increasing. According to a study, the number of deaths caused by heatwaves in China has increased rapidly since 1979, from 3,679 persons per year in the 1980s to 15, 500 persons per year in the 2010s.

High temperatures would accelerate the loss in soil moisture(水分)and hurt the growth of corn, cotton, trees and fruits. What’s more, each additional degree of warming will increase crop losses to insects by 10-25 percent, threatening food security for billions of people.

China has witnessed a range of extreme weather events, including heavy rainfall, flooding, tornadoes and record heatwaves this year. Meteorological officials said the country had an average temperature of 21.3 degrees Celsius in June, 0.9 degrees Celsius higher than the same period on average, and the highest record for the same period since 1961.

Experts say that while extreme summer heat is not entirely new, these sorts of occurrences could be something that becomes a standard part of life, requiring people to start learning how to cope with heatwaves that may continue for the rest of summer and well into the future.

Remember that even healthy, young athletes can be harmed by extreme heat, so every activity, indoors or outdoors, should be evaluated when extreme heat hits. There are some ways to stay safe during extreme heat events, such as drinking plenty of water, looking for shade or remaining in shade when outside, and avoiding cooking large meals that can add heat to your indoor environment.

28. Why does the writer mention the cases in the four provinces in China?

A. To introduce the four provinces.             B. To show the rising growth of population.

C. To identify the impact of the worst heat wave.     D. To offer the accurate data for the thermoplegia.

29. What dos the underlined word “hazards” in paragraphs probably mean?

A. Panics.    B. Dangers.     C. Outcomes.        D. Expenses.

30. What can we infer from paragraph 3?

A. Rural areas suffer more from heat waves than cities. 

B. China has witnessed the worst climate ever in 2022.

C. Climate change results in the decline in insect species. 

D.High temperatures have negative effects on agriculture.

31. What does the writer want to convey in the last paragraph?

A. Ways to deal with extreme heat.                  B. The tendency of heat waves in the future.

C. Effects of global warming on the environment.          D. The significance of keeping healthy in summer.

D

Japan's biggest airline is betting that the future of travel isn't traveling at all. For the last month, a married couple has been interacting with a robot—called an Avatar—that's controlled by their daughter hundreds of miles away. Made by ANA Holdings Inc., it looks like a vacuum cleaner with an iPad attached. But the screen displays the daughter's face as they chat, and its wheels let her move about the house as though she's really there.

“Virtual travel” is nothing new, of course. Storytellers, travel writers and artists have been stimulating the senses of armchair tourists for centuries. It's only in recent decades that frequent, safe travel has become available to the non-wealthy.

Yet even as the world's middle classes climb out of the armchair and into economy-class seat, there are signs of a post-travel society emerging. Concerns about environmental sustainability cause loss to airlines which release much carbon. And the aging of abundant societies is both restricting physical travel and creating demand for alternative ways to experience the world. For the travel industry, virtual reality offers an attractive response to these trends.

Of course, new technologies encourage far-out claims. ANA doesn't plan to start selling Avatars until next year. Profits, too, will probably be difficult to make: By one estimate, the global market for this kind of technology will be worth only about $300 million by 2023. By contrast, ANA's traditional travel business brought in more than $19 billion last year.

But if the business value for virtual vacations is still weak, the market for technologies that bridge physical distances between families and coworkers seems likely to only expand. ANA's robots may not replace its airplanes any time soon, but they’ll almost certainly be a part of travel's high-tech future.

32.Why does the author use the example of a couple interacting with a robot?

A.To show the Japanese are crazy about travel.       B.To show the couple are very enthusiastic over robots.

C.To indicate virtual travel begins to enter people's real life.

D.To express the close relationship between the couple and their daughter.

33.Which of the following is the possible reason for virtual travel's appearance?

A.More and more people lose interest in travel.    

B.People are worried about the air pollution caused by airlines.

C.Frequent and safe travel has become available to the ordinary people.

D.Storytellers, travel writers and artists have been using it for centuries.

34.What can we learn about Avatars from the last two paragraphs?

A.They will be put on the market soon.        B.They will bring ANA a lot of money.

C.They will replace ANA's airplanes soon.     D.They are almost unavoidable in travel's future.

35.What can be a suitable title for the text?

A.Virtual Travel Benefits                 B.Air Travel Disappearing

C.Easy Travel in the Future               D.Your Next Travel May Be Virtual

Dear Sir or Madam,

I’m Li Hua from Xinhua Middle School. Having learned that your International Student Service Center is recruiting (招募) volunteers to fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, I’m writing to apply for it.

All our citizens are looking forward to playing a part in fighting against the virus, so am I. The reason why I think I’m qualified to be a volunteer is that not only am I good at getting along with these overseas students but also I have a good command of English, making it easy for me to teach them how to wash hands correctly and put used masks in the special trash bins. In addition, I can help to clean up the International Student Service Center. As is known to all, a clean and tidy environment can stop the spread of the virus. Then, I’m willing to help take the overseas students’ temperature and urge them to wear their masks properly at the entrance of the service center.

To sum up, I believe I can be a qualified volunteer. I’d appreciate it if you take my application into consideration. I will try my best if I’m accepted.

Yours,

Li Hua
