Directins: After reading the passage belw, fill in the blanks t make the passage cherent and grammatically crrect. Fr the blanks with a given wrd, fill in each blank with the prper frm f the given wrd; fr the ther blanks, use ne wrd that best fits each blank.
Fr the entirety f my adult life, I have tried t avid driving. I culd claim all srts f nble reasns fr this: cncern abut the envirnment, a desire t save mney, the health benefits gained frm walking r biking. But the main reasn is (21) _I’m anxius.
Then came the pandemic. After mre than a year in ur Manhattan neighbrhd, my family f three (22)(lng) fr new surrundings. S, fr the first time in my life, I signed up fr frmal driving lessns.
On that first day, I arrived queasy (心神不定的), muscles tensed and brain (23)high alert. My instructr, hwever, tld me smething that nbdy ever had: “The fear never leaves yu. Yu have t learn t make use f it.”
The idea that I did nt need t cmpletely erase my anxiety was freeing. Having sme anxiety
— especially when (24)(face) with a stressful situatin — is nt necessarily bad and can actually be helpful, experts say.
Accrding t the Yerkes-Ddsn Law, a thery (25)(riginate) frm experiments n mice in the early 20th century, a certain degree f anxiety can help peple anticipate bstacles and stay rganized.
Seth Gillihan, a psychlgist in Philadelphia, used t feel anxius befre starting his wrkday. At the time, he fcused n managing his anxiety (26) examining what was causing it, and eventually realized that the anxiety itself was nt the prblem. As a result, he cut back his clinic hurs and spent additinal time writing and pdcasting, tw f his passins. Nw, Gillihan is grateful that he listened t (27)his bdy was trying t tell him rather than trying t suppress thse feelings.
Furthermre, anxius peple tend t be careful and cautius. They (28)channel thse tendencies int cnscientiusness. Alice Byes, the authr f The Anxiety Tl-kit, was the kind f kid wh was always having tummy aches befre sprts events at schl. (29)she grew up, Byes cntinued t wrry abut things ging wrng, but she als started making cntingency plans (应变计划). Being prepared fr unfreseen events helped t calm her fears and reduce the likelihd f any wrst-case scenaris.
In my case, preparing ahead f time was what eventually gave me the cnfidence t drive upstate. It tk eight driving lessns, a nervus last-minute text t my instructr, and a rental car with advanced safety features. Finally, my family packed up and set ff. “Mama is a driver!” my fur-year-ld daughter exclaimed frm the back seat. “That’s right!” I replied, (30)_ (start) t feel a glimmer f pride. “I am.”

I Am What I Am (als knwn as Lin Dance By), a Chinese animated feature released n Dec 17,2021, has fund itself in the eye f a scial-media strm—abut eyes.
The film (31)_ arund three teenagers frm Guangdng prvince wh set ut t master the traditinal lin dance. While ancient culture is (32)t the plt, the setting is very much the real-wrld China f tday. This alne sets the film apart frm mst recent Chinese animated hits: wrks f high fantasy related t mythlgy(神话).
Pushing the realism, the filmmakers pted t give the characters relatively small eyes. The idea
was t break away frm the “beauty standards f nline (33)and filter aesthetic（审美）” and t try “t explre the aesthetic in animatin---frm an angle f reality.” writes The Glbal
Times, paraphrasing prducer Mia Zhang.
Fr sme, thugh, the designs dn’t represent Chinese peple s much as (34) steretypes f them. Viewers have taken t scial media t cndemn the film.
“This is hw Chinese peple were (35)prtrayed during the clnial perid. We’ve been discriminated against fr s lng that this desn’t lk s strange t sme peple” reads ne Weib user cmment. Anther wrte an essay arguing that “narrwed” eyes is a greater (36)
_ t a Chinese persn than imagining a Black persn eating watermeln and fried chicken in the United States. Large eyes are very cmmn in Chinese cg films. Fr Zhang, this reflects absrptin f freign ideas, nt the small eyes his film cntains. The Glbal Times cntinues:
The respnse t “narrwed eyes” f the character shws that we lack aesthetic (37)
_ and ur aesthetic view f animatin has been hmgenized（统一化）given the huge influence f Japanese and American animatin and the selectin f such an rdinary by perfectly depicts his spirit f strength and resistance t life.
I Am What I Am is ppular with thse wh have seen it, earning user scres f 8.3 and 9.5 (38)
_ n film reviewing platfrms Duban and Mayan. Its Chinese bx ffice t date is
164.6 millin yuan, accrding t Entarup.
The questin f racism aside, this cntrversy shws hw (39)t character design can becme deep-rted in the industry, t the pint where even a subtle difference makes (40)

Sectin A (15’)
Directins: Fr each blank in the fllwing passage there are fur wrds r phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the wrd r phrase that best fits the cntext.
Can playing t many vide games be a mental health cnditin? In sme circumstances, the Wrld Health Organizatin thinks that it can.
The WHO is t include gaming disrder in its Internatinal Classificatin f Diseases fr the first time. This widely used (41)manual was last updated in 1990, and the latest revised versin f ICD-11 is set t be published and prmted in 2022.
The wrding f the gaming disrder entry that will be included in ICD-11 is yet t be (42)
_, but the draft currently lists a variety f criteria (标准）clinicians culd use t determine whether a persn’s gaming has becme a serius health cnditin. Accrding t this draft, smene has gaming disrder if they give increasing (43)t gaming “t the extent that gaming is thught f as mre imprtant than ther life interests”, that they will cntinue t game (44)
_ negative cnsequences.
Additinally, the draft says that unfavurable gaming behavir will nrmally need t have cntinued fr at least a year befre a persn’s diagnsis can be (45).
“ Health prfessinals need t recgnise that gaming disrder may have serius health cnsequences, "says Vladimir Pznyak at the WHO's Department f Mental Health and Substance Abuse. Mst peple wh play vide games dn’t have a disrder, just like mst peple wh drink alchl dn't have a disrder either. (46), in sme circumstances veruse can lead t negative effects, says Pznyak.
The WHO first began cnsidering gaming disrder as a(n) (47)cnditin a decade
ag. Thrugh cnsultatin with mental health prfessinals, the agency has decided t (48)
_ recgnise gaming disrder in its next manual, but nt ther cnditins linked t(49)
,such as smartphne addictin r internet addictin. “There is simply a lack f evidence that these are real (50)_,” says Pznyak.
It is largely (51)hw wide gaming disrder is. A range f criteria and definitins exist, and estimates f the prprtin f gamers wh have a prblem range frm 0. 2 per cent up t 20 per cent, depending n which study yu read.
“This is a very big difference. The reasn why this wrk is s imprtant is that it will allw

But Allen Frances at Duke University in Nrth Carlina (53)that fficial
recgnitin f gaming disrder culd lead t the diagnsis being misapplied. “Tens, perhaps hundreds, f millins f recreatin gamers withut severe impairment(损伤）will likely be (54)
_ and vertreated, "he says.
“Sn we may have calls fr ‘shpping disrder’, ‘wrkahlic disrder’, ‘binge watching disrder’ and my wn persnal favurite ‘beach bum disrder’,” says Frances. “Everything peple are (55)abut can be degraded int fake mental illness.”

Santrini is a small grup f islands in the Aegean Sea, r eastern Mediterranean, just ver 100 kilmetres nrth f the much larger island f Crete. Once a single, circular mass, the centre f the island has fallen int the sea, leaving a rugh ring cnsisting f Thera, the main island, and sme smaller islands.
Abut tw millin years ag, lava—ht, liquid rck—began t be frced ut in the area f the present-day Akrtiri peninsula(半岛）in the suth f Thera. Over the last 200, 000 years, the island has experienced a cycle in which the creatin f vlcanes frm lava has alternated with large explsive eruptins, f which there have been at least 12 in this perid.
Excavatins (挖掘）n Akrtiri have uncvered evidence f habitatin ging back ver 5, 000 years. 3, 800 years ag, the twn was a prsperus seaprt f the Minan peple, whse civilizatin — centred n Crete — cvered a large area f the eastern Mediterranean. Akrtiri was ne f the main urban centres and prts f the Aegean. It had a ppulatin f abut 30, 000, an
elabrate drainage system and cmplicated buildings, sme f them tw and even three streys high, cntaining wall paintings and furniture.
Abut 3, 650 years ag, the vlcan erupted and threw 30 t 40 cubic kilmetres f lava int the air, in a clumn reaching a height f 36 kilmetres abve the island. With s much lava remved, the vlcan, and the entire centre f the island, cllapsed int the sea, prducing the largest crate
（ 火山口）n Earth. Ash was blwn eastwards, and fell ver a large area f the eastern Mediterranean and Turkey, prbably with a glbal impact n the climate. On Santrini itself, ash was depsited in layers up t 50 metres thick, and Akrtiri was buried under ne t tw metres f it. Tidal waves swept suth t Crete. This eruptin is thught t have brught the Minan civilisatin t a sudden end.
Frtunately, n bdies r mvable bjects have been fund in the ash. There is an assumptin that it was the destructin f this twn that gave rise t the stry f the disastrus fld which engulfed the island natin f Atlantis.
What has happened t Akrtiri ver the last 200, 000 years?
A new vlcan frmed after each eruptin.
The number f vlcanes there has been decreasing.
There was a vlcanic eruptin almst every 1000 years.
It has been sinking and emerging in turn.
The wrd “habitatin” in Paragraph 3 is clsest in meaning t.
the eruptin f vlcanesB. a certain habitual behaviur
C. the act f livingD.an unexpected disaster
What can be inferred frm the passage?
Akrtiri has been thught f as the place where Atlantis used t lie.
The Minan civilizatin disappeared suddenly fr sme unknwn reasn.
Akrtiri is nw a majr prt f the Aegean with a ppulatin f abut 30, 000.
Residents in Akrtiri may have left befre the eruptin f 3, 650 years ag.
What is the passage mainly abut?
The rigin f an ld stry.B. The histry f a vlcan.
C. The reasns fr vlcanic eruptins.D. The cnsequences f vlcanic eruptins.
Sectin C (8’)
Fr example, we cannt test hyptheses that need a supernatural frce.
Hwever, hyptheses cncerning smething supernatural are nt likely t be tested.
Getting cld makes it easier t catch a cld.
Of curse, scientists d nt shw every hypthesis t be false — the imprtant pint is that prving them false is pssible.
This is what actually happened with the hypthesis that taking vitamin C keeps clds away.
This kind f advice cmes in part frm what they knw abut hw ur bdies fight clds.
Directins: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a prper sentence given in the bx. Each sentence can be used nly nce. Nte that there are tw mre sentences than yu need.
Hyptheses(假设）
The hypthesis is central t each experiment, s we need t knw what hyptheses are and where they cme frm. As we saw earlier, ur friends and family ften give advice abut aviding clds (fr example, the advice t wear a hat r take vitamin C.) (67). Ideas abut “hw things wrk” are called hyptheses. Or, in ther wrds, a hypthesis is an idea t explain ne r mre things we bserve. All f us frm hyptheses abut why things happen. These cme frm ur understanding f the wrld. When a mther tells her children t wear warm clthes, her advice cmes frm the fllwing hypthesis: (68)_. Hyptheses in bilgy cme frm knwing hw the bdy and ther bilgical systems wrk, ur experiences in similar situatins, what we knw abut ther scientific research, and lgical thinking. Our creative minds als help.
A scientific hypthesis must be falsifiable. That is, yu must be able t imagine a way t shw that it is false, such as by giving an example shwing that it is wrng. Fr instance, think abut the hypthesis that yu get mre clds in cld weather. We culd lk at ne grup f peple wh spend time in cld temperatures and anther grup wh stay in warm temperatures. If bth grups get the same number f clds, the hypthesis might be false. S, this hypthesis is falsifiable. (69)
. This is why persnal pinins, such as “It is wrng t cheat n exams”, are nt scientific — each persn has a different idea abut right and wrng. It is impssible t falsify persnal pinins.
Hyptheses must als be testable. This means it must be pssible t check them by seeing r measuring things. Nt all hyptheses are testable. (70). If smething is supernatural, it des nt fllw the laws f nature, and we cannt predict its behavir: we can't
measure anything abut it.

Situated in the nrth-western part f Arizna, the Grand Canyn is ne f the natural wnders f the wrld. Cntrary t ppular belief, the Grand Canyn is nt the lngest, deepest r widest canyn in the wrld. But it is accessible, and with little vegetatin t hide it, it feels big. But hwever vast it seems, it is nt big enugh t supprt the millins f peple wh visit it every year.
When ne sectin f the Grand Canyn was declared a natinal park in 1919, three years after the creatin f the Natinal Park Service, visitr numbers were 44,000. Tday, with five millin visitrs a year, the Park Service is finding it difficult t keep the Canyn accessible t the public and t safeguard it fr future generatins.
The pressures n the Grand Canyn Natinal Park frced the Park Service t draw up a management plan. One f the first prblems it faced was that f the large number f visitrs' cars which needed parking space. The Park Service gt arund the prblem by allwing visitrs t take advantage f free buses, which take them n a number f rutes arund the park.
Sme f the ther prblems faced by the park are the result f things happening utside its bundaries. Take air pllutin. On summer days, when there are suth-westerly winds, the pllutin blwn in frm Suthern Califrnia can restrict the views ver the Canyn.
Thse wh nce thught that the Grand Canyn was just an amazing hle in the grund sn learn that hwever big it is, its ppularity is in danger f destrying the very qualities that made it ne f the seven natural wnders in the wrld.
