Kelsie Dolin's grandmother always encouraged her to try new things, often pushing her out of her comfort zone. One way that her grandmother tried to push her out of her comfort zone was by encouraging her to sing more, especially in public. Kelsie gave it a shot, but it didn't turn out like she'd hoped.

Kelsie couldn't help but notice the unusual number of American Idol advertisements she'd come across that were made to get people to audition(试镜). Finally,it reached a point where she took it as a sign for her to take another chance on singing.

This was a big change for the shy, down-to-earth young woman who was only 18 at the time. As someone who grew up in Boone County, West Virginia and had never been on a plane before, just getting to the audition would mean experiencing a lot of firsts. But once her plane ride was over, it was time for her to step out of her comfort zone in a major way; Not only was she about to perform for the first time ever, but she was about to do so in front of judges Katy Perry,Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie.

Kelsie chose to sing "Piece by Piece" by Kelly Clarkson, a fitting song since it comes from the first-ever winner of American Idol. The judges were impressed by her vocals(唱功),but they could tell that Kelsie's nerves were holding her back. After much encouragement, they asked if she could sing the second song she had prepared:"When We Were Young"by Adele. At first, Kelsie's confidence remained about the same. But as Perry shouted out instructions to cheer her up and bring her out of her shell, something magical happened.

As she reached the chorus(副歌),Kelsie found the strength to sing, bringing tears to Richie's eyes. All three judges were so proud of Kelsie for her great first performance. They couldn't help but say the magic words "You are going to Hollywood!"

24. What did Kelsie's grandmother ask her to do?

A. Sing at home.

B. Try something new.

C. Watch advertisements.

D. Stay in her comfort zone.

25. Why was it a big change for Kelsie to go to the audition?

A. She became very shy.

B. She took a plane for the first time.

C. She first showed in an advertisement.

D. She would experience many new things.

26. What was the judges' purpose of asking Kelsie to sing the second song?

A. To attract more audience.

B. To help her overcome nerves.

C. To make her understand instructions.

D. To encourage her to remain the confidence.

27. What can we know from the judges' words in the last paragraph?

A. Kelsie was moved.

B. Kelsie's effort paid off.

C. The judges were tough.

D. The judges performed well.

C

Teens interested in losing weight, for instance, got advertisements for unhealthy tips on how to become anorexic(厌食者). Such advertisements targeted these kids in hopes of persuading them to try things that were either dangerous or illegal at their age.

Advertisements are just one example of persuasion—trying to change another's mind. Advertisements may try to convince us to buy something or do something new and different. Marketing is a field of persuasion designed to sell things, notes Jacob Teeny. Persuasion can be used to sell things. At its worst, it can be used to control people. Clearly, persuasion can be used for good and bad.

People open to new experiences tend to be more easily persuaded, Teeny says. But open-minded people can resist some persuasive arguments—such as the idea that eating junk food is cool, And closed-minded people can sometimes be persuaded."If you haven't really thought about the arguments" ahead of time, Teeny says, you're going to be"much more persuadable.

You might resist the message if you think about it as you listen to it for the first time. You might find reasons why their line of reasoning does not make sense by spotting holes in someone's argument. But when you're busy or distracted, you are easier to be persuaded, Teeny says.

"Persuasion is a science,"Teeny says. In fact, he notes,"It's studied as one."So

educate yourself about the factors that go into persuasion. You will become more persuasive about the social appeals that matter to you, he says. At the same time, you will become more resistant to undue(不适当的)persuasion by others.

28. Why are advertisements mentioned in Paragraph 1?

A. To introduce the topic.

B. To explain its function.

C. To ask children to lose weight.

D. To tell teens to avoid dangerous things.

29. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?

A. Marketing is designed to sell things.

B. Persuasion is used to control people.

C. Persuasion has advantages and disadvantages.

D. We should follow advertisements to buy things.

30. How can you find an argument unreasonable?

A. By working busily,

B. By being distracted.

C. By being closed-minded.

D. By finding its weak points.

31. What does the writer think of "knowing about persuasion"?

A. Useful.

B. Interesting.

C.Difficult.

D. Wasteful.

D

One aspect of the clean-energy change will happen inside buildings. Many homes and businesses burn natural gas for heating and cooking. Natural gas gives out greenhouse gases, as well as other pollutants that can harm health. Gas appliances(家用电器)can be replaced by electric versions and tap into clean electricity,

Panama Bartholomy is the director of the Building Decarbonization Coalition. His group, based in Petaluma, Calif., focuses on limiting gas emissions indoors."We assume the electrie grid(输电网)is getting cleaner over time, which it is. So, we want more and more of our heating to come from electricity."

It's much easier to make these types of transitions when governments recommend them, says Beth Miller. She is an ecologist and consultant with Good Company. Based in Eugene, Ore., it helps companies and communities reduce their carbon footprint. Some states are already taking steps to make these changes. On September 22, for instance, California decided it would ban the sale of gas-fired space heaters and water heaters by 2030.

After homes and businesses make the switch to electric alternatives, they will be more comfortable, says Bartholomy. They will be safer and cleaner, too, he adds. Instead of a gas furnace(燃气炉),an electric heat pump could both heat and cool a home. Gas heaters and stoves won't be pumping pollution into a home's air. And cooks will have even more control on a modern electric cooker than on a gas stove, says Bartholomy.

Getting natural gas out of your home is probably the largest positive impact you can have for the planet, Bartholomy says."We all need to fight for a livable climate. There is no way to meet our climate goals while still burning gas in buildings, For a livable future, we must take measures to stop burning natural gas, though we know we have a long way to go." And the bonus; It now looks like doing that should also save people a lot of money.

32. What is the clean energy change?

A. Using natural gas for heating.

B. Using natural gas to boil water.

C. Using electric cookers at home.

D. Using electric lights inside buildings.

33. What does the underlined word"transitions"in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Promises.

B. Plans.

C. Changes.

D. Decisions.

34. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?

A. Homes will be safer.

B. Gas stoves will be replaced soon.

C. Homes' air will have more pollutants.

D. Cooks prefer to use traditional cookers.

35. What is the best title of the text?

A. Clean-energy Change.

B. Electricity Use.

C. Make Use of Natural Gas.

D. Save Your Money at Home.

While it might be OK to go into your weekend without a plan, the same can't be said for college admissions.  36  , creating a college planning process is ssential.

College planning is a process that involves researching potential colleges, creating a list of best-fit schools, and selecting classes that match your academic goals. Before writing down a list of best-fit schools, you should think about what interests you most and where your future career aspirations might lie. Reflect on the classes you enjoyed most during high school,the extracurricular activities you look forward to, and any job or internship(实习)experience that you participated in.   37  ,

Since most schools offer a range of different college majors, choosing a course of study can be challenging for many students.  38  , you should keep in mind that you will likely be able to explore careers outside of this subject if you later choose to do so.

Making a college planning checklist is an easy way to stay on top of the dmissions process and hold yourself accountable.  39  . Create a handful of items to complete

during each year of high school to make the process feel more manageable.

  40   ,it's time to set your sights on preparing for life after college. You should consider whether you're interested in attending graduate school or jumping straight into the workforce. You'll also need to think about the types of careers that will suit you best and what you can do to prepare for work in those fields.

A. While selecting a major is an important decision

B. Once you have completed your college planning journey

C. If you're looking to getting accepted into your first-choice school

"Girls ages 13 to 14 please proceed to staging with your coaches at this time."Looking around the room,eyes wide and pleading, I frantically(慌乱

地)explained my situation to nearby coaches. The seconds ticked away in my head; every polite refusal increased my desperation.

Despair weighed me down. I sank to my knees as a stream of competitors,coaches, and officials flowed around me. My dojang(跆拳道馆)had no coach, and the tournament rules prohibited me from competing without one.

Although I wanted to remain strong, doubts began to cloud my mind. I could not help wondering: what was the point of perfecting my skills if I would never even compete? The other members of my team,who had found coaches minutes earlier, attempted to comfort me, but I barely heard their words. They couldn't understand my despair at being left on the outside, and I never wanted them to understand.

Since my first lesson 12 years ago, the members of my dojang have become family. I have watched them grow up, finding my own happiness in theirs. Together, we have practised our kicks, blocks, and strikes. We have pushed one another to aim higher and become better martial artists. Although my dojang had searched for a reliable coach for years, we had not found one. When we attended competitions in the past, my teammates and I had always gotten lucky and found a sympathetic coach. Now, I knew this practice was unsustainable. It would devastate(使极为忧伤)me to see the other members of my dojang in my situation, unable to compete and losing hope as a result. My dojang needed a coach, and I decided it was up to me to find one.

I first approached the adults in the dojang—both instructors and members' parents. However, these attempts only reacquainted me with polite refusals. Everyone I asked told me they couldn't devote multiple weekends per year to competitions. I soon realized that I would have become the coach myself.

At first, the inner workings of tournaments were a mystery to me. To prepare myself for success as a coach, I spent the next year as an official and took coaching classes on the side. I learned everything from motivational strategies to technical, behind-the-scenes components of Taekwondo(跆拳道)competitions. Though I emerged with new knowledge and confidence in my capabilities, others did not share this faith.

Parents threw me disbelieving looks when they learned that their children's coach was only a child herself.

Now,as I arrive at a tournamenit with my students, I close my eyes and remember the past.
