Zhang Xiqing is an utlier in Chinese sciety. At 33, she is happily unmarried, has n plans t have children with her byfriend, and left her jb at Tencent fr a start-up because she wanted t “try smething new”. But Zhang faces immense pressure frm her family. She des her best t deal with the pressure t break cnventin but it can be a lnely path t fllw. Nw, hwever, she is drawing inspiratin frm a reality shw that has becme a hit n Chinese televisin.
Instead f giving yung girls a sht at fame, Sisters Wh Make Waves, prduced by Hunan Televisin, has invited established actresses and perfrmers ver 30, and sme in their 50s, t cmpete fr a spt in a five-member band. The shw has been a hit, especially amng wmen, since it started airing in June. Fr wmen like Zhang, the attractin is that it shws mre experienced wmen using their cnfidence and expertise—rather than yuth—t get what they need.
“Seeing them n stage, I am n lnger anxius abut my age,” ne viewer, wh is attracted by the shw cmmented n Weib. A blgger wh ges by the pen name Shaxi said the verwhelming ppularity f the shw reflected the desperate need fr wmen in China t see themselves pictured in a different light. Other viewers resnated (共鸣) with the setbacks f sme f the stars, wh battled persnal and prfessinal difficulties with the images f sparkling versins f themselves.
But sme critics say the shw falls shrt f its ideals. Wu Changchang, an assciate prfessr f jurnalism at East China Nrmal University, wrte that the shw was “hllw feminism (空洞的女权主义)”. Hwever, Shaxi said, “judging an entertainment shw n what degree f feminism it cntained was missing the pint.” It’s ppularity said smething abut the female audience. “It means that cmpared with the past, mre are favring strng, independent wmen. I hpe I can be mre like them”, she said.
24. Why des the authr mentin Zhang Xiqing in paragraph 1?
A. T express a view.B. T make an argument.

B. The psitive cmments frm viewers.
C The negative influence f the shw n the sciety.
D. The clse cnnectin between the shw and the reality.

C. It inspired wmen t be themselves and pursue their dreams.
D. It stressed the curage t fight against prfessinal difficulties.

The standard public health threats are all-t familiar: smking, high bld pressure, cancer. But a new gvernment advisry made headlines in 2023 by adding an unexpected majr t that list. Lneliness, stated the reprt frm Surgen General Vivek Murthy, is a widely under recgnized U.S. health crisis. In recent years, abut 50 percent f Americans have experienced lneliness, which results in adverse effects. Lnely peple, as Murthy’s reprt warns, run the same mrtality (死亡) risk as peple wh smke 15 cigarettes a day.
On its face, Murthy’s warning sunds awfully alarmist. It’s hard t understand hw a lack f cmpaninship culd be as threatening as an addictin r glbal pandemic. But humans are s bilgically wired t be scial that islatin damages ur systems. Peple wh lack scial supprt have a 29 percent higher risk f heart disease, a 32 percent higher risk f strke, and a 26 t 29 percent higher risk f premature death, accrding t the reprt. What’s mre, such health effects in islated lder adults have led t abut $6.7 billin in Medicare spending each year.
Scientists nw knw that lneliness can cause lts f health prblems. That may be because ur ancestrs thrived (繁荣) in supprtive cmmunities. “Our brains functin mre efficiently when we are with thers.” Says Julianne Hlt Lunstad, a prfessr f psychlgy and neurscience at Brigham Yung University.
Since lneliness can feel s much like persnal failure, it’s easy t assume peple shuld just try t handle it n their wn. But in reality, many f the factrs that prmte scial islatin are structural nes. “It culd be wrkplace plicies that dn’t allw flexibility t supprt persnal relatinships.” Hlt Lunstad says. “It might be busy r unsafe streets that are barriers t getting t knw yur neighbrs.”
28. What des the underlined wrd “adverse” in paragraph 1 prbably mean?
A. Slight.B. Negative.C. Indirect.D. Immediate.
29. Which is true abut lneliness accrding t passage?
A. Lneliness is a great health threat t peple.B. Lneliness des mre harm than a pandemic.
C. Lnely peple run the same risk as the smkers.D. Lneliness is a well-recgnized health prblem.
30. What can be inferred frm Hlt Lunstad’s wrds?
A. Scial islatin can be slved n ne’s wn.
B. Scial anxiety hlds back persnal interactins.
C. The absence f scial supprt wrsens lneliness.
D. Tight wrking schedules lead t tense relatinships.
31. What might be written in the fllwing paragraph?
A. The causes f lneliness.B. The effects f lneliness.
C. The definitin f lneliness.D. The slutins t the lneliness.
D
They are s small that yu need a micrscpe t see them, but s pwerful that experts predict they culd kill ten millin peple per year wrldwide by the year 2050. They are superbugs — drug-resistant bacteria that have emerged since antibitics (抗生素) revlutinized medicine. Indeed, the rise f these superbugs and the use f antibitics are clsely cnnected.
All rganisms change ver time. Smaller rganisms, such as bacteria, are able t evlve mre quickly, adapting as circumstances require. Facing antibitics, bacteria have adapted with deadly efficiency. When a patient takes antibitics t fight ff a bacterial infectin, the gal is t kill the bacteria causing the infectin. Hwever, althugh mst f the bacteria are killed, a few f the strngest bacteria survive. Thus, nly these drug-resistant bacteria are able t reprduce. This sets up a cycle and eventually results in the develpment f superbugs-bacteria able t resist even the mst pwerful drugs.
Scientists believe that a large part f this cycle is preventable. One recent study suggested that almst 50% f all antibitic use is inapprpriate r unnecessary. Sme patients are prescribed (开处方) antibitics fr illness that wuld eventually clear up n their wn. In additin, sme patients dn’t finish their curse f medicatin, allwing bacteria t bunce back, but strnger. All f these factrs cntribute t the rise and spread f superbugs.
Anther majr factr that prmtes the spread f drug resistance is the use f antibitics fr livestck (家畜). In the United States, 80% f antibitic use is fr animals. Partially, the drugs are used t prevent the spread f infectin amng animals. Hwever, farmers als use antibitics t help animals t gain weight quickly. Unfrtunately, such use is prblematic because it kills ff the beneficial bacteria, leaving drug-resistant strains f bacteria t thrive.
What can be dne t preserve antibitics fr future generatins? Scientists maintain that as individuals, we can make a difference with simple steps, such as regular hand washing. It is als imprtant that patients understand that antibitics aren’t always the right curse f treatment. Finally, it is crucial t take antibitics ut f the fd chain. Frtunately, cnsumers are pushing fr this, s we are likely t see changes in the near future.
32. Accrding t the passage, what are superbugs?
A. Effective and revlutinary antibitics.B. Small but pwerful drug-resistant bacteria.
C. Tiny rganisms fund under a micrscpe.D. Bacteria that culd harm animals and humans.
33. What prbably cntribute(s) t the rise and spread f superbugs?
A. The antibitics fr illness.B. Sme infected animals.
C. Patients’ awareness f treatment curse.D. The misuse f antibitics.
34. What’s the authr’s attitude twards the future f stpping superbugs?
A. Indifferent.B. Neutral.C. Pessimistic.D. Optimistic.
35. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A Superbugs — Preventable r nt?B. Antibitics — Beneficial r nt?
C. Superbugs — Deadly Drug-resistant BacteriaD. Antibitics — Majr Threats t Human Beings
