Planned by the New Channel International Education Group with the participation of playwrights from China, the United Kingdom and the United States, the book provides a new way for young people to learn English while inheriting (继承) and spreading Chinese culture.

The book contains 20 English scripts in novel formats covering a wide range of subjects.

Readers can not only improve their English skills through immersive (沉浸式的) reading and performance but also appreciate Chinese culture.

The New Channel will offer special courses on Stories of China: Performed in English in its many schools across the country, and cooperate with primary and secondary schools in Beijing, Shanghai to offer English drama courses on a trial basis.

28、Walking around the shopping malls of Beijing, you will find a glass-enclosed mini karaoke booths, in which people are addicted to singing without blasting out loud music.

The booth houses a karaoke machine with a large touch screen, two barstools, two pairs of headsets and two microphones. Equipped with everything singers need in a KTV room, the new booth can be paid for online using apps such as WeChat and Alipay, and will automatically send the saved recordings to users, enabling them to share them on social networking platforms.

Luo Anwu, founder of U-sing mini karaoke, said the karaoke booth catered to people’s increasing need for entertainment. Our U-sing mini karaoke offers consumers a place to sing while socializing with their friends or other singers online.

From Beijing to Shenzhen, mini karaoke houses are being rolled out in shopping malls, cinemas, restaurants and even tourist spots in an effort to win back the past glory of KTV bars. Having received 60 million yuan ($8.72 million) in its latest round of financing, U-sing expects that the company will provide over 30,000 karaoke booths nationwide by 2017-end, according to Luo.

Nan Jiang, 27, tried the new self-service entertainment booths. “Generally, a standard mini karaoke booth will cost me 60 yuan per hour. I also can choose singing for only 15 minutes just before seeing movies. And I really love the recording function.”

However, these booths do have their tricks. In U-sing mini bars, users have the option of paying 12 yuan to sing one song or paying 30 yuan for 15 minutes. But the time spent selecting songs is also included in the 15 minutes, so many consumers only get to enjoy one or two songs for 30 yuan, making these booths much more expensive than traditional KTV outlets.

【1】Why is U-sing mini karaoke so popular nationwide?

A．It meets the demand of entertainment.

B．It offers people a free place to sing songs.

C．It has made more profits than KTV bars

D．It makes people addicted to singing.

【2】Which of the following is advantage of a mini karaoke booth?

A．It is easy to put up everywhere.

B．People can share songs through the Internet.

C．Consumers operate it without instruction.

D．It can choose songs for people automatically.

【3】Which of the following about U-sing mini karaoke is true?

A．Users are able to choose songs while seeing movies.

B．Fewer U-sing mini karaoke booths will be built.

C．The charging way is not pleasing.

D．The songs can’t be recorded.

【4】What is the author’s attitude to mini karaoke booths?

A．Disappointed.

B．Objective.

C．Negative.

D．Thankful.

29、Researchers are building a database of human voices that they’ll use to develop A-based tools that could eventually diagnose (诊断) serious ds eases; they’re targeting everything from Alzheimer’s to cancer. The National Institutes of Health-funded project is an effort to turn the human voice into something that could be used as a biomarker for disease, like blood or temperature.

The research team will start by building an app that will collect voice data from participants with conditions like Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, depression, and autism. They would be asked to say sounds, read sentences, and read full texts through the app.

Then, they’ll use the datasets to build AI models that could detect the various conditions. The research team is working with the medical AI company Owkin to build and train the AI models in the project. The model learns separately on each dataset, and then the results of those trainings comeback to a central location. Then, the updated combined model is sent back out to each of the locations, and the process begins again.

That lends an additional layer of privacy protection to the voice data, which is unique in that it can be easily tied back to the person it comes from. People’s voices are easily identifiable, even if their name is removed. A team of bioethicists (生物伦理学家) is working on the project to study whether it is morally and legally acceptable to build a voice database and to diagnose diseases based on it. They’re going to be thinking through, for example, if voice is protected and whether patients own their own voice data.

For now, the new research program isn’t interested in building programs for home devices. It’s focused on developing tools that would be used by doctors in doctor’s offices and clinics. It’d be particularly helpful in lower-resourced settings where someone might not be able to see a specialist.

【1】What do the second and third paragraphs focus on?

A．The research tools.

B．The research process.

C．The research method.

D．The research background.

【2】Who might benefit most from the project?

A．Some medical institutions.

B．Nursing homes for the elderly.

C．Villagers living in remote areas.

D．Citizens with access to family doctors.

【3】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A．Your voice might diagnose diseases.

B．AI models are built with joint efforts.

C．Voices are collected to cure diseases.

D．An app is being built to collect voice data.

四、短文填空（共1题，共 5分）

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be

used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Youth sport has the 【1】 to accomplish three important objectives in children’s development. First, sport programs can provide youth with opportunities to be 【2】 active, which can lead to improved physical health. Second, youth sport programs have long been considered important to youth’s psychosocial development, providing opportunities to learn important life skills such as cooperation, discipline, leadership, and self-control. Third, youth sport programs are 【3】 for the learning of motor skills(运动技能); these motor skills serve as a foundation for future national sport stars and recreational adult sport 【4】. When coachers develop activities for youth practices and when sport 【5】 design youth-sport programs, they must consider the implication of deliberate play and deliberate practice.

Research from Telama (2006) states that regular participation in deliberate play or deliberate practice activities during childhood and youth (ages nine to eighteen) increases the likelihood of participation in sports during adulthood by six times for both males and females. Côté (2002) defines deliberate play activities in sport as those designed to maximize enjoyment. These activities are regulated by flexible rules 【6】 from standardized sport rules and are set up by the children or by an involved adult. Children 【7】 change rules to find a point where their game is similar to the actual sport but still allows for play at their level. For example, children may change soccer and basketball rules to suit their needs and environment (e.g. in the street. on a playing field or in someone’s backyard). When 【8】 in deliberate play activities, children are less concerned with the outcome of their outcome of their behavior (whether they win or lose) than with the behavior (having fun).

On the other hand, Ericsson (1993) suggests that the most effective learning occurs through involvement in highly structured activities defined as deliberate practice. Deliberate practice activities require effort, produce no immediate rewards, and are 【9】 by the goal of improving performance rather than the goal of enjoyment. When individuals are involved in deliberate play, they experiment with different combinations of behaviors, but not necessarily in the most effective way to improve performance. In contrast, when 【10】 are involved in deliberate practice, they exhibit behavior. focused on improving performance by the most effective means available. For example, the backhand skill in tennis could be learned and improved over time by playing matches or by creating fun practice situations. However, players could more effectively improve their backhand performance by practicing drills that might be considered less enjoyable.

Although the drills used in most effective means available practice might not be the most enjoyable, they might be the most relevant to improving performance.

32、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

In the cold and plain living room, Matt is sitting in his chair. His eyes don’t shine anymore. He looks extremely old and weak. Today is his birthday, and he is by himself. The only thing that he has been doing all day is thinking about how sad and lonely his life is. As he was looking at some old pictures, he found one special with him and his friends from college. This picture brought back the days when he had friends and his life was full of happiness. Also, it brought him a sad memory. This memory happened forty years ago, during his last year of college.

Throughout college, Matt had a friend named Mark. Mark was tall and skinny. He wore thick glasses. He was shy, smart and responsible. Also, Mark didn’t have as many friends as Matt had. He considered Matt as his best friend. As good friends, they knew everything about each other, and they hung out. Also, they overcame many problems together. They were really good friends.

On his twenty-fourth birthday their life changed. On the night before his birthday, Mark called Matt, “Hi! Matt,” his voice sounded strange. He continued, “ I have an important project to work on. I’m having some problem with this. Maybe, you could come over and help me with it giving me some new ideas. Could you?” Matt asked, “What time?” Mark kept in silence for a minute, and then he said, “At 8 pm. Is it good for you?” Then Matt answered, “OK! See you later.” At that night, it was Matt’s birthday. So, he didn’t want to spend his birthday helping Mark with his project. Matt went to a club with some other guys.

The next morning, Matt noticed that Mark was acting differently. When he went to talk to Mark, Mark ignored him completely. He left the classroom without saying one word. As Mark was walking away, Matt said in an angry voice, “You are selfish. You are just thinking about yourself. I was having fun on my birthday. Why can’t you understand it?”
