22、In times of economic crisis, Americans turn to their families for support. If the Great Depression is any guide, we may see a drop in our skyhigh divorce rate. But this won’t necessarily represent an increase in happy marriages. In the long run, the Depression weakened American families, and the current crisis will probably do the same.

We tend to think of the Depression as a time when families pulled together to survive huge job losses. By 1932, when nearly one-quarter of the workforce was unemployed, the divorce rate had declined by around 25% from 1929. But this doesn’t mean people were suddenly happier with their marriages. Rather, with incomes decreasing and insecure jobs, unhappy couples often couldn’t afford to divorce. They feared neither spouse (配偶) could manage alone.

Today, given the job losses of the past year, fewer unhappy couples will risk starting separate households. Furthermore, the housing market meltdown (暴跌) will make it more difficult for them to finance their separations by selling their homes.

After financial disasters family members also tend to do whatever they can to help each other and their communities. A 1940 book “The Unemployed Man and His Family”, described a family in which the husband initially reacted to losing his job “with tireless search for work”. He was always active, looking for odd jobs to do.

The problem is that such an impulse (冲动, 推动力) is hard to sustain (维持). Across the country, many similar families were unable to maintain the initial boost in morale (士气). For some, the hardships of life without steady work eventually overwhelmed (压垮, 击溃) their attempts to keep their families together. The divorce rate rose again during the rest of the decade as the recovery took hold.

Millions of American families may now be in the initial stage of their responses to the current crisis, working together and supporting one another through the early months of unemployment.

Today’s economic crisis could well generate (产生) a similar number of couples whose relationships have been irreparably (无法弥补地) ruined. So it’s only when the economy is healthy again that we’ll begin to see just how many broken families have been created.

【1】In the initial stage, the current economic crisis is likely to ________.

A．tear many troubled families apart

B．bring about a drop in the divorce rate

C．contribute to enduring family ties

D．cause a lot of conflicts in the family

【2】In the Great Depression many unhappy couples chose to stick together because________.

A．starting a new family would be hard

B．they expected things would turn better

C．they wanted to better protect their kids

D．living separately would be too costly

【3】In addition to job losses, what stands in the way of unhappy couples getting a divorce?

A．Mounting family debts.

B．A sense of insecurity.

C．Falling housing prices.

D．Difficulty in getting a loan.

【4】What will the current economic crisis eventually do to some married couples?

A．It will irreparably damage their relationship.

B．It will undermine (逐渐削弱) their mutual understanding.

C．It will help strengthen their emotional bonds.

D．It will force them to pull their efforts together.

【5】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A．The economic recovery will see a higher divorce rate.

B．Few couples can stand the test of economic hardships.

C．A stable family is the best protection against poverty.

D．Money is the foundation of many a happy marriage.

23、   Market traders and street vendors(小贩）are making a comeback across China,and this time they find themselves equipped with a new set of digital skills essential to directing the vast consumer market.To make mom-and-pop retail stands active,the country's leading e-commerce platforms are lending a helping hand,offering a series of services from inventory support to accessible financing backed by technologies to finally promote domestic(国内的）spending and employment.

Domestic wholesale site 1688.com is among the first group of tech players with such offerings. At the heart of the action plan is an effort to link street vendors directly with factories,effectively avoiding middlemen and saving time and costs."The large number of small-scale merchants on the site has managed to gain the upper hand in price negotiations,while manufacturers are more willing to mass-produce goods as the economy of scale serves to reduce costs,thus creating u win-win situation,"general manager Wang Hai said. On the financial front,1688's parent Alibaba Group is offering interest-free loans worth a total of 70 billion yuan ( $9.8 billion),with which qualified merchants can purchase goods in quantity.Risk assessment for each applicant is conducted by sister service Mybank.

Meanwhile,e-commerce giant JD.com has promised to secure quality goods worth more than 50 billion yuan and is offering each stall keeper up to 100,000 yuan worth of interest-free loans for the purpose of filling their inventory.To stabilize(稳定）employment,JD decided to add a number of job positions that either require flexible working hours,allow working from home or are designed to promote startup businesses. For posts related to logistics,delivery,warehouse management and packaging,people from poverty-stricken areas should be employed first.

＂The novel coronavirus outbreak will accelerate the digital transformation of the real economy, and individual traders and smaller stores are no exception,"said Xu Lei,CEO of JD' s retail unit.＂We have the ability and,more important,the responsibility to inject vitality(活力）into these entities,thus contributing to the economic rebound and stabilizing employment."

24、Teens shifting their focus from parents to peers is normal. The self-protective urge to pull away at this stage of parenting can be strong. After all, they don’t seem to need me or want me around, right?   【1】

Stand back and remember that this is not personal.

Children are trying to figure out what their relationship with their parents as an adult is going to look like. 【2】 It’s really painful to parents who are savoring every last moment with their teen under their roof to get their teenager annoyed at any proposal that the parent is using to try to pull them close. Nobody’s doing anything wrong. This is normal development.

Be a lighthouse.

Parents should reach an ideal balance —— “lighthouse parenting”. The adolescent years are a unique opportunity to support and influence our kids, if we can see through their apparent lack of interest in us and recognize how important we really are. As they’re growing, adolescents have a big job to try to answer this fundamental question, “Who am I?” 【3】 As our teens struggle to imagine themselves without us, they will sometimes actively push us away or give us the silent treatment.【4】

Remember that the lame duck experience will be temporary.

Interdependence often looks like once again living under one roof. So parents shouldn’t start counting down the days to that perfectly clean home just yet. Beneath teenagers’ too-cool-for-this exterior, there are soft spots that occasionally show themselves.【5】

A．Part of parent’s job is to wait patiently and non-judgmentally for them to appear.

B．And part of the answer is: ‘I am someone distinct and separate from my parents.’

C．Normal and even desirable as this stage is, it can be surprisingly hurtful for parents.

D．But the transition for parents from all-important to more of a barrier is often overlooked.

E．You should be a stable force for your children to measure themselves against and always return to.

F．But we shouldn’t take that outward expression of their struggle toward independence as evidence that we’re no longer needed.

G．But just as any parent at this stage may feel powerless, maybe this is a time to be more hands-on, just in a different way.

26、阅读下面短文,然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

Speaking of campus clubs, people usually think of conventional ones like roller-skating or music clubs. But now, society and club culture is seeing more diversity, with students interests covering a wide field.

Yu joined the club a month ago after he saw a big paper elephant on display at the society and club recruiting fair (招新大会). “It was made by the club chairman, who s my age,” says Yu. “His work aroused my interest in origami (折纸).” According to Yu, the club was formed by a group of students who love the art of origami. “Though I ve never tried origami before, I m impressed by their love of it and I want to learn it myself,” he says.

Other than treating societies and clubs as a way of entertainment, some students now use them to broaden their horizons, help their studies, and prepare for a future career. Some societies and clubs like this include extra tuition clubs, straight-A student clubs, and start-up business clubs.

Cui Ye, 19, is the co-founder of the straight-A student club at Beihang University. The economics major student wanted to improve her academic performance, so she set up the study club together with her friends. “The club has attracted dozens of students. We urge each other to study hard and practise self-study activities after class,” says Cui. “I think the club has made studying less boring and difficult.”
