21、A hospital has been forced to ban Pokemon Go players from the site after a monster hub (妖怪枢纽站) was found in the A&E department. Royal Stoke University Hospital discovered that its casualty unit(急诊室) is on the same spot as a Pokemon Go ‘gym’ —— where players can train their newly caught Nintendo creatures.

The University Hospitals of North Midlands Trust agreed last week that patients can play Pokemon Go on wards because walking around is healthy. But the Trust has been forced to post a warning on its website about public access to A&E. It said if Pokemon Go becomes a major annoyance it would ask Nintendo—— which decides on the locations of the virtual gyms according using GPS——to have it removed from the premises(道馆).

Kevin Parker, associate chief nurse, said, “Members of the public who do not need to be at Royal Stoke should not attempt to enter A&E or any other part of the hospital building to play the game. The A&E department is incredibly busy this summer. We want the public to understand that anybody who visits the hospital solely to play the game will provide an unwanted distraction to the important work of the hospital. I’m also aware of various reports in the media of unsafe areas that the game has been played in.”

“Royal Stoke University Hospital is a safe area where gamers can enjoy Pokemon Go.” Michelle Harris, the Trust’s manager, said the game could still be played by those already in hospital. “We recognize that the Pokemon Go game encourages walking and exercise, which is something that the Trust is equally keen to promote,” she said.

There are a number of “walking routes” established throughout the Trust that can be used to combine walking and playing the game. “Walking just 30 minutes, five times a week, can help reduce the risk of preventable illnesses such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.”

There have been several warnings about the game since its UK release. Last week a group of teenagers in Wiltshire were left stranded almost 100ft underground after they got carried away searching for Pokemon Go characters. The four boys, aged 16 and 17, ended up getting lost and had to wait to get a phone signal before they could call for help. Eventually, they contacted Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue team, who took them to safety. Damien Bence, of the fire and rescue team, said: “Pokemon Go is obviously leading people into dangerous situations.”

【1】It seems that Pokemon Go is a game______.

A．encouraging players to walk and exercise instead of staying indoors

B．helping cure such diseases as obesity, diabetes and heart disease

C．designed to help patients in hospital recover sooner

D．warning teenagers of the places easy to get lost or attacked

【2】The A&E department is incredibly busy because________.

A．more patients’ arrival increases the workload of the A&E department

B．doctors’ playing the game makes the A&E department less efficient

C．players’ injury increases the workload of the A&E department

D．players’ arrival disturbs the work of the A&E department

【3】The passage is mainly about________.

A．the popularity of Pokemon Go since its UK release

B．the applications of Pokemon Go in hospitals since its UK release

C．the negative effects of Pokemon Go since its UK release

D．the establishment of Pokemon Go virtual gyms since its UK release

23、   Brian arrived at the San Francisco airport two hours before the flight to Paris. He was wearing three shirts, a jacket, two pairs of socks, a pair of shorts, and two pairs of jeans. He was carrying one small backpack, which was very full, but he didn’t have any other luggage. Brian needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight. He found Tony near the Air France counter. Tony gave him a round-trip ticket and a small package.

“Give this package to Jean-Paul at the airport in Paris. He will have a sign with your name on it.

I think you can find him easily, “Tony said.” You don’t have any luggage, right?” “Only this backpack,” Brian answered. “You said I could bring one carry-on bag.” “That’s right, one carry-on bag is fine. Have a good trip.”

“Thanks.”

Is Brian a criminal? Not at all. He is an air courier. And he paid only $110 for the round-trip ticket to Paris. Air couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries. Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries by the next day. Often, the only way they can do this is to use an air-courier company. It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air courier, but it is quick.

Every year about 80, 000 people worldwide travel as air couriers. The number of tickets for courier travel is growing by about 10 percent a year. However, air-courier travel isn’t for everyone.

But if you have very little money, can be flexible(灵活的) about your travel plans, and don’t mind wearing the same clothes for a week, it can be a great way to take a vacation!

【1】Why was Brian wearing so many clothes for his travel?

A.Because they were the uniform for air couriers. B.Because that made him easier to be recognized.

C.Because his backpack had no room for his clothes. D.because he did not have any luggage with him.

【2】Businesses choose the air-courier service because ______.

A.it costs less B.it is flexible C.it saves time D.it grows fast

【3】One of the disadvantages of traveling as an air courier is that he ______.

A.cannot decide when and where to travel B.cannot take any luggage with him

C.has to wear two pairs of jeans D.saves little money from the travel

【4】The author of the text mainly ______.

A.describes the activities of a law-breaker B.suggests an ideal way to travel

C.argues against the air-courier travel D.tells us about a developing business

24、As children we are well-trained to find the right answer. We are rewarded for A's, the honor roll and acing the test. Our education trains us to follow the rules and deliver the expected answers. When we do, awards and congratulations follow. Yet when we grow up, it gets a little harder. Life and careers don’t have tests with an A if we get the “right” answer.

I recently had coffee with a college student who will graduate. She is struggling with what she wants for her career. She wants her parents to be proud of her and to continue the success she has had in school. She also talked about other students in her graduating class who are set to do "some big things," like working for impressive companies. Yet she wasn't sure of the right answer for using her degree. She said that deep down she was hoping that someone might give her the answer.

We both agreed that it comes down to not looking for the right answer, but her answer. The grown-up definition of the “right answer" is different than that in school. What would you do if you weren't afraid? It takes time to know these answers. And they can change over time and at any point in your career. My encouragement is to get valued advice and input, of course, but finally to look within yourself for the answers. It helps to come back to:

What do I want to be known for? What is my definition of success? What am I best at?

If I had no fears, what would I do?

What is one step I can take today to move me toward my goal (even if it's not perfectly clear)?

I find these types of questions are more helpful at getting to our unique answer rather than “right answer” questions, such as: What will my parents want? What degree or job will mark me as accomplished to the world? What is my best option based on where I work today?

【1】What does the author mean to say in the first paragraph?

A．Life is harder for adults than children.

B．Academic excellence is not necessary.

C．It is not helpful to follow the rules in school.

D．Rules in life are different from those in school.

【2】What is wrong with the college student?

A．She does badly in her studies.

B．Her parents are not proud of her.

C．She feels puzzled about her life career.

D．She is not sure whether to do" some big things".

【3】When looking for the answer in life, you need to .

A．trust your parents

B．listen to your heart

C．follow valued advice

D．learn from your classmates

【4】Which of the following questions might not help you to seek your answer?

A．What do I love to do?

B．What matters most to me in life?

C．What will make me look successful?

D．What will I regret not doing when I'm 80?

25、This month, I had an amazing opportunity to join in the voluntary activity. I went to Guatemala with a _________ from an organization I have supported for many years. I _________ some of my time in order to give back just a little of what I’m so fortunate to _________.

They came from surrounding towns, most having to _________ for an hour or more on a bus to get to our _________. The majority of them had never had an eye _________ before.

They waited for hours _________ in the sun, never complaining. If we could help them out, their _________ for a simple pair of glasses moved us beyond words. __________ those who left only with eye drops or sunglasses were thankful.

Glasses are something so simple and __________ here in America. Therefore, we may easily fail to see the __________ they made to people who have no access to them.

We are not doctor, and there were people we could not __________. But for those we could, we watched as their lives changed. I returned from this __________ trip with so much more than I took with me to give. What a(n) __________ our sight is--and what a difference being able to see clearly makes.
