21、The US tech giant Microsoft Corp and the leadership consulting firm DDI worked together on a new project on Thursday, with the goal of helping more than 1 million women in China improve their digital skills and embrace the digital future.

The Women Digital Future project came as reports show that women have been more negatively impacted by the COVID-19 than men, and an improvement in digital skills is expected to help them better deal with the bad results from it.

Microsoft said it will partner with a number of companies and organizations to help women in multiple ways, as COVID-19 has accelerated digital transformation worldwide and women are faced with more challenges in both life and work.

Alain Crozier, chairman and CEO of Microsoft Greater China, said, “Microsoft has always placed a high value on the development of our female employees and strongly promoting the power of women to drive the world forward.”

Mindy Yeh, managing director of Greater China, said the company’s global survey shows that there are nearly double the number of female leaders at the top 20 percent of well-performing companies than in the bottom 20 percent. Moreover, they have clear advantages in terms of teamwork and interaction.

Cecilia Qi, general manager of GSK China, said, “Digital transformation is both an opportunity and a challenge for women. This is especially the case in the new era, which requires companies to provide women with more support to help them achieve better work-life balance and continue to gain success as they continue forward in their career. Success belongs to everyone, and I believe that, in the future, society will be more supportive of women and provide them with more equal career opportunities.”

【1】What is the main purpose of the new project?

A．To teach women how to fight against COVID-19.

B．To teach women how to recover from COVID-19.

C．To help women better prepare for the digital future.

D．To help women become leaders in top 20 companies.

【2】What does the underlined word “accelerated” mean in paragraph 3?

A．Proved.

B．Destroyed.

C．Speeded up.

D．Slowed down.

【3】What do the figures in paragraph 5 show?

A．Women leaders can earn more money.

B．Women achieve better life-work balance.

C．Women are healthier in these companies.

D．Women leaders perform better in some fields.

【4】According to Cecilia Qi, what is the major challenge for women?

A．Women need to work closely with their team members.

C．Women need to provide more support and opportunities to men.

D．Women need to receive support to achieve a balance between work and life.

22、A new report shows that most American fourth and eighth graders did not do well in math and reading tests. The latest so-called “Nation' s Report Card” was published last week.

There were some exceptions. Students in Washington, D. C. made important gains in both reading and math this year, according to the National Assessment of Education Progress. Students in the state of Mississippi also made major improvements compared to earlier reports.

Nationally, however, America' s eighth graders are falling behind in math and reading. And, math scores among fourth graders also decreased. Only a little more than one-third of eighth graders are proficient in reading and math. About a third of fourth graders are proficient readers. Over 40 percent are considered proficient in math.

U. S. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos said the overall national results show a student achievement crisis(危机). She also said the problem cannot be fixed by giving more money to public schools. Instead, she called for expanded school choice. This includes her suggestions for greater dependence on privately run schools.

DeVos said last week that American children continue to fall behind students of the same grade in other countries. But with education freedom, American students can compete.

Scott Sargrad is with the Center for American Progress. He writes about education at the kindergarten through 12th grade levels, or K-12. He thinks DeVos is wrong and that “money matters in education.” The falling scores are because of lower spending on education following the Great Recession(经济衰退) of 2008.

【1】What does the latest Nation's Report Card tell us about American students?

A．None of the American students do well in math.

B．The majority of eighth graders are poor at reading.

C．Fourth graders in Mississippi fall behind those in other states.

D．Students from Washington, D. C. made no improvements at all.

【2】What does the underlined word “proficient” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A．Poor.

B．Skilled.

C．Slow.

D．Puzzled.

【3】Why does Betsy DeVos think the crisis arises?

A．Because of schools’ poor management.

B．Because of a lack of money in education.

C．Because of limited educational freedom.

D．Because of students ’dependence on schools.

【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A．K-12 is an educational institute.

B．Scott Sargrad is in favor of DeVos’ideas.

C．Spending more money on education is the solution.

D．Many educational problems led to the Great Recession.

23、   I received my autoimmune disease diagnosis (自身免疫疾病诊断) in 2009, and for the first few months, I was in a very bad place. I was suffering from severe anxiety and panic attacks on a daily basis. I was no longer able to function as a “normal” person. During that time, all I could do at best was to move about the house trying to do some easy housework, and prepare meals.

After a few months on the Paleo Autoimmune Protocol, my intense tiredness improved and I slowly regained some energy. That is when I tried to follow my doctor's advice to exercise.

I clearly remember my first attempt. I was still weak, but somehow, I thought that if I could push through and pretend I had a normal life that things would get better. So, I went out and started running in the little neighborhood park. Unfortunately, I didn't last even five minutes and came back home, totally crashed. It took me several days to recover. After that first brush with exercise, I understood that I would have to start slow.

I began going on daily walks with my husband around the block. Slowly, we went further and further, and my strength came back progressively.

After walking, I started to attend yoga classes. I remember barely making it through my first class. My muscles were weak and trembling (颤抖) by the time I rolled up my mat. But I was also so happy to be able to get out of the house, mix with other people and have a social life!

After yoga, I ventured into activities a little bit more strenuous (费力的), but still gentle on the joints. I was going to the swimming pool to do laps and riding my bike. Recently, after almost four years on the Paleo Autoimmune Protocol, I was finally able to start exercising regularly with a personal trainer.

【1】What may the author learn from her first attempt to exercise?

A.Darkest hour is just before the dawn.

B.Where there is will, there is a way.

C.More haste, less speed.

D.Practice makes perfect.

【2】How did the author find her first yoga class?

A.Helpless but fun. B.Tiring but rewarding.

C.Amusing but challenging. D.Relaxing but disappointing.

【3】What can we know from the author’s experience?

A.Exercising contributes to good health.

B.Mood plays a vital role in one’s recovery.

C.Doctor’s advice should be strictly followed.

D.Connecting with people makes little difference.
