21、   Rising rates of depression(抑郁症) among American teenagers and young adults have led to a major question: Could the same devices being blamed for causing depression be used to find it?

Studies have linked heavy smartphone use with worsening teen mental health. But as teens spend time on sites, they also leave digital paths that may offer signs about their mental health.

Researchers are testing smartphone apps that use artificial intelligence, or AI, to predict depression. But there are still issues to address , including privacy(隐私) issues and making sure children give permission to be closely followed.

App developers say that effective, widely available depression-detecting(检测)apps may arrive soon. Using smartphones as mental health detectors would require permission from users to download an app. They could take back their permission at any time,

If smartphones can become effective predictors, app developers say the goal might be to offer digital messages to parents or doctors.

At the University of California, Los Angeles, researchers are offering an experimental phone app to students who show signs of minor depression. Alyssa Lizarraga, who is 19, is among those being studied. She has had depression since high school. Lizarraga has worried about her heavy use of smartphones and social media. She said comparing herself with others online sometimes causes her sadness. But she believes using smartphones to identify mental health problems might help push people to seek early treatment.

At the University of Illinois' Chicago campus, researchers are testing their experimental phone app. Anyone can download the free app, and nearly 2 ,000 students have so far. All agreed to let the researchers follow things such as their typing behaviors. The study is for people 18 and up, but it could also be used for children if successful.

Along with studies at universities, technology companies such as Mindstrong and Verily—the tech health division of Google—are testing their own experimental apps.

【1】How can we know about teen's mental health through smartphone?

A.By checking the sites they've surfed. B.By checking teens' signs of depression.

C.Form the sensor(传感器) installed in their phone. D.From digital messages offered by teens.

【2】What challenge do the researchers face to test apps?

A.Where to download the app for teens. B.Getting the permission from teens.

C.Not enough smartphones for teens. D.Teens don't like using smartphones.

【3】What's Alyssa's attitude towards the depression-detecting app?

A.Indifferent. B.Negative. C.Supportive. D.Cautious.

【4】What can be the best title for this text?

A.Use Smartphone Apps to Cure Teen Depression. B.The Scientific Method to Cure Teen Depression.

C.The Advantage of Using Smartphone for Teens. D.Phone Apps May soon Predict Teen Depression.

22、We’ve all been there: in a lift, in line at the bank or on an airplane, surrounded by people who are, like us, deeply focused on their smartphones or, worse, struggling with the uncomfortable silence.

What’s the problem? It’s possible that we all don’t have enough conversational ability. It’s more likely that none of us start a conversation because it’s embarrassing and challenging, or we think it’s annoying and unnecessary. But the next time you find yourself among strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble. Experts say it’s a valuable social practice that leads to big benefits.

It is easy to consider small talk as unimportant, but we can’t forget that deep relationships wouldn’t even exist if there weren’t casual conversations. Small talk is the grease (润滑剂) for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast. “Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk,” he explains. “The secret to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them.”

In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, professor of psychology at UBC, invited people to a coffee shop. One group was asked to interact (互动) with its waiter; the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience. “It’s not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband,” says Dunn. “But interactions with peripheral (边缘的) members of our social network is important for our happiness and health.”

Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a greater sense of belonging, a link with others. Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with small talk. “Small talk is the basis of good manners,” he says.

【1】What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph?

A．Addiction to smartphones.

B．Impatience with slow service.

C．Improper behaviors in public places.

D．Absence of communication between strangers.

【2】What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci?

A．Keeping in touch with other people.

B．Showing good manners.

C．Making business deals

D．Focusing on a topic

【3】What does the coffee-shop study suggest about small talk?

A．It improves family relationships.

B．It makes people feel good.

C．It raises people’s confidence

D．It matters as much as a formal talk.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

A．Strengths of Small Talk

B．Ways of Making Small Talk

C．Conversation Counts

D．Uncomfortable Silence

24、   Inside Out is one of my favorite Disney / Pixar movies. The story is about a young girl named Riley who moves from Minnesota to San Francisco with her family and how she deals with her emotions (情感) through the move. These five emotions in Riley's brain are Joy, Fear, Anger, Disgust (厌恶) and Sadness. These emotions play a very important role in her life. I can understand because I am an 11-year-old girl and I am very in touch with my emotions and pre-teen feelings.

The film is extremely beautiful and you couldn't ask for better direction from Pete Doctor. The use of the right colors for the characters is great. For example, Joy is yellow, Sadness is blue, Disgust is green, Fear is purple and Anger of course is red. Sadness plays a main role in the story and it makes me wonder why we are told not to be sad. I think it's important to be sad when the time comes. The end of the movie pretty much got me and the whole audience (观众) (families, couples and even elderly people) in tears and I cried very hard.

I recommend (推荐) this movie for anyone from 8 to 18 because it has enough joy in it for younger kids to like it even though it does have some sad moments. I believe that adults will like it too. And I give it 4 out of 5 stars because it connects to an older audience even though it is designed for a younger audience. I think younger children can see this, but a parent would have to explain some things to them after the movie.

【1】The author feels connected with the movie because she and the character Riley _____.

A. enjoy the same movie B. have the same feelings

C. have the same move experience D. have a similar family background

【2】What does the author think of Pete Doctor's job?

A. Wonderful. B. Just so-so.

C. Bad. D. Disappointing.

【3】After seeing the movie, the author has a new understanding of _____.

A. fear B. sadness

C. anger D. joy

【4】In the author's eyes, the movie _____.

A. won't attract people over 18 B. is really unsuitable for children

C. will be popular among kids and adults D. can easily be understood by younger kids

25、   On a cold winter night, when the moon was shining clearly, and the snow lay on the ground, two foxes started out on a hunt to obtain something to satisfy their hunger. In order to _______ time on the boring way, they sang and frisked, as they walked along.

For some time, they were _______ in their hunt. Neither in the wood, _______ on the plain, not in the valley, nor on the hill, could they discover even a goose(鹅) or a _______.

Looking _______ in, their eyes _______ as they saw the farmer’s fattest chickens sitting inside, without a thought of the approaching _______.

Finding a hole _______ which they could enter with _______, they hurried in, and speedily secured those unprotected chickens.

One of them, too much ________ for a second thought, abandoned(放纵) himself without limit to the ________ before him. The other, however, having looked carefully about him, concluded it best to control his appetite.

In fact, he had noticed that the opening which had just permitted them to ________ their way through was extremely small. He thought that if, slim and half-starved, they could barely enter, but to pass out at the same place after a rich meal could be totally ________. What, then, would become of him, if suddenly ________, and he had to escape for his life?

Just as morning began to dawn, who should appear ________ the farmer himself? His eye instantly fell ________ the two foxes, and seizing a wooden pole, he ________ the trembling criminals hard.

The cautious one, who had denied ________, escaped through the opening by which he had entered. But the other, attempting to follow him, ________ firmly, and, being unable either to get through the hole or ________ back, was easily killed by the angry farmer.

26、Directions: Write a summary of the passage with no more than 80 words and the original sentences in the passage are not allowed to use.

Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.

During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as, “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.

You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. If your energy is low in the morning, but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point.

Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.
