21、Even in challenging economic times, making sure that study abroad is part of our college students’ education is an important investment (投资). If we want a new generation of leaders who can be productive in an ever more globalized world, sending our students overseas is not a luxury (奢侈). It’s a necessity.
Learning in a different culture and place allows us to see our own challenges as we observe smart people in other lands dealing with similar problems.
American college students understand the value of study abroad. Four out of every five first-year students expect to study overseas. But at any given time, only about 2% of students are able to. Educators are especially concerned that the lack of chance for students from poor socioeconomic backgrounds will cause a “global divide” between students who’ve benefited from a global education and those who haven’t. And students for whom foreign travel is not easily affordable are the ones who benefit most from the experience. As a society, we can help improve the education of our younger generation, and brighten their futures, by making this experience more available.
Is now the time to use valuable public money to send college kids overseas? Of course. Our world is one big, rapidly developing marketplace. Employers long for graduates who are multilingual (使用多种语言的) and comfortable in multicultural settings. Study abroad sharpens these skills and helps keep American workers competitive.
Americans who want our next generation to be hands-on with the world — working with international partners against challenges, working competitively in a globalized economy, and having enthusiasm rather than anxiety about other cultures and approaches to existing problems — can get on board with the movement to help our students get a globalized education. Encourage the young people in your lives to get a passport and see the world as a classroom. It's good for America. And it’s fun.
【1】What is the author’s attitude towards study abroad?
A.Negative.
B.Doubtful.
C.Favorable.
D.Cautious.
【2】What do educators worry about?
A.Students not being able to study abroad.
B.Poor students not receiving a good education.
C.A possible future “global divide” among students.
D.Students not being able to deal with cultural differences.
【3】According to Paragraph 4, study abroad _____.
A.is a huge waste of public money.
B.helps increase students’ competitiveness.
C.makes students aware of the challenges they’ll face.
D.teaches students how to work with international partners.
【4】It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _____.
A.America’s next generation will face many difficulties.
B.the author is greatly concerned about America’s future.
C.Americans are trying hard to get a globalized education.
D.the author is worried about young people’s development.
22、It is natural that young people are often uncomfortable when they are with their parents. They say that their parents don’t understand them. They often think that their parents are out of touch with modern ways, that they are too serious and too strict with their children, and that they seldom give their children a free hand.
It is true that parents often find it difficult to win their children’s trust and they tend(倾向) to forget how they themselves felt when young.
For example, young people like to act on the spot without much thinking. It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up and they can face any difficult situation. Old people worry more easily. Most of them plan things in advance, at least in the back of their minds, and do not like their plans to be upset by something unexpected.
When you want your parents to let you do something, you will have better success if you ask before you really start doing it.
Young people often make their parents angry with their choices in clothes, in entertainment and in music. But they do not mean to cause any trouble; it is just that they feel cut off from the older people’s world, into which they have not yet been accepted. That’s why young people want to make a new culture of their own, and if their parents don’t like their music or entertainment or clothes or their way of speech, this will make the young people extremely happy.
Sometimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want your parents to say “yes” to what you do. All you want is to be left alone and do what you like. It is natural enough, after being a child for so many years, when you were completely under your parents’ control.
If you prefer to control your life, you’d better win your parents over and try to get them to understand you. If your parents see that you have a high sense of responsibility, they will certainly give you the right to do what you want to do.
【1】According to the text, young people prefer to __________.
A. ask for advice before they really start to do anything
B. think in the same way as their parents do
C. be very strict with themselves
D. do things without thinking carefully ahead
【2】Why do young people like to have clothes, entertainment and music in their way?
A. Because they want to try on something new and look different from the older.
B. Because they try to get their parents to be proud of them.
C. Because they want to give their parents a big surprise.
D. Because they want to test whether they are cleverer than old people.
【3】According to the text, young people want to make a new culture of their own, because _________.
A. they feel they are cleverer than old people
B. they do not want to get into trouble with their parents
C. they don’t feel they belong to the world of the old people
D. they want to show the new is better than the old
【4】If a young man intends to control his own life, it’s better for him to __________.
A. do everything according to his own wish
B. hold himself responsible for everything he does
C. do everything beyond his parents’ control
D. do everything the way his parents do
23、In Australia, November is the final exam season, and for high school students, it’s one of the most important exams. 【1】 It is a stressful period for everyone. However, from my countless exam experiences, I have some tips and tricks that have helped me handle final exams.
Start early.
Although the official exam preparation period starts about one week before the final exam period, I usually start my review about two weeks earlier. Let’s admit it — no one in week 12, after being bombarded by countless assignments and tests will have any memory about the content taught in week one. 【2】 This helps me identify the parts that I do not understand very well, so that I can catch up, ask questions when teachers are not so busy and prepare myself to do practice exams later more efficiently.
Live healthily.
A lot of people stay up late reviewing before the exam, but that is not healthy at all. Sleep is necessary to restore our physical and mental functions. In particular, sleep can help consolidate (巩固) our memories! I recommend this based on my personal experience — I always feel drained the next day if I go to sleep after 2 am. Without enough sleep, I cannot stay productive and would stare at simple questions for a long time. 【3】
【4】
This may not work for everyone, but I personally find it helpful, especially after the long lockdown where I was stuck at home and studied alone. Having friends to study with not only provides us with opportunities to figure out blind spots in our understanding, but also allows us to have different perspectives, which is helpful in terms of problem-solving. 【5】 And talking to them can ease my anxiety caused by the exams. I personally recommend it.
A.Study with friends.
B.Reviewing your lessons earlier gives you a definite advantage over others.
C.Also, the presence of friends can motivate me to stay productive.
D.Get along well with friends
E.So November is a month for studying hard!
F.Sacrificing sleep time for review is not worth it.
G.I usually go through the notes I took throughout the semester to refresh my memory.
24、Five Health Facts Your Doctor Wants You to Know
1. Cold weather makes you sick.
Myth! Germs (病菌) are the only thing that can make you sick. You can go out in the freezing cold with wet hair, and if there aren’t any germs around, you'll stay sniffle-free. But there is a correlation:【1】
2. You shouldn’t ice a burn.
Truth! Most skin damage from a burn comes from the inflammatory (发炎) response, and ice can damage cells and make it worse. 【2】 Then wash with mild soap and apply an antibiotic (抗生素) ointment.
3. Antiperspirants (止汗剂) cause cancer.
Myth! Antiperspirants temporarily keep sweat from escaping, and some scientists have suggested that letting it build up in the ducts could cause tumors(肿瘤). 【3】 And the largest study to date on the subject has found no link between cancer and antiperspirants.
4.【4】
Truth! A 2017 study found that when bystanders gave CPR to people in cardiac arrest (心脏停搏), survival rates were higher when they employed uninterrupted chest compressions rather than pausing for rescue breaths.
5. Eating too much sugar will give you diabetes.
Myth! Sweet foods don’t directly lead to chronically (慢性地) high blood sugar. But they can contribute to obesity, which is a risk factor for diabetes. 【5】
A.Germs are active if you have a cold.
B.But research hasn’t confirmed that theory.
C.CPR doesn’t require mouth-to-mouth breathing.
D.Therefore, it’s inappropriate to deal with the burn with ice.
E.Instead, first immerse the burn in cool water for about five minutes.
F.So keeping a well-balanced diet and limiting treats is still the right idea.
G.The germs that cause the common cold grow energetically in low temperatures.

26、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Annie’s eyes popped open Friday morning. She hurried downstairs and began to have her breakfast quickly.
“What’s the rush, early bird?” Dad asked. “Today’s my spelling test. Dad,” Annie said. “Mrs. Page promised a prize to everyone who gets 100 percent. I’ve studied the list all week. The words are hard, but I’m ready.”
Annie studied the spelling of each word again as Mom drove her to school. Finally, it was time for the test. “Impatient,” Mrs. Page began. Annie wrote down the word correctly and quickly.
“Word number two: weird,” Mrs. Page said.
“Easy,” Annie thought. She quickly wrote it on her paper.
Twenty-three words later, Mrs. Page collected the test papers. “I’ll mark your papers during lunch,” she told the class. After lunch Mrs. Page said, “Several of you earned a prize today for perfect test scores. Tracy, Jonas, Olivia, and Annie all scored 100 percent on the test!”
Annie smiled as she walked to the front of the room. Mrs. Page gave each of the four students a nice pencil. Annie’s was silver, pink, and blue — her favorite colors. She held the beautiful pencil high while the class clapped. “This is one of my best days ever,” Annie thought as she sat down.
Mrs. Page handed back the test paper and Annie read the words over, proud of the hard words she had spelled. Suddenly she stopped at the word “weird”. It didn’t look right. Annie pulled out the study list and made a comparison. “W-i-e-r-d,” she whispered. She had spelled it wrong.
“What should I do?” Annie wondered. “I want my classmates to think I’m a great speller. If I tell Mrs. Page I’ll have to give back my prize, or I will become an example for telling a lie.”
Annie stared at the test paper with the big red “100%” written at the top. Then she thought of a lesson Dad taught her when she was very young, “We should always be honest.”
