21、We live in a town with three beaches. There are two parts less than 10 minutes’ walk from home where neighborhood children gather to play. However, what my children want to do after school is pick up a screen — any screen — and stare at it for hours. They are not alone. Today’s children spend an average of four and a half hours a day looking at screens, split between watching television and using the Internet.
In the past few years, an increasing number of people and organisations have begun coming up with plans to counter this trend. A couple of years ago film-maker David Bond realised that his children, then aged five and three, were attached to screens to the point where he was able to say “chocolate” into his three-year-old son’s ear without getting a response. He realised that something needed to change, and, being a London media type, appointed himself “marketing director from Nature”. He documented his journey as he set about treating nature as a brand to be marketed to young people. The result was Project Wild Thing, a film which charts the birth of the World Network, a group of organisations with the common goal of getting children out into nature.
“Just five more minutes outdoors can make a difference,” David Bond says. “There is a lot of really interesting evidence which seems to be suggesting that if children are inspired up to the age of seven, then being outdoors will be on habit for life.” His own children have got into the habit of playing outside now: “We just send them out into the garden and tell them not to come back in for a while.”
Summer is upon us. There is an amazing world out there, and it needs our children as much as they need it. Let us get them out and let them play.
【1】What is the problem with the author’s children?
A.They often annoy their neighbours.
B.They are tired of doing their homework.
C.They have no friends to play with
D.They stay in front of screens for too long.
【2】How did David Bond advocate his idea?
A.By making a documentary film.
B.By organizing outdoor activities.
C.By advertising in London media.
D.By creating a network of friends.
【3】 Which of the following can replace the underlined word “charts” in paragraph 2?
A.records
B.predicts
C.delays
D.confirms
【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Let Children Have Fun
B.Young Children Need More Free Time
C.Market Nature to Children
D.David Bond: A Role Model for Children

23、 “The music will not vanish!” said Zhang Yadong, a famous Chinese music producer, in an interview with CGTN, expressing his strong belief in the power of today’s young musicians.
China’s new popular variety show “The Big Band,” debuted in May, is bringing some incredibly talented Chinese rock hands into the mainstream. As one of the judges, or “Super Fans”, Zhang has grabbed the spotlight for his professional remarks on the show. Zhang, who started his career as a music producer in the early 1990s, has composed, recorded and produced several hit songs and albums for notable Chinese singers and bands.
Although Zhang admitted the importance of having a unique style and innovative music, he emphasized the necessity of hard work. He said he respects talent, but he doesn’t think it is reliable. “Music is my profession, which cannot just rely on talent,” he said, “I have to work hard to keep myself sharp all the time.”
According to a 2018 report by the Communication University of China, nearly 30 percent of Chinese musicians earn nothing from their music and 70 percent have to find part-time jobs. “The cost is quite high for today’s music producers, who need the support of expensive equipment,” said Zhang. “It is convenient for users to download unauthorized content, but musicians may lose their motivation to create new content because their efforts seem to have.
I gone in vain. ” Luckily, music copyrights have been strengthened as numerous policies to crack down on pirated music on the Internet have come into effect. Zhang agrees that these measures are helpful, and that record companies should not sign unequal contracts with musicians by taking advantage of their desire to be famous.
Decades have passed since Zhang came to Beijing to pursue his dream. Chinese popular music, meanwhile, has continued to transform and develop. Zhang said today’s young musicians are more stressed due to fiercer competition. However, he thinks they are hopeful and should not be underestimated. “I believe the changes are from quantity to quality,” said Zhang. “I hope more people can write songs and fall in love with music.” For more: click here.

24、In early January this year, I decided that it was high time for me to return to the world of academic studies. It wasn’t that I longed to be in the daily company of young people or to become a model father for my children. That was the year I finally decided to re-enter the world of academia in an effort to earn a degree and emerge (显现) as an educated naturalist.
I was convinced that the curriculum administrators of my local college would agree that since I had not, during the past two decades, used any mathematical equations (方程式), there would be no reason for me to study geometry and algebra at this stage of my life. I was wrong. Thus it was in late June that I found myself searching for a math course that would occupy the next two months of my summer.
You might think that registering for a math course would be a fairly simple matter, but very little came easy to me. Such was the case when I attempted to sign up for Math 108.
When I was finally in class, I found myself pouring through a textbook that could only be described as full of the most confusing terms and problems. Just then, a voice from deep within my heart whispered, “Gary, you can do it. You will make it through the fires of math and emerge with an ‘A’ for your efforts.”
Over the next two months, I not only listened to the voice, but also to Pete’s wonderful teachings. In addition, I devoted what seemed to be hundreds of hours to my homework assignments and preparation for tests.
I emerged from my experiences with Math 108 as the top student in the class. In fact, I was the only person to get an “A” for the course.
【1】Why did the author decide to go back to college?
A.To receive further education.
B.To have a totally new career.
C.To set a good example for his children.
D.To seek the company of young people.
【2】What does the author mean by saying “I was wrong” underlined in paragraph 2?
A.He was actually good at math.
B.He was required to take a math course.
C.He gave up studying geometry and algebra.
D.He had used some mathematical equations.
【3】How did the author react when facing difficulties in math?
A.He lost confidence.
B.He encouraged himself.
C.He chose another subject.
D.He asked other students for help.

Dudik continues to explore how the ________ swings affect the average Americans dreams after the 2008 recession. “In many ways, the United States is a(n)________ landscape since then; but in far too many ways, it hasn’t changed at all.
