21、   The full stop, which comes from Greek punctuation (标点符号), is usually used to express the end of a sentence but now it frightens young people when used in social media communication as a sign of anger.

According to experts, youngsters used to communicating electronically break up their thoughts by sending each one as a separate message, rather than using a full stop, which they use only to signal they are annoyed. Some have said the full stop is redundant when used in texting because the message is ended just by sending it. “If you send a text message without a full stop, it’s already obvious that you’ve concluded the message.”

Owen McArdle from Cambridge University told the newspaper: “I’m not sure I agree about emails. I guess it depends how formal they are. But full stops are very much the exception in youngsters’ instant messages, and have a new role in expressing anger.”

In 2015, a study from Binghamton University in New York suggested that people who finish messages with full stops are considered insincere. The study involved 126 undergraduates and the researchers found that text messages ending in the most final of punctuation marks-eg “lol.”, “let’s go to Nando’s.”-were considered being less sincere. Unusually, texts ending in an exclamation point-“lmao!”, “what body part even is that? I hope it’s your arm!” -are thought heartfelt.

Research leader Celia Klin said at the time: “When speaking, people easily convey social and emotional information with eye gaze, facial expressions, tone of voice, pauses and so on. People obviously can’t use these when they are texting. Thus, it makes sense that texters rely on what they have available to them-special signs, deliberate misspellings that imitate (模仿) speech sounds and, according to our data, punctuation.”

【1】What is the most likely reason for a young person to use a full stop when texting?

A.To show insincerity. B.To conclude the message.

C.To express his anger. D.To suggest it’s a formal message.

【2】Which of the following is similar to the underlined word “redundant” in paragraph2?

A.Irregular. B.Incorrect. C.Illogical. D.Unnecessary.

【3】What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?

A.The full stop is not as important as before.

B.The exclamation point is often used to show sincerity.

C.Punctuation is always associated with an angry tone of voice.

D.Deliberate misspellings are frequently used to convey emotions.

【4】What could be the best title of the passage?

A.A new punctuation. B.A new role of the full stop.

C.A new generation with annoyance. D.A new way of texting in communication.

22、How Can I Fight Laziness?

Lazy people will never amount to anything in life. However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.

【1】. Many people lack sleep constantly, since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. These people have little motivation once they arrive home. Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things. By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest, you can fight laziness throughout the day.

Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active. Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task. Others take a more proactive approach, viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone. 【2】

Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations that surround them. A television in the living room may provide entertainment, but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness. 【3】Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy, such as a good dinner or a film.

Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home. Couples and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately. 【4】 Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal. Others in the home may eventually follow your example and perform their own task. It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people.

【5】 Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle, thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits.

A．To fight family laziness, set an example.

B．Knowing how to fight laziness is important.

C．One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep.

D．Finally, taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness.

E．With strong determination, you will be able to achieve your goal.

F．Laziness sets in when you no longer feel in charge of your own life.

G．Create a reward system for yourself, just as parents do for a child.

24、A snow leopard stared down from a steep rock high in the peaks of Mongolia. She was on the lookout for a snack. Noticing a wild goat below, the snow leopard rocketed down the mountainside. The wild goat struggled to escape. But with one 30-foot leap, the cat caught up. Seconds later, she was secured her meal and looked for a place to enjoy it.

These endangered cats are nearly impossible to see. Their spotted coats act as invisible cloaks(披风)by mixing into the rocky mountains of the 12 Central Asian countries where the cats live. The mountains the snow leopards call home are rough and extremely cold in the winter. But these cats have some amazing body parts that make living in the area no big deal. In addition to hiding them, a snow leopard’s soft, thick fur keeps it warm in the bitter cold.

Few humans have seen snow leopards in real life, but hunting scenes like the one above have been recorded on video. Snow leopard experts need to gather more information about the secretive cats’ lives to help protect them. To do that, researches use high-tech tools to spy on the shy animals. They gently trap the wild cats to put on satellite radio collars to know where the cats wander.

Even though snow leopards live in some of the most rugged mountains on Earth, people pose the biggest threat to their survival. Poachers(盗猎者)can sell a snow leopard’s hide and bones for thousands of dollars. Sheepherders(牧羊人)often kill any snow leopard that attacks their sheep. Hunters target goats, wild sheep, and other animals for food-removing important snow leopard food. The more scientists can learn about snow leopards, the better they can protect these rarely seen cats from humans who harm them.

【1】What’s the function of the first paragraph?

A．To lead to the theme of the passage.

B．To describe how snow leopards hunt.

C．To show the main food of snow leopards

D．To show snow leopards have a good ability of adaption

【2】Why can snow leopards survive in extremely cold environment?

A．They don't go out in winter.

B．They have unique body characters.

C．Their living regions are large enough.

D．Their thick fur can help camouflage (伪装).

【3】How do researchers know more about snow leopards?

A．Spending more time searching for them.

B．Trapping snow leopards to examine them.

C．Using advanced technology to track them.

D．Surfing the internet to get more information.

【4】What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?

A．The process of researchers’ job.

B．The snow leopards, awful living conditions.

C．The threat that humans pose to snow leopards.

D．The reasons why some persons kill snow leopards.
