21、   Playing video interactive games, and later computer games, has been a big part of people’s lives ever since the birth of Pong and gaming consoles (游戏机) in the early 1970s. But games have progressed steadily since those early days. Now online games are being played worldwide by people of all ages.

While many people tend to think of gamers as people who sit alone on their couches and anonymous to other players, the opposite is actually true according to the BBC. With the rise in popularity of games, people, especially for those in Generation Z, have built communities and friendships with their fellow players. These connections have become a social lifeline during these times of social distancing and lockdowns (活动限制).

While TV and Netflix help people pass the time, there is no interaction between people like the ones found in gaming and the amount of time people play has seriously increased during the COVID-19 pandemic (疫情). In fact, in the US, gamers are now playing an average of 6 hours and 46 minutes weekly. And the numbers keep going up.

Twitch, which is owned by Amazon, where people can watch other people play videogames in real time webcasts and can chat with other viewers, actually clocked 5 billion hours of viewed content in the second quarter of 2020. That was an 83 percent increase from 2019 and a new record. But this increase in gaming is about much more than just entertainment. “This isn’t just out of boredom but an inner desire to be social. New gaming capabilities allow people to communicate with one another virtually,” said Nigel Burmeister, vice president of Limelight Networks. That’s because humans are naturally social and human contacts are necessary for our mental health.

Rosemary “Nekkra” Kelley, a 25-year-old gamer, told USA Today that she’s spending a lot more time playing games because her work has been curtailed due to the cancellation of live events. In her extra time, she has been playing Pokémon Sword and Animal Crossings on her Nintendo Switch.

【1】What idea does the author convey in Paragraph 2?

A．Gamers appear to be lonely.

B．Gamers take friendship seriously.

C．Playing games benefits players.

D．Some gamers hate social interaction.

【2】What is the disadvantage of Netflix?

A．It causes people to waste time.

B．Its content holds little attraction.

C．It lacks newly-developed games.

D．It gives people no chance to interact.

【3】Why are Nigel Burmeister’s words mentioned?

A．To state what research he takes up.

B．To analyze why Twitch is popular.

C．To make people aware of their nature.

D．To encourage people to interact with one another.

【4】What does the underlined word “curtailed” in the last paragraph mean?

A．Shortened.

B．Simplified.

C．Adapted.

D．Influenced.

22、   Nowadays, money has become intangible (不易度量的). Household shopping is done online pocket money is stored in an electronic wallet rather than a piggy bank. Children rarely see their parents handling cash and they are spending online, too.【1】

The answer is GoHenry, an app with separate versions for parents and children, now available both in America and Britain.【2】To use the app, parents need to sign up with their own bank accounts and pay a monthly fee for their kids. They can see what the child has bought and choose where the card can be used: in shops, online or at ATMs. They can also schedule pocket money and set tasks.【3】

Children get debit cards (借记卡) carved with their name.【4】For example, they can decide to save ten dollars for a friend's birthday in four weeks' time. The app tells them how much to save each week to meet the goal.

Similar to a fitness app, GoHenry gives children feedback on their financial management and motivates them to spend better and save. A big benefit of such an app is that it inspires family conversations about money.

GoHenry has gained popularity since it entered the market. Parents sign up for different purposes. Some regard the subscription as an investment in their children’s future.【5】Others uses it as a way for their children to learn to budget.

A.Some say they’ve been in debt and want their children to avoid that mistake when they grow up.

B.They can set a goal at the age of 12 to have $ 2,000 to buy a car at 18.

C.They can put money in saving pots, view their spending and balances, and set saving targets.

D.How, then, can children learn money’s value and gain money-management skills?

E.When those are marked as done, the child is paid the agreed amount.

F.The app helps children form good financial habits through real-world money management.

G.Though they no longer touch or hold money, they can still be taught to handle it well.

23、A ground-based system that uses much stronger signals than GPS can find your location in cities and indoors. It is a new positioning system that could compete with GPS to make sure you never lose your directions again.

Instead of satellites, Locata uses ground-based equipment to send a radio signal over a localized area that is a million times stronger on arrival than GPS. It can work indoors as well as outdoors, and the makers claim that the receivers can be shrunk(缩小) to fit inside a regular cell phone. Even the US armies, which invented GPS technology, signed a file last month agreeing to a test of Locata at the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico.

“This is one of the most important technology developments for the future of the positioning industry,” says Nunzio Gambale, CEO and co-founder of the firm Locata, based in Griffith, Australia.

As for the Locata’s correctness, Christopher Morin of the US Air Force tested it recently at White Sands, and it worked to within 18cm along any axis(轴). Morin said it should be possible to get the exactitude down to 5cm.

The tests were performed in an open desert where GPS also worked beautifully, but its signal was weak—like a car headlight from 20,000 kilometers away—and easily cut off by solid objects(实心的物体). Locata’s signal was far stronger, though not guaranteed to work in a complex urban environment, said David, speaker of the UK’ s General Lighthouse Authorities.

Locata’s technology will face competition in the race to transform indoor navigation. But it could shine in specific areas, Gambale said. Robots with Locata could easily navigate inside buildings without the complex optical(视觉的) systems they need at the moment. And the process that handles correct location data could not only guide you around a mall, railway station or airport, but also take you to the exact shelf in a shop for the product you want. It would be small and cheap enough for smart phones and it should be available within five years—a similar path to the one GPS took on its way towards the world, he said.

【1】The passage is written mainly to ______.

A. encourage people to buy the Locata

B. tell us the disadvantages of the GPS

C. introduce a new positioning system Locata

D. tell us that Locata will replace GPS one day

【2】Which of the following is NOT true about Locata?

A. Without the help of the satellites, Locata can tell you where you are.

B. Locata will be popular with most people even including the US armies.

C. Locata has a better signal than GPS in some bad environments.

D. In five years, Locata will take the place of GPS.

【3】According to the passage, Gambale______.

A. did the experiment at White Sands last month

B. believed the Locata would help to develop smart robots’ creation

C. doubted whether Locata can work in a complex environment or not

D. was worried about the competition the Locata faced

【4】Which of the following can replace the underlined word “exactitude” in Paragraph 4?

A. Accuracy.    B. Speed.

C. Determination    D. Length

【5】What can we know from the passage?

A. Locata is as small as a cell phone.

B. GPS is the most practical position system at present.

C. Locata will tell you how to get what you want in the future.

D. Locata will enter our lives through the cell phone, just like GPS.
