“Life is speeding up. Everyone is getting unwell.”
This may sound like something someone would say today. But in fact, an unknown person who lived in Rome in AD (公元) 53 wrote it.
We all love new inventions. They are exciting, amazing and can even change our lives. But have all these developments really improved the quality of our lives
Picture this. You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the television is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank (黑屏) and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to get it done. How happy do you feel
Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed (有压力的) and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who have no telephones, no cars, not even any electricity often seem to be happier Perhaps because they live simpler lives.
One family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today. The grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons Benjamin, 10 and Thomas, 7, spent nine weeks in a 1940s house. They had no washing machine, computer or mobile phones.
The grandmother, Lyn, said, “The more things you have, the more difficult life becomes.” The boys said they fought less. Probably, they said, because there was less to fight over, such as their computer. Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a “ trendy (赶时髦的), beer-drinking granny”, to one who cooked things.

Did you know that vocabulary is more important than grammar If you have good vocabulary, you can communicate successfully, even if the grammar is not completely perfect.
However, one common problem is learning new words and then forgetting them. So when you want to use a new word in a conversation, you can’t remember it at that moment. Does this often happen to you The reason for this difficulty is that most students try to learn vocabulary by studying lists and dictionaries and remembering the words. But it may not work if you don’t have a very good memory.
The best way to learn vocabulary and remember the words well, is to learn new words and use them at once.
You can do this with a very simple exercise. Every time you learn a new word, for example,
from an English lesson or an article, write it down in your vocabulary notebook. Writing is more active than just reading a definition. You should write the word, the definition in English or translation, one example sentence from the article or dictionary and one example sentence that you create.
Imagine you just learn the word “generous”, write in your vocabulary notebook: generous (adjective), definition—giving or willing to give freely. Example one, from the article: Thanks for paying for my dinner, you’re very generous. Example two, my example: My brother is generous because he volunteers at the animal shelter on weekends. It’s best if your example sentences are true to your life, because this creates a personal connection with the new word. The next day, read your vocabulary notebook again and try to add one more example sentence using the new word. It’s helpful for you to remember it. These two simple steps—writing the word and using it at once—help you remember and use new words.
Do you have a vocabulary notebook If not, start now.
27．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A．The problem. B．The new word. C．The conversation. D．The dictionary.
28．What’s the correct order of the following steps of taking vocabulary notes
①Make your own example sentence.
②Write the word, its English definition or translation.
③Copy an example sentence from the article or dictionary.
④Read your notebook again and add one more example sentence.
A．②③①④ B．②③④① C．③④②① D．③②①④
29．What does the underlined word “definition” mean in Chinese
A．匹配 B．词性 C．限定 D．释义
30．How can we make the best example sentences according to the writer
A．By asking for help from friends. B．By explaining words’ definitions.
C．By connecting them with our life. D．By adding words from the article.
31．What’s the best title for the passage
A．Tips for Translating Words B．Ways of Learning New Words
C．Abilities of Creating Examples D．Advice on Using Grammar
D
Many people believe that, by the year 2100, we will live on the planet Mars. Here is what life could be like.
First of all, transport should be much better. By 2100, spaceship can travel at half of the speed of light. 32
Secondly, humans need food, water and air to live. Scientists should be able to find plants that can grow on Mars. These plants will provide us with food and air.
33 We could easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space. To prevent this, humans on Mars have to wear special shoes to make themselves heavier.
Life on Mars will be better in many ways. 34 It is possible to live in a large building with many bedrooms. Then, robots will do most of the work, so we have more time for hobbies.
35 Every student can study, do their homework on the computer and take exams in online schools. Each student will also have their own online teacher called “E-teacher”.
However, in some ways, life on Mars may not be better than that on the earth today. 36 Meals will probably be in the shape of pills and will not be as delicious as they are today. Also, space travel will make many people feel ill.
根据材料内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使短文意思通顺、内容完整。
A．Food will not be the same.
B．First, people will have more space.
C．There will probably be no schools on Mars.
D．There is a problem for us to live on Mars.
E．It might take us two or three days to get to Mars.

I think Chinese people can celebrate foreign festivals. It is a good way to learn about different cultures and traditions around the world. By celebrating foreign festivals, we can broaden our horizons and enhance our understanding of the world.
For example, Christmas is a popular festival in many countries. By celebrating Christmas, we can learn about the customs and traditions associated with this festival, such as decorating Christmas trees, exchanging gifts, and singing Christmas carols. This can help us appreciate the diversity of cultures and promote cultural exchange.
However, we should also remember to respect our own traditional festivals and culture. We can celebrate foreign festivals while still maintaining the importance of our own traditions. In this way, we can create a harmonious and inclusive society that values both local and global cultures.
