When I was a teenager I knew nothing about mental health. If you talked about “safe spaces”, I’d think that you meant a bank. What’s more, I didn’t care about mental health. Why would I As Dad used to say, “If it isn’t broken, don’t fix it!”
But unfortunately my mental health did “break”. I was diagnosed (诊断) as seriously clinically anorexic (厌食的) at age 23. I had immediate treatment in hospital, which lasted two and a half years. People always wonder what helped me recover and the key was simple: comedy (喜剧).
I’m a professional stand-up comic. Comedy began as my hobby and has progressed into a job. The word “comedy” is believed to come from the Ancient Greek kōmos meaning “to reveal”, whose job is to reveal, explain and understand things. This was something I turned to when I was in recovery from anorexia. I’d never been able to explain what going on inside my head; trying to explain what’s going on in your mind is like trying to explain a color to someone who’s blind. So humour became a way of understanding things and then a way of explaining them.
Dr Dieter Declercq, Lecturer in Film at the University of Kent, believes “Humor can change our opinions on a difficult situation”. However, he adds carefully that “We should avoid judgments like All humour is good for you.” In his new book Satire, Comedy and Mental Health, he looks at how comedy can be used as a mental health method. Enjoyed with others, it is important for good mental health and recovery.
Stand-up comedy was important to my recovery. I know I’m not alone in that. So I want to pay that forward and show other people your mental health doesn’t have to be “broken” before you can “fix it”.
4. How did the author treat the issue of mental health as a teenager
A. She took it seriously. B. She was confident of it.
C. She hated talking about it. D. She paid no attention to it.
5. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3
A. Explain how comedy helps. B. Share what she went through.
C. State where comedy comes from. D. Show why comedy is a common hobby.
6. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A. Comedy. B. Film. C. A difficult situation. D. The new book.
7. In which section of a magazine is this text probably from
A. Health & Life. B. Man & Nature.
C. Science & Technology. D. Society & Opinion.
C
What is talent Are you born with it Or does it seem to develop over time Before I start I’d like to say that one thing everyone agrees on is that the most skilled musicians have worked hard to get there.
While it’s true that a few of us had enough “talent” to avoid extra practice to do just as well as those who did, those who worked hard easily beat us. It is, in fact, very likely that if some of us “talented ones” had actually been practicing and improving our skill, we would have achieved a whole different level.
Another aspect of talent seems to be heart and passion (酷爱). The people I see who are the most talented musicians are crazy about music. They eat, breathe, and live music and they make an extraordinary effort to make it part of their lives. As Remus Badea said, desire for the musician-to-be is significant for them to be successful. This desire is easily found in those considered to be talented. When you want and love something so bad, it drives you and your entire character can be shaped around it. Such determined passion seems to produce incredible skill and talent.
The third aspect (方面) of talent is having talent around you. When surrounded by talented musicians, it only seems natural that you start to catch up to their level. Take a look at almost any group of musicians in history. The more talented people in the group the more talented the group is as a whole. A great example of this is the relationship between audio producer and artist. The artist turns up to the studio with their song, and as they work through recording it, the audio producer will often suggest various changes to the song to make it better.
8. What can we learn from Paragraph 2
A. Pride goes before a fall. B. It’s never too old to learn.
C. Practice contributes to talent. D.Talent determines achievements.
9. What is the key to success according to Remus Badea
A. Passion. B. Character. C. Skill. D. Talent.
10. Why is the example mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To introduce what real talents are. B. To explain how a song is composed.
C. To prove talents need team spirit. D. To show the benefits of being with talents.
11. What might the author probably agree with
A. Music has no limits. B. Musicians are born with talent.
C. Music favors the talented. D. Musicians are created, not born.
D
The use of AI (artificial intelligence) is becoming more common in many branches of industry and online shopping. Traditional lines of work, such as goods transport and driving, are developing in a similar direction although mainly out of public view. Scientists at the University of G ttingen have now investigated how efficient (高效的) the use of AI can be in the commercial management of trucks.
“Digital applications—as well as machine leaning, a kind of AI—are increasingly applied to operations and courses in the transport area,” explains Professor Matthias Klumpp from the Faculty of Economics. “The question in the commercial area, however, is whether or not this contributes to achieving goals.”
To answer this question, the researchers compared the work efficiency of truck drivers with their main use of AI applications. Looking at trade delivery by truck, they studied three groups: the first drove completely following human decision-making models; the second used a combination of human and machine; and the third depended completely on fully automated decisions.
The researchers found that an intelligent combination of human work and decision-making abilities with AI applications promises the highest transport and driving efficiency. “On average, the second group achieved the most efficient transport trips, with the fewest interventions (干预) and off-course from the best path.” one researcher said, “Clearly, neither a completely human decision-making structure nor a fully automated driving system can promise to meet current goods transport requirements.” The scientists therefore summarized that despite the progress of AI in the field of transportation by truck, human experience and decision-making abilities will still be necessary in the longer term. However, the challenge is that a wide range of training and qualification (资格) needs will come along by working with Al applications, especially for simple goods transport activities.
12. What does Matthias Klumpp focus on
A. The efficiency of AI. B. The advantages of AI.
C. The problems caused by AI. D. The wide applications of AI.
13. How did the researchers get the finding
A. By providing examples. B. By making comparisons.
C. By using different trucks. D. By listing three experiments.
14. What can we know from the last paragraph
A. Al is better at making decisions.
B. A balance is needed between human and AI.
C. Human will soon be replaced by AI in driving.
D. Al applications meet the current requirements.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. The future of transport.
B. Artificial intelligence as a co-driver.
C. Artificial intelligence-a better choice in driving.
D. The strengths of artificial intelligence in transport.

Good morning, everyone.
I'm happy to have this opportunity to give a speech about opposing waste. It's a fact that there exist large amounts of wastes everywhere. Air, soil and groundwater are polluted, which brings health risks to humans. The waste about food, electricity, water and so on, can not only threaten food safety and result in the lack of water, but also cause some serious problems about humans' living.
Therefore it's high time for us to save resources and fight against wasting. We should order and prepare meals according to how much we need. We should buy fewer clothes and stop purchasing things that we won't use later. Moreover, we should save as much water and energy as possible. In brief, we should spare no effort to live an eco-friendly life, which would be simpler but happier.
Thanks for listening.
