Here are some medical pioneers, who have left their marks on history.
Benjamin Spock (1903—1998) Dr. Benjamin Spock authored the famous book The Common Sense Book of Baby and Child Care in 1946. Dr. Spock’s method of parenting was gentle. He encouraged parents to trust their natural ability and use common sense. He wrote several other books during his career centered on child care. His works changed how people raised their children in the Western Hemisphere. His works continue to influence us today. Aaron T. Beck (1921—2021) Dr. Aaron T. Beck is the father of cognitive behavior therapy (认知行为疗法). He is one of the most influential psychotherapists (心理治疗师) in history. Beck’s early work was on psychoanalytic theories about depression. This led to him developing cognitive behavior therapy. He developed cognitive therapy plans to treat many disorders.
Basil Ⅰ. Hirschowitz (1925—2013) Dr. Basil I. Hirschowitz was a pioneer in the fields of gastroenterology (胃肠病学) and endoscopy, a medical operation in which a piece of equipment is put into a person’s body so that the parts inside can be seen. Over the course of his career, his goal was to improve visible techniques of the gastrointestinal tract. He formed successful partnerships to do just that. Charles D. Kelman (1930—2004) Dr. Charles D. Kelman advanced the treatment for cataracts (白内障). He developed breakthrough treatments that removed cataracts and brought the patients’ sight back. His new method of curing the eye disease changed the treatment of cataracts. He worked hard to improve the sight and lives of millions of people.

We truly are what we eat—and what our ancestors ate. Food has changed who we are and how we developed for hundreds of thousands of years. From processing to preserving to cooking, what humans did and continue to do to food played a big role in shaping our evolution.
“Processed food isn’t just a modern invention. It’s as old as human itself and may have helped create our species,” wrote Nicholas Temple, author of The Best Before: The Evolution and Future of Processed Food for the BBC.
Although processing is viewed negatively nowadays, it was important to our development as a species. Processing doesn’t necessarily mean adding chemicals. It also includes pounding or slicing or changing the food in anyway before pared to our ancestors, modern humans’ teeth, jaws and faces have gotten smaller because of making food easier to chew, especially from cooking.
Cooking food was one of the biggest changes in human history. Researchers believe it could have occurred between 1.8 million to 400,000 years ago. Without cooking, an average person would have to eat around five kilos of raw food to survive and will have to spend most of the day eating. Also, up to 50% of women who only eat raw foods develop a condition that signals that the body can’t support a pregnancy—a major problem for evolution, according to Science American. Processing food leads to a huge gain in leisure time. The less time people spent chewing, the more time they had to develop complex spoken language. Cooking food also breaks down its cells. So our stomachs need to work less to absorb the nutrients and save more energy, which could then be used to power a large brain.
Processed food actually shaped us as a species and made us human—the only species on the earth who can cook.
24．Why are modern humans’ teeth and jaws smaller
A．Because they look much more beautiful. B．Because they are suitable for cooked food.
C．Because humans become small in size. D．Because humans eat less than before.
25．What problem does eating raw food cause
A．It takes people much time and energy. B．It stops the evolution of human beings.
C．It causes people’s stomach to work less. D．It lows the development of written language.
26．What can we learn from the passage
A．Only modern people process food. B．Some animals can cook food as humans.
C．Processed food is of great value to humans. D．People began to process food in recent years.
27．What is the main purpose of the passage
A．To introduce various ways to process food on the earth.
B．To uncover the details about the development of human food.
C．To present the findings of a book written by Nicholas Temple.
D．To explain the importance of processed food to human beings.

When I was a kid, a sycamore (枫树) grew in front of my home. At the age of 10, I was just tall enough to reach its lowest branch and lift myself into its embrace. Sometimes two or three of my friends would join me in the sycamore, or in the maple down the street, or Mrs. DiMarco’s old peach tree, some of whose stout horizontal branches allowed us to sit shoulder to shoulder, eating sweet fruit.
In my small town there are some kinds of trees, their branches spreading wide, open for business. But I have not yet seen a climber. Perhaps computer games have replaced tree climbing, or maybe the activity went the way of monkey bars, which came to be viewed as too risky and have largely disappeared from playgrounds.
It is a sad loss. I have always believed that, since low-hanging branches provide no benefit to the tree, they must be meant for the child. Robert Frost understood this when he wrote:
When I see baches (桦树) bend to left and right,
Across the lines of straighter darker trees,
I like to think some boy’s been swinging them.
My only disagreement with Frost is his inference that tree climbing is a gender-specific task. Both boys and girls make a joyful climb.
The campus of the university where I teach has all sorts of trees. During a recent walk, I found myself bending under the branch of an immense spruce (云杉). I grabbed the thing, and a moment later was sitting on a branch. Then the memories came flooding back. The old sycamore, the friends, and finally, the reluctance to return to the earth when the parental call to supper came.
I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn’t hear the student calling to me from below. He asked what I was doing. I didn’t waste time on explanations. “Come on up,” I said “The air’s fine.” But he only laughed and waved me off. He didn’t know what he was missing.
28．What does the underlined word “stout” in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A．Slim. B．Bent. C．Smooth. D．Strong.
29．What is the second paragraph mainly about
A．Why kids don’t climb trees. B．Why monkey bars are dangerous.
C．Why there is no business under trees. D．Why kids are addicted to computer games.
30．What does the author want to prove by mentioning Robert’s poem
A．Some branches of trees are useless. B．Trees are intended for kids to climb.
C．Trees are a source of inspiration for poets. D．Climbing trees is a unique right of boys.
31．What did the author think the student had missed
A．The explanations to his question. B．The fresh air above a sycamore.
C．The pleasure of climbing trees. D．The sense of safety on the earth.
D
Tell me if this sounds familiar: You’re trying to get some work done, and you find yourself continually picking up your cell phone. In frustration, you might slam the phone down beside you and swear to leave it alone—theoretically allowing you to focus on what you’re doing. Right now my phone is sitting next to me untouched. But have I really protected myself from its distractions or its ability to impact my mind
The answer is no, according to a well-known study in the Journal of the Association for Consumer Research from 2017 entitled “Brain Drain (认知流失): The Mere Presence of One’s Own Smartphone Reduces Available Cognitive Capacity.”
Cognitive and social psychologist Adrian Ward and his colleagues proposed the “brain drain hypothesis” by showing that just having a phone next to you could impact cognition—specifically, working memory, or the mental system that helps us hold information about what we’re currently doing at a given moment. The way we measure it is by having people remember words and solve math problems at the same time. And the idea there is that those are two very different cognitive skills, word memory and math problems, but they’re tapping into that same general cognitive resource. In those experiments, people either had their phones on a desk, in their pockets or bags, or in the next room. The farther away a person’s phone was, the better they did on those tasks. Even when you’re not consciously thinking about your phone, the process of not thinking about your phone requires some cognitive resources.
This was an interesting, though slightly concerning, finding that led to more studies on how the presence of our smartphones might be influencing how well we’re able to think. But in a new meta-analysis that looked at data from 27 different brain drain studies, the story of the brain drain hypothesis has gotten a little more complicated. If it’s just sitting next to you while you’re working, is that a problem or not And I think that’s quite an important question to answer, to know more about.
32．What’s the purpose of Paragraph 1
A．To classify a concept of the passage. B．To introduce the topic of the passage.
C．To make an overall outline for the passage. D．To offer a general background of the passage.
33．Which statement would Adrian Ward most probably agree with
A．Smartphones enable constant connection to latest information.
B．Mobile device use does not affect performance on mental system.
C．Cognitive capabilities are largely determined by working memory.
D．The presence of smartphones accounts for the damage to cognition.
34．What do we know about the participants in the experiment
A．The distance from phones to people was related to their performance.
B．They were only required to perform mathematical tasks.
C．The outcome was better if phones were used less frequently.
D．They consciously thought about phones when memorizing words.
35．What’s the best title of the passage
A．How Does Your Phone Damage Your Memory B．How Does Your Phone Wear Your Brain Out
C．Is Your Phone Actually Draining Your Brain D．Is Your Phone Influencing Your Working Performance

Advice For Dealing With Uncertainty
We are living in uncertain times, going through changes that we can’t control. There’s just so much to worry about: health, finances, even our social relationship. This state of uncertainty usually leaves us upset and depressed. 36 .
Reflect on yourself.
Check in with yourself. Allow yourself to get in touch with how you’re feeling. Reflect both on what’s hard and on what’s still good. 37 . What matters is just that you find time to pause and take stock in the midst of a crisis.
38 .
Find some things you want to do — things that take your mind of your worries during uncertain times. Maybe for you it’s baking a pie or organizing a closet or conquering a video game. Whatever it is, think about what feels meaningful or gives you a sense of accomplishment and do that.
Reach out for help.
Connect with people who can lift you up and point you in the right direction. 39 , you’ll think you’re in a ditch by yourself. So, call, video-chat or text with a friend; join an online community; or even go old-school and write a letter. You will understand that you are not alone.
Don’t try to make sense of things too soon.
It can be tempting to rush through an uncertain situation and try to make it seem certain. So the last tip is more about what we should not do than what we should do. Don’t try to make sense of things too soon. 40 . That leaves room for new possibilities.
A．Set aside external expectations B．Find your “best gift” for the day C．It doesn’t matter how you reflect D．If you don’t talk to others E．It’s crucial to figure out what life will hold in store for us F．The following tips may do some help G．Instead, take time to recharge, free up energy to do good, meaningful things

I was driving my 5-year-old son home when I saw a homeless man in the median strip (中央分隔带) in the road.
I wanted to give the man some 41 , but I didn’t have any cash. My son 42 the man as well and he insisted that I give the man the 30 cents he had. It seemed that he had read my 43 and he responded out loud.
I was more than 44 that he wanted to help, but honestly, I was 45 . I didn’t want to give just 30 cents to this man who clearly 46 more help. My own pride and 47 over the homeless man’s disappointed reaction to 48 just two coins stood in the way.
I quickly realized that I was the only 49 in the situation and that the traffic light would turn green soon. I then thought to myself, “I’ve been teaching him about 50 others and now that he wants to give everything he can 51 , I shouldn’t let my personal self-centeredness 52 this act of kindness.”
I almost told my son, “Let’s wait to 53 until we at least have one dollar.” I almost told my son that what he had wasn’t 54 . I almost showed him that what he saw as a good thing couldn’t make a 55 in someone’s life. I almost taught him that personal 56 was more important than helping another human.
57 , I quickly got rid of that foolishness.
I then rolled down the window and said to the man, “I’m sorry. I don’t have any cash on me, but my 5-year-old son back in the 58 wants to give you everything he has right now.”
To my 59 , the smile on that man’s face lit up the intersection. The only thing that matched the 60 of that stranger’s smile was the bigger smile on my boy’s face.

The New Skill I Want to Learn
The new skill that I want to learn in summer vacation is cooking.
As we all know, cooking is the most basic life skill. Learning to cook for middle school students can prepare them for an independent life in society after graduation. Cooking at home is healthier and cheaper than eating out or ordering take-out.
I plan to learn to cook with my mother at home during the summer vacation. I can watch her cook, memorize the steps of cooking, and practice it myself.
I believe that with my mother’s help, I can certainly learn to cook in the summer vacation.

M: Well, we need someone, otherwise we will lose our place.
W: I’ll tell you what—I’ll do it if you cannot find anyone better than me.
M: Well, the tournament is tomorrow night at 7:00 p.m. Not sure if we will find anyone else by then.
W: Let me ask around. My cousin Dave used to play bowling well.
M: Well, if he is available, the sport is his.
W: Oh no, I remember that he is going to a new museum exhibition tomorrow.
M: Not to worry, we’ll find someone else.
W: What about Henry He’s our boss, and he’s quite sporty. He plays football.
M: Great idea. I’ll drop him an email.
W: Sorry I couldn’t do it.

(Text 10)
Now I’d like to talk to you about the final exam. The exam will be held next Thursday, the last day of the exam week. Remember to bring along two or three pens in case you run out of ink. You will have to answer three of the five questions to write your articles. The exam will be quite difficult, which means you will be responsible for all of the subject matters we’ve covered in class. I would suggest you review your mid-term exam and the textbooks. The final will account for 55% of your grade in the course. The research project will account for 20%, and the mid-term 25%. I’ll be in my office almost all day on Tuesday of next week. If you run into any problems, please feel free to stop in. Good luck with your study, and I’ll see you on Tuesday.
