Tina Leverton was 62 when she bought her first pair of ballet shoes. She said putting her feet into the
soft leather was very emotional. She said, “I’ve waited a long time for it.”
A few days later, Leverton took her first ballet class after seeing an advertisement in a newspaper. It
showed older women dancing in a class near Leverton’s house. “As I came in the door, I found a big smile
on my face. From the minute I started, I felt like coming home.”
Leverton had longed to dance as a child. Sadly, her parents couldn’t afford ballet classes, for they
were first-generation Indian immigrants, struggling to make a living in the UK. Her father was a train
driver on the underground in London and her mother held two cleaning jobs. Nonetheless, she harbored
her dream of being a ballet dancer.
At her present age, a grand plie — lowering to the floor with bent knees — seemed to be out of the
question. It took her three months to master the move: leaping and landing on one foot. “I love the struggle
and the challenge of learning something new. People in their 60s have a lot of self-limiting beliefs, ‘I can’t
do it,’ ‘I’m not good enough.’And maybe they’re not good enough. But it doesn’t matter,” she said.
Ballet has been transformative. At a medical appointment a few months after Leverton’s first class, a
nurse measured her at 163cm, half an inch taller than she had thought. She owes the difference to
improved posture. Her muscle tone has improved and her lower back pain has stopped. Dancing has also
brought new friends. She met a group of older, more independent women and worked together towards a
team award with the Royal Academy of Dance. And then, of course, there is the pleasant feeling. “Ballet is
all the therapy I’ll ever need,” said Leverton.

How good are you at maths Some people love the challenge of algebra (代数) or enjoy working out
number puzzles such as Sudoko. Maths is all around us, from working out how to split the bill after a meal,
to calculating your household bills. But many dread the moment when they have to deal with numbers and
figures and feel a real sense of worry and confusion. It can seem discouraging, but this “maths anxiety” is
perfectly normal, and you’re definitely not alone. And anyway, our worries and fears don’t necessarily
reflect our ability.
The problem really starts in childhood, at school. Research has found that maths teachers who are
nervous about teaching the subject can pass on their anxiety to the pupils, and girls may be more likely to
be affected. The Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) found around 31% of 15 and
16-year-olds across 34 countries said they got very nervous doing maths problems, 33% said they got
tense doing maths homework, and nearly 60% said they worried maths classes would be difficult.
Shulamit Kahn, a professor from Boston University’s Questrom School of Business, said she believes
giving students, particularly girls, good role models “is critical, especially at a young age”. She thinks the
key is to get people, especially women who loves maths, to younger children.
Writing for BBC Future, David Robson says “It’s not clear why maths arouses so much fear compared
to geography. But the fact that there’s a right or wrong answer — there’s no room for tricks — might make
you more worried about underperforming.” And once we assume we’re not a ‘maths person’, we avoid

solving things that we probably could do.
Psychologists have been trying to work out why mental arithmetic (心算) can bring us out in a sweat.
That seed of fear may come from many sources, but some suggest that expressing your fears can loosen
their hold on you, and encourage children to see a maths test as a challenge, not a threat. Ideally, we need
to think positively about maths and give it a second chance.
28. What does the underlined word “dread” in Paragraph 1 mean
A. Take. B. Fear. C. Expect D. Enjoy.
29. Which of the followings is the finding of PISA
A. All girls thought maths classes more challenging.
B. Many pupils had chances to have maths anxiety.
C. Some teens felt stressed in doing maths homework.
D. Few students could solve maths problems confidently.
30. What can we learn from the passage
A. It is quite uncommon for people to have maths anxiety.
B. Experts have worked out what caused our maths anxiety.
C. We are unable to solve maths problems because we do not like maths.
D. We keep away from maths problems because we doubt our maths ability.
31. What advice may the author agree with
A.Speak out your maths anxiety. B.Leave maths homework alone.
C.Try twice more in maths tests. D.Turn to math teachers for help.
D
Over the last ten years, our lives have dramatically changed as a result of new technologies. For many
of us, the ways we live and do business have changed forever.
The appearance of these new technologies has produced a new division of the global workforce,
allowing people to work from the comforts of home or while traveling and exploring the globe. These new
found freedoms and flexibility have transformed the way we look at our lifestyles. Today, heading to the
office may mean remaining at home, sitting in a favorite coffee shop, a hotel lobby(大厅) or on a lounge
chair by the beach. The ability for many people to work is virtually at our fingertips.
What does this mean for the future of our lifestyles and business It means the lines will continue to
cross between home life, work, family, and social experiences. The task of balancing our lifestyle and

daily activities will become essential. New tools will continue to help people manage busy plans, and
assist in performance and business management.
This increase in technology will create an enhanced need for person-to-person connectivity. We are
already seeing a rise in social activities to substitute the experiences of meeting people “at work” and
having regular face-to-face engagement. Finding a healthy social balance will be key to enjoying the
freedom and flexibility of working on the Internet.
In addition to the growing number of people in the remote workforce, educational programs and
home-schooling platforms are seeing similar growth. Together these two elements are redefining the
conventional family. When living nearby work or school are no longer household factors, the doors to the
world are open wide. These are major shifts in our lifestyle definitions and they will directly impact how
we exist and interact in the world in our future lifestyles.
32. What does the author think of the effects of new technologies on our work
A.They allow flexible work options. B.They change our attitudes to work.
C.They affect our choices of career. D.They provide more secure jobs.
33. What can we infer about our work in the future
A.The workplace will soon become fixed.
B.More of our work will be computer-based.
C.The division between life and work will disappear.
D.More face-to-face communication will be needed in the workplace.
34. What makes living nearby work or school no longer household factors
A.The new standard of the definition of family.
B.The ways of people interacting with each other.
C.The preference of people for different lifestyles.
D.The growth of remote work and online education.
35. What is the best title for the text
A.The New Ways of Communication B.The Advantage of Working from Home
C.The Future Changes of Lifestyle D.The New Trend in Future Education

One particularly cold Saturday in January, I was supposed to take our dog out for a walk, but it was
so cold that I didn’t want to go outside. Instead, I just opened the door and let the dog out by himself. I
kept an eye on him to make sure he would come back inside.
However, another neighborhood dog quickly ran past our house, and our dog sped after to catch him.
I hurriedly went to grab my coat so I could follow my dog, and then I rushed outside. Unfortunately, I was
already too late, and my dog was nowhere in sight. I walked a few blocks, but I was unable to find him.
Depressed, I returned home. My mother was standing at the door waiting, and she asked me what had
happened. “I know I was supposed to walk our dog,” I admitted, “but I thought he would be able to go
outside and come back by himself. Now he’s gone and I can’t find him anywhere.”
My mother was very angry with me; she said I should have been more responsible. She decided to
help by making some signs. The signs read, “Lost: A big black dog. Please call us right away” and she
printed our phone number on the bottom. “Okay, Darrell,” she said, as she handed over those signs, “now
go post these on all the street posts.”
My sister and I grabbed the signs and we posted them along our street as well as along the
surrounding streets. The whole time, I was incredibly sad and worried about our dog. All I could think
about was how cold it was and how cold our dog must be. My sister wanted to go home, so I told her I’d
walk her home, but then keep looking for the dog myself.
