With an increasing number of students suffering from physical and mental problems, more importance has been attached to taking up sports to keep fit. Of the various kinds of sports, running is highly recommended.
There are several reasons why I am convinced that running is a perfect choice. To begin with, compared with other sports, it is easy, simple and convenient to run, for all that we need is only a pair of comfortable shoes. In no case do we need any facilities or partners to start, thus making it possible for us to do it whenever and wherever we want. More importantly, running has proved to be an effective way to improve overall health. Sitting in the classroom (chained to the desk) most of the time, the majority lack proper amount of exercise, leaving us fragile and easy to get sick. This is where running comes in given the fact that it helps boost our immune system and lower the risk of getting diseases ranging from catching a cold to serious ones like heart attack. Last but not least, it also contributes to relieving stress and tension we have to deal with in this intensely competitive society.
Choose running and begin your journey to a healthy life with each step.

【答案】范文
Emily listened to her mother carefully and followed her mom’s suggestion. The next day, she began to practice singing outside. Gradually, her courage became greater and greater, and the sound of her singing was also louder and louder. Months later, she could sing as she was walking. A naughty boy who had laughed at her before cried to her, “Emily, coward! Emily, coward!” However, she chose to ignore his behavior.
Going on singing, she walked into the park, where many people were singing and dancing. Hearing her beautiful voice, some stopped to listen to her singing and clapped for her. A grandma smiled to her and said, “Oh, little girl, you sing really well!” Emily said thanks to her. Emily felt pleased that she could sing confidently in front of strangers. The second year, the neighborhood held the singing competition again. This time, Emily walked onto the stage bravely, and her loud and beautiful voice of singing moved all the people. They all cheered for her, including those who had laughed at her. Her mother was delighted to see the timid girl became a brave one.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
The hardest thing about planning a big European vacation is actually narrowing down where to go—there are just so many amazing places. That's why we've put together what we think are the best cities in Europe.
AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS
Amsterdam is the kind of city that you can't help but fall in love with. It's the kind of place where you dream about moving and buying an apartment that overlooks a peaceful river. It's relaxing and you get a sense that the locals have an amazing quality of free life. We love simply walking around the canals and exploring the city's neighborhoods.
BERLIN, GERMANY
Berlin is said to be “poor but charming” and we think that's a pretty good description. Actually, Berlin is becoming more expensive as its popularity grows, but it's still the top spot for Germany's artistic scene. Berlin isn't particularly pretty but it's an energetic city with cool people and cooler graffiti-covered (涂鸦) neighborhoods.
LISBON, PORTUGAL
Lisbon is a hot destination and I doubt it will be quickly moving up in the ranks of Europe's most visited cities. Lisbon is a popular coastal city that's famous for its unique buildings and charming café culture. It's also very friendly on the wallet when compared to other Western European cities—food and lodging are both priced reasonably and attractions are about average.
FLORENCE, ITALY
Florence may be touristy but that’s no reason to ignore this birthplace of the Renaissance (文艺复兴). If you do your research, you can find plenty of excellent Italian restaurants and world-class ice cream. And, of course, the city is beautiful and home to top museums so it's a dream for art and history lovers.
21．Which city best suits people holidaying on the cheap
A．AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS. B．BERLIN, GERMANY.
C．LISBON, PORTUGAL. D．FLORENCE, ITALY.
22．What do BERLIN and FLORENCE have in common
A．They are famous for food. B．They are of political importance.
C．They are cities of scenic beauty. D．They are attractive to artists.
23．Where is the text probably from
A．A travel magazine. B．A restaurant advertisement.
C．A news report. D．A science column.
B
Dear Cutie-Pie,
Recently, your mother and I were searching for an answer on Google. Halfway through entering the question, Google returned a list of the most popular searches in the world. At the top of the list was “How to keep him interested.”
It surprised me a lot. I scanned several of the countless articles about how to be attractive, when to bring him a beer and a sandwich, and the ways to make him feel smart and superior.
And I got angry.
Little One, it is not, has never been, and never will be your job to “keep him interested.”
Little One, your only task is to know deeply in your soul—in that unshakeable place that isn’t upset by rejection and loss—that you are worthy of interest.
If you can trust your worth in this way, you will be attractive in the most important sense of the world: you will attract a boy who is both capable of interest and who wants to spend his one life investing all of his interest in you.
Little One, I want to tell you about the boy who doesn’t need to be kept interested, because he knows you are interesting.
I don’t care if he can’t play a bit of golf with me—as long as he can play with the children you give him and revel in all the glorious and frustrating ways they are just like you. I don’t care if he doesn’t follow his wallet—as long as he follows his heart and it always leads him back to you. I don’t care if he is strong—as long as he gives you the space to exercise the strength that is in your heart. I don’t care how he votes—as long as he wakes up every morning and daily elects you to a place of honor in your home and a place of respect in his heart.
Little One, if you come across a man like that and he and I have nothing else in common, we will have the most important thing in common: You.
Because in the end, Little One, the only thing you should have to do to “keep him interested” is to be you.
Your eternally interested guy,
Daddy
24. What shocked Daddy when he was surfing on the Internet
A. Girls’ being upset by being refused constantly.
B. Girls’ knowing nothing about trusting themselves.
C. Girls’ giving priority to finding ways to please boys.
D. Girls’ bringing foods and drinks to boys from time to time.
25. Father thinks what is of primary importance to his daughter is to________.
A. attract a boy willing to invest all in her
B. know she deserves a boy’s interest
C. find a boy who can please her
D. keep the boy interested
26. According to the passage, what does the underlined word “revel” mean
A. feel depressed. B. become puzzled.
C. look around. D. enjoy himself.
27. What’s the main purpose of this letter
A. To encourage his daughter to trust her worth.
B. To show his daughter how to find her true love.
C. To tell his daughter how to keep others interested.
D. To help his daughter find someone with common interests.
C
Even small amounts of physical activity, like quick walking, may greatly lower the risk of depression(抑郁), according to a new data analysis (分析).
Recommended levels of exercise in the United States, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), include aerobic (有氧的) activity at proper levels for 2.5 hours a week, along with a workout of all major muscle groups twice a week. Or, a person can choose a high-level aerobic exercise, such as running, for 1.25 hours each week, along with the same amount of strength training.
Middle-to-high-level exercise is good for us, according to the CDC. It improves sleep, lowers blood pressure, protects against heart disease and diabetes, reduces stress, improves mood, and fights anxiety and depression. But in today’s busy world, many people find it difficult to fit in a jog or a visit to the gym. Add depression to the mix, and the motivation for exercise drops even further, experts say.
The analysis, published Wednesday in the journal JAMA Psychiatry, looked at 15 studies involving over 190,000 people to determine how much exercise was needed to reduce depression.
Adults who did activities equal to 1.25 hours of quick walking per week had an 18% lower risk of depression compared with those who did not exercise, the study said. Moving up to an “activity amount equal to 2.5 hours of quick walking per week was associated with 25% lower risk of depression,” the study authors said.
The benefits were strongest when a person changed from being a couch potato to adding movement to the day, the study said. However, exercising over the recommended levels did not provide any additional benefits.
“Our findings therefore have an important new influence on health doctors making lifestyle recommendations, especially to inactive individuals who may regard the current recommended target of exercise as unrealistic,” the authors wrote.
A study in 2018 found similar results: People who exercised had about 43% fewer days of poor mental health. “Even just walking three times a week seems to give people better mental health than not exercising at all,” said study author Adam Chekroud, an assistant professor of psychiatry at Yale University.
28．Why does the writer use the figures in Paragraph 2
A. To make out which exercise is better for health.
B. To recommend the proper levels of exercise.
C. To show the benefits of doing exercise.
D. To provide different ways of exercise.
29．How do you understand the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3
A. Running may possibly add to depression.
B. People tend to exercise more when depressed.
C. Depressed people are less willing to exercise.
D. Working out regularly helps increase motivation.
30．What does the analysis published in JAMA Psychiatry suggest
A. Over 190, 000 people suffer from poor mental health.
B. 2.5 hours of quick walking per week is a must for adults.
C. The recommended levels by CDC go for people of all ages.
D. A couch potato benefits much when taking proper exercise.
31．Which of the following agrees with Adam Chekroud’s idea about exercise
A. Where there is a will, there is a way.
B. Half a loaf is better than no bread.
C. Rome wasn’t built in a day.
D. Practice makes perfect.
D
The question of whether it is possible to separate the artist from their work has been debated for a long time. Even though positive critical reviews about an artist's behavior can improve their artistic achievements, people should treat artists as individuals who have lived apart from their work.
One of the reasons is that even artists have shortcomings. Like any other human being, an artist can make mistakes, and we cannot be severely judgmental of every person that falls into error. Cancel culture with endless criticism is concerned more with how we should disregard the artists when they make mistakes than with how their weakness can be used by the artists to create art that is unique.
Perhaps Kevin Hart’s words support this thought. He asks "When did we get to a point where life was supposed to be perfect Where people were supposed to operate perfectly all the time " When people start seeing artists as human beings, they'll see them for who they are and review their behavior not on the basis of their art but on the basis of their humanity.
It should be also noted that there are works of art that are inspired by the artist's experience. For example, the themes in the Harry Potter books are so connected with J. K. Rowling's wicked worldview that it is actually impossible to separate the two from each other. Since canceling artists based on their worldview would mean the reception to their art will suffer, artists become tense and unwilling to express themselves, which will kill creativity, eventually leading to the death of edians, singers or painters who should be mixing contemporary（当代的） issues with their works become boring, and art stops functioning as the social mirror it ought to be.
An artist who makes mistakes still has art with intrinsic (内在的) value, benefiting entire communities or cultures, For instance, one can respect the late Michael Jackson because of how he influenced pop music and the inclusion of black musicians in mainstream media despite his personal weaknesses, opinions, worldviews and associations.
While these artists may engage in their terrible behavior, the art they produce today may serve as an example for others to produce outstanding work in the future. Some would refer to this process as a cycle. Good art should, therefore, be judged due to its value and not the value of the artist.
32. Which would Kevin Hart probably agree with
A. Artists should be evaluated based on their humanity time.
B. If artists have weaknesses, we'd better cancel them.
C. Artists' shortcomings might be their inspiration.
D. People should perform perfectly all the time.
33. Why will "cancel culture" lead to the death of art
A. Artists will be unwilling to create any artwork.
B. Artists will stop concerning with contemporary issues.
C. Artworks are unavoidably inspired by artists' experiences.
D. Artists will lose their desire for expression and creativity.
34. How can an artist with mistakes benefit others
A. The artist's art may give others ideas of artistic creation.
B. The artist will benefit entire communities or cultures.
C. The artist's opinions may inspire heated discussion.
D. The artist may make some new words popular.
35. Which would be the best title of the passage
A. Judge Art Due to Its Value
B. Separate the Art From the Artist
C. Regard Artists as Human Beings
D. Stop Criticizing Artists' Behavior

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内的单词的正确形式。
Thanks to advances in technology, how we make friends and communicate with them has changed 56 (significant). Nowadays, we can move around the world and still stay in touch 57 the people that we want to remain friends with.
Social media tools let us see what our friends are up to and maintain friendships. The digital age also enables us 58 (find) people who share our interests, such as 59 (collect)model cars or playing an unusual instrument. Whatever our 60 (hobby) are, the Internet can connect us with others who also enjoy doing them, even if they live on the other side of the world.
However, the “friends" online don’t necessarily become our real friends. If people always exchange true 61 (person) information online, then these friendships can be real and meaningful. But we need to keep in mind that what we see on social media 62 (be)often not the whole truth about a person. On social media sites, people tend to post only positive updates 63 make them appear happy and friendly and the smiling photos can hide real problems. 64 this doesn’t mean that we should throw the baby out with the bathwater. Although in recent years technology 65 (change)the way we acquire friends, the meaning of friendship and our longing for friends remain the same.

阅读下面短文, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的故事。
Once there was a little girl named Emily. Although her singing was very pleasant to hear, lacking of courage, she never dared to sing in front of strangers.
One summer, the neighborhood where she lived would hold a singing competition. Her best friend, Lucy, came to invite her to participate in the competition, but Emily said, “I’m afraid to take part in it.” Her mother said, “It’s okay; just do it bravely.” Emily followed her mama’s advice and decided to give herself a try. The day came. Emily and Lucy went to the competition site. But she was too timid (胆小)to walk onto the stage. She had been waiting until others finished singing. She shakily (颤抖地)forced herself to stand on the stage. She started to sing, but her voice was so low. What’s worse, she was so nervous that she forgot the lyrics (歌词)after singing a few words. Being laughed at by others, embarrassed and shy, she ran away from the stage.
Some naughty boys ran after her and said, “Emily, coward (胆小鬼)!Emily, coward!” Emily didn’t argue with them. What she wanted was to go back home as quickly as she could. Finally, she rushed into the house, hugged her mom and cried sadly.
“Well, my poor girl, don’t cry. Tell me what happened to you,” asked her mom. Emily looked up at her mother and told her what she had experienced.
Listening to her, her mom cupped her face and said, “It doesn’t matter, girl. As long as you practice singing more in front of strangers, you will become braver little by little. So, my girl, don’t be beaten by a failure. You can go out to practice singing every day. No matter who is listening to you, go on singing and never stop. I believe there will be a harvest for you.”
