Sometimes children need extra (额外的) help to learn at school. In some schools in England, some volunteers work with children who have difficulty in reading. The volunteers spend time with them, away from their class, to help them learn to love books and enjoy school. These children can then become more confident about school and learning.
Lorna is a 6-year-old student. This is a report from Mrs. Snow who has been visiting her at school.
When I first started working with Lorna, she was very shy and didn’t really enjoy reading. Her class teacher told me she was very quiet in class.
During our lessons we spent lots of time reading books together. We also played word games to help with her spelling and writing. As time went on, Lorna began to relax and became more confident. She realized that reading and writing could be lots of fun.
Lorna even wrote a book by herself about Beauty and the Beast. She also drew some lovely pictures to explain it.
Her class teacher is pleased with how well Lorna is doing. Lorna proudly tells her classmates about what she has done in each lesson with me. I think they all want to join in as well!
I’m pleased that Lorna is also spending more time at home reading with her parents. They all enjoy reading books together! She now even reads to her dog!

The world is full of amazing things. Let’s see China’s amazing technology! Nowadays, we are used to using our phone to get a map of our location. But how do our phones know where in the world, we are and in which direction we are going It is all thanks to the satellites in space that help our phones calculate our position. Depending on where you are around the world, your phone may be receiving data from different systems. That’s how the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System（BDS）works in China.
The BDS nowadays is more advanced than the first version（版本）of the system, which was sent into space in 2000. The present version has better technology and more satellites. The system is not finished, there will be lots of BDS satellites. In the future, those satellites will allow us to discover the position of objects with millimetre accuracy（精确度）.
Even though more satellites are being added to the system, the BDS has already been put to use. More than 40, 000 Chinese fishing boats are using the system now. These boats are easily to be searched at sea.They are able to communicate with people on land as well as give the exact locations of ships in trouble.
The BDS is being used on land as well. Of course, it’s not hard to imagine how the system is helping the police do their job. So does farming. Farmers are able to put the data to good use when operating smart farming machines. For example, the BDS can be used to control driverless trucks as they turn up the fields. Farmers are also using drones（无人机）.
Although the BDS is a product of China, the developers are actively developing international cooperation（合作）. Developers predict that the system will be not only popular within China, the BDS will undoubtedly bring lots of advantages to China and the rest of the world.
33．The underlined word “calculate” here probably means ________.

Sara Braden doesn’t have time to lose things. She’s a working mom with a lot more hobbies than her friends, and when she misplaces her keys or leaves her purse at a restaurant, she becomes annoyed and impatient. “It impacts me greatly,” says Braden, 35, a Washington officer.
According to a recent study led by Daniel Arely, a professor of psychology at Harvard University, Braden has ADHD, a type of attention disorder, which, she says, makes her “likely to put things in certain places and not remember where I put then.”
Her anxiety is familiar to anyone whose phone is missing a dozen times a day. Such kind of mistakes might result in a constant fear: Is something wrong with me Probably not. “It’s common and certainly annoying.” says Professor Arely.” Most of the time, losing things is a breakdown of attention and memory. We’re thinking about something else. We have other concerns occupying our attention, and then we never really add the information to memory about where we’ve put the object.”
The study shows that, sometimes, people with ADHD report that losing things affects their work productivity or relationships. For example, if they can’t find their keys all the time and are late for a dinner party, they could anger their friends. In that case, it’s worth being evaluated by a doctor. Nevertheless, not all cases deserve special attention. Actually, people who have had ADHD since they were teens have nothing much to worry about. For those with ADHD, what really matters is changes from past performance.
When we’re operating on autopilot and not truly focused on our surroundings, we may still lose things even with the strongest intention not to do so, Professor Arely says. But for the most part, he thinks people can overcome the tendency to lose things. Sara Braden has learned to adapt, in part by writing down where she has stored items. She also coaches herself not to panic when an item gets lost.
37．How does the author introduce the topic
A．By giving an explanation. B．By offering an example.
C．By making a comparison. D．By quoting a remark.
38．What is the possible reason for people’s losing things
A．Their absent-mindedness. B．Their constant fear.
C．Their emotional breakdown. D．Their common weakness.
39．What should people with ADHD pay special attention to
A．Losing things repeatedly since teens. B．Behavioural changes from the past.
C．Occasional delay in meeting friends. D．Improved efficiency at work.
40．What is Professor Arely’s attitude to overcoming forgetfulness
A．Conservative. B．Tolerant. C．Positive. D．Sceptical.

AI painters like Midjourney can create pictures. Simply type in what you want and the picture comes out in minutes. They have one thing in common—they are fake, but look like they are real. People have never been more worried than today about the 51 of fake news.

The drum has existed in Chinese civilization for thousands of years and has a deep spiritual meaning which is more than a kind of musical instrument. Confucius regarded the “Drum Dance” highly. It is also the origin of the Chinese phrase “guwu” which means “embolden”(大胆) in English.

Since the sound of drums echoes that of thunder, it was believed that playing drums could attract rain. So the instrument was used to pray to the gods for good weather and to “communicate” with them.
Drums also played a part in the war. Because of a strong resonance effect(共振作用), the drum’s sound could go very far while increasing fear in the heart of the enemies. So the drum was used as a military booster for a long time.
In the Tang and Song dynasties, the society was developing fast and drums were widely used. The national band, drama, folk art. song and dance, boat racing, lion dance, festival gathering and labor competition were all together with the beats of drums. The sound of drums became synonymous(同义的) with celebrations, filling hearts with joy.
Different types of Chinese drums exist today. For example, “Taiping Drum” is used to express hope for peace and prosperity while “Ansai Waist Drum” is meant to show the spirit of the Loess Plateau(黄土高原) and the heroic character of farmers in Northwest China. Kaifeng has “Pan Drum”, and Luochuan of Shaanxi Province is known for its “Bie Drum”. There are also some cheerful and time-honored drum dances such as “Fengyang Flower Drum” in Anhui Province and “Fishing Basket Flower Drum” in Jiangsu Province.
In a word, drum culture reflects the stability(安定) and prosperity(繁荣) of Chinese society. For thousands of years, Chinese people have always been expecting peace and satisfaction:

The world is full of amazing things. Let’s see China’s amazing technology! Nowadays, we are used to using our phone to get a map of our location. But how do our phones know where in the world, we are and in which direction we are going It is all thanks to the satellites in space that help our phones calculate our position. Depending on where you are around the world, your phone may be receiving data from different systems. That’s how the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System（BDS）works in China.
The BDS nowadays is more advanced than the first version（版本）of the system, which was sent into space in 2000. The present version has better technology and more satellites. The system is not finished, there will be lots of BDS satellites. In the future, those satellites will allow us to discover the position of objects with millimetre accuracy（精确度）.
Even though more satellites are being added to the system, the BDS has already been put to use. More than 40, 000 Chinese fishing boats are using the system now. These boats are easily to be searched at sea.They are able to communicate with people on land as well as give the exact locations of ships in trouble.
The BDS is being used on land as well. Of course, it’s not hard to imagine how the system is helping the police do their job. So does farming. Farmers are able to put the data to good use when operating smart farming machines. For example, the BDS can be used to control driverless trucks as they turn up the fields. Farmers are also using drones（无人机）.

Sara Braden doesn’t have time to lose things. She’s a working mom with a lot more hobbies than her friends, and when she misplaces her keys or leaves her purse at a restaurant, she becomes annoyed and impatient. “It impacts me greatly,” says Braden, 35, a Washington officer.
According to a recent study led by Daniel Arely, a professor of psychology at Harvard University, Braden has ADHD, a type of attention disorder, which, she says, makes her “likely to put things in certain places and not remember where I put then.”
Her anxiety is familiar to anyone whose phone is missing a dozen times a day. Such kind of mistakes might result in a constant fear: Is something wrong with me Probably not. “It’s common and certainly annoying.” says Professor Arely.” Most of the time, losing things is a breakdown of attention and memory. We’re thinking about something else. We have other concerns occupying our attention, and then we never really add the information to memory about where we’ve put the object.”
The study shows that, sometimes, people with ADHD report that losing things affects their work productivity or relationships. For example, if they can’t find their keys all the time and are late for a dinner party, they could anger their friends. In that case, it’s worth being evaluated by a doctor. Nevertheless, not all cases deserve special attention. Actually, people who have had ADHD since they were teens have nothing much to worry about. For those with ADHD, what really matters is changes from past performance.
When we’re operating on autopilot and not truly focused on our surroundings, we may still lose things even with the strongest intention not to do so, Professor Arely says. But for the most part, he thinks people can overcome the tendency to lose things. Sara Braden has learned to adapt, in part by writing down where she has stored items. She also coaches herself not to panic when an item gets lost.
37．How does the author introduce the topic
A．By giving an explanation. B．By offering an example.
C．By making a comparison. D．By quoting a remark.
38．What is the possible reason for people’s losing things
A．Their absent-mindedness. B．Their constant fear.
C．Their emotional breakdown. D．Their common weakness.
39．What should people with ADHD pay special attention to
A．Losing things repeatedly since teens. B．Behavioural changes from the past.
C．Occasional delay in meeting friends. D．Improved efficiency at work.
40．What is Professor Arely’s attitude to overcoming forgetfulness
A．Conservative. B．Tolerant. C．Positive. D．Sceptical.
【答案】37．B 38．C 39．B 40．B
【导语】本文主要以Sara Braden的情况为例讲述了ADHD症的原因和克服方法。
37．推理判断题。根据文章第一段可知，该段以Sara Braden的情况为例引出文章主题，故选B。
38．细节理解题。根据“Most of the time, losing things is a breakdown of attention and memory.”可知，人们丢东西的原因可能是注意力和记忆力的崩溃。故选C。
39．细节理解题。根据“For those with ADHD, what really matters is changes from past performance.”可知，对于那些患有ADHD症的人来说，真正重要的是改变过去的表现。故选B。
40．观点态度题。根据“But for the most part, he thinks people can overcome the tendency to lose things. ”可知，Arely教授认为可以克服失去东西的倾向，因此他的态度是积极的。故选B。
