He was diagnosed with bowel cancer in 2014 and in recent years used his voice to champion better NHS screening for the disease. In many ways, he was a pioneer in British broadcast journalism. Born in Sri Lanka, he was one of the first people of color working for a major UK broadcaster to report extensively on the part of the world that became known as the Global South, shining a light on the ordinary lives of millions of people, especially perhaps in Africa whose everyday lives were often ignored or relegated to the inside pages of newspapers. The BBC director general Tim Davies said today that George was more than just an outstanding journalist. Audiences could sense his kindness, empathy and wonderful humanity. Our special reporter Ann Little now looks back at a brilliant life of storytelling and adventure.

The daughter of a romantic poet and occasional freedom fighter, Ada Lovelace had a famous but absent father. She never knew Lord Byron, as just weeks after her birth in 1815, he divorced her mother Isabella Milbanke Byron and left to fight in the Greek War of Independence. In an effort to prevent Ada from developing her father’s unpredictable temper, Isabella decided that her daughter should devote her life to study.
Ada studied hard despite the fact that society did not encourage women pursuing interests in science. Her life changed when she met inventor Charles Babbage at a party. As he demonstrated a working section of his mechanical calculator, Ada was taken in by how it worked and wanted to know more. Impressed by the 17-year-old’s obvious passion, Babbage became her tutor. Ada married in 1835 and became a mother, but she continued to take an active interest in study, socialising in intellectual circles with the likes of Charles Dickens and Michael Faraday.
Ada stayed in contact with Babbage, who in 1837 had proposed a new machine, the analytical engine. In 1843, Ada was asked to translate a French text written by engineer Luigi Menabrea about Babbage’s new design. After completing the translation, Ada was encouraged by Babbage to write her own notes on his work.
After nine months of hard work, Ada presented Babbage with a detailed list of notes that was three times longer than the original article. In her calculations, Ada wrote what are considered the first ever computer algorithms to be used in a new type of machine. She essentially provided the first ideas for computer programming in what was a groundbreaking proposal on the potential of computers.
Ada died of cancer aged only 36 and her work was largely recognised until the 1950s when her notes were republished. In 1979 the US Department of Defence named a programming language ‘Ada’ in her honour.
24. What can we learn about Ada from the first paragraph
A. She had a devoted father. B. Her mother raised her up alone.
C. She had an unpredictable temper. D. Her parents divorced before her birth.
25. Who aroused her interest in mathematics and computer engineering
A. Charles Dickens. B. Michael Faraday.
C. Luigi Menabrea. D. Charles Babbage.
26. Which words can best describe Ada
A. Modest and outgoing. B. Talented and diligent.
C. Generous and considerate. D. Determined and independent.
27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Ada’s notes were published only once.
B. Ada named a programming language after herself.
C. Ada earned a reputation nearly a century after her death.
D. Ada’s work was largely recognized when she was alive.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. B 27. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了计算机先驱Ada Lovelace的个人经历以及所取得的成就。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“She never knew Lord Byron, as just weeks after her birth in 1815, he divorced her mother Isabella Milbanke Byron and left to fight in the Greek War of Independence.(她从未见过拜伦勋爵，因为1815年她出生几周后，拜伦勋爵就与她的母亲伊莎贝拉·米尔班克·拜伦离婚，参加了希腊独立战争)”可知，Ada从未见过自己的父亲，她是由母亲独自抚养长大的。故选B。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Her life changed when she met inventor Charles Babbage at a party. As he demonstrated a working section of his mechanical calculator, Ada was taken in by how it worked and wanted to know more. Impressed by the 17-year-old’s obvious passion, Babbage became her tutor.(当她在一次聚会上遇到发明家查尔斯·巴贝奇时，她的生活发生了变化。当他演示他的机械计算器的工作部分时，艾达被它的工作原理迷住了，想知道更多。巴贝奇被这个17岁女孩明显的热情所打动，成为了她的导师)”可知，是Charles Babbage改变了她的生活，激起了她对数学和计算机工程的兴趣。故选D。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Ada studied hard despite the fact that society did not encourage women pursuing interests in science.(尽管社会不鼓励女性追求科学兴趣，艾达还是努力学习)”可知，Ada 在学习上很刻苦，以及第四段中“In her calculations, Ada wrote what are considered the first ever computer algorithms to be used in a new type of machine. She essentially provided the first ideas for computer programming in what was a groundbreaking proposal on the potential of computers.(在她的计算中，艾达写出了被认为是有史以来第一个用于新型机器的计算机算法。她提出了计算机编程的第一个想法，这是一个关于计算机潜力的开创性建议)”可知，她在笔记中提出了计算机编程的第一个想法，是一个关于计算机潜力的开创性建议，说明她极有天赋。故选B。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“She never knew Lord Byron, as just weeks after her birth in 1815, he divorced her mother Isabella Milbanke Byron and left to fight in the Greek War of Independence.(她从未见过拜伦勋爵，因为1815年她出生几周后，拜伦勋爵就与她的母亲伊莎贝拉·米尔班克·拜伦离婚，参加了希腊独立战争)”以及最后一段“Ada died of cancer aged only 36 and her work was largely recognised until the 1950s when her notes were republished.(艾达死于癌症，年仅36岁，直到20世纪50年代，她的笔记被重新出版，她的工作才得到广泛认可)”可推知，她出生于1815年，1950年她的笔记被重新出版，也就是她死后快一个世纪的时候，她的贡献才广为人知，选C。
C
Mirroring body language is a way to bond and to build understanding. It is a powerful tool that we use without even knowing it.
The most obvious forms of mirroring are yawning and smiling. When you see someone yawn, you are likely to yawn immediately. Smiling is also pretty contagious—seeing a smiling person makes you want to smile too.
Mirroring body language is a nonverbal way to say “I am like you or I feel the same”. Research shows that people who experience the same feelings are likely to trust, understand and accept each other. Women have the natural ability to pick up and understand body signals. Therefore, it is not surprising that a woman is more likely to mirror another woman than a man is to mirror another man.
That’s why women are regarded as better talkers, even if they might not really have more close friends.
Mirroring body language is an excellent way to build trust and understanding quickly. If you want to set up a connection with others, mirror their gestures, sitting position, tone of voice and talking pace. This will make them feel that there is something about you that they like.
While mirroring body language gains you acceptance, you still need to take into consideration your relationship with the person you are mirroring. If you are in a lower social position and are mirroring the body language of your boss, he will view you as rude. However, if you want to defeat those who are trying to prove superior to you, mirroring their body language will help defeat them and change their position.
28. What does the underlined word “contagious” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Affecting each other. B. Showing one’s feelings.
C. Attractive to the others. D. Gentle to people around.
29. What can we know about women from the research
A. They don’t like mirroring others.
B. They tend to have more close friends.
C. They are naturally gifted in building trust.
D. They are good at interpreting body language.
30. What is the author’s attitude to the behavior of mirroring the boss
A. Indifferent. B. Curious. C. Doubtful. D. Disapproving.
31. What is the best title for the text
A. The Common Forms of Mirroring
B. The Excellent Method of Mirroring
C Mirroring Body Language:A Useful Tool
D. Nonverbal Communication:A Special Bond
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. D 31. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了模仿身体语言是一种联系和建立理解的方式。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“seeing a smiling person makes you want to smile too.(看到一个微笑的人也会让你想要微笑)”可知，微笑具有感染性，可以让人们相互影响。由此猜测，划线单词意思为“相互影响”。故选A。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“Women have the natural ability to pick up and understand body signals. Therefore, it is not surprising that a woman is more likely to mirror another woman than a man is to mirror another man.(女性有天生的能力来接收和理解身体信号。因此，一个女人比一个男人更可能模仿另一个女人，这并不奇怪)”可知，女性擅长解释肢体语言。故选D。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“While mirroring body language gains you acceptance, you still need to take into consideration your relationship with the person you are mirroring. If you are in a lower social position and are mirroring the body language of your boss, he will view you as rude.(虽然模仿肢体语言会让你获得认可，但你仍然需要考虑你与你所模仿的人的关系。如果你处于较低的社会地位，并且模仿老板的肢体语言，他会认为你很粗鲁)”推知，作者不赞成模仿老板的肢体语言。故选D。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容，尤其第一段“Mirroring body language is a way to bond and to build understanding. It is a powerful tool that we use without even knowing it.(模仿肢体语言是一种联系和建立理解的方式。它是我们在不知不觉中使用的强大工具)”可知，文章主要介绍了模仿肢体语言是一种强大的工具。C项“模仿肢体语言：一种有用的工具”可以作为文章的最佳标题。故选C。
D
The idea of low material desire, low consumption and refusing to work, marry and have children, concluded as a “lying down” lifestyle, recently struck a chord with many young Chinese who are eager to take pause to breathe in this fast-paced and highly-competitive society.
Many millennials (千禧一代) and generation Zs complained to the Global Times that burdens, including work stress, family disputes and financial strains, have pushed them “against the wall”. They said they hate the “involution(内卷),” joking that they would rather give up some of what they have than get trapped in an endless competition against peers.
“Instead of always following the ‘virtues’ of struggle, endure and sacrifice to bear the stresses, they prefer a temporary lying down as catharsis (宣泄) and adjustment,” said a scholar. “It is no wonder that some young people, under the growing pressures from child-raising to paying the mortgage (按揭) today, would try to live in a simple way and leave the worries behind.”
Interestingly, the majority of millennials and Gen Zs reached by the Global Times, who claim to be big fans of the lying down philosophy, acknowledged that they only accept a temporary lying down as a short rest. It is true that with the great improvement of living conditions, some Chinese youth have partially lost the spirit of hardship and are not willing to bear too much hard work. But in fact, lying down is not entirely comfortable. Young people who lie down always feel guilty about their constant loss of morale (士气) far beyond their reach.
“Young people on campus have both aspirations and confusion about their future, but most of us have rejected setting ourselves up in chains to waste opportunities and challenges,” a postgraduate student told the Global Times. “It’s no use running away. I have to ‘stand up’ and face the reality sooner or later.”
32. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 1 mean
A. Warned. B. Punished. C. Amused. D. Touched.
33. What might have caused the “lying down” lifestyle among the young
A. Improvements in living conditions.
B. Growing pressure from family and social life.
C. Increasing material possessions from families.
D. Temporary adjustment to failure in competitions.
34. What’s the scholar’s attitude toward the “lying down” group
A. Understanding. B. Intolerant. C. Supportive. D. Unclear.
35. What can be inferred about the young generation from the text
A. They never really drop their responsibilities.
B. They really enjoy the “lying down” lifestyle.
C. They find their dreams far beyond their reach.
D. They would rather escape than take challenges.
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. A 35. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。低物欲、低消费、拒绝工作、拒绝结婚、拒绝生孩子的“躺平”生活方式，最近引起了许多年轻人的共鸣，他们渴望在这个快节奏、竞争激烈的社会中停下来喘口气。
【32题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“The idea of low material desire, low consumption and refusing to work, marry and have children(低物质欲望，低消费，拒绝工作，结婚和生育的观念)…”对这种生活方式和“…many young Chinese who are eager to take pause to breathe in this fast-paced and highly-competitive society(在这个快节奏、竞争激烈的社会中，渴望停下来喘口气的许多年轻人)”年轻一代的生存状态的描述，可知，年轻人对这种观念是认同并受其影响的，划线词意为“触动，影响”。故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Many millennials and generation Zs complained to the Global Times that burdens, including work stress, family disputes and financial strains, have pushed them “against the wall”.(许多千禧一代和Z一代向《环球时报》抱怨说，包括工作压力、家庭琐事和经济压力在内的负担把他们逼到了“绝境”)”可知，来自家庭和社会生活的压力越来越大导致了年轻人“躺平”的生活方式。故选B。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段““Instead of always following the ‘virtues’ of struggle, endure and sacrifice to bear the stresses, they prefer a temporary lying down as catharsis and adjustment,” said a scholar. “It is no wonder that some young people, under the growing pressures from child-raising to paying the mortgage today, would try to live in a simple way and leave the worries behind.”(一位学者说：“他们不总是遵循斗争、忍耐和牺牲的‘美德’来承受压力，而是喜欢暂时躺下，作为宣泄和调整。难怪一些年轻人在今天从抚养孩子到支付抵押贷款的压力下，会试图以一种简单的方式生活，并把担忧抛在脑后。”)”可推知，学者对“躺平”群体的态度是理解。故选A。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“But in fact, lying down is not entirely comfortable. Young people who lie down always feel guilty about their constant loss of morale far beyond their reach.(但事实上，躺平并不完全舒服。躺平的年轻人总是为自己的士气不断丧失而感到内疚)”以及最后一段““Young people on campus have both aspirations and confusion about their future, but most of us have rejected setting ourselves up in chains to waste opportunities and challenges,” a postgraduate student told the Global Times. “It’s no use running away. I have to ‘stand up’ and face the reality sooner or later.”(一名研究生在接受《环球时报》采访时表示：“校园里的年轻人对未来既有抱负，也有困惑，但我们大多数人都不愿把自己束缚起来，浪费机会和挑战。逃跑是没有用的。我迟早要‘站起来’面对现实。”)”可推知，年轻一代从未真正放下自己的责任。故选A。

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Is your key or phone missing a dozen times a day, or can’t you find the TV remote until ten minutes after a favorite show has begun Such faults might be accompanied by a nagging fear: Is something wrong with me Probably not. ____36____ But for the most part, people can overcome the tendency to misplace things. Here is some advice.
When you put something down, say its location. ____37____ You’d say, “I’m setting my mouse to the right of my computer.” And saying that, either in your mind or out loud, focuses your attention on where you put it, upping the chances that you’ll remember its location later.

【36题详解】
根据空前句“Such faults might be accompanied by a nagging fear: Is something wrong with me Probably not. (这些错误可能伴随着一种挥之不去的恐惧：我有什么问题吗 可能不会。)”以及空后句“But for the most part, people can overcome the tendency to misplace things. (但在大多数情况下，人们可以克服把东西放错地方的倾向。)”可知，D项“It’s a common occurrence and certainly annoying. (这种情况很常见，当然也很烦人。)”承上启下，既是对空前句的进一步解释，又是引起了空后句的转折。故选D。
【37题详解】
根据段首句“When you put something down, say its location. (当你放下某样东西时，说出它的位置。)”可知，G项“One way to be more mindful of where your things are is to verbalize where you put them. (一个更注意你的东西放在哪里的方法是用语言表达你把它们放在哪里了。)”符合语意表达，都是在讲当你放东西时，说出它的位置。故选G。

【39题详解】
根据空后句“That might mean placing a basket by your front door where you drop your keys and wallet immediately upon entering your home, or labelling one drawer as the scissors drawer. (这可能意味着在你的前门放一个篮子，你一进门就把钥匙和钱包放在那里，或者把一个抽屉标记为剪刀抽屉。)”可知，A项“Set up a routine. (建立常规。)”符合逻辑关系，一进门就把钥匙和钱包放在篮子里或者把抽屉标记为剪刀抽屉都是为了形成惯例，养成习惯。故选A。
【40题详解】
根据设空位置可知，应为总结句。再结合段首句“Be kind to yourself. (善待自己。)”以及空前句“When your thoughts spiral in such a manner, you’re even less likely to be able to focus and keep track of your possessions. (当你的想法以这种方式盘旋时，你甚至不太可能集中注意力和跟踪你的财产。)”可知，C项“So, remember to give yourself a break. (所以，记得让自己休息一下。)”照应段首句，而且符合总结句的逻辑关系。故选C。

2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
With a wide smile on her face, 15-year-old Sirin eagerly ran to her mother to proudly show off her new painting. Mother raised in surprise and spoke impatiently, “Not now, baby. I’m busy with an important conversation. Just wait for a while, okay ”
Holding her oil painting, Sirin frowned (皱眉), and then searched for her dad. “Dad, see what I have done,” Sirin exclaimed (大声叫喊) cheerfully. Her dad turned around while adjusting his tie, grinned at her, and made a thumbs-up sign!
Immediately, Sirin replied angrily, “Dad, you haven’t seen it yet.”
He smiled at her, saying, “No time, baby. I will see it later.” He just patted her back lovingly, kissed her forehead, and rushed for his office.
She was hard to please with a simple gesture or smile. She stood there for a few seconds, and then stormed into her own bedroom. Hot air was blowing from her nostrils (鼻孔). Her face turned red. She threw the painting on the table, slammed (砰地关上) the door and threw herself on her bed.
“Why is everybody so busy ” She recalled thousands of incidents that hurt her in preschool, middle school and even high school too! She assumed at least her own family members would give some feedback on her thoughts, but they were no exception. Unconsciously (无意识地), her eyes were filled with tears.
The knocking sound on the door put a sudden brake on her thought. Her mom was calling her for dinner. Sirin intentionally came late to join them. She kept silent and didn’t look at anyone scratching (刮擦) at the table mat with her nail. Her mom was puzzled at her unusual behavior. Suddenly, the morning incident came to mind. Softly, she asked, “Honey, did I do anything wrong ”
At this very moment, Sirin could no longer contain her anger.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When back from school the next day, Sirin was surprised to see her painting on the wall.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
At this very moment, Sirin could no longer contain her anger. “Why are both of you so busy ” she roared, tears streaming down her cheeks. She had assumed that her mom and dad would feel proud of her great talent, but she was neglected with everybody having “no time” for her. “I hate both of you!” she screamed angrily, grabbed the painting on the table and tore it in half. Shocked, her mom threw her arms around Sirin tightly, whispering, “Baby, I am so sorry! I promise that this mistake will not be repeated.”
Paragraph 2:
When back from school the next day, Sirin was surprised to see her painting on the wall. It was beautifully framed and below the painting was a sentence “We are so proud of you!” On seeing it, she burst out crying. She ran to her mom and hugged her tightly, fully aware of her mom’s love. Recalling her mom’s busy daily life, she regretted her previous behavior. So she ducked her head, apologizing, “Sorry, my dear mom!” It dawned on them that it is mutual understanding in the family that counts.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了15岁的Sirin在画完自己画作后向父母炫耀的时候，父母并没有给予真正的关注和欣赏，而是被父母以没有时间拒绝了欣赏她的绘画。Sirin非常生气地跑回自己的房间，回忆着自己的过往，伤心的流出眼泪，在吃饭的时候，妈妈意识到Sirin有些异样，温柔地问Sirin是不是自己做错了什么。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“在这一刻，Sirin再也无法抑制她的愤怒。”可知，第一段可描写Sirin是如何开始发泄自己的愤怒的。
②由第二段首句内容“第二天从学校回来，Sirin惊讶地看到她的画挂在墙上。”可知，第二段可描写Sirin看到墙上的画后的感受以及与爸爸妈妈的进一步交流后的感受。
2.续写线索：大吼——把画撕掉——妈妈道歉——绘画挂到了墙上——向妈妈道歉——感悟
3.词汇激活

The daughter of a romantic poet and occasional freedom fighter, Ada Lovelace had a famous but absent father. She never knew Lord Byron, as just weeks after her birth in 1815, he divorced her mother Isabella Milbanke Byron and left to fight in the Greek War of Independence. In an effort to prevent Ada from developing her father’s unpredictable temper, Isabella decided that her daughter should devote her life to study.
Ada studied hard despite the fact that society did not encourage women pursuing interests in science. Her life changed when she met inventor Charles Babbage at a party. As he demonstrated a working section of his mechanical calculator, Ada was taken in by how it worked and wanted to know more. Impressed by the 17-year-old’s obvious passion, Babbage became her tutor. Ada married in 1835 and became a mother, but she continued to take an active interest in study, socialising in intellectual circles with the likes of Charles Dickens and Michael Faraday.
Ada stayed in contact with Babbage, who in 1837 had proposed a new machine, the analytical engine. In 1843, Ada was asked to translate a French text written by engineer Luigi Menabrea about Babbage’s new design. After completing the translation, Ada was encouraged by Babbage to write her own notes on his work.
After nine months of hard work, Ada presented Babbage with a detailed list of notes that was three times longer than the original article. In her calculations, Ada wrote what are considered the first ever computer algorithms to be used in a new type of machine. She essentially provided the first ideas for computer programming in what was a groundbreaking proposal on the potential of computers.
Ada died of cancer aged only 36 and her work was largely recognised until the 1950s when her notes were republished. In 1979 the US Department of Defence named a programming language ‘Ada’ in her honour.

Mirroring body language is a way to bond and to build understanding. It is a powerful tool that we use without even knowing it.
The most obvious forms of mirroring are yawning and smiling. When you see someone yawn, you are likely to yawn immediately. Smiling is also pretty contagious—seeing a smiling person makes you want to smile too.
Mirroring body language is a nonverbal way to say “I am like you or I feel the same”. Research shows that people who experience the same feelings are likely to trust, understand and accept each other. Women have the natural ability to pick up and understand body signals. Therefore, it is not surprising that a woman is more likely to mirror another woman than a man is to mirror another man.
That’s why women are regarded as better talkers, even if they might not really have more close friends.
Mirroring body language is an excellent way to build trust and understanding quickly. If you want to set up a connection with others, mirror their gestures, sitting position, tone of voice and talking pace. This will make them feel that there is something about you that they like.
While mirroring body language gains you acceptance, you still need to take into consideration your relationship with the person you are mirroring. If you are in a lower social position and are mirroring the body language of your boss, he will view you as rude. However, if you want to defeat those who are trying to prove superior to you, mirroring their body language will help defeat them and change their position.
28 What does the underlined word “contagious” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Affecting each other. B. Showing one’s feelings.
C. Attractive to the others. D. Gentle to people around.
29. What can we know about women from the research
A. They don’t like mirroring others.
B. They tend to have more close friends.
C They are naturally gifted in building trust.
D. They are good at interpreting body language.
30. What is the author’s attitude to the behavior of mirroring the boss
A. Indifferent. B. Curious. C. Doubtful. D. Disapproving.
31. What is the best title for the text
A The Common Forms of Mirroring
B. The Excellent Method of Mirroring
C. Mirroring Body Language:A Useful Tool
D. Nonverbal Communication:A Special Bond

The idea of low material desire, low consumption and refusing to work, marry and have children, concluded as a “lying down” lifestyle, recently struck a chord with many young Chinese who are eager to take pause to breathe in this fast-paced and highly-competitive society.
Many millennials (千禧一代) and generation Zs complained to the Global Times that burdens, including work stress, family disputes and financial strains, have pushed them “against the wall”. They said they hate the “involution(内卷),” joking that they would rather give up some of what they have than get trapped in an endless competition against peers.
“Instead of always following the ‘virtues’ of struggle, endure and sacrifice to bear the stresses, they prefer a temporary lying down as catharsis (宣泄) and adjustment,” said a scholar. “It is no wonder that some young people, under the growing pressures from child-raising to paying the mortgage (按揭) today, would try to live in a simple way and leave the worries behind.”
Interestingly, the majority of millennials and Gen Zs reached by the Global Times, who claim to be big fans of the lying down philosophy, acknowledged that they only accept a temporary lying down as a short rest. It is true that with the great improvement of living conditions, some Chinese youth have partially lost the spirit of hardship and are not willing to bear too much hard work. But in fact, lying down is not entirely comfortable. Young people who lie down always feel guilty about their constant loss of morale (士气) far beyond their reach.
“Young people on campus have both aspirations and confusion about their future, but most of us have rejected setting ourselves up in chains to waste opportunities and challenges,” a postgraduate student told the Global Times. “It’s no use running away. I have to ‘stand up’ and face the reality sooner or later.”
32. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 1 mean
A. Warned. B. Punished. C. Amused. D. Touched.
33. What might have caused the “lying down” lifestyle among the young
A. Improvements in living conditions.
B. Growing pressure from family and social life.
C. Increasing material possessions from families.
D. Temporary adjustment to failure in competitions.
34. What’s the scholar’s attitude toward the “lying down” group
A. Understanding. B. Intolerant. C. Supportive. D. Unclear.
35. What can be inferred about the young generation from the text
A. They never really drop their responsibilities.
B. They really enjoy the “lying down” lifestyle.
C. They find their dreams far beyond their reach.
D. They would rather escape than take challenges.

Then, at the end of the day, scan the areas where you’ve been, find the items that need to be taken back home, and return them to their spots.
Be kind to yourself. It’s certainly understandable if you’re frustrated with your tendency to misplace things.

With a wide smile on her face, 15-year-old Sirin eagerly ran to her mother to proudly show off her new painting. Mother raised in surprise and spoke impatiently, “Not now, baby. I’m busy with an important conversation. Just wait for a while, okay ”
Holding her oil painting, Sirin frowned (皱眉), and then searched for her dad. “Dad, see what I have done,” Sirin exclaimed (大声叫喊) cheerfully. Her dad turned around while adjusting his tie, grinned at her, and made a thumbs-up sign!
Immediately, Sirin replied angrily, “Dad, you haven’t seen it yet.”
He smiled at her, saying, “No time, baby. I will see it later.” He just patted her back lovingly, kissed her forehead, and rushed for his office.
She was hard to please with a simple gesture or smile. She stood there for a few seconds, and then stormed into her own bedroom. Hot air was blowing from her nostrils (鼻孔). Her face turned red. She threw the painting on the table, slammed (砰地关上) the door and threw herself on her bed.
“Why is everybody so busy ” She recalled thousands of incidents that hurt her in preschool, middle school and even high school too! She assumed at least her own family members would give some feedback on her thoughts, but they were no exception. Unconsciously (无意识地), her eyes were filled with tears.
The knocking sound on the door put a sudden brake on her thought. Her mom was calling her for dinner. Sirin intentionally came late to join them. She kept silent and didn’t look at anyone, scratching (刮擦) at the table mat with her nail. Her mom was puzzled at her unusual behavior. Suddenly, the morning incident came to mind. Softly, she asked, “Honey, did I do anything wrong ”
At this very moment, Sirin could no longer contain her anger.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When back from school the next day, Sirin was surprised to see her painting on the wall.
