To help the environment, many Americans have made the change from paper and plastic bags to reusable shopping bags.But a report by a Florida newspaper says that reusable shopping bags sold by some supermarkets have high levels of lead(铅), which can be dangerous to humans, especially young children.Now, there’s a call for a rethink about the use of reusable shopping bags.
“When our families go to the store looking for safe and healthy foods, the last thing they should be worrying about is a bag，”Charles Schumer, a government official said.“Quick and complete research will allow everyone to make right decisions.”
The newspaper bought more than a dozen bags sold at Publix supermarkets from Florida supermarkets to test them for lead.The results showed that certain bags had lead levels that worried health officials.Some bags had enough lead in them to be considered dangerous waste if people were to throw the bags out with other rubbish.Lead in the bags is not likely to move onto food.But over time, paint (油漆) on the bags can break off and the bags can wear out.When this happens, lead can be freed.
The affected (受影响的) bags were found in Florida.But Publix has more than 1，000 stores across America.Publix says that its bags don’t break any laws about lead levels, but that they have asked the makers of the bags to reduce(降低) the lead levels in them.
The bags with the highest levels of lead had beautiful designs and many pictures.Plain reusable bags without them are found to have little lead.People worried about lead levels in reusable bags can turn to cloth.Paper bags are also a good choice, since paper can be reused.
24．What worries people now is that reusable shopping bags ________．
A．can’t be reused
B．can be a danger to people
C．are a waste of money
D．are as bad as paper bags
25．The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refers to “________”．
A．bags B．foods
C．supermarkets D．officials
26．Lead in shopping bags will probably come out when ________．
A．food is put in them
B．they are thrown away
C．they are put with other rubbish
D．the paint is separated from them
27．What’s the best title for the text
A．The return of paper bags
B．Time to invent greener shopping bags
C．The safety of shopping bags
D．Look out for reusable shopping bags

Sometimes I scratch my head when I read about the government’s efforts to improve schools: new standards and tests to be applied, strict teacher evaluations, and threats of school closures and job losses. They frighten the school employees, not to mention the students. Instead of making people unable to solve problems or try new ideas-which is what fear does to us-research on school reform strongly suggests that policy-makers should encourage school leaders to take a more humane approach. In their study on the reform efforts of twelve Chicago public schools, Bryk and Schneider found that enabling positive social relationships between the adults was the key to successful school improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships.
Trust in schools comes down to one thing: psychological safety or safety to speak one’s mind, to discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn’t working, to make collective decisions.
Yet this kind of safety doesn’t come easily to schools. According to Bryk and Schneider, the adults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly and with integrity (正直). The challenge is that our expectations are very diverse based on our unique backgrounds.
At one school where I taught, each teacher had different expectations about how much effort teachers should put into their work-a big difference between the teachers who left at the last bell and those who worked into the evening. And when expectations are unspoken, it becomes impossible for others to live up to them.
We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a person’s behavior. As we all know, assumptions are often wrong. For example, parents and teachers may think the principal takes particular decision based on his career advancement rather than that is best for the students, who don’t feel psychologically safe to question our assumptions, trust files out the window and our relationships suffer.
32．According to Paragraph 1, why does the author scratch his head
A．Because he doesn’t know what to do once schools are closed.
B．Because he is not sure about the practicability of those new tests.
C．Because he is concerned that many teachers will lose their jobs.
D．Because he is not in favor of the government’ s reform efforts.
33．According to Bryk and Schneider, what was most important for successful school improvement
A．New standards and tests in schools.
B．Positive social relationships.
C．Strict teacher and student evaluations.
D．Assistance of the government.
34．What is meant by trust in school
A．Freedom to express one’ s views.
B．Extra effort teachers put into their work.
C．Independence of the teachers in schools.
D．Unconscious and unspoken expectations.
35．What does the author say about the assumptions made about the intentions behind a person’s behavior
A．They should be trusted.
B．They are often bold.
C．They are often incorrect.
D．They should be encouraged.

I’m not sure when I started to love qipaos. I just remember that when I saw Zhao Weiand other stars 56 (wear) qipaos in the TV series Romance in the Rain, I 57 (impress). Although Chinese women are fond of wearing qipaos for special events, for example, red ones for weddings, I wear them more 58 (frequent), not only for parties but also sometimes even in the office.
I’ve collected some qipaos, 59 (buy) at a store in one of Beijing’s historical neighborhoods. A Chinese friend of mine recently gave me one of her old qipaos, which almost reaches my ankles. The qipao fits well at the shoulders, 60 it was simply too tight（紧的）at the waist.
Many foreigners’ 61 (body) differ from those of the Chinese, which makes 62 hard for some foreigners to take off qipaos. Because I am not too short, and pretty thin, I can often buy ready-made qipaos in China.
In my native United States, non-Asians 63 (be) sometimes blamed on social media for wearing qipaos because of 64 (culture)differences, but in China, people have what I consider a more reasonable and open-minded approach: If foreigners wear qipaos, it is seen 65 an attitude of appreciation for Chinese culture.

66．One possible version:
Dear friends,
The development of medical technology is creating a world where robots may play a more and more important part in curing the sick.
DNA nanobots may sound like science fiction, but recent research has shown that DNA nanobots are new tools to treat cancer and other diseases. Researchers use DNA to build nanobots, which can detect cancer cells and destroy them.
By providing assistance to hospitals, medical robotics can bring down the cost of healthcare, get rid of human error, reduce operating time, and free up staff for more pressing matters.
Thank you.

Finally, when Father’s day came, both Ali and Mano came home from school and started decorating the house. Ali quickly cleaned the living room and continued with the decoration, putting up the colourful balloons and presenting the birthday cake. At the same time, Mano took out the family picture. They were about to practice singing the poem when the delicious smell came from the kitchen. Surely it was Mom that prepared the big meal. French toast and chicken porridge, both of which were father’s favourite dishes, were ready. Eventually, everything was settled. Ali and Mano stood beside the door, waiting for their father eagerly. Then Dad came in.
Ali and Mano cried out together, “Happy Father’s Day!” Hearing the words, so glad was Dad that his face lit up. “we have a surprise for you!” added Ali, pointing at the decorations. When he saw the dinner, his eyes widened and twinkled with excitement. He couldn’t help tasting a bit of chick soup, explaining that it was the best dish he had ever had. Mom grinned heartily and exchanged a gentle glance with Ali and Mano. What a beautiful and sweet surprise! The room was filled with happiness.
