Ellen Xu, now 18, well remembers her parents rushing her little sister to the hospital when she was a five-year-old in San Diego, California. Three-year-old Kate fell seriously ill; she had a fever, reddened eyes, a rash (皮疹) and some swelling in her hands and tongue.
At first, the puzzled doctors thought she had a flu, but when her condition didn't improve, the Xus returned to clinic, where, a doctor by chance had experience with Kawasaki disease. Though rare, it's the leading cause of acquired (后天的) heart disease in babies and young children, and its cause remains somewhat mysterious. Luckily, the doctor knew how to treat it and eventually Kate shook off the illness without suffering damage to her heart.
Xu was amazed that the grown-ups couldn't answer her questions about why it was so hard to identify. “In my mind, it was a mystery,” she says, “It was a puzzle I wanted to solve.”
A decade later. wanting to enter a high school science fair, she had an idea: “What if we had a doctor in our pocket ” Using AI, Xu designed a medical app to recognize Kawasaki disease based on five physical symptoms (症状).
The technology works the same way as apps that can identify birds and plants with photos you've taken on your cellphone. Worned parents can upload a photo that they have taken of their child, and the technology will scan the image for symptoms of Kawasaki disease.
Xu’ s invention has been used as a web app on the Kawasaki Disease Foundation’ s website. She says, “It means a lot to me. I want to use AI to help people live happier and healthier lives.”
24. What disease did Kate catch
A. Eye problem. B. A flu. C. A rare disease. D. Heart attack.
25. What is the function of Xu's medical app
A. Curing Kate's disease. B. Solving any puzzles.
C. Making doctors work better. D. Identifying Kawasaki disease.
26. The fifth paragraph is mainly about the app's ________.
A. wide popularity B. working principles C. hidden risks D. social impacts
27. Which of the following can best describe Ellen Xu
A. Generous and determined. B. Energetic and helpful.
C. Creative and caring. D. Curious and hardworking.
C
A lot of people ask this question: “Why is body language so important ” Studies have shown that in the process of communication, nonverbal expression has 65% to 93% more influence than actual text. This means that “how to say” is more important than “what to say” Of course, this does not mean that you don't need to do preparation for your interviews, nor does it mean that you can take any shortcuts. On the contrary, this means that you have more things to pay attention to and prepare for.
In the real workplace, body language is much more important than you think. Without proper body language, you may find yourself trapped in a circle where you can't integrate with the external environment, not to mention the difficulties in the absence of body language in the workplace.
“People can often make inferences from actions, and the results of these inferences directly affect lives: for example, who will be employed and who will be promoted.” Academician Amy Cuddy said in a TV talk show. She also said that “Our body language will also affect our perception of ourselves. When you try to make more authoritative actions, your brain will inadvertently receive signals and actually create an idea that you are more authoritative, so that you have more confidence in yourself.”
Therefore, before interviews or important meetings, try not to lean on any object or have a hunched back. Instead, you should try to keep your body relaxed. You can even stand with a relatively authoritative posture—— of course, you may need to do these things in the bathroom or places where no one could see you.
Body language plays a crucial role in your job interviews, careers, and everyday life. Paying attention to body language could make strong impacts on your behavior, which could help you achieve better results. So, every time you are nervous or feel that you can't do it, stretch your body, smile, and tell yourself “Fake it till you become it!”
28. What can be interred from Paragraph 1
A. Your success depends on your body language. B. Your body language is born with the ability.
C. Your body language is a shortcut to your success. D. Your body language exposes your hiding meanings.
29. What does Amy Cuddy mostly agree with
A. A person with good body language can be directly employed.
B. A person's actions can have an influence on his results.
C. A person's body language can improve his confidence.
D. A person's brain can decide the types of body language.
30. What does the author recommend before interviews
A. Practising standing straightly. B. Hiding things in the bathrooms.
C. Exposing your weakness. D. Leaning on a desk.
31. What can replace the underlined word “crucial” in the last paragraph
A. Equal. B. Amazing. C. Positive. D. Important.
D
Earlier research had suggested we’re best at learning grammar in early childhood.Then we hit a dead end around age 5.It’s supposed to be much harder for older kids.The time when people can learn the rules and structure of a language well appears to last until around age 17 or 18.“But that’s not so，”says psychologist Joshua Hartshorne.
Hartshorne asked friends to take an online English grammar test.After completing the test，volunteers answered questions about where they had lived，the languages they had spoken from birth and the age at which they first started learning English.Hartshorne also asked how long they had lived in an English-speaking country.As he had hoped，people shared the test widely online.This let Hartshorne’s group study the answers from 669,498 native and non-native speakers of English.The researchers used statistics to find out when people with different English-speaking experiences reached their top grammar ability.
If people moved to a new country and began speaking English by age 10 to 12，they finally spoke it as well as folks who had learned both English and another language from birth.But both groups scored a little worse than people who spoke English only，the researchers found.The test results showed that around age 17，people’s ability to learn grammar took a sharp drop.And those who started learning English after age 10 or 12 never reached the same level of English skillfulness as people who started younger.Why？The researchers think it’s because they had fewer years to practice before their skills dropped off at surprise：Language learning did not end at 17.People’s English skills kept improving a little until around age 30，the new study found.And this was true among both native speakers and those who learned English as a second language.Still，most language learning happened by age 20，the new study decided.
32．What age period is best for grammar learning according to earlier research
A．From 17 to 20. B．From 5 to 12.
C．Before age 5. D．From 20 to 30.
33．How did Hartshorne get his study statistics
A．By experimenting in the lab. B．By making an online survey.
C．By studying historical records. D．By collecting earlier study results.
34．Which of the following agrees with Hartshorne’s study results
A．Language learning needs much practice.
B．Language learning ends at the age of 17.
C．The more languages you learn，the better.
D．It is best to learn language after 20 years old.
35．What is the best title for the text
A．How Native Speakers Learn English
B．What’s the Best Age to Learn a Language
C．What’s the Best Way to Learn a Foreign Language
D．Why Non-native Speakers Can Never Master a Second Language

阅读下面材料，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短文。
I woke up early on my birthday, excited to go to school and see my friends. Although my parents were not wealthy, they always tried to turn special occasions into beautiful memories with each other.
I was about to leave for school when my mother stopped me. “Wait a minute! We have something special for you!” my mother announced and offered me a shoebox. My eyebrows raised in surprise. This gift was surprising because the box looked like one of my favourite brands. When I lifted the lid, I screamed in delight.
“Happy birthday, baby!” my mom said as I grabbed the popular basketball shoes and tried them on. “I got them from Mr. Byme's thrift shop (旧货店), but they look pretty new, right ” “I don't care where they came from, Mom. They are amazing! Thank you so much!” I held them fondly. “I can't wait to show them off at school!”
Of course, I received lots of praise at school. Suddenly, Brandon, one of my classmates, shouted, “Look! There's something written here!” I looked carefully and saw the words “To my dearest boy…” on a sole (鞋底).
“Your mom probably wrote them,” Brandon stated.
I shook my head. “My mom's handwriting is not like this. It must be from the old owner.”
I wondered about the words the rest of the day. Someone had really loved my sneakers, and maybe these shoes held much meaning to someone else.
After school, I walked to Mr. Byrne's store and asked around. The older man said, “Oh, they were brought in by a kid named Samuel. He lives in a red house nearby. Mrs. Gherkins’ son, I believe.”
“Do you know why he sold them ”
“Most people bring stuff here because they need money,” Mr. Byrne stated.
I walked out of the store, thinking about how sad the boy probably was. I wanted to know what happened, so I looked around that street and soon spotted the red house.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；

参考范文：
Paragraph 1:
I walked up to the front steps and knocked on the door. Out came a kid, calling himself Samuel. After greeting, I came straight to the point, asking why the shoes went to the thrift shop. From Samuel's hesitant words, I knew the fact that his family needed money badly because of his father's sudden illness. Thus, Samuel had to give up the precious birthday gift. Moved by what he said, I took off the shoes and handed them to Samuel without hesitation, wishing his family all the best. Tears in eyes, Samuel thanked me again and again.
Paragraph 2:
I returned home barefoot and my parents were surprised. Before they could say anything, the whole story came pouring out. “The amazing shoes have been back to the owner, Samuel! There's special meaning to him!” I asked my parents to forgive me for my immediate action without referring to their opinions. Instead of scolding(训斥) me, my parents went over and hugged me tightly, praising me for what I had done. Later on, I got another special pair of shoes for my birthday.
