The Royal Mint is a Government-owned company that makes coins for the UK and lots of other countries.Most of its coins are made from cheaper metals, but the Mint sometimes makes coins and medals from precious metals like gold and silver.It also makes gold bars.Countries and banks like to keep gold bars because they are very valuable and their price doesn’t tend to go up or down suddenly. The precious metals used by the Mint are mostly mined from the ground but now it plans to make use of the vast amounts of electronic waste (known as e-waste) that is thrown away in the UK each year.Many electronic devices use small quantities of precious metals such as gold and silver because they are good conductors of electricity.However, it is estimated that just 20% of old electronics are recycled worldwide.This is not just a waste; it can be dangerous, because when e-waste is buried in rubbish dumps, metals and chemicals can leak out and pollute the environment. Currently, e-waste from the UK is sent abroad to be melted down to recover precious metals.The new factory will use chemical reactions to do the same job much quicker and using far less energy.The process can extract 99% of the precious metals from plastic circuit boards within a few seconds, and could provide the Mint with hundreds of kilograms of gold each year. “Our new plant will see the Royal Mint become a leader in sustainably sourced precious metals,” said Anne Jessopp, the Mint’s CEO.1.What does the underlined word “extract” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?( )A.Obtain. B.Break.C.Limit. D.Add.2.What’s a problem with the old electronics if not recycled?( )A.Energy shortage. B.Environmental pollution.C.A lack of workers. D.A waste of gold bars.3.What does Anne Jessopp think of the new plant?( )A.Costly. B.Risky.C.Promising. D.Demanding.B An optical (光存储的) chip has been developed by a multi-institution research group that has the potential to train machine learning hardware. Training of modern-day artificial intelligence(AI) systems costs several million dollars in electric power and requires supercomputer-like equipment.This increasing AI desire leaves an ever-widening difference between computer hardware and demand for AI.Simply, photonic chips (光子芯片) have become a possible solution to deliver higher computing performance.However, though they’ve shown improved heart operations in machine intelligence used for data sort, photonic chips have yet to improve the actual front-end learning and machine training process. Machine learning is a two-step procedure.First,data is used to train the system and then other data is used to test the performance of the AI system.A team of researchers from several universities set out to do just that.After one training step, the team observed a mistake and reset the hardware for a second training cycle followed by additional training cycles until an enough AI performance was reached.Thus far, photonic chips have only shown an ability to sort and conclude information from data.Now, researchers have made it possible to speed up the training step itself. This added AI ability is part of a larger effort around photonic tensor cores (张量核心) and other electronic-photonic application-specific combined circuits that use photonic chip producing for machine learning and AI applications. “This novel hardware will speed up the training of machine learning systems and make the best of what both photonics and electronic chips have to offer.It is a major jump forward for AI hardware speeding-up,” said Volker J.Sorger, founder of a company. “The training of AI systems costs a great deal of energy and carbon footprint.For example, a single AI transformer takes about five times as much CO2 in electricity as a gasoline car spends in its lifetime.Our training on photonic chips will help to reduce this spending.”4.What can we infer about photonic chips from Paragraph 2?( )A.They still have failings.B.They can soon be widely used.C.They are beyond spending on AI.D.They can provide more electric power.5.What do the researchers from several universities suggest?( )A.Machine learning has two steps.B.Mistakes are unavoidable in research.C.Speeding up the training step is possible.D.Photonic chips cannot sort information.6.What is Volker’s attitude to photonic chips?( )A.Careless. B.Favourable.C.Doubtful. D.Negative.Ⅱ.阅读七选五 Could you remember what the first thing you do each day?The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is check my phone.And I’ll keep doing that throughout the entire day until I go back to bed.If, like me, a lot of your technology habits are automatic, you may not even be aware of your behavior.7.( ) But with some efforts, you can engage with the digital world in a way that’s appropriate for you.Here’s how to get started: 8.( ) Try turning off push notifications and deleting social media apps from your phone to create natural obstacles to access them.Of course sometimes there are people you know you want to keep up with and usually connect with on a particular platform.In this case, let them know how they can stay in touch. Whatever you do,don’t go to bed with your phone.9.( ) Sleeping without smartphones improves sleep, relationships, focus and well-being,and increases happiness and quality of life.Socharging your phone somewhere else could help you experience those benefits. Get to know yourself again by reinvesting in your hobbies.You can start by shutting down your social media for about a week, and then slowly find your favourite apps one at a time over the following weeks.This will help you figure out which apps are contributing to your life and which aren’t.Make a list of activities you enjoy and people you like hanging out with.10.( ) The goal with digital minimalism isn’t to figure out how to live without social media or the Internet.11.( ) Technology should enhance your life, not distract you from it.A.Set some basic boundaries.B.It can be difficult to change.C.It gives you an opportunity to grow in ways.D.Ask yourself how you feel when you’re using social media.E.When you feel the urge to grab your phone, try one of those hobbies.F.It’s not ideal to put your phone next to the pillow to charge when sleeping.G.In a word, you should be intentional about when and how we use social media.Ⅲ.完形填空 Jeanne Baret was born in rural France in the mid-1700s and her family lived on the edge of poverty.But Jeanne was an unusual woman — 12 intelligent, and determined to leave her small village to see what lay beyond.Little did she know how far she would go.Ambition can be like a severe storm that sweeps you away to 13 places.And so it was with Jeanne. Jeanne’s first big 14 was to go to a nearby town.She found work as a housekeeper for botanist Philibert Commerson, a researcher who also suffered from ill health.He came to 15 Jeanne for more than house cleaning. 16 her intelligence, he made her his assistant. It was in the midst of the Enlightenment when appetites for 17 were at an all-time high.King Louis ⅩⅤ 18 to an around-the-world expedition (远征) and 19 Philibert Commerson as botanist for the journey.To make the trip, he would need his 20 .Except she was a woman, and women were 21 from the ship.Seemingly 22 , Commerson boarded the ship with the aid of his cabin (船舱) boy.But it wasn’t long before Commerson’s cabin boy was 23 to be a woman.But it was too late, and Jeanne was too 24 to be left at the next port.

Your comfort zone represents things you’re familiar with, your regular haunts, friends you’re at ease with, and activities you love doing.Your comfort zone’s risk free.It’s easy.It doesn’t cause you to stretch.Within these boundaries, we feel safe and secure. During my senior year in college, I was short of a few credits, and so I skimmed through the class schedule looking for something to fill the hours.When I came across “Private Voice Instruction”, as in singing lessons, I thought, “Why not step outside my comfort zone and give it a try?” I was careful to sign up for private lessons instead of group lessons because I didn’t want to make a fool of myself by singing in front of other students. Things went fine until the end of the semester when my singing professor brought the shocking news.“By the way, Sean, have you decided which song you want to sing at the recital?” “What do you mean?” I asked in horror. “Well, the class requirements state that you have to sing at least one time in front of the other private voice students.” “That would not be a good idea,” I said emphatically. “Oh, it’s no big deal.You’ll do fine.” Well, to me it was a huge deal.The thought of singing in front of a group made me physically sick.“How am I going to get out of this one?” I thought.But I couldn’t allow myself to do that because I had been speaking to various groups over the past year advising them to never let fears make their decisions.Now ...I was up to bat. “Courage, Sean.” I kept rehearsing in my mind.“You’ve got to at least try.”注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请按如下格式作答。 That frightening day finally arrived. I left the classroom as if a heavy load had been lifted.

That frightening day finally arrived.As I entered the classroom, I kept trying to convince myself, “Just cheer up, OK? This can’t be that bad.” Now it was my turn.As I stood in front of the class, which was far away from my comfort zone, I kept repeating to myself,“Courage! Relax! Take it easy! Just perform your best!” It turned out that I did such a great job that all the students applauded my performance warmly. I left the classroom as if a heavy load had been lifted.Although that experience nearly killed me, I felt a great sense of personal accomplishment on my way home.I was so proud of myself and I frankly didn’t care what anyone else thought about my performance.What really mattered was that I had survived.Stepping out of your comfort zone will never be easy, but afterward you’ll always be glad you did it.6 / 6Section Ⅳ Extended reading & Project & AssessmentSmartphone: a smart choice? I was a smartphone addict①.My eyes were glued to② the little screen whenever I walked down the street, had dinner with friends or lay in bed at night.[1]The first thing I did when I woke up in the morning was reach for my phone. I always asked for Wi-Fi③ connections when I went to a new restaurant or coffee shop.A dead battery④ in my smartphone would make me feel stressed.[2]Sometimes I had the uncomfortable feeling that this little machine had taken up⑤too much of my time, and that I could have done something more meaningful than just looking at a tiny screen all day. Sliding into the habit was easy, but it was difficult to quit⑥ the habit. [1]句中I did为省略了关系代词that的定语从句,修饰先行词The first thing;由于前面出现了实义动词do的过去式did,所以动词不定式短语reach for my phone作表语时,省略to;when引导时间状语从句。 [2]句中and连接两个并列的由that引导的同位语从句,解释说明the uncomfortable feeling;在第二个同位语从句中,could have done是一个虚拟语气结构,表示“过去本可以做某事而实际未做”。 [3]Then the day came when I finally realized I had to make a change⑦.[4]Head down, eyes on my smartphone, I stepped into the road and a car shot past⑧ , nearly knocking me off my feet⑨! At that very moment, I made up my mind⑩ to spend a whole week without my smartphone. [3]本句为间隔式定语从句。when引导定语从句,其先行词为the day,主句和从句之间被谓语动词came间隔开,为间隔式定语从句;从句中realized后为省略了连接词that的宾语从句。 [4]Head down和eyes on my smartphone为两个独立主格结构;knocking me off my feet为动词-ing形式短语作结果状语。 The first day was the hardest.I was used to checking the news and my friends’ social media updates every few minutes, but now I did not know what to do with myself.I kept reaching for my pocket, for my smartphone that was not there.[5]I felt lost and anxious, as if I had missed something of value.Very soon, time slowed down .The empty hours stretched out in front of me, and I felt disconnected from everyone and everything. It was scary at first.Then somehow I began to feel free.The things that I had time for![6]I finally picked up the classic novel I had always wanted to read and was soon lost in the beautiful language.I kept a journal of my feelings, thoughts and daily activities to see how much progress I was making.I went out for a run and felt more alive than I had in days.The details of the scene were revealed in front of me: the soft sunlight, a bird singing from a high tree branch, the rich and earthy smell of the soil after the rain.Best of all, I began to appreciate the beauty in life with my own eyes, instead of through my smartphone camera. [5]as if引导状语从句,句中使用了虚拟语气,表示与过去事实相反的假设。 of value是“of+抽象名词”结构。 [6]I had always wanted to read是省略了关系词 that或which 的定语从句,修饰先行词 the classic novel;and 连接主句的并列谓语 picked up 和 was lost in。 My offline relationships benefited as well.I went for a long walk with an old friend.Our wide-ranging conversation went so much deeper than brief texts ever could.With eyes no longer fixed on our phones, we had a chance to really enjoy each other’s company .I also made sure to spend more time with my parents.We went to the opera , played badminton , and visited museums.One night, my mother took out some family photos and we laughed about old times.[7] I brought them up to date with what was going on in my life.[8] We had never felt closer to each other. By the end of the week, I almost did not want to turn my phone back on.Those seven days have given me a great appreciation for life beyond the screen.Real life—and real relationships—are more important to me now.[9] I cannot escape from the modern world, but I can cut back on the amount of time I spend on my smartphone every day, and I do. Life beyond smartphones is richer and more beautiful, and I am going to take advantage of it.︱posted at 6:44 p.m.,10 May︱by Alan︱ [7]what 引导宾语从句,作date with的宾语。 [8]否定词never与比较级closer连用,表示最高级含义。 [9]本句为but和and连接的并列主从复合句。其中I spend on my smartphone every day为省略了关系词that或which的定语从句,修饰先行词the amount of time。【读文清障】①addict n.对……入迷的人;瘾君子addicted adj.入迷的;上瘾的addiction n.上瘾;瘾;入迷;嗜好②be glued to sth 全神贯注看着某物,离某物很近③Wi-Fi n.无线网络Wi-Fi connections无线网络连接④battery n.电池 a dead battery 没电的电池⑤take up 占据(时间或空间);拿起;开始从事;花费(时间、空间或精力);继续⑥quit vt.& vi.(quit, quit; quitted, quitted)停止,戒掉;离开 quit smoking 戒烟⑦make a change 作出改变⑧shoot past 飞驰而过⑨knock sb off one’s feet 撞倒某人,使某人双脚离地⑩make up one’s mind 下定决心;决定 social media 社交媒体 slow down 减速,放慢速度;使……慢下来 stretch out 拉长;躺下;伸出,舒展(身体的某一部位) scary adj.恐怖的,吓人的 scared adj.对……感到惊慌或恐惧的;害怕的 scare vt.惊吓,使害怕 vi.受惊吓 somehow adv.不知怎么地;以某种方式(或方法) somewhat adv.有点;有几分;稍微 pick up 捡起;获得;收拾;乘载(汽车、飞机);(偶然)学会 be lost in 全神贯注,沉浸于 be lost in thought 陷入沉思 journal n.日记;报纸,杂志 keep a journal of 用日记记下…… reveal vt.展示,显出;揭示,透露 [同义]disclose, expose appreciate vt.欣赏,赏识;感谢 appreciation n.感激;感谢 wide-ranging adj.覆盖面广的,内容广泛的 company [熟义] n.公司;商行 [生义] n.& v.陪伴;做伴 enjoy one’s company 喜欢和某人在一起 make sure 确保,设法保证 opera n.歌剧;歌剧院 go to the opera 去看歌剧 badminton n.羽毛球运动 [联想] cricket n.板球 hockey n.曲棍球 volleyball n.排球 baseball n.棒球 basketball n.篮球 football n.足球 tennis n.网球 rugby n.橄榄球 golf ball 高尔夫球 table tennis 乒乓球 cut back on 减少,削减 take advantage of 利用 [同义] make use of【参考译文】智能手机:明智的选择? 我是个“智能手机控”。无论是走在大街上,还是同朋友吃饭,或者晚上躺在床上,我都目不转睛地盯着这块小小的屏幕。早晨醒来,我做的第一件事就是伸手拿手机。每当我到一家新餐厅或者咖啡厅时,我都会要求连上它们的无线网。如果手机电量耗尽,会让我感到焦虑。有时候,我有种不安的感觉,这台小机器占用了我太多的时间,我本可以做一些更有意义的事,而不是整天只盯着一个小屏幕看。陷入这种习惯很容易,戒掉它却很难。 终于我意识到自己必须作出改变的那天到来了。我低着头,眼睛盯着智能手机,走到马路上,突然一辆车飞驰过来,差点把我撞倒!就在那一瞬间,我下定决心,过一周不碰手机的日子。 第一天是最艰难的。我已经习惯了隔几分钟就翻翻新闻,浏览一下朋友们社交媒体的更新情况,可是现在,我有些无所适从。我不停地把手伸进口袋,去掏那只并不在里面的手机。我感到迷惘、紧张,仿佛我丢失了什么宝贵的东西。很快,时间就慢了下来。空虚的时光在我面前拉长,我感觉和所有人、所有事都断了联系。 一开始很恐慌。然后不知怎的,我开始感受到自由。我有时间可以做些事了!我终于重拾那本我一直都想读的名著小说,很快就沉浸在它优美的语言中。我用日记记录自己的感受、思绪和日常活动,看看自己都取得了多大的进步。我出门跑步,感觉自己比前几天要更有活力。风景的细微之处展现在我的面前:阳光柔和,一只小鸟在高高的树枝上歌唱,雨后土壤散发出浓郁的泥土气息。最棒的是,我开始通过自己的双眼,而不是手机的摄像头,来欣赏生活中的美。 我的线下人际关系也受益良多。我和一位老友散了很长时间的步。我们话题广泛的交谈比简短的信息沟通要深刻得多。眼睛不再盯着手机,我们得以真正享受彼此的陪伴。我也确保留出更多的时间和父母一起度过。我们去看了歌剧,打了羽毛球,参观了博物馆。有天晚上,我妈拿出了几张家庭合影,回忆往昔,我们开怀大笑。我也让他们知悉最近我生活中发生了哪些事。我们从来没有觉得彼此这么亲近。 那周快结束时,我几乎不想再打开手机了。这七天的经历让我得以好好享受屏幕之外的生活。现在,真实的生活和真实的人际关系对我来说更为重要。我无法逃离现代世界,但我可以减少每天花在智能手机上的时间,而且我也就是这么做的。智能手机以外的生活更丰富也更美妙,我要善加利用。 艾伦于5月10日下午6:44发布第一步:析架构,理文本脉络Read the passage quickly and fill in the blanks with suitable words.第二步:精读文,达明察秋毫Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer.1.What can we learn from the first paragraph?( )A.The author was addicted to his smartphone.B.When the author woke up, he didn’t look for his smartphone.C.When the author was in a new restaurant,he didn’t ask for Wi-Fi connections.D.The author had been happy with his smartphone all the time.2.What makes the writer decide to make a change?( )A.That his smartphone was broken.

The precious metals used by the Mint are mostly mined from theground but now it plans to make use of the vast amounts of electronicwaste (known as e-waste) that is thrown away in the UK eachyear.Many electronic devices use small quantities of precious metals suchas gold and silver because they are good conductors of electricity.However, it is estimated that just 20% of old electronics are recycled worldwide.This is not just a waste; it can be dangerous, because when e-waste is buried in rubbish dumps, metals and chemicals can leak out and pollute the environment. Currently, e-waste from the UK is sent abroad to be melted down torecover precious metals.The new factory will use chemical reactions to dothe same job much quicker and using far less energy.The process canextract 99% of the precious metals from plastic circuit boards within a fewseconds, and could provide the Mint with hundreds of kilograms of goldeach year. “Our new plant will see the Royal Mint become a leader insustainably sourced precious metals,” said Anne Jessopp, the Mint’sCEO.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。英国建造新工厂来处理电子垃圾,以获得用于铸币和金条的贵金属。文章介绍了电子垃圾的危害以及新工厂的优点。语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。英国建造新工厂来处理电子垃圾,以获得用于铸币和金条的贵金属。文章介绍了电子垃圾的危害以及新工厂的优点。1. What does the underlined word “extract” in Paragraph 1 probablymean?( )A. Obtain. B. Break.C. Limit. D. Add.解析: 词义猜测题。根据文章首句,即画线词所在句可知,英国皇家造币厂宣布了建造新工厂的计划,该工厂将对电子垃圾进行处理,以获得用于铸币和金条的贵金属。故画线词意为“获得”。2. What’s a problem with the old electronics if not recycled?( )A. Energy shortage.B. Environmental pollution.C. A lack of workers.D. A waste of gold bars.解析: 细节理解题。第三段最后两句谈到,据估计,全球只有20%的旧电子产品被回收。这不仅仅是一种浪费;这可能很危险,因为当电子垃圾被埋在垃圾场时,金属和化学物质会泄漏出来,污染环境。由此可知,旧电子产品如果不回收利用会造成环境污染问题。3. What does Anne Jessopp think of the new plant?( )A. Costly. B. Risky.C. Promising. D. Demanding.解析: 推理判断题。根据最后一段中安妮·杰索普所说的话可知,新工厂将使皇家造币厂成为可持续使用贵金属的领导者。由此推断,Anne Jessopp认为新工厂是有前途的。B An optical (光存储的) chip has been developed by a multi-institution research group that has the potential to train machine learninghardware. Training of modern-day artificial intelligence(AI) systems costs several million dollars in electric power and requires supercomputer-like equipment.This increasing AI desire leaves an ever-widening difference between computer hardware and demand for AI. Simply, photonic chips (光子芯片) have become a possible solution to deliver higher computing performance.However, though they’ve shown improved heart operations in machine intelligence used for data sort, photonic chips have yet to improve the actual front-end learning and machine training process. Machine learning is a two-step procedure.First,data is used to trainthe system and then other data is used to test the performance of the AIsystem.A team of researchers from several universities set out to do justthat.After one training step, the team observed a mistake and reset thehardware for a second training cycle followed by additional training cyclesuntil an enough AI performance was reached.Thus far, photonic chipshave only shown an ability to sort and conclude information fromdata.Now, researchers have made it possible to speed up the training stepitself. This added AI ability is part of a larger effort around photonic tensorcores (张量核心) and other electronic-photonic application-specificcombined circuits that use photonic chip producing for machine learningand AI applications. “This novel hardware will speed up the training of machine learningsystems and make the best of what both photonics and electronic chipshave to offer.It is a major jump forward for AI hardware speeding-up,”said Volker J. Sorger, founder of a company. “The training of AI systems costs a great deal of energy and carbonfootprint.For example, a single AI transformer takes about five times asmuch CO2 in electricity as a gasoline car spends in its lifetime.Ourtraining on photonic chips will help to reduce this spending.”语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个研究小组开发的一种芯片——光子芯片,该芯片有可能培训机器学习硬件。语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个研究小组开发的一种芯片——光子芯片,该芯片有可能培训机器学习硬件。4. What can we infer about photonic chips from Paragraph 2?( )A. They still have failings.B. They can soon be widely used.C. They are beyond spending on AI.D. They can provide more electric power.解析: 推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句可知,光子芯片有待进一步完善。由此推断,光子芯片仍有缺陷。5. What do the researchers from several universities suggest?( )A. Machine learning has two steps.B. Mistakes are unavoidable in research.C. Speeding up the training step is possible.D. Photonic chips cannot sort information.解析: 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知,现在研究人员已使加快训练步伐本身成为可能。6. What is Volker’s attitude to photonic chips?( )A. Careless. B. Favourable.C. Doubtful. D. Negative.解析: 观点态度题。根据第五段中Volker所说It is a major jumpforward for AI hardware speeding-up和第六段最后一句可知,Volker是支持光子芯片的。Ⅱ.阅读七选五 Could you remember what the first thing you do each day?The firstthing I do when I wake up in the morning is check my phone.And I’llkeep doing that throughout the entire day until I go back to bed.If, likeme, a lot of your technology habits are automatic, you may not even beaware of your behavior.7.( ) But with some efforts, you canengage with the digital world in a way that’s appropriate foryou.Here’s how to get started: 8. ( ) Try turning off push notifications and deleting socialmedia apps from your phone to create natural obstacles to access them.Ofcourse sometimes there are people you know you want to keep up with andusually connect with on a particular platform.In this case, let them knowhow they can stay in touch. Whatever you do,don’t go to bed with your phone.9.( )Sleeping without smartphones improves sleep, relationships, focus andwell-being,and increases happiness and quality of life.So charging yourphone somewhere else could help you experience those benefits.

Your comfort zone represents things you’re familiar with, yourregular haunts, friends you’re at ease with, and activities you lovedoing.Your comfort zone’s risk free.It’s easy.It doesn’t cause you tostretch.Within these boundaries, we feel safe and secure. During my senior year in college, I was short of a few credits, andso I skimmed through the class schedule looking for something to fill thehours.When I came across “Private Voice Instruction”, as in singinglessons, I thought, “Why not step outside my comfort zone and give ita try?” I was careful to sign up for private lessons instead of group lessonsbecause I didn’t want to make a fool of myself by singing in front ofother students. Things went fine until the end of the semester when my singingprofessor brought the shocking news.“By the way, Sean, have youdecided which song you want to sing at the recital?” “What do youmean?” I asked in horror. “Well, the class requirements state that you have to sing at leastone time in front of the other private voice students.” “That would not be a good idea,” I said emphatically. “Oh, it’s no big deal.You’ll do fine.” Well, to me it was a huge deal.The thought of singing in front of agroup made me physically sick.“How am I going to get out of thisone?” I thought.But I couldn’t allow myself to do that because I hadbeen speaking to various groups over the past year advising them to neverlet fears make their decisions.Now ...I was up to bat. “Courage, Sean.” I kept rehearsing in my mind.“You’ve gotto at least try.”注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2. 请按如下格式作答。That frightening day finally arrived. I left the classroom as if a heavy load had been lifted. 参考范文: That frightening day finally arrived.As I entered the classroom, Ikept trying to convince myself, “Just cheer up, OK? This can’t bethat bad.” Now it was my turn.As I stood in front of the class, whichwas far away from my comfort zone, I kept repeating to myself,“Courage! Relax! Take it easy! Just perform your best!” It turnedout that I did such a great job that all the students applauded myperformance warmly.I left the classroom as if a heavy load had been lifted.Although thatexperience nearly killed me, I felt a great sense of personalaccomplishment on my way home.I was so proud of myself and I franklydidn’t care what anyone else thought about my performance.What reallymattered was that I had survived.Stepping out of your comfort zone willnever be easy, but afterward you’ll always be glad you did it.谢谢观看! 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源列表 Section Ⅳ Extended reading & Project & Assessment.docx Section Ⅳ Extended reading & Project & Assessment.pptx Section Ⅳ Extended reading & Project & Assessment(练习,含解析).docx
