For Those in Crisis, a Friend to Text
"A 19-year-old woman wrote to me in a text message, saying she was feeling hopeless and beginning to give up on life.."
Aaron, a veteran(老兵) , has himself suffered from the similar stress and depression. He 31 the feeling. For the past year,Aaron has been volunteering with the Crisis Text Line(CTL), a free 24-hour service that people in need of a lifeline can 32 through the number 741741. The line currently has 1,500 volunteer Crisis Consultants across the country and has 33 more than 19 million texts---50, 000 messages a day.
As he had been instructed, Aaron "listened" openly and 34 to the young woman. He didn't offer advice; he didn't try to help her solve her problems. Mostly, his messages 35 back what he had heard from her, occasionally emphasizing a strength that he'd noticed---like the fact that she'd taken this step to help herself even in the middle of her depression.
"A lot of people feel extremely lonely, " he says. "Sometimes it takes a (n) 36 , not a close friend, to say. "Hey, you've been through a lot, but you've been helping yourself. If you can do that, you can do more. "Many people reply, I've never thought about it that way." The goal of a crisis line, explains Nancy Lublin, who runs the CTL, is 37 . It's not treatment; it's meant to bring people from "a moment of hot to a moment of cool,"so consultants can suggest ways the texter can move to a place of 38 safety.
Researchers are excited about the text line. "Teens have been reluctant to use crisis services, observes Anthony Pisani. "The CTL offers a layer of protection from the 39 of expressing your weaknesses."
As for the woman with whom Aaron was communicating, the opportunity to share her feelings with a kind stranger appeared to help."She said she couldn't remember the last time anyone had told her they believed in her, "Aaron recalls. She 40 the conversation the way people often do,by texting. "Thanks for listening."
III. Reading Comprehension( 45 分)
Section A( 15 分)
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
In years with hotter weather, pupils are likely to perform less well in exams, says a major study from researchers at Harvard and other US universities. There is a "significant" 41 between higher temperatures and lower school achievement, say economic researchers.
An analysis of 42 scores of 10 million US secondary school students over 13 years shows hot weather has a negative impact on results. The study says a practical 43 could be to use more air conditioning. Students taking exams in a summer heatwave might have always complained that they were 44 by the hot and uncomfortable weather.
But this study, from academics at Harvard, the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) and Georgia State University, claims to have produced the first clear 45 showing that when temperatures go up, school performance goes down. Researchers have 46 how secondary school students performed in tests in different years across the different 47 patterns within the US. The study found that students were more likely to have lower scores in years with higher temperatures and better results in cooler years.
This 48 across the many different types of climate---whether in cooler northern US states or in the southern states where temperatures are typically much higher. The study, Heat and Learning, suggested that hotter weather made it harder to study in lessons in school and to 49 homework out of school. Researchers calculated that for every 0.55℃ increase in average temperature over the year, there was a 1% fall in 50 . Colder days did not seem to damage achievement---but the negative impact began to be 51 as temperatures rose above 21℃. The reduction in learning increased quickly once temperatures rose above 32℃ and even more so above 38℃. Joshua Goodman, associate professor at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government, and his co-authors provide evidence that the "heat's destruction of instruction or homework time is responsible for the 52 drop in test scores".
But Mr Goodman says it would have been harder to carry out similar studies in the education systems in the UK, because the differences in weather conditions would have been much 53 . The wide range of weather conditions in the US allows 54 within the same year group as well as with test performances in previous years.The study also asks whether heat plays a part in the huge 55 differences in achievement within the US. Northern states such as Massachusetts have very high levels of achievement in intenational tests. But southern states such as Alabama and Mississippi are at a level below European countries and closer to Turkey and Mexico.

Section B( 22 分)
Directions: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Fifteen years ago, I took a summer vacation in Lecce in southern Italy. After climbing up a hill for a panoramic(全景的)view of the blue sea, white buildings and green olive trees, I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama.
Unfortunately, just as I took out my camera, a woman approached from behind, and planted herself right in front of my view. Like me, this woman was here to stop, sigh and appreciate the view.
Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take, I grew frustrated. Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape Sure, I could have asked her, but something prevented me from doing so. She seemed so content in her observation. I didn't want to mess with that.
Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman was still there. I decided to take the photo anyway. And now when I look at it, I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting.The landscape, beautiful on its own, somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it.
This photo, with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who "ruined"it, now hangs on a wall in my bedroom. What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured(捕 捉 ) and frozen on some stranger's bedroom wall A bedroom, after all, is a very private space, in which some woman I don't even know has been immortalized(使 永 存 ). In some ways, she lives in my house.
Perhaps we all live in each others’ spaces. Perhaps this is what photos are for; to remind us that we all appreciate beauty, and that we all share a common desire for pleasure, for connection,
for something that is greater than us.
That photo is a reminder, a captured moment, an unspoken conversation between two women, separated only by a thin square of glass.
56. What happened when the author was about to take a photo
A. Her camera stopped working. B. A woman blocked her view
C.Someone asked her to leave. D. A friend approached from behind.
57. According to the author, the woman was probably___
A. enjoying herself B. losing her patience
C. waiting for the sunset D. thinking about her past
58. In the author's opinion, what makes the photo so alive
A. The rich color of the landscape.
B. The perfect positioning of the camera.
C. The woman's existence in the photo.
D. The soft sunlight that summer day.
59. The passage can be seen as the author's reflections(反思) upon__
A. a particular life experience B. the pleasure of traveling
C. the art of photography D. a lost friendship

The concept of"biohacking" has been gaining popularity in recent years. It refers to the practice of using DIY biology and technology to improve one's physical and mental health, as well as overall well-being. Biohackers, as they are called, often experiment with various techniques and tools to better their bodies and minds.
One of the most popular biohacking practices is the use of nootropics, also known as "brain boosters". These are substances that are believed to enhance cognitive functions such as memory, focus, and creativity. Nootropics can range from natural supplements and Omega-3 fatty acids to synthetic compounds.
Another common biohacking technique is the practice of intermittent fasting, which involves cycling between periods of eating and fasting, usually in a pattern of 16/8 (16 hours of fasting and 8 hours of eating) or 5/2 (five days of normal eating and two days of fasting). Intermittent fasting is believed to promote weight loss, and even extend lifespan.
Biohackers also experiment with various forms of physical enhancement. This can include anything from using biofeedback devices to monitor and regulate physiological processes, to undergoing extreme physical transformations such as implants and body modifications. Some biohackers oven go as far as to use gene-editing technologies like CRISPR to modify their DNA for enhanced physical traits.
However, biohacking is not without its risks. The use of unregulated supplements and drugs can lead to unpredictable side effects, and some biohacking practices may even be illegal. Furthermore, the long-term effects of many biohacking techniques are still unknown, making it difficult to assess their safety and effectiveness.
Despite these risks, the biobacking movement continues to grow in popularity. Many people are drawn to the idea of taking control of their own health and well-being through DIY biology and technology. As the movement evolves, it will be important for researchers and regulators to monitor its impact on human health and society.
63. The term "biohacking" refer to___
A.Using technology to improve physical appearance.
B. Using DIY biology and technology to improve health and well-being.
C.Experimenting with dangerous drugs and supplements.
D.Undergoing extreme physical transformations for aesthetic reasons
64. Which of the following is a popular biobacking practice
A.Using biofeedback devices to monitor sleep patterns
B. Taking nootropics to enhance cognitive functions C.Undergoing gene editing for aesthetic purposes.
D. Practicing intermittent fasting to gain muscle mass.
65. What are the potential risks associated with biohacking
A. Mild side effects and short-term health issues.
B. Immediate side effects and potential illegality.
C.Illegal practices and insecurity.
D. Long-term health issues and unknown effects.
66. What is the author's attitude towards the biohacking movement
A. Neutral. B. Opposed. C.Supportive. D. Critical.
Section C( 8 分)
Directions: Read the following text from which four sentences have removed. Choose from the sentences A-F the most suitable one to fill each numbered gap in the text. There are two extra sentences that you do not need to use. Mark your answers on your answer sheet.
A.The two types of comics are created in very different ways. B. But for people who love comic books, they can be a fantastic escape from the tough realities of modern life. C. They find it hard to understand why comic books appeal to so many people. D. Comics have lost its charm in America. E. In Japan, the contrast couldn't be greater. F. Manga heroes look smaller,younger than all-conquering American heroes who have large muscles and lots of themed clothes.
Japanese and American Comic Book Heroes
To some people, the idea of reading comic books seem childish. 67 Comics are published globally, but Japanese and American versions dominate the market despite fact or perhaps because they differ in a number of ways.
68 American comics are a group effort, beginning with the story-writing team and the artist who produces drawings of initial ideas. When these drafts are finalized, the outlines, dialogue, and color are added. Also, creators of comic superheroes sometimes sell their titles to other creative teams, who keep the superhero "alive". This is in sharp contrast to manga(日本漫画) creators,who are often individual authors merely responsible for the storylines, dialogue, and artwork. When a manga creator decides to stop, so does the hero.
Another difference is the appearance of the heroes. 69 Also, manga heroes rarely look Japanese and the stories do not typically take place in a Japanese context. However, American comic heroes, despite their masks, are proudly American and are admired for their readiness to defend U.S. cities.
Probably the biggest difference is the readership. Up until the 1950s, American comic books
were read by both children and adults, with poplar titles such as Superman selling as many as half a million copies per month. The arrival of TV, however, led to a decline in sales so that now the average reader of an American comic book is a teenage boy with an interest in superheroes. 70 There manga sales are still booming, reaching as high as 7 billion dollars each year largely because readers range from young boys and girls up to middle-aged men and women. Manga for men and boys, like the American comics, tend to be action-oriented, while manga for women and girls tend to be focused on relationships.
IV. 71. Summary( 10 分)
Directions: Read the passage and write a summary within 60 words.
Find Your New Favourite Hobby
"Challenging, fun and engaging hobbies have the power to make us happier and healthier says Kate Hanselnan with a laugh, and that's why her home is a grand hobby exhibition--- fencing equipment.multiple pairs of rock-climbing shoes, yam everywhere for knitting... Research has proved that hobbies help people in creative,physical,and intellectual ways.The only questions is: how can we find our new favorite hobby
Matthew J. Zawazki, a professor of health psychology advises that we ask ourselves how we want an activity to make us feel.Mentally engaged Distracted Relaxed Socially connected It's helpful to consider what your life is missing and recognizing these needs maters" says Mathew. Hobbies present an escape as they help us calm down, so figuring out the answers to the above questions can be vital.
Rebecca Weiler, a mental health adviser warns us not to invest a ton of time and money in a new hobby immediately."Always case in to figure out if it's right for you,"she says,"You can always do more later."So, if you're taking an interest in pottery, sign up to do a one-time class rather than a set of eight. Besides, she adds that it's smart to resist the pressure to overcommit. "You spend enough of your day pushing yourself, but hobbies are supposed to be fun. So you can stop anytime as long as you don't like a certain part in your hobby."
Katina Bajaj, a clinic psychology researcher, wants to remind us of our childhood."When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up The answer could point you towards an appealing hobby,"according to Katina. Revisiting activities we loved when young is really helpful to start with because it allows you to feel comfortable. Childhood joys can easily develop into adult hobbies.
