21、   Recently a new network word “ghost” is popular on line, which refers to a sort of Internet social behavior that your net friends or loved ones don’t answer your online messages or phones on purpose as if leaving the earth. Thus you often wonder whether those chatters are ghosts or pretending to be dead. This behavior is called ghosting in the English world, which means “playing with disappearance”.

“Ghost” is better known as a noun referring to spirits of the dead, but “ghost” used as a verb which means “to disappear suddenly like a ghost”, or “play with disappearance” is relatively unknown. Finally, owing to its high using frequency online, this usage has been added to the Oxford Dictionary of Contemporary English.

Playing with disappearance or ghosting also has different grades. Wendy Walsh, a professor of psychology from Boston University told us, “There are different grades of ghosting: If you just read on social software but never answer, you are only a lightweight ghosting player; if you meet a person several times but try to avoid him, you are an ordinary ghosting player; if you let your partner fall in love with you, but you suddenly disappear; which will give the other a heavy blow, you are a heavyweight ghosting player.”

Why are some people accustomed to this kind of escapist social behavior? The Times reports that ghosting has a lot to do with how comfortable people feel and how they deal with their emotions. When they are in a complex interpersonal relationship, or it is too heavy for their weak mind to carry, they will have to choose to escape.

When you find yourself being ghosted, you may lose your self-respect, question yourself, or even hesitate to start the next friendship or love. How to get out of this emotional trouble? It’s important to remember that when you’re ghosted, it’s the other’s fault rather than yours. In addition, it’s good to risk telling others how you really feel, even if it’s not what they want to hear. Have you ever been ghosted? What do you think of this way of dealing with a relationship?

【1】Which sort of the following Internet social behavior can be described as ghosting?

A．Leaving your friend after a quarrel.

B．Love breaking up after a fight.

C．Missing after getting friends’ money.

D．Not replying to net friends on purpose.

【2】According to professor Walsh, if you just read but never reply online, you are a(n) ________ player.

A．heavyweight ghosting

B．non-ghosting

C．lightweight ghosting

D．ordinary ghosting

【3】Which paragraph tells us the reasons why people are used to ghosting?

A．Paragraph 2.

B．Paragraph 3.

C．Paragraph 4.

D．Paragraph 5.

【4】How should you deal with it when you are ghosted according to the writer?

A．Search out their identification on the Internet and reason with them.

B．Never blame yourself and pour out your trouble to others bravely.

C．Keep the trouble in mind and never tell others about it.

D．Turn to psychologists or police for help rather than feel upset.

22、   Alex Palmer says he'll never forget his 13th birthday, not because of a gift or a party, but fire. “It made me realize how valuable life is,” said Alex, a seventh grader at Monroe Demonstration School in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

On April 18, Alex and many other kids from his school were riding home on a school bus when they suddenly saw smoke coming from the bus’ engine. “It was jaw-dropping,” he told reporters.

By the time Alex and some other kids made it out the bus’ back door, the bus was already on fire. And some of their schoolmates were still inside. So he and some of the other older kids took action.

“One little kid was slowing everyone down with his big backpack, ” eighth grader Destiny Fain said, “so I got it off and threw it to the side and helped to make sure all the little kids weren’t fighting or pushing. ”

As that was going on, sixth grader Marketez Doyle-Smith reportedly helped another classmate who had trouble in breathing because of the smoke. “We saw our friend lying on the ground,” he said, “so we took our shirts off and waved them to get him some air to breathe.”

Marketez also reportedly stopped a younger kid trying to get back on the bus to search for something he’d left behind. “We're all a family,” he told reporters. “So I went back to help the little kid.”

Finally everyone made it off safely, thanks to Alex, Destiny, Marketez and several other kids. By later that day, they were already being called heroes. “I really don’t see it as being a hero,” Alex said, according to The World. “I see it as the right thing to do—helping others before you help yourself.”

23、The sunflower sea star has been listed as a critically endangered species following a groundbreaking population study led by Oregon State University (OSU) and The Nature Conservancy.

“These giant sea stars used to be easy to find and were a hit with divers. Unfortunately, your chances of finding one now are next to nothing in most of the areas near the United States—this listing is one step to extinction—and I don’t think they’re coming back without help,” said OSU’s Sarah Gravem, a research associate in the College of Science and the lead author of the study.

Populations of the sunflower sea star suffered dramatic crashes because of a marine (海洋的) wildlife epidemic (流行性的) event, which began in 2013. Scientists used more than 61,000 population surveys from 31 data sets to calculate a 90.6% decline in the sunflower sea stars and estimated that as many as 5.75 billion animals died from the disease, whose cause has not been determined. Moreover, the research showed no sign of population recovery in any region in the five to seven years since the event.

Sunflower sea stars are a key catcher of purple sea urchins (海胆) and the sea star decline has helped the increase in the urchin population in many regions. Too many urchins are linked to a decline in kelp forests (海藻林) already facing pressure from marine heat wave events, making the future uncertain for ecosystems that provide habitat for thousands of marine animals and help support coastal economies.

“Because most people aren’t out in the ocean every day, we don’t realize how much it’s being changed and impacted by humans. We need to think about how to keep our ocean healthy. While reducing the release of carbon dioxide is the most pressing need, rebuilding key catcher populations, like the sunflower sea star, can be an important piece of the puzzle too,” said study co-author Sara Hamilton, a Ph. D. candidate in the OSU College of Science.

【1】What can we infer about sunflower sea stars from Sarah Gravem’s words?

A．They attract many tourists to the United States.

B．They cannot adapt to the new environment.

C．They cannot recover on their own.

D．They present a danger to divers.

【2】What led to the sharp decline in the number of sunflower sea stars?

A．Human beings’ overfishing.

B．The arnval of a new species.

C．The rising ocean temperature.

D．The occurrence of a marine disease.

【3】What is the relationship between sunflower sea stars and the sea kelp forests?

A．The sea kelp forests provide habitats for sunflower sea stars.

B．Sunflower sea stars help preserve the sea kelp forests.

C．Sunflower sea stars feed on the sea kelp forests.

D．Their common enemies are sea urchins.

【4】What might Sara Hamilton agree with?

A．More species should be introduced to the ocean.

B．Scientists play the most important role in protecting the ocean.

C．The influence of human activities on the ocean is not getting serious.

D．More action should be taken to increase the number of sunflower sea stars.

24、Surfing the Internet for fun will make you a better employee, according to an Australian study.

The University of Melbourne study shows that people who use the Internet for their own reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive than those who do not. Study author Brent Coker said, “Surfing the Internet at times helps increase an employee’s attention.”

“People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention,” Coker said on the university’s website. “Having a short break, such as a quick surfing of the Internet, helps the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day’s work, and as a result, increases productivity(生产效率),”he said.

According to the study of 300 workers, 70 percent of people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reasons during office hours. Among the most popular surfing activities are searching for information about products, reading online news, playing online games and watching videos. “Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watching video, using social networking sites or shopping online,” said Coker. “That’s not always a good idea.”

However, Coker said the study looked at people who surfed the Internet in moderation (适度), or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office. “Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without,” he said.

【1】What does the University of Melbourne study mainly show?

A．People who surf the Internet are good employees.

B．Not everyone surfs the Internet for fun during office hours.

C．Surfing the Internet for fun during office hours increases productivity.

D．The Internet is becoming more and more important in people’s life.

A．the longer a person’s mind rests ,the better attention he will have

B．surfing the Internet is the best way to increase productivity

C．workers should have a long break during office hours

D．Workers should let their minds rest now and then

【3】Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as one of the most popular surfing activities?

A．Watching videos.

B．Reading online news.

C．Reading online novels

D．Playing online games.

【4】What can we infer form the last paragraph?

A．Spending too much time surfing the Internet reduces productivity.

B．Those who never surf the Internet have the lowest productivity.

C．Most people don’t surf the Internet in moderation during office hours.

D．People should spend as little time as possible surfing the Internet.

25、I can still remember every change of intonation whenever I recall what that old lady said to me, “Life may give me up, but I’ll never give up my life.”
