21、Sometimes, we are influenced by the post-book & series blues.

We all have those pains of stress around the last few episodes (集) of our current favorite TV show, about the junction where there will be no “Next Episode” button to click. For many hours, days, and weeks, we invest ourselves in the plot, characters, and the world of the show, only to realize that it - after all - exists inside a screen. Therefore, it is meaningless to have those pains, which is similar to reading storybooks.

You get a story, escapism, possibly even life-changing revelations. In return they get your undivided attention. But what happens when you finally re-emerge from that transaction? The longer it goes on for, the harder the end seems to be.

It’s a sense of loss that you feel at the end of a book and you’re unhappy. It’s like saying goodbye to so many friends you’ve made, because you’ve got to know this person over the course of the book and now there’s no more connection, -and this is why sequels (续集)do so well - it’s that continuity.

One key to emotional connection is the all-important protagonist (主角). It’s why some people deliberately don’t finish certain books, because either they may not want to know what happens to a favorite character, or the end of a special read is worth prolonging forever.

Fiction and non-fiction stories have always been there to help catch our fall during troubled times. It’s pure, healthy escapism.

Perhaps the best way to get over the post-book or post-series blues is to be grateful for what you’ve learned, and enjoy where your creative thinking has taken you.

【1】What is the second paragraph mainly about?

A．Junctions in TV shows.

B．Pains from TV shows.

C．Characters of TV shows.

D．Episodes of TV shows.

【2】What do people gain in return after getting a story?

A．Escapism.

B．Revelation.

C．Attention.

D．Happiness.

【3】Why do people get a sense of loss after reading a book?

A．They are addicted to the characters.

B．They say good-bye to their friends.

C．They know the person in the book.

D．They are fond of reading.

【4】What is the best title for the passage?

A．Imagination after an episode.

B．Escapism.

C．Post book & series blues.

D．Emotion.

22、What to Eat—and What to Skip—When It Comes to Takeout Food

If the burden on your wallet doesn't bother you much, the effect your takeout habit can have on your waistline just might arouse your attention. Here's the best and worst of the lot for your belly.

Steamed Vegetable Dumplings: Order This.

When she orders Chinese, registered dietitian nutritionist Elisa Zied gets an order of steamed vegetable dumplings. "I often pair them with either chicken and broccoli in brown sauce（I ask for a little sauce made without sugar）or steamed shrimp dumplings," she tells us.

Crab Wontons: Not That!

When you deconstruct crab wontons, it's easy to see why they're a "Not That!" The inside is filled with crabmeat and cream cheese（which is just a fancy, spreadable fat）.The wonton is made of refined flour, egg and salt and the crispy（脆的）coating is a result of a deep oil bath.

Peking Duck: Order This.

Most of the fat from the skin flows out of the duck over the course of cooking, making this a healthier choice than most of the stir-fry dishes available. Order a side of steamed vegetables and serve it with a small scoop of brown rice. Done and done!

Sweet and Sour Anything: Not That!

Anything with “sweet and sour” in its title is a powerful cue that something has been deep-fried and covered in a sickly-sweet pink sauce. If you pair your selection with a side of rice, you're looking at a 1,000-calorie meal.

Summer Roll: Order This.

Summer rolls are steamed instead of fried—and typically filled with lean proteins and vegetables, making them a winning appetizer in our book. Pair them with an order of edamame（毛豆）and a broth-based soup for a satisfying, filling meal.

Spring Roll: Not That!

Spring=deep-fried, which is why we say to skip them! They're filled with fat and calories your belly doesn't need.

【1】What kind of cooking method should be skipped according to the text?

A．Steaming.

B．Stir-frying.

C．Deep-frying.

D．Boiling.

【2】Which of the following suits as a good starter for a meal?

A．Chicken and broccoli.

B．Steamed vegetable dumplings.

C．Peking duck.

D．Summer rolls.

【3】Where can the text be found?

A．In a recipe.

B．In a guidebook.

C．In a science fiction.

D．In a health magazine.

23、   When studying English, it’s best to focus on the big picture. Trying to improve your speaking? Aim for fluency and “standard” pronunciation. Want to get better at writing? Practice vocabulary and grammar.

But this way of learning, though necessary, misses one big thing: all the differences there are in how different people speak English. For example, people from the US and the UK speak very differently. If a British friend invited me to eat lunch at his apartment, he might say: “Come over to mine ‘round 12 pm’.”

But if I invited him over, I might say: “Be at my place a little after 12.” “My place” is more commonly used in the US; “mine” is more frequently used in the UK – both are informal ways of saying “my house” or “my apartment”.

Even people in different parts of the US speak very differently. For example, imagine that you are talking to a group of people and want to address them all at once. What pronoun do you use? “You”, you should reply — that’s the correct pronoun whether you’re addressingone person or a group.

But using “you” to address multiple people feels strange in conversation, so speakers find ways around it. The most common choice around the US is to say “you guys”. But working class natives of my hometown, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, say “yinz”: as in, “yinz wanna go to the bar later to watch the game?” In eastern Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey, some people say “youse”: as in, “youse are always hanging out in the street”. In the southern US, people say “y’all”: as in, “don’t forget about us, y’all!”

The point is, there’s a lot more to languages than what’s standard and proper. So take a tour around the US, y’all. Yinz will be glad that youse did it.

【1】Which aspect of language learning does the author specifically focus on in the article?

A．The reason why we need to practice standard pronunciation.

B．How to learn from native speakers.

C．How to see the big picture when speaking English.

D．The different ways native speakers use the language.

【2】The underlined word “addressing” in Paragraph 4 probably means ______.

A．turning to.

B．dealing with.

C．speaking to.

D．sending a letter to.

【3】If someone greets you and your family by saying “It’s good seein’ y’all!”, he is likely from ______.

A．the southern US.

B．Pennsylvania.

C．New York.

D．New Jersey.

24、   A recent study shows that more than 90% of adults report hearing earworm songs on a weekly basis. They can't walk into their office without Rihanna's voice singing “work, work, work” in their mind. That was commonly known as earworm songs — those sticky tunes that continue to play in their heads.

Luckily, most people report earworm songs as pleasant. But others find them annoying or even maddening. “Some people are troubled by them to the point that it disturbs life,” says Elizabeth Margulis, a professor who has studied earworm songs.

Margulis says earworm songs tend to have some predictable characteristics. For one thing, they tend to be small parts of a song — not the whole track. And “the songs you've heard recently also have the most possibility to get stuck in your memory,” she says.

But sometimes something strange and unpredictable can also start a track playing in your head. “Once I was at the doctor's office and saw a poster of a man who I thought looked like Gaston — a character from Beauty and the Beast,” Margulis recalls. A couple minutes passed, and she realized she couldn't get “Be our Guest”, the song in the movie, out of her head, even though she hadn't thought of the tune in years. In that instance, she was able to identify what touched of her earworm: the Gaston-looking man in the poster. “But the connections can be really unclear,” she says.

Margulis points out that, in all of human history, recorded music is a very new phenomenon. She says some have inferred that earworm songs are also new — the unintended consequence of being able to hear the same song played everywhere in the same way over and over again. So far, the convincing explanation for why human beings experience earworm songs remains a mystery. But there are some well-established ways to cast off the earworm songs.

“Finding a mentally demanding task and putting your mind on it usually shifts attention away from internal music. People tend to get earworms when performing tasks that don't require their full attention — stuff like doing the dishes,” Margulis says.

Chewing gum can also help. When a song is stuck in our heads, it's almost like we're singing along with it. If you make your mouth do something else — chewing gum, eating a meal or talking with a friend — that can kick out the earworm.

You could also face your enemy. By listening to the full track that includes the passage stuck in your head, you may find “closure” and relief.

【1】You probably experience an earworm song in _______

A.a song worth memorable B.a song sung by a recently famous singer.

C.a song heard very often recently D.a song in a famous movie

【2】The underlined words touched of in paragraph 4 means _______.

A.left off B.set off

C.took D.put off

【3】We can infer that earworm songs may _______.

A.stem from modern technology

B.hurt one's feeling

C.be experienced whenever someone sees a poster

D.help regain lost memories

【4】The purpose of the last three paragraphs is to introduce _____ .

A.Why we hear earworm songs B.Where to find earworm songs

C.How to get over earworm songs D.When we hear earworm songs

25、We did homework in the kitchen while my mom cooked. Usually, I complained about my classmates treating me _______ . “She didn't even save me a seat.” or "He _______ my pencil."

I was _______ and argued that it was the faults of other kids. I felt so _______ that I didn't think I could ever forgive my mother.

26、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。

Not too long ago, I was at the grocery store(杂货店), and an elderly man in front of me was using a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)card—what we used to call food stamps. The card reader kept rejecting his payment. He had apparently gone over his limit for the month. He was confused about how it had happened and more than a little distressed about the situation. While I was trying to decide if the man would be offended or grateful if I offered to step in and pay the difference(支付差额), the young man checking him out (who looked to still be in high school) said, “Sir, this happens all the time. It’s not a problem. I bet we can figure out a solution together.”

The line behind us was growing long, but the young man didn’t show an ounce of impatience or anger. He confirmed that the man was, indeed, over his limit for the month and found the amount of the overage. It turned out that he wasn’t over by much, so the checker helped the customer determine which two or three items that he could make do without until his account was replenished(重新装满). “You’ll definitely want to keep the milk and the butter and the eggs and the bread,” I remember him saying as he looked through the already bagged groceries. Then the clerk, who had clearly done this before, pulled out a jar of salsa, a bottle of juice and some crackers that he and his customer agreed could wait until the beginning of the new month. The young man assured his older customer, once again, that this was a common occurrence and not a problem at all. The man left with his dignity intact(完好无损)and, no doubt, with a renewed sense of loyalty to that grocery-store chain.

注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

When it was my turn, I told the young man that he had done an extraordinary job.
