21、Despite the life-saving COVID-19 vaccines (疫苗), so many people died in the second year of the pandemic in the US that the nation’s life expectancy dropped for a second year in a row last year, according to a new analysis.

The analysis of government statistics found US life expectancy fell by just under half a year in 2021, adding to a dramatic drop in life expectancy that occurred in 2020. Dr. Steven Woolf, a professor of population health and health expert at Virginia Commonwealth University, who helped conduct the analysis, said many of the deaths occurred in people in the prime of their lives. And Woolf added that it drove the overall US life expectancy to fall to 76.6 years—the lowest in at least 25 years.

“Shame on the US,” said Noreen Goldman, a professor at Princeton University. The 2021 drop came after US life expectancy fell in 2020, dropping by almost two years. It’s unclear why this happened, but Woolf and others thought it may be due in part to some Americans more likely to live in states with fewer restrictions, so they let down their guard more, while often refusing to get vaccinated.

“The deaths that occurred in 2021 were a product not only of a lack of COVID-19 vaccines, which was a factor, but also being in places that didn’t observe policies like masking and social distancing that prevented spread of the virus, which was the main reason,” Woolf said.

The 2021 drop also widened the gap in life expectancy between the US and other countries, the analysis found. That was due primarily to lower vaccination rates in the US, researchers said. The researchers also said a big part of that was fewer restrictions and more vaccine hesitation in the US, which resulted in lower vaccination rates and a much higher death number. The other health problems like heart attack and overweight also played a role, they said.

“We spent a fortune on medical care and we’re a high-income country. Our government should be able to do far better,” Goldman said.

A．About 79.1 years.

B．About 78.6 years.

D．About 76.6 years.

A．Lack of medicine.

B．Powerful virus.

C．Violation of anti-epidemic policies.

D．The government’s negative act.

【3】Which column of a magazine can this text come from?

A．Politics.

B．Science.

C．Education.

D．Health.

【4】What is Goldman’s attitude toward the government?

A．Unsatisfied.

22、   Did you know that many people today are getting extra work by taking translating jobs online?

It’s true! And you can do it too. Many companies in the USA need translators now to translate simple documents online from Chinese to English, such as emails, website content, movie subtitles and more.

Companies like Real Translator Jobs are actively seeking translators from China to fill demand. There are more translation jobs than people to complete them. This leaves a big opportunity for anyone to start doing this and earn extra money.

Do you have to speak perfect English? No! Even basic knowledge of English is OK. This is really a job for anyone from China who wants to do it.

We spoke to one student from Beijing, Harris, who has been doing this for 2 years now and is earning between $150 and $225 every day. He completes about 3 to 4 jobs per day which takes him about 3 hours. It’s an incredible amount of money to earn on your spare time!

It is great that we now live in the “Information Age” and opportunities like this are available to people in China to earn extra money working from home over the Internet. It’s something that our parent’s generation could have never imagined. This type of work is surely to do great things for young people in China.

If you would also like to do this, it’s easy to get started. Just follow these steps:

1. Sign up at Real Translator Jobs (where Chinese translators are needed now), or a similar service.

2. Review the job posting and complete the ones you like.

3. Get paid once per month by cheque, PayPal or bank wire transfer.

I hope you enjoyed this information and good luck earning extra money online translating documents.

23、   When Shakespeare was twenty-one, he went to London to try his fortune in that great city, and a very interesting place was the London of his day.

There was the famous London Bridge and St. Paul’s Cathedral, and palaces and markets and long streets full of shops.

Then, too, there were the daily crowds where people from all over the world could be seen. Knights, scholars and the highwayman or thief, who had been infamous for his clever robberies,

Here, also, were noblemen dressed in gold, from Italy and Spain and France; slaves from Spanish America, sea captains and ministers, soldiers and servants—all held by chance or interest within the gray walk，ls which circled London, and whose gates gave welcome to as strange a crowd as could be found in the world.

Into this curious crowd came Shakespeare, quick to see and eager to learn. And before long all these strange sights were as familiar to him as the faces of his own town’s residents. Each one told its story to him so plainly that, as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and woods, so now he learned men and men’s interests that make up the great world.

And he learned these lessons so well that when he came to write his plays, he made such use of them as no writer ever made before or since; for it is the use of this knowledge of the world, combined with his own genius, that makes Shakespeare the greatest dramatist that has ever lived.

【1】What was London like in Shakespeare’s eyes when he first went there?

A．Strange and interesting.

B．Dirty and small.

C．Infamous and terrible.

D．Familiar and modern.

【2】Which of the following best describes Shakespeare?

A．Shakespeare got inspiration to write from his hometown, London.

B．Shakespeare was eager to make friends with the noblemen in London.

C．Shakespeare became the greatest dramatist owing to his own genius.

D．Shakespeare was good at observing and learning from the daily life.

【3】What does the word “one” in paragraph 5 refer to?

A．Face.

B．Sight.

C．Crowd.

24、The older of two sisters, Jane Goodall was born on April 3, 1934, in London, England, into a middle class British family. When Goodall was about two years old, her mother gave her a toy chimpanzee, which Goodall still possesses to this day. She was a good student, but she had more interest in being outdoors and learning about animals. Once she spent five hours in a hen-house so she could see how a hen lays an egg. She loved animals so much that by the time she was ten or eleven she dreamed of living with animals in Africa. Her mother encouraged Goodall's dream, which eventually became a reality.

When Goodall was eighteen she completed secondary school and began working. She worked as a secretary, as an assistant editor in a film studio, and as a waitress, trying to save enough money to make her first trip to Africa.

Jane Goodall finally went to Africa when she was twenty-three years old. In 1957 she sailed to Mombasa on the east African coast, where she met anthropologist (人类学家) Louis Leakey (1903-1972), who would become her mentor, or teacher. In Africa, Leakey and his wife, Mary, had discovered what were then the oldest known human remains. These discoveries supported Leakey’s claim that the origins of the human species were in Africa, not in Asia or Europe as many had believed.

Leakey hoped that studies of the primate (灵长目动物的) species most closely related to human beings chimpanzees, gorillas, and orangutans — would shed (散发) light on the behavior of the human animal’s ancestors. He chose Goodall for this work because he believed that as a woman she would be more patient and careful than a male observer and that as someone with little formal training she would be more likely to describe what she saw rather than what she thought she should be seeing.

Later Goodall turned her attention to the problem of captive (被囚禁的) chimpanzees. Because they closely resemble humans, chimpanzees have been widely used as laboratory animals to study human diseases. Goodall used her knowledge and fame to work to set limits on the number of animals used in such experiments and to convince researchers to improve the conditions under which the animals were kept. She also worked to improve conditions for zoo animals and for conservation of chimpanzee habitats. In 1986 she helped found the Committee for the Conservation and Care of Chimpanzees, an organization dedicated to these issues. She has even written children’s books, The Chimpanzee Family Book and With Love, on the subject of treating animals kindly.

For her efforts Goodall has received many awards and honors. In 2000 she accepted the third Gandhi-King award for Non Violence at the United Nations. She does not spend much time in Africa anymore; rather, she gives speeches throughout the world and spends as many as three hundred days a year traveling.

【1】What is Jane Goodall’s major achievements?

A．Her books for children to learn about nature.

B．Her observation of how the hen lay an egg.

C．Her study of the chimpanzee behavior.

D．Her finding of the origins of the human species.

【2】Where does this passage probably come from?

A．Science fiction.

B．A biography book.

C．A handbook about animal protection.

D．A travel brochure.

【3】Which one is not the reason for Leakey’s choosing Goodall as an assistant?

A．She would be more patient and careful than a male observer.

B．She helped found the Committee for the Conservation and Care of Chimpanzees.

C．She was more likely to record what really happens though lacking formal training.

D．She had more interest in being outdoors and learning about animals.

【4】Which of the following is not mentioned about Goodall?

A．She went to Africa when she was twenty-three years old.

B．She accepted the third Gandhi-King Award for Non Violence.

C．Her discoveries supported Leakey’s claim of the origins of the human species.

D．She worked to improve conditions for zoo animals.
