21、 The widespread application of internet technology has made our lives easier but poses a big challenge to senior citizens, who are not always comfortable with smart phones and so many new apps.
In China, only a few senior citizens are able to enjoy the benefits that new technologies offer. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the number of people aged 60 and above was 253.88 million in 2019, that is 18 percent of China's population. But only 23 percent of the senior citizens were able to access the internet. That means more than three-fourths of the elderly are deprived of the digital convenience.
Failure to access the internet or use smart phones has increased difficulties for them. They cannot even take a taxi easily in this era of app cabs. There have been reports of many shops turning away elders who don't know how to pay using smart phones, instead of letting them pay in cash. Many elders who can't use smart phones are facing difficulties during this pandemic, as they cannot access the internet-based health code required for entry into many public places as part of the epidemic prevention and control measures.
New technologies become popular because they are often of great use in our daily lives. But many senior citizens, especially those living in rural areas or those whose grownup children don't live with them, cannot access the internet or smart phones, either because of financial restrictions or because they cannot learn new things beyond a certain point. The digital gap between the elderly and the young is becoming more pronounced.
However, the senior citizens should not become a silent group deprived of digital benefits. It is society's responsibility to help them bridge the digital gap, and be patient with them when they face difficulties keeping pace with times.
【1】What do we learn from the text?
A.Not all the elderly are able to enjoy the smart life services.
B.Internet technology has made everyone's life easier.
C.About one-fourth people have easy access to the internet.
D.Smart phones and apps are not designed for the elderly.
【2】What fact do the examples in Paragraph 3 present?
A.Many elders don't know how to hire a taxi.
B.Many elders always go shopping without their smart phones.
C.Many elders have trouble in using the health code.
D.Many elders are not allowed to enter public places during the pandemic.
【3】Which is the closest in meaning to the underlined word in Paragraph 4?
A.Predictable. B.Obvious. C.Avoidable. D.Narrow.
【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.Digital gap makes everything harder.
B.Grownup children should live with the elderly with digital problems.
C.The society should be responsible for the elderly's digital problems.
D.The internet technology provides easy lives for seniors in all respects.
22、Richard Branson, an English business magnate, has had great, global success. He is best known as the founder of Virgin Group, which consists of more than 400 companies.
So what, I asked, is his most important secret to success? His answer was simple: look for the best in other people.
Throughout his life he's never thought ill of other people. He looks for the best and praises them. Branson at times seems almost not human. He's too good at what he does. No, great. Nearly perfect. When he starts something, he is very likely to succeed. He has fallen out with others though, like anyone else. He is human. He told me:"Life is short and the world is much smaller than one realizes. You are going to come across people time and time again in the most surprising places ... As a leader it's even more important to be out there praising and encouraging people. If you do fall out with somebody in life, even if you think it was their mistake, give them a call. Befriend them. Go out to lunch with them."
The greatest leaders in the world have taught forgiveness. Perhaps the most extreme example is Nelson Mandela who invited his former prison guard to his inauguration (就职典礼) and even had lunch with a man who in the past wanted him to be sentenced to death.
Life is too short. We are humans and sometimes we make mistakes and anger people. What defines us is not those who are able to avoid confrontation (对抗), but those who are able to deal with it. The human body is able to self-heal when we are cut. In that same manner, we must heal our past relationships.
Branson wins respect from those around him. A natural-born leader, he is always deep in thought and hungry for more; always one step ahead. And it was Richard Branson who taught me about forgiveness.
【1】Richard Branson's success lies in his ________.
A. determination B. efforts C. judgment D. generosity
【2】The example of Nelson Mandela is mentioned to show ________.
A. he was one of the greatest leaders
B. he suffered a lot in prison
C. great people set a good example of forgiveness
D. the power of forgiveness is magical
【3】What would be the best title for the text?
A. Invite your enemies to lunch
B. Richard Branson's success story
C. What is forgiveness?
D. The key to success
23、On the court, the catwalk, or at the club or corner store, sneakers (or trainers, or sport shoes, or whatever you might call them) seem to include every form, function and fantasy-across sport, fashion, art, movies and music.【1】 “What appealed to me was to tell the story of sneakers in a design context as they are common everyday designed objects that have taken on such great meaning in many people’s lives,” says Ligaya Salazar, the curator of Sneakers Unboxed.
【2】 And, in the process, the community has developed its own identity separate from the fashion community at large. Clearly, there’s something here that draws people in, so what makes these shoes so popular? “I think it’s true that a lot of people just buy expensive shoes because they look cool,” professor Joshua Hoang from Eleanor Roosevelt College said. “However, I also think that there are a lot of people who feel a deeper connection with their shoes.” For many “sneakerheads”, shoes aren’t just about how they look or feel. 【3】
Today, most shoes become meaningful through their association with a well-known star. Many basketball players like Kobe Bryant and James Harden have received their own shoe line. 【4】
However, clear boundaries are hard to draw, as there are simply too many different kinds of fans now that the culture has become mainstream.【5】 It is very likely to create an unhealthy atmosphere among their biggest fan club: The youth. And special editions have driven up prices of some common models as well, drawing complaints from ordinary customers. They said that it’s hard to get a pair of normal shoes for an affordable price.
A．This business strategy has become a main part.
B．Every shoe has a story, something that people remember it by.
C．No one knows why it is so sudden that the young are fond of sneakers.
D．However, the prices of sneakers have become a standard to compare with other teens.
E．Over several decades, sneakers have sealed their social standing as a pop-culture currency.
F．The hobby of collecting expensive sneakers has grown from being a subculture to mainstream.
G．This has also led to unimaginable high prices to some of the rare or super-limited shoes.
24、Although we benefit from deep and meaningful conversations that help us build connections with one another, we often stick to small talk with strangers because we underestimate (低估) how much others are interested in our lives and wrongly believe that deep conversations will be more awkward and less enjoyable than they actually are, according to research published by the American Psychological Association.
Nicholas Epley, a professor of behavioral science at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, and his colleagues designed a series of experiments with more than 1, 800 participants. The researchers asked pairs of people — mainly strangers — to discuss either relatively deep or shallow topics. In the first experiment, people received shallow or deep questions to discuss. Before the conversations, participants predicted how awkward they thought the conversations would be, how connected they thought they would feel to their conversation partner and how much they would enjoy the conversations. Afterward, they rated how awkward the conversations actually were, how connected they actually felt and how much enjoyment they actually experienced.
The researchers found that both deep and shallow conversations felt less awkward than the participants had expected. That effect tended to be stronger for deep conversations.
Deep conversations were also more enjoyable and led to a stronger sense of connection. In the second experiment, participants who had a deep conversation with one partner and a shallow conversation with another partner initially expected to prefer the shallow conversation but actually preferred the deep conversation after having both of them.
“Our participants’ expectations about deep conversations were greatly mistaken in a way that could keep people from interacting deeply with others in their daily lives,” Epley said. “As the pandemic (疫情) wanes and social distance restrictions become less strict, and we all get back to talking with each other again, being aware that others also like deep conversations might lead you to have more pleasant interactions.”
【1】What were the participants asked to do in the first experiment?
A．Choose some topics they prefer.
B．Avoid discussing shallow topics.
C．Make predictions on their feelings.
D．Classify various types of questions.
【2】It’s found that the participants in the first experiment _________.
A．preferred to discuss shallow questions with strangers
B．felt very awkward when conducting deep conversations
C．underestimated how awkward their strange partners felt
D．overestimated the awkwardness of talking with strangers
【3】What does the second experiment find about having deep conversations with strangers?
A．It is easier to conduct than making small talk.
B．It usually causes a weaker sense of connection.
C．It is more enjoyable than having shallow ones.
D．It is more awkward than previously expected.
【4】What does the underlined word “wanes” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A．Worsens.
B．Appears.
C．Spreads.
D．Fades.
