26、   For over fifty years, most likely starting with the tour in America of young Welsh poet Dylan Thomas in the early 1950s, poetry enthusiasts have gathered together to share their interest in poetry by reading aloud their favorite poems. Some of these spoken word performances feature well-known poets, and all, professional and amateur alike, sincerely take the stage to communicate on a wide range of subjects. Most events take place on college campuses, in well-decorated coffee shops, and in local saloons.

To further their popularity, “poetry readings” have taken on a new dimension—the spirit of competition. This competition, named the “Poetry Slam”, began in 1986 in a Chicago, Illinois bar in America, when a construction worker and poet, Marc Smith, decided that he needed some help with his own poetry readings. He asked the audience to rate his poems from 1 to 10. With audience interaction and input, it became an instant success.

Poetry Slam is carried on today with five poets performing one poem each in three rounds. Five judges are selected from the audience, and these five give their scores to the “slam master” at the end of each reading. Scores are based upon whether the poets have set off emotions in the audience’s mind, requiring not only good poetry writing skills, but also the ability to speak and deliver the poem in a dramatic way. The lowest and highest scores are removed, and the three left over are added up. The winner is announced at the end of the rounds and may attend other competitions in other places with a higher standing than before. It is not uncommon for “slam poets” to go to other countries to compete. National and International contests are held in Asia, Africa, Europe, and North and South America.

Attending and participating in this sporty game of words and emotions has been shorten to the expression “slamming”. Slamming has become not only a world phenomenon but a sub-culture as well, being well received among young poets and those of diverse backgrounds. It provides a stage for them to express our fragile human condition in a very entertaining and artful way.

27、A program developed by the Prime Minister David Cameron in Britain was run to measure the nation's well­being(幸福感)recently.

The Office for National Statistics(ONS) analysed responses from more than 2,000 people. The results showed that job security, personal health and relationships between family members were at the top three of most people's concerns.

Other key factors of a happy life were parents' sense of the security of their children's future. Parents are often concerned whether their children can have a good life and a nice place to live. People were more likely to consider having a job to be important to them than being paid a high salary.

Anastasia, a social policy analyst, said employment was central to people's sense of identity and well­being. “A job is about your life; it is not about your income，” she said, “It is about every aspect—having the motivation to get up in the morning, self­respect and being a role model for your children. Income is almost secondary to that. People's lives fall apart if they don't have a job. They are much more likely to be depressed if they are out of work, and there is a strong relationship between unemployment and family breakdown and health difficulties.”

The Prime Minister launched the program in an attempt to create a broader measure of Britain's success than the performance of the economy. Mr Cameron said governments had a role in helping people feel better and that the national well­being index should help wider society build a better life.

Paul Allin, director of the well­being project at the ONS, said the program would combine objective data, such as employment and life expectancy rates, with subjective(主观的) measures, such as job satisfaction and self­reported health, to give a more complete picture of national well­being. “We want to encourage people to tell us what matters to them，” he said, “The more responses we have to the debate, the more realistic a picture of the UK we will have.”

【1】What is the purpose of David Cameron's program?

A. To help people live a happier life.

B. To tell people what is real happiness.

C. To find out people's attitude towards happiness.

D. To see if people are satisfied with the government.

【2】According to the passage, the top three factors that affect most people's happiness are ________.

a．personal health

b．high salary

c．job security

d．relationships between family members

A. a，b，c   B. a，c，d

C. b，c，d   D. a，b，d

【3】Which of the following is NOT the view of Anastasia on employment?

A. It requires people to get up in the morning.

B. It helps people keep his or her self­respect.

C. It makes people be an example to his or her children.

D. It brings enough money for people to live on.

【4】What can we learn from the passage?

A. The program pushes the government to develop the economy.

B. More people are encouraged to take part in the program.

C. It's difficult to get a satisfying answer from the program.

D. Getting a high income is more important than having a job.

28、About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!

There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green － a strange world indeed.

Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.

Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes prefer blue to yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.

【1】 The passage is mainly about _____________.

A. color blindness

B. women being luckier than men

C. danger caused by color blindness

D. color and its surprising effects.

【2】According to the passage, with the help of the “cones”, we can_______________.

A. tell different shapes

B. tell orange from yellow

C. kill mosquitoes

D. see in a weak light

【3】Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?

A. Women are more careful.

B. There are fewer color-blind women

C. None of them can tell the difference between blue and green.

D. Not all of them have the same problem in recognizing color.

32、阅读下列短文，根据其内容写一篇 60 词左右的内容概要。

“Oh my god, buy it!” I believe that you are very familiar with Li Jiaqi’s phrase. Livestreaming marketing is a method of selling products on live video streaming platforms, which now are mainly Taobao, Kuaishou and Tik Tok. On April 1st, 2020, Luo Yonghao finished his first livestreaming marketing on Tik Tok. Data showed that the total amount of payment reached 110 million yuan in 3 hours, which set the record of livestreaming marketing on Tik Tok.

One of the most popular functions of livestreaming is the “real-time connection”. Although traditional television shopping channels also allow viewers to instantly buy recommended items, they don’t allow hosts to respond to real-time comments, nor can television sales data be readily collected to analyze customers’ purchasing behaviours or performance indicators. With this feature, potential customers can get answers to pressing questions and gain a more comprehensive impression of the products, making promotional activities more convincing and effective.

Under the influence of the current epidemic, online shopping reduces direct contact between folks, having a certain guarantee for the health of residents. At the same time, many industries are hit by the epidemic. In this situation, many businessmen walked into the studio with the aim of recovering some of the damage for the business as much as possible.

Meanwhile, the expanding of 5G has created a favorable environment for livestreaming marketing. Supported by the technology of 5G, the image quality of live stream is clearer, so more details can be showed to customers, which helps to provide them an entirely different experience. “With the arrival of the 5G era, livestreaming will be faster, allowing users to zoom in and out of videos to see more details of products. ” said Xuan De, general manager for content e-commerce at Taobao.

Although livestreaming marketing is developing rapidly, the industry gradually becomes a mixed bag. There is no doubt that livestreaming marketing is popular, but eventually, the key to success is high quality of products.
