21、You must think a computer is the best thing in the world, right? You must think it works at a super speed and can do everything? Well, it’s not! In fact, the brain is much more powerful than any super computer! Think about when a glass is just about to fall off the table. Your brain controls everything that you need to do to save that glass from falling. First your eyes check out what’s going on, then tell your brain, and your brain decides how quickly you need to react, and then your muscles go into action. That is just from your brain. No computer could ever come close to that!
The brain weighs just 3 pounds, but it controls everything you do from thinking, learning, feeling even to breathing and your heart beating. Even though the brain is just 2% of your body weight, it uses around 20% of all your energy in your body. That is a lot for such a small organ. There are about 100 billion tiny, tiny little cells in your brain. There are so many that it would take you over 3,000 years to count them all!
Your brain stops growing when you’re 18, but it actually keeps on developing and learning new things. So your parents are really super smart! You won’t be able to fool them! Believe it or not, your brain never stops working. Even during sleeping, the brain works for long-term memory establishment. It is realized that the brain is the second organ in the body as the heart that never stops during human lives.
So everyone should be proud of such a gift of nature.
【1】In Paragraph 1, the writer wants to tell us________.
A．eyes and muscles react quickly.

22、 The Little Baby Face Foundation（LBFF）is an NYC-based nonprofit organization with a great deal of controversy. Founded in 2002, it provides free plastic surgery for children born with facial deformities（畸形）. Many teenagers who have been teased for their looks are now applying to have their problem areas “fixed” by LBFF.
Nadia, one 14-year-old teenager, had her face greatly changed in June when she went under the knife. Her classmates had been constantly making fun of her appearance. “They said I have the biggest ears that they’ve ever seen. They called me elephant ears,” Nadia said. Those comments hurt her a lot. She even considered how to end her own life.
But Nadia tried to keep the bullying a secret from her mother, Lynda. Her mother was already dealing with mounting medical bills for her 9-year-old son, Josh, who had a serious brain disease. When her mother did finally find out about the bullying, she was heartbroken.
Nadia decided to end her bullying problems with plastic surgery. Then her mother turned to the LBFF, which accepted Nadia’s application. The surgeries were very painful and it took months for her face to heal, but she did manage to return to school with a new face, a face she was finally proud of.
Nadia’s surgery may have helped her overcome her emotional pain, but should teenagers go to those extremes just because they are being bullied?
Experts warn if the deformities are not really a problem to the child, plastic surgery is not the answer! In fact, when a teen decides to get plastic surgery because he or she is being bullied, it can send the wrong message. By surgically changing the victim of a bully, it is as if you support the bullying and agree the victim is in fact worthy of all those names he or she has been called. It is like saying to teenagers: “Yes, there is something wrong with you, and you should get it fixed!”
【1】What did Nadia think of her school life in the past?
A.Busy. B.Exciting.
C.Miserable. D.Ordinary.
【2】Why did Nadia keep the secret from her mother?
A.Her mother had heart disease. B.She didn’t want to burden her.
C.Her mother was afraid of being bullied. D.She didn’t know how to share it with her.
【3】Why does the author say plastic surgery can send the wrong message?
A.It may let bullies feel they are right. B.It may become popular among teens.
C.It may damage the name of the LBFF. D.It may change victims into bullies.
【4】What would be the best title for the text?
A.Why many teenagers are being teased?
B.Is plastic surgery the answer to bullying?
C.Why surgery helps overcome emotional pain?
D.Should we pay more attention to appearance?
23、It’s hard to imagine any gifts more convenient than online flower delivery. There is no driving to the local florist shop, no waiting on hold, and no searching for a phone number for a flower delivery service in the area you need to send. You simply select the bouquet or arrangement, and enter the delivery and payment information. Besides, many offer additional gifts including gift baskets, chocolates, teddy bears and so on.
Fast Flower Delivery Online
When you buy flowers online, you can get flower delivery just as fast as if you place the order in person or over the phone. If you place your order early in the day with an Internet florist, many of the best can deliver on the same day.
Send Flowers for Less
Customers often find better prices when buying on the Internet, because online flower shops typically have lower prices and more discount deals. These shops have less overhead (运营费用) and costs, so they can pass the savings on to the customer. In addition, you usually get a much better deal, especially at busy holidays such as Valentine’s Day, Easter, Mother’s Day, Christmas, etc.
Spectacular Flower Selection
A typical local flower shop does not have a big selection to choose, and also, when you order flowers over the phone you can’t see what you’ll get. Online flower shops have pictures, and still many have a spectacular selection to choose from. Plus, if one Internet florist doesn’t have what you want, it’ll take just a few seconds to buy flowers online from another florist site.

24、Could you remember what the first thing you do each day? The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is check my phone. And I’ll keep doing that throughout the entire day until I go back to bed. If, like me, a lot of your technology habits are automatic, you may not even be aware of your behavior. 【1】 But with some efforts, you can engage with the digital world in a way that’s appropriate for you. Here’s how to get started:
【2】 Try turning off push notifications and deleting social media apps from your phone to create natural obstacles to access them. Of course sometimes there are people you know you want to keep up with and usually connect with on a particular platform. In this case, let them know how they can stay in touch.
Whatever you do, don’t go to bed with your phone. 【3】 Sleeping without smart phones improves sleep, relationships, focus and well-being, and increases happiness and quality of life. So charging your phone somewhere else could help you experience those benefits.
Get to know yourself again by reinvesting in your hobbies. You can start by shutting down your social media for about a week, and then slowly find your favorite apps one at a time over the following weeks. This will help you figure out which apps are contributing to your life and which aren’t. Make a list of activities you enjoy and people you like hanging out with. 【4】
The goal with digital minimalism isn’t to figure out how to live without social media or the Internet. 【5】 Technology should enhance your life, not distract you from it.
A．Set some basic boundaries.
B．It can be difficult to change.
C．It gives you an opportunity to grow in ways.
D．Ask yourself how you feel when you’re using social media.
E．When you feel the urge to grab your phone, try one of those hobbies.
F．It’s not ideal to put your phone next to the pillow to charge when sleeping.
G．In a word, you should be intentional about when and how we use social media.
25、I started collecting shopping lists around 1997. One day, I was shopping for my daughter’s birthday party in St Louis, Missouri, where we lived. After leaving the store, I_________ a yellow note in the parking lot. I picked it up and it was somebody’s shopping list. I thought, “That’s interesting. Well, whenever I see one, I will _________ it.”
People collect all sorts of things you would never _________ . It’s as if all these _________, unimportant things, when put together as a collection, suddenly become meaningful. The first list I found was nothing special. But after you see a lot of them, the odd ones_________. One says at the bottom: “NO MORE CHIPS, JESSICA.” Another one I found is a long _________ of stuff and then, in the margin (空白处), someone had written: “If you dare to_______ any more rice, I’ll hit you.”
The shopping list_________started slowly. At first it was just me and people I knew who would_______ lists for me. Then at the beginning of the 2000s, I put it online and I started receiving lists from everywhere in the world. It seemed there was a(an)__________supply (供应).
In 2012, I was__________ by a publisher who wanted to turn my collection into a book. Then I started going through all my lists,__________ ways to sort and explain them.
