21、 About two months ago, Xing Yan started experiencing insomnia for the first time.
“It developed suddenly. I was under heavy pressure from work at the time. I could not fall asleep at all at night, and was wide awake until dawn. I tried not to think of the things that were troubling me and forget them, but the thoughts quickly returned, making it even harder for me to fall asleep,” said the bank employee from Fushun, Liaoning province.
Before the insomnia developed, Xing had regularly experienced less serious related disorders, such as taking a long time to fall asleep. He believes his tendency to worry may be the cause of his insomnia.
In addition to feeling tired during the day, Xing feels he is experiencing the physical consequences of insomnia, such as an unexplained stomach ache.
“I became very frightened when I realized I could not sleep every day,” said the 40-year-old, who has been admitted to Peking University Sixth Hospital in Beijing for treatment. “I may be ruined if this situation continues.”
In an attempt to overcome his problem, Xing plans to strictly follow the advice of his doctor, such as getting up and going to bed at fixed times, and taking medication.
Sun Hongqiang, director of the Sleep Medicine Center at the hospital, said his team has seen a constant rise in the number of patients with sleeping disorders in recent years.
Despite seeing about 100 patients every day, the 12 doctors at the center are unable to meet demand, which means many patients endure a long wait before they can consult a physician, according to Sun.
“Globally, the incidence of sleep disorders is rising,” he said. “In China, about 30 percent of the population has sleep disorders, while around 10 percent frequently experience insomnia.”
It is unclear what is behind the rise in the number of people with sleep disorders, but the problem may be linked with factors such as personality, brain-related illnesses and disturbed lifestyles, he added.
【1】What is the meaning of the underlined word “insomnia”?
A.Being unable to sleep.
B.Staying up late.
C.Low sleep quality.
D.Taking a long time to fall asleep.
【2】What’s Xing’s occupation?
A.A doctor.
B.A bank employee.
C.A student from Peking University
D.A physician.
【3】What can be inferred from Sun Hongqiang’s words?
A.About 30% of the Chinese suffer from insomnia.
B.Doctors are too busy to see people with insomnia.
C.Physicians are in high demand in the battle against insomnia.
D.The causes of insomnia include brain-related illnesses and disturbed lifestyles.
【4】What can be the best title of the passage?
A.Insomnia — A terrible disease
B.Insomnia — An increasing incident
C.Doctors — In great demand
D.Sleep disorder — A constant phenomenon
22、 TOKYO (Reuters) Young women in colourful traditional costumes, masks and white stoles braved cold weather in lines and sat seats apart from one another in Yokohama on January 11, to mark Japan’s Coming of Age Day, even though the city is under a state of emergency.
The ceremonies, typically full of kimono-clad women and smartly-dressed men, were cancelled in many cities and parties were discouraged to stop a rise in COVID-19 infections (感染).
On the second Monday in January every year, people who have turned or are about to turn 20 take part in ceremonies in local event halls or other similar places to celebrate the rite(仪式) of passage to adulthood.
The occasion, which is observed with a national holiday, serves in effect as class reunions for some teens and represents one of the major milestones for parents.
“I came as I’ve got my kimono ready and am taking steps to prevent infection. I’m not that worried," Mei Ohno, a college student, told the reporter at Yokohama Arena.
“I’ve just met my old friends after a long time. I’m having a good time. After the ceremony, I’ll take photos with my friends at the station, and then go straight home.”
Of Tokyo’s 23 regions, all but one have cancelled or put off the ceremonies. Instead, mayors’ congratulatory remarks will be offered online. The government last week declared a state of emergency for the capital and three surrounding areas.
Yokohama city, south of Tokyo, went ahead with celebrations at Pacifico Yokohama North convention hall and Yokohama Arena event hall.
“I decided to carry out today’s ceremonies as I strongly hoped everyone takes part in celebrating this once-in-a-lifetime milestone,” said the mayor(市长), in a message read out to attendees who had to take measures to keep themselves from the infection of COVID-19.
Participants wore face masks, had their temperature checks and were asked just to listen to the national anthem, instead of singing it out loud.
【1】When do Japanese celebrate Coming of Age Day?
A．When they are 18 years old.
B．On January 11th every year.

【2】Which of the following is this passage probably taken from?
A．A biography.
B．A news report.
C．A travel journal.
D．A personal letter.
【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．You don’t have to wear face masks when attending the ceremony.
B．Women celebrating the Coming of Age Day wear modern clothing.
C．There was no Coming of Age Day Ceremony in Tokyo this year.
D．The majority of mayors spoke online to offer congratulations.
【4】The underlined word cancelled probably means ________.
A．stopped
B．started
C．held
D．happened
【5】Which of the following could be the best title of the text?
A．Celebrating Coming of Age Day is a milestone

23、 What if I told you there was something that would have an immediate and positive benefit for your brain? Would you do it? Yes!
【1】Simply moving your body has immediate, long-lasting and protective benefits for your brain. There are two key areas in our brains- prefrontal cortex（前额皮质）important for attention and hippocampus（海马结构）for long-term memories. I went to the documentary to find the effects of exercise on the brain- better feeling, better energy, better memory and better attention. Now I’ve come to a conclusion that exercise is the amazing thing. 【2】
First of all, it has immediate effects on your brain. A single workout immediately increase levels of dopamine（多巴胺）. That is going to increase your feelings right after that workout.
What’s more, after long-term exercise, you not only get better focus and attention, but the volume of the hippocampus increases as well.【3】So you get long-lasting increases in dopamine.
Last, the amazing thing that exercise will do is its protective effects on your brain.【4】The more you’re working out, the bigger and stronger your muscle becomes. So do your hippocampus and prefrontal cortex.
Bringing exercise in your life will not just give you a happier, more protective life today.【5】And in this way it will change the path of your life for the better.
A.Here you can think about the brain like a muscle.
B.It will also protect your brain from severe diseases.
C.So I've gone from memory pioneer to exercise explorer.
D.I am talking about the powerful effects of physical activity.
E.A single workout can improve your ability to focus attention.
F.You can do it for your brain today for the following three reasons.
G.You get immediate effects of feelings and those last for a long time.
24、Dear students and employees(员工) of RWTH,
Based on recent decisions by the state government on Covid-19 lockdown( 封 城 ), the Management Committee of RWTH have decided on the following measures:

If employees have questions about the organization of working hours and childcare, the human resources departments will be happy to help. The state government has also said it will provide help for this group of employees.
