26、People often discuss the dangers of too much stress (压力), but lately a very different view of stress is gaining popularity: this view of stress, held by members of the positive stress movement, argues that stress might actually be beneficial. The positive stress movement is made up of people such as Zachary Rapp who are looking for an edge in a competitive world, and Rapp’s routine is a good example of followers of the movement. He wakes up most mornings at dawn, goes for a run, sips black coffee while ripping through emails, and then steps into a freezing cold shower. This is a routine designed to reduce the stress of running simultaneously (同步地) three different health and biotechnology companies for 18 hours a day.
Although Rapp’s practices may sound extreme, he is part of a growing movement,consisting largely of tech industry workers who claim that such extreme strategies (策略) will help them live better and longer. Inspired by influential figures in different fields, including entertainers, athletes and scientists, positive stress practitioners seek out some combination of extreme temperatures, restrictive (限制性的) diets, punishing exercise routines and general discomfort.
Rapp argues that positive stress keeps him balanced. In addition to running and freezing showers, Rapp uses ice baths, hot yoga, and unconventional eating practices such as eliminating dairy (奶制品), sugar, alcohol and various other foods high in carbohydrates (碳水化合物). He believes that these practices which put stress on his body, actually make him feel less stress from work. Rapp said he started using these methods in college where he got into the habit of taking ice baths to recover from sports. He got back into it while trying to get his three companies off the ground.
Rapp works long hours and sleeps only five to seven hours a night but he said he only gets sick once a year. For him, the difference between day-to-day stress, like the kind we feel when moving apartments, and positive stress is that the latter involves pushing the body to extremes and forcing it to build up a tolerance.
But it is important to note that not everyone agrees with these practitioners; indeed, some medical professionals argue that positive stress is not for everyone, and that it might even be dangerous for people who are unhealthy or older.
【1】What do we learn about followers of the positive stress movement?
A．They are usually quite sensitive to different types of stress.
B．They hold a different view on stress from the popular one.
C．They obtain much pleasure from living a very stressful life.
D．They gain a competitive edge by enjoying good health.
【2】What do followers of the positive stress movement usually do to put their ideas into practice?
A．They keep changing their living habits.
B．They network with influential figures.
C．They seek jobs in tech industries.
D．They apply extreme strategies.
【3】What does the underlined word in the third paragraph mean?
A．Removing.
B．Hating.
C．Drinking.
D．Choosing.
【4】What do some medical professionals think of positive stress?
A．Its true effect remains to be checked.
B．It is absolutely beneficial to everyone.
C．Its effect varies from person to person.
D．It is extremely dangerous for everyone.
27、 As traditional Chinese art, paper cutting has a long history. The first and earliest paper cutting was found in China 1,500 years ago. But this traditional art is at risk of disappearing now. Luckily, Vivian Woo, a Chinese immigrant in America, is trying to bring this art back to life.
One Saturday in 2017, Ms.Woo held a paper cutting show at a shopping center near Washington. She got much fun and peace doing it. She hoped more people would enjoy it. Ms. Woo began to study the art of paper when she was a 14-year-old girl in her hometown in China. She said all the students at school had to learn paper cutting. But she had a deep love for it. So her teacher spent more time teaching her after class.Later, she won the second prize in a national painting and art competition. Ms.Woo went to America after she finished college in 2008．Soon after that, she took part in an activity to promote Chinese paper cutting. And then she was invited to show the art in many important activities. “It is important to promote this art to Americans or anyone who is interested in it. Maybe it will make this art more popular.” Woo said.
From the art of paper cutting, people can know about Chinese cultural values, history and stories of people. Ms.Woo uses the art as a tool to show Chinese culture to people who know little about it. Chinese art is not only for Chinese, but also for people all over the world.

28、Senses That Work Together
When we think about how our senses work, we usually imagine them operating separately: you sniff a flower, and the smell is delivered uninterrupted from nose to brain. However, it's more complex than that. Most evidence for cross modal perception (知觉) comes from studies into sound and vision (视觉). But research that shows other senses crossing over is coming out all the time, and it seems that even sound and smell sometimes form an unlikely pairing.
When New York researchers, Daniel Wesson and Donald Wilson, tried to find out the truth about a "mysterious” area of the brain called the olfactory tubercle, they had to deal with this fact. Originally, they only intended to measure how olfactory tubercle cells in mice responded to smell. But during testing, Wesson noticed that every time he put his coffee cup down, the mouse cells jumped in activity. In fact, the olfactory tubercle is well-placed to receive both smell and sound information from the outside world. Later they found that among separate cells, most responded to a smell but a significant number were also active when a sound was made. Some cells even behaved differently when smell and sound were presented together, by increasing or decreasing their activity.
Of course, mice aren't people, so research team has been carrying out further experiments. They pulled together a group of people and gave them various drinks to smell. Participants were asked to sniff the drinks, and then match them to appropriate musical instruments and produce the notes at different levels. The results were interesting: piano was regularly paired with fruity fragrances; strong smells sounded like the instruments that are made of metal.
Further research found that listening to different sounds can change your perceptions. Studying taste this time, the team ordered some special toffee (太妃糖) and put together “soundscapes” corresponding to bitterness and sweetness. Participants tasted similar pieces of toffee while listening to each soundscape, and found the toffee more bitter or sweeter, depending on which soundrack they were listening to.
Studies like this are helping scientists correctly describe our understanding of the senses, and how the brain combines them with its advantage. The consequences are worth considering. Could we see musicians work together with chefs to produce sound-improved food and drink? Will you be ordering a coffee with a soundrack to bring out your favorite smell? Come to think of it, that could be one thing you hope coffee shop chains don’t get round to.
【1】What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. A lot of research focuses on the senses.
B. There can be a link between sound and smell.
C. Sound and vision are relatively easy to study.
D. Evidence about the way senses work is hard to obtain.
【2】In Wesson and Wilson's research,__________.
A. the mice were affected more significantly by sound
B. the result confirmed what the researchers had suspected
C. the connection between sound and smell was found by chance
D. the mice seemed to be afraid of certain sounds or smells
【3】What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A. Participants took an active part in the experiments.
B. The purpose of the further experiments was totally different.
C. The result failed to support what was found in previous experiments.
D. Experiments showed that links between sound and smell were consistent.
【4】How does the author feel about the effect of the research?
A. She is surprised at the recent developments.
B. She is excited about the creative chances.
C. She is convinced that the findings will be used soon.
D. She is worried about how the knowledge can be applied.
29、Chinese students always complain that they’re under great pressure and don’t get enough sleep. But they may be surprised to learn that they’re much luckier than their peers (同龄人) in South Korea and Japan, according to a recently published report, conducted by Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences on the physical and mental health of senior high school students in the three Asian countries.
According to the study among nearly 6,000 high school students in the three countries, Chinese students are the tallest but poorest in physical fitness. Chinese students are on average 168.17cm, compared with 167.61cm for South Korean students and 164.70cm for Japanese students. Chinese students asked for sick leave more than students in other countries. About 72 percent of Korean students never asked for sick and injury leave during high school, compared to 53 percent for Japanese students and 45 percent for Chinese students. Moreover, Chinese students drink alcohol and smoke earlier than Korean and Japanese students. Around 70 percent of Chinese students have drunk alcohol, compared to 50 percent for Korean and Japanese students.
According to the survey, Japanese and South Korean students suffer more pressure than their Chinese peers. Statistics (统计) show 16 percent of students in China said they experienced mental pressure often over the past year, while the numbers in Japan and South Korea were 33 percent and 47 percent respectively. Their worries come from “study”, “future after graduation”, “friendships” and “relationship with their parents”. To go with stress, 57.9 percent of Korean students sleep the least, less than six hours a day, compared with 46.6 percent of Japanese students and 30 percent of Chinese students.
More Chinese students were satisfied with their physical appearance, double that of students in the survey from Japan and South Korea. The report said that over half of students in South Korea had tried to lose weight in the past year, while in China the figure was only 22 percent.
In measures of self-worth, such as “I think I am valuable” and “I think I am successful”, “I can complete many things”, “I won’t give up to failure,” Chinese students showed greater self-confidence than students in Japan and South Korea.
【1】What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Chinese students always complain that they’re in bad condition.
B. Chinese students are much luckier than their peers in the Republic of Korea and Japan.
C. Chinese teenagers drink alcohol and smoke earliest and smoke earliest among the three countries.
D. There is a report on the physical and mental health of senior high school students.
【2】What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. the height B. the percentage
C. the weight D. the number
【3】The worries that cause students to be stressed come from the following factors EXCEPT _______.

31、
Two years ago, when Jordie Rowland came into the barbershop the first time, it was a “disaster”, 【1】 Lisa Ann McKenzie recalls. The little boy struggled with his parents to run outside the moment he got in the shop. McKenzie ended up walking around the barbershop with Jordie that day, even 【2】 on the floor with him. She finally got in a few quick cuts, but stopped when she saw that Jordie was very upset.
The 10-year-old has autism(自闭症). Even a simple haircut can be painful and 【3】 for some autistic children, Jordie was no different.
McKenzie felt that she’d failed, but it also made her want to do better, “I wanted to learn more about autism so I could 【4】 with him and take away his fear,” says the barber.
After the first unsuccessful haircut, McKenzie suggested to Jordie’s parents that they bring him back every two weeks at 【5】 time. She would cut just a little bit each time, often at no 【6】, and the boy would run around the shop as always. That went on for a few months. McKenzie even went to Jordie’s house to give it a try. No luck.
One day, the 【7】 of the barbershop got mad at McKenzie for allowing a customer to come in after business hours. Frustrated, she left that job. Soon after, she opened her own shop.
Every two weeks, Jordie would come by McKenzie’s shop after it was closed. This 【8】 about eight months.
Then, a few weeks later, they had a breakthrough, McKenzie sang “The Wheels on the Bus” to Jordie. To her surprise, the boy looked at her as if mesmerized(着迷的). Then McKenzie gave him a full haircut for the first time. The moment McKenzie finished her job, she and Jordie’s parents all realized their painfully slow, two-year 【9】 had paid off.
By the time Jordie’s haircut was a success, he was far from her only autistic customer. Word had gotten around town that McKenzie was pretty good with special needs kids. She started cutting the hair of many other “special kids.” She also plans to hold a monthly Sunday set aside only for these beautiful, 【10】 children.
