21、Regarded as one of the English language’s most gifted poets, John Keats wrote poetry that concentrated on imagery, human nature, and philosophy. Although Keats didn’t receive much formal literary education, his own studies and passion brought him much success. Additionally, his own life situation influenced his poetry greatly.
Growing up as a young boy in London in a lower middle-class family, the young John didn’t attend a private school, but went to a public one. His teachers and his family’s friends regarded him as an optimistic boy who favored playing and fighting much more than minding his studies. After his father’s death in the early 1800s, followed by his mother’s passing due to tuberculosis (肺结核), he began viewing life differently. He wanted to escape the world and did so by reading anything he could get his hands on.
At around the age of 16, the teenage John Keats began studying under a surgeon so that he too might become a doctor. However, his literary appetite had taken too much of his fancy, especially with his addiction to the poetry of Ehmund Spenser. He was able to have his first full poem published in the Examiner in 1816, entitled O Solitude! If I Must With Thee Dwell. Within two months in 1817, Keats had written an entire volume of poetry, but was sharply criticized by a magazine. However, the negative response didn’t stop his pursuit of rhythm (韵律).
John Keats’ next work was Endymion, which was published in May 1818. The story involves a shepherd who falls in love with the moon goddess and leads him on an adventure of one boy’s hope to overcome the limitations of being human. Following Endymion, however, he tried something more narrative-based and wrote Isabella. During this time, John Keats began seeing his limitations in poetry due to his own limit in life experiences. He would have to have the “knowledge” associated with his poems. His next work was Hyperion that would attempt to combine all that he learned. However, a bout (发作) with tuberculosis while visiting Italy would keep him from his work and eventually take his life in 1821.
【1】 John Keats’ attitude towards life changed because of _________.
A. his early education from school
B. the deaths of his parents
C. Edmund Spenser’s poetry
D. the criticism of a magazine
【2】 What is the common thing between John Keats and his mother?
A. They died of the same disease.
B. They had a bad childhood
C. They read many books.
D. They showed strong interest in poetry
【3】While pursuing his dream of becoming a poet at first, John Keats was _________.
A. determined B. experienced C. knowledgeable D. impatient
【4】 What do we know from the passage?
A. Keats received little education at school.
B. Keats once had a chance of becoming a doctor.
C. In 1816 Keats spent two months writing a poem.
D. Endymion was about a real love story.
22、 Even for a first-time visitor to China, it is impossible to ignore the popularity of Quick-Response (QR) codes. These square-shaped black-and-white symbols in WeChat or Alipay where QR codes are scanned to add new friends or make payments.
The QR Code system originated in Japan. The engineer Masahiro Hara felt the limitation of the one-dimension barcode in use and thus developed the QR codes which could carry data horizontally and vertically. QR codes could hold much more information than barcode due to their extra dimension. In addition, QR codes have larger data capacity, smaller print—out size and higher resistance to dirt and damage, which make them widely applied in many other applications.
Though the technology of QR codes is complicated, we can easily create our own QR codes with the help of QR code generators, many of which are available online for free. Users could enter the data they wish the QR code to display, and the generator turns it into a symbol that can be printed or displayed in electronic form. The process of creating QR codes could be really fun when we customise the design of the codes according to our specific needs. For instance, we can adjust the color, add a logo, and create social options etc. Moreover, dynamic (动态的) QR codes are also available. They are more various than standard QR codes because they allow users to edit data entered previously whereas data in standard QR codes cannot be edited once printed. Plus, don’t limit your QR code to one mobile scanner. Anyone can scan your code with any reader. A lower barrier to entry makes success more likely for you and the user.
Meanwhile, we must also recognize the vulnerability of QR codes. Due to its easy access, criminals can steal simply by replacing the QR codes with their own, routing cash into their own bank accounts. Hence, we should all become more conscious towards virtual money transactions through QR codes and participate in additional security measures.
【1】Which of the following is NOT a function of QR codes?
A. Data storage.
B. Scanning reader.
C. Social networking.
D. Mobile payment.
【2】Why is barcode mentioned in paragraph 2?
A. To introduce the main topic.
B. To show the author’s attitude.
C. To highlight the features of QR codes.
D. To add some background knowledge.
【3】Which of the following best explains “vulnerability” underlined in paragraph 4?
A. Threat. B. Weakness.
C. Difficulty. D. Simplicity.
【4】Which is true about QR codes according to the text?
A. They were first used in China.
B. The generators charge the users a lot.
C. Data editing is possible in printed QR codes.
D. More scanning devices are available in reading QR codes.
23、Rene Compean was no stranger to Angeles National Forest. He’d hiked the park numerous times. But when hiking along a new path, the 45-year-old was lost.
As the day faded into darkness, his concern turned to fear. With only a little water in his backpack and 10% battery remaining on his cellphone, Compean was unprepared for anything more than the two-hour trip he’d planned.
Compean climbed to a spot where he found one bar of signal. “SOS. My phone is going to die. I’m lost,” he texted a friend, attaching a photo showing where he was. The shot showed his legs hanging over a rock face. All Compean could do then was wait. The temperature was dropping fast. Dressed only in shorts, and a sweatshirt, the hiker was chilled to the bone. He hugged himself into a tight ball. And after spotting two mountain lions, he spent the night on high alert.
Sixty miles away, Ben Kuo was working at home when he read a posting from the police, showing an image of a man’s legs. The search-and-rescue teams had spent the previous night unsuccessfully looking for Compean, so they released the photo, hoping someone might recognize the location.
“I’ve always loved looking for where photos are taken,” Kuo says. He frequently tries to identify where movie scenes or commercials were filmed. He’s often successful. When he saw the image, he automatically pulled up a satellite map on his laptop. “There’s an amazing amount of information you can get from satellites,” he says. The first thing he noticed in Compean’s photo was plenty of greenery. After comparing it to the satellite map, Kuo realized something: “He’s got to be on the south side because there’re not any green valleys on the north side.”
That finding led him to an area that looked like the territory in the image. The final step was cross- referencing the original photo with 3-D images of the area. The locations matched!
After spending 27 hours in the wilderness, Compean was found.
Compean’s story probably would have ended differently had it not been for the man with strong satellite skills and a sharp eye for detail.
【1】What caused Compean to get lost on the hike?
A．The thick forest.
B．The unfamiliar route.
C．The coming of nightfall.
D．Low battery on the phone.
【2】Kuo was able to offer help because of ______.
A．his photo reading ability
B．his sense of responsibility
C．his professional experience
D．his familiarity with the area
【3】What can we learn from this story?
A．One good turn deserves another.
B．Chance favors the prepared mind.
C．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
D．There’s no such thing as useless knowledge.
24、You know exercise is heart smart and good for you. But do you really know how much physical activity you’re getting? Studies show that using a fitness tracker-a device that tracks your movement—can increase your steps per day by more than a mile.
“Fitness trackers are a great tool for heart health,” says cardiologist (心脏病医生) Seth Martin. “Being more active and changing your habits is important but difficult. Tracking likely helps people when combined with a clear goal to shoot for.”
Having an objective daily record can open people’s eyes to how little exercise they’re getting, Martin says, which can recalibrate their mindset (心态) and get motivated. People find ways to incorporate (融入) more activities into their day, walking during meetings, or simply taking the stairs instead of an elevator. “Fitness tracking gives people information and enables them to start making changes for heart health,” Martin says.
Try a few trackers until you find one that’s comfortable for you and your budget. Martin suggests, “Once you’ve made a match, you can try the next steps: Use the tracker consistently every day. Set a goal and then find activities you enjoy that also fit into your daily life and can be sustained over the long term. Finally, encourage friends and family to use trackers as well. It can create a social support network and even foster a sense of competition. Follow these tips, and you’ll be on your way to a healthier lifestyle and a healthier heart.”
So be ready, as doctors learn and introduce even better ways to use these devices. In a randomized clinical trial, Martin and his colleagues tested an automated, real-time, personalized program that sent coaching text messages to cardiology patients based on data from a wearable device paired with their phone. Over the short term, this coaching system helped increase step counts by over a mile a day beyond tracking alone. “I think technology can be a very powerful tool to get people moving more,” says Martin.

【4】What does Martin think of the future of fitness trackers?
