26、One night at the kitchen table a few years ago, my oldest son asked me for homework help. But when I took a look at his assignment, I realized I had no idea how to help him. He was taking computer science (CS) at his high school, and I had zero knowledge of this subject that experts call as important as reading, writing and math.
In fact, the headmaster at the high school where I teach business education had asked me to learn how to teach CS several times before, but I always said no. After all, I have three teenage sons and a lot on my plate already. I thought I had no time to go back to school and learn a new subject.
But that night when I was unable to help my son, I began to question my resistance (抗拒). I later sat in on his CS class, which was taught by a teacher trained by TEALS (Technology Education and Literacy in Schools). She hadn’t had CS experience before, but she sure seemed like she knew what she was doing!
So I decided to jump in with the support of TEALS. I wanted to give my students at Chelan High School the chance to learn CS. I took a TEALS training course before I started teaching. My sons also sat next to me as I tried out assignments, and they guided me when I got stuck. Finally, with the help of industry experts who made conference calls (电话会议) in my class, I felt like I could become a CS teacher.
I wasn’t shy about not being an expert. I told my students, “I’m learning alongside you. I don’t always have the answers, but we can find them out together.” And honestly, they teach me as much as I teach them! They encourage me, too. They egg me on to be more creative. They push me to keep learning, and keep trying because I have to keep up with them!

27、 More Americans say they are on a special diet compared with Americans about 10 years ago. The increased dieting comes at a time when obesity levels continue to rise. 17 percent of Americans said they were on a diet in 2017 — up from 14 percent about 10 years earlier. Over the same period, obesity levels increased in the U.S. to 42 percent — up from 34 percent.
About half of American adults have diet-related health problems, such as diabetes and heart disease. Overall, more women reported being on a diet than men. The heavier and more educated people were, the more likely they were to report being on a special diet.
Between 2007 and 2017, diets described as “weight loss or low calorie” grew in popularity. Low-carbohydrate diets became more popular, while low-fat and low-cholesterol diets became less popular.
The findings were part of an ongoing national survey. People who took part in the survey were asked the following question: “Are you currently on any kind of diet, either to lose weight or for some other health-related reasons?”
Becky Ramsing is a dietician and program officer at Johns Hopkins Center for a Livable Future. Ramsing said that people made very different kinds of choices in the hopes of losing weight. In some cases, she said people might not understand why the choices they made could not help them lose weight. “They won't eat bread, but then they' eat a lot of other things that are higher in calories,” she said.
Ramsing added that many American diet trends banned some foods. But to make lasting changes, she said people should consider their eating overall. “That will help them deal with another problem of diets,” she noted. “Diets are hard to continue doing over time.”
【1】What can we learn about according to Paragraph 1?
A．The popularity of dieting in America.
B．The sharp rise in obesity worldwide.
C．The potential benefits of a special diet.
D．Traditional eating habits of Americans.
【2】Why did people fail to lose weight by dieting according to Ramsing?
A．They ignored experts’ advice on nutrition.
B．They were misled into making wrong choices.
C．They forgot their initial goals of losing weight.
D．They failed to have a healthy and balanced diet.
【3】What does Ramsing think of sticking to a long-term diet?
A．Wrong.
B．Simple.
C．Difficult.
D．Effective.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A．Americans’ Myths About Special Dieting.
B．A Serious Obesity 'Trend in the United States.
C．More Americans on a Special Diet for Health Reasons.
D．Americans’ Diet-related Health Problems about Obesity.
28、VR is like something simply wear a headset and open your eyes in a completely different world, without having to leave the one you’re in. It’s great for gamers and fun for thrill-seekers, but honestly I think VR’s real potential lies in travel.
From holiday inspiration to making a booking, the future of travel ties firmly online. But I’ve spotted a trend: We don’t simply base our bookings on great deals any more. While at Expedia—an online traveling company, I’ve noticed that more and more holidaymakers want to guarantee they’ll be getting an authentic (真实的) experience: local produce, authentic dig sand adventures they’ll never forget.
Picture the scene: I can wear a headset and stand on top of Iceland’s Gulfoss waterfall, or, perhaps, Peru’s Machu Picchu. I could even find myself wandering the busy streets of an Asian city, where the tourist industry may or may not have taken away some of the local charm. VR has the potential to attract potential travelers with style and substance, offering true-to-life expectations and matching wearers to their ideal experience.
If you’ re sick of spending hours searching the Internet for your dream hotel, then don’t worry. Booking bot, an app, does all the hard work. I begin a message to Expedia with a friendly ”Hi“, input where I’d like to go, when and for how long, and in seconds, I’ll be shown the best deals. There’s little annoyance and I could be making a cup of tea in the time it takes to chat.
With the unavoidable airport check-in experience complicated, making it easy will be key in the future. Some experts are even going so far as to predict the fall of human interaction-front desk staff replaced by holograms (全息图), waiting staff exchanged for robots and smartphone apps.
I haven’t only seen VR making waves: AR is coming to the front as a holiday must-have, too. Travel is changing, and the future may not be as far away as we’d first thought.
【1】Who does the author think will enjoy the real potential of VR?
A．Travelers.
B．Moviegoers.

B．They guarantee their traveling online.
C．They base their booking on great deals.
D．They use VR to get an authentic experience.

A．Smartphone apps make humans interact effectively.
B．Robots are used for travelers to check in at the airport.
C．Travelers can use the Internet to get travel information.
D．Booking bot and other apps promise a new age of convenience.
【4】Where is the text most likely from?

29、We’re shopping online more than ever now, including various personal care and food items. Of U.S. Internet users, one-third do it at least once a week. Seeing your limited toilet paper (TP), you might pull up your smartphone and after a few taps have a fresh order of TP set to arrive in a day, maybe even less, and all done right from the toilet seat.
But this type of shopping — numerous small, quick-to-ship orders placed through e-tailing companies like Amazon — might be the worst for the environment, according to a recent study in Environmental Science & Technology. With their current business model of free shipping and fast delivery, greenhouse gas emissions linked with transporting “fast consumer goods” are high. “The online-only retailers are growing rapidly,” says lead author Sadegh, a scientist at Radboud University in the Netherlands.
Previous analyses haven’t agreed on whether online or in-store shopping is better. In fact, some studies have found that online shopping has a lower impact, because it saves the emissions associated with driving your car to the store (95 percent of Americans drive to go shopping). But this benefit can vary, or even disappear, depending on how fast we want that TP to arrive. And if you’re shopping in real life, factors like how you transport those items, how far you travel, and how much you buy at once all affect the carbon footprint of your purchase. “There have been some contradicting results, with some saying online shopping is better and some saying traditional shopping is better,” says Sadegh. So he tried to settle the debate with an approach that showed how likely one option was to be better than the other.
Sadegh and his team compared three shopping styles: traditional in-store shopping, online ordering from a physical store (which they called “bricks and clicks”), and ordering through an online-only retailer. Nearly two-thirds of the time, bricks and clicks shopping resulted in fewer emissions per item than in-store shopping — and was better than online shopping 97 percent of the time. In-store shopping had fewer emissions than online — only 81percent of the time.
【1】Why was “ordering TP on the smartphone” mentioned in paragraph 1?
A．To state convenience of TV shopping.
B．To show importance of smartphones.
C．To encourage people to purchase TP online.
D．To stress people’s frequency of online shopping.
【2】How does online shopping harm the environment?
A．It requires more energy to produce these products.
B．Its current business model generates more greenhouse gas.
C．It causes people not to care much about the environment.
D．Its packaging of goods produces numerous harmful waste.
【3】Which way of shopping is more environmentally friendly?
A．Traditional in-store shopping.
B．Online ordering from a physical store.
C．Ordering through an online-only store.
D．Driving to shop in huge supermarkets.
【4】How does Sadegh come to his conclusion?
A．By analyzing causes.
B．By listing theories.
C．By making comparison.
D．By giving examples.

32、阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
“A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can get its boots on.” This quote is from Mark Twain. In today’s Internet world of “fake news”, lies spread even faster and the truth is having trouble finding its boots.
To make matters worse, most young people get news from special media sites where facts are mixed with rumors, half-truths and complete lies. This has led to young people becoming confused. In the latest PISA(Programme For International Student Assessment), which tested 15-year-olds worldwide on academic subjects, fewer than one in ten of the participants were reported to be able to tell fact from opinion. A Stanford University study showed that students at all levels of education could not tell real news from fake news. In one instance, 80 percent thought that apaid advertisement was a real news story.
Fake news is spread by people who have a prejudice. They want to influence public opinion either for or against something or someone. It is important, then, for young people to recognize when they are being used and to be skeptical of online information.
Traditional media, such as newspapers and television, are still the more reliable sources of information. Reporters are professionally trained to look for facts, and editors have the job of making sure those facts are correct. However, if you are getting most of your information online, you have to be your own editor. In that case, the first thing to do is to look at the writer of a post. Is this person known to be credible? Does the site where you read the post have a prejudice? Next, look for other sources from mainstream media to confirm the information. In other words, by putting on your truth boots you won’t be fooled into chasing lies.
