27、We thought we had it all—a beautiful house, three healthy children and one more on the way, two cars ---- and we loved it. We spent money like it was going out of style. Then, the market turned and my husband’s job as a bigwig(大人物) at a construction company was gone. The company was closing down for ever.
We both started looking for jobs right away, but there weren’t any to be found. With each passing day our panic increased and we continued to work together in order to pull our family through. The more we pulled together, the closer we got. I felt feelings of great love for my husband that I hadn’t felt in years.①
That’s why it was so hard for me to watch him blame himself for our present situation. I knew that he had no control over the economy, however, he constantly degraded (降低…身份)himself and his spirit sunk lower with each unkind comment. I continually asked him to stop, but he seemed to want to punish himself for not having a job.②
Finally one afternoon I pulled him aside and said, “We have four healthy children. That’s what’s important. That makes you a rich man.”
“But what if we lose the house? They’ll hate me—you’ll hate me.” he replied.
I smiled at him and put my hands on both sides of his face to make him look me in the eye.③
“If we live in a cardboard box on the empty place across the street I will be happy—as long as I have you.” I smiled again as I realized that I wasn’t saying it. Somehow, in all the struggling together I had found that deep love for him that I had on the day we said “I do.”
I could see relief wash through him as his shoulders and neck relaxed and the tension left his body. He held me close and we were able to talk and plan and dream together in a way that we hadn’t in quite some time. ④
We are still struggling financially, but I consider us well-off because we have something that money can’t buy and no one can take away from us.
【1】In the wife’s opinion, what is important in her family?
A. A beautiful house B. Healthy children
C. Expensive cars D. Desirable jobs
【2】 Which of the following agrees with the passage?
A. The husband has found his jobs.
B. The family has lost their house.
C. The family has four children.
D. They live in a cardboard box.
【3】Which is NOT the effect of the financial crisis towards the family?
A. They spent money like it was going out of style.
B. the husband wasn’t a bigwig in the company any more.
C. The wife felt feelings of love for my husband.
D. They realized there is something that money can’t buy between them.
【4】Where can we put the missing sentence “It was a turning point for us as a couple and a family.”？
A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④
28、The social media platform Instagram once made headlines for limiting likes in an effort to reduce the comparisons and hurt feelings resulting from attaching popularity to sharing content. 【1】
A psychologist, Jacqueline Sperling, who works with youth who experience anxiety disorders says, “ 【2】 Even if you remove the likes, there continue to be opportunities for comparisons and feedback. People still can compare themselves to others, and people still can post comments.”
Social platforms are designed to be addictive and are related to anxiety, depression, and even physical ailments (小病). According to the Pew Research Centre, 69% of adults and 81% of teens in the U. S. use social media. 【3】 But what makes users come back for more even when it can literally make them feel sick?
“Think of a slot machine (老虎机): if game players knew they were never going to get money by playing the game, then they never would play. The idea of a potential future reward keeps the machines in use. 【4】” Says Sperling. To boost self-esteem and feel a sense of belonging in their social circles, people post content with the hope of receiving positive feedback.
【5】 Teenagers hope to keep track of friends’ activities. If everyone else is using social media sites, and if you don’t join in, there is concern that you’ll miss chats, jokes, connections, or invitations, which can make them anxious and depressed. When people look online and see they’re excluded from an activity, it can affect thoughts and feelings, and can affect them physically.
A．Missing experiences can create anxiety and depression.
B．This makes them feel anxious, depressed, or ill over their social media use.
C．Social media use can affect users’ physical health even more directly.
D．The same goes for social media sites.
E．Fear of missing out also impacts the youth greatly.
F．It’s a small step in the right direction.
G．But does the effort battle against mental health issues?
29、 When I was a child, I attained high grades in my academic study. However, I was physically uncoordinated because I was running too slowly. But for future college application, sport was a must. So I took up fencing (击剑) because I thought it required more strategy than athletic ability.
Then I joined the school’s fencing team. My movements were clumsy compared to the seniors. One afternoon after a whole lesson’s failure, tears of frustration welled up in my eyes. One of my teammates approached me, “Could you tell me where your blade (剑) hit me?” She asked. I pointed to her right shoulder. She nodded and patted my stomach, “That’s where I hit you.” She had begun to walk away when I blurted out, “Want to practice together? Again?”
We practiced until we both felt more confident. But it wasn’t just the two of us. All these girls were entirely willing to share their knowledge with everyone, helping each other to grow.
That afternoon, I watched a senior fencer execute a flawless attack admiringly. Something inside me suddenly bloomed. I realized later that it was love for both fencing and the fencing team.
During the city championship, I was selected to fence. My opponent was the best fencer on her school’s team. “Ready, fence.” The match began. Suddenly, my opponent’s blade hit me. The score was 1-0.
At the moment I could hear my teammates shouting, “Keep distance!” And the team captain’s voice was clear and commanding, “Parry, then disengage!”
Fencing, unlike academics, wasn’t something I could succeed in by myself—even during an individual match, my teammates were still giving me advice. Unathletic as I was, I was proud to be an athlete and a teammate.
I saw my blade tip bury itself into my opponent’s shoulder and the judge signaling that it was my point. I could taste the sweat on my lips, which were breaking out into a smile.

【2】How did the girls improve their fencing skills?
A．By observing flawless attacks.
B．By practicing on their own.
