26、Making Short Videos
“A picture is worth a thousand words or so”, they say. Well, motion (运动) pictures can contain even more memories. 【1】Here are some apps you can use to make your own short videos.
Qupeiyin.cn
Reciting lines from movies is an effective and classic way to learn English. So what if you could dub(配音) recordings accompanied by movie clips(剪辑) and then share them with friends? 【2】You name it. By contributing your voice, you can either mimic(模仿) the original soundtrack or create something completely new of your own.
Shorts
【3】With the help of the Shorts app, you can make pictures in your album into a slide show. Choose from any of the off-the-shelf themes---“holiday”, “travel”, “friendship” and “party” for example—each matched with its own theme music and slide background. But if you’re not satisfied with the combinations, feel free to do a little change by adding text to the pictures or replacing the music with something in your own playlist.
Viva Video
Video making and editing once seemed awfully hard.【4】But this app will ease you into the field with straight-forward functions and clear direction to help you “create your own video story”. Apart from filter, stickers and text, the coolest part of this app is that you can write the narratives yourself and add your own voice to the video.【5】Viva Video requires a relatively powerful phone to run smoothly.
A．But here is a little reminder.
B．This app has movies, cartoons, lectures, TV series.
C．These apps have a variety of identifications (识别).
D．That’s why short videos are becoming popular.
E．Videos and pictures aren’t only for separate purposes.
F．Newbies (网络新手) and amateurs didn’t dare to even give it a try.
G．Video making and editing is what Apple fans want to try.
27、 The baobab tree is sometimes called “the Tree of Life." Baobabs grow in Africa and Australia. They are the most famous trees in Africa. Baobabs have very thick, wide trunks （树干）.Often the trunks have large empty spaces inside.
In South Africa, one famous tree had a hole so large that someone built a bar inside it. People could sit inside and order drinks. That tree was known as the Sunland Baobab. It was more than 1,000 years old. It was the biggest baobab in Africa. But in 2017 it fell down. In 2016, another famous baobab fell down and died. It was called the Chapman tree in Botswana.
A recent study shows that the problem is widespread. Adrian Patrut and his team started studying the baobabs in 2005.The team found bad news. In the past 12 years, “nine of the thirteen oldest and five of the six largest have died,” the report found. Sometimes parts of the tree didn't die. But the “oldest parts” did.
Experts aren't sure what is causing the baobabs to die. They think it may be related to climate change. But more research is needed to prove it.
The largest trees need more water and food than smaller baobabs. Patrut thinks that is what puts them at greater danger. More heat and less rainfall could have a big influence on the trees.
In Zimbabwe a fungus（真菌）turns baobabs black before they die. But Patrut's study didn't find signs of a widespread disease. No matter the cause, the loss is huge.
Baobabs are amazing. They are a major food source for people. The trees grow white flowers that open at night. Bats spread the pollen（花粉）and help the trees grow fruit. Their white fruit is called monkey bread. People use it as food and to make cool drinks. People make paper, cloth, and even drugs from baobab bark（树皮）.
【1】What do we know about the Sunland Baobab?
A.It was the biggest baobab in Australia.
B.It was the oldest tree in the world.
C.It fell down in 2016 in Botswana.
D.It once had a bar inside it
【2】What did Patrut's study find?
A.More baobabs are dying,
B.Old baobabs are going to disappear.
C.Trees worldwide have common problems.
D.Trees' living environment is getting worse.
【3】As for what's killing baobabs, experts ______
A.are certain human activities put them in danger
B.are sure it is because of climate change
C.have proved disease is the main cause
D.need to carry out more studies
【4】What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A.The great uses of baobab trees
B.The danger of losing baobab trees.
C.How baobab trees help other plants
D.The importance of protecting the environment.
28、 A few months after Wu Xingu was congratulated by teachers for graduating from the university, the 23-year-old has been making his dream of relieving tens of thousands of teachers in China from drowning in marking papers(改卷) a reality.
Yitiku, an online software system based on Wu’s idea, eases the workload of teachers by doing many of the functions that they did, such as selecting the test questions, forming an exam paper, and preparing exercises for the students.
The features of Yitiku may sound quite simple, but this idea won his company millions of dollars from China’s Internet giant Tencent in January. The unexpectedly successful fund raising story became a popular conversation starter among the people in the education business.
“I can say it’s quite an achievement for me and our company. As far as I know, I’m the first CEO born after 1990s that Tencent has invested (投资) in, and we are the first online education company they have invested in.” Wu Xingyu told China Daily.
Different from other online companies that treat students as clients (客户), Yitiku has chosen teachers as their focus. “ We make the work of teachers easy. Usually it takes two to three hours for them to prepare a new exam paper. Now it’s just three clicks.” said Wu. He is quite satisfied with the major feature of the software.
Sitting in his 10-square-meter office in Zhonguancun, a hub of innovation (创新) in Beijing, Wu looks confident and chatty when talking about his business. His fast-speed answers give people an impression that he has years of experience in the online education sector. The fact is that he had been putting most of attention in directing courses at an art college until about a year ago.
【1】The best title for this passage might be .
A. 23-year-old wants to ease workload of teachers B. the achievement made by a boy born after 1990s
C. Yitiku, an online software system loved by teachers D. A 23-year-old surprises the China’s Internet giant
【2】Yitiku has the following function EXCEPT .
A. designing test papers B. choosing the test questions
C. teaching the students D. grading papers
【3】The underlined word “hub” in the last paragraph means .
A. special center B. small house
C. big market D. supermarket
【4】What will be continued after the last paragraph?
A. Wu’s family background B. how Wu got the great idea
C. what Wu studied in an art college D. Wu’s experience in directing courses
29、 As the novel coronavirus outbreak interrupts businesses and everyday life for billions around the globe, massive conferences have moved online. The new form creates numerous technical and organizational challenges, but it also offers opportunities-for reaching wider audiences, reducing the carbon footprint of meeting travel and improving diversity. For some meetings, the switch may be lasting.
The scientific community is “ making lemonade out of lemons,” an expert says. “ Scientists are making use of a situation that’s really quite horrible and providing people a way to connect.”
In many ways, virtual conferences offer a better experience, says Altman, associate director of the Stanford Institute for AI. Altman’s institute had planned an inperson conference in April, but COVID-19 forced organizers to change it. They threw together a virtual conference to discuss how AI can help scientists fight the ongoing pandemic (流行病).The event was a great success. The original conference would have drawn a few hundred attendees, but 30,000 people watched the online version.
Altman says the virtual environment allowed hosts to better control the flow of discussion and questions from the audience. By privately messaging one another behind the scenes, they were able to make adjustments (调整).During the audience question period, the hosts didn’t open up the virtual floor for anyone to speak. Instead, they asked the audience to type their questions and screen the most insightful (有深刻见解的)ones.
Scientists acknowledge that virtual conferences can’t completely replace the conference experience. Virtual meetings might lose some of their appeal once stay-at-home requirements loosen. Even so, the success of some scientists further strengthens the society’s march toward virtual meetings.
【1】What does the underlined phrase “ making lemonade out of lemons” refer to?
A.Working tirelessly to fight the pandemic.
B.Taking advantage of the difficult situation.
C.Doing research on how to make lemonade.
D.Committing themselves to their conferences.
【2】What could prove the virtual conference mentioned in paragraph 3 successful ?
A.A larger audience.
B.Better arrangement.
C.Environmental friendliness.
D.Beating the ongoing pandemic.
【3】What does the author intend to do in paragraph 4?
A.Provide some advice for the hosts.
B.Summarize the previous paragraphs.
C.Introduce a new topic for the audience.
D.List some advantages of virtual conferences.
【4】In which section of a newspaper does this text probably appear?
A.Business. B.Opinion. C.Culture. D.Travel.

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
“Life of Pi” is narrated by an older Pi and takes place in the present as he tells his life story to a writer. Pi begins with how he got his name and how his family owned a zoo, but eventually leads into his family needing to leave India for financial 【1】. The heart of the story lies in Pi as a young man and the time he spent out at sea on a lifeboat with a tiger named Richard Parker, but getting to that point is quite an ordeal（苦难考验）. Pi loses everything and everyone close to him in the blink of an eye and he doesn’t 【2】 on making what feels like an unbreakable bond with a Bengal tiger.
The 【3】 film offers a rather marvelous message about religion as Pi discusses the experimentation with several different religions as a young boy. Even though it seems kind of silly that a boy has 【4】 so many religions at one point in his life, it portrays a/an 【5】 message in a light that doesn’t seem too preachy（说教的）. But the religious aspect is really only a backdrop for being on your own 【6】 to finding who you really are. Feeling so alone for so long and having Pi talk about not being alone and not getting to say goodbye to those he cared about most is one of those things that just hits you really hard.
While witnessing Pi attempt to tame Richard Parker is really 【7】, there are so many unbelievable sights to witness in “Life of Pi”. There’s the whale, the jellyfish, the flying fish, that 【8】 storm, and that seaweed island with all of the meerkats (a kind of monkey). “Life of Pi” never really lets up on being 【9】 breathtaking and amazing from beginning to end.
“Life of Pi” is pleasantly satisfying. With a heartfelt message, beautiful visuals, and stunning camera work. “Life of Pi” is truly a sight to behold and illustrates how 【10】 3D can be to a film that isn’t just a summer hit or blockbuster.
