24、
Recently, Donald Trump has been chosen to be the Person of the Year by Time. But who is the Person of the Year in your heart?
Katrina, 13, England
In my eyes, the Person of the Year must be British actor Alan Rickman. I love him because of his beautiful voice in the movie Alice in Wonderland. The most successful character he has made is Severus Snape in the Harry Potter movies, who loves Lily till the last second of his life. In 2016, he died at the age of 69. The author of Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling said he was a perfect actor and a wonderful man.
Henry, 13, Portugal
The Person of the Year must be Antonio Manuel de Oliveira Guterres. He was the former premier of Portugal (葡萄牙总理). And now he is the new Secretary-General (秘书长) of the United Nations. Before him, eight persons have taken this job. In my opinion, the UN Secretary General always plays an important role in developing international relationships. I think that he is worth offering the job and will make something great to the world.
Zhang Xiaoning, 15, China
I think Guo Chuan, the famous Chinese sailor, can be Person of the Year. Guo broke many world records with his sailing boat. He often sailed around the world alone. He had strong spirit. Whatever difficulties he met, he never gave up. He went missing at sea earlier this year. But he still lives on in my heart.
Michael, 12, France
The person I want to choose would be Teresa May, the new Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Since the UK left the European Union, many people thought that the UK would be in a mess. However, May made an effort to "save the UK". She has done a good job. It is said that she has dealt with the chaos (混乱) of the English political parties (政党). She has also solved a lot of problems and showed her abilities to the world. She has been praised as the second Margaret Thatcher (撒切尔) for her hard work.

25、 A scientist once said that the Internet was the world's largest library, but that all the books were on the floor! In other words, it's full of information but it can be difficult to find just what you're looking for. The Internet has another drawback, too. Anyone can create a website, which means you can find websites about every subject imaginable. Unluckily, it also means that a lot of information which is written on them isn't true!
The Internet provides more than just information. There are sites where you can download(下载)music and films either for free or for a small charge. Other sites allow you to get in touch with people from all over the world and there are some great online shops like eBay where people sell used clothes, CDs and even cars very cheaply.
The Internet is helpful in our life, but we shouldn't depend on it too much. Because of its size, it's very difficult to control and a lot of the information isn't worth reading. Some people also fear that surfing the net has taken the place of other healthier activities. Whether you like it or hate it, you'd better get used to it because it's here to stay!
Here's a survey(调查)about how people of my age use the Internet. 80% of them said they used it to help them with their homework. 70% said they used it to keep in touch with their friends. 40% said that they downloaded music from the Internet. And 30% said they bought something online. Only 10% said they couldn't use the Internet very often because they didn't have a computer at home.
【1】What does the scientist say about the Internet?
A.Most of the information the Internet has is from books.
B.You can't easily find what you want on the Internet.
C.Most of the information on the Internet is from libraries.

A.advantage B.connection C.development D.disadvantage

26、 You may be able to care for your physical health by wearing a mask, washing your hands, and doing regular exercise during the coronavirus epidemic, but how do you treat your mental health? Millions of people are facing fear, anxiety and depression as lockdowns, transportation bans and quarantines (隔离期) continue.
As part of the government's "first level response", the National Health Commission said more than 300 hotlines are now available throughout China. Callers can talk with counseling (咨询) services and people from university psychology departments, Reuters reported. Depending on your location, you can call one of these 24-hour hotlines for psychological support and general advice if you're experiencing anxiety, depression or panic attacks — no matter whether you're a patient, medical worker or just someone stuck at home.
A survey conducted by the Chinese Psychology Society found that of the 18,000 people tested for coronavirus-related anxiety, 42.6 percent were anxious, according to NBC News.
“A stable state of mind can help reduce impatience and anxiety, which is helpful for treatment. Providing psychological counseling and appropriate medicine, psychiatry (心理治疗) can play an important role in the battle against the epidemic,” said Chen Jun, an expert from the Shanghai Mental Health Center, on CCTV.
A healthy mind supports a healthy body. Stress weakens the immune system, according to the American Psychological Association. Managing stress may help people fight off a virus.
In addition to hotlines, online platforms and social media have also offered support to those dealing with the mental pressure of worrying about the virus. One virus-related hashtag (话题), which translates as "how to deal with feeling very anxious at home," has been viewed by hundreds of millions of Sina Weibo users.
Universities have set up support groups on QQ, while thousands of doctors provide counseling for users on JD. com. KnowYourself, a public WeChat account, hopes to reduce panic attacks to frontline medical workers, patients and their families.
“People are scared, their lives are being interrupted, so to have a voice that helps to comfort them and calm them and kind of guide them through this process can be very helpful,” Paul Yin, a psychologist in Beijing, said.
Keeping a positive mindset is key during this difficult time. Remember to keep things in perspective and maintain social networks with your family and friends. Treat your mind well, and your body will follow.
【1】What can we learn about the counseling service from Paragraph 2?
A.Only patients and medical workers are offered the service.
B.Over 300 hotlines are available in every city across China.
C.It's aimed at people with coronavirus-related mental problems.

B.It takes a long time to rid people of their anxiety.
C.It is helpful for anxious people to talk with each other.
D.Various communications are in need in the counseling process.
27、 When something goes wrong, it can be very pleasing to say. “Well, it’s so-and-so’s mistake.” or “I know I’m late, but it’s not my mistake; the bus was late.” It is probably not your mistake, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you start thinking about how to improve the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.
Winners are great at solving problems. For example, if you were late because the bus was late, maybe you need to leave home early. Or, you might call a taxi or call friends for help when in need. For another example, if your workmate causes you problems on the job for short of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability. Ask to work with a different person, or leave some simple jobs to this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable.
This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using yow skills and wisdom so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better as seeing those problems as challenges and chances to develop their own ability. So, stop thinking about “whose mistake it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stones for success.
【1】According to the passage, winners ______.
A.have responsible and able workmates
B.meet with fewer difficulties in their lives
C.blame themselves rather than others
D.deal with problems rather than blame others
【2】When problems happen, winners take them as ______.
A.excuses for their mistales
B.difficulties to greater power
C.chances for self-development
D.challenges to their workmates
【3】Which of the following the best title for the passage?
A.A Winner’s Secret
B.A Winner’s Problem
C.A Winner’s Chance
D.A Winner’s Achievement
