【3】. As the saying goes, “Knowledge is power.” You may need to ask a doctor or nurse to repeat things to be sure that you understand everything. The more you find out about your condition, the more you feel in control and the less frightening it is.
The final stage of dealing with a chronic illness is taking it calmly. At this stage, people feel comfortable with their treatment. 【4】.

22、We’ve all heard of terms IQ and EQ, which are commonly used. But have you heard of AQ? 【1】 Being able to handle these rough periods we all go through is not only important in our personal lives but in our professional lives too.
Adverse situations can take us by surprise and shock us. 【2】 Failed friendships and relationships, financial hard times and even sorrows of losing beloved ones can occur outside of work. AQ measures our ability to withstand the shocks when life throws curveballs at us and can be used to predict our resilience (承受力) when there is a dramatic change. So how can we learn to be more resilient?
Luckily, there are some steps you can take to help you be more resilient in the face of adversity. 【3】 Resilient people often have an aim and are able to concentrate more on a desired outcome, seeing negative situations as a bump in the road on the way to achieving their goal. Learning to relax and regulate your emotions is another key step. One way to help you out of stress is by practising breathing exercises. Similarly, focusing on unhappy or uncertain things can cause you to be stressed. See difficulties more as an opportunity to learn and grow emotionally. Finally, make sure you have a good social support network. 【4】
We can’t prevent things happening in life. 【5】 But taking a few steps to be more resilient can make them a little easier to get through.

23、 Shanghai residents passing through the city's eastern Huangpu district in October might have astonished at an unusual sight: a “walking” building. An 85-year-old primary school has been lifted off the ground and relocated using new technology named the “walking machine.”
In the city's latest effort to preserve historic structures, engineers attached nearly 200 mobile supports under the five-story building, according to Lan Wuji, chief technical supervisor (技术总监) of the project. The supports act like robotic legs. They're divided into two groups which alternately rise up and down, imitating the human pace. Attached sensors help control how the building moves forward, said Lan.
In recent decades, China's rapid modernization has seen many historic buildings razed to clear land for high-rise buildings. But there has been growing concern about the architectural heritage lost as a result of destruction across the country. Some cities have launched new preservation and conservation campaigns including, on occasion, the use of advanced technologies that allow old buildings to be relocated rather than destroyed.
Shanghai has possibly been China's most progressive city when it comes to heritage preservation. The survival of a number of 1930s buildings in the famous Bund district and 19th-century “Shikumen” houses in the rebuilt Xintiandi neighborhood have offered examples of how to give old buildings new life. The city also has a satisfying record of relocating old buildings. In 2018, the city relocated a 90-year-old building in Hongkou district, in what was then considered to be Shanghai's most complex relocation project to date.
The Lagena Primary School, which weighs 7,600 tons, posed a new challenge-it's T-shaped, while previously relocated structures were square or four-sided. Experts met to discuss possibilities and test a number of different technologies before deciding on the “walking machine”, Lan said. However, he couldn't share the exact cost of the project, and that relocation costs will differ case by case. “It can't be used as a reference, because we have to preserve the historical building no matter what,” he said. “But in general, it's cheaper than destroying and then rebuilding something in a new location.”
【1】How does the “walking” machine work?
A.It uses hundreds of ropes to lift up the entire building.
B.It uses many wheels to roll the building to the new place.
C.It lifts off the building story by story with the robotic legs.
D.It uses sensors to control the movement of mobile supports.
【2】What does the underlined word “razed” probably mean in Paragraph 3?
A.replaced B.burnt C.protected D.destroyed
【3】According to paragraph 3-4, what can we infer about the heritage preservation in China?
A.The use of advanced technology leads to growing concern.
B.Shanghai is the pioneer in preserving architectural heritage.
C.The local government has already taken action since the 1930s.
D.It consequently holds back the progress of modernization.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A.New preservation campaigns are launched in China.
B.Modernization poses threats to historic buildings.
C.A building in Shanghai “walks” to a new location.
D.“Walking machine” makes heritage protection cheaper.
24、 With a good shopping position and the right amount of money, any educated person ought to be able to make a living out of a bookshop. It is not a difficult trade to learn and the large chain-stores can never force the small bookseller out of existence as they have done to the corner shop. But the hours of work are very long — I was only doing a part-time job, but my boss put in a seventy-hour week, besides regular journeys out of shopping hours to buy books.
The real reason why I should not like to be back in the book trade for life, however, is that while I was in it I lost my love of books. A bookseller cannot always tell the truth about his books, and that gives him a dislike for them. There was a time when I really did love books — loved the sight and smell and feel of them — if they were fifty or more years old, that is. Nothing pleased me quite so much as to buy a bargain lot of them on sale for several pounds. There is a peculiar flavor about the unexpected books you pick up in that kind of collection: little-known eighteenth-century poets, or out-of-date geography books. For occasional reading — in your bath, for example, or late at night when you are too tired to go to bed — there is nothing as good as a very old picture story-book.
But as soon as I went to work in the bookshop I stopped buying books. Seen in a mass, five or ten thousand at a time, books were dull and even a little tiresome. Nowadays I do buy one occasionally, but only if it is a book that I want to read and can’t borrow, and I never buy rubbish.
【1】According to the passage, ________ is one of the necessary conditions to run a bookshop.
A．an educated shop-owner
B．a good position at a street corner
C．a regular journey out of the shop
D．the force of large chain-stores
【2】The author should not like to be back as a bookseller for life because ________.
A．he hated his job of selling books
B．selling books was only a part-time job
C．the books in the shop gave him a dislike
D．he was unable to be honest about the books he sold
【3】The books preferred by the author should be those ________.
A．stories making readers sleepless
B．valuable ones bought on sale
C．peculiar ones with great expectation
D．geography ones from the eighteenth century
【4】The author will only buy new books ________.
A．if he feels dull and tired
B．after he gives up his job as a bookseller
C．which are interesting but hard to borrow
D．when he throws away old ones
25、 Songs bring us through our life.

Just one year after the disaster ______, she stood up again and ______ this encouraging song at the Atlanta Olympics.

I seemed to be the ______ outstanding one in my class.
