21、There have been few positives during the pandemic but British academics may have unearthed one people look more attractive in protective masks.
Dr Michael Lewis, an expert in faces, said research carried out before the pandemic had found that medical face masks reduced attractiveness because they were associated with disease. “We wanted to test whether this had changed since face coverings became common and understand whether the type of mask had any effect.” he said. “Our study suggests faces are considered most attractive when covered by medical face masks. This may be because we’re used to health care workers wearing blue masks and now we associate these with people in caring or medical professions.”
The research was carried out in February 202I by which time the British population had become used to wearing masks in some circumstances. Forty-three women were asked to rate on a scale of one to 10 the attractiveness of images of male faces without a mask, wearing a plain cloth mask, a blue medical face mask, and holding a plain black book covering the area a face mask would hide. The participants said those wearing a cloth mask were significantly more attractive than the ones with no masks or whose faces were partly covered by the book. But the surgical mask—which was just a normal, disposable kind—made the wearer look even better.
“The pandemic has changed our psychology in how we perceive the wearers of masks.” said Lewis. “When we see someone wearing a mask we no longer think that person has a disease, I need to stay away’ Lewis said it was possible that masks made people more attractive because they directed attention to the eyes. Other studies had found that covering the left or right half of a face also made people look more attractive, partly because the brain fills in the missing gaps and exaggerates the overall impact.
【1】How did people wearing medical face masks use to strike others?
A．strange
B．relaxing
C．undesirable
D．attractive
【2】According to the research, which of the following is the most appealing?

【3】What can be inferred about the effect of the pandemic on people from the text?

【4】What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．Masks help during the pandemic.
B．Men need to wear masks.

22、Though it’s somewhat mysterious, sleep talking is a common phenomenon. 【1】 (and less than 10% do it every day). And roughly 67% of adults talk in their sleep at least once every three months. It often runs in families and tends to be more common among men.
【2】— ranging from mumbling（咕噜）to complete sentences. Sometimes it may seem as though the sleep-talker is giving a speech, while at other times it can sound as though the person is carrying on a conversation with someone else. The chatter can occur during any stage of sleep.
If a friend or family member has ever told you that you talk in your sleep, your first concern might be whether you said something offensive or let out a long-held secret. 【3】, as far as your health is concerned.
Sleep talking is considered a sleep disorder. In terms of what causes it, inadequate sleep, alcohol or drug use, illness, stress, anxiety, and depression are common causes of such unconscious thinking. 【4】. In rare situations, sleep talking is associated with a psychiatric disorder(精神障碍).
If you’re frequently waking up tired, or you feel overwhelmed or sad most of the time, it's worth talking to your doctor about sleep talking. 【5】. If you talk in your sleep only occasionally and you are not experiencing symptoms of any other sleep disorders or health conditions, then it's probably nothing to worry about.
A．It can be annoying to be a sleep-talker
B．Sleep talking can vary considerably in its content
C．About half of kids talk in their sleep at least once a year
D．Just make sure that it isn’t a red flag or another health problem

G．Sometimes this nighttime chatter accompanies other sleep disorders such as sleepwalking
23、Surf holidays don’t have to mean noisy backpacker hotels and sticky floors. You can also book some truly unique surf stays right here.
The house on an island, Newquay, England
Separated from the mainland and accessed via a suspension bridge, this island is completely isolated (隔绝的) by water. It’s particularly famous for surfing and storm watching. Once on the island, you can pick your own flag from the collection in the house and raise it to let everyone know you’ve arrived.
Sleeps Six, from £ 1,776 for Three Nights.
The eco turf house, Isle of Lewis, Scotland
Folks in the northern hemisphere (半球) have been building such houses since 4,000 BC. Special roofs keep the houses naturally warm. These cottages also attract wildlife.

Sleeps two, from £ 600 for two nights.
The inland surf camp, Bristol, England
The Camp at The Wave is minutes from an artificial surf break producing 1,000 perfect waves of varying sizes and shapes an hour. Unlike other surf destinations, you can book your trip for whenever suits you and be guaranteed perfect waves. These tents have a kitchen. There’s also a cafe on site.

24、 Educators today are more and more often heard to say that computer literacy is absolutely necessary for college students. Many even argue that each incoming freshman should have his or her own microcomputer. What advantages do computers offer the college students?
Any student who has used a word processor will know one compelling reason to use a computer: to write papers. Although not all students feel comfortable composing on a word processor, most find revising and editing much easier on it. One can alter, insert, or delete just by pressing a few keys, thus eliminating the need to rewrite or re-type. Furthermore, since the revision process is less difficult, students are more likely to revise as often as is necessary to end up with the best paper possible. For these reasons, many freshman English courses require the use of a word processor.
Computers are also useful in the context of language courses, where they are used to drill students in basic skills. Software programs strengthen ESL(English as a Second Language ) instruction, as well as instruction in French, German, Spanish, and other languages. By using these programs on a regular basis, students can improve their skills in a language while proceeding at their own pace.
Science students take advantage of computers in many ways. Using computer graphic capabilities, for example, botany( 植物学） students can represent and analyze different plant growth patterns. Medical students can learn to interpret computerized images of internal body structures. Physics students can complete complex calculations far
more quickly than they could without the use of computer.
Similarly, business and accounting students find that computer spreadsheet programs are all but important to many aspects of their work, while students pursuing careers in graphic arts, marketing, and public relations find that knowledge of computer graphic is important. Education majors learn to develop grading systems using computers, while social science students use computers for analyzing and graphically displacing their research results.
It is no wonder, then, that educators support the purchase and use of microcomputers by students. A useful tool, the computer can help students learn. And that is, after all, the reason for going to college.
【1】The word"literacy" (Line 1,Paragraph 1) means _________.
A.the ability to read and write B.the ability to use

A.to learn something B.to perfect themselves
C.to improve computer skills D.to make the best use of computers
【4】The main purpose of this passage is to _________.
A.persuade the educators to increase computer use in their own classroom
B.analyze advantages and disadvantages of computer use among college students
C.identify some of the ways that computers benefit college students
D.describe how computers can be used to teach foreign languages
