26、In today’s information age, it’s nearly impossible to avoid using social media. According to USA Today, even American universities are increasingly using social media as a learning tool. Their goal is to teach students how to use social media professionally.
Jade Johnson is taking an upper-level advertising course at the University of North Carolina Wilmington. For the class, he has had to organize and promote a contest via Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, channels that are commonly used by advertising firms.
“A lot of times students prefer not to use certain social media, but are forced because of the class,” says Jade.
Some students may be unwilling to create an account, but Jade says that it was helpful because social media skills mean better job opportunities in today’s world.
More college classes are appearing that are designed specially to teach students about social media, offering them a different look into something they may use on a daily basis.
Jenna Kapsis, a senior at William Paterson University, was required to post two Tweets on Twitter and one update on Facebook per week in her Digital and Social Media Communication class. The course had a specific Facebook page where students would create discussion groups and post links.
“Some of the topics included social media manners, online marketing and current events,” Kapsis says.
As technology continues to develop, colleges and universities will likely continue to find ways to combine it into their teaching. Whether it’s to create discussion groups, carry out plans, or communicate with students, professors are ensuring that students can see the potential（潜力，潜能）of mastering social media platforms.
【1】According to Jade Johnson, what’s the benefit of social media skills ?
A．Increasing the possibility of finding good jobs.
B．Bettering the communication between teachers and students.
C．Improving students’ learning efficiency.
D．Offering students a different look into things.
【2】Which of the following may NOT be one way to combine social media into teaching ?
A．Carrying out plans.
B．Doing some experiments.
C．Creating discussion groups.
D．Communicating with students.
【3】Why do the US university focus on the promotion of social media skills ?
A．Because it can strengthen the universities’ competitiveness.
B．Because it will improve the universities’ teaching quality.
C．Because it will help professors carry out researches more easily.
D．Because it will be of great importance in this high-tech society.
【4】Which of the following is true according to the passage ?
A．Most students are unwilling to use social media.
B．Social media skills are hard for students to master.
C．Social media skills have been used in some courses.
D．The learning of social media skills is a heavy burden for students.
27、I enjoy throwing stuff away. I’d love to go full minimalism (极简主义), but my wife and two teenage kids do not share my dream of a house with almost nothing in it. I have tried. When the kids were little, I taught them my two favorite games — “Do We Need It?” and “Put It in Its Place” — and made them play every few months. Their enthusiasm never matched mine.
If I’m going to be honest, my own tidying skills are not as great as I’d like. My “abandoned” pile is never quite the trash mountain I want because I make up excuses for why things are useful. I consider this unhealthy. I want to be better at moving on.
So, this time I found help — the classics for people like me: The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, by Marie Kondo. Can I go full Kondo? I will try. One central idea is to clean by category (类别). You start by collecting all clothes and gathering them together for consideration. It makes you rethink how you organize. Next, hold each item and ask if it brings you joy. This way you’re choosing what to keep. And that’s how I find myself with all my clothes on my bedroom floor. My wife walks by and gives me a look that says I’m nuts. She’s probably not wrong.
Somewhere near the bottom of this chaos is my special jacket. I move through the pile: pants, shirts, suits and shoes. Then my last category: jackets. I haven’t worn the thing in about 30 years. Somehow, it has survived. Now that I’m striving to follow Kondo — surely, its time has come?
I hold it in my hand. There is a tear just below the collar that widens as I hold it. It’s literally falling apart. Will I ever wear it again? Not a chance. Does it feel good to wear? Does it bring me joy? Actually, yes. At this moment, my daughter walks in. She asks about the jacket. I tell her the story. She thinks I should keep it. It’s cool and unique and full of memories. She is arguing that nostalgia (怀念) is the very reason.
I’m not entirely convinced by my daughter’s arguments. I believe in looking ahead, not backward. However, sometimes it’s hard to let go. So I gently place the jacket on the “keep” pile.
【1】Why did my “abandoned” pile never grow?
A．Because I had no time to tidy up.
B．Because I always found my things valuable.
C．There was almost nothing in my house already.
D．Because my wife and kids refuse to throw away.
【2】What drives the author to read The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up?
A．To learn how to categorize.
B．To improve his tidying skills.
C．To persuade his family members.
D．To develop passion for minimalism.
【3】What is the attitude of the author’s family members toward minimalism?
A．They don’t understand it.
B．They completely support it.
C．They are strongly against it.
D．They are less passionate about it.
【4】What’s the best title for the text?
A．Knowing when to let go
B．Choosing what you love
C．Throwing worn-out clothes
D．Keeping valuable belongings
28、Differences do set us apart, but we often forget that we are all human, and our culture is much more representative (有代表性的) of our differing environment than truly different people. Here are some tips on how to understand and admire cultural differences.
【1】 In almost every single case, the only thing required to bridge cultural differences is an introduction. This isn't always easy, but the best thing to do is make an effort — go to the international folk music festival, eat in a restaurant where English isn't the first language, and say hello to the new family down the street.
Invite other cultures into your home. 【2】 Some people open their homes to exchange students with apps like Air BnB, while others might work through a church or charity to help provide for traveling groups. Even easier, you can simply invite people from other cultures over for dinner. 【3】
Read as much about the local culture as you can before arriving. It is irresponsible to arrive in a new place without knowing how things usually run. You may get immediately shocked upon landing, which can make it harder to accept the culture later on.【4】 Read online, check some books, and generally arrive well-informed. Having some knowledge beforehand will help with any culture shock.
Share parts of your own culture and life to encourage others to share theirs. One of the best things to bring while traveling is a set of photos from home, allowing you to bring people into your own life and culture from anywhere.【5】 And learning is the key to understanding and, finally acceptance.
A．You can accept travelers or exchange students.
B．Therefore, be ready for some shocks or changes in the real world.
C．Seek out experiences, foods, and people who seem foreign to you.
D．Get out to see new places, pushing your comfort zone as much as possible.
E．Giving a little bit of yourself is the best way to learn a little bit about others.
F．You'll be surprised how much most people want to meet and talk to foreigners.
G．The best way to understand and admire cultural differences is over food and friendship.
29、"What is your name?" I asked as I offered the gentleman some freshly made blueberry and banana pancakes. "I go by Mr. X," he told me and gladly accepted the pancakes. He immediately noted, "Now there ' re a lot of blueberries!"
Mr. X told me about a lady who brought him some soup with blueberries, about which he was very happy until he discovered there was only 1 blueberry in the soup. Since he wanted more blueberries in his soup, his solution was to just put the pancakes into his soup. And then he began to talk, and talk, and talk.
As Mr. X would near the end of one story, meaning that he was almost done, he would tail off into another story. He just wanted someone to listen to him. He told me the details of how a friend of his was hit by a car as if he were standing there watching. Nothing he said came without a vivid description. It had to be true, I thought. I just listened. Then, Mr. X began to tell me about the government covering up their knowledge of aliens. I began to think, "Was anything Mr. X was telling me true? Was he making this up?"
He told me that he was nearly hit by a car. I wanted to believe him, but I realized that the truth wasn't really important right now. Mr. X just longed for some company. I was able to provide him with that for nearly an hour. As a matter of fact, Mr. X did indeed have a friend knocked down by a car nearly two years ago. Everything he told me about that event was indeed exact. What' s the difference between reality and invention?
That's not for me to decide. My role was to provide Mr. X with the space to tell his stories. I hope to see him again someday.
【1】How did Mr. X feel after he checked the given soup?

D．Disappointed.
【2】Why did Mr. X put the pancakes into the soup?

B．To please the author.
C．To add more blueberries to it.
D．To make the pancakes delicious.
【3】What did the author think of Mr. X's stories at first?
A．He doubted them.
B．He didn't care about them.
C．He believed them completely.
D．He thought them interesting.
【4】How did the author respond to Mr. X?
A．By offering him space to stay.
B．By trying to be a good listener.
C．By preventing him talking politely.
D．By questioning the truth in his stories.

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can be only used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
Sept 27 is World Tourism Day. Of course, travel isn’t a new discovery. Imagine how Italian traveler Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese 【1】, seeing a way of life quite different from anything he’d seen before.
And how 【2】 must it have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia? His brain must have been packed with everything he’d seen and heard, leading to the 【3】 of the Silk Road.
Travel is one of the most exciting experiences a human being can have. Nowadays, more people are traveling than ever before. By train, plane and car, people all around the globe are 【4】 to places that people didn’t even know 【5】 a few centuries ago, or only knew from books.
Some people have traveled all over the world, and travel is a way of life to them. They perhaps know what to expect before they travel. That’s why the best travel is when it’s for the first time. Imagine a person who has always wanted to travel to the United States. Of course, they’ve probably seen the Statue of Liberty a thousand times on the TV, and the White House, and all the other famous 【6】 But none of that would compare to the 【7】 of looking out of the cabin window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into 【8】.
Although travel is often just for fun, it’s also 【9】. We may not know that we are getting an education, but we still are.
We’re learning every day: new words in a new language, new people, and new ways of life. But this learning takes place in the school of the world, not the classroom. One of the lessons we learn is 【10】 a moral one. As we get to know foreign places, we come to understand that there are many different ways to live, and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best way. The British politician Benjamin Disraeli summed this up well when he said, “Travel teaches toleration.”
32、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
After suffering years with a failing liver, Brenda learned that she would need a liver transplant (肝脏移植) to survive. She was only 21 years old. She wanted to live. And by all accounts, with a healthy liver, she could survive with a healthy liver. So, the doctors placed her on a liver transplant list hoping a donor (器官捐献者) would eventually appear. Brenda waited for a full year before she received the call from her doctor that a match had been found. Thankful that a donor liver had been found, Brenda planned her transplant surgery with great excitement.
But before the procedure was performed, she received another call from her transplant surgeon at Baylor. He told Brenda about a 23-year-old woman named Susan needed a liver transplant immediately, without which she would die within 24 hours.
