21、How can you use curiosity to enjoy your studies more and improve your results? Below are some hints of how you can awaken your curiosity.

Listen to yourself when you ask questions

【1】 and your mind starts to question, don’t ignore it. If you can’t explore the answer right then, make a note to find out later. Questioning, exploring and investigating are good! It shows that you have an active and interested mind. Reward yourself by finding out the answer. The more you know about what you are studying, the better you will understand it.

Ask quality questions

Ask good questions such as “why” “what if” and “how”. The better the questions you ask, the more interesting answers you will find. 【2】.

Play around with new things and ideas

Learn to play with and think about your ideas, your feelings and new materials and objects. “What can you do with these ideas, feelings and things? Maybe they could be used in an essay, article, poem or science experiment, or could be a gift or favour for someone else.

【3】. Just because adults teach you, it does not mean that they know everything or the best way to do things. Young people are the future. Don’t be scared to put your ideas forward!

Work with new people in class

Don’t always join the same friends for group projects in class. 【4】. Where possible, choose to work with students who enjoy asking questions and finding out new things, or students who have a lively, curious mind.

【5】, and how it might relate to classwork

Have you heard something interesting in the news—a social problem or new technology that interests you? Find out more about it. Then remember if you have studied anything about that subject.

A．Something magical happens

B．Different people work differently

C．Keep an ear open for current events

D．If you can apply curiosity to your study

E．When you are reading or studying something

F．Always be prepared to think about things in new ways

G．All of this will contribute to your classroom learning

22、   Fitness trackers are damaging youngster's mental health. 【1】A leading preparatory school headmaster has issued this warning. William Dunlop, head of Clayesmore Preparatory School in Dorset, said that "well-meaning" mothers and fathers are increasingly buying their children activity trackers as gifts.

【2】 Therefore, they are viewed by many parents as a good way to encourage their children to exercise. But parents are buying the gadgets without necessarily considering the negative side-effects. 【3】.

"You have physical as well as mental consequences," he said. "I see the early stages of that. It is not long before the competitive instinct (本能) could become quite unhealthy." Then, writing in Attain, the Independent Prep School Association's magazine, he said: "Wearable activity trackers have become steadily more mainstream over the last few years, so much so that an increasing number of children are wearing them. 【4】. The trouble is that the data is very rarely used well. In fact, the way it is presented can be positively harmful."

Mr. Dunlop said that some children are "particularly easy to be influenced by obsessive (过度沉迷的) behavior in pursuit of certain goals, such as 30,000 steps a day". He said "responsible, well-meaning parents" may think they are helping their children by responding to the problem of childhood inactivity.

In fact, Mr. Dunlop says that such items are "entirely unnecessary" as in most cases, 【5】 The fitness trackers can lead to unpredictable risks of obsessive behavior and overwork as well as the issue of online safety, since so much data about a child's health is uploaded.

If parents really want their children to develop active lifestyle, they should encourage them to take part in sociable sporting activities, Mr. Dunlop advised.

A．because their children are already very active.

B．Parents should stop encouraging their children to wear them.

C．A new tracker designed for children over eight has been launched.

D．Used well, the data they provide can be invaluable in promoting fitness.

E．Those include contributing towards anxiety or other mental health issues.

F．By all means use these things but make sure to get them involved in sports clubs.

G．The trackers can measure data from the number of steps you take to your heart rate.

23、   A mix of anxiety rising in my chest and a voice at the back of my mind shouting ‘what’s wrong with me?’ –it’s how I’ve felt about rejection my whole life.

The earliest rejection I can remember was on my first day of school. I started the term late due to illness and the teacher asked the class who would play with me at break. The silence was deafening. Now, a bit of online dating sees us rejected by half the town before we've even started our day. There's not a break at work. Is there a worse feeling than hitting the final slide on your presentation, boldly asking 'any questions?' and looking around the room to see everyone on their phones?

We need to build resilience. For me, this has come in two stages. First, I spent time listening to the voice of fear that saw each rejection as proof that there was something wrong with me. When I analysed it, I could see it was rarely about me. Perhaps the guy I was talking to was too busy to reply. It was likely that the magazine I'd sent a passage to already had an article on that topic. Now, I assume it's about me 20 per cent of the time - and I can live with that.

The other thing I do is practice rejecting. Because I hate rejection, I shy away from being the rejector, which means I either please people or avoid tricky situations. Instead, I've come up with a few lines for when I want to say no: 'That sounds great but it's not for me; thank you for asking but I decline; it was lovely but I think we should leave it there.' It's never pleasant to reject a person but there is a kind way to do it. With resilience and clarity, we can see the plus sides of rejection: it frees us up to do something else, be with someone else and be happier. We can't complain about that.

【1】What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?

A.The examples of the author's being rejected.

B.The experiences of the author's online dating.

C.The reasons of the author's lateness for school.

D.The feelings of the author's being ignored at work.

【2】What did the author find after analyzing the reason of rejection?

A.He could live with it. B.It was partly about him.

C.He did something wrong. D.It had nothing to do with him.

【3】What might be the author's advice when you reject others?

A.Do it with resilience and clarity.

B.Come up with a few pleasant lines.

C.Please others or avoid tricky situations.

D.Show your kindness and don't complain.

【4】What is one of the benefits of rejection?

A.It enables us to live. B.It gives us more time.

C.It has some plus sides. D.It does something else.

24、About a month after I joined Facebook, I got a call from Lori Goler, a highly regarded senior director of marketing at eBay. She made it clear this was a business call. “I want to apply to work with you at Facebook,” she said. “Instead of recommending myself, I want to ask you: What is your biggest problem, and how can I solve it?”

  My jaw hit the floor. I had hired thousands of people over the previous decade and no one had ever said anything remotely like that. People usually focus on finding the right role for themselves, with the implication that their skills will help the company. Lori put Facebook’s needs front and center. It was a killer approach. I responded, “Recruiting is my biggest problem. And, yes, you can solve it.”

  Lori never dreamed she would work in recruiting, but she jumped in. She even agreed to trade earnings for acquiring new skills in a new field. Lori did a great job running recruiting and within months was promoted to her current job, leading People@Facebook.

  The most common metaphor for careers is a ladder, but this concept no longer applies to most workers. As of 2010, the average American had eleven jobs from the ages of eighteen to forty-six alone. Lori often quotes Pattie Sellers, who came up with a much better metaphor: “Careers are a jungle gym, not a ladder.”

  As Lori describes it, there’s only one way to get to the top of a ladder, but there are many ways to get to the top of a jungle gym. The jungle gym model benefits everyone, but especially women who might be starting careers, switching careers, getting blocked by external barriers, or reentering the workforce after taking time off. The ability to create a unique path with occasional dips, detours (弯路), and even dead ends presents great views of many people, not just those at the top. On a ladder, most climbers are stuck staring at the butt of the person above.

【1】Why did Lori make the call?

A. She helped Facebook to solve the biggest problem.

B. She wanted to make a business deal with Facebook.

C. She tried to ask for a pay rise in Facebook.

D. She wanted to become an employee in Facebook.

【2】What impressed “I” by Lori?

A. Lori was good at running recruiting.

B. Lori attached great importance to Facebook’s needs.

C. Lori jumped in Facebook with no adequate experience.

D. Lori was skilled in marketing at eBay.

【3】What can we infer from the passage?

A. Now all people don’t tend to climb the ladder.

B. None on the ladder can enjoy the great views.

C. Jungle gyms offer limited exploration for employees.

D. A pregnant woman, jobless, benefits little from the jungle gyms.

【4】What is the best title of the passage?

A. It’s a Jungle Gym, Not a Ladder.

B. Facebook’s Biggest Problem.

C. Applying for a Job in Facebook.

D. A Jungle Gym is Better than a Ladder.

26、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。

Boys like to be considered to be popular with others. Martin was such a young and generous boy, who thought he had loads of good friends in school. He was always showing off to his family members that he had the maximum number of friends in school. Also, he claimed how friendly he was with everyone. His family members wanted him to recognize the reality, thus not being cheated in the future.

One day as he was talking triumphantly about his friends at home again, his father called him for a bet. Father said, “Martin, I bet you for the cycle you wanted.” Martin. “What’s the bet?” Father thought for a while and answered, “I bet you do not have as many friends as you think. Everyone is not your real friend. I’m sure many of them are nothing more than your classmates, in other words, they are just your fair-weather friends.” Martin, without a second thought, accepted the challenge.

However, he had no idea how to test whether his classmates were real friends or not, so he asked his father about the testing way. A bright smile spread across the face of his father, “Wait a minute. I have just exactly what you need. It is a special item in my collection. Let me go and bring it.” Martin waited curiously. Several minutes later, Martin’s father returned, walking towards him, looking like he was carrying something heavy. But Martin could not see anything.

His father explained, “You see, this is a magic chair. It is invisible, and it is rather difficult to sit on it. You take this to your school. If you manage to sit on it, the special chair will activate its magic. Then you will be able to tell who are your real friends.”

The next day, brave and determined, Martin took the magic invisible chair to school.
