26、 The widespread use of Internet technology has made our lives easier but causes a big challenge to senior citizens (长者), who are not always comfortable with smartphones and so many new apps.
Only a few senior citizens are able to enjoy the benefits that new technologies offer. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the number of people aged 60 and above was 253.88 million in 2019, about 18.1% of China’s population. But only 23% of the senior citizens were able to use the Internet. That means more than three-fourths of the elderly are deprived (被剥夺) of the digital benefits.
Many senior citizens who can’t use smartphones are facing difficulties during this pandemic (流行病). Even with a smartphone in hand and Internet available, many of them still feel helpless. They don’t know how to call a taxi through the apps. There have been reports of many shops turning away elders who don’t know how to pay using smartphones, instead of letting them pay with cash. Worse still, as they don’t know how to get the Internet-based health code (健康码), they are refused to enter many public places. Presenting individual health code is part of the epidemic prevention (防疫) and control measures
New technologies become popular because they are often of great use in our daily lives. But many senior citizens, especially those living in the countryside or those whose grown-up children don’t live with them, are not able to use the Internet or smartphones,either because of financial (财政的) problems or because they cannot learn new things beyond a certain point. The digital gap between the elderly and the young is becoming more obvious.
However, the senior citizens should not become a silent group deprived of digital benefits. It is our responsibility to help them bridge the digital gap, and be patient with them when they face difficulties catching up.
【1】What do the statistics show in Paragraph 2?
A.There are a small number of senior citizens in China.

【2】What does the author try to tell us?
A.Cash is no longer accepted in most shops.
B.It’s a must for everyone to have a health code.
C.Most elders need guidance on how to use the apps.
D.Many shops now refuse to offer service to the elderly.
【3】The elderly can’t enjoy digital benefits for the following reasons EXCEPT_____.
A.their living areas
B.their financial conditions
C.their relationship with children
D.their difficulty in learning new things
【4】Which word best describes the author’s attitude to the current situation of the elderly?
A.Positive B.Worried C.Negative D.Indifferent
27、Green lifestyle is becoming increasingly popular nowadays.【1】You don't have to completely change the way you live, you just need to make a few small changes. From recycling to green shopping, each small change you make can really make a difference. Here are some benefits of living a green lifestyle.
Help the environment. By being energy-efficient and using green products you can reduce your influence on the environment. You can help preserve our natural resources and reduce pollution.【2】. It does feel very rewarding when you start making positive changes and feeling as though you're making a difference to such an important cause.
Live a healthier life. If more people commit to being green then we'll be able to live in a healthier environment, with less pollution and better air quality. You're also more likely to make better choices when it comes to food and you could find yourself leading a more active lifestyle.Growing your own vegetables is a very healthy way to live as well as buying green, natural foods.Cycling and walking to places instead of using your car can have a big influence.【3】 .

Set realistic expectations.
Everyone wants something different. 【2】 As you learn these skills, it is important to be very clear about what you want and what it looks like. The goal here is to get you to feel good about being who you are and connecting with people.
【3】
The most effective way to overcome shyness is to change your focus from you to them. Remember the last time you were in a situation and you were nervous or shy? I'd be willing to believe you were focusing on yourself; how you looked, what you were going to say, or how different you were from everyone else. Sure, it's important to be aware of how you are being thought, but people always remember how you make them feel. 【4】 People that shine are focusing on delivering, serving and benefiting others in some way.

G.Some want to be on stage while others want to be comfortable in a business meeting.
29、 Some people say that friendship is the only channel through which human beings can ever experience the value of life. In our daily life, it is likely that you share some common interests with others — they may like the same sport, go to the same school or like the same kind of music as you do. Since you often meet them, they become your acquaintances. Although some people develop many acquaintances, only a few become their good friends in their lifetime because there are differences between acquaintances and friends.
It is said that true friendship begins when someone knows what you are really like, but still likes you anyway. A true friend shows loyalty from the very beginning of the relationship. A friend will go through challenges to help you without expecting anything in return. A “friend” today may probably become a “true friend” tomorrow when they get involved in unexpected circumstances together with you — for example, when you are going through a difficult experience and your friend is there to help you out. However, some acquaintances might leave you when you badly need their help. At this time, you can experience what true friendship is.
In our life, some people seem to go through life with plenty of friends. They may be funny or they may have a bright and pleasant personality. For these people, wherever they go, people seem to like them and welcome their company. But when they go through challenging life experiences, some of their friends are not there to help them. Therefore we can say some of their friends are not real friends and their friendship is just skin-deep.
However, others seem to go through life with no friends at all. They like to be alone, to travel by themselves or to do their own things. It’s a pity that few of these people find success in life because they have no friends. They lack the best gift in life — friendship.
【1】According to the passage, which of the following statements about acquaintances is TRUE?
A.They have all of the same interests as you do.
B.You seldom meet them in your life.
C.They are sure to become your good friends.
D.Not all of them can become your friends.
【2】According to the passage you may get to know the meaning of friendship better when you ________.
A.go to the same school as your friend
B.get into trouble
C.enjoy the same kind of music as your friend
D.see your friend often
【3】We know from the passage that ________.
A.it doesn’t matter whether one has friends or not
B.people with bright personality are easy to have friends
C.people without friends are always unhappy
D.it’s easier to lose a friend than to get one
【4】What does the underlined word “skin-deep” in the third paragraph mean?
A.Very deep. B.Not deep at all.
C.As precious as skin. D.Hidden under the skin.
【5】What’s the writer’s attitude towards people without friends in their life?
A.Interested. B.Angry.
C.Hopeful. D.Regretful.
