A positive influencer
Compared to most people with disabilities, Zhao Hongcheng is lucky. Born in 1990, a wheelchair (21) __________ (be) part of Zhao’s life since she was 1 year old due to a disease. However, it did not stop her from completing her college and graduate studies before becoming a white-collar worker in Shanghai, (22) __________ __________ her parents’ great support. And now, Zhao is a video content creator, who has over 84,000 followers on a video-sharing platform.
“I made my first video in 2019,” Zhao says, (23) __________ (add) that it was also the year she moved to Shanghai. “My original purpose was (24) __________ (find) an emotional outlet. I always encountered inconvenience (25) __________ (cause) by my wheelchair when going out, which made me feel sad. However, I barely had any disabled friends, so I had no one to talk to. I felt quite lonely.”
In 2019, the rising popularity of short videos inspired Zhao. “I felt that I should make some videos of (26) __________ I experienced in my daily life. If it went well, it could give people with disabilities references and suggestions, and if not, at least it would draw people’s attention to related issues,” Zhao says. To her great surprise, the video (27) __________ (view) more than 2,000 times on the first day. “(28) __________ made me feel that there were many things worth sharing in my life, and it also gave me a sense of mission,” she explains. (29) __________ her fourth video went viral (走紅), she continued to make short videos and, in 2021, became a full-time content creator on the platform.
Yet, most people with disabilities are not as lucky as Zhao. Zhao says education and employment are the two major obstacles for the disabled group around her. In addition, the construction of accessible facilities is still at a relatively early stage. “Shanghai is the city (30) __________ I have the best experience as a wheelchair user, but it still cannot guarantee that I can go out alone,” she says, adding that only with deep understanding and recognition can the system be implemented better.
Zhao hopes to be a bridge between the wider society and the disabled.

Less is More
Did you know that Americans have approximately three times the amount of space we have fifty years ago? Therefore, you’d think we’d have sufficient room for all of our possessions. However, that’s not the case. We’ve got triple the space, but we’ve become such (31) __________ consumers that we require even more. This phenomenon has resulted in significant credit card debt, enormous environmental footprints, and perhaps not (32) __________, happiness levels have failed to increase over the same half century.
I’m here to suggest a(n) (33) __________— that having less might actually be a preferable decision. Many of us have experienced, at some stage, the pleasure of possessing less. I propose that less stuff and less space can not only help you economize, but also (34) __________ your life. I recently started an innovative project to discover some creative solutions that offered me everything I required. By purchasing an apartment that was 40 square meters instead of 60, I (35) __________ saved $200,000. Smaller space leads to reduced bills and also a smaller carbon footprint because it’s designed around an edited collection of possessions, limited to my (36) __________ stuff. I’m really excited to live there.
How can we live more basically? Firstly, we must cut the unnecessary objects out of our lives without hesitation. To reduce (37) __________, we should think before we buy, and ask ourselves, “will it truly make me happier?” Secondly, we require space (38) _________. We want appliances that are designed for use most of the time, not for occasional use. Why own a six-burner stove when you rarely use even three burners? Finally, we need (39) __________ spaces and housewares. I combined a movable wall with transforming furniture to get more out of my limited space. Consider my coffee table. It increases in size to (40) __________ ten people. My bed simply pops out the wall.
I’m not saying, we should all live in tinier apartments, but consider the benefits of an edited life. When you return home and walk through your front door, take a moment to ask yourselves, “Could I do with a little life editing? Will that give me more freedom and more time?”
III. Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
Loans at public libraries fell dramatically during the pandemic (疫情), while website visits rose. If the service is to (41) __________ further cuts, it needs users.
Libraries are romantic yet plain places. The romance is that of reading, and the wealth of human imagining and learning that is (42) __________ in them. The plain side of libraries is more (43) __________. This is the world of buildings, shelving, books, library cards, computers—and people with bodies that (44) __________ space as well as minds that can be opened. It would be hard to find anyone who actively (45) __________ libraries, and question the principles of self-improvement that they stand for. But when it comes to (46) __________, Britain’s libraries are on less solid ground. The sector has been cut (47) __________ in the past decade, with around 800 libraries across England disappearing.
The first Covid lockdown caused a new (48) __________ of interest in reading, as the idea took hold that people forced to stay at home would spend more time with their noses in books — both finding out more about the virus and escaping from it. But the latest data regarding libraries is (49) __________ for anyone who values them as bricks-and-mortar (實(shí)體店) places to go. The number of books borrowed in the year ending in March 2021 was 72.9m, down 56% on the previous year. Physical visits also (50) __________, from 214.6m to 59.7m, compared with the fact that website visits grew by 18% to 154.7m. Of course, this is the behavior that one would expect during a pandemic. Many libraries were closed during this period, when people were (51) __________ from unnecessary mixing.
Private libraries at home, whether large collections or single, untidy bookshelves, appear to be (52) __________, with more ones springing up. But the hope must be that visits and loans at public libraries will soon return to their former level too. Like any other service, libraries need users. And while booksellers might in one sense be regarded as rivals (競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手), (53) __________ the vast majority of those involved in the trade, from publishers to poets, are library lovers—as can be seen from the volumes they have inspired.
This has something to do with the romantic notion of the reader as (54) __________, with every book a door to a new store of feeling or understanding. But it also shows the recognition that if books are to form part of our (55) __________ life, there must be space in public for them. Books can be treasured possessions, but there is also something special about a copy that arrives in your hands having passed through those of others — and that will go on being passed between strangers who share your curiosity.

Section B
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
The student arrived early, sat front and center, and stood out in my classroom in more ways than one. I’d say that he was about 40 years older than his classmates in my undergraduate communications class. He eagerly jumped into class discussions, with his humor and wisdom of experience. And he was always respectful of the other students’ perspectives, as if each of them were a teacher. Jerry Valencia walked in with a smile — and he left with one too.
“These students gave me the confidence that I didn’t need to feel bad about my age,” Valencia says.
One day, I spotted Valencia on campus. He said he would have to stop taking classes that semester and reapply for next year. By then, he hoped to have earned enough money from construction jobs and have his student-loan papers in order. But he said he was still coming to campus to attend events or see friends. He asked seriously whether he could still sit in on my communications class.
Sure, I said. But he wouldn’t get any credit.
No problem, he said.
Soon there he was again, back at his old desk, front and center, jumping into our discussions on how to find and tell stories in Los Angeles — a 63-year-old man with as much energy and curiosity as any of the youngsters in class. For an assignment on changing neighborhoods, Valencia wrote about a favorite local chain restaurant that was “unceremoniously closed.” He called it a theft of childhood. “It is almost as if someone has stolen that childhood and rudely replaced it with a slippery hill where everything they treasure will slide away,” he wrote.
A lot of Valencia’s classmates apparently knew he couldn’t afford that semester’s tuition but was still doing the homework. “Here he is, willingly taking a class for the delight of it and benefit of learning,” says Jessica Espinosa, a 25-year-old junior. Afterward, I overheard Valencia wanted to stay in school until he earned a master’s degree, but it had taken him 12 years to finish community college, so he had a long way to go. He had earned his associate of arts degree over the summer, then transferred to LA to start on his bachelor’s.
There is something splendidly unreasonable about Valencia’s determination to get a four-year degree and then a master’s. At his current pace, he’ll be 90 when he finally hangs all that paper on the wall. But that doesn’t seem especially relevant. He’s found all the youthful energy and academic opportunity stimulating. Valencia’s grade in my class this semester will not show up on his transcripts (成績(jī)單). But I’m giving him an A — and in the most important ways, it counts.
56. What made Valencia different from his classmates according to Para. 1?
A. He was an early bird to attract other students’ attention.
B. He took pride in his age, for he often wore a smile on his face.
C. He was eager to draw his conclusion in the communications class.
D. He may often share his wise and humorous ideas in the discussion.
57. According to the author, Valencia continued to attend classes because _________.
A. he got enjoyment and treasured the chance of learning
B. he needed the credits to further study a bachelor’s degree
C. he desired to attend events and have an A on his transcripts
D. he wanted to keep up with his classmates by learning hard
58. Which of the following best describes Valencia?
A. modest and independent B. energetic and generous
C. considerate and intelligent D. enthusiastic and motivated
59. The passage mainly tells us that________________.
A. teachers like diligent and highly-motivated students
B. efforts will be paid off as long as we are determined
C. it is never too late to learn even though we start a little late
D. getting an A counts when it comes to learning at a higher level
(B)
World Book Day was created by UNESCO on 23rd April 1995 as a?worldwide celebration of books and reading. It is marked in over 100 countries around the globe.?In an effort to move celebrations of reading into the evening and focus more on adults instead of children, World Book Night starts in the UK in 2011.

World Book Night is about encouraging more people to become readers. By participating on 23 April, whether on your own or with others, you’ll be playing a part in contributing to our mission of coping with life’s big challenges through the proven power of reading.
What are the benefits of reading for pleasure?
l 19% of readers say that reading stops them from feeling lonely.
l Higher literacy skills are associated with a range of positive societal benefits, including having a stronger sense of belonging to society and being more likely to trust others.
l Studies have found that reading for pleasure enhances empathy (共情), understanding of the self, and the ability to understand one’s own and others’ identities.
l Regular readers for pleasure reported fewer feelings of stress and depression than non-readers, and stronger feelings of relaxation from reading than from watching television or engaging with technology intensive activities.
l …
60. What is the purpose of the “World Book Night”?

A. BOOKS B. IMPACT C. RESOURCES D. GET INVOLVED
(C)
There’s nothing quite like the rush of recognition that comes from seeing a familiar face. Scientists have found it very difficult to explain how we identify well-known faces — or how that process differs from the way we perceive unfamiliar ones.
They have long known that the brain contains a network of areas that respond selectively to faces as opposed to other kinds of objects like feet, cars, smartphones. They also knew that humans process familiar and unfamiliar faces very differently. For example, we excel at recognizing pictures of familiar faces even when they are shot in poor light or at odd angles. But we struggle to recognize even slightly altered images of the same face when it is unfamiliar to us: two pictures of a stranger we’ve never seen before, for instance, shown from different perspectives or in dim light.
Now researchers at The Rockefeller University have begun to unravel the mystery of how the brain recognizes familiar faces. They turned to macaques (獼猴), close evolutionary cousins whose face processing networks are better understood and more easily studied than our own.
Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (磁共振成像), Landi and Freiwald measured the animals’ brain activity as they responded to pictures of other monkeys’ faces. Those faces fell into three categories: personally familiar ones belonging to monkeys that the macaques had lived with for years; visually familiar ones whose pictures they had seen hundreds of times; and totally unfamiliar ones. For comparison’s sake, they also showed the monkeys pictures of personally familiar, visually familiar, and unfamiliar objects.
The researchers expected the macaque face processing network to respond in much the same way to the first two types of faces. But instead, the entire system showed more activity in response to the long-time personally familiar faces. Faces that were only visually familiar, meanwhile, caused a reduction of activity in some areas.
“The whole network somehow distinguishes personally familiar faces from visually familiar faces,” says Landi.
Even more surprisingly, the faces of animals whom the macaques had known for years caused the activation of two previously unknown face-selective areas.
One is located in a region of the brain associated with so-called declarative memory, which consists of facts and events that can be consciously recalled. The other area lies in a region associated with social knowledge, such as information about individuals and their position within a social class — “a specific form of memory,” Freiwald says, “that is highly developed in primates (靈長(zhǎng)類動(dòng)物), and certainly in humans.”
63. According to Paragraph 2, which of the following statements is true?
A. The network of areas in the brain can respond equally to faces and to other objects.
B. We can hardly identify the picture of people with makeup even if we know them well.
C. People are better at recognizing pictures of familiar faces than those of unfamiliar ones.
D. Pictures of familiar faces are hard to be recognized if they are taken in the dim light.
64. The word “unravel” (paragraph 3) means “ ”.
A. begin to fail or collapse
B. investigate something complicated
C. undo something to make it separated
D. unwind something wrapped around another object
65. Which of the following statements is true according to the researchers’ findings?
A. You store some social knowledge in your declarative memory.
B. Your friends’ faces reduce the activity in some parts of the brain.
C. A passer-by’s face can activate two face-selective areas in your brain.
D. Your brain responds differently to your parents’ faces and to pop stars’ faces.
66. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A. What face recognition is
B. How the brain recognizes familiar faces
C. What methods scientists use in the research
D. How people understand face processing network

An Aurora (極光) Adventure in Norway
Beyond the cottage windows the world is white and still. Snow-covered mountains stretch to the sea. It’s only 2 p.m., but already the light is fading, bathing the scene in a mysterious blue.
(67) ____________________ But instead of joining an organized and pricey aurora trip with a tour guide, I’m here on a DIY long weekend with friends.
We rented a riverside house in the tiny fishing village of Oldervik. (68) ____________________ So we go back to the comfort of indoor space. The silence here is so complete that we can hear the gentle sound of snow falling from the roof.
Exciting activities, such as dog sledding and reindeer adventures, are easy to arrange. (69) ____________________ But the striking beauty of the landscape and the sense of life being lived in slow motion, make us just want to stop for a while.
At Oldervik, it’s possible to catch the aurora anytime from September to April. The best time is from mid-November to mid-January, when the sun never appears. With cloudy skies we have no luck so far but on our last night, at the first sign of clouds clearing, we got into the car and hadn’t driven far when, with great excitement, we spotted a strange glowing arc (弧形) crossing the road like a milky rainbow.

To the naked eye (肉眼), the lights are not the bright greens and blues cameras capture on long exposures, but it’s fascinating none the less. The temperature during this time has fallen to –10℃ but we don’t feel it as we lie on the ground, gazing up and never wanting to leave.
IV. Summary Writing
Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
71. Fatigue
Fatigue is a feeling of being extremely tired. Basically, there are three types of fatigue, physical, pathological (由疾病引起的), and psychological. As you might suspect, each differs significantly from the others.
When you exercise your body, you produce waste products. Muscles, for example, release lactic acid (乳酸) into the blood; cells dump in carbon dioxide. When these wastes reach a certain level in the blood, the brain is informed and your activity level drops. Excess wastes in the muscles may produce soreness. The solution to this type of fatigue is simple — rest. That should refresh you; if it doesn’t, another cause should be sought.
Have you ever become involved in so many activities that you had to be in two places at once? This is what happens when your body has a disease. The cells are overused and cannot keep up with both fighting the disease and keeping you active. The result is fatigue. Some communicable diseases like the flu and colds are “well” known for draining your energy. Other non-communicable diseases, like anemia (貧血), drain you because you are lacking an important body ingredient. Being overweight can cause pathological fatigue. It should be obvious that this type of fatigue is not going to go away without treatment. In a way, pathological fatigue is a lifesaver. It lets you know something is wrong and that you need rest.
Here is the most common type of fatigue. Almost everybody experiences it now and then. Often, the cause is an emotional war you are having with yourself or those around you. Some of these familiar factors can bring on psychological fatigue: worries, stress, lack of exercise, boredom, depression. If you know someone with psychological fatigue, would you advise him to rest? No way! That might be fine for our other types of fatigue, but for this one, it’s deadly. If you are ever going to be able to cope with stress, depression, or worry, you need oxygen in your cells and a more optimistic attitude. Get out of the chair and do something! Believe it or not, many people throw themselves into physical labor like cleaning to “de-fatigue” themselves. If you find yourself in a particularly stressful situation that you can’t physically escape, escape mentally. When fatigue continues, maybe you need to get to the root of the problem.

Section B
Directions:?In Section B, you will hear two passages and one longer conversation, and you will be asked several questions on each of the passages and the conversation. The passages and the conversation will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one is the best answer to the question you have heard.
Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
Is your family interested in buying a dog? A dog can be a happy addition to your family, but if you choose the wrong kind of dog, the consequences can cause you a lot of trouble.
Families should sit down and thoroughly discuss the problems involved before buying a dog. Even if the children in your family are the ones who want the dog, the parents are the ones who are really responsible for seeing that the animal is properly cared for. If you don’t know much about dogs, it’s a good idea to go to the library or the ASPCA for books about various kinds of dogs, as well as books about how to train a puppy. In reading about the different breeds, you should know that a dog described as very alert may be too energetic. When a book describes a dog as an ideal hunting dog, it probably means that the dog won’t be happy living in a small apartment. Dog breeds vary in popularity as the years go by. One of the most popular dogs these days is the German shepherd, this is because it provides protection as well as companionship. The family should be warned that these dogs grow up to be very big, and may be too powerful for children to handle. If space is limited, a toy dog may be a good choice. These dogs are very small and easy to train. They don’t need to be walked daily, since they can exercise in the space available in the home.
(Now listen again, please.)
Questions:
11. Who was really responsible for the dog’s welfare?
12. Why is the German shepherd a popular dog according to the speaker?
13. What is the passage mainly about?
Questions 14 through16 are based on the following lecture.
Play is very important for humans from birth to death. Play is not just for children. It is a form of freedom and connection that can tap into your creativity, and can allow you the chance to find your inner child. I have collected the top four benefits of play here.
Play can stimulate you to think differently. It can go against all the rules and change the same old boring way of doing things. Walt Disney was devoted to play, and his willingness to oppose the common wisdom changed the world of entertainment. The next time you’re stuck in a fixed and boring way of life, pull out a box of colored pencils, and invite your inner child out, and break free. You’ll be amazed that the way you’re thinking shifts to new worlds of discovery.
Play can bring greater joy into your life. What do you think the world would be like if every human spends time each day on play? I bet just asking you this question has brought a smile to your face. Play creates laughter, joy, entertainment and a feeling of inner peace. Starting today, try to get 30 minutes each day to engage in some form of play, and watch your joy factor rise.
Play is known to reduce stress. Studies show that as humans, play is part of our nature. We have the need to play because it is instinctive and basic to human existence. With regular play, our problem solving and adaptive abilities will be in much better shape to handle this complex world.
Play can stimulate the imagination, curiosity and creativity. Research shows that play is both a hands-on and minds-on learning process. It produces a deeper, more meaningful understanding of the world and its possibilities. We begin giving meaning to life through story-making and playing out various possible situations.
(Now listen again, please.)

Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.
W: Robert, I haven’t seen you on WeChat for a long time. What happened?
M: My dad made a deal with me. He said he would give me ¥100 if I didn’t use WeChat for two months.
W: Really? But you love WeChat, don’t you?
M: Not so much now. In the past, I usually spent at least an hour on WeChat every day, but now I realize that it is really a waste of time.
W: So how do you keep in touch with your friends now?
M: I call them. Honestly speaking, I don’t think all the friends on WeChat are really true friends. I read a report on a girl posting on her WeChat that she got lost during her trip. You know what? No one seemed to care about what she said. Someone even joked about her being very silly. Only one girl asked if she was feeling all right.
W: That’s so sad. How will you deal with your free time this summer since you won’t use WeChat?
M: I think I will do some volunteer work. I want to help in a nursing home, spending some time with the old there.
W: You can also take good advantage of the newly built community center. The library has a wide collection of books. The swimming pool has 8 wide lanes, and the gym offers training courses.
M: Sounds like fun to me. I will surely have a busy and colorful summer.
