【答案】Dear Sir/Madam,
I’m a high school student from China, who will enter the English speech contest to be held by you this August. Learning that the event won’t take place as scheduled, I’m writing to enquire about it.
First of all, I wonder why it is that the contest fails to be held as planned. Does the outbreak of COVID-19 contribute to the change? Besides, is there any possibility that the contest will be canceled? If so, can I get a full refund of the registration fee I paid? Hopefully, you just put the contest off and will reschedule it for another proper date.
I have been looking forward to participating in the contest, and I would appreciate it if you could keep me informed of any change in its arrangement through email.
Best regards,
Li Hua

【题目】 People who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds.It's possible that being full of vim and vigor helps the body fight illnesses,say the researchers from Carnegie Mellon University(CMC)in Pittsburgh.
"We need to take more seriously the possibility that a positive emotional style is a major player in disease risk,"says psychologist Sheldon Cohen,the study's lead researcher.
In a previous study,Cohen and his colleagues found that people who tended to be cheerful and lively were least likely to develop sniffles,coughs and other cold symptoms.People who showed positive feelings were also less likely to mention symptoms to their doctors,even when medical tests detected those symptoms.
Those findings were interesting,but they didn't prove that a person's attitude affects whether he or she gets sick.Instead,it was still possible that a person's underlying personality is what matters.
Evidence suggests,for instance,that certain people are naturally more likely to be outgoing and optimistic,with high self-esteem and a sense of control over life.This would mean that who we are,not how we feel,ultimately decides our chances of catching colds.
To figure out which mattered more,personality or emotions,the researchers interviewed 193 healthy adults.The researchers talked to each person over the phone every evening for 2 weeks. They told the researchers about the positive and negative feelings they had experienced that day.
The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get infected.Their symptoms,however,differed depending on the types of emotions that they had reported over the previous fortnight.
Among those who reported good moods and had been infected with the flu virus,for example, 28 percent developed coughs and stuffy noses.On the other hand,those symptoms struck 41 percent of people who had been less positive.Scientists argue about whether negative emotions or positive emotions have a stronger effect on how healthy we are.For now,it can't hurt to look on the bright side more often than not!
【1】What is the text mainly about?
A.How to get rid of colds.
B.Attitude determines life.
C.Smiles turn away colds.
D.Different opinions about colds.
【2】The phrase"full of vim and vigor"underlined in Paragraph 1 probably means"
A.ignorantB.well-informed
C.energeticD.passive
【3】According to the finding,a leading factor of catching colds should be one's.
A.healthB.personality
C.qualityD.mood
【4】By saying the last paragraph,the writer intends to suggest
A.the saying-every coin has two sides
B.positive emotions are as good as negative emotions
C.it is not necessarily good for you if you always look at problems positively
D.it will be good for your health to always keep up an optimistic state of mind

【题目】 When a person dies, his body decays (腐烂). Skin and flesh disappear and as time goes on, only a skeleton is left. A mummy is the dead body of a person or an animal that has been preserved (保存) by wrapping cloth or other material around it.
Mummies have been found all over the world, most of them in Egypt. However, other cultures in South America and Asia also mummified their dead persons.

【题目】阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(不多于3个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
Decoding respirator cultures
As the global pandemic speeds up, many are wondering about the 【1】(effective) of masks and when it's appropriate to wear them. Most people from the East believe that 【2】(wear)a mask is essential to control the spread of the novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP). But people in the West generally would argue that, unless one is already ill, wearing a mask is simply 【3】(necessary).
In Eastern countries like China, mask-wearing is engrained in their cultures. In fact, people in the East wear masks not just to protect 【4】(they) from illness but also for a variety of other reasons.
In many Asian countries, masks are worn in many scenarios in daily life, such as doing housework 【5】 visiting patients in the hospital. They can give people the comfort of being protected.
In recent years, they are worn simply for cosmetic reasons. Young people in Japan, for example, wear masks as a fashion statement, expressing their personal style through unique designs and patterns.
In Asia, wearing a face mask is also 【6】 outward expression of group-oriented values.
【7】one’s face partially covered, one becomes part of a giant collectivist whole. 'People communicated their responsibilities to the social group of 【8】they were members, ' wrote Peter Baehr, a research professor in social theory at Lingnan University, Hong Kong. 'By disguising an individual’s face, it gave greater salience to collective identity. '
In Western countries, however, individual values are the most important.
As a citizen, it is one's duty to prevent the spread of illness by following proper hygienic procedures, such as washing one's hands and limiting one's contact with others. A face mask【9】 (reserve)only for those showing symptoms of illness.
Whether from the East or the West, social culture and peer pressure have played an important role in one's decision about whether or not to wear a mask. That's because human beings are social creatures who take into consideration what other members of society think of us. The most important thing is to respect others' opinions, no matter how 【10】(differ) they are.
