【题目】Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point is) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
Optimism and pessimism represent your general attitude toward certain situations or to life in general. And your attitude about life may be more important to living than you think.
A new study suggests that people who are optimistic may live longer than those who are pessimistic. Researchers at Harvard University’s School of Public Health in Boston compared women with “a general expectation that good things will happen” to women who were less optimistic. They found that the optimists had a much lower risk of getting several deadly diseases, including cancer, heart disease, stroke, respiratory disease and certain types of infection.
Eric Kim, one of the study leaders, says optimism is connected with healthier behaviors and healthier ways of dealing with difficulty. Optimists tend to take better care of themselves by exercising, eating healthy foods and getting enough sleep.
When compared to the least optimistic women in the study, the optimistic women had:
an almost forty percent lower risk of dying from heart disease, stroke and respiratory disease
a fifty percent lower risk of dying from infection
and a sixteen percent lower risk of dying from cancer
Leslie Ralph, a clinical psychologist and counselor at the University of Arizona in Tucson, has several ideas about how to increase optimism.
She says each night plan to do two or three simple, enjoyable activities the next day, such as watching the sun rise, visiting a friend, dancing to a favorite song or reading a story with your child.
She also suggests that if your day starts badly, simply close your eyes for a moment and take a deep breath. When you open your eyes, imagine your day has started over. It’s like having your own restart button.
Offering praise or support to someone can also improve your own outlook. A smile and “thank you” from another person may help you feel more optimistic.

【题目】Some students from Washington Adventist University, near Washington, D.C. have been helping poor children with their schoolwork. But the students did not work with the boys and girls at a traditional school. Every Thursday night, they have been meeting at a laundromat, a place where people go to wash their clothes. At the same time, the students are carrying out a marketing plan they designed for the laundromat.
The program began with just five children, but has grown to about 20. Before the program works, the business was so bad that the owner had even considered closing his business, which is why the group came in. They were writing a marketing plan to give people a reason to keep coming to the laundromat. Then one student said, “There’re a lot of children hanging around. Why don’t we add teaching?”
The project is part of an international program called Enactus. It was started in the United States 40 years ago. The project is now at more than 1,700 colleges in 36 countries. It wants to give students experience before they graduate, so the project works with the community and with businesses.
Ms. Pichot, the head of the university’s business department, says they invite any business to come in. It’s a free workshop. Her students are working with other businesses in addition to the laundromat. She says the students help business owners increase their profits while gaining experience that they cannot get in school. They volunteer long hours.
Christine Sumampouw is completing her studies this year. She has spent about 1,000 hours as a volunteer. That is more than any other student in the group. She says she has learned a lot from volunteering.

A. They work part-time there.
B. The poor children can’t afford to go to school.
C. They want to increase the laundromat’s business.

【2】What do we know about Enactus?
A. Students offer help to businesses in need without being paid.
B. It aims to help students start their own business.
C. It is created by Washington Adventist University.
D. It is a program which only benefits businesses .
【3】What does Christine think of the project?

【题目】 It was the beginning of 2011. I had just finished filming the first season of Game of Thrones(《权利的游戏》). With almost no professional experience, I had been given the role of Daenerys Targaryen. The show was so successful that young girls would dress themselves up as Daenerys for Halloween.
And yet, terrified of the attention, terrified of trying to make good on the faith that the creators had put in me, I worked much harder.
On the morning of February 11, 2011, I was getting dressed in a gym when I started to feel a bad headache. I was so exhausted that I could barely put on my sneakers. I tried to ignore the pain, but I couldn’t. I reached the toilet and sank to my knees. A woman came to help me. Then everything became unclear. I only remember the sound of an ambulance.
That operation lasted three hours. When I woke, the pain was unbearable. After four days, they moved me out of the I.C.U. (重症监护室). But one day when a nurse asked me, as part of a series of cognitive (认知的) exercises, “ What’s your name?”, I couldn’t remember my name and I felt terrified: I am an actor; I need to remember my lines. Now, I couldn’t recall my name.
The phenomenon is called aphasia. Then I was sent back to the I.C.U. and, after about a week, I was able to speak and know my name. And I was also aware that there were people in the beds around me who didn’t make it out of the I.C.U. I was continually reminded of just how fortunate I was.
I rarely gave a thought to my health. Nearly all I thought about was acting. I thought of myself as healthy. Once in a while, I would get dizzy. When I was fourteen, I had a migraine (偏头痛) that kept me in bed for a couple of days. But it all seemed manageable — part of the stress of being an actor. Now I think I might have been experiencing warning signs of what was to come.
Anyway, there is something pleasant about coming to the end of Thrones. And I’m so happy to be here to see the beginning of whatever comes next.
【1】The author felt terrified after acting in the first season of Game of Thrones because _____.
①she felt nervous about the public attention.
②she had been criticized for her lack of experience.
③she was experiencing some warning signs of a serious illness.
④she wasn’t sure if she had performed well in Season 1.
A.①④B.②③
C.①②D.③④
【2】When did the author lose consciousness?
A.After she took an operation.
B.After a woman came to her rescue in a gym.
C.When trying to ignore a headache while working out.
D.When knowing many patients wouldn’t survive the illness.
【3】A patient who is suffering from aphasia ______.
A.cannot move his or her body
B.will fall into serious depression
C.must undergo brain surgery at once
D.is not able to remember things from the past
【4】What can you infer from the end of the passage?
A.The author feels very lucky to be an actress.
B.The author is quite confident about her role.
C.The author can’t go on acting due to the illness.
D.The author will pay more attention to her health.

Screen-addicted teens are unhappy
A new study explored the link between adolescent life satisfaction and screen time. Researchers found that teens who spent more time in front of screen devices -- playing computer games, using social media, texting and video chatting -- were less happy than those who invested more time in non-screen activities like sports, reading newspapers and magazines, and face-to-face social interaction.
Total screen avoidance doesn't lead to happiness either. The greater unhappiness among those with no screen exposure could be due to several factors, Twenge, the leading researcher said. “It could be that they are left out of the social scene of high school, that it’s very difficult to carry on friendships in high school these days without texting at all or being on social media.” It is also possible that those kids are outliers, Twenge said — teens with special needs or in special education, or those whose screens have been taken away from them by parents.
The key to digital media use and happiness is limited use. The happiest teens used digital media a little less than an hour per day. But after a daily hour of screen time, unhappiness rises steadily along with increasing screen time, the researchers report in the journal Emotion.
"Make effort to spend no more than two hours a day on digital media, and try to increase the amount of time you spend seeing friends face-to-face and exercising -- two activities reliably linked to greater happiness." Twenge said.
"By far the largest change in teens' lives between 2012 and 2016 was the increase in the amount of time they spent on digital media, and the following decline in in-person social activities and sleep," the leading researcher said. "The arrival of the smartphone is the most reasonable explanation for the sudden decrease in teens' psychological well-being."
