【题目】 Teenagers may not know the name Kevin Mayer, but he's about to play an outsize role in their lives.
The longtime leader of the Walt Disney Company just became the CEO of TikTok (抖音).In doing so, Mayer will lake charge of an app whose influence over a lot of people has made it one of the most influential ,although controversial(有争议的) ,platforms of the era.
Mayer has been with Disney since the early 1990s—minus a period as the CEO of Playboy.com—and he’s helped to acquire some important brands in film industry. More recently he's become known for his key role in the launch of the ll-important Disney Plus streaming service.
Mayer was thought to be among the most obvious potential successors to outgoing CEO Bob Iger, but he was passed over for Bob Chapek,who ran Disney' theme parks unit.
Mayer's departure from Disney may not be a surprise,but his move to TikTok is unexpected. The app, owned by China-based ByteDance, is at a crucial moment in its short history—seeing enormous growth during the pandemic lockdowns but facing increasing criticism over its data-collection practices. As it rises in influence ,the company will surely face a growing drumbeat of intense media and strict monitoring.
In contrast, Disney has never been more delicate, with the coronavinus pandemic having broken nearly all of its core business units, from the close down of theme parks and movie theaters to ongoing interruptions to its production schedules. Mayer,whatever else is motivating the move, is hopping( 跳) to another position at a proper time.

【题目】 Although you can possibly get by as a tourist in weeks, mastering a language is a long-term commitment taking years, not months. The FSI has classified languages in degrees of difficulty for English speakers. Chinese takes approximately 88 weeks or 2,200 hours ranking top 5 along with Arabic, Korean and Japanese.
Each Chinese dialect is effectively another language but Mandarin(Putonghua in Chinese, which means the common language)is considered the official tongue in modern China. They all share roughly one evolving writing system, referred to as written language invented for administering a large, diverse empire.
To complicate(使复杂)the matter further, there are two main types of written Chinese characters under the same writing system: the traditional Chinese used in Hong Kong and Taiwan and the simplified Chinese in mainland China. For example, fly is written as 飛 in traditional Chinese and 飞 in simplified Chinese. They’re basically the same character written in two different ways but pronounced differently when spoken in different dialects.
Each written word when spoken is mutually incomprehensible between a Mandarin speaker in Beijing and a Cantonese speaker in Hong Kong. If you think that’s odd, consider our number system: the symbol “9” is universally recognized but it’s pronounced “nine” in English and “devet” in Slovenian.
Every word must be memorized separately as you can’t guess its pronunciation from the script-but one could say the same of English if you consider plough, dough and tough.
Meanwhile, dictionaries list words according to stroke(笔画)count. These go from one to over 60 strokes. The archaic character zhé- which appropriately, means “verbose” - has 64 strokes.
And then there are the pronunciation challenges. There are four tones in Mandarin: high pitch (say G in a musical scale), rising pitch(like from C to G), falling(from G to C)and falling low then rising(C to B to G)- and if you think that’s difficult, there are nine tones in Cantonese. In Mandarin, there is a whole poem, “The Lion-Eating Poet in the Stone Den” with just the syllable “shi” repeated 107 times in various tones. In other words, if you are tone-deaf you might as well give up now.
【1】What do all Chinese dialects have in common?
A.They were invented by the emperor.
B.They have the same writing system.
C.They evolve in the same way.
D.They serve the same purpose.
【2】Why does the author mention the symbol “9” in Paragraph 4?
A.To prove different pronunciations of Chinese dialects
B.To indicate the similarities in all languages.
C.To show that Chinese is an odd language.
D.To compare English with Slovenian.
【3】What challenge does the author think is difficult to overcome?
A.Complicated scripts and strokes.
B.Different types of characters.
C.Various tones.
D.Too many dialects.
【4】What is the main idea of this passage?
A.Chinese has different dialects.
B.Chinese is very difficult to learn.
C.Chinese is an ever-developing language.
D.Chinese sounds like music and poems.

【题目】 When we use the term “disability,” many people think about those obvious disabilities like blindness. However, disabilities also include a number of other conditions that typically are invisible (无形) to others such as hearing problems and sleep disorders. 【1】 For example, someone with sclerosis (硬化症) looks “normal” but has to use a parking space for people with disabilities.
No one really knows for sure whether someone has an invisible disability unless it is disclosed (公开). The decision about whether to disclose an invisible disability can weigh heavily on an individual, making social and work situations especially challenging. The burden of hiding a disability creates stress in social and work situations that might affect health and well-being badly.
【2】 It also increases the possibility that the person will find and develop a social support network with others who might have similar conditions or experiences.
Despite the benefits of disclosing, research reports that individuals with invisible disabilities often do not disclose their conditions. 【3】 Reasons might be as follows. First, even if protected by law from discrimination, they still face potential prejudice from others. Second, when someone who “looks normal” says he has a disability and requests special services, people might question whether the disability really exists. 【4】 Sometimes, people might experience the symptoms without realizing.
【5】 They must carefully weigh the potential benefits of not disclosing against the cost to health and well-being. We should be aware of the unique challenges facing people with invisible disabilities and put ourselves in their shoes.
A.Invisible disabilities are more difficult to cure.
B.These conditions can make everyday activities difficult.
C.Individuals with invisible disabilities should make wise decisions.
D.On the contrary, disclosure relieves the stress of hiding the condition.
E.They might assume the person is only trying to gain special privileges.
F.Otherwise, people with invisible disabilities should disclose their conditions.
G.This is especially true if they are young and have recently acquired the disability.

【题目】 Bees and butterflies are active during the daytime. They get a lot of attention for their roles as pollinators(传粉者).But moths(蛾)aren't given the prominence they deserve.
Actually, moths are seen much less often, because they're active at night. Moth bodies often seem furry. Pollen—a yellow powder in the center of most flowers, from one flower sticks to their bodies and falls off when they move to other flowers. Scientists studied insects around nine ponds on farmlands in the United Kingdom. They visited these ponds once a month from March to October.
They studied three groups of insects: moths, bees that normally work together, like honey bees, and flying insects which work alone, such as butterflies. At the ponds, the scientists caught these flying insects and died to collect pollen from their bodies. In all, the scientists checked 838 moths, 632 other insects which work alone, and 1,548 honey bees.
By studying the pollen they collected, the scientists were able to see which plants the insects had visited. The moths had pollen from 47 different kinds of plants, including seven plants that bees don't normally visit. The honey bees had pollen from 46 different kinds of plants. The other insects that work alone had visited 45 different kinds of plants. Richard Walton, who led the study, says that bees usually choose the plants with the most nectar(花蜜)and most pollen. However, moths pollinate many different plants, filling in the gaps left by the daytime pollinators.
Not only do moths pollinate plants, they also provide important food for birds and bats.
But, like many other insects, moth numbers have dropped greatly in the last 50 years, mainly because of pesticides and the loss of natural lands. Just like bees and butterflies, moths are worth protecting. "Moths are by no means less important," says Dr. Walton.
【1】What does the underlined word probably mean in paragraphl?
A.Praise.B.Chances.
C.Concerns.D.Future.
【2】What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A.Moths and other insects' living habits.
B.Research on insects' spreading pollen.
C.Classification of insects by scientists.
D.The ways in which moths carry pollen.
【3】Compared with bees, which best describes moths?
A.They are less choosy.B.They eat less in the daytime.
C.They are more diverse.D.They carry more pollen.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A.Moths Pollinate Plants Strangely
B.Moths Are More Vital Than We Think
C.Moths Help Bees to Pollinate Plants
D.Moths Visit Some Flowers Bees Skip
