BeethovensMoonlight（奏鸣曲）being put in a video game.To be clearer,I was a terrible kid,living in the mean streets of Philadelphia,where I frequently gotinvolved with street gangs（街头混混）and did horrible things I regret today.I was failing out of highschool and had no future prospects（前途）.The only music type I listened to at the time was rap andR&B,but classical music never crossed my ear.I remember playing a game one day,and in order to get to the next part of the game,the lead character,Jill,has to discover a page or two of sheet music for the piano in order to open a secret passage toprogress through the game.Once obtained,the game fades out and pops out a new scene where Jill playsthe piano.Being in complete awe,I had no idea what these feelings were and admittedly didnt want itto stop.20 seconds or so later,the short clip of music stopped and my face was wet from tears that drippedfrom my eyes.I didnt know what was going on and was severely confused.All I knew was that I had toreplay that scene over and over again,not knowing who Beethoven was or that it was a much longer andsatisfying piece.My last year of high school,I wasnt expected to graduate but I had the opportunity to select amusic elective（选修课程）.It was then that I realized that classical music chose me and that I hadthe gift for transferring emotion through classical composition.Everything became so much clearer andfor some reason higher learning other subjects,including physics and chemistry,became interesting andeasy.It was as if my brain had been turned on and I began to appreciate everything and everyone aroundme.Without classical music,I would be like 90%of my friends back in Philadelphia,or a non-productivemember of society.Classical music saved my life.24.Which word can best describe the authors

seconds.D.Setting up a new scene for the next player.26.What changed the authors life?A.His strong brainpower.B.His last year in high school.C.His appreciation for Beethoven.D.His encounter with

Royal Society for the Preventionof Cruelty to Animals（RSPCA）in the city of Chelmsford after its legs became tangled（缠绕）in thestraps of a disposable（一次，性的）mask for up to a week.The animal welfare charity was alerted afterthe bird was spotted,motionless（动不动 的）but still alive,and they took it to a wildlife hospitalfor treatment before its release.The biggest impact may be in the water,with green groups alarmed at the flood of used masks,latex（乳胶）gloves and other protective gear finding their way into already polluted seas and rivers.Conservationists in Brazil found one inside the stomach of a penguin after its body was washed up on abeach,while a dead pufferfish was discovered caught inside another off the coast of Miami.French campaigners Operation Mer Propre found a dead crab trapped in

media recently.So what isVersailles literature?Actually the term has nothing to do with the French palace,nor with literature.It came fromTheRose of Versailles,a Japanese manga series about aristocratic（贵族的）life at the palace of Versaillesin France in the late 18th century,and was coined by a Chinese influencer earlier this year.Known ashumblebragging,it is a boast（夸耀）disguised as a complaint.“I have too many houses.How can I decidewhich one to decorate?”and I thought I lost weight this morning.So disappointed when I realized itwas because I took off the huge diamond ring my

humblebragging is a strategy in pursuit of respect,because it draws attentionto ones accomplishments in a circuitous way.However,studies on social media users show that humblebragging as a self-promotion strategy doesnot work.In the essay Humblebragging：A distinct and ineffective selfpresentation strategy,theUniversity of North Carolina researcher Ovul Sezer and Harvard University scholars Francesca Gino andMichael Norton concluded from their research that humblebraggers are perceived more negatively thanstraight braggers due to the formers insincerity.The critical factor differentiating the two groupsof people is sincerity.People dont like braggers,but they at least see them as more sincere thanhumblebraggers,said Francesca Gino.So,how can we annoy humblebraggers back?Just pretend you dont get whatever they try to show off,a netizen advised,And respond with genuine sympathy for their complaints.32.Which of the following statements is typical ofaVersailles literature”？A.You know who my father is?My father is Li Gang.B.Got five offers to date.Im at a loss which to choose.C.It5s a headache how to make my son tidy up his room regularly.D.Im fed up with living in the countryside with no shopping malls around.33.What is the psychology behind humblebragging?A.To win others sympathy.B.To earn others5admiration.C.To show his/her sincerity.D.To mask his/her complaint.34.What does the underlined word circuitous in paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Roundabout.B.Straightforward.C.Ambiguous.D.Double-edged.35.What cant be inferred from the passage?A.Braggers are relatively more sincere than humblebraggers.B.Humblebragging is an artificial appearance of being humble.C.To respond with real sympathy will discourage humblebraggers.D.If you want to be perceived positively?try using Versailles literature.第二节（共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。Time Management TipsFor students who are new to online learning,like
