my left hand and fed about three feet of string.The yellow kite dangled22 the end of it,just above the wet grass.The wind gave the right chance,so I took off 23(run),my sneakers splashing rain water from the puddles,the hand clutching the kite end of the string abovemy head.It had been so long,so many years since Id done this,and I wondered if Id made a spectacle of24.I let the spool roll in my left hand 25 I ran,feeling the string cutting my right handagain as it went through.The kite was lifting behind my shoulder now,and I ran harder.The spool turned26(fast)and the glass string tore another cut in my right palm.Yet the pain 27 not slow medown.Finally,then,when I did stop to turn around and looked up,I smiled.High above,my kite was tiltingside to side like a pendulum(钟摆)，making that old paper-bird-flapping-wings sound 28 I alwaysassociate with winter mornings in Kabul.I had quit flying since a quarter of century ago,but suddenly I wastwelve again and 29 was there in my instinct came rushing back.Around,kids chased each other,and_30_(slide)on the grass.The air smelled of wet grass,smoke,and grilled meat.A time that I wished would stand still.Section BDirections:Fill

VirusA.tendency B.efficientlyC.deliverD.evolveE.exposingF.imagineG.continuously H.complicationI.comparisonJ.stimulateK.intentionsDigital technology can help and has helped us in the fight against the novel coronavirus.But as coverageand understandable public interest-and concern-about the outbreak has intensified,it seems wise first to lookat how the event is 31 some of technologys limitations both in and of itself and how we interpretwhat it can do for us.Three themes emerge.Technology is not immediate.There is a（n）32_ to believe that the recent rapid advances inprocessing power,algorithmic（运算法贝lj 的）development,machine learning and artificial intelligence can now_33_ almost instant answers to everything.The digital landscape has changed massively since theSARS outbreak in 2003.But while we may be able to do things more 34,some things still take timeand that is particularly true of a virus.There is no one size fits all here and,indeed,there are real dangers inbelieving that one analytical strategy and its particular use can be applied universally.Second,as viruses spread and 35_,so do the data sets around them.We are not dealing with asituation of simple garbage in,garbage out*but rather one where new information is emerging daily and thereis the further_36 that there were delays in early reporting of the outbreak.That means the results eventhe wisest medical experts can produce are also going to change.Also,as you might 37,theirmethodologies（方法论）vary.Third,a lot of data is being placed into the digital area,across social media,specialist sites and elsewhere.Here,the 38 with 17 years ago is especially great.But the 39 behind various postings aremany.Anyone might be able to access the data via a web browser-and its free availability is laudable（值得称赞的）but its intended audiences can be very different.In some cases,experts are looking to inform the publicbut in seems to others they are looking to contribute to and 40 the debate taking place amongthemselves.These goals are laudable and necessary,but they do not always coexist harmoniously.III.Reading Comprehension（41-55题，每题1 分；56-70题，每题2分；共45分）Section ADirections:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A,B,C and D.Fillin each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.In The Debunking（揭穿真相）Handbook,a short guide published in 2011,John Cook,at George MasonUniversity,and Stephan Lewandowsky,at the University of Bristol,looked at the world-view backfire effect,the idea that if a correction of a false claim disagrees with your world view,it strengthens the_41_.JasonReifler at the University of Exeter found this in his Iraq study,but he points out that the effect only appeared intwo out of five experiments.Whats more,although some later studies have seen similar results,many havent seen the effect at all.This suggests it is much_42_than Reiflers work suggested,which he thinks is fantastic news.But whatever you do,dont point this out,or turn to _43_(Youre wrong!”,Youre ignorant.).Instead,listen and ask questions that_44_why someone has those opinions(What makes you thinkthat?).The good news is that social events are_45_situations for correcting myths.Assuming there is atleast some trust between you,the other person will probably hear you out.And corrections from credible,trusted sources are more_46_.There?s also far more time to discuss the topic_47_than comparedwith,say,interactions on social media.The bad news is that even with all this in mind,you are still unlikely to_48_someone,especially ifyou are challenging their world view.Corrections that are totally different from ones world view areby-and-large ineffective,especially in conservative people.So why even_49_?Firstly,people are much less likely to spread false information if they are heldaccountable for it,says Reifler._50_your relatives9 false claims may make them think twice beforespreading nonsense on another occasion.And always_51_the other people in the room.Even if you do not change your Aunt Susans mind,you may sow a seed in your nieces,and nephews5 minds.Indeed,Cook thinks there is little chance of changing the minds of,say,the 7 per cent of people in the USwho are very_52_that global warming isnt happening at all.Instead,he thinks we should_ 53_themajority still open to persuasion.His studies show that people are less likely to fall for false arguments if theyare warned against them._54_,forewarn them about the problem of false balance in the media and theirviews wont change when they read an article full of false-balance quotes.Those who are not warned becomemore 55 their judgement.41.A.associationB.offensivenessC.probabilityD.misconception42.A.harderB.rarerC.more diverseD.more important43.A.reactionsB.judgmentsC.forecastsD.reasons44.A.revealB.avoidC.defineD.link45.A.frustratingB.excellentC.familiarD.occasional46.A.widespreadB.deliberateC.inevitableD.effective47.A.in personB.in detailC.on purposeD.on business48.A.encourageB.impressC.surpriseD.convince49.A.tryB.stopC.moveD.wait50.A.ValidatingB.InvestigatingC.QuestioningD.Understanding51.A.supportB.locateC.interviewD.consider52.A.awareB.happyC.sureD.disappointed53.A.make upB.look up toC.focus onD.set out on54.A.For instanceB.Whafs moreC.As a resultD.On the contrary55.A.surprised atB.doubtful ofC.curious ofD.annoyed atSection BDirections:Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinishedstatements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits bestaccording to the informa tion given in the passage you have just read.（A）At first,I didnt recognize the symptoms that we all had in common.Friends mentioned that they werehaving trouble concentrating.It wasnt burnout we still had energy.It wasnt depression we didnt feelhopeless.We just felt somewhat joyless and aimless.It turns out theres a name for that:languishing.Languishing is a sense of inactivity and emptiness.It feels as if youre muddling（应付）through your days,looking at your life through a foggy windshield.In psychology,we think about mental health on a spectrum（范 围）from depression to flourishing.Flourishing is the peak of well-being.Depression is the valley of ill-being.Languishing is the neglected middlechild of mental health.Its the emptiness between depression and flourishing-the absence of well-being.Youre not functioning at full capacity.Languishing dulls your motivation,disrupts your ability to fbcus,andgreatly increases the possibility that youH cut back on work.Part of the danger is that when youre languishing,you might not notice the lessening of delight or thedecreasing of drive.You dont catch yourself slipping slowly into aloneness;youre indifferent to yourindifference.When you cant see your own suffering,you dont seek help or even do much to help yourself.So what can we do about it?People who became more focused on their work managed to avoidlanguishing.Interrupted attention is an enemy of engagement and excellence.To go beyond languishing,giveyourself some uninterrupted time.It clears out constant distractions and gives us the freedom to focus.And trystarting with small wins by focusing on a challenge that matters to you-an interesting project,a worthwhilegoal,or a meaningful conversation.We still have a lot to learn about what causes languishing and how to cure it,but naming it might be a firststep.It could help to defbg our vision,giving us a clearer window into what had been an unclear experience.Itcould remind us that we werent alone:languishing is common and shared.By acknowledging that so many of us are languishing,we can start giving voice to quiet despair andlighting a path out of the emptiness.56.According to the passage,which definition best suits the word“languishing”?A.Staying in ones comfort zone.B.Having a vague view of ones future.C.Becoming weaker or failing to improve.D.Feeling exhausted and without hope.57.For those who are languishing,they are likely to.A.seek help when they feel theyre sufferingB.deny that they cannot work at full capacityC.give themselves some uninterrupted timeD.be indifferent to their lack of enthusiasm58.Which of the following is a potential solution to languishing?A.Removing it from the spectrum of mental health.B.Recognizing the reduction of delight and motivation.C.Improving attention span and eliminating distraction.D.Having a clearer idea about its cause and effect.59.Why is it significant to know that languishing is common and shared?A.We can continue to learn more about languishing.B.We can let the silent despair speak up and find a way out.C.We can see it as basically the same as depression.D.We can study it as the complete opposite of flourishing.(B)This Halloween,scare off evil spirits while protecting the earth!1.Create home-made costumes1Apart from the fact that theyre expensive,flammable and mostly unoriginal,shop bought Halloweenoutfits are a terrific burden on the environment.From the much-too-high amount of water that is used to createthem to the seven million costumes that will be thrown straight into the bin,and the microfibres released intothe water from the ones that do get washed there are PLENTY of reasons against shop buying.And lefs be frank,home-made costumes are far more unique and fun to create.For the scariest costumewe could possibly imagine,why not dress up as the earth on fire?2.Be considerate with your pumpkinsPumpkins are a wonderful Halloween tradition but can be more damaging to the environment t
