1．As a language learning enthusiast，I've come up with the best apps for learning English from the thousands of mobile apps out there.
Best for Pronunciation：ELSA Speak
ELSA Speak is probably the best mobile app around for helping you improve your English pronunciation.The app's greatest strength is its intensive AI feedback，but ELSA also provides mini-training sessions to really perfect your pronunciation.The AI analyzes your recordings based on pronunciation，intonation and fluency then points out exactly which parts sound inaccurate.

FuentU is a language learning app that teaches you English through authentic videos like news reports，movie scenes and interviews，with learner tools for all levels.Each clip has interactive subtitles so if you're not sure what a word means，you can hover over it and get in explanation.The app also gives video examples for each word so you can learn vocabulary in context.
Best for Practical Topics：Babbel
Babbel has you learn and practice English with realistic conversations that surround things that you're personally interested in.Lessons are short and consist of written and audio versions of the grammar featured in the lessons.Then you are able to complete practice exercises to solidify your understanding.

2．From Santa Barbara to Scotland，strangers are becoming friends by going on bike rides together.They get paired up by Cycling Without Age，an organization that helps seniors go for bike rides，even if they can't pedal themselves.
Hugh Lyon and David Lawrence，who are roughly 20 years apart in age，have been riding together for years.The 56-year-old Lawrence serves as a "pilot"，driving the trishaw—a bike with a passenger seat in the front that Cycling Without Age uses for their rides.They go for rides about once a week，often discussing the history of their town.
"Despite my deceased parents，it gives me a connection with people from an older generation，" said Lawrence， "and I enjoy spending time with them and hearing their stories."
The pair have formed a friendship outside of cycling.Lawrence said he calls Lyon often and goes to the gym with him to help him with exercises he can't do on his own.
Ole Kassow，who founded Cycling Without Age，said that's the power of the program. "The truly powerful thing about these bike rides is that they tie people and stories together to create new relationships，" he told CBS News. "In my friendships—and the ability to form new relationships at any age—are what define a good life，and often also a long and happy life."
John Boettner started the Santa Barbara chapter.He has one rule for passengers. "They say， 'What does it cost if I'm going to go for a ride？' I say， 'Here's what it costs：You have to wave.If you don't wave，I'm going to kick you out，'" he joked.He said he likes when they hit red lights，because it gives them a chance to connect with people on the road. "Driving the trishaw is the best advertisement for Cycling Without Age"，Boettner said， "When you take a 101-year-old woman for a bike ride and she holds your hand tight and says thank you and gives you a kiss on the cheek，it doesn't get any better than that."
（1）What did Lawrence benefit from Cycling Without Age？
A．Picking up forgotten stories.
B．Improving his health condition.
C．Understanding his parents' love.
D．Creating a relationship with seniors.
（2）Why did Ole Kassow mention "friendships"？
A．To share the pleasure of cycling.
B．To state the nature of happiness.
C．To show the value of the program.
D．To introduce the definition of a good life.
（3）What can we learn from Boettner's words in the last paragraph？
A．The program needs to be advertised.
B．Passengers have to pay for their rides.
C．Red lights connect people on the road.
D．Bike riders feel fulfilled by offering rides.
（4）What message does the passage convey？
A．A sweet frienship refreshes the soul.
B．Be a rainbow in somebody else's cloud.
C．Don't go through life，grow through life.
D．Happiness is a journey，not a destination.組卷：17引用：7難度：0.5 -
3．For anyone trying to lose weight，there's a truth we can all universally acknowledge that better health is often positioned as a numbers game.Hit the right number，and all your health problems will magically resolve，so the logic goes.Yet increasingly，science is revealing that losing weight may not be a silver bullet after all.In a mouse study published in the journal Science，looking specifically at an inflammatory（炎癥的） eye condition linked to obesity called macular degeneration（黃斑退化），researchers found the struggle for better health doesn't necessarily begin and end with weight loss.
Researchers conducted experiments on mice that were fed a high-fat diet for 11 weeks，making them gain weight.The mice were then put on a diet of low-fat food for 9 weeks，making them lose weight.Another group of mice only ate the low-fat diet as a control.Researchers shot lasers into the eyes of both the yo-yo dieter mice and the control mice to encourage atypical blood vessel（非典型性血管） growth，a mark of macular degeneration.
Among the mice that had gained and then lost weight，there was about 40 percent more atypical blood vessel growth than their stable diet peers.Driving the growth appeared to be macrophages（巨噬細(xì)胞）.In the yo-yo dieter mice，these cells had been reprogrammed to cause inflammation.Taken together，these cells appeared to have an outsize role in atypical blood vessel growth in the eyes.Meanwhile，in the mice fed only a low-fat diet，inflammatory changes were absent.The results suggest that eating a high-fat diet that causes weight gain，even if followed by weight loss，leaves an inflammatory mark on mouse macrophages.
The research comes during a period of renewed interest in anti-obesity drugs.But medicines that help people shed pounds do not treat inflammation linked to a history of weight gain. "How to engage these findings with medicine interventions is a challenge，" says Bapat，head of the research.
（1）Which of the following best explains "a silver bullet" underlined in paragraph1？
A．A workable solution.
B．A tough choice.
C．An ultimate objective.
D．A major challenge.
（2）How do researchers carry out the experiment？
A．By making comparison.
B．By listing examples.
C．By controling test methods.
D．By analyzing diet components.
（3）What can we learn about the research results？
A．Stable dieting drives the growth of macrophages.
B．Reprogrammed cells are to blame for weight gain.
C．Inflammatory changes are caused by the low-fat diet.
D．Losing weight doesn't resolve the inflammation tied to weight gain.
（4）What will the research focus on next？
A．Exploring ways of losing weight.
B．Tracking the history of weight loss.
C．Treating obesity-linked inflammation.
D．Boosting interest in anti-obesity drugs.組卷：16引用：5難度：0.5

9．Palm trees seemed to speed by the car window.Eight-year-old Katrina began to get nervous，the way she always did in new surroundings.She felt a thin shine of sweat above her lip in spite of the car's cool air. "The aquarium won't be crowded，I bet，and people are gonna notice me.I hate wearing this prosthesis leg （假肢）." She felt tears pinprick behind her eyes. "Not being normal is the worst."
Entering the Clearwater Marine Aquarium，around a comer of a tank，she noticed an animal that looked unusual. "Is that a dolphin with stump （假肢） instead of a tail？" she asked an aquarium staff.He nodded. "Yes，that's Winter.She's a very special dolphin." "What happened to her？" "This girl dolphin was found off the coast of Florida，caught in a crab trap.The ropes from the trap cut off the blood circulation to her tail.So she lost her tail，" Katrina caught her breath. "She's just like me.She's just like me." "But she struggled to survive.Now she wears a prosthetic tail part of the day to help her swim like a dolphin's supposed to swim." the staff continued， "Every day，Winter shows us anything is possible if we believe."
Katrina felt her heartstring was touched.She waved at Winter.Looking at Katrina，Winter raised her flipper （鰭），came to her and lifted her head. "She's swimming right into my arms，" Katrina said tearfully.They made eye contact.She seemed to be speaking to Katrina：We're the same.
Back home，all Katrina talked about was Winter.For two weeks，she cried and begged her mother to take her back to Clearwater.
Unfortunately，another blow hit Katrina.She fell on the hardwood floor at home and broke her other leg.Katrina was in constant leg nerve pain.After a through examination，the doctor explained bad news that she would need another surgery on her leg.Years of a living hell came back to her.
She started fearing surgery again and refused to take any.
