• 2．Teenager Jake Deham was skiing（滑雪） with his family in the USA when he fell over and lost one of his skis.His family didn't know that he had a problem.They kept on skiing.When they got to the foot of the mountain，there was no sign of Jake.
     Jake couldn't find his ski anywhere.In the end，he decided to take off his other ski and walk down the mountain.But he couldn't work out the right way to go.
     It was now getting dark and he was a long way from any place of safety.He knew that he might die that night in the cold temperatures.But Jake kept calm（鎮(zhèn)定）.At home，Jake watched a lot of programmes about living in difficult situations.He remembered the advice from these programmes and knew that he should build a hole in the snow.He made a hole and pointed it up the hill so the wind couldn't blow into it.Outside his hole，the temperature fell to a dangerous-15℃ that night，but inside it Jake was safe from the cold.
     But he had to get down the mountain.The TV programmes always said，" If you are lost，you should find someone else' s tracks（足跡） through the snow and follow them." "I wanted to live my life." remembers Jake."So I got up and I found some ski tracks and I followed those." He walked and walked and finally he saw lights.Nine hours after he lost his ski，he found a team of worker who came to save him.He was safe!
  His mum was very happy when she heard the news.Amazingly，Jake didn't even have to go to hospital.He got through the terrible experience without any injuries.

• 3．As data and identity theft becomes more and more common，the market is growing for biometric（生物測(cè)量） technologies—like fingerprint scans—to keep others out of private e-spaces.At present，these technologies are still expensive，though.
     Researchers from Georgia Tech say that they have come up with a low-cost device（裝置） that gets around this problem：a smart keyboard.This smart keyboard precisely measures the cadence（節(jié)奏） with which one types and the pressure fingers apply to each key.The keyboard could offer a strong layer of security by analyzing things like the force of a user's typing and the time between key presses.These patterns are unique to each person.Everybody uses a keyboard and everybody types differently.
     Therefore，the keyboard can determine people's identities through the tying pattern，and furthermore，whether they should be given access to the computer-no matter someone gets the password right or wrong.
  In a study describing the technology，the researchers had 100 volunteers type the word "touch" four times using the smart keyboard.Data collected from the device could be used to recognize different participants based on how they typed，with very low error rates.The researchers say that the keyboard should be pretty straightforward to commercialize and is mostly made of inexpensive，plastic-like parts.The team hopes to make it to market in the near future.
  
  （1）Why do the researchers develop the smart keyboard？

  
  A．To reduce pressure on keys.
  B．To improve accuracy in typing.
  C．To replace the password system.
  D．To cut the cost of e-space protection.
  （2）What makes the invention of the smart keyboard possible？

  
  A．Computers are much easier to operate.
  B．Fingerprint scanning techniques develop fast.
  C．Typing patterns vary from person to person.
  D．Biometric technologies are still expensive.
  （3）The smart keyboard can NOT

  .
  A．a(chǎn)nalyze the force of a user's typing
  B．collect the time between key typing
  C．recognize people s identities
  D．change a person's ty ping pattern
  （4）What do the researchers expect of the smart keyboard？

  
  A．It'll be environment-friendly.
  B．It'll reach consumers soon.
  C．It'll be made of plastics.
  D．It'll help speed up typing.
  （5）Where is this text most likely from？

  
  A．A diary.
  B．A guidebook
  C．A novel.
  D．A magazine.

• 4．The first national survey of the psychological impact of the novel coronavirus collected data between Jan 31 and Feb 10.It found that 35 percent of people suffer psychological stress，and the level of the stress was to do with various factors.
      According to the research，the stress level was associated with sex，age and education.Female showed higher psychological stress than male.People aged between 18 and 30 showed the highest level of stress.They can get much information from social media，which can easily cause stress.The elderly have also been psychologically impacted，since this widespread disease is most likely to kill older patients.Furthermore，people with higher education tended to have more stress for their knowledge of health.
      Further，people may have higher stress due to their jobs.It is evident that migrant workers have the highest level of stress among all workers because they worry about the virus carried in public transports when returning to their jobs，about work delays and loss of income as they stop working，and about job opportunities that may dry up before the cities they work in return to full operations.
      In addition，stress levels have something to do with region for its local medical resources，efficiency of public health system，prevention and control measures.For example，Shanghai is at high risk because of the large population of migrant workers，but the stress level is not in the high level.This may be because Shanghai has one of the best public health systems in China，according to the research.
      Ultimately，the prevention and control measures taken by the Chinese government have made people's stress decrease.Still，based on the research，psychologists suggested more attention be paid to young adults and migrant workers who have higher stress.
  
  （1）Which of the following can be the best title of the passage？

  
  A．Spread of coronavirus

  （2）What is the second paragraph mainly about？

  
  A．Stress level was related to sex，age and education.
  B．Young adults showed the highest level of stress.

  D．Educated people tended to have more stress.
  （3）According to the survey，which kind of people may suffer higher stress？

  
  A．Well-educated people.
  B．Migrant workers.
  C．The elderly.
  D．All above.
  （4）According to the research，why isn't Shanghai in the high level of stress？

  
  A．Shanghai is a developed city with good living condition.
  B．Shanghai enjoys one of the best public health systems in China.
  C．Shanghai has much more healthy persons than other cities.
  D．Shanghai has a large population of migrant workers.
  （5）What can we learn from the passage？

• 5．Where you sit and how you fit （1）

  For more than seventy years，researchers and teachers have studied the link between the place where students choose to sit in class and what they are like as people and learners.Where do you usually decide to sit？Have you ever really thought about the reasons for your decision？
     （2）

  But is this really true？Well，some researchers say it is not.In fact，shy students often choose the back row because it is far away from the teacher and they don't want to answer questions.At the back，students probably won't speak much，but in big classrooms.jye.ai can be hard to see the board and hear what the teacher is saying.This could be the reason why students who sit here often get lower grades on tests and exams.For students with poor eyesight or hearing，a seat at the back of the classroom is not a good choice.
     （3）

  However，they like watching and listening rather than joining in.These students are usually also very good at taking notes.Next time you miss a class，borrow notes from someone who sits here.On the sides of the classroom you will generally find modest and thoughtful people.These people usually get good grades in school and are interested in learning.
     （4）

  Then the statistics （統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)據(jù)） say you probably like your teacher.You probably also have a good relationship with your classmates.Caring，outgoing，and cheerful people usually sit in the middle.They are normally serious about learning and feel disappointed with low grades on tests and exams.
     （5）

  Students who sit here usually want to discuss things with the teacher and are often very interested in the subject.They want to be in the best place to see and hear everything the teacher does and says.The only problem with sitting here is that it can be difficult to see and hear what other students do and say in class.So，if you really want to hear what everyone says in class，choose a different place to sit.
  
  A.You probably sit right at the front of the class if you're longing for knowledge.
  B.Research suggests that the seat you choose in the classroom says a lot about you and your personality.
  C.Do you sit in the middle of the classroom？
  D.This means it's a good idea to sit in a different place every day.
  E.People often think that students who sit at the back are lazy.
  F.Students who sit at the side of the classroom are normally interested in class.
