2.Actors Keira Knightley and Kristen Bell have both commented on their worries about using Disney princesses as role models for their children.
On a famous talk show,Knightley said her daughter (who was born in 2015)was "banned" from watching Cinderella,which Disney produced as a cartoon in 1950 and a live-action film in 2015. "Cinderella waits around for a rich guy to rescue her.Don't.Rescue yourself!Obviously."
Knightley added that she had also forbidden The Little Mermaid,the 1989 cartoon. "This is the one that I'm quite annoyed about because I really like the film.I mean,the songs are great,but do not give up your voice for a man.Well,that's a little difficult to handle,but I'm keeping to it."
Bell,the star of Frozen,expressed her disapproval of the Snow White fairy tale,which became a classic Disney cartoon in 1938.In an interview with parents,Bell said: "I look at my girls and ask, 'Don't you think it's very unusual that Snow White didn't ask the old witch why she needed to eat the apple?Or where she got that apple?' I say, 'I would never take food from a stranger,would you?' And my kids respond, 'No!' And I think I'm doing something right."
Bell who played a Disney princess in Frozen,said she also used the story to illustrate issues about permission.She says that she asked her children: "Don't you think that it's very strange that the prince kisses Snow White without her permission? …Because you cannot kiss someone if they're sleeping!"
Bell later responded to criticism on social media.To one user she wrote: "Everything is a message to our children because they are sponges(海綿) that soak up everything and are learning how to be adults through what they see.I want my girls to see and practice critical thinking and respectful behavior."
(1)Why did Knightley stop her daughter from watching The Little Mermaid?

3.The Israeli farmers who pioneered the revolutionary technology known as drip irrigation weren't trying to solve one of the world's most urgent problems.They were just trying to survive.They lived in the desert,and they didn't have enough water to grow their crops.
In its simplest form,it was little more than a pipe with holes in it.But behind each hole was a hi-tech dripper that let out just the right amount of water.Snaked along a row of crops so that the holes were positioned directly above the roots,the pipe could direct each precious drop of water directly to the plants,getting a bigger harvest while using a very small amount of the water.
Over time,the farmers improved upon the technology,perfecting the drippers that regulated the flow of water,and connecting the pipelines to computers that could determine exactly how much water each plant needed and when.
If the global population kept growing,the rest of the world would increasingly resemble their little community in the desert.So they began selling their irrigation systems in other parts of the world,eventually expanding to more than 110 countries.Netafirm,the company says it's lifting people out of poverty and conserving water at a time when the importance of doing so has never been clearer.
The mass adoption of drip irrigation won't save the world by itself.To avoid the coming catastrophe,nearly everybody will,in some way,have to do more with less,perhaps through accepting and using other new technologies.Otherwise,it's going to get ugly.
(1)Why is drip irrigation called"the revolutionary technology"?
A.It saves the world all by itself.
B.It is controlled by computers.
C.It makes irrigation more effective.
D.It provides deserts with water.
(2)What does"one of the world's most urgent problems"in Paragraph l refer to?
A.lacking water.
B.lacking labor.
C.lacking food.
D.lacking energy.
(3)How does the drip irrigation help farmers with crops?
A.By drilling holes on the pipes.
B.By regulating water via drippers.
C.By snaking pipes along the crops.
D.By placing pipes just above roots.
(4)Which of the following will be the best slogan for Netafirm to sell the irrigation systems?
A.Less water;More harvest.
B.New technology;New world.
C.More grain;Less starvation.
D.Water saving;World surviving.組卷:15引用:5難度:0.7 -
4.Name-calling,teasing,pushing and fighting-whether you have experienced it or not,the chances are that these are the things that appear in your mind when you hear the word "bullying".Yet,many of us know little about the serious,lasting harms bullying could cause.
If you've watched 13 Reasons Why,you'll understand the impacts that bullying can have.The second season of the popular US teenage drama was released on May 18.It tells the story of Hannah Baker,a high school student who takes her own life after she's picked on by fellow students,while others stand by and do nothing to help her.
One of the important messages audiences could get from the show is to treat people with kindness and respect. "It teaches us that every single thing we say and do has an impact on others," news platform Odyssey noted.
Some may think 13 Reasons Why exaggerates (夸大) the seriousness of school bullying,but according to the US National Center for Educational Statistics,more than 20 percent of US students were bullied in 2016,and only 36% of this group reported it.
NBA player Gerald Green opened up about being called "alien hands" during his teenage years due to his big hands. "Being bullied was embarrassing," he said. "I still remember shying away from crowds and walking around with my hands in my pockets to evade the attention from my peers." To get away with the teasing,he found his motivation by playing basketball and making a career out of it.But not everyone is so lucky to discover a release.
According to statistics released by the US government,if someone prevents a bully,there's a 57% chance that the bullying will stop within 10 seconds.So if you ever witness bullying,consider stepping up and supporting the victim.As US actor Brandon Flynn,who stars in 13 Reasons Why,said, "Just because you're not the one getting bullied,it doesn't mean it's not your problem."
(1)What is the purpose of the last paragraph?
A.To add some background information.
B.To encourage eyewitnesses to take action.
C.To introduce a new topic of the discussion.
D.To give people advice about dealing with bullying.
(2)What does the US National Center for Educational Statistics indicate?
A.Bullying isn't a problem in many schools.
B.School bullying can't cause too much pain.
C.Only a few people are concerned about bullying.
D.Many people who're bullied choose not to seek help.
(3)What does the underlined word in Para.5 mean?
A.Attract.
B.Focus.
C.Avoid.
D.Keep.
(4)What does the text tell us about 13 Reasons Why?
A.It overstates school bullying.
B.It was first shown on May 18.
C.It is mainly about school bullying.
D.It shows few people can report bullying.組卷:124引用:2難度:0.1

5.Long ago,people believed that in the future we would work less,have more free time and get more relaxed.(1)
Today we work harder,work longer hours and have more stresses than ten years ago.We walk faster,talk faster and sleep less than previous generations.And although we use machines that save us time,we have less free time than our parents and grandparents.(2)
Newspaper articles today are shorter and the headlines are bigger.Most people don't have enough time to read the articles,so they only read the headlines.On TV and the radio,newspapers speak more quickly than ten years ago.In the USA,there is a book called One-Minute Bedtime Stories for children.These are shorter versions of traditional stories,specially written for "busy parents" who want to save time!Some answer phones now have "quick playback" buttons so that we can replay people's messages faster--- we can't waste time listening to people speaking at the normal speed!(4)
(5)
A.People didn't feel stressed ten years ago.
B.But unluckily,this has not happened yet.

The whole class burst out laughing as John rushed into the classroom.He was a strange sight.His half-buttoned white shirt revealed a red striped pajama top underneath,and instead of white school shoes,he had on a pair of bright green sandals (涼鞋) that were too big in size.The physics teacher's hand froze in the middle of writing a formula on the blackboard.
John murmured,"Sorry,teacher," and quickly stepped to his seat.Mr.Tan glared at the rest of the students.The laughter quickly died down.John's classmates always looked forward to Mondays.Nine times out of ten,they would be entertained by John's late arrival and his odd appearance which usually included inappropriate clothing.That day,it was the pajama top and green sandals.
John lived just a street away from the school.He walked to school daily.Students passing by in buses would yell his name together just to see him jump and stop in his tracks.Although John was adorable,he was too lost in his own thoughts to make friends.His classmates found him amusing but they ignored him most of the time.Only Harry,who sat next to John,tried to be his friend.
The following Monday,John did not turn up at school.His classmates were a little disappointed but quickly forgot about him.After school,Harry decided to walk over to John's house to check on him.As he approached the gate,he could hear violin music.John must be listening to music,he thought.The gate was not locked.Harry let himself in.He called John's name a few times but there was no response.The music played on.Harry peered in through a window.His eyes widened in surprise.In the middle of the living room,John was playing the violin.His eyes were closed in concentration as he drew the bow over the strings expertly.He played perfectly,so much so that it sounded like a recording.Harry left quietly.
