【題目】Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

Standing desks have been praised for their positive effects on physical health, reducing sitting time and lowering certain health risks linked to a sedentary( 久坐的) lifestyle. But could standing desks have positive mental effects?

New research suggests that students may think best when they are on their feet. It offers some of the first evidence of mental benefits of standing desks in classrooms.

Testing was done on high school freshmen who used standing desks, evaluating them at the beginning and end of the school year. Dr. Ranjana Mehta, an assistant professor at the Texas A&M School of Public Health, led the experiments aiming to assess standing desks’ mental benefits.

Through computerized tests, students’ executive functions were evaluated. Executive functions are the cognitive skills used to analyze tasks and break them into steps, and are directly related to academic needs like time management, memorizing facts and solving multi-step problems. These functions are largely controlled by frontal(前額的) brain regions, so researchers used a portable brain-imaging device to examine any related changes.

“Test results indicated that continued use of standing desks was associated with significant improvements in executive functions and working memory abilities,” Mehta said. “Changes in corresponding brain activation patterns were also observed.”

“Interestingly, our research showed the use of standing desks improved mental function, which is consistent with results from previous studies on school-based exercise programs,” Mehta noted.

Policymakers, public health professionals and school administrators should consider the positive effects of standing desks and make some simple changes in classrooms that will have the potential to increase energy expenditure and develop cognitive skills. That would be a valuable contribution to the educational world.

【題目】 During the COVID-19 crisis, even the simple act of buying groceries has been completely transformed. For seniors this task is even more challenging. Concordia University's ACT project team has joined with community partners in the neighbourhood to fill this gap. They've rapidly created a new program-COVID-19 Grocery Response NDG.

The program uses a model that pairs volunteers with seniors, based on availability and language. Those volunteers are trained by ACT's team via video conferencing and then given a list of older adults. The volunteer calls the individuals and takes their order, working with grocer offerings of a Provigo store in the area. When the call is over, the order gets sent to Provigo, which gathers and delivers the order to the senior. It won't take the place of the work of the food bank; seniors are paying for their groceries.

There is also an important social element to the call, which doubles as a friendly check -in. The volunteer chats a bit with the senior, who may be very lonely and anxious. One volunteer says it has also been a rewarding experience and gives her the opportunity to help others while staying at home, which they are all being encouraged to do.

The program is a response to a number of factors, including the fact that many older adults are on a fixed income and may not have the internet access needed to order groceries online. It is targeting seniors who aren't able to access New Hope's usual meals on wheels service.

So far the project is a success, with a growing number of volunteers and seniors. As for what's next, Concordia is optimistic but acknowledges that the team will need to be nimble to accommodate the changing realities of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are at a critical time and we need to do everything we can, together, to help out.

【1】What do the volunteers do to help the seniors?

A.Help them pay the bill.B.Send their order to the store.

C.Write a shopping list for them.D.Deliver their groceries lo the door.

【2】What can we infer about the programme from paragraph 3?

A.It benefits both sides.B.It helps the store survive.

C.It goes beyond expectation.D.It encourages people to purchase online.

【3】Who might be the potential client of the program?

A.Daisy aged 45 with a heavy debt.B.David who enjoys meals on wheels service.

C.Alexander aged 75 with a retirement pension.D.Elspeth who knows noting about online shopping.

【4】What does the underlined word “nimble” probably mean?

A.Flexible.B.Beneficial.

“As basketball players, we're told to shut up and dribble（運(yùn)球）,” Bryant once said on stage. “I’m glad we did a little bit more than that.”

He thanked his wife, Vanessa, and his three daughters, naming each of them. He spoke a few words of Italian — a language he learned as a child growing up in Italy — and closed by telling them, “You arc my inspiration.'

He was just getting started. And now he's gone.

The tributes（悼念）will continue, though eventually fade away. The legacy will be forever.

【題目】 Every year, groups of tourists travel to central US states like Oklahoma, Texas and Nebraska for their summer vacation. 【1】 They’re going to chase storms.

Once an activity only for scientists and adventurous types, storm chasing has now become an increasingly popular pastime for people from all over the world. 【2】 Storm chasers analyze weather reports and maps to locate an incoming storm before driving hundreds of miles toward it to witness a tornado in action.

The people going on these tours vary from curious first-time chasers looking for something different to storm chasing “addicts” like Nicholas Lee, a weather forecaster from the UK. 【3】 Now he saves up his vacation days to go storm chasing for three weeks every summer in the center of the US.

The escape routes will be too congested as well. 【5】 Take the tornado that touched down near El Reno, Oklahoma in 2013. More than 150 people were injured, and 20 killed in it, including Tim Samaras, an experienced storm chaser plus his son and another partner.

【題目】How to express yourself to others

Every person on the planet communicates in some fashion. And one of the hardest things to do when you're communicating with someone is expressing yourself. After all, words have the power to give life and death... especially in relationships. 【1】

If you have a fear of people, people will avoid you. It's a vicious cycle（惡性循環(huán)）. You avoid people because you fear that they will hurt you. People see your coldness, and either think the worst （that you are stuck-up（傲慢的）），or satisfy your desire and leave you alone. 【2】 You'll have a hard time getting close to them when you bottle everything up inside. Your relationships will all be shallow.

Your inability to express yourself will haunt（縈繞于）you in time of trouble. You'll need help, and you'll want help, but you won't seek it. You'll hide. So, no one helps you. Then you grow bitter and angry. What's more, it can cause isolation. You build walls around your emotions and people consequently leave you alone. Gradually, your life will be empty. Life is relationships. 【3】

However, reading will help you learn how other people express themselves. Pay attention to word usage, diction（措詞）,flow, voice and tones. These will give you ideas of expressing yourself. 【4】 They'll provide you with many ways of expressing your emotions and help you express yourself better.

Besides, you can do some writing on your own. Start a novel. Write letters. Keep a journal or diary. You'll find that writing helps you to sort through your thoughts. Writing gives you focus and direction.

【5】 You can't catch it from someone who has it. It is the spiritual state of mind that is the direct result of fear. There is really only one type of fear and that is the fear of the unknown. Don't fear what other people think about you. Honestly, your imagination will create far worse imagination than what most people will ever think.

A.Social anxiety is not a disease.

B.That will make them feel needed.

C.So it is important that you learn to express yourself.

D.All of these factors have some relationship to happiness.

E.Look up words that you've never seen before and use them.

F.The stronger your relationships are, the more joy you'll have in life.

G.When you can't open up to people, they will feel that you are unapproachable.
