21、

We touch our faces all the time, and it had never seemed to be a big problem–until COVID-19 arrived. Touching our faces–the "T-zone" of our eyes, nose and mouth in particular–can mean giving ourselves the deadly virus.

This is why organizations like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have suggested that we avoid touching our faces. "Just stop this simple behavior," William Sawyer, founder of Henry the Hand, a nonprofit organization that promotes hand hygiene (卫生), told The Washington Post. "It's the one behavior that would be better than any vaccine ever created."

Yet, stopping this "simple" behavior might be harder than you think because it's already into our system.

Some face touching is an automatic reflex (反射) – like when there is an itch on your nose, you'll scratch (挠) it without thinking. According to CNBC, a 2014 study found that touching your face also helps to reduce stress and regulate emotions. For example, you're more likely to do it when you feel awkward or embarrassed. According to Dacher Keltner, a psychologist at the University of California Berkeley, US, this action may also come with a social function: When you are talking to someone and want to change the subject, for example, touching your face is like "the curtains on a stage, closing up one act of the social drama, leading to the next," Keltner told the BBC.

Moreover, face-touching in almost all of these is subconscious, which means it's very hard to change "because you don't even know you're doing it", said Sawyer. But you're not alone. In a 2015 study, where a group of medical students were filmed in class, it was found that they touched their faces an average of 23 times an hour–with 44 percent of the touches being in the"T-zones". That was particularly surprising since medical students were supposed to know better.

Since it's so hard to shake the habit, maybe the easiest way is to wash our hands more often. This way, we can be sure that our hands are free from the novel coronavirus.

Tips for keeping your hands away

Tie up your hair so your face won't be tickled (使发痒) by stray strands (松散的发缕).

Keep your hands occupied, eg. with a stress ball.

Ask a friend to keep an eye on your hands.

【1】It's hard to stop touching faces because people ________.

A．don't take it seriously

B．do it without awareness

C．are born with the behavior

D．feel happier while doing it

【2】What does the underlined word "subconscious" mean?

A．Obvious.

B．Natural.

C．Strange.

D．Impolite.

【3】Which of the following is a social function of touching faces, according to the text?

A．Bringing a conversation to an end.

B．Making others feel relaxed while talking.

C．Showing an interest in the ongoing subject.

D．Using it as a sign to change the topic.

【4】What is the author's purpose in mentioning a 2015 study on a group of medical students?

A．To give tips on how to stop touching faces.

B．To prove that it is common for people to touch their faces.

C．To show how hygiene awareness helps people avoid touching their faces.

D．To show it is impossible to shake the habit of touching your face.

24、Being teenagers can be hard because they have to face a lot of difficult problems. A new program called NFusion is working hard to help teenagers with mental health （精神健康）problems. NFusion gives teenagers classes so that they can study or discuss their problems.

17-year-old Judy thought the program was very helpful. She said the program really changed her life. The girl once had trouble with her attitude （态度）to others.

25、Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words (在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给)

Newspapers have been an important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. There is an old Chinese saying: “A scholar need not leave his home to know what’s going on in the world.” Reading newspapers is, in my opinion, a must for a modern person. But how do newspaper e【1】 decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?

Firstly, it is important to report news stories. TV stations can report news much f【2】 than newspapers. However, newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may print c【3】 different stories from those on TV.

Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don’t want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kind of danger and s【4】 to be “bad” news. For example, newspapers never print stories about planes landing safely; instead they print stories about plane accidents.

Another factor (因素) is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more people p【5】 to read stories about people, places and events in their own country. So the stories on the f【6】 page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers.

Today, with so many newspapers and so many television and Internet sites, people can get their news quickly. Many newspapers have lost so many r【7】, so they have been forced to close.
