21、Imagine this scene: it’s blowing outside, and you snuggle (蜷伏) up on the sofa under a warm quilt, chatting and recalling with your closest friends.

That content, cosy feeling has a name in Danish —hygge. And, as Denmark recently won the title of “the happiest country in the world”, the concept of hygge is known to more and more people interested in finding ways to understand this concept.

Hygge —originally from a Norwegian word meaning well-being — doesn’t have an exact equivalent (等同物) in English. It’s often translated as coziness, or as blogger Anna West told the BBC, “coziness of the soul”. But, as professor Maren Spark explains, “Hygge was never meant to be translated. It was meant to be felt.”

Basically, hygge involves creating a warm, cosy atmosphere and enjoying it with your loved ones. Danish winters are long and dark and so achieving hygge is particularly relevant during this season. A typical Hygge activity during winter could be enjoying delicious homemade food and light-hearted conversation with friends —preferably in the warm glow of candlelight, or maybe sipping a glass of wine in the hot tub after a day spent skiing.

However, hygge isn’t only limited to the cold winter months —it can also describe that warm, fuzzy feeling you get after a walk through a forest with friends on summer’s day or a family barbecue in the park. Hygge is meant to be shared.

【1】The author asks the readers to imagine the scene in the first paragraph to   .

A. help the readers to calm down

B. introduce the topic of the passage

C. present the main idea of the passage

D. remind the readers of their past memories

【2】What do the underlined words by Maren Spark mean?

A. The translation of the word “hygge” is not good enough.

B. Only Danish speakers know what “hygge” means.

C. “Hygge” is easy to translate but hard to feel.

D. We can get the true meaning of “hygge” by feeling it.

【3】Which of the following can be best described as a “hygge” activity?

A. Skiing in the cold winter months.

B. Living through long dark winters.

C. Taking afternoon tea with friends.

D. Walking alone in the forest.

【4】The author writes this passage to   .

A. explain   B. persuade

C. comment   D. advertise

22、Everyone needs friends．We all like to feel close to someone．It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with．Surely, sometimes we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around．But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.

No two people are the same．Sometimes friends don’t get along well．That doesn’t mean that they no longer like each other．Most of the time they will go on being friends．Sometimes friends move away．Then we feel very sad．We miss them very much．But we can call them and write to them．Maybe we would never see them again．And we can make new friends．It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them．Families sometimes name their children after a close friend．Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town．Some libraries are named this way．So are some schools．We think of these people when we go to these places.

There’s more good news for people, if they have friends．These people live longer than those people who don’t have friends．Why?

23、   WeChat, China's most popular mobile social app, used to be a place where people could connect with each other through sharing photos and texts about their life in their friend circles, but now it is flooded with advertisements, showoffs, chicken-soup stories and even rumors(谣言).

In the age of social media, everyone is crazy about attention. When I first joined WeChat in 2011, like many people, I shared a lot of moments in my life. I felt like if I did not post something on my friend circle, I would feel less important in this world.

For years, I enjoyed it. It made me feel like I was more popular than I actually was in real life. However, when the number of my “friends” increased, it became a really bad dream.

WeChat's friend circle has become such a sensitive(敏感的) place that it has started to make relationships among people become tense. One day when I called my high school friend and asked how she was doing, she was kind of upset that I did not pay much attention to her friend circle. “All my moments are listed there. You don't even care about following me?” she questioned. Honestly, I have no interest in what everyone is doing every minute. But clearly, it is a big deal for some people.

“Why didn't you like my post?” “Why can't I see the moment you post? Did you keep me off?” “Why didn't you reply to my comment?” “Can you please help me retweet(转发) this message?” These are the questions I always get.

I believe that the reason why WeChat is so widely used is that it shows the very Chinese way of social life—we are all connected in different social groups such as classmate groups, co-worker groups and neighborhood groups. In real life, many Chinese people are good at role playing in different groups, which is similar to WeChat. It is like the traditional face-changing in the Sichuan Opera. You have to say things differently indifferent groups.

It has been reported that more and more people are leaving the friend circle because they are annoyed. I finally left too. I need to start thinking of how to use social media by hiding myself just enough while my friends all stay interested in me at the same time.

【1】Which of the following is NOT what people used to do on WeChat?

A．Share photos.

B．Share texts about life.

C．Show off.

【2】What caused the writer to join WeChat in 2011?

A．The writer wanted to share something in his or her life.

B．The writer wanted to care about other people's life.

C．The writer wanted to feel unimportant in this world.

【3】Why is WeChat so widely used according to the passage? Because ________.

A．the WeChat social groups can take the place of people's real life

B．it is a mini Chinese social life

C．people feel happy all the time in WeChat

【4】What does the writer think of WeChat now?

A．Interesting.

B．Annoying.

C．Exciting.

【5】What can you infer from the passage according to the writer?

A．WeChat is not very popular among people at all.

B．Some people are getting angry about the friend circle.

C．Many Chinese people are good at face-changing in Sichuan Opera.

24、When it comes to the jobs robots could never do, you would probably put doctors and teachers at the top of the list. It's easy to imagine robot cleaners and factory workers, but some jobs need human connection and creativity. But are we underestimating (低估) what robots can do? In some cases, they already perform better than doctors at diagnosing (诊断) illness. Also, some patients might feel more comfortable sharing personal information with a machine than a person. Could there be a place for robots in education after all?

British education expert Anthony Seldon thinks so. And he even has a date for the robot takeover of the classroom: 2027. He predicts robots will do the main job of transferring information and teachers will be like assistants. Intelligent robots will read students' faces, movements and maybe even brain signals. Then they will adapt the information to each student. However, it's not a popular opinion and it's unlikely that robots will ever have empathy (同理心) and the ability to really connect with humans.

One thing is certain, though. A robot teacher is better than no teacher at all. In some parts of the world, there aren't enough teachers. That problem could be partly solved by robots because they can teach anywhere and won't get stressed, or tired, or move somewhere for an easier, higher-paid job.

Teachers all over the world are leaving because they feel overworked. Perhaps the question is not “Will robots replace teachers?” but “How can robots help teachers?” Teachers waste a lot of time doing non-teaching work, including more than 11 hours a week marking homework. If robots could cut the time teachers spend on marking homework and writing reports, teachers would have more time and energy for the parts of the job humans do best.

【1】In the opinion of most people, what kind of jobs are robots most likely to do?

A．Culture-related jobs.

B．Mental jobs.

C．Physical jobs.

D．Tiresome jobs.

【2】What can be learned about Anthony Seldon's prediction in Paragraph 2?

A．It sounds disappointing.

B．It seems to be puzzling.

C．It isn't widely accepted.

D．It has become a reality.

【3】What's the last paragraph mainly about ?

A．Why teachers are badly needed.

B．Teachers' working conditions.

C．Disadvantages of robot teachers.

D．How robots help teachers.

【4】What's the author's attitude towards robot teachers?

A．Opposed.

B．Favorable.

C．Suspicious.

D．Sympathetic.
