24、   In English, feeling "blue" means feeling sad. But in 2020, the word "blue" could mean something more positive (积极的) .

The Pantone Color Institute in the US forecasts (预测) color trends (趋势) every year. For 2020, it has chosen "classic blue", a color that reminds people of the sky before dark. The reason is that it brings "calm, confidence and connection," according to Pantone.

In 2020, people all over the world faced big challenges. Climate change, disease, homeless-ness... all of these problems made us feel nervous and uneasy. But as Pantone Vice(副) President Laurie Pressman said, "The color of classic blue has a comforting power."

Imagine that you are lying down on the ground and looking at the evening sky. Looking at the blue sky will make you feel calm and relaxed, as well as make you think on a deeper level.

Pantone said that classic blue connects people everywhere as we all look up at our shared sky. "This is a color we can relate to (引起共鸣) around the world, no matter where we live. We look outside the door and we see this color," Pressman said.

"Like blue jeans, it's always there and you're comfortable with it," said Pressman, who considered classic blue as a " timeless shade". If the color is never out of style, people won't throw "classic blue" things away. We can buy less and save resources.

So if you want to add some new things to your home, choose something blue to keep up with the latest trend.

【1】According to the passage, which of the following can best describe the colour blue?

A.Old-fashioned. B.Powerful. C.Nervous. D.Uncomfortable.

【2】What does the underlined phrase "timeless shade" mean?

A.失去时间的痕迹 B.没有时间的阴影部分 C.永不过时的颜色 D.不受时间影响的树荫

【3】What is the best title for this article?

A.Try feeling "blue" B.Buy something blue C.Keep up with the trend D.Connect all the people

Four types of friends you need in your life

Do you know that people will die early if they have no friends during their lifetime? The surveyshows if you want to live longer and more happily, you need to have some friends who can share your sadness and happiness or can be helpful when you are in trouble.

The following four types of friends are just what you need to keep the doctor away.

1. A Loyal Best Friend

Everyone needs a friend who will support you in different situations. This kind of friend knowsall of your deepest and darkest secrets, but still loves you all the same.

2. A Friendly Neighbor

These days, a lot of people don’t know their own neighbors. It’s a shame, because some neighbors can be the most helpful people. If you forget to lock the front door when you are on holiday,you can call your neighbors to lock it for you. So it’s wonderful to have nice and helpful neighbors.

3. A Workmate

You’ll find it much easier to chat with someone than eating lunch alone every day. Your workmate doesn’t have to be your best friend. If you two get along well with each other, you can always start going out with them outside of the office.

4. A Friend From a Different Culture

If everyone had a friend from a different culture, the world would be a much better place. Remember that don’t make friends with someone just because they’re from a different culture. Instead, keep your mind open, and if you meet someone from other places, try to learn about their customs, values, and traditions.

If you have such kinds of friends, you will surely live longer and more happily.

29、   One night I was sitting in my room half-listening as my 15-year-old brother Tommy fought with my 12-year-old brother Kevin. I didn’t pay attention when Kevin rushed up the stairs with the  _______ on his face.

About 20 minutes later, as I was walking upstairs, I heard Kevin _______ inside the bathroom. I knocked on the door and asked, “Hey, Kevin, do you want to talk?”

No response (回答). I tried again, “_______ don’t you come out of there?” Again, no response.

So, I got a stack (堆) of index cards (摘录卡片) and a pencil and wrote, “_______ you don’t want to talk, we can write notes to each other.”

An hour later, I was _______ sitting on the floor outside the bathroom with two stacks of index cards in front of me. One stack was blank(空白的) and one stack was cards from Kevin on which he had translated(翻译) all his _______ feelings into words for me. As I read one of Kevin’s notes, tears(眼泪) came into my eyes. It said, “_______ in this family cares about me. I’m not the youngest, and I’m not the oldest, and I’m not a top student. Tommy thinks I’m stupid and Dad _______ he had the other Kevin as a kid because he is better at basketball. And you’re never around to even _______ me.”

Tears came to my eyes as I __________ back to him. “You know Kevin, I really do love you and I’m sorry I don’t always __________ it. I’m here for you and you’re loved in this family.”There was no response for a while, __________ then I heard a(n) tearing(撕碎的) sound coming from inside the bathroom. Kevin, who had run out of (用完) index cards, wrote on a torn(撕破的) paper cup, “__________.”

I wrote back, “For what?” __________ returned to me with “Loving me” written on it.

Since then, I try my best never only to half-notice my family members any more. Kevin and I have a __________ relationship now, and sometimes when one of us notices that the other is upset(不开心), we will smile and say “Write it on a paper cup.”
