24、   How do you feel about nature? After spending hours indoors, do you feel better when you visit your local park? Most people think that nature is good for our bodies and brains. However, humans are spending more time inside and less time outside. For example, the number of visitors to Canada's national parks is getting lower every year. And in countries such as the USA, only 10% of teenagers spend time outside every day. Many doctors feel that this is a problem in the twenty-first century.

As a result, some doctors are studying the connection between nature and health: one example of this is the work of Dr Matilda in Sweden. The doctor gave people a maths test. During the test, their heart rates (心率) were fast. After the test, one group of people sat in a 3D-virtual-reality (虚拟现实) room for fifteen minutes with pictures and sounds of nature. Their heart rates were slower than people's in the other group.

The virtual touch with nature helped them feel more relaxed. Another good example of how nature is good for health comes from Canada. In Toronto, researchers studied 31,000 people living in the city. In general, they found that healthier people lived near parks.

Because of studies like these, some countries and cities want nature to be part of people's everyday life. In Dubai, for example, there are plans for a new shopping mall with a large garden so shoppers can relax outside with trees, plants and water. In Switzerland, 'forest schools' are popular. Schoolchildren study their subjects in the forests and do lots of exercise outside. And South Korea is another good example: it has new forests near its cities and around 13 million people visit these forests every year. So after building cities for so long, perhaps it's now time to start rebuilding nature.

【1】What does Paragraph 1 mainly talk about?

A．Teenagers' problem in the 21st century.

B．How much time we spend outdoors.

C．Visiting your local park.

D．Feeling about nature.

【2】What do the results of the studies show?

A．More and more Canadians will live near parks.

B．The maths test is difficult and makes people nervous.

C．Nature can help people feel more relaxed and be healthier.

D．People's heart rates get slower in a 3D-virtual-reality room.

【3】What can we infer from the last sentence of the passage?

A．Nature is more important than cities.

B．Country life is healthier than city life.

C．People have lived in the cities for so long.

D．Nature should be part of people's daily life.

25、Some people might think that young people are too young to know what they want. But people like Lu Kaigang prove them all wrong.

Lu, 23, a fashion model from China, grew up walking the roads in rural Guangxi. Now, he walks on some of the largest fashion catwalks（T台）in the world.

He found his interest when he was young. “I have had a supermodel dream since I was 10 while I was still in primary school. I saw a fashion show on TV and I felt it was so cool to do that on the runway,” Lu said. Although Lu didn’t have much money or any professional training, that didn’t stop him from chasing his dream. Lu collected pieces of cloth from the factory he worked at and made them into outfits（服装）. In 2018, he started making videos of himself wearing his handmade outfits and posted them online.

Lu has what money can’t buy: determination（决心）and self-belief. “The early videos I posted didn’t get many ‘likes’,” Lu said. “But I believed what I was doing would be accepted by the world someday.”

Lu quit his job at the factory and went back to his hometown to spend time learning how to be a supermodel. He also began to use other materials for outfits, like plastic bags and kept posting videos of himself online.

About one year later, Lu’s hard work paid off and he became an online star. He’s not just your common model. His one-of-a-kind clothes show off his talent and creativity, and his videos are mostly filmed on village dirty roads, adding a special and fresh background.

We can be sure that if Lu hadn’t followed his heart at a young age, he wouldn’t be where he is today.

根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。

【1】What was Lu’s life like before becoming popular online?

A．He was born into a rich family.

26、Bilibili, the leading video community for young generations in China, announced (公布) that the term “Po Fang Le”, translated as “this broke down my defenses (防守)”, is its 2021 Bullet chat (弹幕) of the Year.

The term first came from the gaming community. Gamers use it when they are hit and their defense are broken down. Similar to the English phrases “This really got me” or “I’m shook”, “Po Fang Le” is now used beyond gaming and has become a catchphrase (流行语). Young people use it to express something that has left them emotionally shaken by strong feelings, for example, when deeply touched by a moving story or feeling helpless under great stress.

The bullet chat “Po Fang Le” can be found in different kinds of Bilibili videos, from the touching moments of people’s daily lives to major events in society. Users have sent this bullet chat in videos of a teacher teaching his last class before leaving his job, of athletes competing at the Tokyo Olympic Games, and of rescue teams saving people trapped (被困) during the Henan floods. The popularity of the term reflects an increased empathy (共情) in the young generations of China.

This is the fifth year for Bilibili to announce its Bullet Chat of the Year. The 2020 winner was “Ye Qing Hui”, meaning “my youth is making a comeback”, expressing nostalgia of one’s youth. “AWSL”, a simple way of saying “this is killing me” in Chinese, ranked number one in 2019.

The bullet chat has become a symbol of our age. It expresses the richest emotions of young generations in the simplest way. By providing a highly interactive (互动) viewing experience, the bullet chat also provides each user with a sense of belonging.

29、完形填空。（10分）

I was feeling a little blue because my mother had lost her job.

One day, while I was   on the street, I heard piano music and singing rising above the noise of the people. I walked more slowly to      where it was coming from. Then I saw a young lady sitting at piano.

She was singing songs about love, losing herself and keeping on trying. The way she was singing made me a little comfortable. I stood there   , watching her playing on such a crowded New York square . I thought that she must be   enough to perform in front of so many people.
