21、   Do you like shopping? For shopaholics in the UK, the place to head to used to be the "high street". This location refers to the streets in the centre of a town where businesses and popular branches of retail chains could be found. It was the place where you could find familiar fashion brands and essential everyday items.

But change in our shopping habits has taken its toll on the British high street. News about shops losing money and shutting is now common. Some city-centre department stores have closed and even long-established retailers such as Marks and Spencer have reported profit slumps.

As the BBC's Emma Simpson writes, things have become a lot harder for traditional retailers in recent years. They have faced rising costs from wages, business rates and the requirement to introduce Europe's new data law.

But the biggest threat has come from online shopping. She says, "Consumers now spend one in every five pounds online-and if businesses are seeing 20 percent fewer sales on the shop floor, then profit margins will be squeezed."

While some of us like to window shop-browsing for things to buy, only to purchase them online at a discount-the fact is that, overall, shoppers are making fewer visits to high streets. Eventually, town centres could become like ghost towns. If people aren't out and about shopping, they won't use other services, like cafes, restaurants and cinemas. It also results in job losses.

The British Retail Consortium has already warned that 900, 000 UK retail jobs could be lost by 2025. The high street has also suffered from the coming of big shopping malls, which offer a retail experience under one roof, with free parking, away from the bad weather!

Meanwhile, back on the high street, some shops still exist. Analysts have said it's those that have moved away from traditional retailing that are surviving. These include beauty salons, nail bars and independent coffee shops-but are these kinds of shops enough to keep the British high street open for business?

【1】What is the "high street"?

A.The street in the high places in the UK. B.The street without big shopping malls.

C.The street where you can buy fast food. D.The main street of a town with many businesses.

【2】What do the underlined words "taken its toll" in paragraph 2 mean?

A.Had a bad effect. B.Taken its advantage.

C.Done something good. D.Changed its form.

【3】What is the main cause of the decline of the traditional retail?

A.Rising costs from wages. B.Online shopping.

C.Business rates. D.Europe's new data law.

【4】Which kind of businesses can survive on the high street?

A.Popular branches of retail chains. B.Fashion retailers.

C.Department stores. D.Beauty salons and nail bars.

22、An electric signal can trick a monkey’s brain into believing the animal’s finger has been touched.

Touch something, and your brain knows. The hand sends signals to the brain to announce contact was made. But that feeling of touch may not require making actual contact, tests on monkeys now show. Zapping brain cells can fool the animal into thinking its finger has touched something.

A person who has lost a limb or become paralyzed may need an artificial limb to complete everyday tasks. But such patients may not truly feel any objects they hold. The new findings point toward one day creating a sense of touch in those who use such artificial limbs. Psychologist Sliman Bensmaia of University of Chicago worked on the new tests. His team’s findings appeared on October 14 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America.

The sense of touch is crucial to everyday tasks: People withoutitmay have difficulty cracking an egg, lifting a cup or even turning a doorknob. That’s why restoring it is a major goal for designers of artificial limbs.

In their new study, Bensmaia and his co-workers worked with rhesus monkeys (恒河猴). The scientists implanted electrodes (电极)--- small devices that can detect and relay an electrical signal—into the animals’ brains. The scientists used the electrode data to identify which neurons had become active. Then the scientists used the implanted electrodes to zap those same neurons. And the monkeys reacted as though their fingers had been touched. In fact, they hadn’t.

The monkeys couldn’t use words to tell the scientists what they had felt. Instead, they communicated by looking in a particular direction—just as when they had really been touched.

The new findings show how touch-sensitive devices could be built. The new study also offers “ a nice clear pathway” for figuring out how to restore a sense of touch to an amputee(被截肢者) or someone with a injury of spinal cord.

The study shows how artificial limbs might be connected to the brain so that a person can “feel” with such a prosthesis (假肢). But such a supersensory device doesn’t exist yet and scientists have a lot of work to do before people will benefit from it. Researchers must first figure out whether the electrodes would work in people in the same way they do in monkeys.

“ I think the foundation is laid for human trials,” Bensmaia said.

23、The Tour de France is a very difficult bike race. It lasts over three weeks and covers 3,351 kilometers. Every day, the riders finish a different part of the race, called a "stage". Every stage can have a different winner, and each day, the total time is added up. The person who is leading wears a yellow shirt to show that they are winning. But there're no women in the Tour de France, only men. From 1984 to 2009, there was a women's Tour de France. But over time, the event grew smaller and less challenging. In 2009, it ended completely.

The Tour de France is organized by Amaury Sport Organization（ASO）. In 2014, ASO began holding a shorter one or two-day race for women called La Course. But it is by no means a long and challenging race with many stages.

To call attention to the need for a women's Tour de France, a French cycling club has taken or an unusual project called “J-I". As part of J-1, since 2015,a group of women has been riding the exact same course as the men's Tour de France, just one day earlier.

Women won't have to take part in the J-I project in 2022 because ASO has announced that in July of 2022 , they'll be holding the Tour de France Femmes（TDFF）—a Tour de France for women.

It'll be an eight-day race with many stages, which will kick off as soon as the men's Tour de France comes to an end. That's likely to help attract viewers. In the past, the women's race was held just before or during the men's race. Now, all the people who have finished watching the men's race and are still looking for some racing excitement will have a chance to tune in for the women's race

Christian Prudhomme, who organizes the Tour de France says that earlier versions of the women's Tour de France lost money. This time, they are hoping to set the race up in a way that it'll make money, allowing the event to continue.

【1】What does the first paragraph mainly tell us?

A．Why the Tour de France is held.

B．What the men's Tour de France is.

C．How men mark the Tour de France.

D．How women lost the Tour de France.

【2】What can we say about la Course?

A．It ended in 2019.

B．It sponsors ASO.

C．It replaces the TDFF

D．It is not competitive.

【3】What can be inferred about J-1?

A．It has reached its initial purpose.

B．It supports the men's Tour de France

C．It's as famous as the Tour de France.

D．It's one stage of La Course since 2015

【4】In what way is the TDFF different from the original ones?

A．It'll need more viewers.

B．It'll continue longer.

C．It will start later

D．It will cost more.

24、Where Are We Going, Dad? has become one of China’s most popular television shows, since its debut（首次登场）in October, averaging more than 600 million viewers each week. Sponsorship rights（冠名权）for the show’s second season were sold for 312 million yuan（about $ 50 million）, more than ten times higher than the rights to the first season.

What accounts for its popularity? The show features a mew generation of Chinese fathers, who, as part of the country’s new middle class, have faced more problems with modern child-raising techniques such as taking an active role with their children.

Part of the appeal of the show is the chance to throw a glance at the lives of Chinese celebrities（名流）and their children. Audiences are interested in watching the failed attempts of celebrity dads making dinner, doing hair, and disciplining（管教）children — tasks often left to mothers in a society still influenced by the saying that “men rule outside and women are inside.” “In traditional Chinese culture, fathers are strict and mothers are kind. But on the show, we see fathers who are much gentler on their kids and more involved in their upbringing,” said Li Minyi, an associate professor. “This show raises an important question for modern Chinese society — what is the role of fathers in today’s China?”

After each episode（集）goes to air, the Chinese Internet explodes with comments on each celebrity’s parenting style.

Actor Guo Tao tries to communicate with his son, Shitou, but is seen as a more traditional Chinese father, and has been criticized online for being too____Zhang Liang, a supermodel, is an audience favorite for treating his son, Tiantian, more like a friend. The show’s most famous celebrity, Lin Zhiying, a film star, was originally praised as patient with his son Kimi. But as the season progresses, fans begin to criticize him for raising a spoiled, undisciplined boy. Director Wang Yuelun is at a complete loss when it comes to care of his daughter’s hair.

Even the People’s Daily is pleased with the success of the show.

A. 312 million yuan
