26、   Language learning apps are very popular now and offer opportunities to learn vocabulary and practice grammar. But there has been a discussion about just how effective such apps can be.

Among the most popular apps are Duolingo and Busuu. A former research found positive results on the use of them. But it mainly concentrated on studies with learners who had signed up for language courses and these apps worked as an after-class support, so the results were not always reliable. A recent study of 4,095 Busuu users has been carried out to find out if users can actually learn a language with an app.

Busuu provides learning materials for 12 different languages. It offers special models where some contents are ready for use for free while some contents are not. We find that its users are an even mix of men and women. More than half consider themselves to be at the beginner level because there is a reduction in users as their language levels go up. Most people use the app because of personal interest, or because they want to study or live abroad. Female users are likely to use it less often but for longer periods of time than male users.

Feedback in the app is highly thought of. More than 92% of the users say that the app has met their expectations and 86% consider the app as very good or good. In fact, more than 80% of the users surveyed strongly agree that using the app has helped them improve their knowledge of the language they are learning.

Besides, language learning apps also create an environment where mistakes are only known to the users, and this can address the performance nervousness that many learners suffer from when asked to speak a foreign language. So language teachers should encourage their students to use them to do the grammar work, leaving precious class time for more language communication.

【1】What's the reason why the results of the former research weren't always reliable?

A.It only considered users of a limited kind.

B.It just focused on positive results.

C.It was only carried out before class.

D.It used out-of-date methods.

【2】What can we learn about the app Busuu from the text?

A.It's used by more advanced learners.

B.. All the contents are free to use.

C.Most users consider it satisfying.

D.It's more popular with female learners.

【3】The underlined word"address"in the last paragraph can be replaced by_____.

A.cause B.solve

C.increase D.practice

【4】What is the main idea of the text?

A.Language learning apps are very popular with most language teachers.

B.Students won't suffer nervousness in learning languages by using Busuu.

C.Language learning apps are effective and satisfactory to language learners.

D.Students should be required to use apps for homework after class.

27、Sort trash, save Earth

You might not think much about where your garbage goes. But now you might want to know. On July 1, Shanghai introduced a new garbage-sorting policy (垃圾分类政策). People there need to put different kinds of garbage into different bins. Other cities in China will do the same soon.

Why is garbage sorting a big problem? It’s because there is too much garbage these days. It is bad for our soil, air and water. Actually we can make use of some garbage again.

And first, we need to sort our garbage. For example, if you put an old battery into the “harmful waste” bin, people can use it to make new batteries. But if you don’t, the battery will end up somewhere else. Then, it will pollute the environment.

Can’t factories sort garbage for us? Yes, they can. But it takes many workers to do this and costs lots of money. If we all sort our own garbage, things will become much easier.

Garbage sorting and recycling around the world

• Germany: There are big machines in supermarkets. You can put bottles in the machines and get money back. You can get one to two yuan per bottle. People like this because they can get money and protect the environment at the same time.

• Japan: A trash truck comes to people’s doors to pick up their garbage. It plays music when it’s coming. There are eight or more kinds of garbage. If you sort any of them wrong, you will get a notice on your door.

• Indonesia: People can take buses for free if they give plastic bottles to bus stations. An hour-long bus ride costs three large bottles, five medium bottles or 10 plastic cups. But the bottles must be clean.

• Shanghai: Four kinds of garbage in Shanghai

【1】What can we learn from Paragraph 1?

A.Many other cities in China have garbage-sorting policies.

B.Many people don’t like Shanghai’s garbage-sorting policy.

C.Shanghai is the first city in China to make a garbage-sorting policy.

D.China is the first country in the world to make a garbage-sorting policy.

【2】With the battery example, the writer tries to tell us   .

A.how to sort our garbage

B.the importance of sorting our garbage

C.what harmful waste is

D.the difficulty of sorting our garbage

【3】Why can’t we ask factories to sort garbage?

A.Because we don’t have this kind of factory.

B.Because factories ask for too much money.

C.Because it takes too many workers to do it.

D.Because not all garbage can go to factories.

【4】In which country can people take buses for free if they give plastic bottles to bus stations?

A.Germany. B.Indonesia. C.Japan. D.China.

28、There was once a jar(广口瓶) of fresh, clean water. Every drop of water in the jar felt immensely proud of being so clean and pure. Day after day they would congratulate each other on how clean and beautiful they were. That was until one day when one of the drops got bored with his clean existence. He wanted to try what it was like being a dirty drop.

The other drops tried to talk to him out of it, but he stuck to his guns. Hardly realizing, when the drop came back all dirty, he turned all the other drops in the jar into dirty drops, too.

They tried to get clean again, but they couldn’t. They tried everything to shake off the dirtiness. Finally, much later, someone dipped the jar in a fountain, and only when a lot of clean water entered the jar did the drops regain their old transparency and purity. Now they all know that if they all want to be nice clean drops, then each and every one of them has to stay clean, even if they find it difficult. That drop that succeeded in being dirty has realized that correcting the mistake of one single drop needs a lot of work for everyone else.

The same happens to us and our friends. If we want to live in a jar of clean water, each of us will have to be a clean drop. How about you? What are you? A clean drop?

【1】One of the drops made a change because he .

C．was too proud a drop

D．wanted to dirty others

【2】We can infer from Para. 2 that the drop was .

A．brave

B．confident

C．stubborn

D．dangerous

【3】Realizing the trouble he caused, the drop that succeeded in being dirty must have felt very

A．important

B．pleased

C．proud

D．sorry

【4】What's the writer's purpose of writing this article?

A．To advise readers to be “a clean drop”.

B．To blame the drop for his foolish mistake.

C．To tell readers the way to be “a clean drop”.

D．To tell readers how to work together effectively.

29、Easy Ways to Keep Your Brain Sharp

Everyone is forgetful, but as we age, we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bit — and that can be a very annoying thing. 【1】 Read on for some techniques worth trying.

1【2】

People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50 percent reduced chance of Alzheimer's disease (早老性痴呆症), according to a recent study. 【3】 Something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do. There’s evidence that people who have a purpose in life or who are working on long or short-term goals appear to do better. In other words, keep your brain looking forward.

2 Go for a walk.

Mildly raised glucose (葡萄糖) levels can harm the area of the brain that helps you form memories and physical activity can help get blood glucose down to normal levels. In fact, exercise produces chemicals that are good for your brain. 【4】

3Learn something new.

Take a Spanish class online, join a drawing club, or learn to play cards. A study found that mental stimulation (刺激) limits the weakening effects of aging on memory and the mind. But the best thing for your brain is when you learn something new and are physically active at the same time. 【5】

A.Focus on the future.

B.This can be especially harmful to the aged.

C.It should be something like learning gardening, or go dancing with your friends.

D.So take a few minutes each day to do some reading.

E.But don’t worry if your schedule isn’t filled with life-changing events.

F.Luckily, research shows there is a lot you can do to avoid those moments.

G.In other words, when you take care of your body, you take care of your brain.
