In 2007, when she took part in film shooting in that area. she was shocked by the poverty（贫穷）there. Children had to walk along mountain roads to attend classes at a neighbouring village school. So she came up with the idea of doing something for these children.

Besides giving classes, Jiang also plays games with children and sings songs for them. And she cares much for their daily life. Moreover, she donated billion yuan to set up a fund（基金） for students there.

22、"Earworms", some people call them. Songs that get stuck in your head go round and round, sometimes for days, sometimes for months. For no clear reason you cannot help yourself from humming or singing a tune by Lady Gaga.

To a psychologist, the most interesting thing about earworms is that they show a part of our mind that is clearly outside of our control. Earworms arrive without permission and refuse to leave when we tell them to. They are parasites (寄生虫) living in a part of our minds.

If you have got an earworm you can suffer an attack of it simply by someone mentioning the tune, without having to hear it. This proves that earworms are a part of long-term memory. Humans have an "inner ear", for remembering phone numbers, for instance. When it gets infected with earworms, rather than review our plans for the day, or lists of things to remember, the inner ear gets stuck on a few short bars of music or a couple of phrases from a song. A part of us that we normally do not have to think about, that should just do what we ask, has been turned against us, upsetting us with a request that we never asked for. The mind is an inner world which we do not have complete knowledge of, or have control over.

Fortunately psychology can provide some advice on how to deal with an uncontrollable mind. Consider the famous "don’t think of a white bear" problem, which tells you to try not to think about white bears, or to do something else, to avoid both thinking of the white bear and not thinking of the white bear. For earworms, the solution may be the same. Our inner ear has become infected with an earworm. This is a part not under our control, so just sending in instructions to "shut up" is unlikely to be of much help (and has been shown to make it worse). Much better is to employ the inner ear in another task. If your mind is poisoned by Brittany Spears’ Toxic, for instance, then try singing Kylie Minogue’s Can’t Get You out Of My Head. Let me know if it works!

【1】According to the passage, earworms are ______.

A.songs that keep going round in our mind

D.parasites clearly under our control

A.Singing songs may get earworms out of your head.

B.Earworms are used for keeping long-term memory.

C.Humans do not have complete control over their mind.

D.You won’t suffer from earworms unless you hear the song.

【3】What does “it” in the last paragraph refer to?

A.The instruction to shut up your mind.

B.“Don’t think of the white bear” problem.

C.Kylie Minogue’s Can’t Get You out Of My Head.

D.Using the earworm-infected inner ear in another task.

【4】What is the passage mainly about?

A.The causes and influences of earworms.

B.What earworms are and how to deal with them.

C.How to clear earworms out of your head.

D.The relation between earworms and popular songs.

23、   Everyone has different ways of spending his or her free time. As for me, I usually do some reading when I have free time. I think through reading, I can discover the beauty of the world.

24、

How Can You Fight colds?

People usually catch a cold in the spring time and fall. It makes us question: if scientists can send a man to the moon, why can’t they find a treatment for the common cold? The answer is easy. There are hundreds of kinds of cold viruses(病毒) out there. You never know which one you will get, so there isn’t a treatment for each one.

When a virus attacks your body, your body works hard to get rid of it. Blood(血液) rushes into your nose and brings congestion(堵塞) with it. You feel terrible because you can’t breathe well, but in fact your body is “eating” the virus. Your temperature rises and you get a fever, but the heat(高温) of your body is beating the virus. You might also have a runny nose to stop the virus from getting to your cells(细胞). You may feel awful, but in fact your wonderful body is doing everything it can to beat the cold.

Different people have different ways to fight colds. In Canada and some other countries, for example, people might eat chicken soup to feel better. Some people take hot baths and drink warm drinks. Other people take medicines to stop the fever, congestion and runny nose.

There is one interesting thing to note — some scientists believe that taking medicines when you have a cold is really bad for you. We know that bodies can do a great job on their own. Taking medicine can make the virus stay in you longer because your body doesn’t have a way to fight it and beat it. There is a joke on taking medicine when you have a cold. It goes like this: It takes about 1 week to get over a cold if you don’t take medicine, but only 7 days to get over a cold if you take medicine.

【1】When having a cold, your body can eat the virus while ________ .

A.having congestion in the nose B.taking enough medicines

C.going to see a doctor D.drinking cold drinks

【2】According to the passage, the writer may agree that ________ .

A.eating chicken soup is the best way to treat colds in Canada

B.the virus will stay in your body shorter if you take medicine

C.having a runny nose means your cold is getting more and more serious

D.feeling bad while having a cold probably means your body is doing a good job

【3】The joke at the end of the passage means taking medicine ________.

A.is better than not taking it B.is really bad for your health

C.needs longer time to get well D.is the same with no medicine

In April next year, I am going to run the London Marathon! The London Marathon is one of the most f【1】 marathons in the world. Last year there were 36, 748 runners! Many runners choose to run for different charities, so often you can see runners in fancy dress-from people wearing clown costumes, to people dressed up as chickens, to cartoon c【2】.

I’m very excited because, although I have run half marathons before and done 5K and 10K races, I have never run a world marathon. It will be a fantastic c【3】. A marathon is over 26 miles (42 kilometres), so I have a lot of training to do before the big day!

As well as the marathon being a fitness goal. I am also running for charity. It enables me to k【6】 on because it motivates me e【7】 in winter, when it is cold and dark. I don’t always want to go out for a run, but knowing that I am supporting a good cause always helps me. Luckily, I won’t be running in fancy dress-I don’t think I have enough energy to carry a costume around the course! But I have been advised to put my name on the front of my jersey so people can cheer my name on the big day!
