21、   This is what's known as a 'Buddy' or Friendship Bench'. They're needed because playgrounds can be lonely places sometimes. And these benches can help pupils feeling lonely to find a friend. Benches like this have been around for a while now in many schools. But in Ireland, they are trying to do something a bit different with them.

This school in Cork in the south of Ireland is the 247th to get one from a social enterprise called Buddy Bench Ireland that doesn't just provide schools with benches, it also runs special workshops with trained child psychiatrists（精神病专家）.They use the bench as an opportunity to start conversations about mental well-being. They talk about the importance of being aware of your feelings and those of others. The children need to understand what the bench is about, what it symbolizes--- friendship, inclusion, listening to each other and the most important thing, that it's important to express feelings.

But do children actually use the bench? It's something an independent academic study has been looking at. We found that 40% of the children told us that they had actually used the benches at the time of the study. And over 90% said that they would talk to a child if that child was sitting on the bench. So, certainly there doesn't appear to be any issues around stigma. Children's mental health at school is increasingly a concern in many countries. In Ireland, they're hoping these benches will not only tackle issues like social isolation and bullying but also give a future generation the confidence to open up about their feelings.

【1】Why the school in Cork in the south of Ireland uses the bench?

A.To start conversations about mental well-being.

B.To replace the old benches in school.

C.To cut the cost of school's facility.

D.To help children with psychological problems fully recover.

【2】What makes the bench work in Ireland schools?

A.Teachers and parents encourage children to try it.

B.Most children are willing to express feelings.

C.All the children understand what the bench is about.

D.The bench helps children get rid of loneliness.

【3】What do schools expect of the bench?

A.It will deal with social isolation and bullying completely.

B.It will motivate a future generation to bravely convey their feelings.

C.It will make children prefer the bench to old one.

D.It will spread in most schools in Ireland soon.

【4】Where is the text most likely from?

A.A fiction B.A guidebook

C.A diary D.A magazine

22、Since I let go of my ayi before the Spring Festival, I’ve been on the look-out for a new one. My WeChat groups have recommended a Home King app, which has a more poetic Chinese name that means good health at home.

This app allows you to hire an ayi to either just clean, or cook + clean + watch kids, on a one-time basis. The sessions are four hours each and start from RMB 229. If you pay for a package of 25 sessions, it’ll cost you RMB 4,999 upfront, but ultimately comes out to less than RMB 200 per session. You can choose from a morning session from 8 a.m. to noon, or an afternoon session from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m.

One benefit of using the app is that they have a small army of ayis on standby and are ready to assign one to you at any time, though they do have a tendency to book out a few days in advance. Plus, once you find one that you really like, you can take note of her name and ask for her to return next time. This service also enjoys a reputation with many locals as being professional as well as friendly.

Here are step-by-step instructions on how to hire an ayi through the app after you’ve downloaded it. After completing the registration, which is easiest by syncing with your WeChat account, you can choose either the blue button on the left for deep cleaning, or the orange button on the right for cooking, watching kids, and cleaning.

For instance, if you choose the deep-cleaning option on the left, on the next page click the second tab from the left. This lets you book an ayi for a single visit. Then click the button with the price on it to book your time slot (时段). Click the Buy Now button in the bottom right of the next page and click through the options until you get to the final page, where you’ll have to choose the date and time. To ensure how reliable the service is, a short message is always sent to you for confirmation.

【1】How much can you save at least if you pay for a package of 25 sessions?

A．RMB200.

B．RMB726.

C．RMB126.

D．RMB800.

A．they can receive free service by putting down the ayi’s name

B．they can easily download the app by one click

C．they can get a 40% discount if booking ahead of time

B．②①③④

C．①②④③

D．④①②③

23、In 2007, a group of researchers began testing a concept that seems, at first blush, as if it would never need testing: whether more happiness is always better than less. The researchers asked college students to rate their feelings from “unhappy” to “very happy” and compared the results with academic and social outcomes. Though the “very happy” participants had the best social lives, they performed worse in school than those who were merely “happy.”

As with everything in life, happiness has its trade-offs. It may give you a life that you find you don’t want, one in which you don’t reach your full potential, you’re reluctant to take risks, and you choose short-lived pleasures over challenging experiences that give life meaning.

The way to understand the study above is not to deny that happiness is good; rather, it is to remember that a little bit of unhappiness has benefits. The author Emmy Gut argued in 1989 that some depressive symptoms can be a functional response to problems in the environment, leading us to pay appropriate attention and come up with solutions. In other words, when we are sad about something, we may be more likely to fix it. Psychologists call this the “analytical rumination hypothesis”.

Obviously, this is not to argue that clinical depression is good — misery can quickly make people incapable of solving problems. Rather, the analytical rumination hypothesis is evidence that getting rid of bad feelings does not necessarily make us more effective in our tasks. And if these emotions can help us assess threats, it stands to reason that too much good feeling can lead us to disregard them. The literature on substance use suggests that this is so: In some people, very high degrees of positive emotion have been connected to dangerous behaviors such as alcohol and drug use and binge eating.

So though suffering should never be anyone’s goal, each of us can fight for a rich life in which we not only seek the sunshine but fully experience the rain that unavoidably falls as well.

【1】What can be concluded from the 2007 study about happiness?

A．More happiness is always better.

B．Full happiness is not totally beneficial.

C．People should avoid happiness to lead a meaningful life.

D．Very happy subjects perform better than merely happy ones.

【2】What do we know about analytical rumination hypothesis?

A．People who are sad are not likely to take risks.

B．Bad feelings like depression might help solve problems.

C．People with depressive symptoms tend to ignore threats.

D．Clinical depression can lead to effective task performance.

【3】Which of the following would the author probably agree?

A．We should avoid good feelings.

B．A risky life is going to bring disappointment.

C．Happiness itself would lose its meaning without misfortune.

D．Dislike to happiness can lead us to abandon a meaningful life.

24、The Dead Sea might be the most famous salty body in the world, but it’s by no means the only one. Here, we uncover some other salt lakes around the world.

Salt Sea

The most famous of the lot—the Salt Sea—is a natural place to start. It’s technically not a sea at all, but a land salt lake. Its waters are mainly drawn from the Jordan River, and the high salinity (盐度) means no life can survive here, so don’t expect any colorful fish. However, much amusement results from the sea’s buoyancy (浮力): bring some reading material to the waters and lie back. Nature will do the rest.

Lake Assal

Surrounded by black volcano rocks, Lake Assal takes the title of being the lowest point in Africa. Vast salt fields mark its edges; the lake has long been at the center of the area’s salt trade, on which the region’s African locals still rely. Though the area might not be suitable to live in, the waters are rich in minerals and related to health benefits.

Don Juan Pond

Don Juan Pond might not win any prizes for its beauty—at four inches deep, it’s little more than a pond, but worth visiting. Its salinity content of almost 40 percent makes it one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth, meaning it doesn’t freeze even when Antarctic temperatures drop to -50℃. And with suggestions that water in a similar form could exist on Mars, there’s more than one reason for scientists to study this fascinating dry, cold environment.

Great Salt Lake

The biggest salt lake in the western hemisphere (半球) and the one that gave Salt Lake City its name, the Great Salt Lake finds its home in northern Utah. What makes the lake well-known is not only the lake’s blue and green waters and white-sand beaches, but Great Salt Lake State Park and Antelope Island State Park both offer super hiking and biking trails, and great long views.

【1】What can you do in the Salt Sea?

A．Appreciate some colorful fishes.

B．Experience floating on the water.

C．Enjoy fascinating natural views.

D．Witness the eruption of volcanoes.

【2】What do we know about Lake Assal?

A．It’s known for being the world’s lowest point.

B．It plays a significant role in local economy.

C．It’s one of the saltiest water bodies on Earth.

D．It attracts scientists to study its environment.

【3】Which place would you go to if you like taking outdoor exercise?

A．Salt Sea.

B．Lake Assal.

C．Don Juan Pond.

D．Great Salt Lake.
