19、informal and detailed C. brief and targeted D. academic and qualified B My husband jokes with me that my midlife crisis was having my now 11-year-old daughter in my 40s. I started my career as Associate Editor at Womans World magazine in the late 1990s. Then I was a magazine editor-in-chief for five

20、 national consumer publications and also contributed to magazines like Longevity and New Woman. Four years after getting married in 2005, I eventually gave birth to my daughter, Crystal. As I wrote on P: “As the doctor checked her vital organs and my husband counted her 10 perfect fingers and toes,

21、I realized that my body had produced a wonder.” While my peers were dealing with the stresses of kids in school, I focused my creative energy on carving out my new identity. I was excited when I was offered a “Moms Talk” column where I wrote about toys, breastfeeding, and my ongoing(追求) for “baby-fr

22、ee” time. When Crystal was 3 years old, I wrote an essay about watching her dance at a toddler(学 步的小孩) reading group at the library, instead of sitting down with the other children. I expected her performance to annoy people, but her joyful dancing attracted them and made me consider my own possibil

23、ities. “Had I ever been that way, I wondered. If so, could I be like that again? Could I become as free as a child with her whole life ahead of her, ready and willing to be the star of her own production?” As my daughter transformed from a toddler into a young girl, she continued to be my inspiratio

24、n. I wrote about the new rules for babysitting and shared research showing that fathers who participated in housework had a positive impact on their daughters future success on The Washington Post. I focused on providing Crystal with resilience-building(韧性) when she neared her teens. I wrote about p

25、owerful phrases for The Week, like “no one is the judge of your self-worth”.

29、ing a cherry-red Tesla Roadster(特斯拉敞篷车) through space, has made his closest approach ever to Mars. The electric roadster and its passenger were attached to the top of a Falcon Heavy rocket during the SpaceX rockets first test launch on 6 February 2018. Two years later, the Falcon Heavy rocket and th

30、e vehicle at its tip are making their second trip around the Sun. Mr. McDowell, a Harvard astrophysicist, found that Starman passed 7.4 million kilometers from Mars at 06:25 GMT 7 October, 2020. The closest recent approach between the Earth and Mars was 56 million kilometers in 2003, though the plan

31、ets are often hundreds of millions of miles apart depending on where they are in their orbits. No one can see the Falcon Heavy rocket at its current distance, but orbits over periods of a few years are fairly straightforward to predict, and Mr. McDowell used data about how the rocket was moving when

32、 it left the Earths gravity behind to locate its recent movements exactly. Last time Starman circled the Sun, McDowell said, it crossed Mars orbit while the Red Planet was quite far away. But this time the crossing lined up with a fairly close approach, though still not close enough to feel a strong

33、 tug from Mars. At this point in time, if you were able to go look at the Roadster, it would probably look pretty different. The strong solar radiation environment between the planets would probably have destroyed all the exposed organic materials. Without the Earths atmospheric and magnetic(磁场的) pr

34、otection, even the plastics and carbon-fibre materials would start to break up. Over the course of decades or centuries, the car will end up with its aluminium(铝) frame and hard glass parts-thats assuming that none of them get destroyed in impacts with passing space rocks. 28, What can we infer from

35、 the first two paragraphs? A. Starman is now circling around the Earth in its orbit. B. Starman has set out on its second trip around the Sun. C. Starman has traveled 7.4 million kilometers after launch. D. Starman still has a long way to go before getting to Mars. 29. How did McDowell manage to loc

36、ate Starman? A. By keeping Starman under visual observation. B. By predicting its future orbit around the earth. C. By seeking professional help from SpaceX. D. By analyzing data about the rockets movement. 30. The underlined word “tug” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _. A. pull B. drive C.

37、resistance D. pressure 31. What will happen to Starman in decades or centuries? A. It is circling around Mars and will finally crash onto it. B. It will finish its mission and return to SpaceX on earth. C. Starman is likely reduced to at most its frame and glass. D. SpaceX will try to recover it dur

38、ing its next space mission. D Social media is taking over our lives: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and now, TikTok. These social media platforms have transformed from a way to stay connected to an industry where even kids can make money off their posts. While this may seem like another opportunistic

39、innovation, its really full of hidden false realities. The median income(中位收入) recorded in the United States of America was about $63,000 in 2018. TikTokers can make anywhere from $50,000 to $150,000 for a TikTok brand partnership, and TikTokers with over a million followers can make up to $30,000 a

40、 month-$360,000 a year. They are making more than the average person trying to feed their family and keep a roof over their heads, simply by posting a 15-second video. This is mad in more ways than one. Not only is it an overpaid “job”, it promotes undeserved admiration from viewers and a false sens

41、e of reality. Many of these famous TikTokers are still teens, and the effects of fame at such an early stage in life might cause issues later in life, such as mental illness. Teens between the ages of 13 and 17 make up 27% of TikTok viewers, who can be easily influenced by what they are watching. Th

42、ey can put a false sense of self-value into who they look up to and what they represent: money, fame, being considered conventionally attractive. While TikTok has become a great tool for marketing, its important to understand how this content affects young viewers. If were constantly consuming conte

43、nt that hsows us all we need to do to be successful is be conventionally attractive and post a 15-second video featuring a new dance, it will challenge our knowledge of what really makes someone successful and will in turn affect our individual work ethics(伦理). What about the people who miss birthda

44、ys and family holidays due to their jobs and arent getting paid nearly as much as these TikTokers? Richard Colyer, president and creator of Metaphor, Inc., had his own view on this issue. “It sounds great that kids can make money for doing the latest dance moves in a 15-second video, but we should f

45、eed the minds of kids and not just their bank accounts. TikTok can be great if used properly. Money alone is not good, technology alone is not good and connectedness can be bad if its only online.” Again, as a fellow consumer of TikTok, I do enjoy the app when I have some time to kill and need a goo

46、d laugh. Im not against someone making a living on entertainment, but what does getting famous of a 15-second video teach young people? 32. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. Social networking. B. Making money on social media. C. A job offered by TikTok. D. Staying conn

47、ected to the Internet. 33. Which is the possible influence of TikTok on its young users? A. They tend to live an adult life too soon. B. They are forced to pay for certain services. C. They may abandon other social media. D. They are likely to develop false values. 34. What can we infer from Richard

48、 Colyers comments? A. TikTok can be a positive influence if teens employ it wisely. B. Young TikTokers should be banned form making money. C. It is better to involve education on investment in TikTok videos. D. Contents of videos need checking before their release online. 35. Which of the following

49、might be the best title of the passage? A. Say No to TikTok. B. Join Young TikTokers C. TikTok-A Mine of Money D. A Job vs An Entertainment 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多 余选项。 If you think youre a pessimist and theres no hope of ever turning it around, then think again!
