19、terBa magazineCa text bookDa news reportB The famous Spanish painter Pablo Picasso once said, “Every child is an artist. The problem he has is how to remain an artist once he grows up.” This is both encouraging and discouraging. The fact that we were all born to be artists is certainly exciting, and
20、 yet the reality has proven that remaining one is a task that many of us have failed.Fortunately, some people have seen the problem and want to solve it. Western educators have suggested that we introduce the concept of “STEAM” instead of “STEM” traditional “core majors” including science, technolog
21、y, engineering, and math since the “A”, which stands for “arts”, is just as important. And on April 11, Chinas Ministry of Education issued a guideline. Colleges and universities are required to provide more art-related courses and students need to earn a certain number of art credits in order to gr
22、aduate. These efforts came after many scientific studies had found that art education helps students develop self-confidence and teamwork skills, as well as habits of mind such as problem solving and critical thinking, according to The Washington Post. Its true that none of these skills target speci
23、fic jobs. But as former US ballet dancer Damian Woetzel told The Atlantic, the purpose of art is “to give kids the tools to become adults who are creative, adaptable, and expressive capable of having their eyes and ears and senses alive”. And we can now see how we lost track of our born “artist self
24、” on our way to growing up: We failed to keep our capabilities to see, hear and feel, and became blind, deaf and insensitive adults. Hopefully, art education can help turn things around. 24. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. To introduce a famous artist.B. To summarize the whole passag
25、e. C. To lead in the topic.D. To encourage us to be artists. 25. Why should the concept of “STEAM” be introduced according to western educators? A. Art is as important as traditional “core majors”. B. All of us should learn art in college. C. Traditional “core majors” are out of date. D. Western edu
26、cation is more helpful. 26. What can we predict from the guideline issued by Chinas Ministry of education? A. More art-related courses will appear in all schools. B. College students will have to gain enough art credits to graduate. C. More students will major in art at colleges and universities. D.
27、 Art will become much more important than science. 27. What is the best title of the passage? A. Every child is an artistB. Bringing art to life C. Learning from the artistsD.

28、inese people spent nearly$258 billion in total on international travel last year. Thats more than twice the combined amount spent on international travel by people from the United States and Germany, the next two biggest-spending nations. The Chinese are relative(相对的) newcomers when it comes to trav
29、eling beyond their nations borders and only a small percentage of them travel outside of China each year. Given the size of that nations population. even that small percentage represents well over 100 million Chinese travelers to foreign destinations.Yet Chinese citizens flew, on average, just 65 mi
30、les last year versus(与相对) the 227 miles flown on average by US residents(居民), the 285 miles flown on average by Germans, the 271 miles flown on average场those from the United Kingdom, and the 632 miles flown by the average Canadian last year.Chinas high total spending on international travel and its
31、low average number of miles flown on international travel may show that while only a small percentage of Chinas residents actually travel outside their homeland, those who do spend a lot of money and dont go that far. But there are reasons for Chinas low average of miles travel on international trip
32、s. A small percentage of Chinese now have enough money to travel internationally, though the number of people who do travel outside of China is growing fast every year. Besides, a large percentage of Chinese people traveling abroad stay close to home.However, as more and more Chinese gain the financ
33、ial ability to travel internationally and as Chinese become more and more interested in visiting destinations farther and farther away from home, their spending on international travel and the average distances flown will both rise rapidly.28. Why does the author suggest learning Chinese for the fut

Chinese people are more willing to travel abroad compared with Canadians.D. People going on a journey around the world hate taking international planes.30. What are many Ch

37、opeless.D. Its unclear.DSleep is essential for a persons wellbeing. Researchers have found that sleep loss increases a persons risk of developing serious medical conditions. Now, a new study has found that getting enough sleep is also the key to improving academic performance.Jeffrey Grossman, who l
38、ed the research, was not trying to find the correlation (相关性) between sleep and grades when he distributed Fitbits to the students in his class. Instead, the professor hoped the popular wrist-worn electronic device (装置), which tracks a persons activity 24/7, would how a connection between physical e
39、xercise and academic achievement.As part of the research, a quarter of the participants chose a fitness class specially created for the study. After the school term ended, the researchers carefully analyzed the data. Much to Grossmans surprise, they found no measurable difference in test performance
40、 between the group that had been physically active and the group that had not.However, the study presented a surprising viewpoint in the journal Science of Learning. Going through the large amount of data, Grossman noticed an interesting trend (走向) from the participants sleep patterns. There was a s
41、traight-line relationship between the average amount of sleep and his/her grade on the exams.Besides, it was not enough for students to just head to bed early the night before a test. Grossman says: “Weve heard the phrase Get a good nights sleep, youve got a big day tomorrow. It turns out this does
42、not relate at all to test performance. Instead, its the sleep you get during the days when learning is happening that matters most.”The time students went to bed each night was similarly important. Those who went to bed in the early hours of the morning performed poorly, even if the total sleep time
43、 was the same as a higher-performing student.The research does not prove that sleep is the only component that helps improve academic performance. However, Grossman says the results are a strong indication that sleep really matters. Who knew getting As just required some extra ZZZs?32Which of the fo

What is 5G? 36 . At its most basic level, 5G will be used to make calls, send texts, and to si
47、mply get online. But its going to be significantly faster than previous generations, and could open the door up to a range of exciting new uses. 37 5G will use new higher radio frequencies to send out data, which carry information much faster. While these higher bands are faster, they dont carry inf

Thats to say, smaller multiple input and output antennas(天线) will be used-promoting both signals and capacity(容量). 38 Why is it better than 4G?5G is expected to be faster than 4G, with some firms claiming it could be as much as 100 times quicker. The fastest 4G networks can deliver
49、peak download speeds of around 300 Mbit/s. 39 . In real life, this could allow you to download a full HD film in less than 10 seconds! 40 . It means there will be very little delay when you carry out tasks on a device. While this will help improve things like gaming experiences, it could also pave t
50、he way for safer self-driving cars-in which even a short delay could be life-saving. Finally, 5G will have a larger capacity, meaning networks will be able to deal with several apps at once. Generally, this should mean that devices have a faster, more stable connection. A. How does 5G work?B. How wi
51、ll 5G affect you?C. This means 5G will support up to 1, 000 more devices per meter than 4G. D. In comparison, 5G could offer download speeds of over 1 Gb/s. E. Therefore, the similarity between 5G and 4G technology is huge. F. 5G is short for 5th generation mobile network.G. 5G is also expected to h
