On short video application Douyin, Tian has more than 2,00
2、0 fans. So far, she has received more than 50,000 likes on the Dubsmash-like app. On her page on Douyin, Tian shares everything, from her sons daily activities, to her pet dogs, to little skits (段子) made up by her and her husband. “Making funny videos, and combining them with music is really interes
3、ting,” Tian said. “Of course, I make the videos for fun because it is quite relaxing.”Chinas short video market has seen great growth, according to a report. The report said that Chinas short video market was valued at 5.73 billion yuan ($900 million) in 2017, an increase of 184 percent. The industr
4、y value is expected to go up to the 30 billion mark in 2020. Companies like Tencent, Sohu and Iqiyi have all started providing short video content.“Short videos are popular because they are an addition to traditional audio and video content on the internet,” said Sun Jiashan with the Chinese Nationa
5、l Academy of Arts.Fans say that the short videos help them “chill out” from a stressed-out lifestyle. “My favorite videos are all about pets,” said Zhou Na, a nurse in Hefei, capital of East Chinas Anhui province. “After a whole days work, watching the 15-second videos makes me laugh, which reduces
6、my pressure.”1.Why does Tian make short videos in Douyin?A.To get fun.B.To become a well-known person.C.To attract fans.D.To record her familys routine.2.Whats Sun Jiashans opinion about short videos?A.They have huge value.B.They greatly reduce peoples pressure.C.They make peoples star dreams come t
7、rue.D.They enrich internet audio and video content.3.What does the underlined words “chill out” probably mean?A.Catch a cold.B.Feel cold.C.Calm down.D.Become concerned.4.What does the passage mainly tell us?A.Every Chinese is using Douyin.B.Chinas short video market is open.C.Douyin brings the Chine
8、se great happiness.D.Chinas short video market has developed rapidly.B Family fights are never pleasant. Whether you are dealing with a loud sister or a stubborn mom or dad, the situation can be bad. At least thats what we have learned to expect.What if it could be different? What if family fights a
9、nd conflicts could be turned into opportunities to become closer? What if problems could be solved with everyone walking away feeling more deeply cared for and loved?Family fighting is, on one level, about power. Someone is telling someone else what to do. In a short moment, emotions can be brought
10、out and the fight is on. You can go down that old road or you can try something different.In any fight, you have a need to be listened to and understood. People raise their voices and shout at each other because theyre not being listened to. Its totally unconscious. You want your mom or dad to liste
11、n and understand. But you always seem to forget the person youre fighting with has the same need to be listened to. So if you can put aside your need for a few minutes, the situation will change quickly. Give the other person some time to express his or her feelings, and you will earn your turn to b
12、e listened to.And while you are listening, you have to listen for the right information. The best way to do this in emotional situations is to forget most of the words because many people cant express what they are feeling with words alone, especially when they are upset.But if the situation starts
13、to get out of hand, it would be wise to just calm down and leave the problem until later because many fights happen at the wrong time. The situation will die down quickly, usually in less than 30 seconds. You can either move on to problem solving or reach an agreement to work on it at a better time.
14、This way, everyone will feel respected and listened to, even when there is conflict. Emotions will be understood and respected, and it will bring your family closer together.5.From the first 3 paragraphs, we can conclude that _.A.people had better avoid family fights.B.family members fight to contro
15、l each otherC.family fights can be changed into something positiveD.when family members fight, its worse as they know each others weakness6.In the authors opinion, the key to dealing with family fights is to _.A.satisfy the need to be listened to firstB.make sure that youre the first to be listened
16、toC.pay no attention to what others say in emotional situations.D.stop quarrelling when you feel you are giving orders7.When the situation gets out of control, its best to _.A.wait for a suitable moment to speakB.let the other person express their feelingsC.work on a written agreement firstD.move on
17、 to problem solvingC In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity. Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship
18、 between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their selfworth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often lifeanddeath affairs. In their singleminded pursuit of success, the development of many other human qualitie
19、s is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under c
20、ompetitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesnt matter because I really didnt try.”
21、 What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief
22、that ones selfrespect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve can we discover a new meaning in competition.8.What does this passage mainly talk about?A.Competition helps to set up
23、 selfrespect.B.Opinions about competition are different among people.C.Competition is harmful to personal quality development.D.Failures are necessary experiences in competition.9.The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 means _.A.those who try their best to winB.those who value competi
24、tion most highlyC.those who are against competition most stronglyD.those who rely on others most for success10.What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with a “desire to fail”？A.Ones worth lies in his performance compared with others.B.Ones success in competition needs great effo
25、rts.C.Ones achievement is determined by his particular skills.D.Ones success is based on how hard he has tried.11.Which point of view may the author agree to?A.Every effort should be paid back.B.Fear of failure should be removed in competition.C.Winning should be a lifeanddeath matter.D.Competition
26、should be encouraged.D Almost all cultures celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another in some way. Different cultures celebrate the beginning of a new year in different ways, and at different times on the calendar.In Western countries, people usually celebrate New Year at midnight on
27、 December 31st or January 1st. People may go to parties, sometimes dressed in formal clothes, and they may drink champagne（香槟）at midnight. During the first minutes of the new year, people cheer and wish each other happiness for the year ahead. But some cultures prefer to celebrate the new year by wa
28、king up early to watch the sunrise. They welcome the new year with the first light of the sunrise.Many cultures also do special things to get rid of bad luck at the beginning of a new year. For example, in Ecuador, families make a big doll from old clothes. The doll is filled with old newspapers and
29、 firecrackers. At midnight, these dolls are burned to show the bad things from the past year are gone and the new year can start afresh（重新）.Other common traditions to keep away bad luck in a new year include throwing things into rivers or the ocean, or saying special things on the first day of the n
30、ew year.Other New Year traditions are followed to bring good luck in the new year. One widespread Spanish tradition for good luck is to eat grapes on New Years Day. The more grapes a person eats, the more good luck the person will have in the new year. In France, people eat pancakes for good luck at
31、 New Year. In the United States, some people eat black-eyed peas for good luckbut to get good luck for a whole year you have to eat 365 of them！12.Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A. Several different New Year traditionsB. The meaning of Happy New Year!C. What to eat on New Y

36、forced to spend time with family you rarely see and dont always get along with. Or you are off from work, with more time to think troubling thoughts.
