13、 Covid-19 broke out in January and most pandemic-related lockdowns were removed in early April. By the time 618 arrived in June, the state had already stepped in to boost consumption by launching a series of digital subsidy programs over April and May.

19、Giving children music lessons wont just introduce them to musicit could also greatly improve their language skills but it isnt understood if this is a side effect of a general improvement of cognitive (认知的) skills, or something that directly affects language processing. Now, we are getting closer to
20、 an answer, thanks to a study of 74 Chinese kindergarten children, led by Robert Desimone from MIT. For the study, Desimones team chose children from the Chinese education system, with the support of education officials who wanted to see how it might improve their learning. The 4 to 5 year-old Manda
21、rin-speaking children in the study were divided into three groups. The first group received a 45-minute piano lesson three times a week, while the second group received extra reading instruction classes. The third group acted as controls, taking no extra lessons beyond their usual classes. The class
22、es lasted for six months, after which the children were tested on their ability to tell words based on differences in tones, consonants(辅音), or vowels(元音). The test results showed that the children who had taken piano lessons performed better at telling the difference between words that differ by a
23、sing leconsonant, when compared with the children who took extra reading lessons. Compared to the control group, both the music learners and the extra reading group did better in telling the difference between words based on vowel differences. “It looks like for recognising differences between sound
24、s, including speech sounds, its better than extrareading. That means schools could pay more attention to music,” Desimone says. “Its not worse than giving extra reading to the children, which is probably what many schools are trying to doget rid of the art education and just have more reading.”8.Wha
25、t does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Introducing music to children.B. Determining language ability.C. Giving children music lesson.D.

Music lessons are enough to improve students learning.DProduct placement (植入式广告) is a form of advertising in which a company pays a content creator to place its products on the set of a mov
28、ie, TV show or music video. The oldest examples of products appearing in films date back to the production of a French motion picture in 1896. Recent years have witnessed the bloom of product placement. With viewers migrating to web videos, this trend makes sense. When watching web videos, about 90%
29、 of consumers either skip or ignore those traditional ads that run before the video. So as advertisers struggle to reach potential consumers, theyre increasingly turning to product placement, spending their advertising budgets to get their ads into media content in ways that the ads cant be skipped.
30、 Studies have shown product placement can increase viewers awareness of products and their positive attitudes toward them.But not all product placement works as intended, and research has shown that advertisers need to engage in delicate dance with viewers to effectively influence them. Viewers tend
31、 to be turned off if the product placement is too obviousas when a character in the show holds the product and talks about it. Most viewers dont want to be immersed (沉浸) in an intense drama only to be reminded that theyre being targeted by corporations. In contrast, viewers are most influenced by pr
32、oduct placement in which the product or the brand name is spoken by one of the characters but not shown. These pieces of product placement are more likely to be noticed by viewers than those where products are simply shown on the screen. Also, viewers may be more attracted to product placement that
33、appears earlier in a show or movie. Because they become more engaged as a movie or a show progresses. If the placement at the climaxthe moment when their attention is fixed on what will happen nexttheyre either less likely to notice the placement or more likely to be annoyed by it if they do notice
34、it. With increasing online viewers and better designed product placement, perhaps advertisers will consider product placement as their first choice. After all, its incredibly effective at getting the targeted audience interested without influencing their viewing experience.12.What can we know about
35、product placement?A. Its still popular nowadays.B. It first appeared in TV shows.C. It was overlooked in the 1890s.D. It aims to make videos interesting.13.Whats the advantage of product placement to advertisers over traditional ads?A. It has a lower price.B. Its more interesting.C. Its less likely
36、to be ignored by viewers. D. It makes advertisers understand customers well.14.What does the underlined part “be turned off” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Gain satisfaction. B. Get confused. C. Feel funny. D. Lose interest.15.What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Product Placement: the Future Trend
37、for AdvertisingB. Product Placement: a New Driving Force Behind MoviesC. Product Placement: a Mirror of the Advertisement HistoryD. Product Placement: the Perfect Companion to Online Videos第二节（共5小题，每题2分，满分10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。Is Fresh Air Really Good for You?We all grew up h
