18、rrier. I was trying to have as little communication as I possibly could. And I almost succeeded, until we had to introduce ourselves in front of the class.And the moment the word “international” flew out of my mouth, I was surrounded by thirty people who were asking questions one after another. I re
19、member some of the questions were “Where is Ukraine? Is it a kingdom?” “Do you have McDonalds? Does it taste the same?” and “Say something in your language”. It turned out to be the opposite of less communication, but it was so much fun.During the first three months, I certainly experienced a bit of
20、 cultural shock. I think Americans are the nicest people I have ever met in my entire life. They always smile and say, “Hi, how are you?”One day, I noticed the students looking at mesuspiciously. Finally, my classmate came up to my locker and whispered, “Is that true that you are a princess and that
21、 you came to study here so that nobody would recognize you? At one point, I even had an image of myself wearing a gown (长袍) and waving at the crowd. What?

26、all student debt reached a record of $1.6 trillion in 2019. The average person with student loan debt owed between $20,000 and $25,000. A recent Japanese government report says it has been lending over $9 billion yearly to students since 2010. Similar conditions exist in Africa and South America.Sev
27、eral factors account for high student loan debt. One is that employers everywhere have increased their demands for skilled workers, making higher education a requirement for many jobs. The students, however, after graduation, often find that their countrys economy is not strong enough to support the
28、ir financial needs, so their ability to pay back the loan becomes a problem.To solve the problem, many countries are seeking their ways. Australia has developed a system where students do not have to pay anything back until they are earning at least $40,000 a year. In America, several candidates run
29、ning for president in the 2020 election have offered more extreme solutions that all or at least some of these loans will be forgiven.Some professors in several universities recently studied what the effects of debt forgiveness might be. They found that, overall, sudden debt relief greatly improved
30、the borrowers lives. Not only did they have more money, but they were more likely to move to a new area and seek better paying work. Yet the professors research doesnt include what might happen to financial institutions or the overall economy if debt were totally forgiven. It only looks at how debt
31、forgiveness would help the borrowers. They warn of some other possible negative effects. If a borrower knew that if he ran into any trouble he would be saved because he could get the debt relief, then he might actually become more reckless with his borrowing in the future.No matter what, the profess

Whats the main idea of the text?A .Growing global student debt fuels search for solutions.B .Student loan debt is the most serious problem worldwide.C .Student loan debt tends to pull the needy out of trouble
35、.D .People hold different opinions on debt forgiveness.D Last spring, I started a new exercise class. As someone who dislikes doing jumping jacks, burpees, and push-ups, I found the workouts surprisingly enjoyable, at least for a while. But after several months, I was overly familiar with the class
36、routine, and my excitement had been replaced with boredom. A 2016 study for the American Psychological Association estimated that 63 percent of us suffer from boredom regularly. And research shows that chronically(长期地) bored people tend to fall into depression, drug abuse and anxiety. But boredom is
37、nt a character weakness. Its a state caused by something called hedonic(享乐的) adaptations, or the tendency to get used to things over time. This explains why activities and even relationships that were initially satisfying can sometimes lose their appeal. Humans are remarkably good at growing accusto
38、med to changes in our lives, both positive and negative, according to Sonja Lyubomirsky, a professor of psychology at the University of California, Riverside. This is a good thing when we are faced with adjusting to setbacks such as losing a loved one or a job. But becoming insensitive to positive e
39、vents can prove harmful. Think about the last time you got a raise, bought a car, or moved. At first, these experiences can bring immense joy. But over time, they become part of the routine. We are ready for the next new thing to excite us. While boredom can be a downer when it removes the pleasure
40、from our lives, it can provide a sort of service. “If our emotional reactions didnt weaken with time, we couldnt recognize new changes that may signal rewards or threats,” Lyubomirsky says. In other words, wed ignored cues signaling us to make important decisions about our relationships and safety.
41、Its not unlike how our reactions change when we fall in love or experience loss. Being caught in the glow of happiness or the web of sadness can make us distracted or forgetful. We may miss signals that indicate whether were about to make a smart move or a disastrous one. The good news is that under
42、standing the connection between hedonic adaptation and boredom can help us. A study published in 2018 in the Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin showed that finding unusual ways to get along with familiar people, places, and things can make everyday experiences feel exciting. In other words,
43、sometimes youve just got to shake things up!32. The author talked about his new exercise class in Paragraph 1 to _. A. introduce the topic of boredom B. show the negative effects of exerciseC.prove the significance of exercise D. encourage people to work out regularly33. What did the 2016 study find
44、 about boredom? A. Three in five people are bound to live with boredom.B.Occasional boredom has no side effects at all. C.Lasting boredom may affect people negatively. D. 63 percent of people are victims of anxiety disorder.34. What can we infer from Paragraphs 4 and 5? A. Emotional reactions result
