阅读短文，并按题目要求用英语回答问题。

I received a private message on Facebook。 It began harmlessly enough: "Hey, girl. Wanted to invite you to join my next challenge group ——we'll be focusing on fitting in 30 minutes of exercise and balanced nutrition.”

It was all becoming too much. Facebook was running my life, not me.

But what killed Facebook for me was when I posted a photo, and five minutes later my son asked me how many "likes" it had got. His question was a wake-up call.

"Likes" arc signs of acceptance and approval. I had forgotten that acceptance and approval need to come from within and had unknowingly set him a bad example.

Before Facebook, surfing the internet was an occasional distraction and I spent a lot more time reading books and magazines. I checked in with friends through texts, emails and phone calls.

To recreate the simplicity of those days and set a healthier example for my son, I deactivated my Facebook account.

I'd been in the habit of checking Facebook many times a day, so I had to come up with some new habits. I carried a novel and a crossword puzzle book around with me. I rediscovered knitting（针织）. I started taking yoga classes.

I started to remember a few things. My body is fine just the way it is. I have friends who will help me out when I'm in trouble, and I will help them out. I do my best to be a good mother, and our son is happy and healthy. We are very lucky to be able to afford two vacations a year.

I stopped looking at the world through my cellphone. I felt pleasant at the moment.

The break left me feeling better about myself, my family, my home and my life.

After a few weeks, I returned to Facebook. Now I look at the photos of my friends, kids growing up and treasure how social media allows me to keep in touch with family for and wide. I look in on a daily basis, but no longer with the desire constantly to post updates.

It is not an addiction any more.

1.When the author's son asked her how many “likes" it had got, what's the author's reaction to the question? （no more than 10 words）

2.The underlined word “deactivate" in Paragraph 6 mean in English? (I word)

On March 6, Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love posted an article titled Everyone is Going Through Something on the website The Players’ Tribune. In the article, the 29-year-old revealed how he suffered from his first panic attack in a game against the Atlanta Hawks and why he was so worried about sharing his story with the public.

Love identified that what keeps people from speaking up about their mental health challenges is the fear that many people see them as a weakness.　 “Growing up, you figure out really quickly how a boy is supposed to act. You learn what it takes to ‘be a man’. It’s like a playbook: Be strong. Don’t talk about your feelings. Get through it on your own,” he wrote.

And being an NBA player made his situation even more difficult. Love was afraid to share his struggles because he didn’t want his Cavaliers teammates to think that he was unreliable.

However,　 as　 it　 turned　 out,　 Love’s　 teammates　 understood　 and　 supported　 him.　 Cleveland superstar LeBron James even wrote on social media that Love is “even more powerful now than ever before”.

For Love, it was a journey of empowerment to accept and address his mental illness and share his experience with millions of people who face the same problems. In fact, he was inspired to talk

about his situation by Toronto Raptors shooting guard (得分后卫) DeMar DeRozan, who had also opened up about his mental health issues.

Last month, the 28-year-old told the Toronto Sun that despite being a top-performing and wealthy NBA player, he still deals with constant blues. “It’s one of the things that no matter how indestructible (坚不可摧的) we look like we are, we’re all human at the end of the day,” he said. “Sometimes it brings out the best of you when everything in the whole world gets on top of you.”

1.What problem did Love have according to the author? ( No more than　 8　 words )

2.According to Love, why was it more difficult for him to speak up about his problem? ( No more than　 11 words )

3.How did Love's teammates react after Love shared his story? ( No more than 9 words )

4.How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? ( No more than 11 words )

5.How does the author’s story inspire you to overcome weaknesses in life? Put it in your own words. ( No more than 20 words )

On a foggy Monday morning in May 2016, 14 Amsterdam officials, engineers and civil servants gathered nervously at Alexanderplein --- a busy crossroads near the city centre with three streetcar lines --- where many people were walking, driving, and, as in any Dutch city, riding bicycles. All of a sudden, the traffic controls were shut off for all transport modes, in all directions.

This live pilot project is part of a larger mobility strategy across the city to make more room for cyclists and pedestrians. That means limiting access and space for private vehicles. “Amsterdam's public space is limited,” says the vice mayor for traffic, Pieter Litjens, who finally approved the pilot. “We need to be thoughtful and strategic about who and what uses that space.”

In the weeks before the lights were shut off, 200 cyclists were interviewed in the morning and evening. A majority of them disliked the crossroads and made complaints. When asked whether the traffic lights were necessary, about a third said "absolutely yes," only 5% said absolutely not, and the majority was uncertain. It was clearly a question they had never thought about.

When the lights were turned off, about 150 cyclists were interviewed. We found that not only did fewer people dislike this crossroads, but about 60% said the traffic situation had improved.

All interviewees spoke more about human interaction. “People pay more attention,” said one man. “It’s amazing that it regulates itself,” said a young woman. "It's a bit scary, but you never have to stop and nobody is grumpy," said a teenager. But no one could really further explain why or how.

Behaviour was noticeably different. Most cyclists slowed down as they approached the crossroads, and communicated to other cyclists and motorists using eyes, gestures, expressions and voices. In one incident, a mother carrying her child on a front seat slowly entered the crossroads. When she was halfway across, a car approached from the right. Traffic signs indicate priority for the car driver, but instead, the mother made eye contact with the driver, both smiled, and the car driver yielded.

1.Why was the pilot project carried out in Amsterdam? (no more than 10 words)

2.What did most cyclists who were interviewed think of the pilot project? (no more than 12 words)

3.What does the underlined word "yielded" (the last paragraph) probably mean?(no more than 2 words)

4.Why does the writer mention the mother and the driver in the last paragraph? (no more than 8 words)

5.Do you think the traffic lights can be turned off in Tianjin? Please give your reason. (no more than 20 words)

Why not carry on her good work？

I enjoyed English，biology，and chemistry at school，but which one should I choose to study at university？I did not know the answer until one evening when I sat down at the computer to do some research on great women of China.

By chance I came across an article about a doctor called Lin Qiaozhi，a specialist in women's diseases. She lived from 1901 to 1983. It seemed that she had been very busy in her chosen career，traveling abroad to study as well as writing books and articles. One of them caught my eye. It was a small book explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies. She gave some simple rules to follow for keeping babies clean，healthy and free from sicknees. Why did she write that？Who were the women that Lin Qiaozhi thought needed this advice？I looked carefully at the text and realized that it was intended for women in the countryside. Perhaps if they had an emergency they could not reach a doctor.

Suddenly it hit me how difficult it was for a woman to get medical training at that time. That was a generation when girls' education was always placed second to boys. Was she so much cleverer than anyone else? Further reading made me realize that it was hard work and determination as well as her gentle nature that got her into medical school. What made her succeed later on was the kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients. There was story after story of how Lin Qiaozhi, tired after a day's work, went late at night to deliver a baby for a poor family who could not pay her.

By now I could not wait to find out more about her. I discovered that Lin Qiaozhi had devoted her whole life to her patients and had chosen not to have a family of her own. Instead she made sure that about 50,000 babies were safely delivered. By this time I was very excited. Why not study at a medical college like Lin Qiaozhi and carry on her good work？It was still not too late for me to improve my studies，prepare for the university entrance examinations，and ……

1.When and where did the author read the article about Lin Qiaozhi？（no more than 5 words）

2.For what purpose did Lin Qiao zhi write a little book about how to look after babies？（no more than 20 words）

3.What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph mean？（no more than 10 words）

4.What does the author think are the most important qualities that a successful doctor should have？（no more than 5 words）

5.Do you think the author will study at a medical college？Why or why not？（no more than 20 words）

Hunter Shamatt lost his wallet while he was on a Frontier Airlines flight from Omaha. Upon realizing that his wallet was lost, he contacted the airline to see if anyone had turned it in, but to no avail. Since the wallet contained his ID, a signed paycheck, his debit card, and $60 in cash, he “feared the worst”.

Shortly after the flight, however, Hunter was surprised to receive a package in the mail from an anonymous(匿名的) sender. Inside was his wallet— along with an additional $40 in cash. “I rounded your cash up to an even $100 so you could celebrate getting your wallet back. Have fun!!!”, read a letter that was enclosed with the package.　

Hunter’s mother, Jeannie, posted a photo of the letter to social media in hopes that they would be able to track down the sender and thank him for his kindness. All they could know was that the sender’s initials were signed: “T.B”.

The good sender was later identified as Todd Brown, a father-of-five who was delighted at the chance to “have a little fun” with helping out a hard-working stranger.

“I saw he was just a kid, 20 years old, he had a paycheck in there, so I figured, ‘Well, he’s doing his best to make ends meet.’” Brown told Yahoo Lifestyle.

“Hunter was very thankful. He told me he has some student loans and a car payment that he needed to make so the timing was right,” Brown added. “They assumed it was gone forever. So when he opened it, he just started screaming, ‘No way! No way!’”

Brown says that he often tries to do good deeds without any recognition and that’s why he neglected to sign his full name on the letter, but Jeannie later insisted on praising the sender on social media.

“This story is more about restoring faith in people than anything. I personally want to thank Todd Brown for restoring faith that there are amazing people out there and that the world is not as cruel as it’s being made out to be.” she wrote on Facebook.

1.Where did Hunter lose his wallet?（no more than 10 words）

2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 probably mean?（no more than 5 words）

3.What did Todd Brown do after finding the wallet?（no more than 15 words）

A young lady was standing on the corner with a map in her hand. She looked puzzled. Several people passed by, looked at her but did not stop. I wondered why. Maybe it was because of the way she was dressed. She wore a dirty dress and looked pale.

As I crossed the street and came closer to her I asked if she wanted help. She thanked me and smiled in relief. As it turned out she was looking for the hospital. I felt wonderful just reaching out, and taking that extra moment to help.

Many times in these situations I end up walking a person to where he or she is going when giving directions would be too complicated. I like helping people this way due to my own experience. Many years ago, we travelled in Japan and needed directions. A kind Japanese who saw our problem came to us and helped us out. This man just took my heavy bags and guided us to where we needed to be. We could not speak any Japanese while the man could not speak any English. Although we could not communicate through words, we communicated through the heart.

Sometimes when I do a special favor for a stranger, the person will say, “I hope I can do something for you one day to return the favor.” They already have done something for me by giving me the opportunity to help them. But I hope that when they come across a situation where someone needs their help, they will be willing to reach out as well.

【1】Classroom programs designed to improve elementary school students' social and emotional skills can also increase reading and math achievement, even if academic improvement is not a direct goal of the skills building, according to a study to be published this month in American Educational Research Journal.

【2】The benefit holds true for students across a range of social-economic backgrounds. In the study, "Efficacy of the Responsive Classroom Approach: Results from a Three Year, Longitudinal Randomized Controlled Trial," the researchers looked specifically at Responsive Classroom (RC), a widely-used social and emotional learning intervention(介入方式).

【3】The study is among just a handful of randomized controlled trials that have examined the effect of social and emotional learning interventions on student achievement.

【4】"We find that at the very least, supporting students' social and emotional growth in the classroom does not interfere with academic learning," said Rimm-Kaufman, professor at the University of Virginia Curry School of Education. "When teachers receive adequate levels of training and support, using practices that support students' social and emotional growth actually boosts achievement."

【5】Math and reading gains were similar among those students who qualified for free and reduced-priced lunch and those who were not.

【6】"The success of many curricula(课程)requires that teachers use effective classroom management and develop student confidence and autonomy(自主)," said Rimm-Kaufman. "Our trial of the Responsive Classroom approach suggests that teachers who take the time to foster relationships in the classroom and support children's self-control actually promote student achievement."

【7】"In a time of intense academic demands, many critics question the value of spending time on teaching social skills, building classroom relationships and supporting student autonomy," said Rimm-Kaufman. "Our research shows that time spent supporting children's social and emotional abilities can be a very wise investment."
