I remember from a young age being attracted by the world around me. Whenever I observed my surroundings, I would always wonder about what they were made of. 16.After a little time had passed, this curiosity was developed by my high school chemistry teacher, which was finally furthered as I got my doctor's degree in chemistry while I was at university. From that time on, I have continuously developed my understanding and have been working in the chemical industry. It has been a decade now and my interest in chemistry has never dropped off. 17. And I have improved my understanding in this field of study.
In this day and age, as a means to continuously increase an interest in the natural sciences in your child, labs are available that provide an ideal learning environment for modern students. 18. In the lab, your children can do a great job of discovering this fascinating field of study. Designing a simple science project lab with education in mind is possible with home chemistry labs that can be bought from respected colleges or universities.
Science jobs in these subjects are and will continue to be required by industry and society. 19.One of the most important ways parents can help their children develop an interest in mathematics, science, and technology is by showing attitudes and values that support learning.20.The sooner the children begins to learn about a field of study, the more prepared they will be to face the challenges that these subjects might offer.
A.These days, you can make a home chemistry lab.
B.Instead, it has increased as I have continued to learn.
C.Encourage your children to find out about different jobs.
D.They require great attention to details, teamwork and skills.
E.A particular field of study which I was most interested in was chemistry.
F. Help children see mathematics, science and technology that exist around them.

What makes you cry? Being moved by a sad movie, waving a loved one off, or getting emotional after splitting up with your partner can all cause tears to roll down our faces. 16.
When you think about it, shedding tears from your eyes can cause embarrassment or confusion. But it seems to be an automatic reaction when we get sad or upset. 17. However, the feeling is the same – your cheeks puff up, your eyes tighten and before you know it, tears are streaming down your face. Some of us may weep a little while others might cry like a baby.
A study in the UK in 2017 found that women admitted they cry 72 times a year. This was, on average, more than men. Adam Rutherford, lead researcher, says that the result has been pretty much consistent with previous research.18.Are they just more embarrassed about showing their true feelings? The debate continues.
One place where we experience emotional and tearful outbursts is in the workplace.19. Someone might be stressed with a heavy workload. And, as therapist Joanna Cross put it, “crying is often a build-up of frustration and undealt-with situations and it’s a bit of a final straw moment.” She describes how someone might start weeping when they’re just asked to make a cup of tea. Actually, their stress has accumulated to the breaking point.
But crying in the office or elsewhere can be an effective stress reliever. It can actually make you feel better.20.Crying your eyes out shows others how you feel, so perhaps it’s a crying shame that more of us, particularly men, don’t cry more often.
A.Then how do we cope with it?
B.This can be where emotions run high.
C.People reach their breaking point in different ways.
D.We all have the power to cry, but is that a good thing?
E. Maybe it dissolves or clears the negative feelings you’ve had.
F. What brings about this reaction differs from person to person.
G. But does this mean men don’t get as upset or emotional as women?

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。
Language Learning
Learning a new language can be tricky at any age. But in a recent study, scientists have pinpointed the exact age at which your chances of reaching fluency in a new language seem to quickly drop off: 10. Does this mean you should quit your French class if you’re older than 10? Non!
16. It found that it’s “nearly impossible” to reach fluency if you start learning a language after age 10. That’s not because language skills start to go downhill. “You’re still learning fast,” says Joshua Hartshorne, one of the study’s coauthors. “It’s just that you run out of time, because your ability to learn starts dropping at around 17 or 18 years old.” People who start learning a new language after age 10 may still become quite good, the authors say. 17.
Kids may be better than adults at learning new languages for many reasons. Children’s brains are more adaptable than those of adults. 18. “All learning involves the brain changing,” Hartshorne says. “Children’s brains seem to be a lot more good at changing.” Kids may also be more willing than adults to try new things. And while adults tend to fall back on the rules and patterns of their first language, kids are able to approach a new one with a blank slate.
19. It promised to guess people’s native language, dialect, and home country, based on their responses to English grammar questions. At the end of the quiz, people entered their actual native language. They also reported if and when they had learned any other languages and where they had lived. Nearly 670,000 people took the quiz. Analyzing people’s responses and grammar mistakes allowed them to draw conclusions about language learning.
The findings also offer ideas for adults hoping to pick up a new language. 20. Moving to a place where your chosen language is spoken all the time is the best way for adults to learn. Learners of all ages can search out native speakers in their community to talk with. By creating an immersive environment, it’s possible to become good at speaking a new language.
A.Now that’s worth talking about!
B.But they are unlikely to become fluent.
C.The study appeared in the journal Cognition.
D.For the study, the researchers created an online quiz.
E. This means they’re better able to respond to new information.
F. This gave researchers huge amounts of data from English speakers of many ages and backgrounds.
G. Researchers found that people did better when they learned by immersion rather than only in a classroom.

这是一篇说明文。学习一门新语言在任何年龄都是很棘手的。但在最近的一项研究发现:如果你从10岁以后就开始学习一门语言,那么你“几乎不可能”达到流利程度。原因是儿童的大脑比成人的更有适应性,他们能更好地对新信息做出反应。研究人员还发现人们通过浸入式学习比仅仅在教室里学习效果更好。
16.根据后文It found that it’s “nearly impossible” to reach fluency if you start learning a language after age 10.可知研究发现,如果你从10岁以后就开始学习一门语言,那么你“几乎不可能”达到流利程度。后文是指一项研究的结论,故本句应是说明这项研究发表在《认知》杂志上。It对应C选项中的the study。故选C。
17.根据上文People who start learning a new language after age 10 may still become quite good, the authors say. 作者说,10岁以后开始学习一门新语言的人可能仍然会变得相当好。结合本句第二句中提到的如果你从10岁以后就开始学习一门语言,那么你“几乎不可能”达到流利程度。可知10岁学习新语言即使会变得相当好,但是还是不可能会变得流利。故选B。
18.根据上文Children’s brains are more adaptable than those of adults.可知儿童的大脑比成人的更有适应性。下文应提到这一情况带来的影响是:这意味着他们能更好地对新信息做出反应。其中This指代上文整件事。故选E。
19.根据下文At the end of the quiz, people entered their actual native language.中根据quiz可知研究人员创建了一个测试。故选D。
20.根据下文Moving to a place where your chosen language is spoken all the time is the best way for adults to learn. 对于成年人来说,搬到一个你所选择的语言一直被使用的地方是最好的学习方法。即可知在所选择语言一直被使用的地区有助于人们进行浸入式学习,这比仅仅在教室里学习效果更好。故选G。

If you think grandparents like recalling the good old days, you’re in for a surprise. According to a recent survey, most think nostalgia just isn’t what it used to be. 16. The Internet, cheap foreign travel, cars, healthcare and television are among developments that make life better today, although they do say PPI telemarketing calls, junk mails and bad manners make them cross.
Richard Drew, from the estate agent Retirement move—which carried out the survey, said, Grandparents don’t seem to want to turnback time.17. They also show the opinion older people think everything used to be better isn’t true. Retirement may have come with a little anxiety in the past. Nowadays, however, it’s rightfully something to look forward to. 18.
The study found nearly eight in ten Grandparents say the Internet has improved life thanks to online shopping, offering new ways of communicating and online banking. It’s not just shopping online that’s had a positive impact—shops are better now too.
19. A third of those polled say films are of a higher standard now. Slightly less than a third think they are worse now. More than 50 per cent said TV has improved and just under half prefer today’s radio.
Although almost half said life is better now compared to when they were in their twenties, this didn’t stop Grandparents complaining about manners, traffic and driving etiquette. 20. A third on the list gave the word “optimistic”.
A.Opinions on films differed great.
B.Many of them are fond of watching film.
C.The results suggest there’s never been a greater time to be retire.
D.The main reason is that technology makes their life more comfortable.
E. Almost six in ten said their quality of life was better than their parents.
F. It is mainly because of the advances in technology, healthcare and more.
G. When asked to use words to describe today’s life, they chose “stressful” and “selfish”.

这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了老年人对于现代生活的态度。大部分受访的老年人认为,高科技改变了生活质量,给生活来了便利和乐趣,他们普遍认为现在的生活比他们父辈那时的生活要好。
16.根据上文“According to a recent survey, most think nostalgia just isn’t what it used to be.(根据最近的一项调查,大多数人认为怀旧已经不是以前那样了)”以及后文“The Internet, cheap foreign travel, cars, healthcare and television are among developments that make life better today, although they do say PPI telemarketing calls, junk mails and bad manners make them cross.(互联网、廉价的国外旅行、汽车、医疗保健和电视等发展让今天的生活变得更好,尽管他们确实说PPI的电话推销、垃圾邮件和不礼貌的行为让他们很生气)”可知,上文提到了一项调查表显示大多数人认为怀旧与过去不同了,后文则提到了一些改善了如今生活质量的事物,可推测本句为承接上文继续说明调查表中其他人对如今生活质量的看法。故E选项“近十分之六的人说他们的生活质量比他们的父母好”符合语境,故选E。
17.根据上文“Richard Drew, from the estate agent Retirement move—which carried out the survey, said, Grandparents don’t seem to want to turnback time.(房地产经纪公司“退休行动”的Richard Drew开展了这项调查。他说,祖父母们似乎不想让时光倒流)”以及后文“They also show the opinion older people think everything used to be better isn’t true. Retirement may have come with a little anxiety in the past. Nowadays, however, it’s rightfully something to look forward to.(他们还表明,老年人认为过去一切都更好的观点是不正确的。在过去,退休可能伴随着一点焦虑。然而,如今,这是值得期待的事情)”可知,上文提到了一项“退休行动”,后文则说明了老年人如今对退休的看法,可知本句承接上文说明这项调查的结果,C选项中retire对应上文中Retirement。故C选项“结果表明,现在是退休的最佳时机”符合语境,故选C。
18.根据上文“Retirement may have come with a little anxiety in the past. Nowadays, however, it’s rightfully something to look forward to.(在过去,退休可能伴随着一点焦虑。然而,如今,这是值得期待的事情)”可知,上文提到了“退休生活值得期待”,可知本句该是说明原因,对空前信息进行解释。故F选项“这主要是因为技术、医疗保健等方面的进步”符合语境,故选F。
19.根据后文“A third of those polled say films are of a higher standard now. Slightly less than a third think they are worse now. More than 50 per cent said TV has improved and just under half prefer today’s radio. (三分之一的受访者表示,现在的电影水平更高了。略少于三分之一的人认为他们现在更糟糕。超过50%的人认为电视的质量有所提高,近一半的人更喜欢现在的收音机)”可知,后文主要说明的是人们对电影的看法,A选项中films对应后文中films。故A选项“对电影的看法分歧很大”符合语境,故选A。
20.根据上文“Although almost half said life is better now compared to when they were in their twenties, this didn’t stop Grandparents complaining about manners, traffic and driving etiquette.(尽管近一半的人表示,与20多岁时相比,现在的生活更好了,但这并不能阻止祖父母们抱怨举止、交通和驾驶礼仪)”以及后文“A third on the list gave the word “optimistic”.(“乐观”一词名列第三)”可知,后文提到了“乐观”一词被用来描述生活,G选项中words对应后文中the word。故G选项“当被要求用词语来描述今天的生活时,他们选择了‘有压力的’和‘自私的’”符合语境,故选G。

Reducing class size has traditionally been seen as an important way to improve a student’s educational experience. Many often believe that smaller classes would permit teachers to give more personal attention to their students. 16..
But one recent study suggests there's not much research-based evidence to support this idea. The research was collected by a team from Denmark's Danish Center for Social Science Research.
The study notes that one of the main problems with reducing class size is that it can have very high costs.17.. Financial limitations make it very difficult for many schools to reduce the number of students in the classroom.
The new study began by examining 127 studies on classroom size. Its goal was to examine the major research studies already completed on the subject. 18.. In the end, the research centered on 10 main studies with possible sampling (采样)problems.
The researchers concluded that there's some evidence to suggest that reducing class size may lead to some improvement in a student 's reading achievement. 19.. They found just a 53-percent chance that a randomly selected test score from a student from a small class would be higher than the selected score of a student from a larger class. 20.. This led the researchers to conclude that there would be no benefit at all to math students in a smaller class size.
A.But they said the effect is very small
B.For mathematics achievement, the result was 49 percent
C.This can theoretically lead to improved academic results for students
D.Many public opinion studies have shown teachers favor smaller class sizes
E. The effects of larger class size can stay long after the students complete their education
F. Increasing class size is one of the most common ways school systems control education spending
G. They especially centered on those trying to measure if smaller class size led to greater academic success

这是一篇说明文。减少班容量传统上被认为可以提高学生的成绩。但新的研究发现,班容量小可能会提高部分学生的阅读成绩,但对于学生的数学成绩来说,没有明显的作用。
16.上一句提到:减小班容量可以使老师们给学生更多的关注。该句承接上文,应该继续介绍这么做的好处,故C选项切题:这从理论上可以提高学生的学习成绩。C选项中的This指代上一句的内容。
17.根据上一句中的“it can have very high costs”和下一句中的“Financial limitations make it very difficult”可知,该段介绍的是班容量和成本方面的关系,选项中只有F选项和此有关,故F选项切题:提高班容量是学校控制教育费用的常见的方式之一。
18.该空前面介绍的新研究的对象和目的。那么,该空仍然要介绍新研究的相关内容,故G选项切题。该空主要介绍新研究的重点:他们特别关注那些试图衡量班级规模是否会带来更大学术成就的研究。下一句中的“10 main studies”亦是对该空的补充说明。
19.该空前面提到:有一些证据表明减小班容量可能会导致学生阅读成绩的提高。后一句提到:他们发现,来自小容量班学生的随机选择的测试分数只有53%的几率会高于来自大容量班级学生的所选分数。该空承上启下,应该表明小班教学实际上效果不是很好,故A选项切题。
20.上一句提到:来自小容量班学生的随机选择的测试分数只有53%的几率会高于来自大容量班级学生的所选分数。下一句提到:这导致研究者们得出结论:班级容量小对于学生的数学成绩没有好处。该空承接上文,还应该介绍班容量和数学成绩有关的内容,故B选项切题:对于数学成绩来说,这个几率只有49%。
