A good place to start is online articles. ③____________ Once you’re comfortable with reading short pieces of text, move on to short novels or magazines. It’s recommended that you pick books with awards, because that's probably a safe bet.‎ ‎    Read step by step and consistently.‎ ‎    Longer pieces of text and thick novels may seem intimidating(令人胆怯的), but an important thing to remember is that you don't have to read the whole thing in one day.‎ ‎    ④____________ Read a little every day. It doesn’t matter if it’s 10 minutes or 30, so long as you actually sit down and read.

By Toshimitsu Takagi in 2005, in which the player is locked inside a room and must explore his or her surroundings in order to escape.  ①__________Other inspirations include adventure board games and movies.

Examples include the two pioneer companies Hint Hunt and Adventure Rooms.‎ ‎    The games were so successful that the new locations began opening up across China, in cities big and small, according to Want China Times. In the southern city of Shenzhen, for example, the first escape game location opened last August.④__________“These real-life escape games can help those who stay at home on their computers and iPad all day to experience real social circles,” Tian Xiaohuan, who owns two room escape game stores in Jinan, told Want China Times. Earlier this year, The South China Morning Post said the real-life escape games are a hit among “highly stressed students and overworked young professionals.” ⑤__________Some players get so involved that they tear down equipment or decorations inside their “prisons”, as Zhu Yumeng, chief operating officer of Beijing room escape game store Taoquan told China Daily.‎ A.

But today’s situation is quite different. ①__________Instead they most commonly say they want to be a sports star, a pop star, or an actor—in other words, they hope to become a celebrity (名人).‎ ‎    According to experts, young people desire these jobs largely because of the wealth and the fame. ②__________Let’s take athletes and singers as an example. Their careers are short-lived. Many athletes’ best time only lasts a few years and singers can have a very limited career. The field that was once the focus of their lives becomes something they have little or no involvement in. As a result, they’ll have a feeling of worthlessness and a lack of control. ③__________The truth is quite simple: they have been so far removed from it for so long.‎ ‎    In spite of these disadvantages, there is greater ambition than ever among young people to achieve that status. They are not satisfied just making a living—they want to be rich and famous. Globally, more and more TV shows provide talent competitions where winners can achieve their goals in just a few weeks or months. ④__________They unrealistically believe that this lifestyle is easily obtained and leads to great satisfaction.‎ ‎    While many people argue that there is nothing wrong with having such ambitions, others feel that this trend will finally lead to dissatisfaction as more and more people are unable to reach their goals. ⑤__________That means they ignore the simple fact that great effort is needed before success. As a result, many people won’t ‎ realize their childhood dreams, which could have a negative effect on their happiness.‎ A. The younger generation don’t favor these professions any more.‎ B. In many ways this has been brought about by the celebrity culture.‎ C. Unfortunately, they do not always have a positive effect on people’s life.‎ D. Besides, it can be difficult for them to adapt back to a normal everyday life.‎ E. People no longer have a sense of satisfaction once their goals have been achieved.‎ F. This quick way of gaining wealth and fame creates a celebrity culture among people.‎ G. The reason is that they don’t realize it takes talent and hard work to be rich and famous.‎ ‎5、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。‎ ‎ In China, many people are leaving the countryside to find jobs in the cities, because the countryside is much poorer than the city, and often there isn’t much work there. Services such as hospital and transport are usually much better in the city than in the countryside. ①__________‎ ‎    But in the big cities of Europe like London or Paris, people are moving out of the city. These rich families want to live a quieter life. They are tired of the noise and the dirt of the city, and they are tired of the crowded streets, crowded trains and buses. ②__________They want a house with a garden in the countryside, and breathe the fresh air there.‎ ‎    So they move out of the cities. Some don’t go very far, just a little way out of the city, to the towns near the cities,other people move to the real countryside with sheep, cows and green fields.‎ ‎    ③__________‎ ‎    Not all those who move from the city to the countryside are happy. After two or three years, many people who have done this feel that it was a big mistake. They don’t make so much money and there isn’t much work to do. ④__________‎ ‎    As a result, quite a lot of people who have moved to the countryside move back to the city.

Honolulu is the first major U.S. city to ban what is called “distracted walking”. It recently passed a law in a seven to two vote. The law says, “No pedestrian shall cross a street or highway while viewing a mobile electronic device.”③__________‎ ‎    The law includes all electronic devices with screens: cellphone, tablets, gaming devices, digital cameras and laptop computers.④__________Pedestrians may use such devices in the street to call emergency services and rescue workers, such as firefighters and police officers.‎ ‎    Pedestrian deaths have been increasing as the use of cellphones rises. The Governors Highway Safety Association, or GHSA, says pedestrian deaths in the United States increased 25 percent in 2010 and 2015. That trend continued in 2016 with the number of pedestrian deaths rising to almost 6000, 11% higher than that in 2015.‎ ‎    ⑤__________The state of Washington was the first to outlaw distracted driving back in 2007. Now, 46 other states as well as D. C., Puerto Rico, Guam and the U. S. Virgin Islands, have laws against texting while driving.‎ ‎    If you still want to text while walking, you could avoid being fined in Honolulu by using a voice-controlled digital assistant such as Siri or Google Assistant. Or you could just wait until you are again, safely, off the street.‎ A. However, the law does permit an exception.‎ B. Other U. S. cities may follow Honolulu.‎ C. But do they also teach them to put away their cellphones?‎ D. Texting while crossing the street will soon be banned in the city.‎ E. Do you like Honolulu’s new law that bans texting while walking?‎ F. In other words, do not look at a screen when you cross the street or you could be fined.‎ G. The law has lowered the number of people hit and killed by cars in the city.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ 答案以及解析 ‎1、答案及解析：‎ 答案：EBCGA 解析：1．E．考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力．根据题目"你对自己的外表满意吗？"．第二段第一句"似乎大眼睛等是目前美容标准之一"．及空前第一句"Almost all the girls with single﹣fold eyelids （单眼皮）in our class have had double eyelid operations Zeng had the same surgery done this summer" 我们班上几乎所有的单眼皮女孩都做过双眼皮手术．曾荫权今年夏天也做了同样的手术．可知，E项做过手术的曾荫和她的许多同学相信大眼睛漂亮，符合题意，故选E．‎ ‎2．B．考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力．本小题是一段的中心．根据下文"over six in 10girls choose not to take part in certain daily activities， such as attending school， because they feel bad about their ‎ looks．"可知，超过60%的女孩选择不参加某些日常活动，比如上学，因为她们对自己的外表感到不满意．由此可知，B项外貌焦虑在女生中很常见符合题意．故选B．‎ ‎3．C．考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力．根据第四段的"Boys don't usually talk about body image problems as much as girls，but that doesn't mean they don't have them．"可知，男孩虽不会像女孩那样谈论外貌形象问题，但这并不意味着他们没有．也就是说男孩也有身体焦虑．分析选项可知C项（男孩也与身体焦虑作斗争）符合题意．故选C．‎ ‎4．G．考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力．根据空前的"专家说，许多青少年对自己的外表感到不安，因为他们相信不现实的美貌标准．在广告、电视节目和社交媒体中，到处都是完美的脸蛋和身材"因此在青少年看到到处都是完美的脸蛋和身材，就会觉得自己有许多缺点，如自己太胖，太矮了．分析选项可知G项 完美的面孔和身材在广告电视节目和社交媒体上随处可见，符合题意，故选G．‎ ‎5．A．考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力．本空是一段的主旨．根据空后的内容"Plus﹣size（大号的）models are being featured in some fashion shows． All of us should be just as confident as they are．"可知，很高大的模特在一些时装秀中很有特色．我们都应该像他们一样自信．由此分析选项A项 美来处于不同的体形和高矮胖瘦，符合题意，故选A．‎ ‎ ‎ ‎2、答案及解析：‎ 答案：1.
