He really did look like a tourist, with a camera around his neck and a bottle of sunscreen cream sticking out of his bag. The fat man sat on the terrace （平台），sipping lemonade and pretending to look at a tourism brochure. His sunglasses masked his eyes, but I knew he wasn't looking at the brochure: he hadn't turned a page for the last ten minutes. As I brought him his dishes, he coughed up a "thank you" and looked at me briefly. I tried not to stare at the tiny scar across his left eyebrow. I walked back inside with my empty tray, shaking my head. He looked familiar, but I couldn't quite place him. Then it hit me. The car accident. The mysterious stranger who helped me out of my crashed car, just before it exploded. I rushed back to his table. He was gone. I moved his saucer and found his tip, along with a card：I am deeply grateful to you. The night o£ your car accident, I was on my way to rob a jewelry store. Saving your life brought things back in a right way. I now live an honest life, thanks to you. God bless you! Mr. D. I shivered（震颤）.The night of my car accident, I was heading for an interview in an illegal dance club. Seeing human kindness through his heroic gesture turned my life around and brought faith back into my life. I unfolded the tip he left. Among the singles was a grand （—千块）with a pen mark underlining “In God We Trust.”I said a silent prayer for him and got back to work, smiling. 【1】Why did the fat man look like a tourist? A.Because he used money not the same as the locals. B.Because he carried what tourists usually have on. C.Because he doesn't look like a native citizen. D.Because he ordered strange food and drinks. 【2】How did the writer knew the man didn't read the brochure? A.He was drinking all the time. B.He sat still with his sunglasses. C.The page remained unturned. D.He was staring at the writer. 【3】What can we infer from the last paragraph? A.They kept in touch with each other since then.

Instagram（图片分享社交应用程序）is about to take its biggest step toward removing likes from its platform. After months of testing an option to hide likes in select international markets, Instagram, which is owned by Facebook（FB）, has already been testing hiding likes in seven other countries, including Canada, Ireland and Australia. For years, likes have been central to how celebrities, brands, politicians and everyday users experience Instagram and Facebook. It's a way of measuring popularity and success. But in recent months, Instagram has been rethinking how likes contribute to making its platform more toxic. Now it's considering a change. The total number of likes on posts — which appear as hearts on the app ——will disappear from Instagram's main feed, profile pages and permalink（永久链接）pages. The owner of the account can still see their own likes, but their followers won't know the count. CNN Business previously spoke with users in countries with the test. The majority felt this move would improve well-being on the app. Instagram is the most detrimental（不利的，有害的）social networking app for young people's mental health, such as negatively impacting body image, according to one study. But other users and psychologists said hiding likes won't fix everything. The test doesn't address some of the key ways that activity on Instagram can impact the well-being of users, including bullying, feeling left out and thinking other people's lives are better than their own. Renee Engeln, a psychology professor at Northwestern University, voiced his opinion that the biggest impact of Instagram is the content and the exposure to this constant stream of perfected images is what seems to hurt psychologically. Plus, users can still see their own likes ——and feel badly if their posts don't perform well. 【1】How do users experience Instagram in this passage? A.By giving likes. B.By hiding likes. C.By selecting platforms. D.By showing off talents. 【2】The underlined word “toxic” in Paragraph 1 most probably means “ ”. A.profitable B.poisonous C.popular D.positive 【3】What can we infer from the passage? A.Instagram has affected youngsters' mental health. B.The account owners won't know the count o£ likes. C.Instagram tested hiding likes in seven countries first. D.The majority think Instagram has been a well-being app. 【4】What could be the best title of the passage? A.Instagram Misuses Likes B.More People Are Against Likes C.Likes Cause Mental Problems D.Likes will Be Hidden on Instagram |

Living with your parents has its benefits at least when it comes to raising your kids― their grandkids. Two new studies add to the evidence that grandmothers can enhance the survival of grandchildren. That is, unless grandma's too old or lives too far away. Humans are unusual in that the females live long past the age at which they stop having babies. Patrick Bergeron, professor of biology at Bishop's University in Quebec, said that most of the organisms will reproduce up to their very last moment. This increase is often explained by the so-called "grandmother effect". He thinks there could still be a benefit for women who stop having babies to increase their genetic footprint by helping their daughters to raise larger families. To explore the "grandmother effect" hypothesis （假设），Bergeron and his colleagues examined nearly 200 years' worth of French-Canadian population records from the 17th and 18th centuries. "At the time, life was tough. In some years, a third o£ the kids were not even making it to one year of age.” But the researchers found that having a grandmother still alive was a definite plus."Families with grandmothers alive were larger by about two and the survival of these grandchildren to age 15 was much improved." This beneficial effect was only seen when the matriarchs （女家长）lived nearby. That role is tougher for them to fulfills as they get older in poor health, which brings us to the second study. The researchers found that the benefits associated with having a grandmother on hand depended on her age. Once manna hit 75, the grandchild survival benefit disappeared. This was almost certainly due to some form of indirect resource competition, though, rather than wickedness （邪恶）on the part of co- resident grandmothers. So a healthy grandma helps make for a healthy grandchild. If ',over the river and through the woods to grandmother's house" isn't too long a trip. 【1】What's the second paragraph mainly about? A.Differences between animals and human beings. B.Disadvantages of living with grandmas C.Grandmothers' influence on the kids. D.What's called“grandmother effect”. 【2】How does the writer describe about the French-Canadian population more than three hundred years ago? A.By voicing opinions. B.By providing facts. C.By giving examples. D.By telling stories. 【3】What can we infer from the second study? A.Society should be concerned about the old women. B.Grandmothers over 75 years old are unwilling to help. C.Some grandmothers may occupy kids' relative recourses. D.Some grandmothers are getting wicked after they are old. 【4】Which of the following can be the most helpful grandmother according to the passage? A.A healthy one living nearby. , B.A healthy one living abroad. C.An old one living in a nursing home. D.A knowledgeable one living together. |

It's as simple as a text, a note or a Face Time call. Let someone know you're thinking of them, even after some time apart. Studies suggest strong bonds can improve physical health, too. Genuinely compliment（赞扬）someone A respectful comment that comes from the heart about someone's unique hair style, excellent performance in a conceit or their great solution to a problem at work might be all it takes to improve someone's mood.【3】 Collect trash you see around your neighborhood Picking up trash and recyclables off the street beautifies your community and benefits the environment.【4】The environment can't clean itself, after all! Thank the people in your life They are the security guard outside of your workplace, the supermarket worker you see every day, your mom. 【5】Thank people for the things, big and small, that they do that improve your life. Gratitude is priceless. A.Others' positive words could help some people be a bit kinder to themselves, too. B.If your friends are overweight, that too ups the odds you'll pack on pounds.
