You can see it in the portraits from the 1960s by Felicia, regarded as the first woman in Ghana to work as a professional photographer.‎ Roman Opalka: Telling Time In 1965, this Polish artist began his “Details”, one of the most emotional projects of postwar art by painting the number ‎1 in the comer of a blank canvas. He took a breath, painted a 2, took another, painted 3 — and died, 46 years later, after painting the number 5 ,607 ,249.‎ Small preparatory exercises for the number paintings, never before seen, appear inside a room of antique musical instruments, beautifully presented by the inventive director Chiara Bertoia. The pair have never been seen together, and when viewed face-to-face, you feel you have stepped into the space of a life.‎ Jannis Kounellis After his early paintings copying the letters of Roman street advertising, Mr. Kounellis began to put natural materials in relief with cultural or historical relics. After several years of deep-thinking group exhibitions, the Fondazione hosts a show of this ‎ Greek-born Italian artist, who died two years ago and whose poetic combination of coal, stones, soil and used clothes made him a key figure.‎ ‎21. What did Kwame do for Ghana Freedom?‎ A. He covered a wall with African soil.‎ B. He combined natural materials into art.‎ C. He wrote an article about its contents.‎ D. He included some artists in the pavilion.‎ ‎22. What can we learn about " Details" ?‎ A. Opalka got inspiration from Chiara when creating it.‎ B. The artist added his war experience into the artwork.‎ C. Six influential artists joined in the important project.‎ D. It's an emotional project about art after World War II.‎ ‎23. What's the characteristic of the artwork of Jannis?‎ A. It puts natural materials with cultural relics.‎ B. It copies the way Roman letters are formed.‎ C. It's all set in a bright room full of musicians.‎ D. It gives one the feeling of stepping into space.‎ B UK physicist Isaac Newton once said, "Nature is pleased with simplicity and nature is no dummy (傻子)." Indeed, Mother Nature can provide almost everything human beings need if we follow her rules. But if we break the rules, she is likely to be cruel and lash out at us.‎ The outbreak of the novel coronavirus pneumonia (新型冠状病毒肺炎, NCP) in China and some other countries at the beginning of this year is an example. According to Xinhua News Agency, the new coronavirus is similar to a virus found in a bat in 2017 and probably has an intermediate host (中间宿主). It’s believed that the virus originated from the Huanan Seafood Market in Wuhan, Hubei province, where live wild animals were sold.‎ The Wall Street Journal reported that Dr Peter Daszak, president of the US-based health organization EcoHealth Alliance, said, "This outbreak is a lesson for us. On a ‎ global scale (规模), human population density (密度), wildlife diversity, and land use change are what drive new pandemics (流行病)."‎ In ancient times, people needed to rely on nature to survive so they held it in awe (敬畏). For example, the American Indians believed that humans are a part of nature and nature is a part of humans. Chinese ancients always pursued the harmony between nature and human beings.‎ However, as human beings master more knowledge and make more advanced tools, people try to change and even conquer nature. They use more land to make buildings, genetically modify (改变) plants, capture some wild and rare animals to suit their own needs. In this process, humans gradually lose contact with nature and even throw it out of balance. For example, cutting a large number of forests means carbon dioxide must build up in the atmosphere and it contributes to global warming.‎ Although we don’t know for sure what first caused the NCP outbreak, Brian Lamacraft at Medium said it’s time for people to "reflect on our relationship with our planet" and "reconnect with this world and everything that we’ve been given". After all, according to US poet Gary Snyder, "Nature is not the place to visit. It’s our home."‎ ‎24.What does the phrase “lash out at” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?‎ A. Punish B. control C. test D. challenge ‎25.What lesson did Daszak think human beings should learn from the NCP outbreak?‎ A. Bats are one of the most dangerous wild animals.‎ B. It’s impossible to prevent new pandemics globally.‎ C. We should stop the wildlife trade around the world.‎ D. Humans should live peacefully with nature.‎ ‎26.What is the main idea of Paragraph 5?‎ A. How human beings become their own masters.‎ B. How human activities cause global warming.‎ C. How human beings break the balance of nature.‎ D. How humans use technology to improve their lives.‎ ‎27.What is the author’s purpose in writing this article?‎ A. To reflect on the NCP outbreak.‎ B. To explain what led to the NCP outbreak.‎ C. To describe experts’ predictions on new pandemics.‎ D. To compare ancient and modern attitudes toward nature.‎ C Jennifer Udler was in the middle of a 50-minute session with a patient when it started to rain. Walking and talking about anxiety and stress, she and her teenage patient got wet. But when they made it back indoors, Jennifer said, “ Hey, look at us! We're wet, but we got through it! Now you can use that next time you have anxiety before and during an event. ” This kind of insight is key to her practice.‎ Jennifer, a social worker whose practice focuses on adolescents, has been a therapist （治疗师）for 20 years. For most of that time, she practiced in a traditional office, but she noticed how easy it was for her running partners to open up about their problems. After doing some research, in 2013 , Jennifer founded Positive Strides Therapy, where she conducts sessions while walking outdoors. She conducts all of her sessions outdoors and in all kinds of weather.‎ ‎"When somebody asks me if I specialize in walking therapy, I say, ' No, that's how I practice, ' ” Udler said. "I specialize in family systems theory. Walking in the park is just where I practice. ”‎ Despite the lack of formal research, Jennifer believes strongly in the benefits, saying that it can be helpful. "We'll be talking about ' moving forward ' as we are actually moving forward on the path, building muscle memory of how they can move forward and leave the anxiety behind. ”‎ And outdoor walking therapy doesn't just benefit teens. Jennifer said the adults in her practice welcome the humanizing effect of taking therapy outdoors.‎ ‎28. What lesson did Jennifer teach her teenage patient through the rain?‎ A. Rain and suffering are a part of life.‎ B. She is ready to help the young man.‎ C. We can beat our difficulty after all.‎ D. Rain can help us deal with our trouble.‎ ‎29. Why does Jennifer think her therapy will help her patients?‎ A. The rain can make one excited and face the trouble.‎ B. Walking outdoors is similar to managing worries.‎ C. Moving in the rain is a bit too difficult to tolerate.‎ D. Running in the rain or storm will make one healthy.‎ ‎30. How does Jennifer feel about her therapy in her reply to people's question?‎ A. Confident. B. Doubtful. C. Unconcerned. D. Disappointed.‎ ‎31. What does the underlined word "it” in Para. 4 refer to?‎ A. Treating her teen patients in a traditional office.‎ B. Building physical memory of past experience.‎ C. The lack of formal research about the therapy.‎ D. Conducting walk — and — talk therapy for teens.‎ D Over Half of Young Chinese Block Parents on WeChat Moments We all know the feeling—you want to check what someone you care about has been up to on social media, and suddenly you find you are denied access to their feeds. It's an instant start of mixed emotions and speculations - when did this happen? Did I do anything wrong? What are they attempting to hide from me?‎ And that's what half of Chinese parents have to deal with when they try to browse their children's WeChat Moments, also known as "Friends' Circle", as suggested by a recent survey released by Tencent, the Chinese Internet giant. According to the report, entitled Annual White Paper on Family Affection on WeChat Moments, about 52 percent of WeChat users aged 18 to 29 block their parents on Moments, a major feature on the platform that allows users to share everything they like with their WeChat contacts. ‎ About 62 percent of the young interviewees said that parents "are neurotic about everything," along with reasons such as fear of parents' disapproval, rejection to parents' nagging(唠叨), and seeking privacy. "My parents don't know Moments very well, so I just told them I don't use it anymore," said Qin Jianping, a 28-year-old. He added that his parents had been leaving comments requesting updates on his dating status on every ‎ post he made on Moments since he broke up with his girlfriend two years ago. Xie Yun, a 26-year-old, said that while she didn't block her parents entirely, they were in a specific group to which she only shares positive posts. "I don't want my parents to see minor setbacks in my life," she said, adding that once her parents saw a Moments picture of her hand getting slightly burned while cooking, and they traveled all the way to her city to make sure she was all right. ‎ The report also found that more than 49 percent of Chinese parents use WeChat as a main channel to communicate with their children. Roughly 36 percent of the parents who took the survey said they checked every post made by their children. When asked how they would react to being blocked, some parents said they would initiate a conversation with their children to find out the reason, while others said they wouldn't care. And some parents just outsmart their kids in this hide-and-seek game online. "I didn't realize I was blocked until I compared what I could see on my phone to what my son's aunt could see," said Chen, a mother of a 27-year-old son. "I chose to remain silent on this and now I'm following my son's posts through his aunt. "‎ ‎32.

Here consumers can buy almost everything they need.‎ Shopping on the Internet has a lot of advantages, of which the most important is perhaps its convenience. People don't have to waste a lot of their energy and precious time to go from one shop to another to choose the commodities they like. This is especially desirable to the old, the sick and the busy people who cannot go to the shops in person（亲自）. The goods come in all shapes, sizes and colors on the Internet. All they need to do is to sit in front of their computers and click ‎ the mouses（点击鼠标）. The commodities they order will be delivered（运送）to them promptly.             ‎ However, shopping on the Internet also has its disadvantages. The first disadvantage is that the consumers can't see the goods or try them on（试穿，试验） personally. Sometimes, the real goods may not be the same as what they have seen on the computer. The second disadvantage is that some shops on the Internet are not registered（注册）. They will never deliver anything to you after they get the money from you. Once cheated, you will find that you have nowhere to go to complain.‎
