She wrote to me last week asking how I was, saying she was fine and that she was 36 the dress we sent for her birthday. She even drew a picture of herself wearing the dress. Then she wrote, “Please 37 .”I cant 38 the last time someone asked me to write back. We dont write letters anymore. The 39 is gone; theres never anything good in the mail. We know whats in the mail advertisements and circulars (印刷信函).When I was the same age as the young lady writing to me, my father took a new job. We only moved 200 miles, but it felt like we had been 40 from friends, extended family and all things familiar by two continents and an ocean. Long distance phone calls were 41 and expensive then, most often 42 for emergencies or bad news.But people wrote. Both of my grandmothers, and two of my great-aunts wrote to me. It was special that someone took an interest in a 43 kid. That someone would take the time to put pen to 44 and share their lives and 45 about mine meant a lot. It would mean a lot to anybody, 46 .I spent many a Sunday evening straining (竭力) to 47 thoughtful and well-written letters. “Dear Aunt Mary, How are you? I am fine. I hope you are the same.”My mother was a great letter writer. I looked forward to her letters when I left home, went to college and then traveled across the country working newspaper jobs. When I married, had children and moved again, still far from home, she wrote 48 . Letters were a way of 49 the distance.She was a natural storyteller. She could make a story about a 50 gathering where everyone sat on metal folding chairs and had nothing but water to drink sound like a wonderful party. Back then, letter writers were storytellers because they were 51 of the world around them.As phone calls became affordable, then cheap, the flow of letters 52 and eventually stopped.But it is different for me today. What a 53 to get a letter! There were 54 circulars and advertisements in the mailbox. There was something truly special, which takes me to my most delightful task 55 , “Dear Audrey . . .”By Lori Borgman36. A. comparingB. takingC. enjoyingD. considering37.

It covers almost every aspect of millennials experiences on their path toward adolescence -their struggles with schoolwork, their relationship with peers, their confusion if a younger brother or sister is born into the family, and their growing desire to keep a distance from their parents. But this five-episode series was different from any other TV program with a similar theme. Post-00s was filmed over a period of 10 years, during which the shows makers followed a group of kids from when they were infants through to when they became teenagers. In other words, the shows“characters”grow older for real, and their stories are all real. “Coming-of-age”stories, as theyre known, have a special appeal. They satisfy our curiosity of looking at someone elses life, and we become more and more attached to the characters as if we truly know them. And while we enjoy the truthfulness of the stories because nothing is set in advance, we also cant help but feel the cruelty of reality. After all, theres no re-writing of the script and theres no turning back- this is real life. This realness can also be seen in Boyhood, a 2014 film that won the Silver Bear award for best director at the 64th Berlin International Film Festival. During a period of 12 years, the film follows the life of Mason Jr. - played by US actor Ellar Coltrane - from when he was 6 to when he finished high school. One of Boyhoods appeals comes from its “ordinariness”. Mason Jr isnt some child genius. He is a quietly spoken, fairly typical American boy, growing up in the Texas suburbs. He likes riding his bike and playing video games. While coming-of-age stories may look ordinary on the outside, they often allow us to look underneath the surface and see something extraordinary the power of life itself. 58. In the documentary, we see post-00s growing experience EXCEPT _.A. how they escape from their studiesB. how they get along with people of their ageC. how they help feel about their younger brothers or sistersD. how much they long to be independent of their parents59. Post-00 is different from other TV programs with a similar theme in that _.A. it focuses on millennials life experience on their path towards adolescenceB. the stories of its main characters are real C. It was filmed over a period of 10 years D. It has five episodes60. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. Life is one big storyB. Actors are ordinary charactersC. Documentary is real lifeD. Post-00s are coming!CThe largest-ever study of the link between city walkability and high blood pressure has been held up as evidence of the “invisible value of urban design” in improving long-term health outcomes, say researchers. The study of around 430,000 people aged between 38 and 73 and living in 22 UK cities found significant associations between the increased walkability of a neighborhood, lower blood pressure and reduced risk of high blood pressure among its residents. The outcomes remained consistent even after adjustments for socio-demographic (社会人口统计学), lifestyle and changing physical environment factors, though the protective effects were particularly pronounced among participants aged between 50 and 60, women, and those residing in higher density and poor neighborhoods.The paper was published in the International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health this week. With high blood pressure a major risk factor for chronic (慢性的) and particularly heart diseases, researchers at the University of Hong Kong and Oxford University said the findings demonstrated the need to take notice of the health-influencing factor in urban design. “With the increasing pace of urbanization and demographic shifts towards an ageing population, we become more likely to suffer from chronic diseases,” said Dr. Chinmoy Sarkar, an assistant professor at the Healthy High Density Cities Lab of the University of Hong Kong and lead author of the study. “The action taken to improve public health must consider the invisible value of urban planning and design. “We are spending billions of pounds in preventing and curing heart diseases if we are able to invest in creating healthy cities through small changes in the design of our neighborhoods to make them more activity-friendly and walkable, then probably, we will have significant savings in future healthcare expenses.”To measure a neighborhoods activity-promoting potential, researchers developed a set of index(指标) of walkability containing relevant urban elements, including residential and retail (零售) density, public transport, street-level movement, and distance to attractive destinations.Poorly designed spaces generally reduced walking and physical activity, promoting the lifestyles of long time sitting down and not moving; and were harmful to social interactions, and as such associated with poorer mental and physical health. Because walkability was “based on the underlying design of the city”, said Sarkar, cities could be modified or designed to encourage it. “Such investments in healthy design are likely to bring in long-term gains as they are enduring and common.”61. By considering “invisible value of urban design”, people can _.A. reduce the ageing population B. promote activity-friendly and walkable cities C. invest in preventing and curing heart diseasesD. slow down the pace of urbanization62. What can be inferred from the passage?A. A set of index is essential to ensure that urban design promotes walkability.B. Walkable cities will cure a person of his or her high blood pressure.C. Chronic diseases are becoming common due to peoples neglect of their health.D. Middle-aged women living in poor areas are more likely to benefit from increased walkability.63. All of the following are the undesirable consequences of poorly-designed neighborhoods EXCEPT _.A. fewer neighborhoodsB. unhealthy lifestyleC. fewer social interactions D. failing health64. According to Dr. Chinmoy Sarkar, _. A. cities should encourage the residents to engage in social interactionsB. the design of our neighborho
