A potential suitor may have a good sense of humor and reasonable good looks, but what they say really matters is if he owns an apartment and how many square feet it is. A sizable bank account is also a must, and, some say, so is a luxury car。At least, thats the way things look if you watch Chinese television these days. The latest reality-TV scandal to shock the nation involves Ma Nuo, a 22-year-old model from Beijing who appeared on Chinas most popular dating show,If You Are the One.She rejected an offer from a male contestant to take a ride on his bike. Id rather cry in a BMW (宝马) car than laugh on the backseat of a bicycle, Ma told her suitor with a giggle.The televised words swept the Internet and made an instantcelebrityof Ma, who becomes one of the most talked-about women in the country. Thereaction among young Chinese was especially severe, reflecting growing anxieties over the widening gap between rich and poor, shifting societal values and public attention on the difficulties of finding a mate in a country where men are expected to outnumber women by 24 million in a decade.As disgusted as they have been by some of the contestants, viewers continue to watch religiously. Why are people still tuning in? Audiences like programs because they are honest. They show the current reality of Chinese society, says Yan Mu, one of the founders of B. Young people are so focused on making money and building their careers these days, they have little time to devote to dating, he says. Many people feel pressure from their parents and peers, Yan adds. It can be a struggle to find a partner. Money may not buy you love. But on Chinas reality shows, it can at least get you a date.56.The underlined words“numbers”in the first paragraph include the following except_A. the age and degree B. the size of the house C. the sum of the deposit D. the price of the belonging57.What does Ma Nuo mean by saying“Id rather cry in a BMW car than laugh on the backseat of a bicycle.”in the second paragraph?A.

She prefers true love to money58.Why do many young men take part in TV dating shows?A. because they think they may get true love from themB. because they think Chinas reality shows can at least give them a chance to dateC. because their parents and peers force them to do soD. because viewers like dating shows59.Which one of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. some contestants have been disgusted because they are dishonestB. young people are too busy to take part in dating showsC. some people are worried that societal value are changingD.

Popular TV Dating ShowBYour House Will Take Care of You In Old AgeHave you ever thought what your life would be like in old age? Everyone talks about the “aging” society with large numbers of elderly people needing home care. Now German researchers have set up a “smart” house, programmed to help the elderly live at home with dignity. Scientists at Germanys Fraunhofer Institute say the house combines existing technology with future-oriented technology.For example, the “smart” bathroom has a touch screen mirror that can remind people to take their medicine, wash their hands or brush their teeth. The hardware behind Fraunhofers electronic bathroom is not new, and the software runs on a regular personal computer.When the medicine cabinet is opened, a display in the middle of the mirror tells the person how many pills to take. The mirror is linked to a care provider, who can remotely check whether a patient at home is actually taking medicine and brushing his or her teeth. As many elderly people have arthritic(关节炎的) conditions that make it difficult to operate water taps, the mirror also has displays that turn the water tap on or off or control the water temperature.The bathroom is only the start. Kitchens, bedrooms and all other parts of the “intelligent” home will become “user-friendly” to meet all kinds of individual needs. Sensors in doors, toilets, taps, light switches and carpets detect every activity and record them electronically. Doctors or care staff can see from the computer records what personal hygiene tasks have been completed, how often the elderly person visits the bathroom or uses the toilet. In case of an emergency, the computer automatically alerts the chosen contact person or calls the care center.61. The smart” bathroom has a touch screen mirror _.A. that can help the elderly brush their teeth B. which is linked to a nursing houseC. behind which is a medicine cabinet D. that can remind people to do many things62. The underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refers to _.A. every activity B. doors, toilets, taps, light switches and carpets C. individual needs D. sensors63. The house mentioned in the passage can be described as _.A. smart but expensive B. intelligent and convenientC. smart and environmentally-friendly D. fashionable and energy-saving64. How is the passage mainly developed?A. By inferring B. By listing examples. C. By comparing. D. By introducing a practical method.65. The author of the text mainly _.A. calls on people to care for the old B. encourages the old to live with dignityC. introduces a new house D. promotes a new houseCHeavy downpours last month in Rhode Island led to widespread flooding, causing millions of dollars in property damage and leaving thousands homeless. The floodwaters also poured vast amounts of raw sewage (污水) into the rivers and streams that flow into Narragansett Bay.It sounds like the makings of an environmental nightmare, but in fact its just the opposite. To scientists delight, the sewage-loaded floodwaters have caused a well-timed growth of phytoplankton, the microscopic creatures that form the foundation of marine food chains. With more food available for fish, clams and other sea creatures, the bays fisheries industry is expected to benefit.In decades past, Narragansett Bay typically experienced a late winter/early spring algal (海藻) bloom that fed creatures up and down the water column. But in recent years, the waters of Narragansett Bay have warmed greatly, interrupting this seasonal event.Mark Berman, an oceanographer with the National Marine Fisheries Service, said the flood seemed to have sent the bay back to its normal state.However, local, state and federal officials in Rhode Island have been battling other algal blooms that, by contrast, are causing widespread harm to the Narragansett Bay ecosystem. During summer months, sewage and agricultural runoff flows into the bay, causing large blooms. But instead of becoming food for sea creatures, much of the phytoplankton is consumed by bacteria, which grow fast in the warmer waters. The rapid bacteria growth leads to hypoxia a decrease of oxygen in the water that can cause large fish kills. One such die-off occurred in 2020, when millions of oxygen-starved fish washed up on the beaches of Narragansett Bay.The floods positive impact will probably be a one-time event, Mr. Berman said. Meanwhile, efforts to curb the harmful summer blooms continue; in 2020, for instance, Providence completed a $359 million sewage tunnel under the city designed to reduce the polluted storm overflow into Narragansett Bay.66. Scientists believe that the raw sewage flowing into the bay will _.A. pollute the islands environment B. cause lots of property damageC. increase the fisheries production D. destroy the food chains in the bay67. The potential benefit of fisheries industry relies on the _.A. warm temperatures of the bay B. growth of phytoplanktonC. large summer alga blooms D. consumption of oxygen by bacteria68. People struggle against the summer blooms because they will _.A. pollute the local natural environment B. increase the production of fishery industryC. cause large fish kills of the bay indirectly D. provide too much food for sea creatures69. It can be inferred that _.A. money spent on the summer blooms has been wastedB. the government is investing to promote the local fisheriesC. research of oceanology should be encouragedD. opinions on the raw sewage impact are currently contradictory70. The underlined word “curb” in the last paragraph can be defined as “_”.A. control B. consume C. cause D. cureDIn a new article, Zehr, a professor at the University of Victoria, Victoria, British Columbia, describes his success in using the Caped Crusader (披篷骑士) to engage students in the study of physiology.Batman (蝙蝠侠) has such
