General Steyn was visiting the island and wanted to know if we had any complaints. Badenhorst was there as I went through a list of demands. When I had finished, Badenhorst spoke to me directly.He told me he would be leaving the island and added: I just want to wish you people good luck. I do not know if I looked dumbfounded (目瞪口呆的), but I was amazed. He spoke these words like a human being and showed a side of himself we had never seen before. I thanked him for his good wishes and wished him good luck too.I thought about this moment for a long time afterwards. Badenhorst had perhaps been the most coldblooded and cruelest commanding officer we had had on Robben Island. But that day in the office, he had showed that there was another side to his nature, a side that had been hidden but still existed.It was obvious that all men, even the most seemingly cold-blooded, have a heart of kindness and that, if their hearts are touched, they are able to change. Actually, Badenhorst was not evil; his inhumanity (不人道) had been encouraged by an inhuman system. He behaved cruelly because he was rewarded for cruel behavior.”21When did the story happen?A. Before Badenhorst left the prison.B. Before Mandela gave demands.C. After General Steyn took over the prison.D. Just when Mandela was set free.22How did Mandela feel at what Badenhorst said?A. Awkward. B. Surprised. C. Angry. D. Upset.23Why did Badenhorst become the cruelest according to Mandela?A. He was born evil.B. He seemed cold-blooded.C. He was easily changed.D. His cruelty was rewarded.24Which could be the best title of the passage?A. Hide oneself or express oneself?B. Hard to change or easy to change?C. Cruel by name or cruel by nature?D. To be a prisoner or to be a commander?B“Selfie” (自拍) joins ranks of dictionary words.In 2002, an Australian man went to his friends 21st birthday party. He got drunk, tripped on some steps and cut his lip. He took a picture of his injuries and shared it with his friends on an online forum. “And sorry about the focus,” he wrote, “it was a selfie.” That was the first recorded use of the word “selfie”, according to linguistic experts at Oxford Dictionaries.On Nov 19, Oxford Dictionaries declared “selfie” Word of the Year for 2020, in honor of the term having taken over the world thanks to millions of smart phone self-portraits and the resulting shares on social media.So what does the choice of the word say about our culture? Mary Elizabeth Williams, writing in Salon magazine, says the word reminds us that contemporary culture is defined by our narcissism(自恋).Megan Jackson from a local newspaper points out a selfie may only focus on appearance.Selfies invite judgment based on appearance alone. What kind of cultural influence does this have on women? Erin Gloria Ryan on Jezebel says selfies teach young woman to obsess over their appearance and judge themselves on the basis of beauty rather than accomplishments. “Theyre a reflection of the warped way we teach girls to see themselves as decorative,” said Ryan.In Slate magazine, Rachel Simmons has the opposite view. She argues that selfies are an example of young women promoting themselves and taking control of their own self-presentation. Think of each one, she says, as “a tiny pulse of girl pride a shout-out to the self”.25Which of the following is true about the first use of “selfie”?A. The Australian man created it to celebrate his friends 21st birthday.B. The Australian man created by chance when he got drunk and shared his photo online.C. The Oxford Dictionary used it to thank the creation of smart phone.D. The social media were so advanced that they made the word transmitted.26The underlined word “tripped” in the first paragraph probably means “_”.A. traveled B. stepped lightlyC. fell down D. made mistakes27Who holds a positive opinion towards selfie in the life of women?A. Mary Elizabeth. B. Megan Jackson.C. Erin Gloria Ryan. D. Rachel Simmons.28The text is mainly concerned with _.A. the introduction of the word “selfie”B. the choice of the word “selfie”C. the history of the word “selfie”D. the characteristics of the word “selfie”CSingles Day - the Chinese opposite of Valentines Day has turned into a massive online shopping event. It is a day when single people are supposed to buy themselves presents. But there are sociological reasons behind Chinas “celebration” of single life. And the imbalance could have big consequences for the country.There were 34 million more men than women in China in 2020. Part of that is natural usually there are 105 boys born for every 100 girls. But the Chinese gender ratio (性别比例) at birth is much more obvious. It was 116 boys to 100 girls in 2020. The one child policy is largely to blame. Brought in to limit population expansion, the policy allows only one child per family. But because male children are seen as more valuable, as well as more likely to support their parents in old age, some parents choose to have a son over a daughter. The result is that large numbers of men will likely never get married. In fact, one study has predicted that by 2030, 1 in 5 Chinese men in their 30s will never have married, while another states that 94% of unmarried people in China are men.Traditionally, China has seen high levels of marriage, usually among the young. Besides, the increased education and career opportunities for women have meant that marriages are happening later. It is also traditional that women often marry men of a higher socioeconomic status than themselves. So women at the top and men at the bottom find themselves alone. One study has even suggested a link between an imbalanced gender ratio and growth in violent crime in the country.Singles Day cant solve all the problems Chinas singles face. Indeed, it is possible that it is causing even more problems, as men resort to(诉诸于) increasingly risky lines of work to increase their chances of gaining money and thus a wife. I am worried that as money starts to overcome romance, there is evidence that Chinas marriage market is increasingly materialistic.29In 2020, if 50 girls were born, how many boys were probably born?A. 50. B. 52. C. 58. D. 60.30What made women in China get married late?A. Their support of the governments late marriage policy.B. Their higher education level and more work chances.C. That they expect to enjoy their single time when young.D. That there are too many excellent young men to choose from.31Whats the writers attitude to the imbalance gender ratio in China?A. Optimistic. B. Indifferent. C. Concerned. D. Unknown.32We can learn from the passage that .A. Singles Day is celebrated all over the world.B. an imbalanced gender ratio is related to the growth in violent crime.C. by 2030, 1 in 5 Chinese women in their 30s will be out of marriage.D. Singles Day will solve all the problems Chinas singles face.DWisconsin Historical Museum30 N.

Now, most of us dont face serious danger like hungry tigers every day, but we do face serious bosses or public speaking. So, what can we do? 39 .Lastly, fear lets you know you are alive.

There is 61 Africanproverb that says, “Until a son is old enough, he will not bother 62 (ask) what killed his father in order to take revenge.” The ceremony demonstrated that China has come of age and can no longer be ignored by the rest of the world.No 63 (few) than 17 countries sent a total of 1,000 troops to take part in the parade, joining 12,000Chinese troops in Tiananmen Square. China displayed a series of modern military hardware including tanks, fighter jets and ballistic missiles（弹道导弹）.On the day of the parade, Xi said the day would go down in history in remembrance of the 64 (remark) times in 65 the world stood against Japanese aggression. While thanking the world leaders who stood 66 China, he said that “the war was evil 67 justice won finally”.Xi said that during the war
