It was Day 1 of our vacation on Cortes, a beautiful quiet island.
“
iPhone, iPhone, iPhone,
”
my son kept
moaning(
呻吟
). In front of him was a big window facing the blue ocean. And a cool gentle wind was coming in
from the door. Clearly, he saw and felt none of it.
Back at home, I
’
d soon give up and hand the phone over to him after five minutes of listening to this kind
of moaning.
But not here, before we left, I had
told my 10-year-old son the rule
—
no e-mails, no Facebook, no video
games, and no iPhone. We came here to get away from them all. Here we were on our first day and already, he
couldn

t stand it.
____ I walked down the grass road to the beach and looked out to the sea. My 6-year-old daughter and my
husband were drawing on pieces of wood. They were doing just fine.
On Day 2, we spent the whole morning digging for shells(
贝壳
). This time, my son joined us. He collected
shellfish and other sea treasures. When we got back to our little wood house, I gave my son a book, and put
him on the lovely garden chair. It was almost dinner when he looked up.
The next few days passed in peace.
On Day 6, my son was lying beside me on the beach, watching the sun going down. He was playing with
the sand. And there was something shining in his eyes. I realized how time slowed down for both of us. It was
exactly what I wanted. Finally, we were able to sit quietly without thinking about
screens, phone calls and e-

Benjamin West, the father of American painting, showed his talent for art when he was only six years
old.
But he did not know about brushes before a visitor told him he needed one. In those days, a brush was made
from camel
’
s hair. There were no camels nearby. Benjamin decided that cat hair would work instead. He cut
some fur from the family cat to make a brush.
The brush did not last long. Soon Benjamin needed more fur. Before long, the cat began to look ragged
（蓬乱）
. His father said that the cat must be sick. Benjamin was forced to tell what he had been doing.
The cat
’
s lot was about to improve. That year, one of Benjamin
’
s cousins, Mr. Pennington, came to visit.
He was surprised to see Benjamin
’
s drawings. When he went home, he sent Benjamin a box of paint and some
brushes. He also sent six engravings
（版画）
by an artist. These were the first pictures and first real paint and
brushes Benjamin had ever seen.
In 1747, when Benjamin was nine years old, Mr. Pennington returned for another visit. He was amazed at
what Benjamin had done with his gift. He asked Benjamin
’
s parents if he might take the boy to Philadelphia
for a visit.
In the city, Mr. Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings. The boy began a landscape
（风景）
painting. William Williams, a well-known painter, came to see him work. Williams was greatly surprised
at
Benjamin
’
s
talent
and
gave
him
two
classic
books
on
painting
to
take
home.
The
books
were
long
and
boring.
Benjamin
could
read
only
a
little,
having
been
a
poor
student.
But
he
later
said,
“
Those
two
books
were my friends by day, and under my pillow(
枕头
) at night.
”
While it is likely that he understood very little of
the books, they were his introduction to classical paintings. The nine- year-old boy decided then that he would
be an artist.
is the text mainly about?
A. Benjamin
’
s visit to Philadelphia.
B. Williams
’
support for Benjamin.
C. The beginning of Benjamin
’
s life as an artist.
D. The friendship between Benjamin and Pennington.
52. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 suggest?
A. The cat would be closely watched.
B. The cat would get some medical care.
C. Benjamin would leave his home shortly.
D. Benjamin would have real brushes soon.
53. Williams
’
two books helped Benjamin to ______.
A. master the use of paints
B. understand landscape paintings
C. get to know other painters
D. make up his mind to be a painter

D
In
2018,
Science
magazine
asked
some
young
scientists
what
schools
should
teach
students.
Most
said
students should spend less time remembering facts and have more space for creative activities. As the Internet
grows more powerful, students can get knowledge easily. Why should they be required to carry so much of it
around in their heads?
Civilizations(
文明
) develop through forgetting life skills that were once necessary. In the Agricultural(
农业的
)
Age,
a
farmer
could
afford
to
forget
hunting
skills.
When
societies
industrialized,
the
knowledge
of
farming
could be safe to forget. Nowadays, smart machines help us to get most human knowledge. It seems that we no
longer need to remember most things. Does it matter?
Researchers have realized several problems that may happen. For one, human beings have biases(
偏见
), and
smart machines are likely to increase our biases. Many people believe smart machines are necessarily correct
and
objective(
客观的
),
but
machines
are
trained
through
a
repeated
testing
and
scoring
process(
过程
).
In
the
process, human beings still decide on the correct answers.
Another problem relates to the ease of
getting information. When there were no computers, efforts were
required
to
get
knowledge
from
other
people,
or
go
to
the
library.
We
know
what
knowledge
lies
in
other
brains or books, and what lies in our heads. But today, the Internet gives us the information we need quickly.
This can lead to the mistaken belief
—
the knowledge we found was part of what we knew all along.
In a new civilization rich in machine intelligence(
智慧
), we can easily get to smart memory networks where
information is stored. But dependency on a network suggests possibilities of being harmed easily. The collapse
of any of the networks of relations our health depends upon, such as food and energy, would produce terrible
results. Without food we get hungry; without energy we feel cold. And it is through widespread loss of memory
that civilizations are at risk of falling into a dark age.
We forget old ways to free up time and space for new skills. As long as the older forms of knowledge are
stored
somewhere
in
our
networks,
and
can
be
found
when
we
need
them,
perhaps
they
’
re
not
really
forgotten. Still, as time goes on, we slowly but unquestionably become strangers to future people.
54. Smart machines are likely to increase our biases because ____________.
A. they go off course in testing and scoring.
B. we control the training process on them.
C. we offer them too much information.
D. they overuse the provided answers.
55. The ease of getting information from the Internet __________.
A. frees us from making efforts to learn new skills
B. prevents civilizations from being lost at a high speed
C. misleads us into thinking we already knew the knowledge
D. separates the facts we have from those in the smart machines
56. The underlined word
“
collapse
”
in Paragraph 5 probably means
“
____________
”
.
A. a sudden failure
B. the basic rule
C. an unhappy start
D. the slow development
57. The writer
’
s main purpose in writing this passage is to _______________.
A. question about the standards of information storage.
B. discuss our problems of communication with machines.
C. stress the importance of improving our remembering ability.
D. remind us of the risk of depending on machines to remember.

．．
Though times have changed, falling asleep in class is still very common among teenagers.
Why
do
students
sometimes
fall
asleep
in
class?
An
important
reason
is
that
they
don
’
t
have
enough
sleep. However, there are also causes for getting too little sleep.
Homework is a daily job for most students, one that can take three to four hours per night. A teenager who
wants
to
be
able
to
take
part
in
any
activity
besides
homework
must
stay
up
late
to
fit
everything
in.
Club
activities, sports, computer-game playing, and TV viewing, for example, all make teens have less time for both
homework and sleep. Sometimes teens don
’
t have enough sleep because of after-school jobs that are taken
on to make extra money for college, family costs, or just for clothes.
Physical problems are another reason that make students fall asleep in class. For example, insomnia, which
may keep a student up at night, making students tired during class hours, is a serious problem that may require
medical care.
Falling asleep in class can cause quite serious results. First of all, sleeping in class is not welcomed in school.
What
’
s more, it is highly possible that other students may make jokes about those who sleep in class. However,
