Indiana health officials confirm

36、ed the states first death from a vaping-related lung illness, bringing the national toll to three, after two such deaths in Illinois and in Oregon. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has announced that the number of people in the US sickened with a severe lung illness linked to vap

37、ing(电子水烟) has more than doubled to 450 possible cases in 33 states, including three deaths confirmed in connection with these illnesses and a possible fourth. Many of the patients are teens or young adults. All patients reported using e-cigarettes and many used the devices to vape marijuana.So far,

38、the cause of the illnesses is unknown: no single vaping device, product or substance has been tied to all of the cases, said Dr. Dana Meaney-Delman, the manager of the CDCs investigation. Officials believe “chemical exposure” is likely to be behind these illnesses, but much more information is neede

39、d.The CDC announcement coincided with the release of several new reports on vaping-related illnesses. One, published in The New England Journal Of Medicine, describes 53 patients from Wisconsin and Illinois who developed respiratory(呼吸道的) symptoms after vaping. Most of these patients were young, mal

40、e and healthy prior to their illness. Patients had symptoms such as shortness of breath, coughing and chest pain, vomiting, fever and weight loss. All of the patients had vaped within the previous three months, and 84 per cent reported vaping marijuana products. The report seems to suggest that vapi

41、ng-related lung illnesses are a new phenomenon, and not something that simply went undetected in the past. The rate of monthly emergency room visits for severe lung illness in young adults was twice as high in June to August 2019 as the same months in 2018, the study found. The CDC recommends that p

42、eople consider not using e-cigarettes while the investigation is ongoing, and e-cigarettes should not be used by children or adolescents, young adults, pregnant women or adults who currently dont use tobacco products.58. Why does the author consider the vaping-related lung illnesses mysterious?A. Ma

43、ny suspected cases and deaths have arisen all of a sudden.B. No specific device or chemical has been confirmed in connection.C. There is no cure for the disease and the victims may well bitterly die.D. Such cases and deaths are distributed in states distant from each other.59. What can we infer from

44、 the coincidence between CDC announcement and several new reports?A. Illinois is the state that has the largest number of victims in the US.B. The vaping-related lung disease is totally arbitrary and out of control.C. There may exist a close bond between the illness and vaping experience.D. Official

Young Adults Under ThreatCLooking back, if I could tell my younger self one thing, it would be to appreci

46、ate the summer holidays more. It doesnt matter how beautiful the weather is if the only time you get to experience it is on a 15-minute lunch break. When I worked full-time in an office, I would feel the pain of this as colleagues with kids jetted off for a summer break and I was left to work. I fel

47、t as though my life came second to theirs, but Ive come to realize this time was actually a gift. Let me explain. So much of our working week finds us rushing to meet deadlines and please bosses. We have a long list of things that have to be achieved and we can get so lost in all of these that we fo

48、rget to do the other things that can boost both our careers and productivity. The summertime, however, sees managers on holiday and an attitude of “nothing will get decided on until September”, which means this is the perfect time to focus on you. The main thing Ive learned over my years of working

49、is to use this period to recharge, even if youre not actually on holiday. I vividly remember complaining to a friend once of being bored during August. After shed rolled her eyes at this non-problem, she suggested that perhaps this time was slow because I was supposed to be focusing on something oth

50、er than work. I could leave on time and have life outside of the office. Making time to see my friends or finally seeing the exhibitions Id been putting off for months recharged me, and when the break ended, I was ready for it. So much of our working life is about relationships, yet we sacrifice the

51、se to raise productivity. It may be more beneficial to a work relationship to take a colleague for a coffee, but its quicker to fire off an email, so we do that. In the summer, suggesting a walk in the sunshine, while you talk about how to deal with that tricky client, suddenly seems like the best w

52、ay to work. The-hopefully-warm weather makes all of us unreserved, so use this to your advantage. Are there people youve really wanted to meet but theyve always been too busy? And finally, if you already know that, come September, youre going to start pushing for that pay rise or new job you promise

53、d yourself, then now is the time to ensure that youve got all the evidence to make your case. Offering to be the point of contact for projects when your boss is away can give you the experience you need to take the next step. Use the summer wisely and, by the end of it, youll be the employee with a

54、new plan of action and a contacts book filled with new best friends. 61. The reason why the author counts as summer break as a gift is that _.A. it provides a chance to escape from loads of heavy workB. much attention can be paid to oneself and self-refreshmentC. it is a perfect time to jet off and

55、spend holidays with kidsD. work can be postponed to September for absence of managers62. What does the underlined sword “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. The exhibition.B. The experience.C. The break. D. The work.63. Where would the sentence “Summer brings out everyones social side.” best fit?A. B. C.

56、 D. 64. According to the author, what is the benefit of being “the point of contact for projects”?A. Filling in the gap colleagues have left.B. Catching up on pleasures you have missed.C. Recharging yourself with much energy.D. Developing new friendships and action plans.DDetective fiction is someth

57、ing that gained popularity comparatively later than all other genres in literature. There might be some works that existed in historic time that could now be identified as detective fiction, but the works that were introduced solely as this genre began with the writings of Edgar Allan Poe and Wilkie

58、 Collins. Of course, today when we talk about detective fictions, the works of Arthur Conan Doyle and Agatha Christie come foremost. Their stories are those that have given an edge to this genre due to its popularity.Being a passionate reader of Doyle and Christie, I would like to draw a comparison

59、between the styles used by Doyle in Sherlock series and Christie in her mystery thrillers. Both of them use a specific pattern for their detective stories. Doyle mostly develops the story from a helpless clients visit to 221B Baker Street. All the accounts of the cases are narrated by Watson except

60、two pieces. Christies works in a way look completely different as the stories and settings are varied and quite unique. But we can always see that there is a basic formula in her works. A murder happens and all the characters in the plot, mostly people around the victim, have something to be suspect

61、ed of, some secrets that they hold back, all of which are set up to totally confuse the reader.Christies novels are all about “who is the murderer”, but while reading Sherlock a reader is more interested in knowing how Sherlock finds the criminal. It is the method Sherlock employs to deduce the fact

62、s and to connect the dots that readers await to know. This can be understood just by thinking how every Sherlock reader waits for that part where Sherlock explains the facts to Watson who shares the readers ignorance. When we reach the same crucial point in Christies works, what our eyes search for

63、is the namethe name of the murderer. All the explanations, logic and reasoning interest us only later. Christie has used various types of narrative techniques in different novels. There has been a set of novels where there is omniscient narration(叙述者全知), others with Hastings (Hercule Poirots assista

64、nt) as the narrator, and even some in first-person narrative. She introduced many detectives, Poirot being the most popular. On the other hand, Doyle had only Sherlock as detective in his novels and stories. But he had started a new series portraying a new character “Professor Challenger” which didn

65、t become as popular as Sherlock series.Both the writers worked on the principles of science, logic and psychology. When compared, Sherlock stories seem more realistic as they are not as dramatic as Christies novels. But the element of psychology is more explored by Christie. Often her detective beli

66、eves in sitting in a chair and thinking to solve the mystery, rather than running around collecting clues. It is because her detectives work by analyzing the hidden psychology rather than explicit actions. Sherlock is an active detective who works hard in finding clues, wouldnt mind devising a littl

67、e drama or an act of disguise(伪装) for it.Both of them have created logically credible stories, but somewhere or other Sherlock ones are close to life, because they portray not only murder but also seemingly simple human issues. Christies works are more engaging, but the act of making up the plotthe

68、purposeful concealing and revealingis somewhere visible. But it is undeniable that she never fails to entertain her readers. While reading Sherlock, we forget Doyle and our whole attention is on Sherlock, and sometimes we end up feeling he is a real individual rather than a fictional character. But

69、in Christies works somehow, we feel its she who is working, rather than Poirot, which is why she became the “queen of crime” and not her characters. Thus, in a way Agatha Christie outshines her characters and Sherlock Holmes outshines his creator. But both ways Doyle and Christie gifted their fans e

70、xcellent detective stories to involve themselves in and enjoy all their life.65. In terms of detective fictions, Doyle and Christie are foremost mentioned because _.A. they are considered as the founding fathers of detective fictionsB. they worked together and created many famous detective figuresC.

71、 it is Doyle and Christie that made detective fictions well receivedD. it is their works that made detective fictions superior to other genres66. Which of the following may be typical Christies works?A. Novels with a specific opening pattern with a focus on deducing facts.B. Thrillers with varied an

72、d unique settings to make plots more confusing.C. Fictions in which there is a fixed character responsible for unfolding the story.D. Detective stories in which victims and suspects are closely related to the detective.67. When reaching crucial points in Christies works, readers tend to give priorit

73、y to _.A. the details of the crime B. the motive behind the crimeC. the personality of the criminal D. the identity of the criminal68. A new character “Professor Challenger” brought about _.A. a disappointment for Conan Doyle B. another hit with detective fansC. an abrupt decline in Sherlocks appeal

74、 D. an inspiration for Agatha Christie69. How do Doyle and Christie make their stories reasonable?A. They refused to display mystery in the stories.B. They stuck to first-person narrative techniques.C. They applied knowledge of different fields.D. They included detailed accounts of explicit actions.

75、70. What kind of detective may Hercule Poirot be?A. One who is good at discovering secrets in human mind.B. One who is active in searching for and connecting clues.C. One who lays emphasis on both actions and psychology.D. One who sometimes plays tricks and even cheats suspects.第四部分 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1

They protect your health as much as quitting smoking and a great deal more than exercising.“Strong social relationships support mental health, and that ties into better immune functi

77、on, reduced stress and less cardiovascular activation,” says Dr. Debra Umberson, a sociologist at the University of Texas, Austin. Umberson says emotional support is just one of a dozen ways friends may safeguard your health and extend your life.However, unfortunately many of us dont have enough of

78、them. According to data from the General Social Survey, the number of Americans who say they have no close friends has roughly tripled(三倍) in recent decades. “Zero” is also the most common response when people are asked how many confidants（知己，密友） they have. And adult men seem to be especially bad at

79、 keeping and cultivating friendships.That may seem strange in the era of Facebook, Twitter and boundless digital connectivity. But the “friends” orbiting at the farthest reaches of your digital galaxy arent the ones that matter when it comes to your health and happiness.The vital friendships the fri

80、ends you hug and laugh and cry with are the ones who have the greatest impact on your health and happiness. You need between three and five of them for the best wellbeing, suggests research from Dr. Robin Dunbar, an evolutionary psychologist at the University of Oxford.Dunbar recognized that the siz

81、e of a humans social network might be limited by the size of a certain part of the human brain called the neocortex, a critical site for higher brain functions. After some complicated study, he came up with a figure now known as “Dunbars number”, the approximate size of a persons social circle. Dunb

82、ars research shows that your brain cant hold a close connection with more than 150. Within that group, your closest 15 relationships including family members or relatives seem to be most crucial when it comes to your mental and physical health.But thats not to say a brother or sister offers you the

83、same benefits as a close friend, Dunbar says. While your relatives are more likely to be there for you when you need help, your good friends tend to fire up your nervous system and cause the release of feel-good neuropeptides called endorphins. Whether youre laughing with your friend or feeling him

84、or her touch your shoulder in sympathy, the resulting rush of endorphins seems to “tune” up your immune system, protecting you from disease, Dunbar explains.So yes, for the sake of your health, you need friends ideally the really close kind you see face-to-face on a regular basis. ThemeFriends can p

American people without close friends have 73 by three times in recent decades. It is common

Adult men in 75 are inferior in keeping and cultivating friendships.Dr. RobinDunbars related research To ensure your wellbeing, you need between three and five friends who can 76 your joy and sorrow.
