• 2．In Shakespeare's HAMLET，Polonius asks the prince，"What are you reading，my Lord？" Hamlet replies， "Words，words，words." Either，as is likely，Hamlet wasn't interested in what he was reading，or，less likely，he didn't understand the words he was reading.In this case，Polonius should have lent Hamlet a good dictionary.
     Dictionaries are essential tools for people who like to read.There are so many words in English that even the most educated person will sometimes meet an unfamiliar word and have to look it up.Languages keep changing，too，with new words constantly being added and new meanings being applied to old words.For example，the 12th edition of Xinhua Dictionary，the most popular dictionary in China，has added new words such as "chu xin" "fen si" "er wei ma" etc.As for new meanings， "girl" once meant "a small child of either sex".And "naughty" didn't mean you were "enjoying playing tricks"；it meant you were poor.
     A printed dictionary can't keep pace with all the changes，which is why most dictionaries have websites and apps to help you keep up-to-date.However，I still prefer printed dictionaries because they give you more definitions and more examples of how a word is used.Even a simple word，such as "set"，has 430 meanings（the most of English words） but an online dictionary would only offer two or three.A printed dictionary also gives you the opportunity to discover new words as you run your finger down the page looking for the word you want.
     There is no "official" English dictionary，but the Oxford English Dictionary is considered to be the best.For English language learners，however，I would recommend the Collins COBUILD Dictionary for Advanced Learners.Hamlet，by the way，was Danish and a college student.He would have appreciated the Collins Dictionary to help himself with his words，words，words.This dictionary has over 40，000 words and gives you full-sentence definitions with good examples of how words are used.
  
  （1）What's the function of paragraph 1？

  
  A．To introduce the topic.
  B．To let the readers know more about HAMLET.
  C．To arouse readers' interest in Shakespeare.
  D．To explain when it's necessary to use a dictionary.
  （2）Why does the author mention "girl" in paragraph 2？

  
  A．To show how powerful Xinhua Dictionary is.
  B．To support the idea：languages keep changing.
  C．To prove new words are being added to dictionaries.
  D．To imply "girl" also means "boy" in some cases.
  （3）What's the author's attitude to printed dictionaries？

  
  A．Favorable.
  B．Ambiguous.
  C．Negative.
  D．Critical.
  （4）What's the author's purpose of writing the last paragraph？

  
  A．To introduce the history of dictionaries.
  B．To call on learners to use dictionaries.
  C．To recommend Collins Dictionary.
  D．To explain why Hamlet likes Collins.

• 3．There's been a frightening increase in the number of people feeling lonely，brought on or made worse by COVID-19.In fact there's been an epidemic（流行?。?loneliness.
    Loneliness is awful and dangerous.For one thing it weakens self-control and that，University of Bristol
  researchers have found，makes quitting smoking very difficult.Moreover，data from hundreds of thousands of people led Dr.Robyn Wootton，senior research associate at Bristol University and colleagues to conclude that loneliness appears to increase the need to smoke.
     According to the Office for National Statistics，the equivalent of 7.4 million people said their wellbeing was affected through feeling lonely in the first month of lockdown.Lonely people were also more likely to be struggling to find things that would help them cope and were also less likely to feel they had support networks to fall back on.
     Dr Robyn Wootton said， "We found evidence to suggest that loneliness leads to increased smoking，with people more likely to start smoking，to smoke more cigarettes and to be less likely to quit." Senior author Dr.Jorien Treur from Amsterdam UMC added， "Our finding that smoking may also lead to more loneliness is tentative（不確定的），but it is in line with other recent studies that identified smoking as a risk factor for poor mental health.A potential explanation for this relationship is that nicotine from cigarette smoke has a great impact on neurotransmitters（神經(jīng)傳導(dǎo)物質(zhì)） such as dopamine（多巴胺） in the brain."
     Dr.Wootton said with millions of people now being more socially separated，incidences of loneliness will climb. "We were really interested to find that loneliness decreases the likelihood of stopping smoking and we think this is a really important consideration for those trying to stop smoking during Covid-19，" she said.To ease your loneliness and improve your chances of succeeding in quitting.I think one of the best things you can do is to find a "buddy" who'll try to give up smoking with you.Together you can compare notes，share progress，talk through difficulties，and encourage each other to keep on going when all you want is to give in.
  
  （1）What can we infer from Paragraph 3？

  
  A．Lonely people tend to seek something to deal with loneliness.
  B．Lockdown do more damage to physical than mental health.
  C．People suffering from loneliness often turn to others for help.
  D．Self-control is the most important thing to overcome loneliness.
  （2）What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 4 refer to？

  
  A．Evidence.
  B．Smoking.
  C．Loneliness.
  D．Finding.
  （3）What can we learn from the last paragraph？

  
  A．Millions of people failed the attempt to stop smoking.
  B．A good way to stop smoking is to get a like-minded person.
  C．Smoking is not advocated officially during COVID-19.
  D．Those who want to quit smoking need to find good habits.
  （4）Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text？

  
  A．Health Problems Caused by COVID-19.
  B．Opinions on How to Give Up Smoking.
  C．Some Ways in Which Loneliness Harm You.
  D．Loneliness Makes it Hard to Quit Smoking.

• 4．We my be wishing some memories could last a lifetime，but a large quantity of physical and emotional factors can have negative impact on our ability to keep the information throughout our whole life.A new study which had been published in the journal Psychological Science found that people who feel enthusiastic and cheerful—what psychologists call "positive effect"—are less likely to experience memory decline as they get older.This result adds to a growing body of research on the role of positive elect on healthy aging.
     A team of researchers analyzed data from about 991 middle aged and elderly U.S.adults who participated in a national study conducted in three periods：between 1995 and 1996，2004 and 2006，and 2013 and 2014.In each assessment，participants reported on a wide range of positive emotions they had experienced during the past 30 days.In the final two assessments，participants also completed tests of memory performance.These tests consisted of recalling words immediately after their presentation and again 15 minutes later.
     The researchers examined the association between positive effect and memory decline，which accounts for age，gender，education，depression，and negative effect.
     "Our findings have clearly showed that memory declined with people becoming older，" said Claudia Haase，an associate professor at Northwestern University and senior author on the paper. "However，individuals with higher levels of positive effect had a less steep memory decline over the course of almost a decade，" added Emily Hittner，a PhD graduate of Northwester University and the paper's lead author.Areas of future research might address the pathways that could connect positive effect and memory，such as physical health or social relationships.

  B．Enthusiasm can make people healthier.
