Deciding to get her money’s worth out of the wedding dress on which she spent over $ 1,000, an Australian woman has been wearing her wedding dress, a year after her wedding.
43-year-old Tammy Hall adopted a new lifestyle-anti-consumerism(反消费主义) lifestyle in 2016, after a trip to India opened her eyes to how much we as a society consumed. She decided not to buy any new clothes or footwear for a whole year after she returned home to Adelaide, in Southern Australia, and she managed to make it.
But last year, as her wedding day approached, she faced a dilemma. She wanted to look good on the most important day of her life, but how could she spend a small fortune on the wedding dress she would only wear on that day?
“In the end I decided that if I was going to get a wedding dress, I’d make sure I could get my money’s worth,” Hall tells PA Real Life.
“The first time I wore it after the wedding was to vote in the Australian election in early 2019,” the 43-year-old adds. “Since then, it’s been to all sorts of places. Wearing it on a crowded train was especially funny, but I’ve worn it to do housework, to football games and to the gym.”
Hall says that she has gotten some strange looks from people, but no irritating comments. It may have something to do with the fact that the dress is not the fanciest, but she believes people are just too reserved to say anything. Anyway, she doesn’t really care, because she knows she has to hit the goal she has set and wearing the dress multiple times is the most reasonable way she could think of to make the most of her wedding dress.
Hall now plans to wear her wedding dress on a trip to Iceland that she and her partner will take next summer.
24. Why did Tammy Hall adopt a new lifestyle?
A. To adapt herself to Indian life.
B. To get prepared for her wedding.
C. To save money for her next trip.
D. To cut down her consumption.
25. What did Tammy Hall do to get her money’s worth out of her wedding dress?
A. She brought fun to people with it.
B. She wore it repeatedly in daily life.
C. She tried to wear it to earn money.
D. She got it exchanged again and again.

26. Which of the following best explains the word “irritating” underlined in paragraph ?
A. Thrilling. B. Amusing.
C. Annoying. D. Confusing.
27. What can we infer about Tammy Hall?
A. She is determined to turn her ideas into practice.
B. She values her wedding dress less than her trips.
C. She has been struggling to make the ends meet.
D. She has influenced people’s lifestyle widely.

Battling freezing temperatures, total darkness, and other dangerous flying conditions, a plane left the South Pole on Wednesday after rescuing a sick worker from a U.S. research base. After the patient and flight crew rest , the plane will make its way to South America , where the patient will receive medical care .
The daring rescue mission(任务）began last week when two planes flew from Canada to Rothera, a British base on the Antarctic Peninsula. On Tuesday, just one of the planes left Rothera on a 10-hour trip to the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, where the sick worker was located.
The station is usually unreachable during Antarctica's long winter, from February to October. Forty-eight people live at the base, including a doctor and a physician's assistant. But when the crew there determined the worker needed medical help that couldn't be provided on site, the emergency rescue mission began.
A small crew, including a pilot, co-pilot, medical worker, and flight engineer, made the 1, 500-mile trip from Rothera in a Twin Otter plane. It is the only type of plane capable of flying in Antarctica's winter cold. It can operate in temperatures as low as-103F. The temperature in the South Pole on Tuesday was -73F . In such conditions, an aircraft's fuel and even its batteries need to be warmed up before it can take off.
The pitch-black sky and the threat of high winds and sudden weather changes make such flights extremely risky and rare. This rescue is only the third time an emergency mission has been made to the research base since 1999. The National Science Foundation, which runs the station, has not said who was rescued, or the medical condition of the person. The names of the crew members who made the daring flight have not been made public either . But according to Peter West, a National Science Foundation spokesman, the mission “went all according to plan”.
28. Why did the plane fly to the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station?
A. To do scientific research. B. To transport medicine
C. To rescue a sick worker. D. To supply necessities.
29. What do we know about the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station?
A. It is a British research base .
B . It is a US research base.
C . It is a ten-hour flight from Canada .
D. It is a medical centre on the Antarctic Peninsula.
30.From the third paragraph we can infer .
A. the doctor there is not experienced B. the base is lack of medicine
C . the patient asked to be taken back D. the patient was seriously ill
31. What could be the best title for the passage?
A. A daring rescue B. An interesting flight
C. Flying to Antarctic D. Patient receives medical care
D
This is what's known as a 'Buddy' or Friendship Bench'. They're needed because playgrounds can be lonely places sometimes. And these benches can help pupils feeling lonely to find a friend. Benches like this have been around for a while now in some schools. But in Ireland, they are trying to do something a bit different with them.
This school in Cork in the south of Ireland is the 47th to get one from a social enterprise called Buddy Bench Ireland that doesn't just provide schools with benches, it also runs special workshops with trained child psychiatrists（精神病专家）. They use the bench as an opportunity to start conversations about mental well-being. They talk about the importance of being aware of your feelings and those of others. The children need to understand what the bench is about, what it symbolizes--- friendship, listening to each other and the most important thing is to express feelings.
But do children actually use the bench? It's something an independent academic study has been looking at. We found that 40% of the children told us that they had actually used the benches at the time of the study. And over 90% said that they would talk to a child if that child was sitting on the bench. So, certainly there doesn't appear to be any issues around whether they are properly used. Children's mental health at school is increasingly a concern in many countries. Buddy Bench Ireland is hoping these benches will not only handle issues like social isolation and bullying but also give a future generation the confidence to open up about their feelings. Therefore, they are attempting to make the bench gain high popularity in Ireland schools in a larger scale.
32. Why the school in Cork in the south of Ireland uses the bench?
A. To help children with psychological problems fully recover.
B. To replace the old benches in school.
C. To cut the cost of school's facility.
D. To start conversations about mental well-being.
33. What makes the bench work in Ireland schools?
A. Teachers and parents encourage children to try it.
B. All the children understand what the bench is about.
C. Most children are willing to express feelings.
D. The bench helps children get rid of loneliness.
34. What will Buddy Bench Ireland expect of the bench?
A. It will deal with social isolation and bullying completely.
B. It will motivate a future generation to bravely convey their feelings.
C. It will make children prefer the bench to old one.
D. It will appeal to more students to sit on it.
35. In your opinion, what content will be covered in the following paragraph ?
A. The reasons for the popularity of the bench.
B. The importance of being aware of students’ mental well-being.
C. The concrete approaches to promoting the use of the bench in more schools.
D. The ways to make the bench function effectively.

Dear Jack，
Glad to hear that you’re concerned about my taking the National College Entrance Examination this year. I’m writing to tell you something about it.
The National college Entrance Examination is the biggest examination in China, which takes place on June 7-8 every year. Chinese ,maths and English are the three compulsory subjects. We can choose three other subjects according to our own will.
Undoubtedly, the National College Entrance Examination means a great deal to Chinese students. It determines whether one can attend a college or not and what job one can obtain in the future.
As for me, my dream university is Zhejiang University. And I plan to choose English as my major since I have been dreaming of spreading Chinese culture to the rest of the world.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
