Dear Rita,

   How are you? Last time you asked me about the greatest invention in my eyes. I have also discussed it with my best friends, Anna, Sue and Kris. We have different ideas. Anna thinks it is the high﹣speed railway; Sue, the shared bike; Kris, the online shopping; and I prefer the Internet.

   The Internet is just like a net, and it connects us with the world. In the past, it was nearly impossible for people to communicate immediately with people in other countries. They had to spend a long time to reach their destinations (目的地), and not everyone could do that. But the Internet has made the impossible possible. Now we can communicate with foreigners online.

   The Internet also helps us know what is happening around the world, and has made our life and work easier. In recent years, shopping online is very popular. We can just stay at home and buy what we need online. We can also do online office work and distance education. Besides, we can watch movies, listen to music and even play games to relax ourselves on the Internet.

   So, I think that the Internet is one of the greatest inventions. It has changed our world! Although there are still many problems with the Internet, they will be solved in the near future. As a student we should make good use of the Internet!

                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Yours,

                                                                                                                                             Martin

It seems that food deliverymen (送货员) are always rushing in haste.We can always see them running every minute,and they seem to have lots of things to do the next minute.They wear blue,red or yellow helmets (头盔) and many of them don't follow traffic rules.They drive on the wrong side of the road and run red lights.They use mobile phones when they are driving.

To solve the problem,food delivery service companies need to do some changes.Some cities are also taking action.Shanghai has asked companies to train their deliverymen on traffic rules and safety.Now in Shenzhen,if a deliveryman breaks traffic rules more than twice,then he can't do the job for a whole year.

If you feel sad or upset,remember not to watch a happy movie.A sad movie may be more suitable for you.

Some scientists at Ohio State University,the U.S.,have found that sad movies can make people happier.They published their study in a magazine called Communication Research.

    Scientists asked 361 college students to watch a sad movie called Atonement.The movie tells a story of two lovers who were separated.They died during World War II at the end of the movie.The 361 college students answered questions from the scientists before,after and three times during the movie to find out their different feelings,including sadness.

    According to the result of the survey,scientists found out that people felt better after watching the sad movie.Scientists believed this was because the movie made them think about their own lives and relationships.Compared to those of the unlucky lovers in the movie,their lives were full of hope.

    "I want to live my life to the fullest,and this movie has made me think a lot," one student wrote.

    Silvia Knobloch﹣Westerwick,the leader of the study,explained that bad moods (情绪) would make people more thoughtful. "Good moods are generally a sign that everything is fine.You don't have to worry,and you don't have to think about problems in your life," she said. "But bad emotions,like sadness,make you feel terrible about your situation.Therefore,seeing a sad movie may make you feel bad,but that will cause you to think more about your own close relationships and value them more."

(1)The scientists asked the college students to watch Atonement   .

A.to help them make more friends

B.to make them feel better about themselves

C.to find out how they felt after watching it

With so much free time on our hands during lockdown, many of us have entertained the idea of knowing more about the world. Learning a foreign language is a good choice. Here are a few examples, in order of time it takes people to learn them.

    Latin languages (about 600 hours)

   The popular Latin languages ﹣ Italian, French, Spanish and Portuguese ﹣ require about 600 hours to learn. Of these, Spanish and Italian are the easiest for English speakers to learn. They are followed by Portuguese and finally French.

    Latin languages share many words with English.However,those shared words look or sound similar, but have different meanings over time.

    Greek (1,100 hours)

    Modern Greek is maybe the easiest language to learn that uses a different alphabet(字母表).It is also a language that has contributed many words to English. Indeed, the president of Greece once gave two speeches at an international meeting that included just Greek loan words(外来词) as well as the unavoidable basic English.

    Japanese (2, 200 hours)

    Counting objects in Japanese depends on whether they are long and thin (like "roads"), small and round (like "apples"), thin and flat (like "sheets of paper"), and hundreds more examples.

    What Japanese you speak also depends on your gender(性别). There's a "rough" language for men and a more "ladylike" language for women, but you must understand both.

    Chinese (2, 200 hours)

    Each Chinese written word is hardly understandable when spoken between a Mandarin (普通话) speaker in Beijing and a Cantonese speaker in Guangdong. If you think that's strange, consider our number system: the symbol "2" is widely understood but it's pronounced "two" in English and "duex" in French.

(1)For an English speaker, which of the following is the easiest to learn?  

A. Japanese.

B. French.

C. Greek.

D. Italian.

(2)What can we learn from the passage?  

A. The same word in two languages always has the same meaning.

B. The English language and the Greek language use the same alphabet.

C. Objects are counted differently in Japanese according to their shapes.

D. A Mandarin speaker and a Cantonese speaker write Chinese differently.

(3)The purpose of this passage is to tell English speakers  

A. how to learn some foreign languages

B. why they must learn a foreign language

C. some information on the difficulty of foreign languages

D. not to choose an Asian language to learn as it is too hard
