And we may get fog (雾) sometimes but that’s all. Oxford is much smaller than your hometown Los Angeles. We only have about 135000 people. I looked up the population in 1900—it was about 57,000. So now there are about twice as many people, not ten times as many, like Los Angeles! Oxford is much smaller than London—London has about 9,000,000 people. So that means that Los Angeles has more people than London. Los Angeles is the largest city in America after New York. It gets hotter than Oxford. We have colder winters too—it can be -4℃ in winter. I’m not surprised that your new student only knew about University of Oxford. It is famous because it is one of the oldest universities in the country. The university dates from the 12th century. Now there are about 9,400 resident students (住校生), of whom a third are women. The city of Oxford is popular with tourists because of the university’s many beautiful old buildings. There are more tourists in Oxford than students, I should think. We get a lot of tourists all year round. We also get a lot of young foreign students because there are a lot of language schools here. You can stand in the middle of Oxford, close your eyes, and hear accents (口音) from all over the world! 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 6. How old is University of Oxford? A. About 8 centuries. B. About 12 centuries. C. About 500 years. D. No more than 1,000 years. 7. How many girl students are there living in University of Oxford? A. About 9,400. B. About 18,800. C. About 3,100. D. About 57,000. 8. What do we know about Los Angeles according to the text? A. The population of Los Angeles has increased ten times. B. Los Angeles is the largest city in America. C. Los Angeles has a smaller population than that in London. D. The winter in Los Angeles is as cold as Oxford. 9. Eric might ask Ben many things in his letter EXCEPT _________. A. whether there was smog in Oxford B. how to travel to Oxford C. what the differences were between London and Los Angeles D. if Ben could tell him something about University of Oxford 10. What’s the main idea of this letter? A. An introduction about Oxford and University of Oxford. B. The details about Oxford and Los Angeles. C. Why is University of Oxford famous around the world? D. Oxford is a better city than Los Angeles. C Modern cities seem to just get bigger and bigger. People have to drive a long way to work, exercise or have fun. The COVID-19 pandemic (疫情) has made many people think again what our cities should be like. Recently, a group of architects (建筑师) from South Korea have planned a“10-minute city with many areas, including living areas, study rooms, offices and areas to have fun. With only a 10-minute walk, people can reach all these places. The idea of such a city is not new. In 2016, French-Colombian researcher Carlos Moreno came up with the “15-minute city” idea. Moreno noticed that people spent too much time getting around. He said his 15-minute city would change our relationship with time and offer “convenient life within short distances”. The COVID-19 pandemic has seen growing interest in the idea because many people were forced to spend most of their time at home, with less chance to go outside of their communities. But within their communities, they can’t always get what they need. “If our way of life is no longer making sense, perhaps it’s time to consider something else, French professor Roxana Bobulescu said. “10-minute cities may be one choice”. But not everyone agrees with the idea. Some people worry that such cities will further gather wealth (财富) in the most convenient areas, as a result, house prices will be higher and higher. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 11. What do the “10-minute city” and the “15-minute city” have in common? A. They are both designed by French architects. B. People living there have to spend much time getting around. C. People in the cities live near the places they want to go to. D. People in the cities are not allowed to use cars. 12. Which is NOT a reason for building the “10-minute city”? A. People hate to see cities getting bigger. B. People spend too much time on a trip. C. The COVID-19 pandemic broke out. D. People can’t always get what they need near home. 13. What does the underlined word “convenient” mean in Chinese? A. 纠结的 B. 方便的 C. 环保的 D. 奢侈的 14. What is Roxana Bobulescu’s attitude (态度) to the “10-minute city”? A. Supportive. B. Worried. C. Unsure. D. Uncaring. 15. What may be discussed next after the last paragraph? A. How the “10-minute city” helps deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. B. How to live in a 10-minute city. C. What kind of people will not agree on the “10-minute city”. D The disadvantages of the “10-minute city”. D There are so many single-use products, such as paper cups, plastic bags and old newspapers which we throw away after using only once. ____16____ According to a news website, we are now living in a “throw-away society”. “Single-use” has become a natural way of life and can be seen almost everywhere. Every day, we see new stories and events on the social media (媒体). For example, for a short period of time, you may see a particular trendy terms (时髦术语) everywhere on the Internet. However, these trendy terms soon go out of style. With so many of them coming out all the time, the life of each becomes short—they become “single-use online products”. ____17____ You may feel worried when trying to keep up with these trendy terms, but you just cannot help but keep scrolling (滚屏). While you look through single-use products online, you also produce them. Since 2017, WeChat has allowed users to make only the last three days of their posts viewable (看得见的). ____18____ Since it doesn’t need too much time and energy to communicate anymore, we now even have disposable (用后即扔的) friendships, according to a story. ____19____ But without any deep thought behind it, the pleasure may not last for long.

Maybe we need to slow down and enjoy a more thoughtful way of life. ____20____ ※Tell yourself to accept the idea that good things in life take time to happen. ※Stay with people who agree with this idea. ※Try to hold as many real-life conversations as possible. 根据材料内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使文章意思通顺，内容完整。 A. This also means social media users are always searching for the next big thing. B. But the idea of “single-use” is about more than just plastic and paper. C. A single-use way of life may give you quick pleasure. D. If you want a more thoughtful lifestyle, here are some things that you can do. E.
