C When love and the Roaring Twenties meet,you get The Great Gatsby.When books and TikTok,a social media app,come together,you get BookTok,the suitable side of the social media platform where readers recommend,review,and theorize about their favorite books and authors. This Internet gathering has become a leading force in the book world,changing non-readers into people who can't stop,giving literary fans their next excitement, and selling copies in the process.Part of what makes Book Tok unique is that readers'taste and enthusiasm determine what wins popularity on the app,not necessarily marketing money from publishers or authors,creating a kind of closeness among users,like they're getting recommendations from friends. "I never had close friends who read the same kind of books as me,Jessi,23, said."And I wasted time on short videos,until the time I hit BookTok by accident, when I realized I could turn that wasted time into reading."After following other book accounts for a long time,she started creating her own videos on her account to share her own experiences with books,emotions,and all."I just really wanted to share my own feelings,"Jessi says. This form of influence has proven to have real effects.BookTok,aside from having more than 108 billion views on TikTok,has helped enhance book sales across the charts.Data by NPD BookScan revealed 825 million books were sold in the U.S.in 2021,up 9 percent from the previous year,which was the highest number it had seen since 2004."I feel confident in saying this is the biggest social media impact we've seen concentrated on a single platform since I've been tracking books,a director at NPD BookScan wrote in a post. But it's not just for readers.Tessa Bailey,the author of It Happened One Summer,was surprised to discover one day her novel was selling better than usual. "I had been doing this for ten years.Why is this one selling so well?"Bailey said. "People are talking about it on BookTok.So I got in there.BookTok is from readers and for readers.And over the last year or so,I've communicated with readers.” 28.What makes BookTok special? A.There is a wide selection of books. B.Creative advertisements are placed. C.Popular book lists are updated quickly. D.Readers'interest determines the hits. 29.What change did Jessi have after using BookTok? A.She learned to deal with loneliness. B.She desired to write book reviews. C.She made a lot of money from short videos. D.She started reviewing others'book accounts. 英语试题（长郡版）第5页（共10页） 30.What does the underlined word "enhance"in paragraph 4 mean? A.Improve. B.Balance. C.Decrease. D.Recover. 31.What does the example of Tessa Bailey show about BookTok's role? A.It boosts people's desire to express themselves. B.It increases readers'sense of belonging. C.It helps authors connect with readers. D.It provides inspiration for authors. 0 In the classic movie The Mighty Ducks,a group of ice hockey players band together,get better,and eventually win.That's the dream of players on losing teams.But for many kids'sports teams,it doesn't.There is no winning,no victory cheers. Most people don't like losing,with the discouraging record of the scoreboard, watching while the other team's players throw victorious hands in the air.Parents adjust complex family schedules for seemingly countless practices,then wonder what it's all for when their child's team never comes home a winner.So is losing all the time really good for children?It can be.Experts agree that losing at sports,no matter how unending,can allow children to learn from failure.Losing all the time builds philosophy,friendship,sportsmanship,and the idea of athletics as a series of increasing victories.The team may struggle,but teammates improve moment by moment. Milt Shapiro,who lives in Washington,coaches a team that lost "by football scores".He doesn't worry if a player cries,even though tears upset parents."I love the fact that he's crying,which means he cares and he's passionate.We will change that into something we can use on the field.I would focus on small victories within each game,”he says. Sports psychologist Caroline Silby,who practices in the Washington area,says in an email that the real problem with losing all the time lies with the parents. Trying to make children win all the time can be harmful.Also,losing is not such a big deal that it should be covered up.If parents don't speak about games-or seasons-that ended badly,children may think that means that failure is so awful that they shouldn't even talk about it. Also,Silby says,if parents get angry,blame unskilled players,or talk endlessly about a loss,they ruin the whole point of being on a team:a sense of belonging. Athletes who have that feeling-that they are connected to something larger than themselves-are less stressed and have higher self-esteem.And overall,she says, losing seasons can give athletes some perspective and help them grow better at managing frustration and doubt. 32.What's the experts'opinion about children's losing at sports? A.It exercises parents'patience. B.It's beneficial to kids'growth. C.It makes a team less competitive. D.It leads to children's short-lived emotion. 英语试题（长郡版）第6页（共10页） 33.How does Milt Shapiro react to his team's loss? A.He changes their training plans. B.He gets angry with his students C.He comforts players with small gifts D.He treats it as a learning opportunity. 34.What does Caroline Silby advise parents to do? A.Hide kids'losing properly. B.Put more effort into kids'training. C.Encourage kids to face failure directly. D.Draw kids'attention to things beyond games. 35.What would be the best title for the text? A.How Do Kids React to Losing at Sports? B.How Does Losing at Sports Impact Children? C.How Can Losing at Sports Be Good for Kids? D.How Should Coaches Respond to Children's Losing? 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两 项为多余选项。 Cell phone skins are fun and decorative ways to add style to cell phones,while also offering a small amount of protection.They are not the same as cell phone cases(手机套)，which are usually more focused on function and less on style.The skin is attached directly to the surface of the cell phone.36 The typical phone skin is made from vinyl(乙烯基).37 So it is possible to buy skins that are solid-colored or make use of a number of different color combinations. 38 It means you can buy several different ones and change the look of your phone to match the occasion.For example,they can be used to decorate the phone for holidays,seasons of the year,special events such as birthdays,and any other occasion that can be imagined. Cell phone skins are relatively inexpensive.So it is easy to buy several different models and change the look of the phone,just like many people matching shoes or jewelry to their clothing.39_For example,they can fit flip phones(翻盖手机) and phones with sliding keyboards. Today many companies that sell phone skins carry a wide range of colors and types.40 Some producers can create ones featuring company signs.Some producers can take original designs developed by customers and use them to create unique skins.While more expensive than ordinary skins,the specially-made types are still usually affordable. A.But it's also possible to order a special design. B.Decorative cell phone skins are removable C.Cell phone skins can protect your phone from dirt. D.The material can use a wide range of colors in the design. E.So you may choose cell phones that best suit your needs. F.It gives a more unique look than most cases can manage.
