第一节 (共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
There are tons of beloved neighborhood restaurants in Pittsburgh. Here are four of them that you should at least try once.
Chinatown Inn
Chinatown Inn is the last remaining business of Pittsburgh’s original Chinatown. The family restaurant has been operated for more than three generations by the Yee family, nearly 80 years. From Chinese egg noodles to hot pot-every dish here is delicious, fresh and reasonably priced.
Pizza Talarico
Pizza Talarico is a family-owned and operated Italian restaurant near Arsenal Park. It offers Southern Italian-inspired pizza, sandwiches and more. Diners are welcomed as part of a family as soon as they enter the restaurant. The family-friendly atmosphere cannot be matched.
Groceria Merante
Speaking of a family business, Groceria Merante in Oakland has been family-owner and operated for more than 40 years. It focuses on sharing Italian heritage and tradition with the neighborhood. It is home to the best Italian sandwich in the area.
Eighteen
Pinsker’s Judaica Center is a shop that provides a large number of products related to the Jewish (犹太人的) culture such as jewelry (首饰), children’s toys and more. The cafe Eighteen, is located inside the shop and offers a relaxed atmosphere. It serves classic Jewish dishes. The food is simply excellent.
1. What do Chinatown Inn and Groceria Merante have in common?
A. They are family operated. B. They are in danger of closing.
C. They serve the same type of food. D. They have a history of more than 80 years.
2. Which restaurant best suits people who enjoy a family-friendly atmosphere?

Although the piano keys come in black and white, the music it produces is full of color. Chinese pianist Tian Jiaxin explores creative performances and crossover cooperations with traditional Chinese music, with the hope of bringing the music of the East to the Western world.
Tian attended regular school instead of studying at a music school in her childhood. This enabled her to absorb China’s rich culture and understand the bigger picture later in her pursuit of a career as a professional pianist. “There’s so much to grasp when explaining a piece. What we’re conveying is not only the notes, but the culture behind the music,” Tian said.
As a Chinese pianist, Tian is looking to add more depth to her performances, stressing the contrast between Eastern and Western cultures. “No matter which country I am performing in, I always include Chinese music in my program. With Western pieces, I hope to show the world that a female musician from China can perform the music that they are familiar with and love.” Tian says that she believes her mission is to make China heard on a wider stage.
Tian believes that music is developing over time and that music from different ages has its own unique meaning. “I’ve found that people’s understanding of Chinese music is often limited to certain pieces like Jasmine Flower,” Tian said. “However, there are so many great pieces of Chinese music that are unacquainted outside of China. So, I always try to feature both the time-honored classics of Chinese music and the newly created pieces,” she added.
“Chinese music has the magic to cause resonance (共鸣) with the audience and convey the various and deep culture of Chinese civilization,” Tian said.
4. What can we learn about Tian Jiaxin in the first three paragraphs?
A. She prepared well before performing. B. She adapted unknown Chinese pieces.
C. She went to music school at a young age. D. She aimed at making China heard widely.
5. Which of the following best explains “unacquainted” underlined in paragraph 4?
A. Unpopular. B. Unknown. C. Unacceptable. D. Unlimited.
6. What can be the most suitable title for the text?
A. A Pianist Taking a New Step into Western Music B. A Pianist Promoting Chinese Traditional Cultures
C. A Pianist Combining Chinese Music with Western Keys D. A Pianist Creating New Pieces of Chinese Music
C
A new study confirms what many have expected and offers a bit of hope: stress, or pressure, can lead to gray hair, and taking stress away appears to reverse (逆转) the process.
Study co-author Martin Picard was amazed at the number of people sharing stories of their white hair growing out in color. “People were saying, I saw this when I was younger. My gray hair went back to dark after this event had happened and people said I was crazy because it was not possible. Thank you for confirming that I’m not crazy,” said Picard.
Picard and his team examined 397 hairs from 14 healthy volunteers ranging in age from 9 to 65. All had some gray hairs or two-colored hair.
They described periods of extreme stress during the last year. The researchers then looked at tiny parts of their hair-a record that Picard compared to the rings of a tree — to infer what happened to the pigment (色素) during those troubled times. It turned out the increase in stress is closely connected with hair graying. But when they told researchers about a reduction in stress, some hairs got their pigment again.
Today, an unfriendly email or a controlling boss can cause a stress response. These changes help you continue to exist in difficult or dangerous situations, according to the authors. “The stress response is necessary because it helps ensure survival in evolutionary (进化的) terms, but there’s a cost to being stressed and the cost is that maybe some of the cells (细胞) age faster,” Picard said.
While hairs are growing, cells receive signals from the body, including stress hormones (chemicals produced by your body), the authors write. These hormones may cause changes in hair pigmentation and lead to gray hair. “But don’t put away the hair dye (染发剂) just yet,” Picard said. The effect is possible for only a certain age window and influences just some hair cells on someone’s head. So if you’ve had gray hair for many years, a long relaxing vacation won’t help it start growing black again.
7. How did people react to the story of gray hair turning black?
A. They disbelieved it. B. They were angry about it.
C. They were confident about it. D. They paid little attention to it.
8 What were the volunteers required to do in the study?
A. Report increases or reductions in stress. B. Compare their hairs to the rings of a tree.
C. Do relaxing activities like going on vacation. D. Draw their gray or two-colored hair.
9. What do the researchers say about stress response?
A. It will damage human health. B. It helps humans survive danger.
C. It may make cells grow much faster. D. It increases the chances of color returning.
10. Which statement might Picard agree with?
A. Common hair dyes are likely to cause gray hair. B. It is actually impossible for us to turn gray hair dark.
C. Reversal of graying may happen but in a limited way. D. Stress hormones may reverse the process of graying.

Dear Jeff,
I’m sorry to hear that you’re feeling troubled about watching short videos. Actually, they can be both helpful and harmful.
On the one hand, short videos can broaden our horizons and provide quick entertainment. Some educational videos are even useful for learning. On the other hand, spending too much time on them wastes energy and harms productivity. Worse still, constant screen time may affect mental health and focus.
To stay in control, you’d better set a time limit each day and choose meaningful content. Also, try outdoor activities or hobbies to take your mind off them.
Hope this helps!
Yours,
Li Hua
