Last summer, I joined a summer program in my university. I travelled to Oxford, England to take a Shakespeare course at Oxford University.
Oxford is a small town with beautiful old buildings. It was such an amazing experience to meet a new culture and I often found myself falling into deep thinking about everything new around me.
Even though I was abroad, I wasn’t on vacation. There was a lot of work to do, such as writing and exams. But studying abroad allowed me to experience a new way of learning. I got to see plays at Shakespeare’s Globe in London and the Royal Shakespeare Company in Stratford. I love reading Shakespeare, and watching his plays in the theatre was great for my learning because it helped me understand the great works better.
The summer programme was, of course, mainly about study. However, there was time for fun. We had classes every morning from Monday to Thursday, so we could be free in the rest of time. Although we had so much studying, some people including me took trips to different countries around Europe because travelling is much cheaper there.
It took me almost a school year to fill out applications (申请) and prepare myself for going abroad. I have never travelled internationally before I got this great chance. I also developed many friendships with my new friends and they will last a lifetime. The experience has been my best part of summer so far!
36. Why did the writer go to England last summer?
A. To join in a summer programme. B. To visit his or her relatives.
C. To travel in London. D. To buy a new house for his or her parents.
37. Why was watching Shakespeare’s plays in the theatre great for the writer’s learning?
A. Because the plays can make the writer happy.
B. Because the plays can help the writer understand better.
C. Because the writer had tickets.
D. Because the plays were free to see.
38. How long did the writer have classes in a week?
A. Four weekends. B. Four afternoons. C. All weekdays. D. Four mornings.
39. What does the underlined word “they” refer to?
A. Many friendships. B. My summer programme.
C. The learning experiences. D. Trips to different countries
40. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The long history of Oxford University. B. The ways to prepare for studying abroad.
C. The writer’s study life in Oxford University. D. How to make friends in England.

Today, more and more children use smartphones (智能手机) too much in their everyday life. This could be bad for their health and development. Parents may be wondering what the phones are actually doing to their kids’ health. Here are some of the ways that too much screen time may influence (影响) kids.
Sleep
Children’s sleep can be influenced by smartphone use. And the same is true for adults. Too much screen time has a strong connection with shorter total sleep time in children. How long can be seen as overuse? It means using phones for more than an hour each day.
Anxiety (焦虑)
According to a recent study, more hours of screen time will cause lower well-being (幸福) in ages 2 to 17. High users of screens (more than 7 hours a day) in teenagers are found to be more than twice as likely to feel worried and unhappy.
Focus
The long-time use of smartphones also reduces the attention span (持续时间) in children. It may influence other functions (功能) of the brain, including the ability to remember things. And it is easy for them to fall behind in their learning, because they can’t put their whole heart into the study.

52. Overuse means using phones for more than ________________ each day.
53. More hours of screen time will cause lower well-being in ________________.
54. The long-time use of smartphones may reduce the attention span ________________.
55. In this passage, the writer talked about ________________ ways all together that too much screen time may influence kids.

In June 2024. American astronauts Suni Williams and Barry Wilmore went to the International Space Station (ISS) for an 8-day trip. But they stayed on the ISS for 9 months because of problems with their spacecraft, the Boeing Starliner!
During their time in space, the two astronauts were really busy. Williams set a new record for the longest total time spent on spacewalks by a female astronaut. They also did many science studies to help future space development. They watched how fish live in zero gravity (重力), studied how plants grow in space, and learned about changes in the human immune (免疫) system. For example, Williams showed in a video how she drank in air from a fish tank to watch fish swim differently without gravity. These studies help us understand how to live in space for a long time.
NASA tried to take them home with Space X Dragon spacecraft. Finally, on March 18, 2025, they came back to Earth safely. After landing, Williams said she was happy to go home but proud of their work. Wilmore said there were problems but he still wanted to fly on Starliner again.

Last summer, I joined a summer program in my university. I travelled to Oxford, England to take a Shakespeare course at Oxford University.
Oxford is a small town with beautiful old buildings. It was such an amazing experience to meet a new culture and I often found myself falling into deep thinking about everything new around me.
Even though I was abroad, I wasn’t on vacation. There was a lot of work to do, such as writing and exams. But studying abroad allowed me to experience a new way of learning. I got to see plays at Shakespeare’s Globe in London and the Royal Shakespeare Company in Stratford. I love reading Shakespeare, and watching his plays in the theatre was great for my learning because it helped me understand the great works better.
The summer programme was, of course, mainly about study. However, there was time for fun. We had classes every morning from Monday to Thursday, so we could be free in the rest of time. Although we had so much studying, some people including me took trips to different countries around Europe because travelling is much cheaper there.
It took me almost a school year to fill out applications (申请) and prepare myself for going abroad. I have never travelled internationally before I got this great chance. I also developed many friendships with my new friends and they will last a lifetime. The experience has been my best part of summer so far!
36. Why did the writer go to England last summer?
A. To join in a summer programme. B. To visit his or her relatives.
C. To travel in London. D. To buy a new house for his or her parents.
37. Why was watching Shakespeare’s plays in the theatre great for the writer’s learning?
A. Because the plays can make the writer happy.
B. Because the plays can help the writer understand better.
C. Because the writer had tickets.
D. Because the plays were free to see.
38. How long did the writer have classes in a week?
A. Four weekends. B. Four afternoons. C. All weekdays. D. Four mornings.
39. What does the underlined word “they” refer to?
A. Many friendships. B. My summer programme.
C. The learning experiences. D. Trips to different countries
40. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The long history of Oxford University. B. The ways to prepare for studying abroad.
C. The writer’s study life in Oxford University. D. How to make friends in England.
