When she was a kid,Zandra always loved lip balms()and bought a lot of them.But she found they eventually hurt her lips instead of relieving the dryness because of all the chemicals in them.She then started experimenting with different ingredients()together with her mom.They tried a lot of times until they found the natural and healthy combinations they liked.Slowly,Zandra began selling her products at local farmers' markets and trade events.Before her 10th birthday,she launched her brand and hoped it would inspire other young girls. Soon,it became a challenge for Zandra to separate her personal interests from what her customers usually wanted."There are a lot of ideas that I feel are excellent but wouldn't fit into the market,"she said.Her business being part of the market,Zandra recognized the issue and improved her products after truly listening to customers. "There are so many brands doing similar things,but there is still so much room to grow.Your customers are out there,and you just have to reach out to them.That's what will set you apart,"the 23-year-old shared. When asked about her experience as a promising young businesswoman,Zandra said,"It wasn't frightening. When you are young,fear doesn't have a strong hold on your mindset.That maybe it was not going to work never really crossed my mind." Characterized by encouraging statements and featuring a playful color combination,the packaging is a big part of why Zandra's business has been so successful."There are a lot of products on the market that seem natural, but they actually aren't,"she said."I make sure that my packaging can help people understand what each term means,and how to read and check ingredients." 24.What contributed to Zandra's getting into the skincare business?

C Due to social events in recent years,the relationship between social media and teenagers mental health has been under heated discussion. On Sept 30 a British court decided that content on social media platforms contributed to the depression of -14-year-old Molly Russell.Russell interacted with 2,100 posts related to pessimistic,self-harm in the six months, leading up to her depression,reported the Observer website. The correlation has also been proved by science.A study in 2019 showed that the frequent use of social media by teenagers can lead to a decrease in their mental health. So,how can we make sure that teenagers won't get hurt while using social media?Chan,18,from the University of Macao shared her experience.Chan said that she once came across short videos romanticizing mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety.She immediately reported them to the platform. But she said that the users'power to regulate videos is still limited.'It is ultimately the responsibility of the social media platforms to filter out content that is potentially harmful."She also noticed that the age of social media users has become increasingly younger.Society should pay attention to this,she said."Since it's not possible to cut off access to social media for younger users,why not introduce a 'supervision mode'with which parents can regulate the content to be viewed by teenagers beforehand?"she said. Wu Chengyu,18,studies at Tianjin Experimental High School.He said that several years ago he came across a game that lures teenagers to self-abuse and depression.He quickly chose to ignore it so he wouldn't be influenced.This is the same way he reacts when exposed to negative content on social media. In Wu's opinion,teenagers today should improve their social media literacy(),telling real from fake and good from bad."Also,everyone can be a content creator on social media."he said,"We should all strengthen our awareness of ethics'”. 28.What led to Russell's depression according to a British court?

B.Social media platforms. C.Content creators. D.Social media users 31.What does Wu advise teenagers to do? A.Use social media wisely B.Reduce social media usage. C.Stay away from online games.

D Few would be satisfied to go on a multiyear project to Mars with a diet of bland,prepackaged meals.As space organizations plan for longer exploration,they're faced with the challenge of how to best feed people.Now, researchers have designed the perfect"space meal":a tasty vegetarian salad.They choose fresh ingredients() that meet male astronauts'specialized needs for nutritious()food and can be grown in space. Astronauts in space burn more calories than humans on Earth and require extra micronutrients to stay healthy during long periods in space.Also,future long-term tasks will require growing food in an environmentally-friendly way within the spacecraft or settlements on other planets.While researchers have explored methods of growing food in space and what nutrients astronauts require to stay healthy,specific fresh meals have not been developed.So,Volker Hessel and coworkers wanted to make a space meal that meets those unique requirements of spaceflight and tastes good. First,the researchers examined mixes of fresh ingredients.In this case,their model showed how well the mixes of different foods could satisfy a male astronaut's daily nutritional needs while using the smallest amount of water for growing the foods.The team was also concerned about environmental protection,selecting ingredients that needed little fertilizer(),time and area to grow and whether uneatable parts could be reused.They found that a Vegetarian meal made up of soybeans,peanuts,sweet potato and sunflower seeds had the best balance of lots of nutrients and low farming needs. To make sure the chosen mix was tasty,the team made the space meal into a salad for four people to have a taste test here on Earth.One tester said he "wouldn't mind eating this all week as an astronaut."Other people went back for second helpings.In the future,the researchers plan to see what their computer model dishes up as choices for female astronauts and add more variety to crops in their database. 32.What does the underlined word"bland"in the first paragraph probably mean? A.Nutritious. B.Expensive. C.Tasteless. D.Fresh. 33.What does the second paragraph focus on? A.The challenges of space travel. B.The methods of growing food in space. C.The problems with multiyear space tasks. D.The reasons for developing the space meal. 34.What do we know about the space food designed by the researchers? A.It is free from fertilizer. B.It takes a short time to grow the ingredients C.It mixes the ingredients with water. D.It is designed for female astronauts. 心 35.What is the testers'attitude towards the space meal? A.Favorable. B.Doubtful. C.Unconcerned. D.Mixed. 第二节（共5个小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。选项中 有两项为多余选项。 Feeling upset is a normal part of life.Something stressful may occur everywhere and make you angry or anxious.We can't control what is happening around us.36Here are some useful ways to keep our cool when we feel frustrated. 37 Conflicts with others can be difficult to deal with.Sometimes we need to leave from the unpleasant condition.
