Dear Eric,
I trust this message finds you well. I appreciate the diversity in presentation styles employed by students during our weekly book-sharing and I am writing to share my personal preference.
I find myself inclined towards spontaneous verbal expression. This preference is rooted in my belief that it allows for a more authentic and engaging interaction with the audience, contributing to a vibrant learning environment. Moreover, this approach encourages effective communication skills and boosts confidence. By expressing thoughts and ideas in real-time, the presenters are better equipped to articulate their points coherently, enhancing the ability to think on their feet.
Thank you for considering my perspective, and I look forward to more engaging class activities.
Best regards,
Li Hua

Possible version:
Paragraph 1
Just then, Mohamed noticed that a girl at a table near the window was giving him a rather amused look. Hoping that facial expressions were a little more universal than his English seemed to be at the moment, he smiled at the girl. She stood up and came over to Mohamed’s table. “Hello, I’m Luisa, from Spain.” the girl said, her voice coupled with an accent. The accent was a soft lilt that added a certain charm to her words. Mohamed stood up, thrilled to be able to talk to someone who was an immigrant, but at the same time, hoping she didn’t hear what he ordered or notice that he most certainly didn’t get what he asked for.
Paragraph 2
“The first time I tried to order a salad here, I ended up with a plate of pig’s feet,” the girl said. Amused, Mohamed giggled and for the first time on that day, he got relaxed. “He wasn’t the only one struggling to communicate.” With a surge of excitement, Mohamed started to share interesting things about America, stories back home in Tunisia. Although Luisa’s English was more fluent, Mohamed greatly enjoyed the conversation. He no longer felt like an isolated island in the neighborhood, firmly believing that his English would improve once he had lived here for a while. He could almost picture himself in a few months, chatting effortlessly with the locals and ordering his favorite food without any confusion.

Living on Earth:Forests,Corals,Consciousness,and the Making of the World
Peter Godfrey-Smith
★★★☆☆3.7359 ratings20 reviews
The bestselling author of Other Minds shows how we and our ancestors have reinvented our planet.
If the history of the Earth were compressed()down to a year,our species would arise in the last thirty
minutes or so of the final hour.But life itself has existed on Earth for something like 3.7 billion years.What have
these organisms-bacteria,animals,plants and the rest-done in all this time?In Living on Earth,Professor
Peter Godfrey-Smith tells the long story of living action,and its impact.Ranging from the seas to the forests,and
from animate matter's first appearance to its future extinction,he offers a novel picture of the course of life on
Earth and how we might meet the challenges of our time.

"Are you OK,Cassie?"Jonah asked,from the doorway of the Sea Holly Cafe.
Cassie had been sitting on a chair outside for the past 10 minutes,but not really taking in the beauty of the sea.
"Oh,I should be getting back to work."She rose hurriedly.
"We're not busy,take your time."Jonah came with a cappuccino for her.Thanks."She accepted the coffee,
Everything's fine."Then Jonah nodded,revealing a comforting smile,and went back inside.
He was a great boss,but Cassie didn't feel like telling him what was wrong.
Cassie had gone to study fine art hopefully but dropped out after only a year due to the unbearable
homesickness.Since then,she hadn't touched her paints for a whole year.Today was doomed to be a sad date,the
anniversary of her exciting plans turning to dust.She felt a crushing sense of disappointment.In her painting,she
had captured a good likeness of the cloudy sky and the reflection of the dying light upon the water,but the picture
did have a sad,dreary(沉闷的)quality.
About 20 minutes later,she was shocked by a voice at her shoulder,"That's beautiful."
英语试题卷·第3页(共8页)
Cassie turned,and there was a woman wearing a blue coat.The woman eyed it again."You have talent,but
there is much sadness in it,for one so young."Cassie's eyes were filled with tears."My name's Willow,"the
woman said kindly,"Why not try painting the sunrise instead,my dear?You might find it helps."
With Willow's words echoing in her brain,Cassie rose an hour earlier the next day,caught a bus to the beach
and began to paint again.
When she finished,Jonah was just opening up.He picked the painting up and appreciated it at eye height.
"Hey,this is good.It's really..."For a moment he struggled for the word,then found it and turned to her,beaming,
“Optimistic!'
In her picture the sun was powering into the sky,casting a clear,golden pathway across the sea.
24.Which of the following best explains"He was a great boss"underlined in paragraph 5?
A.Jonah engaged in a small talk with Cassie.

The Age of Information is mushrooming,perhaps even bulging.If you tried to download all the data
available today,you'd need more than 180 million years to do so.But you are wrong to assume that all this
information would stimulate a boost of innovation to match the output of data.Indeed,the last time we found
ourselves in a period of significant innovation,was more than 120 years ago,in the Age of Insight.
Innovations,both big and small,often occur as a moment of insight,which typically involves quiet signals
deep in the brain,just under the surface of awareness.Anything that helps us notice quiet signals,such as taking
breaks between meetings,simplifying learning approaches or avoiding digital distractions,can increase the
number of insights.However,it's becoming more challenging to find those signals with the ballooning use of
technology,stuffing every moment with an endless supply of content.
Besides,we also want to increase the quality of them-to be able to sort through big new ideas and find the
ones that have real value..Launched in20l5,the Eureka Scale(尤里卡量表)allows us to assess the strength of
our insight experiences on a five-point scale,which is marked by intense emotions,motivation,memory
advantage,aftershocks,and following ideas.The Scale combines these five variables into a single value and
allows us to define the importance of a new idea.The level-5 insight,involving the richest emotion,motivation,
and lasting impact,holds the greatest significance.Contributive to measuring and improving individual and
organizational performance,the Scale can be used to measure the impact of different kinds of work environments
and learning approaches on participants'growth.
For organizations to benefit from another age of insight,it's not enough to access more data or increase the
number of insights we generate.It's indeed essential to make space for the biggest ideas to emerge from all the
information.Using the shared language of the Eureka Scale will enable better decision-making toward practical
and competitive outcomes.And if we're to enter a new age of insight,we must design our environments to allow
for the best insight possible to surface.

29.According to the passage,how can the amount of insights be increased?
A.By making due pauses in your work schedule.
B.By consuming boundless social media content.
C.By avoiding distracting quiet signals in your brain
D.By adopting additional training and coaching approaches.
30.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.The Eureka Scale controls the influence of our insights.
B.Possessing minimal emotional responses is a level-5 insight.
C.Both the quantity and quality of insights are essential to innovation.
D.A breakthrough has been made in innovation due to a wealth of information.

The streets,sidewalks and roofs of cities all absorb heat during the day,making some urban areas across the
United States up to 6 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than rural ones during the day-and 22 degrees Fahrenheit hotter
at night.These"urban heat islands"can also develop underground as the city heat spreads downward,beneath the
surface.
And basements,subway tunnels and other underground infrastructure also constantly bleed heat into the
surrounding earth,creating hotspots.Now the underground heat is building up as the planet warms.According to
a new study of downtown Chicago,underground hotspots may threaten the very same structures that emit the heat
in the first place.Such temperature changes make the ground around them expand and contract enough to cause
potential damage."Without anyone realizing it,the city of Chicago's downtown was deforming,"says the study's
author Alessandro F.Rotta Loria,a civil and environmental engineer at Northwestern University.
The findings,published in Communications Engineering,expose a"silent hazard"to civil infrastructure in
cities with softer ground-especially those near water-Rotta Loria says."There might have been structural
issues caused by this underground climate change that happened,and we didn't even realize,"he adds.While not
an immediate or direct danger to human lives,this previously unknown effect highlights the impacts of a
lesser-known component of climate change.Similar to climate change above the surface,these underground
changes occur over long periods of time.
"These effects took decades,a century,to develop,"Rotta Loria says,adding that elevated underground
temperatures would likewise take a long time to dissipate (on their own.But other researchers
interviewed for this story all say this wasted energy could also be recycled,presenting an opportunity to both cool
the subsurface and save on energy costs.Subway tunnels and basements could be updated with technologies to
recapture the heat.
32.What can we learn about the"urban heat islands"?
A.They only exist in the United States.
B.They can damage the ground around.
C.They can develop underground structures
D.They have no impact on the surrounding environment
33.Why does Alessandro F.Rotta Loria mentionsilent hazard in paragraph 3?
A.To discuss structural issues.
B.To categorize climate change.
C.To explain underground heat
D.To emphasize the neglected reality
34.What will the author probably write about in the paragraph that follows?
A.The cost of maintaining structures.
B.The future of tunnels and basements
C.The reusing approaches of heat energy.
D.The evolution of underground environment
35.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.Urban Silent Islands in the Making
英语试题卷·第5页(共8页)
B.A Silver Lining of Global Warming
C.A Silent Crisis in Downtown Chicago
D.Warming Underground,Weakening Surface

The Getting Things Done(GTD)method refers to a personal productivity methodology (that redefines
how you approach your life and work.It relies on the idea that you need to simplify your workload.If you
frequently feel overwhelmed or you just have too much going on,this method might be great for you.
36
However,it can indeed easily be broken down into five main components.
37.Write it all down,either in a planner or a document,and don't skip anything,even if it seems
irrelevant.You will find it somehow helpful in the future.
Clarify what you have written down.Look at each task and identify the steps you can take to complete it.
Quickly write those down,so you break each task into steps.38.Then consider whether it can be
thrown out or handled later instead.
Organize by creating a to-do list,putting action items on your calendar,assigning smaller tasks,filing away
reference materials to create a timely,structured approach to getting it done.
Reflect frequently and review all your organized materials on a regular basis.39.Try using an
"after-action review"to comprehensively go over what you've done and what you need to work on or stick with
as you move forward.
Engage by tackling your action items knowingly and actively.You have a list of tasks and action items,an
organized system with dates and references,and a schedule for checking in with yourself.40
A little stress can push you to be more productive,but too much will have the opposite effect,so using the
GID method can really make you calm and confident.
A.Note down the main concerns in your life
B.Seize anything that is coming into your head
C.Sometimes you may feel it tough to work out the plan
D.The methodology of GTD may be involved enough to fill a whole book
E.Then you have all in place and work towards goal completion gradually
F.This could mean every Monday,you check it,update or revise something
G.You may find that there are no actionable steps associated with some tasks

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
The first day Mohamed went to a diner in his new neighborhood,he realized that he really wasn't in Tunisia
anymore.He looked up at the menu board,which had nothing but sandwiches on it,and wondered how he was
going to figure out what all of these weird names meant.Mohamed decided that he would just get dessert instead
and asked the woman at the counter for ice cream in a cup.She smiled broadly and disappeared behind the big
glass display case to fill his order.
While Mohamed waited,he looked at the baked goods in the case.There were sixteen kinds of bagels(
饼)and a few different types of cookies that Mohamed didn't recognize,.but there were no pastries(油酥糕点)
and definitely nothing from home.Mohamed had been so excited when his parents told him they were
immigrating to the United States,but now,his bravery and excitement felt a little misplaced.
The woman came back to the counter with a tall paper cup.It contained a long straw and some kind of frothy
()drink.Mohamed,completely puzzled,took the cup and thanked her,thinking about the possibility that
he had used the wrong word.
“t's the soda you ordered,”she said,“an ice cream drink in a cup.”
He smiled at the woman again,pointed at one of the bagels,and said,"That one,too,please,"which seemed
to work better.
Mohamed took the bagel and his mystery soda to a table and sat down to eat.Why was it that English had
been so easy for him in his classes in Tunisia,but when it came down to actually speaking,he couldn't even get
what he wanted to eat?Right now,it just felt depressing that his English was,he thought,poor.One mistake
seemed to put everything Mohamed wanted or knew about himself far out of reach.
Mohamed bit into his bagel and tried to pull a chunk of it off with his teeth.He wondered if an American
emigrating (to Tunisia would feel the same way,wondering what to eat,how to ask for it,and even
how to eat it.
