Young people born between the mid-1990s and 2000s have another name in English-Generation Z. They grew up in a special period of time-a time in which technology developed fast, social changes happened every day, the internet became universal.This is a group of people who have been familiar with social media as soon as they were born. “We are the first true digital natives (数字原住民). I can almost create a document (文档), edit it, post a photo on Instagram and talk on the phone, all at the same time,” said Hannah Payne, an 18-year-old student at UCLA, according to The New York Times. “Generation Z takes in information very fast and loses interest just as fast.”Generation Z-ers are culture creators. “Growing up with the internet has freed this generation from traditional cultural expression,” wrote Grace Masback, a Huffington Post blogger and a Gen Z-er herself. According to Masback, these young people are no longer willing to let their creativity be limited by their parents or traditional rules. They watch videos and read news online instead of on TV, and they share their experiences on social media. “We decide what kind of content we want to experience and choose how we experience it,” wrote Masback.It is believed that Generation Z is the generation that is going to shape our future, which is why policy makers, sociologists and company leaders are trying their best to understand these young people.11. A person ________ who is called Generation Z. A. was born in 1990 or laterB. created high technologyC. grew up in the internet eraD. changed the society greatly12. What can we infer from paragraph2?A. Gen Z-ers are proud of being the first true digital natives very much.B. Gen Z-ers have no interest in the information they get from the internet.C. It’s impossible for Gen Z-ers to do more than one thing at the same time.D. Social media has changed the way Gen Z-ers understand information.13. According to Masback, why are Gen Z-ers culture creators?A. They have the courage to fight against traditional culture.B. They enjoy sharing their own experiences on social media.C. They get many different ideas from videos and news online.D. Their parents give them more freedom to express themselves.14. Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude towards Gen Z-ers?A. Confident.B. Wait-and-see.C. Sympathetic.D. Worried.15. Where can we possibly read this article?A. In business newspapers.B. On digital reports.C. On culture magazines.D. On job advertisements.BIn a digital age, we almost never write things by hand. However, new brain research, led by researchers at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, confirms handwriting has many benefits. It results in better learning and memory over using a keyboard.The study was conducted using equipment to track and record brain wave activity. The participants included 12 young adults and 12 children. Each was asked to write by hand and type on a keyboard while wearing a hood (风帽)with over 250 electrodes (电极). The sensors (传感器) in the electrodes are very sensitive and pick up the electrical activity that takes place in the brain. Each person took turns to have a 45-minute examination.The results showed that the brain in both young adults and children is much more active when writing by hand than when typing on a keyboard. According to Van der Meer, plenty of senses are activated by pressing a pen on paper. These sense experiences build contact between different parts of the brain, opening the brain up for learning.Van der Meer believes that the results stress the importance of children being challenged to draw and write at an early age, especially at school. “Learning to write by hand is a bit slower process, but it’s important for children to go through the tiring phase of learning to write by hand,” she said. The hand movements used to form the shapes of letters are beneficial in several ways. “If you use a keyboard, you use the same movement for each letter. Writing by hand requires control of your fine motor(精细动作) skills and senses. It is important to put the brain in a learning state as often as possible,” Van der Meer added.16. What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Learning.B. Memorizing.C. Typing.D. Handwriting.17. What do we know about the study?A. The study involved 24 children in altogether.B. All the participants were divided into two groups.C. Sensors were used to record brain wave activity.D. Participants took examinations at the same time.18. Why does the brain become more active when writing by hand?A. Writing by hand is easier to make the brain work.B. Hearing the sound made by writing takes much brain.C. Seeing letters while writing attracts more attention.D. Plenty of senses are activated to open the brain up.19. How does handwriting help people according to Van der Meer?A. It makes people become smarter.B. It improves people’s motor skills.C. It helps people get more patience.D. It arouses people’s interest in learning.20. Why did the author write this article?A. To present a new research on handwriting.B. To tell people the history of handwriting.C. To show the importance of writing by hand.D. To teach people how to improve handwriting.CMaddie Camargo and her mother, Stephanic Dufour, thought the screams for help were just Boy Scouts（童子军）messing around（瞎闹）. But then they saw the scene:scouts surrounded a hiker who had taken a scary six-meter drop in an area near the Hoover Dam, a fall that had left his right arm with a bone sticking out.The mother and daughter were supposed to be having a fun-filled weekend to celebrate Camargo’s 17th birthday. But the kayaking（划独木舟）trip turned into an emergency life-saving adventure. They pulled onto some sand. The boy scouts, who had called 911, had tied a loose bandage（绑带）around the hiker's broken arm to stop the bleeding.Camargo knew another bandage was needed and thought back to her lifeguard training.

The girl grew up doing junior guards and had recently taken a CPR（cardiopulmonary resuscitation, 心肺复苏）and first-aid class as part of her training to become a lifeguard. “This is something she will never forget. ” said her mom, Stephanie Dufour.“ She now really likes the emergency medical field and has been considering her college and future career choices. ”It’s not the first time Camargo has quickly jumped into action when needed.
