Rheeya, 11, says that she was lucky to be selected to join the qigong club at school and she now likes practicing it every day by herself at home.‎ The children's qigong instructor Nicola Day, a member of British Qigong Association, introduced qigong into the United Kingdom school curriculum(课程)a year ago after becoming aware of its health benefits.‎ ‎"As a teacher I notice that the children in the UK are stressed by school work and life in general.

The university is offering the 12-week course to students from all university disciplines in 2020, which will count towards 20 of their 120 credit points for their first year. The course, to be taught by Professor Bruce Hood, an expert who studies how the brain works and how humans think, will explore what happiness is and how to achieve it.‎ In 2018, 400 students signed up for a pilot happiness course at the university, which did not result in academic credits, as part of the university's efforts to improving well-being.‎ Professor Hood said, "We're really excited that the university has got behind the course. This course will be built and established on what we've already learnt in 2018 but of course we're going to ‎ monitor the students much more closely because it's for academic credits. They can't take an easy option-they've really got to put a lot of effort into it."‎ The voluntary course was originally introduced amid growing concerns about student mental health. In 2018, students called for more support and services for young people with mental health issues at the university. Under the new course, students will attend a one-hour lecture each week as well as a "happiness hub". Lectures will address a series of issues, including whether happiness is in the genes and if it can really be changed, how our minds influenced happiness and the role of culture in happiness.‎ Students will be asked to select one of seven happiness exercises to practice for a week, and then evaluate the effect it has on them. This will be discussed at the weekly happiness hub meetings. The exercises include sleeping more, meditating(冥想), expressing gratitude for people and things and practicing random acts of kindness.‎ ‎18. What will the students learn in Professor Hood's class?‎ A. The benefits of happiness. B. The causes of happiness.‎ C. The way the brain works. D. The meaning of happiness.‎ ‎19. What do we know about the course in 2018 and the one in 2020?‎ A. Students needed to study hard to pass the 2018 course.‎ B. Students from all majors could sign up the 2018 course.‎ C. The university will be much stricter with the 2020 course.‎ D. Students will be much happier after attending the 2020 course.‎ ‎20. The original reason for introducing the course was to_‎ A. improve students' mental health. B. help students get more credits.‎ C. restrict students' daily behavior. D. improve students' academic performance.‎ ‎21. The text is written to A. introduce a college professor C. inform readers of news B. teach readers to sign up D. make readers happy D For all the good they do, eye drops have one major drawback: it's hard to tell how much of the medication is actually getting to the eye. Now in a study, scientists report that they have developed a contact lens(隐形眼镜)that changes color as drugs are released. This visual indicator could help eye ‎ doctors and patients readily determine whether these medications are where they should be.‎ Eyes are good at keeping things out. When something gets into or toward an eye, the lids blink and tears start rapidly flowing to avoid infection and damage from foreign objects. These processes are usually helpful, but they can block the uptake of much-needed medications. Studies suggest that less than 5 percent of drugs in eye drops are absorbed, and much of the absorbed medication ends up in the bloodstream instead of the eye, causing side effects. Contact lenses may be a more effective way to deliver drugs directly to the eye, but real-time monitoring of drug release is still a challenge. So Dawei Deng and Zhouying Xie sought to create a drug-delivering contact lens that would change color as the medication is released into the eye.‎ The researchers made a color-sensitive contact lens using a technique that creates tiny holes that match the size and shape of a specific medicine. In laboratory experiments, the contact lenses were loaded with a drug used to treat a kind of eye disease. Then, the team exposed the lenses to a solution of artificial tears, which was used as a substitute for the eye. As the drug was released from the contacts, the architecture of the molecules near the drug changed, which also changed the color in the iris(虹膜)area of the lenses. They conclude that this new lens could control and indicate the continuous release of many eye-related drugs.‎ ‎22. Why did scientists develop the new contact lens?‎ A. To cure shortsightedness. B. To keep out the strong light.‎ C. To protect eyes from damage. D. To indicate eye drug delivery.‎ ‎23. Where do most of the eye drops go if delivered onto the eyes?‎ A. They are absorbed by the eyes. B. They are swallowed by patients.‎ C. They end up in the eye bloodstreams. D. They are blocked out or washed away.‎ ‎24. Why was the solution of artificial tears used in the experiment?‎ A. For replacing the eyes. B. For indicating the changes.‎ C. For absorbing eye drops. D. For controlling the release.‎ ‎25. What's the main idea of the passage?‎ A. Patients with eye disease have hope to recover totally.‎ B. Eye medicine can be improved with the help of the new lens.‎ C. Color-changing contact lenses can improve eye disease treatment.‎ D. Side effects of eye drops will reduce thanks to the new lens.‎ 第二节 七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ According to a recent study, kids who are physically active 20 minutes before a test tend to score better. 26 ‎ Physical activity strengthens a child's ability to concentrate. Studies have shown that exercising before a test helps students to score better on a test.‎ ‎ 27 Being able to recall key facts and concepts quickly is extremely important to doing well on tests, and research has shown physical activities can help in this aspect as well. In one study published in Brain Research, 9 and 10-year-olds who were physically fit had larger hippocampi(海马)than other children of similar age, which enabled the kids to perform better on memory tasks.‎ Exercise boosts confidence. Regular physical activity increases confidence in all areas of life, including learning. 28 In other words, believing leads to achieving!‎ Exercise reduces stress and anxiety. Students tend to be nervous before exams. 29 What if I forget everything? What if my pencil breaks? Physical activities can help clear the mind, reduce stress and get rid of those negative thoughts.‎ The benefits of physical activity increase over time. 30 And it also increases the amount of oxygen flowing to the brain, which supports higher learning and thinking.‎ A. What if I fail?‎ B. Physical activity improves memory.‎ C. Physical activity improves creativity.‎ D. Students who are more confident are better problem solvers.‎ E. Exercise makes a student a good learner in the long run.‎ F. Physical activity, in fact, leads to all kinds of brain-boosting benefits.‎ G.
