20、hristmas, and there were a lot of people waiting in a long queue at the post office hall. It seemed that no one was moving. I came to the self-service machine where the queue was much shorter.I dont like self-service because Im not good at it. The machine always asks me something I dont know how to
21、answer. I hate this. I like the old-fashioned way: hand to hand, human to human. I think it is fast and friendly.The woman in the front of the queue was clicking away at the screen. And the clicks were surprisingly loud. There were many signs of hesitation(犹豫) on her part. I felt sorry for her: The
22、machine could smell fear and nervous. The next person took a long time, too. I breathed deeply. By the time it was my turn, I was so nervous that I felt the beat of my heart.I felt a growing pressure and I tried to minimized (减少) the seconds between clicks. Finally it was time to slide in a credit c
23、ard. The machine didnt take it. “Trying putting it in the other way,” the gentleman behind me suggested. No good.“Ive got a different card,” I said, and looked for it in my handbag, beginning to sweat. The machine wanted a PIN (个人密码) , but not the one I suggested.“Start over,” I clicked; I tried the
24、 first card again.Oh, no. I had to start all over again.“Im sorry,” I said, looking back, embarrassed. “You all go ahead.”“Dont give up,” said the nice man behind me. “Try it again. Were all friends here, right?”Seeing smiling on their face, I tried again, clicked carefully and introduce my credit c

27、away when you hear a bee buzzing? Many people do. A bee sting hurts and some people are allergic 过敏症的 to bee venom. But did you know that bees are very important to humans? Honeybees do more than just make honey. They fly around and pollinate flowers, plants, and trees. Our fruits, nuts, and vegetab
28、les rely on these pollinators. One third of Americas food supply is pollinated by the honeybee. Honeybees pollinate plants that give us fruit and vegetables.Have you seen or heard a honeybee lately? Bees are mysteriously (神秘地)disappearing in many parts of the world. Most people dont know about this
29、problem. It is called “colony collapse disorder“ (CCD). Some North American beekeepers lost 80% of their hives from 2006-2008. Bees in Italy and Australia are disappearing too.The disappearance of the honeybee is a serious problem. Can you imagine never eating another blueberry? What about almonds a
30、nd cherries? Without honeybees food prices will skyrocket. The poorest people always suffer the worst when there is a lack of food.This problem affects other foods besides fresh produce. Imagine losing your favorite ice cream! Haagen Daaz is a famous ice cream company. Many of their flavors rely on
31、the hard working honeybee. In 2008, Haagen Daaz began raising money for CCD. They also funded a garden at the University of California called The Haven. This garden helps raise awareness about the disappearing honeybee and teaches visitors how to plant for pollinators.Donating money to research is t
32、he most important thing humans can do to save the honeybee. Scientists need money to investigate the causes of Colony Collapse Disorder. Some scientists blame CCD on climate change. Others think pesticides are killing the bees. Commercial (盈利性的) bee migration may also cause CCD. Beekeepers transport
33、 their hives from place to place in order to pollinate plants year round.Not everyone has money to donate regularly. There are other ways to help the honeybee. Spread the word by telling your friends and family about the problem. Tell your teacher about the disappearing bees too. Maybe your class ca
34、n write a letter to the government. 27. Honeybees are very important because they produce honey and_.A. sting people B. treat allergies C. pollinate flowers D. buzz everywhere28.

36、best title for the passage?A. The Disappearing Honeybee B. The Important HoneybeeC. The Problems of Honeybee D. The Investigation of HoneybeeD Why Music Isnt for Everyone?They say music is universal, and it seems to be true since wherever we go, we see people listening, playing or dancing to it. We
37、tend to think that music is larger than our cultural differences and shows the deeper connections between us.But according to a recent study published in the journal Current Biology, music doesnt speak to everyone. There is a condition, the researchers argue, called “musical anhedonia (音乐快感丧失)”. The
38、y say that those who have this condition lack the ability to experience pleasure from music.For the study, 30 people listened to the same, mostly classical music pieces. They were then asked to complete a questionnaire on how they felt about the music. At the same time, the researchers measured thei
39、r heart rate and skin reaction, which are considered physiological (生理的) measures of emotion.According to the researchers, most of the people in the study got pleasure from the music. They had a quicker heartbeat and sweated (出汗) more. However, a small number had very little and even no pleasant fee
40、ling while they listened. These people had none or very few of the physical signs the others in the study experienced.The researchers say that this means people have different abilities to enjoy music and that “there are people who specifically cant enjoy music at all”, study author Josep Marco-Pall
41、ares of the University of Barcelona in Spain told Live Science. To study the condition further, another group of scientists, at Columbia University, US, researched brain activities. They found that the key is the blood flow (血流量 ) to the reward system in the brain.“People who got less pleasure from
42、music had comparatively lower blood flow to areas involved in the reward system of the brain when listening to music,” reported the Daily Mail.The lower blood flow makes it more likely that the brains “reward system” will be inactive. Thus, it will release（释放） less of the “pleasure chemical” dopamin
43、e (多巴胺 ). As a result, people get less pleasure from music.If the research is correct, according to National Public Radio, there are simply people who just dont get music. They may get pleasure from many things, but a good tune (曲调 ) isnt one of them. 831. What do we know about people with “musical
44、anhedonia”?A. They usually avoid listening to music.B. They like to listen to certain types of music.C. They believe cultural differences are larger than music.D. They cant feel the pleasure that music brings to others.32. What was the purpose of the study?A. To learn what music people love most.B.

What happened to the participants when they listened to music?A. All of them had faster heartbeat and sweated more.B. People w
46、ho enjoyed music had more dopamine released.C. They showed different physical signs as the music changed.D. People who got less pleasure from music had higher blood flow. 四、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 （共 10 分，每小题 2 分）Do you use emoji very often? Its said that emoji is fastest growing language in history.
