The number of new deaths from the novel coronavirus(新型冠状病毒)reported in Wuhan, Hubei province, by Monday reaching the lowest in 10 days can indicate a change, said Qiu Haibo, a member on the expert panel of the National Health Commission. Qiu said in an interview with China Central Television on Tuesday that the number of new infections and new deaths is declining, which means that the measures adopted in the city have gradually taken effect. He said the critically ill patients were treated intensively ① . The 10 appointed hospitals with 8, 000 beds for critical patients had 1, 000 empty beds on Tuesday. ''Moreover, a large number of national medical teams have arrived in Wuhan since the beginning of February, bringing Wuhan's treatment level to a national standard ② , '' he said. ''In general, it can be said with caution and optimism that the treatment of critically ill patients has gradually shown its effect through the previous efforts, '' he said. He said the declining number is also owing to more timely treatment since February when medical resources have become more sufficient. It may also be related to the nature of infectious diseases ③ . As medical resources are becoming more and more sufficient and the country's medical strength is gathered in Wuhan, they are confident that the number of critically ill patients will continue to drop. He added that the treatment has become more standardized and general patients can now receive more timely treatment to prevent them from becoming critically ill ④ . The treatment concept has also changed from treating a single organ to multiple organs. ''A series of progress in treatment and knowledge can help reduce the proportion of severe illness and increase the recovery rate, '' he said. 1.What is not the factor contributing the reduced number of new deaths? A.There are many more beds in hospitals in Wuhan. B.Medical teams from across the country have come. C.Diverse resources have become more sufficient. D.The virulence becomes weak as it gets warmer. 2.Where can ''that the virulence may be decreasing as the disease passes from person to person'' be put in the passage? A.① B.② C.③ D.④ 3.What is the best title of the passage? A.Ill patients are treated intensively in Wuhan B.Decline in new Wuhan deaths shows measures work C.Treatment has become more standardized D.From treating a single organ to multiple organs

Adulting is hard. While high school students are at the forefront of technological and learning skills, it's often not until they leave home that they learn everyday life skills. Some believe that high schools should offer a commonsense course in which students are taught how to pay bills, change a tire or cook. Now, one Kentucky school is offering an ''adulting day'' to teach such skills to students in their senior year. The class of 2019 at Bullitt Central High School in Shepherdsville, Ky., traded in their algebra and literature classes for a day to learn some positive life skills, according to Wave 3 News. ''I think that the idea occurred to me, originally, when I saw a Facebook post that parents passed around saying they needed a class in high school on taxes and cooking, '' Christy Hardin, director of the BCHS Family Resource & Youth Services Center, told Wave 3. ''Our kids can get that, but they have to choose it. And ''Wednesday'' was a day they could pick and choose pieces they didn't feel like they had gotten so far. '' Members of the community helped provide the lessons for the students one on one, including local police who taught them how to interact with officers during traffic stops, a speaker who explained how to decipher the difference between homesickness and depression, and others who discussed how to use credit cards, how to cook in a dorm room and how to change a tire. While many people on Facebook applauded the idea, with some arguing, ''This should be taught in every high school, '' others wondered what became of home economics. Now known as Family and Consumer Sciences, these courses teach students how to cook, sew and budget, along with other skills. In many districts, however, the classes are electives and students do not always choose to take them. ''About time this came back, it was called Home Economics, '' one woman wrote. ''In today's diverse make up of families it would be a welcome addition. '' Another shared, ''We had home economics that taught us to cook and learned how to sew. We also had business math that taught us banking and finances. Why in the world is that not taught today? I mean, a special day called adulting to teach kids this stuff? Should be a required class credit. '' 1.What can we infer from the first paragraph? A.High school students are too busy to learn everyday life skills. B.The schools in other districts have never taught everyday life skills to students. C.High school students are advanced in technological and learning skills. D.High school students are lacking in everyday life skills. 2.What put BCHS in the spotlight? A.It did everything it could to cater to the parents. B.It taught life skills at the cost of academic courses. C.It offered parents opportunities to instruct classes. D.It allow students to decide on their own subjects. 3.The underlined word ''decipher'' in paragraph 4 probably means “________”. A.determine B.define C.discriminate D.distribute 4.Which of the following skills are included in the courses? a. use credit cards b. learn algebra and literature c. change a tire d. how to cook A.abc B.bcd C.acd D.abd 5.What are people's attitudes towards the courses? A.Supportive B.Opposed C.Skeptical D.Indifferent

The study of psychology is facing a crisis. The Research Excellence Framework (the Ref) has led to a research culture which is holding back attempts to stabilize psychology in particular, and science in general. The Ref encourages universities to push for groundbreaking innovative, and exciting research in the form of 4* papers, but it does not reward the efforts of those who replicate studies. The point of replicating a study is to test whether a statistically significant result will appear again if the experiment is repeated. Of course, a similar result may not appear – casting into questions the validity of the results from the first experiment. Last year, the Open Science Collaboration attempted to replicate 100 studies from highly ranked psychological journalists. While 97% of the original studies had a statistically significant result, just 36% of the replications had the same outcome. Equally worrying: when an effect did appear, it was often much smaller than previously thought. Recent data calls into question some widely influential findings in psychological science. These problems are not confined to psychology however – many findings published in scientific literature may actually be false. Science is supposed to be self-correcting and reproducible is a cornerstone of the scientific method. Yet, we simply aren't invested in replicating findings. We all want to be good researchers and understand more about how the world works. So why are we so reluctant to check our conclusions are valid? Because no incentive is provided by the system we carry out our research in. In the UK, the Ref ranks the published works of researchers according to their originality (how innovative is the research?), significance (does it have practical or commercial importance?), and rigour (is the research technically right?). Outputs are then awarded one to four stars. 4* papers are considered world-leading. The cumulative total of 3* and 4* papers determines research funding allocation and has a knock-on effect on institutional position in league tables(排名表) and therefore attractiveness to students. Obviously, the more publications, the better. Worrying, many academics admit to engaging in at least one questionable research practice in order to achieve publication. Examples of this include: coming up with a theory after data is collected, stopping collecting data when an effect appears in case it disappears later, or only reporting the significant effects from collected data. Others simply fabricate data-Dutch psychologist Diederik Stapel shockingly falsified data from more than 50 studies. The Ref completely harms our efforts to produce a reliable body of knowledge. Why? The focus on originality – publications exploring new areas of research using new paradigms, and avoiding testing well-established theories – is the exact opposite of what science needs to be doing to solve the troubling replication crisis. According to Ref standards, replicating an already published piece of work is simply uninteresting. With the next Ref submission just four years away, many researchers are effectively faced with a choice: be a good scientist, or be a successful academic who gets funding and a promotion. 1.What crisis is the study of psychology facing? A.The Ref has led to a revolution in not only psychology but also science. B.The universities are encouraged to generate more groundbreaking research. C.The Ref’s indifference to replications of studies has led to worrying effects. D.The Ref tends to set up a different standard for replications of studies. 2.What do the numbers in Para. 3 indicate? A.Scientific studies may not prove scientific. B.Science needs to be updated frequently. C.Journals should be stricter with studies, D.It is getting hard to count on scientists. 3.The Ref's focus on originality has brought about ___________. A.a reliable body of knowledge B.publications exploring new areas C.tests of well-established theories D.uninteresting replications of studies 4.We can infer from the passage that the Ref ____________. A.is a system for assessing the quality of research in UK universities B.provides UK researchers with funding and job opportunities C.recognizes researchers' work and adds to their attractiveness to students D.is planning to change its standard before the next Ref submission 5.What does the writer mean by saying ''be a good scientist''? A.Reform the standards that have been set up by the Ref. B.Avoid using false research practices to test old theories. C.Give up possible funding and promotion given by universities. D.Contribute to the solution to the replication crisis.

请认真阅读下面短文, 并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。 When is it time to start thinking about a new job?Is it acceptable to switch jobs to work with a close friend?Can you leave an employer after the two-week training period is up?Should you stick with the same employer for over a year, even though you aren't learning anything new? As with so many things in life, these are questions only you can answer. However, there are several considerations to take before you terminate your employment. The hiring process is costly and time-intensive, and your employer has decided that you are worth the effort. This is a big responsibility and privilege. While it doesn't mean that you have to remain at a job for the rest of your life, you should be fair enough to give the employer at least a few months of your time. Get through the training, settle into a routine, and then decide. If you still don’t like it or something better comes up, you'll at least know you tried. Perhaps your best friend just started at the counter of the local gym, and it sounds like fun. Maybe you found an opening for a job you've been wanting for years. It could just be that you're bored and looking for something new. No matter what it is, however, make sure you take the time to weigh the pros and cons. Working with a friend might be fun for a while-until you both want the same Saturday off to go to the lake. The job of your dreams might pay less or offer fewer hours. If you're bored, there's a chance that another job might provide a temporary solution but not give you whatever it is you are seeking. You're young, and the possibilities for your future are endless. While the teen job you have now isn't necessarily going to map out your entire life, there's nothing wrong with making decisions that will provide you with more opportunities later on in life. If you want to be a doctor, working at the hospital gift shop might be a better choice than flipping burgers. If you want to be a chef, the reverse is true. If your current job isn’t necessarily aligned with your future, you might want to consider switching jobs. No matter what you decide, remember that the longer you are at a job, the better it looks on your resume. An employer who sees that you switch jobs every few months might not prefer you over a candidate who was with his or her former employer for a year. For working teens, dedication and commitment always look good.

请阅读下面文字, 并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。 This week should have seen the beginning of a new semester. Instead, China has been witnessing a different kind of new semester because of the novel coronavirus outbreak. Many Chinese schools have suspended the new semester and moved the classrooms online, leading to an explosion of viewings on online educational platforms, On the first day of school, DingTalk, a virtual workplace developed by Alibaba Group, held online classes for an estimated 50 million students nationwide, from primary to high school level. The huge demand led many to assume that online classrooms are the source of future prosperity. But according to a guideline issued by the Ministry of Education on Feb 12, “postponement of school without suspension of learning” is not equal to learning through online courses. As the education authorities have said, it is unnecessary for every teacher to record online courses to be evaluated for quality. Also, kindergarten classes cannot be held online. (写作内容) 1.用约30个单词概述上述信息的主要内容; 2.用120个单词发表你的观点, 内容包括: (1) 网络直播课是否会取代传统课堂。 (2) 用2-3个理由或论据支撑你的观点。 (写作要求) 1. 阐述观点或提供论据时, 不能直接引用原文语句; 2. 作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称; 3. 不必写标题。 (评分标准) 内容完整, 语言规范, 语篇连贯, 词数适当。 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
