A
Every April I am trubled by the same cncern -- that spring might nt ccur this year. The landscape lks dull, with hills, sky and frest appearing gray. My spirits ebb, as they did during an April snwfall when I first came t Maine 15 years ag. "Just wait," a neighbr advised. "Yu’ll wake up ne mrning and spring will just be here."
And lk, n May 3 that year I awke t a green s amazing as t be almst electric, as if spring were simply a matter f flipping a switch. Hills, sky and frest revealed their purples, blues and green. Leaves had unflded and daffdils were fighting their way heavenward.
Then there was the ld apple tree. It sits n an undevelped lt in my neighbrhd. It belngs t n ne and therefre t everyne. The tree’s dark twisted branches stretch ut in unpruned（未经修剪的） abandn. Each spring it blssms s freely that the air becmes filled with the scent f apple.
Until last year, I thught I was the nly ne aware f this tree. And then ne day, in a bit f spring madness, I set ut with pruner t remve a few disrderly branches. N sner had I arrived under the tree than neighbrs pened their windws and stepped nt their prches(门廊). These were peple I barely knew and seldm spke t, but it was as if I had cme uninvited int their persnal gardens.
My mbile-hme neighbr was the first t speak. "Yu’re nt cutting it dwn, are yu?" she asked anxiusly. Anther neighbr frwned as I cut ff a branch. "Dn’t kill it, nw," he warned. Sn half the neighbrhd had jined me under the apple tree. It struck me that I had lived there fr five years and nly nw was learning these peple’s names, what they did fr a living and hw they passed the winter. It was as if the ld apple tree was gathering us under its branches fr the purpse f bth acquaintanceship and shared wnder. I culdn’t help recalling Rbert Frst’s wrds:
The trees that have it in their pent-up buds T darken nature and be summer wds One thaw led t anther. Just the ther day I saw ne f my neighbrs at the lcal stre. He remarked hw this recent winter had been especially lng and cmplained f nt having seen r spken at length t anyne in ur neighbrhd. And then, he lked at me and said, "We need t prune that apple tree again."
46. By saying that “my spirits ebb” (Para. 1), the authr means that _____.
A. he feels relievedB. he feels blue
C. he is surprisedD. he is tired
47. The apple tree mentined in the passage is mst likely t _____.
A. be regarded as a delight in the neighbrhd
B. have been abandned by its riginal wner
C. have been neglected by everyne in the cmmunity
D. be appealing nly t the authr
48. Accrding t Para. 4, why did the neighbrs pen their windws and step nt their prches?
A. They were surprised that smene unknwn was pruning the tree.
B. They wanted t prevent the authr frm pruning the tree
C. They were cncerned abut the safety f the tree
D. They wanted t get t knw the authr
49. It can be inferred that the authr’s neighbr mentined in the last paragraph mst cared abut _____.
A. when spring wuld arriveB. hw t pass the lng winter
C. the neighbrhd gatheringD. the pruning f the apple tree

As we traveled arund the U.S. reprting n the develpment f twns and cities, we always made the lcal library an early stp. The traditinal impressin f libraries as places fr quiet reading, research, and brrwing bks is utdated. There are three areas where libraries wrk as energetic centers f America’s twns: technlgy, educatin, and cmmunity.
Technlgy
Many peple rely n libraries fr their cmputer and Internet use. Accrding t a 2015 Pew Research Center reprt, mre than a quarter f Americans wh had visited a public library in the past year had used a cmputer, the Internet, r a WiFi cnnectin there.
Mre ambitiusly, libraries have als begun ffering “makerspaces” shared wrkspaces that prvide technlgical tls and are designed t facilitate teamwrk. I recently tured the makerspace at Washingtn, D.C.’s flagship Martin Luther King Jr. Library. A grup f hbbyists, businesspeple, and a mm with her hmeschled preteens were learning abut tls like 3-D printers, laser cutters, and wire benders. Miguel Figuera, wh directs the Center fr the Future f Libraries at the American Library Assciatin, says makerspaces are part f libraries’ expanded missin t be places where peple can nt nly cnsume knwledge, but create new knwledge.
Educatin
In my cnversatins with librarians arund the cuntry, the mst urgent tpic was the educatin f America’s yungest children. Patrick Lsinski, the CEO f the Clumbus, Ohi, metrplitan library system, tld me that when a 5-year-ld walks int kindergarten, takes a bk, and hlds it upside dwn, “yu knw there is n reading readiness there.” I heard f many prjects like Bks fr Babies, which is run by Friends f the Library in tiny Winters, Califrnia: Vlunteers ffer new babies a bx with a T-shirt, a cap, tw bks, and an applicatin t jin the library.
In Charlestn, West Virginia, despite recent funding lsses that severely cut library staff, librarians still prvide materials t teachers all acrss the 900-square-mile cunty. In Clumbus, Mississippi, the library gives high-schl students access t Civic War-era dcuments slave sale recrds, curt cases, and secrets f the cmmunity making real the histry f their state.
Cmmunity
The library in West Hartfrd, Cnnecticut, ffers cnversatinal-English classes fr immigrants. The library in Seattle prvides citizenship classes. The library in Duluth, Minnesta, has a seed-lending prgram fr lcal gardeners. In libraries, I have practiced yga, drunk in cffee shps, and watched yungsters with laptps arrangetheir virtual start-up ffices at lng reading-rm tables.
50. What is the passage mainly abut?
A. Hw libraries are designed.B. Hw libraries have develped.
C. Hw libraries functin in new ways.D. Hw libraries becme a ppular spt.
51. Accrding t the passage, what can peple d in libraries nw?
A. Make T-shirts.B. Wrk tgether.
C. Visit exhibitins.D. Publish bks.
52. What can be learned abut libraries in Clumbus?
A. They run shrt f funds.B. They help children learn histry.
C. They prvide children with 3-D printers.D. They ffer readers sprts facilities.

A mdern masterpiece frm ne f Italy’s mst acclaimed authrs, My Brilliant Friend is a rich, intense, and generus-hearted stry abut tw friends, Elena and Lila. Elena Ferrante’s unique style lends itself perfectly t a detailed prtrait f these tw wmen that is als the stry f a natin and a tuching thinking n the nature f friendship. The stry begins in the 1950s, in a pr but exciting neighbrhd n the utskirts f Naples. Grwing up n these tugh streets the tw girls learn t rely n each ther ahead f anyne r anything else. As they grw, as their paths repeatedly split apart and meet again, Elena and Lila remain best friends whse respective destinies are reflected in the ther. They are likewise the mirrr f a natin underging mmentus change.
Ferrante is the authr f three previus wrks f critically acclaimed fictin: The Days f Abandnment, Trubling Lve, and The Lst Daughter. With this nvel, the first in a quartet, she prves herself t be ne f Italy’s great strytellers. She has given her readers a masterfully pltted page-turner, abundant and generus in its narrative details and characterizatins, that is als a stylish wrk f literary fictin destined t delight her many fans and win new readers t her fictin.
As “Ferrante Fever” swept the English-speaking literary wrld, yu might have mistaken it fr a phenmenn exclusive t wmen readers. Elena Ferrante’s fur Neaplitan Nvels, translated frm the Italian, arrived n ur shres in cvers f light pinks and blues, with intrductin that prmised a fascinating narratin f female friendship, ideally marketed fr mms and their daughters alike. S well-received was this fcus n the sisterhd f the bks-perhaps because we ften limit wmen t writing abut “wmen’s issues” — that the series’ histrical sweep, its intense criticism f capitalism and its cruel vilence, did nt always get their due.
This is likely t change as the Ferrante craze reaches its natural peak: an acclaimed HBO series that desn’t steer away frm her scialist themes. N dubt quite a few men are n the bandwagn already. While they are indeed thrilled by the scietal scpe f Ferrante’s narrative, they are als learning smething abut the vitality f feminine clseness and identity.
53. In My Brilliant Friend, Elena and Lila ________.
A. represent the cuntry’s spiritB. are interdependent n each ther
C. stay tgether thrughut their lifeD. are cming frm different backgrund
54. The writing fcus n girls’ relatinship may vershadw the descriptin f ________.
A. mtherhdB. capitalistic cruelty
C. male friendshipD. dmestic vilence
55 What is likely t change as the Ferrante craze intensifies?
A. That the bk switches t scialist theme.
B That the readership is mainly limited t wmen.
C. Peple’s view twards girls’ clseness and identity.
D. That the bandwagns are increasingly ppular amng bys.
56. What can be inferred frm this article?
A. The bk cmes with a bk turning device t help reading easily.
B. HBO changed the bk’s theme in the adaptatin f the screenplay.
C. Elena Ferrante’s quartet gain wide appeal bth in wmen and in men.
D. The character Elena in the bk is a self-prtrait f the authr Elena Ferrante.

Hw gd are yu at maths? Sme peple lve the challenge f algebra r enjy wrking ut number puzzles such as Sudk. Maths is all arund us, frm wrking ut hw t split the bill after a meal, t calculating yur husehld bills. _____57_____ It can seem daunting, but this ‘maths anxiety’ is perfectly nrmal, and yu’re definitely nt alne. And anyway, ur wrries and fears dn’t necessarily reflect ur ability. _____58_____ Research has fund that maths teachers wh are nervus abut teaching the subject can pass n their anxiety t the pupils, and girls may be mre likely t be affected.

Writing fr BBC Future David Rbsn says “It’s nt clear why maths aruses s much fear cmpared t gegraphy. But the fact that there’s a right r wrng answer — there’s n rm fr bluffing (吓唬) — might make yu mre wrried abut underperfrming. _____60_____ Psychlgists have been trying t wrk ut why mental arithmetic can bring us ut in a sweat. That seed f fear may cme frm many surces, but sme suggest that expressing yur fears can lsen their hld n yu, and encurage children t see a maths test as a challenge, nt a threat. Ideally, we need t think psitively abut maths and give it a secnd chance.
A. The prblem really starts in childhd, at schl.
