No matter the time, these activities should be available to every student, and at Victory Pioneers International Schools (V.P.I.S it is encouraged that every student participate in at least one activity, educational and recreational.

The outbreak of the novel corona virus pneumonia (NCP has disrupted the lives and work of nearly every Chinese person. However, a new trend has been on the rise: many have turned themselves into livestreaming users orfollowers.
According to Questmobile, a professional big data intelligence services provider in China, the audience for Douyin, Kuaishou and other livestreaming platforms surged to 574 million during the Spring Festival holiday, up 35 percent from 2019.
Confined at home, away from their friends and loved ones, people turn to livestreaming to reach out to the world. For them livestreaming can help them share their lives and interest with a global audience, which will give them the sense of being “in the moment”. Even as viewers, they can also engage immediately with livestreamers by commenting and making suggestions.
“When I comment on the livestreaming videos, I’m not simply an audience member, but also an active part of the program. That gives me a sense of engagement,” an Internet user named Wang Hao told People’s Daily.
Livestreaming is not only for fun, but also a new tool for many businesses. Affected by the pandemic, many businesses had to stop their sales in physical stores. To meet their business goals and survive during these trying times, many chose to livestream to revive their businesses.
Joyoung, a leading maker of small kitchen appliances, is a good example. The company not only added a
number of broadcasts each day to advertise their products, but also shared the menus that were beneficial to health. “The responses to our livestreaming shows have been well beyond expectations,” Kang Li, who oversees the company’s livestreaming unit, told China daily. “It’s a natural opportunity to truly bond with our followers.”
Like it or not, livestreaming is likely to go mainstream in China for both entertainment and business. 8. What is the purpose of writing the second paragraph? A. To introduce some popular livestreaming platforms in China. B. To report data on the development of livestreaming in 2019.
C. To show that Chinese people spend too much time on livestreaming apps. D. To prove that livestreaming are becoming increasingly popular in China. 9. What does Wang Hao think of commenting on livestreaming? A. It is boring to make comments. B. It is the only way to share viewers’ lives. C. It makes people feel involved in the stream. D. It helps livestreamers improve themselves. 10. What do paragraphs 5&6 mainly talk about? A. Livestreaming replaced physical stores in many areas.
B. Many businesses turned to livestreaming platform for marketing. C. Livestreaming platforms faced challenges during the pandemic. D. Livestreaming platforms made changes to their services. 11. How does the author feel about thefuture of livestreaming A. Positive. B. Uncertain. C. Disappointed. D. Confused.

This past year, I've found myself returning again and again to lines of poetry by Emily Dickinson. Like many people, I've needed the curing effects of reading more than ever. As scientists and psychologists will tell you, books are good for the brain and their benefits are particularly vital now.
Books expand our world, providing an escape and offering novelty, surprise and excitement. They broaden our view and help us connect with others. Books can also distract us and help reduce ourmental chatter.When we hit the “flow state" of reading where we're fully lost in a book, our brain's mode network calms down. It's a network of brain that is active and gets absorbed in thinking and worrying endlessly when we are not doing
anything else.
There is so much noise in the world right now and the very act of reading is kind of meditation. You disconnect from the chaos around you.You reconnect with yourself when you are reading. And there's no more noise.
In 2020, the NPD Group recorded the best year of book sales since 2004. Yet even as people are buying more books,many are reporting they're having a harder time getting through them. It's difficult for your brain to focus on a book when it's constantly scanning for threats to keep you alive.Our fight-or-flight response has been consistently activated.
Sometimes I picture my brain as a cartoon brain with little arms and legs, fighting with a book I am holding and screaming: “Can't you see I'm busy!” Anxiety causes our brain to produce a flood of stress,which consumes our energy and makes it harder to concentrate.
Then one day in December sitting on my couch, I remembered how much I like to read"The House of Mirth" every few years around the holidays. The memory inspired me to pick up the familiar book, opened it up and started reading.I just kept going.The comfort and distraction and brain-opening experience gave me peace.So return to something familiar.
12. What does the underlined part “mental chatter” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Getting lost in a book. B. Non-stop inner anxiety. C. Chatting with the author. D. Powerful network of brain.
13. What do we know about reading according to the text? A. It can treat our headache. B. It can calm down the noisy people. C. It forces us to concentrate.on thinking. D. It makes us communicate with ourselves.
14. Why was it difficult for people to finish reading books in 2020? A. People bought too many books.
B. The books were too difficult to understand. C. People just wanted to escape from the threat. D. The life threat disturbed people's focus on books.

15. Why is the author's experience mentioned in the last paragraph? A. To rid people of concern for safety. B. To present an effective reading way. C. To wake up memories of an old book. D. To recommend the book he/she reads.

52.阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文,续写的词数应为150左右。
It was a cold December day. After saying goodbye to his neighbour, David, Tom set out for a run with his dog, Taz. As a professional athlete, Tom often went for training runs by himself and had done this particular route many times before, but that day something unusual happened to him.
About an hour later, Tom hit some black ice. He found himself slipping down the rock face, which became steeper陡峭的)and steeper until suddenly he was in free fall. He fell 60 feet into the canyon(峡谷), landing on grass and dry branches. If he'd missed them, there was, no way he would have survived. He could feel his legs, so he knew he wasn't paralyzed(瘫痪的)but he was in great pain. Taz had managed to find his way back to Tom, so Tom knew there must be a way out of the canyon, but he couldn't stand or even crawl(爬). He later learned that he had broken his right leg.
Tom shouted for help, and tried to pull himself forward. Every inch was an effort. It took him five hours to go a quarter of a mile. Eventually it got so dark that he couldn't see where he was going. He decided to stay next to a river which he could drink some water from. All he had on him were his jogging clothes, a water bottle, two boxes of medicine, a bar of chocolate, and a shower cap which adventure racers often wear to prevent heat loss.
At night, the temperature dropped below freezing. Tom couldn't go to sleep or he would die, so he stayed awake lifting his head a few inches over and over. Throughout the night, Taz curled up next to him and kept him company. The next morning, he couldn't move any more. He tried to stay positive. He was sure somebody would find he was missing or hear him screaming for help. But there was nobody around.

Paragraph 1:
As time went by, Tom felt himself growing weaker and he knew he must take action.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2:
About three hours later, Taz returned and Tom heard an engine in the distance.
