AStress is an inevitable part of a busy and modern life. Time and time again, we see people feeling overwhelmed because of stress. But after years of being dosed up by doctors and seeking solutions on the self-help shelves, can most common complaints be cured through your next holiday? The festival doctor will see you now.21. When celebrating the festival Just for Laughs, you will ________.A. have discussions on the meaning of lifeB. laugh to tears by watching comedy filmsC. empty your mind with meditation sessionsD. be thrilled and your depression will be removed22. If you are thinking too much about work, you can spend a few days at___________.A. Just for LaughsB. the Wanderlust FestivalC. How the Light Gets InD. Ireland's Matchmaking Festival23. According to the passage, we can learn that the festival doctor specializes in____________.A. offering a cure through the festival formB. treating people falling ill during festivalsC. celebrating the festivals with the patientsD. listening to people's complaints during festivalsBLast month I was lucky enough to have a chance to make a trip into space with my friend Li Yanping, an astronomer. We visited the moon in ourspaceship!Before we left, Li Yanping explained to me that the force of gravity would change three times on our journey and that the first change would be the most powerful. Then we were off. As the rocket rose into the air, we were pushed back into our seats because we were trying to escape the pull of the earth’s gravity. It was so hard that we could not say anything to each other. Gradually the weight lessened and I was able to talk to him. "Why is the spaceship not falling back to the earth? On the earth if I fall from a tree I will fall to the ground." I asked. "We are too far from the earth now to feel its pull, " he explained, "so we feel as if there is no gravity at all. When we get closer to the moon, we shall feel its gravity pulling us, but it will not be as strong a pull as the earth's. " I cheered up immediately and floated weightlessly around in our spaceship cabin watching the earth become smaller and the moon larger.When we got there, I wanted to explore immediately. "Come on," I said. "If you are right, my mass will be less than on the earth because the moon is smaller and I will be able to move more freely. I might even grow taller if I stay here long enough. I shall certainly weigh less!" I laughed and climbed down the steps from the spaceship. But when I tried to step forward, I found I was carried twice as far as on the earth and fell over. "Oh dear," I cried, "walking does need a bit of practice now that gravity has changed." After a while I got the hang of it and we began to enjoy ourselves.24. From the passage, we can learn that ______________.A. walking on the moon was very easyB. the writer was too frightened to speakC. the writer became taller and fatter on the moonD. the pull of gravity on Earth is stronger than that on the moon25. What is the best title of this passage?A. A Visit to the MoonB. The Pull of GravityC. The Science of the StarD. A Bridge to Space26. Where does this text probably come from?A. Science fiction.B. A science report.C. An advertisement.D. Children's Literature.CWe all know the hard work that filmmakers and actors put in to provide us with entertainment, but it seems that even regular moviegoers like us have a big impact on how a movie turns out too.For decades now, film studios have used so-called test screenings（试映）to get feedback from members of the public before a movie comes out.While test audience members are usually asked to fill in a questionnaire after a screening, telling the film studio what they liked and didn't like, media giant Disney has come up with a more high-tech solution. According to a paper published this summer by the company's researchers, Disney is measuring test audiences' reactions(反应) by using special cameras placed inside cinemas.Pairing the cameras with custom(定制的) software, the company can track what each audience member is feeling at any point in the movie, from anger to joy.This works by mapping 68 different points on each audience member's face. The cameras can see in the dark, and the software can figure out a person's mood based on the slightest of facial expressions.It is hoped that this new method will allow more detailed feedback from test audiences. Rather than relying on audience members to recall their feelings after the movie's over, it can accurately read their reactions in real-time.Test screenings are highly valued in the movie industry, and several well- known movies have been greatly altered following feedback. Viewers of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial(1982) would have left the cinema feeling a whole lot differently if it weren't for its test audience's feedback."In one cut of the film that was tested, E.T. died instead of going home in his spaceship. You won't be surprised to hear that the test audience in question didn't warm to this ending at all," wrote media website Den of Geek.But for those of us who are concerned about privacy, the cameras won't be installed in public cinemas.After all, unless you're part of a test audience, being in front of the camera is best left to the movie stars.27. What is the main advantage that the cameras have over questionnaires?A. They protect the audience's privacy better.B. They allow the audience to recall their feelings more easily.C. They are able to record the audience's mood accurately on the spot.D. They can help audience members adjust their mood with custom software.28. With the example of E.T. the extra-Terrestrial (1982),the author intends to___________.A. illustrate the significance of test screeningsB. emphasize the importance of altering a movieC. show what kind of endings are better received by viewersD. explain what kind of feedback could be accepted in test screenings29. What does the underlined word "alter" mean?A. preferB. changeC. predictD. adopt30.What is the author's attitude towards the cameras Disney researchers are using?A. PositiveB. IndifferentC. NegativeD.
