Amos Chapple is a reporter from New Zealand. In 2015, he traveled to Oymyakon to see what life was like there. The experience, he said, was \"unforgettable. \" \"saliva（唾液）would freeze into needles that would prick （扎）my lips. My hands would freeze to wild pain,\" he added. \"It's hard to take pictures. My camera would often get too cold to work properly.\"

Around 500 people now live in Oymyakon. Despite the extreme conditions, people ride bikes and

even go swimming, Fish markets are open. Frozen fish stand upright （笔直地）in boxes. Customers in heavy winter clothing walk by them.

It's impossible to grow crops in Oymyakon. The local diet is mostly meat-based. The meat is sometimes eaten frozen. The local people actually love cold food.

And the freezing weather doesn't prevent children from heading to the classroom. Usually, schools in Oymyakon won't close until temperatures drop below-46 degrees Celsius.

Good Handwriting: a Lost Art

I can't remember how to write a capital Zin cursive （草体）.The rest of my letters are kind of stiff （僵直的），too.

I am a member of Generation Y （年青一代）.And now there is a group coming after me—children

who text-message nearly as much as they talk. They feel even less need to improve their handwriting.

We are witnessing the death of handwriting, Many people are worried about this. They say it's caused by the fact that computers are used more widely. But experts （专家）say that's not the case. Technological developments are only part of the reason. Kids haven't learned to write neatly because no one has forced them to.

In the United States, schoolchildren learn print （ E|3屈。体）in kindergarten and cursive in third grade. But most of them don't master （掌握）either one. My cursive teacher Linda Garcia has now been teaching for 42 years. She says children are just as excited to learn cursive as ever.

However, once they leave her classroom, ifs a different story. She doesn't know any teachers in the upper grades who stress the importance of handwriting. She frequently sees her former （以 前的）students going back to sloppy letters.

Garcia points out that schools today are all teaching to the tests If something isn't on a test its viewed as unnecessary. Over the decades, daily handwriting lessons have been reduced from an average of 30 minutes to 15. Reading is tested. But handwriting isn't, so it's important, \"Garcia adds, \"In other words, schools don't care how a child holds his or pencil as long as he or she can read.

Handwriting is becoming a lost art, but is that really a bad thing? I am never worried about my handwriting. After all, we are living in the age of social networks. Most people write very little by hand. Perhaps this is the trade-off （取舍）.We have to give up artistry for efficiency （效率）. 56. We can learn from the article that the author. good at writing in cursive

C. only knows how to write in cursive

B. can only poorly write incursive D. has never leaned how to write in cursive

57. According to the author, when do American children learn cursive? A. When they are in kindergarten. B. When they are in Grade One. C. When they are in Grade Three. D. When they are in middle school.

58. We can learn from Linda Garcia's words that. A. most teachers are not good at writing in cursive B. handwriting will soon be tested in the United States C. few teachers pay enough attention to students' handwriting

D. today*s children are not very interested in learning cursive

59. The underlined word \"sloppy\" （in paragraph 4） is closest in meaning to\" A. natural

B. neat

C. small

D. untidy

60. What does the author think of the death of handwriting?

A It is great as schoolchildren can spend more time studying other subjects.

B. It is only a natural process as the world develops and we don't have to worry about it. C. It is very terrible and schools should take immediate action to stop it from happening.

D. It is terrible and we should think about the possible effects that new technologies have on society before using them widely.

I remember looking at my dad as an eight-year-old kid and saying, \"want to be Michael Jordan one day. \" Dad laughed a bit and then turned to me and said, 'Son, I love you, but you're probably not going to be Michael Jordan.\" Then my dad pointed to the man standing next to Jordan at the time, his agent （经仑己人）David Falk. My dad explained how Falk worked closely with players, and since then that's all I've ever wanted to do.

Years passed and I became a sports agent. My job is simply to help professional players find jobs. No two days are the same, which I find exciting, If it's in-season, I'm talking to players about how they are feeling and how they're performing from week to week. During the off-season, I try to make sure players* lives are managed, so they can focus on （专注于）improving on the field.

Not everyone can be a sports star, but it's more than possible to work on the business side of sports.

I always tell the students I meet to go out of their way to introduce themselves to people. Relationships are so important in this business, and they can take you a long way. 71. The writer went to Madison Square Garden to. 72. At first the writer wanted to be. 73. Who was David Falk?

It can be hard to know what newborn babies want. They can't talk, walk o 76 even point at what they*re thinking about. Yet babies begin to develop language skills long before they begin speaking. And, c 77 to adults, they develop these skills much more quickly. People have a hard time learning new languages as they grow older, but babies have the ability to learn any language e 78 . New research strategies （策略）have helped scientists to discover that babies begin life with the ability to learn any languages. By interacting （互动） with other people and by u 79 their excellent listening and observational skills, they quickly learn the languages they hear most often.

Because babies can't tell scientists what they're hearing, scientists have been using a different method to c 80 if they can tell one sound from another. In some e 81 for example, scientists play recordings of a sound, such as \"eee\" over and over on one side of a baby*s head. Then, they play another sound such as \"aaah,\" to the baby*s o 82 side. If the baby turns to the new sound, he will see a dancing toy—a p 83 that encourages him to respond to such changes. If he doesn't turn, that suggests that he doesn't hear the difference b 84 the sounds. The studies have shown that, by about six months of age, babies have been able to recognize all the s 85 that make up all the different languages in the world. 九、书面表达（本大题共15分）
