In it, Sawyers explained that she was feeling “some type of way” after her classmates had mean things to say after she wore her natural hair the day before. But she was determined not to let it bring her down, and wore it the same way the following day. “Dont allow anyone to steal your joy,” Promise said. “Dont give them that much power.”Daugherty says that Promise has been surrounded by that type of positivity her whole life. Shes always taught her daughter to “meet a negative with a positive”, even when somebody is trying to bring her down. And although this example seems like one of the more disheartening( 令人气馁的) ones that Promise has faced after starting at a new school, her video proved that she took her moms advice to heart.Now, nearly 2 million views later, people everywhere are responding to the video. “We had no idea the impact that it was going to make and the amount of messages,” Daugherty said. “Its made a huge impact behind the scenes that has blessed me personally.”Daugherty jokes that Promise doesnt understand how influential her words are. Instead, the 10-year-old is just excited about the millions of views.“I just tell her not to focus on the numbers,” Daugherty says. “Lets find a way we can be impactful behind this and make an influence and inspire people. Thats all we want.”24. What does the underlined word “afro” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. A hairstyle. B. A disability. C. An attitude. D.

But too often it seems to make things harder. This increase in complexity, often called feature creep, costs consumers time, but it also costs business money. Product returns in the U.S. cost a hundred billion dollars a year, and a recent study by Elke den Ouden, of Philips Electronics, found that at least half of returned products have nothing wrong with them. Consumers just couldnt figure out how to use them. Companies now know a great deal about problems of usability and consumer behavior, so why is it that feature creep proves unstoppable?In part, fieature creep is the product of the so-called internal-audience problem: the people who design and sell product are not the ones who buy and use them, and what engineers and marketers think is important is not necessarily whats best for consumers. The engineers tend not to notice when more options make a product less usable. And marketing and sales departments see each additional feature as a new selling point, and a new way to attract customers.You might think, then, that companies could avoid fieature creep by just paying attention to what customers really want. But thats where the trouble begins, because although consumers find overloaded gadgets（ 配件）unmanageable, they also find them attractive. It turns out that when we look at a new product in a store we tend to think that the more features there are, the better. It is only once we get the product home and try to use it that we realize the virtues of simplicity.It seems strange that we dont expect feature tiredness and thus avoid it. But, as numerous studies have shown, people are not, in general, good at predicting what will make them happy in the future. As a result, we will pay more for more features because we systematically overestimate how often well use them. We also overestimate our ability to figure out how a complicated product works.The fact that buyers want bells and whistles but users want something clear and simple creates an unusual problem for companies. A product that doesnt have enough features may fail to catch our eye in the store. But a product with too many features is likely to annoy consumers.28.What does the first paragraph mainly discuss?A.The benefits brought by the advanced technology.B.The recent study conducted by Elke den Ouden.C.The loss caused by the feature creep of technology.D.Many problems of usability known by the consumers.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了科技的“功能蔓延”是不可阻挡的，拒绝“功能蔓延”不是一件容易的事情。【答案】C【解析】主旨大意题。根据第一段内容，特别是“This increase in complexity, often called feature creep, costs consumers time, but it also costs business money.”可知，“功能蔓延”不但消耗消费者的时间，而且还消耗企业的资金，由此可知，本段主要讲的是技术的“功能蔓延”造成的损失，故C项正确。29.Which of the following is true according to the second paragraph?A.It is the audience problem that leads to feature creep.B.What matters to designers and marketers is not good for consumers.C.Feature creep brings blessings to the people in marketing and sales.D.The engineers will not pay attention to the quality of the product.【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“And marketing and sales departments see each additional feature as a new selling point, and a new way to attract customers.”可知，营销和销售人员把它看作一个新的卖点，一个吸引顾客的新方法，由此可知，“功能蔓延”给营销和销售人员带来福音，故C项正确。30.What do we know about the buyers in paragraph 4?A.They are deeply convinced that all the products work in simple way.B.They are fed up with the more and more features of the products.C.They are too confident of their ability to use the complicated products.D.They are quite clear about the products which will make them happy.【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。根据第四段中的“We also overestimate our ability to figure out how a complicated product works.”可知，购买者高估了自己理解复杂产品工作原理的能力，也就是说他们对自己使用复杂产品的能力过于自信，故C项正确。31.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Saying No to Feature Creep is No Easy ThingB.Feature-heavy Products in DemandC.The More Features, the BetterD.Simplicity Outweighs Complexity【答案】A【解析】主旨大意题。通读全文，特别是根据第一段中的“so why is it that feature creep proves unstoppable?”可知，本文从设计者和消费者的角度介绍了科技的“功能蔓延”是不可阻挡的，拒绝“功能蔓延”不是一件容易的事情，故A项正确。D Once March 29 was impressed firmly in the minds of British people, as this was the date when the UK was supposed to leave the European Union (EU).The UK public voted to leave the EU almost three years ago. Since then, the UK Parliament has voted many times to determine the terms of the UKs exit from the EU. But British lawmakers havent reached an agreement on any particular path. So the UK and EU member states agreed to push the Brexit (脱欧) deadline to April 12, hoping this would allow UK lawmakers to get a Brexit deal through the UK Parliament.On March 29, British lawmakers rejected UK Prime Minister Theresa Mays Brexit deal once again. According to USA Today, the failure to reach an agreement was largely because hard-line (强硬的) lawmakers from Conservative Party didnt feel the deal done with the EU adequately separates the UK from the EU. Meanwhile, many Labor Party lawmakers were in favor of closer ties with the EU. As result, the UK has to announce a new plan before April 12, or leave the EU without a deal, and the latter one will bring the UK and the EU countries many influences. For example, the UK would have to face the fact that the price of imported goods for British people could go up as a result. Meanwhile, there could be long delays at borders between the UK and the EU countries if passport checks are strengthened.In the event of a no-deal Brexit, the German government would give British citizens living in Germany an initial period of three months during which their rights to live and work there would not change. However, they would have to apply for the permits of living in Germany during that period. The French Parliament has passed a law to give the government the power to introduce new measures to deal with a no-deal Brexit. The law covers, among other things, the rights of UK national a living and working in France.More efforts to prevent a disorderly Brexit are still needed, but time is limited!32. Why did the UK and EU member states push the Brexit deadline to April 12?A. To wait for a new Brexit deal.B. To make a no-deal Brexit plan.C. To meet Theresa
