21、 All armed criminals must be treated as dangerous. They are usually nervous and unpredictable. Some may also be under the influence of drugs or alcohol. What should you do?
Above all, remain calm. Remaining calm can have two effects: It can reduce the chance of the criminal becoming disturbed and reduce the risk of violence. Tell yourself what to do, i.e. "be calm" rather than what not to do, i.e. "don't panic”. Some helpful phrases are: be brave; keep quiet; move naturally, and above all, remain calm.
Then, appear obedient. Speak only if you need to answer the criminal and always reply honestly. Keep your answers short, clear and positive, using simple words and phrases, e.g. "The safe is closed and locked. I only have the money in the cash drawer.”
Remain as far away from the criminal as possible. When asked to hand over the money, place it on the counter and take a step back. This will ensure you don't crowd the criminal and go into his or her comfort zone.
Keep your hands in sight at all times with the palms facing the criminal If you need to move your hands out of the criminal's sight, ask them for permission. Wait for their approval before moving them.
Turning side on to the criminal can make you look less threatening by making you look smaller. It also presents less of a target to the criminal to hit and allows you to protect yourself with your arm.
Alarms should only be raised when it is completely safe to do so.
Assist the police by noting the time of the robbery, the time the criminal left the scene and in which direction he went, the weapons used, a description of the criminal and any evidence at the scene.
Observe criminals in a suitable way. Avoid direct eye contact with the criminal look at the chin of the criminal and use your glance to obtain details. Record as much detail as you possibly can.

22、It’s natural for parents to praise their children, but offering this praise could actually backfire, according to New Science.
In the study, researchers at Michigan State University looked at 123 children who were about 7. The team assessed the children to determine whether they had a “growth mindset” (believing that you can work harder to get smarter), or a “fixed mindset” (believing that your intelligence is unable to change). They then asked the children to complete a fast-paced computer accuracy task while their brain activity was recorded.
Based on the data they collected, the researchers concluded that children with a growth mindset were much more likely to have a larger brain response after making a mistake, and in turn were more likely to improve their performance by paying closer attention to the task after making an error.
While previous research has shown that people with a fixed mindset didn’t want to admit they had made a mistake, this study found that children with a fixed mindset were able to- “bounce back” after making an error, but only if they gave their full attention to the mistakes. “The main implication(暗示) here is that we should pay close attention to our mistakes and use them as opportunities to learn.” study author Hans Schroder told Science Daily.
For parents, the lessons are clear-if a child hands you an A+ test, don’t say “You’re so smart!”
Instead, say “Wow, that studying really paid off!” or “You clearly mastered this material-way to go!” Note the effort, not the intelligence.
Second, focus on using errors to work together and learn. Many teachers and parents avoid addressing children’s mistakes, telling them “It’s OK. You’ll get it next time...”,without giving them the opportunity to figure out what went wrong. Dr. Schroder says, “Instead, it’s better to reassure(安慰) children that mistakes happen, and to pay attention and work to figure out where and how they made the mistakes.”
【1】How was the data collected during the research?
A．By counting children’s mistakes.
B．By recording children’s brain activity.
C．By asking children fast-paced questions.
D．By testing children’s intelligence.
【2】Who most probably belongs to the “growth mindset” group?
A．A boy who manages to correct every mistake by heart.
B．A girl who believes her mistakes are made by chance.
C．A boy who keeps an idea that he has a gift for studying.
D．A girl who thinks she can get A+ without any effort.
【3】How are paragraph 3 and paragraph 4 developed?
A．Giving examples.
B．Listing facts.
C．Making a comparison.
D．Using famous sayings.
【4】What should parents do with the child’s mistakes in Dr. Schroder’s opinion?
A．Parents should avoid talking with child about his mistakes.
B．Parents should discuss the mistakes with their child patiently.
C．Parents should ignore the mistakes and believe he will do better.
D．Parents should compare his mistakes with others’ and blame him.
23、As it turns out, comfort food, instead of comforting you, may actually be linked to your mental comfort but cause you to become depressed. One of the main reasons for eating junk food is stress eating, but now new research has also suggested it's harming your mental health too.
Junk food, fast food and so-called “healthy snack options” are all big business nowadays because they provide convenient options for people on the go. The decision when choosing a snack of going for what you want, over what you need, plays an important part in your overall mental health.
Researchers at Cardiff University believe that reaching for unhealthy snacks when the stress of time-sensitive commitments, such as work or study, limits your choices of snacks, won’t only destroy your fitness goals, but it can also negatively affect your mental health.
Scientists provided crisps, chocolate or a piece of fresh fruit to test subjects before measuring their effects on mental comfort. The results were amazing. Those snacking on crisps and chocolate showed greater symptoms(症状) of depression, anger and emotional disorders in only 10 days. The increase was an unbelievable 47% in depressive parts. The subjects that snacked on fruit experienced none of these symptoms. In fact, on the contrary, they became 32% less anxious.
While the researchers didn't point out exactly why the fruit group felt so much happier, the answer may lie in fruit’s ability to increase the brain’s production of serotonin, which is commonly known as a feel-good neurotransmitter(神经递质) that can help to bring about a happier state of mind and reduce anxiety.
The best results you can take away from the study is that when you’re hungry you should always be well prepared with healthy snacks that will not only fill you up but will also positively affect your mental health and keep you focused all day long.

C．French fries.
D．Chocolate.
【4】What can be the best title for the passage?
A．How to choose healthy food?
B．Are snacks harmful to health?

24、 Tokyo's newly completed National Stadium was formally opened at a ceremony attended by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and the famous architect Kengo Kuma. Costing around 157 billion yen （$1.4 billion）, the 68,000-seat stadium will host the opening and closing ceremonies at both the 2020 Olympics and Paralympics. It will also be used for soccer matches and various track-and-field events during the Games.
Kuma said his design features three tiers （层）of seats beneath a partially covered roof made from steel and wood. “With the 2020 Olympics, we wanted to create something that focuses public attention on the environment or the Earth at the time/' he told CNN in an interview in June. “So., we thought that the best material for this era would be wood/'
At Sunday's ceremony, Abe praised the design for achieving 'harmony with the surrounding environment and a Japanese character." But as recently as 2015, the new National Stadium could have looked dramatically different. A futuristic design by the late British-Iraqi architect Zaha Hadid had initially been selected, though Japan's Olympic organizers eventually gave up the plan because of enormous costs and fierce criticisms. Celebrated architect Arata Isozaki described Hadid's design as a "disgrace to future generations/'
The mission was then passed to 65-year-old Kuma. and he set about reimagining the project in his characteristically organic style. The architect said that his stadium design was partly inspired by Tokyo's Edo-period temples. "All over the world, architecture in the 20th century that uses concrete and steel feels cold and stiff I want to make it softer, kinder, warmer/' said Kuma, whose firm designed the stadium alongside architecture firm Azusa Sekkei. His final design features large roof eaves （屋檐）that encourage air to circulate, allowing breeze （微风）to enter the stadium during hot weather.
"We would like both athletes and audiences to enjoy the stadium, but we also thought of something we can contribute to the community," Kuma said, highlighting the pedestrianized areas he designed around the structure. The late switch of design meant that construction on the stadium did not begin until late 2016. As such, plans for the stadium to host matches in the recent Rugby World Cup were canceled.
【1】What can we learn about Tokyo's new National Stadium?
A.It cost about $157 billion in all
B.It uses wood as one of its leading materials.
C.It has several partially covered wooden roofs.
D.It will be used for all ball games during the Games.
【2】What's the author's purpose in mentioning Zaha Hadid in Paragraph 3?
A.To expose the beauty of the futuristic design.
B.To report Abe's great appreciation tor her design.
C.To show her contribution to Japanese architecture.
D.To explain why Kama's design was adopted later.
【3】Which of the following inspired Kuma's design of the new stadium?
A.Zaha Hadid's designs.
B.Ancient temples in Tokyo.
C.Arata Isozaki's masterpieces.
D.Architecture in the 20th century.
【4】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.The Rugby World Cup matches will be put off.
B.The National Stadium wasn't completed on time.
C.Kuma's design of the community was controversial
D.The construction of the stadium didn't begin until 2017.
