Technology has done our world wonders: from development in medicine travel, communication, to our day-to-day lives. It has undoubtedly changed the way our society works, and how we communicate with one another and ourselves. However, by completely welcoming technology as a part of everyday life, are we losing our ability to create
Technology presents a new platform for creativity to exist(存在)on. Through technology, ideas can be set free and come to life in the physical world. We have the necessary tools for greater possibilities and new solutions. For example, businesses now have the opportunity to improve themselves more creatively through websites, film advertisements,social media or radio.
However, when we look more closely, it’s easy to notice some disadvantages. For example, many of us depend so heavily on automated calculations(自动计算)nowadays, rather than taking the time to work it out for ourselves. Another obvious situation is that a lot of people are spending too much time on screens. As a result, they are reducing the opportunities to come up with their own creations.
Is there a way to find a balance between technology and human creativity I think so. It is simply a matter of making sure that creativity is not deterred by technology. The first way is to reduce our usage of digital devices(数字设备)by setting limits on when, where, and how long we use them,turning off the notifications(通知)on your phone, or putting your phone on “Do Not Disturb”. Once you become used to these, you will feel surprised how little you think about your phone.
Another wonderful way is to take daily walks in the nature. It can help you reset, rebalance, and keep going. In the long run, a daily walk can not only influence our creativity and imagination but further our physical and mental(思想的)health. We can also develop our creativity by doing yoga, keeping a journal, or reading.
The key to the survival(生存)of our creativity starts with us. Will you put your phone away when spending time with friends Will you try to find happiness and purpose outside of a screen The actions you choose to take will help change the relationship between creativity and technology for the better.
27. Why does the writer talk about businesses in Paragraph 2
A. To stress the importance of creativity.
B. To suggest good ways to develop technology.
C. To show the effect that technology has on creativity.
D. To explain the relationship between business and creativity.
28. The word “deterred”in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”.
A. examined B. controlled C. replaced D. prevented
29. The writer probably agrees that ________.
A. limiting the usage of our phones can help us develop creativity
B. spending time on screens is the easiest way to keep people happy
C. turning off the notifications on the phone will make people worried
D. a daily walk does more good to physical health than to mental health
30. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A. Technology: How Does It Help Develop Creativity
B. Creativity in a World of Technology: Does It Exist
C. Technology and Creativity: Which Is More Important
D. Technology and Creativity: How Do They Influence Each Other

On March 2, 2022, world leaders at the 5th meeting of the United Nations Environment Assembly （UNEA）reached a historic agreement to solve the problems of plastic. They agreed that by 2024, they would create and sign a new treaty （条约）on plastics. The new treaty would create international laws that could help bring plastic waste under control.
Because plastic is useful for so many purposes, it has become a part of nearly all areas of our lives. It’s hard to look anywhere without things made of plastic. It’s reported that now 400 million tons of plastic is produced every year. By 2040, the number is expected to double. Although there’s a lot of talk about recycling, only 9% of all the plastic ever created has been recycled.
Almost all kinds of plastic are made from some kind of oil. It gives off dangerous gases（气体）when it’s produced and also when it’s burned or buried（掩埋）in the ground. Scientists say plastics are responsible for 4.5% of the world’s greenhouse gases.
Plastic doesn’t break down like natural materials, such as wood. Instead, it just breaks into smaller and smaller pieces, and finally tiny bits of plastic called microplastics. In recent years, microplastics have been found almost everywhere, from the North Pole to Antarctica, from the top of the Earth’s tallest mountain to the deepest point in the sea. They’ve even been found in the bodies of animals including humans.
The treaty is expected to cover the whole plastic “life cycle”, including making it, reusing it, recycling it, and getting rid of （处理）it. The treaty will also cover how to deal with microplastics in the oceans, on land, and in the things we eat. It is expected to lay out rules to get rid of single-use plastics as well.
Deciding on the specific rules and goals that will go in the treaty will probably be difficult. The treaty is likely to require all countries to take their own steps to meet the treaty’s goals, and offer poorer countries money to help them meet the goals.
31. How much plastic is produced every year now
400 million tons.
32. When does plastic give off dangerous gases
When it’s produced and also when it’s burned or buried in the ground.
33. What does plastic finally become when it breaks down
Microplastics.
34. What does the whole plastic “life cycle”include
It includes making it, reusing it, recycling it, and getting rid of it.
35. What do you think of the idea of creating the new treaty on plastics Why do you think so
I think it is necessary. Because the problems of plastic is very serious.

八 文段表达
My New Year’s Resolutions
Resolutions are promises to yourself. They may help to make you a better person and to make your life easier. (决定也许能帮助让你成为一个更好的人并且让你的生活更容易) .I’m going to make four resolutions.
The first resolution is about my personal improvement. Next year, or maybe sooner, I’m going take up a new hobby. I think singing is a great activity and this will also make my family happy because they love to listen to music and sing together. In order to do this, I am going to take singing lessons(为了做到这点，我打算去上演唱课) and practice singing whenever I can.
The second resolution is about improving my physical health. I want to be stronger and taller next year. First, I am going to build up my muscles by doing 50 push-ups 5 times a week and swimming 500 meters 3 times a week. Then I’m going to learn to play tennis by taking a 3-month course.
My third resolution has to do with improving my relationships with my family(与我改善家庭亲子关系有关). I feel bad to argue or fight with my parents. so I need to turn the situation. So I’m going to win their trust by being more vocal (通过直言不讳赢得他们的信任)about my feelings and ideas, and reasoning with them instead of being angry silently so that they can know that I’m growing up and I am responsible and have self-discipline. Of course, I am going to help with housework more often.
As to the last resolution, I am going to do better at school. To do this, I have to catch up with others in math(必须在数学上追赶他们) and English. So I’m going to study math harder by asking more questions and doing more exercises, and, I’m also going to set aside 20 minutes for English vocabulary learning every morning. I think as long as I can stick to my plan, I will make progress(只要我坚持计划，我一定能取得进步).
I hope by the end of next year, I will be a much better person.
