As is known to all that we students have to fix our attention on our lessons, so we know few of society. A holiday is the best time and the best chance to make up that. Take a part-time job is a good form of social practice. Neither that we have learned in books nor in class can have the same important effect on us as what we have learned through personally practice. In social practice, we can surely make a rapid progress in both knowledge and practical ability. However, when we take part-time jobs, we may get paid more or less to help our families. Thus, I suggested we senior school students should take part-time jobs in our holiday, if possible.

【题目】 In 2010，my mother-in-law gave me her rather simple but graceful, antique “secretary desk.” The desk easily fit into the tiny room at the top of the stairs. I felt so secure, and confident when I sat down and began each writing session. Despite the desk’s appeal, its limited storage capacity meant that I often put file folders and books on the small floor space around me. After each writing session, I painstakingly gathered the tools of the trade and placed them on a nearby shelf until the next session.

A few years into my writing journey, we moved into a bigger home and I acquired my own office. My husband, Bill offered on more than one occasion to buy me a new desk for my office, but I ignored his offer.

One day, we stopped at the local office supply store. Bill found what he thought was the perfect desk for me. “ I want to buy this for you, sweetie. My writer needs a bigger desk.” He hugged me.

“Thanks, but I don’t want a bigger desk!” I said.

“Why don’t you want a bigger desk?” he said. “You must be afraid of something.”

“I’m not afraid of anything,” I said. “ Like I said, I really like my little desk. So don’t ask me again”.

He didn’t.

A few weeks later, while working in my new office, I looked around at the folders , books and papers lying all over my office floor but couldn’t find what needed to meet a contest deadline. My heart raced. I looked around my office. The room basically swallowed the tiny desk, making it look slightly out of place. Maybe I did need a bigger desk. Was Bill right? Was I afraid of something?

Unable to write, I pulled C.JoyBell C.’s book of poetry, All Things Dance Like Dragonflies, from the bookshelf. I flipped through its pages, and her words about faith jumped off the page into my heart. She talked about how she had trained herself to love the feeling of not knowing where she was going, and just trusting that as she opened up her wings and flew off in an unknown direction, things would work out.

At that moment, I recognized that a bigger desk symbolized bigger possibilities, stepping out in faith, and leaving my comfort zone.

【题目】Electronic heroes

As an internet influencer, there seems to be nothing special about Miquela Sousa. The 19-year-old lives in Los Angeles, US, posts pictures of herself sporting fashionable looks, and has just made her way into the March edition of Vogue magazine. But Miquela isn't real – she is a computer-generated character.

Her fans don't seem to mind – she has 855,000 followers on US social networking platform Instagram. And her first single Not Mine – yes, she 'sings' too – also reached No. 8 on music streaming (流媒体) platform Spotify last August.

It's kind of curious that in a time when authenticity (真实性) and 'being real' are valued more than ever, 'fake' celebrities like Miquela are appreciated and seen as icons (偶像).

Perhaps the reason for Miquela's popularity lies behind the fame of a similar star, Hatsune Miku. This 16-year-old animated singer from Japan has held singing concerts not only in her home country but also in the US and China.

Even though Hatsune's no more than a 3-D figure projected (投射) onto the stage, her fans are more than willing to pay to actually see her 'in person', because to them, she's better than human singers. 'She's rather more like a goddess: She has human parts, but she transcends (超越) human limitations. She's the great post-human pop star, ' wrote reporter James Verini on Wired magazine.

Critics may say that 3-D stars could never replace the authenticity of humans, but when it comes to being authentic, are humans really the best example of how to do it? Most of us edit our photos before posting them online, and we tend to create a fantasy that we're living a perfect life by letting people only see the brighter side of it.

'Miquela is no less real to me than any other internet stranger with whom I've interacted (互动), ' wrote reporter Leora Yashari on the website Nylon. “Her existence in itself represents a new breed (种类) of influencer – someone who is breaking the boundaries (界限) of what is real and what is fake. '

【1】Who is Miquela Sousa?

A.She's a life-like character with musical talents.

B.She's a new sports star with fashionable looks.

C.She's an experienced singer with thousands of fans.

D.She's an animated figure created by a Japanese company.

【2】Why did the author mention Hatsune Miku?

A.To show the similarities 3-D stars share.

B.To make a comparison with Miquela Sousa.

C.To explain why 3-D stars are well received.

D.To stress how 3-D stars go beyond human limitations.

【3】What can be concluded from the last two paragraphs?

A.3-D stars could match the authenticity of humans one day.

B.Animated celebrities are not as real as human celebrities.

C.Human celebrities have greater influence than animated ones.

D.3-D stars' public personalities may be just as authentic as humans'.
