Zhou was the youngest but she got the second place in the event.
In the eyes of Zhou, what she gets is because of her confidence(信心) and love for snowboarding.

We just need to think about what we can do with it,” she said.

This is just the start for the young star. She wants to get the first place for her country. “I love my own country and I know how great it is. I'm a really happy that I can fight for it. My dream is to travel around the world with my snowboard and meet all the great people,” said Zhou.

“Am I an ‘I’ person or an ‘E’ person ” It is a popular topic among young people around China today. Many people are crazy about it so that they take a personality test named Myers-Briggs test to find out the answer.
Many people find the MBTI(Myers-Briggs Test Indicator) useful. It groups people into 16 types, which start with the letter “T” or “E”, such as “ENTJ, INFP” or more. “E” is short for “Extroversion” while “T” is for “Introversion”. “I'm an ‘E’ person. I should go to the party and make more friends.” “I'm an ‘E’ person, I'd like to work by myself. I could be a writer In the future.” They believe different types can help them make decisions for activities, jobs or even life choices more quickly.
But there are also problems. Some people take the test for a second time and get different results. Some people find it hard to answer some questions. “like watching TV by myself. But I also enjoy playing with friends. Am I an I' or an ‘E’ ”
When you take a personality test,-you may think, “Oh, that's me.” That's because the descriptions(描述) are generic. They can be used to describe many people. Research has found that over 50 percent of people get a different score when they retook the MBTl just five weeks later. Personalities can change with time, and they are not black-or-white, scientists say. You maybe introverted now but become extroverted when you get older. Or, you can be both an “T” and an “E”. Don't label yourself! Studies have also shown that the test is not real at telling people's success in different jobs. So, don't take it too seriously.
23. MBTI is a test_________.
A. without a hot topic B. with the same answer C. about young people in China D. for your personality type.
24. If you are an “E”person, you may_________.
A. like to read books in the library on vacation. B. like to cook simple meals at home on weekends.
C. like to watch movies with a pet dog on Friday night. D. like to have fun in different festivals with different people
25. What does the underlined word“generic”in the last paragraph probably mean
A. Common. B. Special. C. Clear. D. Simple.
26. Why does the writer write the passage
A. To tell what MBTI is B. To tell if MBTI is useful.
C. To teach people how to use MBTI. D. To tell how many personality types people have.
D
Travel can make us feel better, New places bring excitement and it turns out that there is a science behind-- “dopamine(多巴胺)and serotonin(血清素)”. Travel experts believe that dopamine and serotonin levels go up when we travel.
Dopamine is one of the key chemicals. It can make us feel happy. When we join in activities that we enjoy, our brains will release(释放) it and it'll give us a sense of joy and satisfaction. Serotonin is another key chemical. It is important to our mood, sleep, and diet. Our serotonin levels will fall when we get less daylight in winter. In short, the more dopamine and serotonin we have, the happier we will feel.
Here's how it actually makes us happier:
Vitamin D can be boosted(增强)
As we know, vitamin D is naturally made by the skin when we're in the sun. When vitamin D boosts from sunlight, it will help the production of serotonin, improve our sleep quality, and even cut down our stress(压力).
Negative ions are____▲____
Negative ions are most found in fresh air, especially near bodies of water like oceans and waterfalls, and in forests. They help to grow serotonin levels and energy levels, boost immune systems, and lower stress levels. If we spent time on the beach, listening to the sound of the sea and feeling our stress washed away, that might be thanks to the negative ions.
Traveling makes you social
Social interaction(社交)also helps the release of both dopamine and serotonin. If we try group trip, the new experiences and activities will also boost our dopamine and serotonin levels.
Close to wildlife
The beauty of nature can have a calming effect on the mind and body, and spending time in nature has been shown to lower stress levels and promote relaxation. Watching the wonders 'of nature and seeing animals in their natural habitat can boost dopamine and serotonin levels. And physical activities like walking and hiking also have a mood-boosting effect.
27. What's the purpose(目的)of Paragraph 2
A. To tell the importance of the topic. D. To ask some questions about the topic.
C. To give some knowledge about the topic D. To show the result of discussing the topic.
28. Which of the following words can be put in“____▲____”
A. serious B. helpful C. enjoyable D. interesting
29. According to the passage, which of the following sentences is NOT true
A. A campfire party often makes you feel down. B. Walking on the beach is a good way to lower stress.
C. The more sunlight you get, the better sleep you may have.
D. Going bird watching in forests can make you feel relaxed.
30. What does the passage mainly talk about
