B【2021·全国高考乙卷】
When almost everyone has a mobile phone, why are more than half of Australian homes still paying for a
landline(座机)?
These days you’d be hard pressed to find anyone in Australia over the age of 15 who doesn’t own a mobile
phone. In fact plenty of younger kids have one in their pocket. Practically everyone can make and receive calls
anywhere, anytime.
Still, 55 percent of Australians have a landline phone at home and only just over a quarter (29%) rely only
on their smartphones according to a survey (调查). Of those Australians who still have a landline, a third
concede that it’s not really necessary and they’re keeping it as a security blanket — 19 percent say they never use it
while a further 13 percent keep it in case of emergencies. I think my home falls into that category.
More than half of Australian homes are still choosing to stick with their home phone. Age is naturally a
factor(因素)— only 58 percent of Generation Ys still use landlines now and then, compared to 84 percent of
Baby Boomers who’ve perhaps had the same home number for 50 years. Age isn’t the only factor; I’d say it’s also
to do with the makeup of your household.
Generation Xers with young families, like my wife and I, can still find it convenient to have a home phone
rather than providing a mobile phone for every family member. That said, to be honest the only people who ever
ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers parents, to the point where we play a game and guess who is calling
before we pick up the phone(using Caller ID would take the fun out of it).
How attached are you to your landline? How long until they go the way of gas street lamps and morning milk
deliveries?
24.What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about mobile phones?
A.Their target users. B.Their wide popularity.
C.Their major functions. D.Their complex design.
25.What does the underlined word “concede” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Admit. B.Argue.
1
C.Remember. D.Remark.
26.What can we say about Baby Boomers?
A.They like smartphone games. B.They enjoy guessing callers’ identity.
C.They keep using landline phones. D.They are attached to their family.
27.What can be inferred about the landline from the last paragraph?
A.It remains a family necessity.
B.It will fall out of use some day.
C.It may increase daily expenses.
D.It is as important as the gas light.

In recent years, the Yi Jin Jing exercise has gained great popularity among Chinese of all ages, thanks to Jin
Yong’s novels and the Shaolin Temple in Central China’s Henan province, which has promoted kung fu techniques,
including Yi Jin Jing, vigorously(蓬勃地) at home and abroad. There are more than 60 types of Yi Jin Jing
exercises spreading in contemporary China, differing in lengths, gestures and movements. Thousands of health and
fitness clubs in the country have been teaching classical techniques, Yi Jin Jing being the most favored course.
In ancient times, average people did the Yi Jin Jing exercise for health and longevity(长寿) , But kung fu
masters do it in different and more difficult ways, hoping to hugely improve their physical abilities. For
example,when it comes to breathing, a normal person, especially a beginner, would be advised to take a safe and
comfortable approach. But kung fu masters would use an opposite deep breathing technique when doing Yi Jin
Jing. They would breathe in deeply, then hold their breath while trying to lengthen certain muscles and tendons(筋),
and in the end they would relax and breathe out very slowly.
It is widely believed that Zong Heng, a monk in Ming Dynasty, invented the Yi Jin Jing qigong exercise while
he lived in a cave on Mt. Zining, where Zhangjiajing village is located.
In 2016,the Tiantai county people’s government in East China’s Zhejiang province officially declared
Pingqiao, a mountainous town, as “Yi Jin Jing Township”, with Zhangjiajing village at its center. At least 30,000
local residents in and around the “Yi Jin Jing Township” have learned to perform the so-called Zining YiJin Jing
qigong exercise. They put on massive performances for tourists. Yi Jin Jing training courses, coupled with hillside
camping, sightseeing, local foods, have brought great benefit to the previously poor county.
28.What do we know from the first paragraph?
A.Yi Jin Jing is mentioned in Jin Yong’s books.
2
B.Shaolin Temple is the origin of Yi Jin Jing.
C.Health and fitness clubs have many kung fu masters.
D.Yi Jin Jing is the most popular qigong exercise.
29.How does the author mainly develop the second paragraph?
A.By giving an example.
B.By following time order.
C.By listing the differences.
D.By analyzing cause and effect.
30.Which map shows the correct locations of the places?
A.B.
C.D.
31.What may be the best title for the text?
A.Yi Jin Jing, the Most Powerful Qigong Techniques.
B.The Origin of Yi Jin Jing.
C.Learn Yi Jin Jing, Be Superman.
D.Try Classic Qigong Exercise: Yi Jin Jing.

While traditional wisdom tells us that we should eagerly catch every opportunity that comes our way, playing
a little hard to get has its advantages. Studies have shown that opportunities are seen to be more valuable as they
become less available, according to Robert Cialdini, a leading expert on influence, who said “What the scarcity
principle says is that people are more attracted to rare opportunities.”
Appearing available can work against you, according to Jeremy Nicholson, a social psychologist. If you're
excited about a work opportunity, it indicates that you are in low demand.
