Although the first Fourth of July fireworks began more than 200 years ago in Philadelphia, the celebration never grows old. So whether you’re starting your family’s Fourth of July traditions or just looking for a new place to see great fireworks this Independence Day, check out our list of top places to catch magnificent fireworks displays.
Bristol, Rhode Island
Bristol is credited with having the oldest Fourth of July celebration in the country, with a 230-year history of patriotic festivities. The town’s first Independence Day celebration was held in the early 1800s, more than two centuries ago. The celebration features a concert series at Independence Park, a performance from the Drum Corps, a carnival and parade, and of course, a beautiful fireworks show over the Bristol Harbor.
New York City, New York
Macy’s annual show is the nation’s largest fireworks display with more than 40,000 fireworks and a 38-year record of extraordinary entertainment. You can view the fireworks from anywhere with open views of the sky above the East River. This fireworks show has become an American tradition, and even those who can’t make the trip out to New York City can tune into NBC at 8 p.m., July 4.
Gorham, New Hampshire
Gorham’s Fourth of July Spectacular is one of New Hampshire’s longest running Independence Day celebrations, with four days of exciting events. The fireworks show will begin after dark on July 4 in the skies over the carnival. But that’s not the end of the fun. Stick around for another day to see a classic car parade and get your fill of the carnival rides and even visit Concord enjoying the breathtaking scenery.

Minutes after the last movie ended yesterday at the Plaza Theater, employees were busy sweeping up popcorns and gathering coke cups. It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.
The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed proper. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.
Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete. He added that the theater’s location (位置) was also a reason. “This used to be the center of town,” he said. “Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”
Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were given up because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.
The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time. After 75 years the Plaza Theater has shown its last movie. The theater will be missed.
24. In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special
A. It made room for new equipment.
B. It signaled the closedown of the theater.
C. It was done with the help of the audience.
D. It marked the 75th anniversary of the theater.
25. Why was The Last Picture Show put on
A. It was an all-time classic.
B. It was about the history of the town.
C. The audience requested it.
D. The theater owner found it suitable.
26. What will probably happen to the building
A. It will be repaired.
B. It will be turned into a museum.
C. It will be knocked down.
D. It will be sold to the city government.
27. What can we infer about the audience
A. They are disappointed with Bradford.
B. They are sad to say goodbye to the old theater.
C. They are supportive of the city officials.
D. They are keen to have a shopping center.
C
Robots can be programmed to move a car and even perform some operations. However, when it comes to picking up something that they have not touched before, such as an egg, they often fail. Now, engineers have invented an artificial fingertip (指尖) which breaks that limitation. It enables machines to sense objects as a human fingertip does.
Engineers have been working hard to make robots flexible and sensitive. When researchers from a university began designing an artificial fingertip in 2009, they used human skin as a guide. Their first fingertip was about the size of a coke can. By 2018, 3D printing made it about the size of an adult's big toe, with the multi-layered structure like human skin.
The latest breakthrough is called TacTip. Scientists include artificial nerve networks into the fingertip, which enables a robot to quickly process what it's sensing and act accordingly like a real finger.
“A lot of our sense of touch is decided by our skin,” says professor Benjamin, leader of the research team. In our fingertips, nerve endings will deform when the skin touches an object and then sends the signals to the brain about what's happening. Similarly, the nerve networks of TacTip pick up and translate those signals into the fingertip's actions, telling robots to handle objects of all shapes and sizes without programming, according to Benjamin.
Some scientists doubt whether TacTip is only just skin-like. The signals from the artificial and human fingertips are not quite the same, as the signals in real skin are more intense. Other scientists think highly of this breakthrough. “At least it helps clarify how human touch works and is a necessary step to improve robotic touch,”says professor Smith, a material scientist.
28. Why does the writer mention“an egg”in Paragraph 1
A. To find a solution for engineers.
B. To show robots have limitations.
C. To tell how robots sense objects.
D. To explain why robots often fail.
29. Which of the following plays the most important role in the latest breakthrough
A. Artificial nerve networks.
B. 3D printing.
C. Multi-layered structure.
D Human skin.
30. What does the underlined word“deform” mean in Paragraph 4
A. Develop.
B. Stop working.
C. Decrease.
D. Change shapes.
31. Which is the best title for the text
A. TacTip Changes How Touch Works in Humans
B. Robots Have Become More Flexible and Sensitive
C. Artificial Fingertip Gives Robots Human-like Touch
D. Engineers Have Achieved a Breakthrough in 3D Printing
D
Feeling discouraged after a favorite show ends is common, and it even has an unofficial term: post-series depression (PSD). Rita Kottasz, a marketing professor at Kingston University, defines PSD as “a feeling of emptiness and upset when something you love finishes”. This applies to TV shows, books, or video games, creating a desire for more.
The concept of PSD gained popularity on social media and fan blogs in the mid-2010s, particularly during the Golden Age of TV. Kottasz prefers not to use the term PSD, instead calling it “consumer saudade”, a Portuguese word meaning nostalgic (懷舊的) longing. However, a journal editor convinced her to use PSD due to its established use outside of research.
Kottasz and her colleagues published a 15-item classification scale for PSD based on interviews with fans who felt sad after their favorite things mon emotions included frustration, disappointment, sadness, and emptiness. Some fans even felt that life was less complete or that they had lost “best friends”.
While PSD is often associated with TV shows, Kottasz is exploring its connection to other media, such as the abrupt break of K-pop band BTS (防彈少年團(tuán)) and novels like Harry Potter. Younger people are more affected than older ones, partially due to on-demand streaming and constant new content pushes from businesses like Netflix.
Contrary to popular belief, binge-watching does not seem to trigger PSD. Instead, long-term consumption may be a factor. Kottasz thinks watching a show over several seasons or reading novels across many years strengthens a person’s relationship to the characters. In her 2019 paper, she cites a Harry Potter devotee who started reading the series at age 9 and was “cruelly left behind’ after the final book and film released years later.
But it isn’t quite as simple as saying the end of a show or novel controls our emotional state. Brian Kong, a Chicago-based psychologist, is concerned that PSD might imply a causal relationship between low moods and a program’s end. Instead, he says that when viewers feel lasting negativity, TV consumption might be acting as an anesthetic(麻醉劑) for a deeper psychological issue, like how some people with anxiety or depression drink alcohol. Put another way, the low mood already existed, and watching the series only masked it.
32. Which of the following is a common reaetion among fans experiencing PSD
A. A fresh sense of purpose for life. B. A deep satisfaction after the show.
C. A great sense of loss of best friends. D. A strong desire for a new hobby
33. What does the underlined word “binge-watching” in Paragraph 5 mean
A. Reviewing every detail of a TV show day and night.
B. Watching some episodes of a TV show in one sitting.
C. Following the episodes of a TV show for a long duration.
D Reading a book series while watching the TV adaptation.
34. What does Brian Kong imply in the last paragraph
A. PSD covers up a deeper psychological issue.
B. Viewers with negativity like drinking alcoho.
C. TV consumption is the root cause of low moods
D. Watching TV series can address psychological issues.
35. What might the following paragraphs focus on
A. The solutions to post-series depression.
B. The marketing strategies of TV shows.
C The difference between PSD and nostalgla.
D. The impact of social media on fan emotions.

67. Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main points of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
Here’s Why Planning a Trip Can Help Your Mental Health
There’s some good news for globe-trotters (環(huán)球旅行者): According to researchers, looking ahead to your next adventure could benefit your mental health, even if you’re not sure when that adventure will be.
Some psychologists believe in the mental benefits of vacationing somewhere new. For example, travel can enhance empathy, attention, energy, and focus. Other research suggests that the act of adapting to foreign cultures may also facilitate creativity. But what about the act of planning a trip Can we get a mental health boost from travel before we even leave home
Planning and anticipating a trip can be almost as enjoyable as going on the trip itself, and there’s research to back it up. A 2014 Cornell University study delved (探索、探究) into how the anticipation of an experience (like a trip) can increase a person’s happiness substantially — much more so than the anticipation of buying material goods. An earlier study, published by the University of Surrey in 2002, found that people are at their happiest when they have a vacation planned.
Matthew Killingsworth, now a senior fellow at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, says trip-planning encourages an optimistic outlook. “As humans, we spend a lot of our mental lives living in the future,” says Killingsworth, whose work centers on understanding the nature and causes of human happiness. “Our future-mindedness can be a source of joy if we know good things are coming, and travel is an especially good thing to have to look forward to.”

66. The Impact of Music on Me
Good morning! My name is Li Hua. It’s an honour to be here and to share with you the story of how music has had an impact on my life.
When it comes to music, we have our own stories. As for me, music actually offered me enough power to overcome shortcomings. When failing in the middle exam, I felt so upset that I refused to communicate with my friends, even my parents. When I heard some inspiring songs, which gave me confidence, I gradually ignored the failure and spared no efforts to study hard. Finally, I made great progress in the final exam. From my experience, I hope that you can obtain the power which music offers to achieve your own dreams.
Thanks for your listening.
67. Planning a trip can improve our mental health. Besides the various benefits of travel, the mere act of planning a trip is also good for us. The planning process is enjoyable and increases happiness, which is supported by several studies. Matthew Killingsworth at the University of Pennsylvania points out that trip planning also encourages a positive perspective on the future. (60 words)
