A nurse has fulfilled (实现) a promise she made to her patient four years ago to one day attend her daughter's graduation from nursing school.
Edina Habibovic, 22, graduated from Chamberlain University's College of Nursing in 2020. Her mother, Sevala Habibovic, 46, died in 2017 after a two year fight with breast cancer.
“I thought the medical field wasn't for me. Then, my mom got sick and I had all the experience going in and out of the hospital, ” Edina told Good Morning America. “When my mom passed away, I thought, ‘I want to do this.’”she said.
Sanja Josipovic, who at the time worked as a home health nurse with Northwestern Medicine in Winfield, Illinois, cared for Sevala inside her home. They often chatted and shared the latest news with each other over six months of care.
“She was most worried about Edina because she was young and hadn't finished school yet, ” Sanja said. “We are like sisters; we care about and trust each other. She was a powerful and strong minded woman. She wasn't scared to die; she was just worried about her kids and husband.”
Edina said her mother lived for being with her family and taking care of people. “When Sanja was working, my mom would still try to make her something to eat, no matter how sick she was, ” Edina added. When Sevala's life was coming to an end, she asked Sanja to take her place at her youngest daughter's nursing school graduation. “That was the only thing she was going to miss. Edina's graduation, ” said Sanja, who is a mother of three herself. She agreed.
Due to COVID - 19, there was no graduation or pinning ceremony. Edina's manager at Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital decided to host a pinning ceremony for her and have Sanja present the pin. “Sanja has fulfilled her promise, ” Edina said.
Edina and Sanja are now caring for patients alongside one another as colleagues at Marianjoy.

C
When a United Kingdom supermarket chain promised to move its farms to Net Zero by 2030, it made it clear that the effort would require working on many different fronts. From energy consumption and land - use change to methane emissions (甲烷排放), cattle farming comes with environmental challenges. So even if recent studies suggesting it's possible to cut methane emissions 80% do turn out to be accurate, there's still a very long way to go for most cattle farming to get anywhere close to truly net zero.
Organic Valley, when producing milk, might be closer to that goal. It made headlines in 2019 by going 100% renewable (可再生的). Now the company is expanding on that tradition by starting a major loan initiative (贷款计划) to help its farm suppliers adopt renewable energy too.
Created with Clean Energy Credit Union, the $ 1 million loan fund will deliver loans at below - market rates. Specifically, the money will be made available to Organic Valley's 1, 700 farmer members, and can be used for a variety of projects.
“We are focused on a whole systems approach to renewable energy, and I'm excited to launch this energy loan fund. From the farm to the shelf, I see renewable energy playing a bigger role in organic food,” said Bob Kirchoff, Organic Valley CEO.
“Organic Valley is already helping to protect the environment through organic farming practices, and now they re going one step further by supporting the introduction of renewable energy projects for their farmer members,” said Blake Jones, volunteer board chair of Clean Energy Credit Union. “In addition to the environmental benefits, we re eager to help family farmers throughout the world to lower their energy costs.”
The world is not short of examples of farmers innovating in the field of renewable energy. What's encouraging about Organic Valley's announcement is the idea of a national brand putting its marketing and financing weight behind such efforts and, hopefully, creating consumer demand that pushes the rest of the industry in this direction too.
8. What does paragraph 1 indicate about going net zero for cattle farming
A It is not easy to achieve B. It is common in the UK
C. It is an impractical goal D. It meets no challenges
9. What is Organic Valley's tradition according to the text
A. Helping farm suppliers B. Using renewable energy
C. Having a loan initiative D. Making headlines annually
10. What is Organic Valley's initiative mainly intended to do
A. Reform organic farming practices B. Make use of environmental benefits
C. Help farmers decrease energy costs D. Shrink the group of farmer members
11. What is the author's attitude towards Organic Valley's initiative
A. Worried B. Doubtful C. Ambiguous D. Positive
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Organic Valley公司使用可再生能源不仅对环境有好处，而且该公司还致力于帮助世界各地的农民降低能源成本。
【详解】1.细节理解题。根据文中第一段最后一句话“So even if recent studies suggesting it's possible to cut methane emissions 80% do turn out to be accurate, there's still a very long way to go for most cattle farming to get anywhere close to truly net zero.”(因此即使最近的研究表明减少80%的甲烷排放量是可能的，这项研究结果证明确实是准确的，但是对于养牛业来说，要达到真正净零排放还有很长的路要走。)可知，第一段表明对于养牛业来说，达到净零排放是不容易实现的，故选A。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段第二、三句话“It made headlines in 2019 by going 100% renewable (可再生的). Now the company is expanding on that tradition by starting a major loan initiative (贷款计划) to help its farm suppliers adopt renewable energy too.”(2019年，该公司因采取100%可再生能源而成了头条新闻。现在，该公司正在拓展这一传统，开始一项重大的贷款计划，帮助农场供应商也采用可再生能源。)可知，Organic Valley的传统是使用可再生能源，故选B。
3.细节理解题。根据第五段最后一句话“In addition to the environmental benefits, we re eager to help family farmers throughout the world to lower their energy costs.”(除了环境好处之外，我们乐意帮助全世界的农民降能源成本。)可知，Organic Valley的计划主要是要帮助农民降低能源成本，故选C。
4.观点态度题。根据最后一段“The world is not short of examples of farmers innovating in the field of renewable energy. What's encouraging about Organic Valley's announcement is the idea of a national brand putting its marketing and financing weight behind such efforts and, hopefully, creating consumer demand that pushes the rest of the industry in this direction too.”(世界上不乏农民在可再生能源领域创新的例子。令人鼓舞的是，Organic Valley宣布成立一个全国性品牌，将其营销和融资重心放在这些努力的背后，并有望创造消费者需求，推动该行业的其他部分也朝着这个方向发展。)可知作者对于Organic Valley公司的计划的态度是积极的，故选D。
D
Although computer technology is often necessary today, using a pen or pencil activates more areas of your brain than a keyboard does. You can potentially remember more by handwriting, according to a new study.
The potential benefits of handwriting for memory have been debated for some time. The new study set out to answer one question: How does handwriting compare to using a keyboard when it comes to remembering new information
In all,24 participants took part. Researchers asked each of them to write with a pen and then each was also asked to type on a keyboard. While performing these tasks, each volunteer wore a cap that held electrodes next to their head. It looked somewhat like a hair net fitted with 256 sensors. Those sensors recorded the participants' brainwaves. The electrodes noted which parts of the brain turned on during each task. And they showed that writing turned on memory areas in the brain while typing didn't.
Audrey van der Meer, the new study's leader, says this suggests that when we write by hand, we remember better. “This is because writing involves complex movements that activate more areas of the brain. The increased brain activity gives the brain more ‘hooks’ to hang your memories on,” she explains. Van der Meer also points out that writing by hand is related to visual notetaking. “Rather than typing blindly, the visual notetaker has to think about what is important to write down. Then, key words can be interlinked by boxes, arrows and small drawings,” she adds.
This study does not recommend banning digital devices. In fact, its authors point out, computers and other devices with keyboards have become necessary in modern society. Keyboarding can especially benefit those with certain special needs (such as if they have trouble using their hands) and typing beats writing when it comes to speed, they add.
12. Why were participants asked to wear caps in the study
A. To record their brainwaves B. To inform them of their tasks
C. To allow them to focus on writing D. To protect their heads like hair nets
13. What does Audrey van der Meer try to explain
A. Why handwriting is more complex than typing B. Why the brain works when it comes to learning
C. Why handwriting helps remember information D. Why key words are helpful to visual notetaking
14. What is the study's authors' view on typing
A. It relieves people's hands B. It remains vital and helpful
C. It is not worth recommending D. It is more challenging than writing
15. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A. How Can You Remember New Information
B. Handwriting Benefits Health in the Long Run
C. Should Typing Take the Place of Handwriting
D. Handwriting Is Better for Memory Than Typing
【答案】12. A 13. A 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了一项新研究表明，手写更有利于记忆，介绍了研究开展的经过，研究的负责人还解释了为什么手写比打字复杂以及研究的作者对使用键盘的看法。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“While performing these tasks, each volunteer wore a cap that held electrodes next to their head. It looked somewhat like a hair net fitted with 256 sensors. Those sensors recorded the participants' brainwaves.(在执行这些任务时，每个志愿者都戴着一顶帽子，把电极放在他们的头旁边。它看起来有点像一个装有256个传感器的发网。这些传感器记录了参与者的脑电波)”可知，参与者被要求在研究中戴帽子是为了记录他们的脑波。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Audrey van der Meer, the new study's leader, says this suggests that when we write by hand, we remember better. “This is because writing involves complex movements that activate more areas of the brain. The increased brain activity gives the brain more ‘hooks’ to hang your memories on,” she explains.( 这项新研究的负责人Audrey van der Meer表示，这表明当我们手写时，我们的记忆力更好。这是因为写作涉及复杂的动作，会激活大脑的更多区域。大脑活动的增加给了大脑更多的‘钩子’来挂住你的记忆，”她解释道)”可知，Audrey van der Meer试图解释为什么手写比打字复杂。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“In fact, its authors point out, computers and other devices with keyboards have become necessary in modern society. Keyboarding can especially benefit those with certain special needs (such as if they have trouble using their hands) and typing beats writing when it comes to speed, they add.(事实上，它的作者指出，电脑和其他有键盘的设备在现代社会已经成为必需品。他们补充说，键盘尤其有利于那些有特殊需要的人（比如他们使用手有困难的人），而且在速度方面，打字比书写要好)”可知，该研究的作者认为打字仍然是至关重要和有益的。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据的主要内容，尤其第一段的“Although computer technology is often necessary today, using a pen or pencil activates more areas of your brain than a keyboard does. You can potentially remember more by handwriting, according to a new study. (虽然电脑技术在今天是必不可少的，但使用钢笔或铅笔比键盘激活更多的大脑区域。一项新的研究表明，手写可能会让你记住更多)”可知，文章主要说明了一项新研究表明，手写更有利于记忆，介绍了研究开展的经过，研究的负责人还解释了为什么手写比打字复杂以及研究的作者对使用键盘的看法。可知，D选项“书写比打字更利于记忆”最符合文章标题。故选D。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成地篇完整的短文。
Pinty Tailor was a little boy who enjoyed going to school and doing all sorts of things, except for drawing. Using brushes and pencils didn't come easy to Pinty, so his works of drawing didn't end happily, and he'd just give up.
But one day Pinty found a pencil of such lovely colors that he couldn't resist, and he tried drawing a circle. As ever, it didn't go well, and he was about to throw the pencil away when his drawing began to speak to him.
“Psst! You aren't going to leave me like this, are you Come on! The least you can do is draw me a pair of eyes!” said the drawing. Pinty was understandably shocked, but he managed to draw two little spots inside the circle.
“Much better, now I can see myself, " said the circle, looking around at itself. “Arghh! But what have you done to me !”
“I don't draw very well,” said Pinty, trying to make excuses.
“OK, no problem,” the drawing interrupted him. “I'm sure that if you try again you'll do better. Go on and rub me out!” So Pinty erased the circle and drew another one. Like the first one, it wasn’t very round.
“Hey! You forgot the eyes again! Hmm, I think I'm going to have to teach you how to draw until you can do me well,” said the circle with its quick little voice.
To Pinty, this didn't seem like a bad idea, and he immediately found himself drawing and erasing circles. The circle wouldn't stop saying “rub this out, but carefully; it hurts,” or “draw me some hair. quickly!” and other funny remarks.
After spending nearly the whole afternoon together, Pinty could already draw the little figure much better than most of his classmates could have. He was enjoying it so much that he didn't want to stop drawing with his crazy new teacher. Before going to bed that night, Pinty gave his new instructor a hearty thank you.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next morning Pinty jumped out of bed and ran to find his pencil, but it wasn't there.

So to settle the matter, he took a pencil and some paper and tried to draw a little man.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
The next morning Pinty jumped out of bed and ran to find his pencil, but it wasn't there. He searched everywhere, but there was no sign of it. And the sheet of paper on which he had drawn the little figure, although still full of rubbing out marks, was completely blank. Pinty began to worry, and he did not know if he had really spent the previous afternoon talking with the little man or whether he had dreamt the whole thing.
So, to settle the matter, he took a pencil and some paper and tried to draw a little man. It turned out not bad at all, except for a couple of jagged lines. He imagined his bossy little teacher telling him to round out those edges, and that it looked like he was trying to give him spots. Pinty gladly rubbed out those bits and redrew them. He realised that the crazy little teacher had been right: it made no difference whether you had the magic pencil or not; to manage to do things, you only needed to keep trying and to enjoy doing so.
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Pinty Tailor是一个小男孩，他喜欢上学，做各种各样的事情，除了画画。但有一天，Pinty发现了一支颜色如此可爱的铅笔，他忍不住画了一个圆圈。和以往一样，这并不顺利，他正要把铅笔扔掉，这时他的画开始对他说话了。它引导Pinty画了一个下午，画出了相对漂亮的小人。

A nurse has fulfilled (实现) a promise she made to her patient four years ago to one day attend her daughter's graduation from nursing school.
Edina Habibovic, 22, graduated from Chamberlain University's College of Nursing in 2020. Her mother, Sevala Habibovic, 46, died in 2017 after a two year fight with breast cancer.
“I thought the medical field wasn't for me. Then, my mom got sick and I had all the experience going in and out of the hospital, ” Edina told Good Morning America. “When my mom passed away, I thought, ‘I want to do this.’”she said.
Sanja Josipovic, who at the time worked as a home health nurse with Northwestern Medicine in Winfield, Illinois, cared for Sevala inside her home. They often chatted and shared the latest news with each other over six months of care.
“She was most worried about Edina because she was young and hadn't finished school yet, ” Sanja said. “We are like sisters; we care about and trust each other. She was a powerful and strong minded woman. She wasn't scared to die; she was just worried about her kids and husband.”
Edina said her mother lived for being with her family and taking care of people. “When Sanja was working, my mom would still try to make her something to eat, no matter how sick she was, ” Edina added. When Sevala's life was coming to an end, she asked Sanja to take her place at her youngest daughter's nursing school graduation. “That was the only thing she was going to miss. Edina's graduation, ” said Sanja, who is a mother of three herself. She agreed.
Due to COVID - 19, there was no graduation or pinning ceremony. Edina's manager at Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital decided to host a pinning ceremony for her and have Sanja present the pin. “Sanja has fulfilled her promise, ” Edina said.
Edina and Sanja are now caring for patients alongside one another as colleagues at Marianjoy.
4. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 3 refer to
A. Leaving the hospital B. Working as a nurse
C. Facing death positively D. Caring for Edina's mother
5. What can be learned about Sanja and Sevala
A. They enjoyed volunteering B. They were cancer survivors
C. They had unhappy marriages D. They developed a close bond
6. What would be Sevala's regret
A. The loss of the chance to study medicine B. Her absence from Edina's school graduation
C. Failing to keep the promise made to Sanja D. Never cooking a good meal for her husband
7. How did Sanja fulfill her promise
A. By taking care of Edina and her family B. By helping Edina enter her dream hospital
C. By attending a special ceremony for Edina D. By managing to become Edina's colleague

When a United Kingdom supermarket chain promised to move its farms to Net Zero by 2030, it made it clear that the effort would require working on many different fronts. From energy consumption and land - use change to methane emissions (甲烷排放), cattle farming comes with environmental challenges. So even if recent studies suggesting it's possible to cut methane emissions 80% do turn out to be accurate, there's still a very long way to go for most cattle farming to get anywhere close to truly net zero.
Organic Valley, when producing milk, might be closer to that goal. It made headlines in 2019 by going 100% renewable (可再生的). Now the company is expanding on that tradition by starting a major loan initiative (贷款计划) to help its farm suppliers adopt renewable energy too.
Created with Clean Energy Credit Union, the $ 1 million loan fund will deliver loans at below - market rates. Specifically, the money will be made available to Organic Valley's 1, 700 farmer members, and can be used for a variety of projects.
“We are focused on a whole systems approach to renewable energy, and I'm excited to launch this energy loan fund. From the farm to the shelf, I see renewable energy playing a bigger role in organic food,” said Bob Kirchoff, Organic Valley CEO.
“Organic Valley is already helping to protect the environment through organic farming practices, and now they re going one step further by supporting the introduction of renewable energy projects for their farmer members,” said Blake Jones, volunteer board chair of Clean Energy Credit Union. “In addition to the environmental benefits, we re eager to help family farmers throughout the world to lower their energy costs.”
The world is not short of examples of farmers innovating in the field of renewable energy. What's encouraging about Organic Valley's announcement is the idea of a national brand putting its marketing and financing weight behind such efforts and, hopefully, creating consumer demand that pushes the rest of the industry in this direction too.
8. What does paragraph 1 indicate about going net zero for cattle farming
A. It is not easy to achieve B. It is common in the UK
C. It is an impractical goal D. It meets no challenges
9. What is Organic Valley's tradition according to the text
A. Helping farm suppliers B. Using renewable energy
C. Having a loan initiative D. Making headlines annually
10. What is Organic Valley's initiative mainly intended to do
A. Reform organic farming practices B. Make use of environmental benefits
C. Help farmers decrease energy costs D. Shrink the group of farmer members
11. What is the author's attitude towards Organic Valley's initiative
A. Worried B. Doubtful C. Ambiguous D. Positive
D
Although computer technology is often necessary today, using a pen or pencil activates more areas of your brain than a keyboard does. You can potentially remember more by handwriting, according to a new study.
The potential benefits of handwriting for memory have been debated for some time The new study set out to answer one question: How does handwriting compare to using a keyboard when it comes to remembering new information
In all,24 participants took part. Researchers asked each of them to write with a pen and then each was also asked to type on a keyboard. While performing these tasks, each volunteer wore a cap that held electrodes next to their head. It looked somewhat like a hair net fitted with 256 sensors. Those sensors recorded the participants' brainwaves. The electrodes noted which parts of the brain turned on during each task. And they showed that writing turned on memory areas in the brain while typing didn't.
Audrey van der Meer, the new study's leader, says this suggests that when we write by hand, we remember better. “This is because writing involves complex movements that activate more areas of the brain. The increased brain activity gives the brain more ‘hooks’ to hang your memories on,” she explains. Van der Meer also points out that writing by hand is related to visual notetaking. “Rather than typing blindly, the visual notetaker has to think about what is important to write down. Then, key words can be interlinked by boxes, arrows and small drawings,” she adds.
This study does not recommend banning digital devices. In fact, its authors point out, computers and other devices with keyboards have become necessary in modern society. Keyboarding can especially benefit those with certain special needs (such as if they have trouble using their hands) and typing beats writing when it comes to speed, they add.
12. Why were participants asked to wear caps in the study
A. To record their brainwaves B. To inform them of their tasks
C. To allow them to focus on writing D. To protect their heads like hair nets
13. What does Audrey van der Meer try to explain
A. Why handwriting is more complex than typing B. Why the brain works when it comes to learning
C. Why handwriting helps remember information D. Why key words are helpful to visual notetaking
14. What is the study's authors' view on typing
A. It relieves people's hands B. It remains vital and helpful
C. It is not worth recommending D. It is more challenging than writing
15. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A. How Can You Remember New Information
B. Handwriting Benefits Health in the Long Run
C. Should Typing Take the Place of Handwriting
D. Handwriting Is Better for Memory Than Typing

Pinty Tailor was a little boy who enjoyed going to school and doing all sorts of things, except for drawing. Using brushes and pencils didn't come easy to Pinty, so his works of drawing didn't end happily, and he'd just give up.
But one day Pinty found a pencil of such lovely colors that he couldn't resist, and he tried drawing a circle. As ever, it didn't go well, and he was about to throw the pencil away when his drawing began to speak to him.
“Psst! You aren't going to leave me like this, are you Come on! The least you can do is draw me a pair of eyes!” said the drawing. Pinty was understandably shocked, but he managed to draw two little spots inside the circle.
“Much better, now I can see myself, " said the circle, looking around at itself. “Arghh! But what have you done to me !”
“I don't draw very well,” said Pinty, trying to make excuses.
“OK, no problem,” the drawing interrupted him. “I'm sure that if you try again you'll do better. Go on and rub me out!” So Pinty erased the circle and drew another one. Like the first one, it wasn’t very round.
“Hey! You forgot the eyes again! Hmm, I think I'm going to have to teach you how to draw until you can do me well,” said the circle with its quick little voice.
To Pinty, this didn't seem like a bad idea, and he immediately found himself drawing and erasing circles. The circle wouldn't stop saying “rub this out, but carefully; it hurts,” or “draw me some hair. quickly!” and other funny remarks.
After spending nearly the whole afternoon together, Pinty could already draw the little figure much better than most of his classmates could have. He was enjoying it so much that he didn't want to stop drawing with his crazy new teacher. Before going to bed that night, Pinty gave his new instructor a hearty thank you.
