As the end of the school year approached, Steven started to get a little 16 . I asked him why.

Many workers have had no choice but to adapt to working from home in recent months since offices shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic . And the noisy situation and endless housework may result in a terrible emotion. A new option is waiting for you. That is WFH: work from a hotel.
Hotel Figuero
A special program titled Work Perks aims to reposition some of 94-year-old Hotel Figuero’s 268 rooms as day-use offices.
According to Managing Director Connie Wang, the set-up launched in June and is a great opportunity to get out of their houses with high-speed Wi-Fi, unlimited printing privileges and free parking. The 350-square-foot rooms sell for $ 129 per day, with an option to extend to an overnight stay for an additional $ 20.
The Wythe
A boutique hotel in Brooklyn. The hotel recently announced a partnership with co-working office space company Industrious through which it is recycling 13 second-story guest rooms to serve as offices for up to four people.
Each of the rooms has a small outdoor platform, and dogs are welcome. Pricing starts at $ 200 and goes up to $ 275, depending on how many people use the space.
The Sawyer
The Sawyer, in Sacramento, California, is offering pool cabanas (更衣室) for use as outdoor offices, complete with fast Wi-Fi, free parking and catered lunch for $ 150 per day.
HotelsByDay
Yannis Moati founded HotelsByDay back in 2015. That company has grown to include more than 1,500 hotels, and has seen a significant increase in the number of inquiries for day-use bookings lately.
Moati said the current situation will force hotels to upgrade themselves to stay alive, and he predicted that offering rooms for day-use only is one of the directions they will go.

Ray is a physical education teacher at Central Algoma Secondary School. This year, most of their classes were remote due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
One day, Ray was talking to his daughter Sadie, who was set to graduate. The school was planning to have teachers hand-deliver diplomas (毕业文凭) to each student’s home, but Sadie asked her dad if she could receive hers on a nearby outdoor stage instead.
“I said, ‘Sure, I’ll do that. No problem. Is there anybody else who would like to receive their diploma on the stage ’ ” Ray said. “And she said, ‘Yeah, everybody would like to get their diploma on the stage.’ ”
Moved, the creative dad got to work to make it happen — not just for his daughter, but for all of the graduating seniors! He spent about six hours one weekend building a portable (便携的) stage that he could pull behind his truck. He then got permission from the school, and they eagerly agreed to help make his mobile graduation mission a success.
“It’s such an important event for so many people. … It was almost like the first win that we’ve had in a year and a half after being beaten down,” Ray said. “We finally get to do this one thing that we’ll remember for the rest of our lives.”
Over the course of two days in late June, Ray traveled over 250 miles to give 72 graduates their big moment!
Jo l Lamoureux was one student who received his diploma on the portable stage. His mom, Krissie Lamoureux, said the experience felt relaxed and easy while still providing an important photo opportunity for this milestone in their lives.
“It was extremely personal,” she added. “It’s really hard as a parent to watch your child graduate from a distance and not be able to really be a part of anything.”
All of the students were grateful to Ray and the school for creating a safe way to celebrate their accomplishments.

Sally and I founded Armadillo & Co. almost 10 years ago. From the start, we’ve poured our hearts into making the business sustainable (可持续发展的). We only use natural or recycled materials, and every step of the dyeing (染色), spinning, weaving, and finishing process is done by hand using techniques that have been handed down through generations. As a result, each carpet is truly unique and full of soul, like a modern artwork.
The other concept of our company is social responsibility. We ensure our weavers are paid fair wages, and we’re a member of Care & Fair. For the last six years, we’ve also sponsored a local primary school attended by many of our staff’s children. Each purchase of one of our carpets goes toward paying for the teachers’ salaries, uniforms, textbooks and regular health and eye checks. This year we’re launching a scholarship program to help the highest performing girls complete their secondary education. We’re as committed to giving back as we are to making beautiful products.
I think the biggest challenge in my career is the balance between life and work. Many women struggle with this, especially mothers. My three children are so young, and my husband works and travels a lot, which is even more challenging. Meanwhile, time difference is a big challenge — our team is spread across the globe, which means long working hours on Skype or in the air travelling. It can also be difficult to switch off or draw the line when you see an opportunity to do more or do better, but it’s important to set aside some time for rest.
I’m fortunate to work with Sally because we perfectly complement (补足) each other. I’m all about the big picture while she’s much more into the finer details. I’m the accelerator, and she’s the brake. Separately we’d be a disaster, but together it’s a really strong, symbiotic (共生的), and respectful relationship.”

The Tokyo Summer Olympics is going green. The 5,000 medals Japan has made are more special than most.
One novel focus of the Tokyo Olympics is to be “sustainable”— to avoid using too many natural resources, so that the games are easy on the environment. As part of this goal, the organizers decided to make all of the Olympic medals out of metal recycled from old electronics.
Almost all electronics are made with small amounts of “precious metals”, like gold and silver. But collecting enough of these metals to make 5,000 medals was a huge challenge. That’s because the amount of metal in each device is tiny. It would take about 20,000 cell phones to get just 1 kilogram of gold.
Beginning in April 2017, the organizers placed collection boxes around the country, and asked people to turn in their old electronic devices. Soon people began to respond to the initiative, turning in smartphones, digital cameras, hand-held games, and laptops. At first, collection went slowly, but soon more and more areas began to take part. By the end, 1,621 local governments had helped out with the collection process.
Then came the job of breaking those devices down into smaller pieces. After being taken apart and sorted, the small electronics were smelted (熔炼) to get all the gold, silver, and bronze elements. This is a tricky job, which calls for careful attention and good skill. It’s also dangerous, because some of the metals and other things aren’t safe for people to touch or breathe.
By the end of March, 2019, the organizers had hit their targets of getting enough metal for the medals. They had collected around 32 kilograms of gold, 4,100 kilograms of silver and 2,200 kilograms of bronze. And now all the 5,000 medals are available for the would-be winners.
32. What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us
A. The difficulty of making the medals. B. The process of collecting old electronics.
C. The initiative to recycle used smartphones. D. The classification of the collected devices.
33. What can we know about the Tokyo Olympics medals
A. They are hugely valuable. B. They are of high quality.
C. They are designed uniquely. D. They are made from e-waste.
34. The underlined word “tricky”in Paragraph 5 means“__________”.
A. creative B. demanding C. well-paid D. unique
35. What’s the purpose of Tokyo’s way of making the medals
A. To introduce a new technique to make medals. B. To promote the spirit of Olympic Games.
C. To advocate sustainable use of resources.D. To call people’s attention to environmental damage.

We all know the importance of curiosity, and here are some tips on how to develop it.
Keep an open mind. This is essential if you are to have a curious mind. Be open to learning,unlearning,and relearning things. 36 Therefore, you should be prepared to accept this possibility and change your mind.
37 Most people just accept the world as it is. This way, they will certainly lose the "holy curiosity". Try to dig deeper beneath the surface of what is around you. A sure way to dig deeper beneath the surface is asking questions. What, why, when, who, where, and how are the questions curious people always ask.
Don’t label(把……不公平地称为) anything as boring. Whenever you label something as boring, you close one door of possibilities. Curious people are unlikely to consider things boring. 38 Even if they don't yet have time to explore them, they will leave the door open to visit another time.
Take learning as something fun. If you see learning as a burden, there's no way you will want to dig deeper into anything. That will just make the burden heavier. However, if you think of learning as something fun, you will naturally want to dig deeper. 39 .
Read diverse materials. It will introduce you to the possibilities and excitement of other worlds which may attract your interest in exploring further. One easy way to do this is through reading diverse materials. 40 It’ll feed your mind with the excitement of a new world.
A. Never take all the things for granted.
B. Don't spend too much time on just one world.
C. Try to pick a book or magazine on a new subject.
D. Some things you know and believe might be wrong.
E. It doesn't matter that you don't agree with others' opinions.
F. Instead, they always see these things as a door to an exciting new world .
G. So look at life through the glasses of fun and enjoy the learning process.

Dear classmates,
I’m glad to report our group's opinions about the topic "Wild Animal Protection". Firstly, there's no doubt that wild animals should be protected strictly. They belong to part of nature and are of great importance to ecological balance. However, at the present time, some of them are facing the danger of dying out. Then, how can we protect them Some laws must be passed as soon as possible to stop people killing and selling them. Besides, people should not be allowed to eat wildlife.
Let's appreciate the importance of their protection and remember the serious lesson that humans have experienced. Protecting them means protecting ourselves.
Thank you.

第一节（共15小题；每小题2分,满分30分。）
A
Many workers have had no choice but to adapt to working from home in recent months since offices shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic . And the noisy situation and endless housework may result in a terrible emotion. A new option is waiting for you. That is WFH: work from a hotel.
Hotel Figuero
A special program titled Work Perks aims to reposition some of 94-year-old Hotel Figuero’s 268 rooms as day-use offices.
According to Managing Director Connie Wang, the set-up launched in June and is a great opportunity to get out of their houses with high-speed Wi-Fi, unlimited printing privileges and free parking. The 350-square-foot rooms sell for $ 129 per day, with an option to extend to an overnight stay for an additional $ 20.
The Wythe
A boutique hotel in Brooklyn. The hotel recently announced a partnership with co-working office space company Industrious through which it is recycling 13 second-story guest rooms to serve as offices for up to four people.
Each of the rooms has a small outdoor platform, and dogs are welcome. Pricing starts at $ 200 and goes up to $ 275, depending on how many people use the space.
The Sawyer
The Sawyer, in Sacramento, California, is offering pool cabanas (更衣室) for use as outdoor offices, complete with fast Wi-Fi, free parking and catered lunch for $ 150 per day.
HotelsByDay
Yannis Moati founded HotelsByDay back in 2015. That company has grown to include more than 1,500 hotels, and has seen a significant increase in the number of inquiries for day-use bookings lately.
Moati said the current situation will force hotels to upgrade themselves to stay alive, and he predicted that offering rooms for day-use only is one of the directions they will go.

Ray is a physical education teacher at Central Algoma Secondary School. This year, most of their classes were remote due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
One day, Ray was talking to his daughter Sadie, who was set to graduate. The school was planning to have teachers hand-deliver diplomas (毕业文凭) to each student’s home, but Sadie asked her dad if she could receive hers on a nearby outdoor stage instead.
“I said, ‘Sure, I’ll do that. No problem. Is there anybody else who would like to receive their diploma on the stage ’ ” Ray said. “And she said, ‘Yeah, everybody would like to get their diploma on the stage.’ ”
Moved, the creative dad got to work to make it happen — not just for his daughter, but for all of the graduating seniors! He spent about six hours one weekend building a portable (便携的) stage that he could pull behind his truck. He then got permission from the school, and they eagerly agreed to help make his mobile graduation mission a success.
“It’s such an important event for so many people. … It was almost like the first win that we’ve had in a year and a half after being beaten down,” Ray said. “We finally get to do this one thing that we’ll remember for the rest of our lives.”
Over the course of two days in late June, Ray traveled over 250 miles to give 72 graduates their big moment!
Jo l Lamoureux was one student who received his diploma on the portable stage. His mom, Krissie Lamoureux, said the experience felt relaxed and easy while still providing an important photo opportunity for this milestone in their lives.
“It was extremely personal,” she added. “It’s really hard as a parent to watch your child graduate from a distance and not be able to really be a part of anything.”
All of the students were grateful to Ray and the school for creating a safe way to celebrate their accomplishments.
24. What inspired Ray to create the stage

Sally and I founded Armadillo & Co. almost 10 years ago. From the start, we’ve poured our hearts into making the business sustainable (可持续发展的). We only use natural or recycled materials, and every step of the dyeing (染色), spinning, weaving, and finishing process is done by hand using techniques that have been handed down through generations. As a result, each carpet is truly unique and full of soul, like a modern artwork.
The other concept of our company is social responsibility. We ensure our weavers are paid fair wages, and we’re a member of Care & Fair. For the last six years, we’ve also sponsored a local primary school attended by many of our staff’s children. Each purchase of one of our carpets goes toward paying for the teachers’ salaries, uniforms, textbooks and regular health and eye checks. This year we’re launching a scholarship program to help the highest performing girls complete their secondary education. We’re as committed to giving back as we are to making beautiful products.
I think the biggest challenge in my career is the balance between life and work. Many women struggle with this, especially mothers. My three children are so young, and my husband works and travels a lot, which is even more challenging. Meanwhile, time difference is a big challenge — our team is spread across the globe, which means long working hours on Skype or in the air travelling. It can also be difficult to switch off or draw the line when you see an opportunity to do more or do better, but it’s important to set aside some time for rest.
I’m fortunate to work with Sally because we perfectly complement (补足) each other. I’m all about the big picture while she’s much more into the finer details. I’m the accelerator, and she’s the brake. Separately we’d be a disaster, but together it’s a really strong, symbiotic (共生的), and respectful relationship.”

The Tokyo Summer Olympics is going green. The 5,000 medals Japan has made are more special than most.
One novel focus of the Tokyo Olympics is to be “sustainable”— to avoid using too many natural resources, so that the games are easy on the environment. As part of this goal, the organizers decided to make all of the Olympic medals out of metal recycled from old electronics.
Almost all electronics are made with small amounts of “precious metals”, like gold and silver. But collecting enough of these metals to make 5,000 medals was a huge challenge. That’s because the amount of metal in each device is tiny. It would take about 20,000 cell phones to get just 1 kilogram of gold.
Beginning in April 2017, the organizers placed collection boxes around the country, and asked people to turn in their old electronic devices. Soon people began to respond to the initiative, turning in smartphones, digital cameras, hand-held games, and laptops. At first, collection went slowly, but soon more and more areas began to take part. By the end, 1,621 local governments had helped out with the collection process.
Then came the job of breaking those devices down into smaller pieces. After being taken apart and sorted, the small electronics were smelted (熔炼) to get all the gold, silver, and bronze elements. This is a tricky job, which calls for careful attention and good skill. It’s also dangerous, because some of the metals and other things aren’t safe for people to touch or breathe.
By the end of March, 2019, the organizers had hit their targets of getting enough metal for the medals. They had collected around 32 kilograms of gold, 4,100 kilograms of silver and 2,200 kilograms of bronze. And now all the 5,000 medals are available for the would-be winners.
32. What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us
A. The difficulty of making the medals. B. The process of collecting old electronics.
C. The initiative to recycle used smartphones. D. The classification of the collected devices.
33. What can we know about the Tokyo Olympics medals
A. They are hugely valuable. B. They are of high quality.
C. They are designed uniquely. D. They are made from e-waste.
34. The underlined word “tricky”in Paragraph 5 means“__________”.
A. creative B. demanding C. well-paid D. unique
35. What’s the purpose of Tokyo’s way of making the medals
A. To introduce a new technique to make medals. B. To promote the spirit of Olympic Games.
C. To advocate sustainable use of resources.D. To call people’s attention to environmental damage.

We all know the importance of curiosity, and here are some tips on how to develop it.
Keep an open mind. This is essential if you are to have a curious mind. Be open to learning,unlearning,and relearning things. 36 Therefore, you should be prepared to accept this possibility and change your mind.
37 Most people just accept the world as it is. This way, they will certainly lose the "holy curiosity". Try to dig deeper beneath the surface of what is around you. A sure way to dig deeper beneath the surface is asking questions. What, why, when, who, where, and how are the questions curious people always ask.
Don’t label(把……不公平地称为) anything as boring. Whenever you label something as boring, you close one door of possibilities. Curious people are unlikely to consider things boring. 38 Even if they don't yet have time to explore them, they will leave the door open to visit another time.
Take learning as something fun. If you see learning as a burden, there's no way you will want to dig deeper into anything. That will just make the burden heavier. However, if you think of learning as something fun, you will naturally want to dig deeper. 39 .
Read diverse materials. It will introduce you to the possibilities and excitement of other worlds which may attract your interest in exploring further. One easy way to do this is through reading diverse materials. 40 It’ll feed your mind with the excitement of a new world.
A. Never take all the things for granted.
B. Don't spend too much time on just one world.
C. Try to pick a book or magazine on a new subject.
D. Some things you know and believe might be wrong.
E. It doesn't matter that you don't agree with others' opinions.
F. Instead, they always see these things as a door to an exciting new world .
G. So look at life through the glasses of fun and enjoy the learning process.

Dear classmates,
I’m glad to report our group's opinions about the topic "Wild Animal Protection". Firstly, there's no doubt that wild animals should be protected strictly. They belong to part of nature and are of great importance to ecological balance. However, at the present time, some of them are facing the danger of dying out. Then, how can we protect them Some laws must be passed as soon as possible to stop people killing and selling them. Besides, people should not be allowed to eat wildlife.
Let's appreciate the importance of their protection and remember the serious lesson that humans have experienced. Protecting them means protecting ourselves.
Thank you.
