After braving wind, snow, and dizzying heights in the mountains, a dog named Mera may have broken a world record without even knowing it. She began following a group of climbers who were getting ready to climb up to the top of Mount Baruntse in Nepal-it stands just south of Mount Qomolangma at 23, 389 feet tall. Mera was easily frightened when the climbers first met her down in the village of Khare, so they were shocked when she suddenly bounded up next to them while they were coming down another mountain at 17, 000 feet.
Mera had passed dozens of other climbers that she could have pleased, and focused her eyes on the leader of this month-long expedition, Seattle-based Don Wargowsky. In no time they were like peas and carrots. Don happily shared his sleeping bag, tent, and meals with his new companion while the crew was hiking to the Mount Baruntse Base Camp over the next two weeks.
When it finally came time to depart from the base camp and begin their climb up the mountain, Don knew the walk was not easy for a dog, so he tied her up near the camp. "She kept barking as we walked away, " said Don. “Half an hour into our climb I felt a tickle(发痒）on the back of my knee. I looked down and saw Mera following right behind me just like before. "
After reaching the last mountain camp before the summit, the climbing crew left Mera sleeping in Don's tent with the hope that she would not try to follow them up the steep climb. Don was then surprised when he later turned around at 22, 000 feet in order to take a photo only to see Mera climbing towards them slowly. Finally, after a long climb, they reached the summit and took photos celebrating the first dog to top Mount Baruntse.
24. What was true about Mera when the climbers first met her
A. She had just broken a world record. B. The heights of the mountains dizzied her.
C. Clearly it was easy for her to be scared. D. She bounded up next to them now and then.
25. The sentence "they were like peas and carrots" in Paragraph 2 suggests that____________.
A. they preferred peas and carrots B. they got along very well together
C. they knew how to survive the cold D. they were faithful climbing lovers
26. The climbers left Mera sleeping in Don's tent because_____________.
A. it was difficult to wake her up B. the climb was more dangerous for her
C. she was too weak to go on climbing D. she kept troubling them on the way
27. Which words can best describe Mera
A. Poor but lovely. B. Strong and helpful.
C. Smart but noisy. D. Brave and determined.
C
Constant notifications(通知) on your phone. TV news specials in place of your favourite sports show. WhatsApp and Messenger full of COVID-19 articles your out-of-touch aunt just “had to share". Sound familiar If our daily news intake was counted in calories, many of us would have put on even more weight in recent months.
While audience numbers for network television news shows remain much higher than usual in many countries, ratings are, in some places, starting to decrease. In the UK, news shows have recorded their lowest audience figures since the country went into lockdown. The Nieman Journalism Lab, part of Harvard University, recently reported that “news traffic to news sites, both in the US and around the world, is pretty much back to pre-coronavirus levels”.
There are also many people who are finding themselves consumed by the news cycle mole than usual. Journalists, communications professionals, doctors, scientist and, most recently. disinfectant (消毒剂) producers are among those having to stay on top of daily comments and data in a way they’ve never previously experience. For many, this is happening while they are working from home and managing blurred(模糊的) boundaries between their work and private lives.
So how should we balance news fatigue and anxiety with the need to remain informed on the latest news during the crisis John-Paul Davies, a London-based expert, argues that for most of us, checking the headlines once a day is a sensible goal. This could be reduced to once a week for those with high levels of anxiety. He says it is also important to select “a trusted news site” or radio station with a focus on “facts rather than guesses”.
For those whose work is connected to the coronavirus crisis, experts accept it may be much harder to reduce news consumption. But John-Paul Davies says it’s still important to make an effort to “put boundaries” around how much information you watch or read. Liz Martin, a therapist based in London, recommends regular digital check-ins with workmates doing similar roles. “It’s really important to be a support to one another.” she argues.
28.What happened to people during COVID-19
A.They kept on putting on weight.
B. They lost touch with their relatives.
C.They were overloaded with news on COVID-19.
D.They were forced to choose between TV news and sports shows.
29.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed
A By giving examples. B.By testing assumptions.
C.By making predictions. D.By drawing comparisons.
30.What does the author want to explain in Paragraph 3
A. Making a smart and successful career move is very important.
B. The boundaries between work and life vary from person to person.
C. The advantages of working from home are greater than its disadvantages.
D.Some people are strongly affected by the news cycle for professional reasons.
31. What is John-Paul Davies’ advice
A.Seeking help from others. B.Turning to reliable sources.
C.Keeping checking the headlines. D.Putting information in order of priority.

Recently, many climate change campaigns and organizations have marketed themselves using images of polar bears losing their habitat. This has led many people to view the polar bear as the global icon (象征物) for our climate crisis.
The polar bear has become so widespread because it does an excellent job of playing on an audience's emotions and convincing them that there is an urgent problem on Earth. The imagery of a polar bear is also much more attractive than a scientific graph (图表) or chart of increasing sea levels or extreme weather event occurrences.
However, using polar bears as the only icon of our changing climate is flawed (有错的). For one, it only represents one effect of climate change, global warming, and not climate change itself. It neglects to address other aspects such as extreme weather events, ocean acidification, etc. While global warming is an important impact of climate change, the other aspects need to be communicated as well since climate change may not even cause warming in certain parts of the world—it could lead to severe snowstorms or colder winters instead. Thus, communicating these other elements is vital because it can reduce much of the misinformation surrounding our climate and gives the audience a more comprehensive understanding of our planet.
Moreover, using polar bears is problematic because most people do not live anywhere near polar bear habitat. This makes polar bears feel far removed from our own personal reality—thus making climate change feel far removed from our lives. Since climate change is anything but a distant phenomenon, a symbol that communicates the ways in which the climate crisis affects humans could be more convincing and push more people to act.
Even though using the polar bear as the icon of climate change is limited in conveying the full scope of our climate crisis, it can act as an agent of opening up the conversation about environmental issues and inspiring viewers to dive deeper into learning about climate change.
32. Why are polar bears preferred as marketing images
A. Their imagery is more convincing.
B. They are likely to lose their habitats.
C. They are unique victims of the climate crisis.
D. The data on them often appear in scientific graphs.
33. What can we learn from Paragraph 3
A. Polar bears are the only indicator of climate change.
B. Climate change is bound to result in global warming.
C. All elements of climate change have been communicated to the public.
D. Using polar bears as the only icon of climate change will cause some problems.
34. What does the underlined word “This" refer to in Paragraph 4
A. Failing to understand our planet.
B. Refusing to take immediate action.
C. Living apart from polar bear habitat.
D. Using polar bears to explain climate change.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage
A. The occurrence of climate change
B. The possible impact of climate change
C. The dangerous symbol of polar bears
D. The importance of protecting polar bears

Former Harvard President Drew Faust recently wrote of students overlooking the benefit of following their interest in art or linguistics. The trend towards employable subjects like math and science is reflected in decisions of college students as well as primary and secondary schools.
36 Groundbreaking work of cognitive neuroscientists reveals what we think of as “extras” are central to strengthening our minds.
Take music as an example. A study shows that musical training, particularly instrumental training, produces long lasting changes in motor abilities and brain structure. The earlier a child starts instrumental training, the stronger the connection between the right and left hemispheres (半球) of the brain. 37
What is found in musicians is also common among world-class athletes and top-level managers. Is it a coincidence that Roger Federer, Elon Musk and Steve Jobs, all studied music for years as children 38 Science backs that up. Children who play an instrument 30 minutes a week over the course of a little over a year have more highly developed brains.
39 Studying a second language restructures the brain which lasts into adulthood. The cortex (大脑皮层), which has the greatest changes when a second language is learned during childhood, influences thought and consciousness.
How about physical education Apart from the humanities (人文学科), new research also reveals children who get aerobic exercise transform their brains due to a protein that is increased during exercise. Exercise matters deeply for cognitive development for kids._ 40
Concentration, evolved communication skills, and being a good team player are just a few of the benefits research shows extra-curriculums have on a developing mind. To me, that list reads as one I might put together for a model employee.
A. The same is true for foreign language.
B. There are sound reasons for the concern.
C. Foreign language leaning should be given top priority to.
D. There is no doubt that instrumental training should be on the to do list.
E. These changes thus affect the ability to listen and communicate as an adult.
F. Perhaps, but they all owe current success, in part, to the training in that aspect.
G. Yet 20 percent of U.S. schools put an end to it in favor of increased classroom time.

67.阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
For two years,Mika and I were hunting for a cheap, cosy cottage by a stream.Then,late one night, something appeared online. A log cabin (木屋) on four acres, with a dirt road to the Susquehanna River and protected farmland on all sides.Perfect!
Except......
“You know where it is, right ”the realtor(房地产经纪人)warned when I called the next morning. Only two houses were down there. Everything else, for hundreds of acres, was open farmland. No police,no local government, not even a grocery store. The only place within fifteen miles to buy food was a one-room shop in the back of an Amish farm. If we moved out there,he warned, we’d be completely on our own.
Whatever.It had to be better than our apartment here, right
We pulled into the dirt drive way to find horses eating grass along the fence,flowers blooming in the streams, and an Amish farmer rumbling(轰隆隆)past in a steel-wheeled truck. Unbelievable! We threw open the car doors, excitedly talking about the wonderful view. Pulling the Realtor aside, we couldn’t wait to make an offer. And a few weeks later, we left Philly for our dream home.
Solitude(独处) was going to be our biggest problem-or so I thought,until I heard Mika scream. I dropped the box I was unpacking and came running. I found her on the back door, holding two-year-old Maya in her arms, moving away from a six-foot black snake winding at her feet.She had been watering a row of plants and when she stepped from one to the next,the snake dropped from the roof and felt down right where Mika had been standing a second earlier.

Dear friends,
There is no denying that electricity plays a great role in our society. However, with the rapid
development of our country, it is being consumed too much, which threatens the sustainable
economic growth.
It is high time that we saved electricity. Switch off the household appliances in time. Use the
stairs as often as possible. Set the air conditioner at a reasonable temperature. All in all, form a
good habit of saving electricity.
Let's make joint efforts to save energy and live a green low-carbon life.

I grabbed a shovel. I tried to drive the monster away, but it began climbing up the roof. I banged the shovel in front of its face to drive it back. Instead, the snake slid right over the shovel and disappeared into the roof. Now what The only thing worse than finding a giant snake outside your house is driving it inside, especially when inside contains a baby you’ll soon be putting to bed.
I walked to our nearest neighbor for help. When I finally found an old Amish farmer and asked him how to get rid of the snake, he didn’t understand the problem. “You’re lucky,” he said. “That’s a rat snake. It will eat your mice and stay out of your way.” So I needn’t have worried at all! All I need is to get used to its being around. I went home in great relief.

People who live in cities usually take their dirty clothes to a laundry place called a
"laundromat". These public businesses are usually open from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. A smaller
laundromat might have 12 washers and 12 dryers. while a larger one might have twice that number.
Most places do not have any employees there, as there are simple instructions posted near the
machines and everything can be done without assistance. Most people bring their own washing soap,
but there is often a machine that sells small packages in case you run out or forget yours. During the
weekend, it can be hard to find an open machine but it is much easier during the week. Many
laundry places have TVs, magazines, or free Wi-Fi. Recently, many laundry places have added cafés
or bars. Because people usually spend a few hours doing their laundry, having a drink or a meal is a convenient and fun way to pass the time. Of course, when so many people are washing their clothes
close to each other, it is easy to make mistakes.
