Donating to charity is a great way to get rid of things that you no longer want or need when you're moving. And if you donate through one of the charities that pick up your stuff, you don't even have to leave your home to make a difference. To help make your life even easier, we'd like to recommend Salvation Army that offers donation pick-ups right from your home. Get to organizing, schedule a pick-up date, and find out just how easy it is to give new life to your unwanted items.
When you think about where to donate unwanted belongings, your mind might go to Salvation Army first. And it makes sense-the Salvation Army has been in operation for over 150 years, and its locations can currently be found in more than 7,000 American towns and cities. Items are either brought directly to those who need them or sold at a steep discount to those in need at a Salvation Army store, and the organization offers free furniture pick-up, among other things.
What they accept： Furniture, clothing, various household items and appliances, electronics ， books and used cars.
Who they help： The Salvation Army assists those in need across a wide variety of areas. including victims of domestic violence, at-risk youth, the elderly, and natural disaster victims.
How to schedule a Salvation Army pick-up： To schedule a Salvation Army pick-up, head to satruck. org/donate/choose and enter your address and phone number. From there, you 11 list the items that you plan to donate and then schedule a pick-up date.

Polish Olympian Maria has generously auctioned （拍卖）off her Tokyo Games silver medal to raise funds for a baby's lifesaving operation.
When Maria heard about 8-month-old Miloszek's battle for survival, she felt it a must to do something to help. The baby had a serious and rare heart disease. His condition was badly worsening, and he was in need of immediate surgery. His parents sought funds to cover the cost of his transportation and medical care for the complicated surgery at Stanford University Medical Center in the United States.
As a cancer survivor, Maria knows what it is like to fight the disease. She overcame bone cancer and a shoulder injury to make her comeback and compete at this summer's Tokyo Olympic Games. Her hard work paid off, earning her first medal.
Athletes make enormous sacrifices to have an opportunity to compete at the Olympic Games, and winning an Olympic medal is every athlete's dream. Maria treasured what the medal represents. However, she decided her medal was more valuable at auction if the raised funds could help save a child's life.
Maria stated in her social media auction announcement that Miloszek's fundraising already had a good head start. It was at the halfway point of reaching its goal of $ 390,000. That was thanks to the family of a recently deceased young boy who generously donated the funds originally meant for their son. Maria hoped her Olympic silver medal would take the fundraising across the finish line.
Zabka, a popular Polish supermarket chain, won Maria's silver medal auction with a bid of $ 125,000. Zabka5s owners gracefully declined to accept the silver medal and returned it to Maria. They stated they were grateful for the opportunity to contribute to such a good cause.

Nature is all about relationships： the interconnected links between the living and lifeless, and how they harmonize beautifully into a whole that might not be immediately apparent to us humans, as the complexities of the world sometimes escape the grasp of our relatively shortsighted understanding. Perhaps that's why the urgency of the climate crisis and other environmental issues don't truly hit home for some； because that important data is presented in a dry, factual way that doesn't touch the deeper parts of our collective soul, in a way that would move us to realize what is being lost.
Clare Celeste is an environmentally-minded artist creating artworks that aim to highlight the precious biodiversity of the planet. Using paper that is complexly cut and then hand- assembled piece by piece, Celeste forms imaginary landscapes of plants and animals that are folded or pressed between glass.
Growing up in Brazil, Celeste says that her earliest childhood memories were of green, tropical ecosystems slowly being eaten up by the rapid expansion of nearby cities.
Celeste said, “When I made a series of combinations, I realized that many of the species in the illustrations had already gone extinct. Humans have wiped out 68 percent of all our planet‘s biodiversity since 1970, so working with old illustrations can be very heartbreaking as much of the diversity in these beautiful old illustrations has been wiped out by human activities.”
Celeste explains some of the motivations behind this series of paper works： "I wanted to convey the beauty of our planet's plants and animals, while also introducing a more architectural or human-made element with the geometric （几何图形的）patterns. Having grown up in Brazil, I was surrounded by dense urban spaces that often had rich jungle growth just wanting to break through the concrete architecture. I suggest we go back to our love： our love of nature, of our children, of future generations. Because when we love something deeply, we are required to act — to save it when it is threatened. "
8. What can we infer from the first paragraph
A. People are connected with each other.
B. People find data on nature boring to study.
C. People can't solve the climate crisis on their own.
D. People don't fully understand environmental issues.
9. What did Celeste remember about her childhood
A. Cities were rich in green plants.
B. Buildings were decorated with plants.
C. Urbanization destroyed the local biodiversity.
D. Nature was a mixture of natural artworks.
10. What can be inferred from Celeste's words in paragraph 4
A． Human activities have severely damaged biodiversity.
B． Humans feel painful at the loss of species.
C． Her paper cuts represent the extinction of species.
D. Most species die without adapting to environment.
11. What motivates Celeste to create her works
A. The desire for a good childhood memory.
B. The desire to protect the biodiversity.
C. The idea of imagining landscapes.
D. The hope of preserving natural beauty.
D
In school, we're taught word repetition is bad and that we shouldn't use the same word over and over again in the same piece. It gives the impression that we have a severely limited vocabulary.
Later on, however, we're sometimes told that it's better to use the same word repeatedly. With dialogue, some novel-writing professors recommend using “said" with each comment instead of replacing it with synonyms (同义词)(whispered, responded, etc. ). Word repetition is also an emotional appeal strategy for speeches and sales, because people remember and respond to things they hear multiple times.
So which way is right
The answer is, “It depends. " If you're writing for school, it's not a very good idea to use the same word constantly. If you're writing dialogue that you want to keep moving at a fast pace, using mostly "said" can help do that because “he said" and “she said“ more or less fade into the background. They don't take much time or attention for the readers, so they can skip over and focus on the dialogue. However, this isn't a hard-and-fast rule. You might rely on "said" for one scene and mix in a bunch of synonyms for another.
Repeating a word can also provide emphasis, and it's really good for sales. Think about commercials and how they re-use specific words to make sure that those words stick in your memories. The trick to this method, however, is that you have to make sure other words aren't repeating the same way. Otherwise, the repetition loses its power.
In the end, it comes down to personal taste and the effect you're trying to achieve. As
Shakespeare said, "there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so. " You may need to repeat the same word every time. You may need to mix it up with synonyms. You may need to do both at the same time for different ideas. And the decision may change completely by what you're trying to do.
12. Why should you avoid repetition in your school essay
A. It would get readers angry if you did that.
B. Teachers thinks less of your vocabulary.
C. Essays are graded by your vocabulary.
D, Readers hate to read simple words over again.
13. What effect does using “said" repeatedly in dialogues have
A. Limiting the writing speed.
B. Highlighting the writer's vocabulary.
C. Putting more emphases on backgrounds.
D. Speeding up the reading process.
14. How should word repetition be used in commercials
A. Repeat specific words but do the rest in another way.
B. The more word repetitions, the better effect they have.
C. Word repetition should be kept from being used in any way.
D. Make sure that each word is repeated in the same way.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. What Effect Can Repetition Have on Novels
B. Why does Poetry Use Repetitions
C. Is Word Repetition Good or Bad
D. How Is Word Repetition Used in Ads

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。
A 2020 study by Balbix found that 99% of the people surveyed reused their passwords between work accounts or between work and personal accounts. 16 .
For example, a 2019 study by Google found that 59% of the people they surveyed used a name or a birthday in their password. And 24 % admitted using a password like one of these below： 1234, 12345, 123456, etc. 17 Since both personal and work accounts are accessible from the same device with the same password, it simplifies the work a bad actor has to do in order to breach （攻入）your systems.
18 The NIST （National Institute of Standards and Technology） Password Guidelines are widely regarded as the international standard for password best practices. Following these guidelines-and insisting your employees do the same-will help protect you against threats from weak or stolen passwords. Password managers can simplify the work required for your
employees to follow these guidelines.
It's more secure to require your employees to use more than one authentication （身份验 证） factor to access mobile company applications, 19 They'd need to check on their identity with additional authentication factors in order to log in.
Finally, you can also perform password less authentication. 20 For example, in the event that a mobile device is stolen or accessed illegally, requiring a facial scan （扫描）or a finger scan as a primary or secondary authentication factor could still prevent unauthorized access.
A. Passwords are commonly shared in the workplace.
B. It will help you to root out password risks altogether.
C. Many employees still create weak and simple passwords.
D. These bad password habits present a threat to organizations.
E. That helps reduce the risk that a bad actor gains access to your systems.
F. Unfortunately, the passwords that employees are reusing are often weak.
G. However, that's not to say there is no way to reduce or uproot password threats.
