Including the following food or fruit in your breakfast makes you healthier and full of energy.
Grapefruit
“Even if you changed nothing else about your diet，eating half a grapefruit before each meal may help you lose up to a pound a week，” says Patricia Bannan，author of Eat Right When the Time Is Right. “Researchers found that when obese people ate half a grapefruit before each meal，they dropped an average of 3.5 pounds over 12 weeks，” she says.
Tart Cherry
Tart cherries have been shown to benefit heart health as well as body weight in a study on obese rats. A 12 week study by the University of Michigan found that rats fed tart cherries showed a 9 percent belly fat reduction. Moreover，the researchers noted that the cherry consumption had great ability to alter the expression of fat genes. Enjoy them during breakfast to kick your morning off right.
Sweet Potato
Sweet potatoes are packed with nutrients and can help you burn fat. They are high in fiber and have a low glycemic index(血糖指数)，which means they are absorbed slowly and keep you feeling full longer. Min Chen likes to use them to whip up a sweet potato hash. “I love any kind of this dish because it provides rich vitamins，minerals and fiber. It is very filling，which helps keep appetite and portions under control as the day goes on，”she says.
Bell Pepper
Green，red or yellow，fresh or frozen，peppers are never a bad companion for your eggs. Thanks to their high vitamin C content，eating them can help burn stored fat. Studies also indicate that Vitamin C helps muscles process a fatty acid called carnitine that’s essential to muscle growth and recovery.

Jack was born without eyes. He was very lucky as he grew up having other kittens (young cats) to socialize with, and was used to people from the moment he was born. However, when it came time to find the kittens homes, no one knew where Jack would end up.
That's when I got an email from my friend. All she asked was “Do you still want one of the kittens There's one here with no eyes and no one would like to take him.” Without thinking, I told her that I did want the kitten.
When we first brought him home, Jack stayed mostly in my room. After about a day he had no issues running around and climbing on everything. At times he gets lost in the house, he'll stop. But we just call him and talk to him and it isn't long before he finds his way back to us.
A few weeks after getting Jack, we got a new farm cat named Bear. Jack and Bear have become best friends. It doesn't matter that he can't see. He always knows when Bear is around. He'll run across the yard straight to Bear and wrap his front legs around his neck in a big hug. They run after each other around and wrestle. They'll lie down in the grass together when tired. Jack is truly an inspiration. I've owned lots of kittens in my life, but Jack is the happiest and most playful. He doesn't feel sorry for himself. He doesn't need pity. I think Jean, owner of Gumbo, another eyeless cat, said it best when she told me that cats don't have disabilities, they have adaptability.
24. Why did Jack come to our home
A. I liked an eyeless cat.
B. My friend ordered me to take him home.
C. No other young cats kept him company.
D. I didn't mind whether he was blind.
25. What does the underlined word “issues” in the 3rd paragraph mean
A. Difficulty. B. Fun. C. Luck. D. Business.
26. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. Jack likes to play with a new eyeless cat.
B. Jack is good at talking and playing with people.
C. Jack quickly adapts to the new environment.
D. Jack and Bear lie down on the sofa together when tired.
27. What can we learn from the passage
A. A cat has nine lives.
B. All is well that ends well.
C. A good beginning makes a good ending.
D. God helps those who help themselves.
C
Kielder Forest in Northumberland, England, is home to birds of gray and red squirrels. Around 90 years ago, it was also home to the pine marten(松貂). The 0.5 meters animal was driven to dying out in England by 1926 because gamekeepers wanted to secure the safety of their game birds, according to The Guardian.
However, the martens thrived in Scotland, and the animals appear to be crossing back into England. A pine marten was spotted in Kielder Forest by John Hartshorne, a volunteer who monitors the red squirrel population in the forest, part of an effort to stop gray squirrels from further invading (入侵) the red squirrels’ territory.
The pine marten is one of the animals receiving a helping hand from Back from the Brink, one of the conservation groups working together to help save 20 species from dying out in England. Their efforts aim at helping the pine marten and other at-risk species.
Red squirrels are threatened by invasive gray squirrels, which out-compete the native squirrels for food and pass on a deadly virus. Martens keep gray squirrel numbers in check, especially since the invasive animals aren’t used to having a predator like the pine marten around. A 2018 study found that the presence of pine martens can be enough to push the gray squirrel population out of an area. So the pine marten returning to Kielder is a win-win: The pine marten returns to part of its historic range and by doing so, helps red squirrels continue to survive.
28. Why was the pine marten forced to leave Northumberland
A. To attract more hunters. B. To protect local animals.
C. To keep game birds safe D. To keep game birds from hunters.
29. What does the underlined word “thrived” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Died out slowly. B. Evolved rapidly.
C. Had difficulty adapting. D. Increased in population.
30. What is John Hartshorne’s duty according to Paragraph 2
A. To help the pine marten to thrive. B. To free the red squirrels of danger.
C. To monitor the population of birds. D. To stop gray squirrels from dying out.
31. What’s the last paragraph mainly talks about
A. The role of the pine marten. B. The importance of a 2018 study.
C. The promising future of red squirrels. D. The harmful effects of gray squirrels.
D
Most people around the world are right handed. This also seems to be true in history. In 1799，scientists studied works of art made at different times from 1,500 B．C. to the 1950s.Most of the people shown in these works are right handed，so the scientists guessed that right handedness has always been common through history. Today，only about 10% to 15% of the world’s population is left handed.
Why are there more right handed people than left handed ones？Scientists now know that a person’s two hands each have their own jobs. Most people use hands to find things or hold things. The right hand is used to work with things. This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain. The right side of the brain，which makes a person’s hands and eyes work together，controls the left hand. The left side of the brain，which controls the right hand，is the center for thinking and doing problems. These findings show that more artists should be left handed，and studies have found that left handedness is twice as common among artists as among people in other jobs.
No one really knows what makes a person become right handed instead of left handed. Scientists have found that almost 40% of the people become left handed because their main brain is damaged when they are born. However，this doesn’t happen to everyone，so scientists guess there must be another reason why people become left handed. One idea is that people usually get right handed from their parents.
Though right handedness is more common than left handedness, people no longer think left handed people are strange or unusual.
32．After studying works of art made at different times in history, the scientists found that .
A．the art began from 1,500 B．C.
B．the works of art ended in the 1950s
C．most people shown in the works of art are right handed
D．most people shown in the works of art are left handed
33．How many people in the world are left handed now
A．Less than one sixth. B．More than a half.
C．About 40%. D．The passage doesn’t tell us.
34．According to the passage，which of the following is NOT true
A．No one really knows what makes a person become right handed.
B．Left handedness is cleverer than right handedness.
C．Today children are not made to use their right hands only.
D．Scientists think there must be some reason why people become left handed.
35．The best title for this passage is “ ”．
A．Scientists’ New Inventions B．Left handed People
C．Which Hand D．Different Brains，Different Hands

Most high schools and colleges have debate teams. Debate teams from different schools often compete against each other. The purpose of the debate is not to choose the right side of the topic，but to successfully argue the points of the side you choose. 36 Those with experience know that there are skills that can improve your chances of winning the match.
Research the subject thoroughly. 37 Map out what key points are favorable to your side of the debate，and plan how you will express those points. Also research and consider what points support the other side of the debate，so you can plan how to rebut (反驳) those points.
Attract your audience. Whether your audience is a table full of judges or the public，it is important for the one debating to speak directly to the audience. Explain your points in a way that the audience can relate to. Don’t be afraid to express your love for the topic. 38
Speak as an authority． 39 Using published studies is very helpful，since it gives the impression of having an independent third party back up your argument.
40 Keep your hands to your side. Make eye contact with your opponent(对手) when possible. Stand straight. Opponents，judges and listeners can usually tell by your body language if you are defensive，angry or nervous. Signs of insecurity might include running your hands through your hair，touching your face，or staring at your notes without looking up.
A. This style of debate is an art form.
B. Focus on ways you might improve your body language.
C. You can give your listeners some ideas or data they can remember.
D. It is important to have a good understanding of the subject you are debating.
E. Have statistical data from research reports to support the points you are supporting.
F. You want to have the ability to express your opinion and to support that opinion with a clear argument.
G. Public speaking is a part of debating and those who know this can move listeners with their words.

I was always complaining about wind or rain. Although it was nothing unusual for the arrival of wind or rain, it caused inconvenience for me to go out, and sometimes it even created an awful atmosphere, so I 41 it strongly.
On a rainy day a meteorologist （气象学家） I met was very 42 at my great anger caused by rain that made a little inconvenience for me.
He asked, “Have you ever seen typhoon Do you know what would happen to the world if there were no typhoon ” I shook my head. I had no experience of how overwhelming it was when it 43 everything away in its way.
“Well, let me tell you,” the meteorologist said. “Without it the 44 of fresh water will be more serious, for it is a great 45 of water supply on earth. Without it, there would be a greater imbalance in the distribution of __46 . The equatorial area that receives the most sunshine on earth 47 _entirely on typhoon to disperse（驱散）heat. Without typhoon the tropics would be even 48 while the frigid zones much colder. As a result the temperate zones（温带）would 49 from the world...”
Ignorance made me 50 . I disliked wind only because it ruffled （吹乱） my hair. I hated rain merely because I had to carry an umbrella. But I had no idea at all that typhoon—something much more violent, something a thousand times more 51 than wind or rain—was a（n） 52 to the existence of mankind.
53 no road on earth goes all the way on level ground, there’s no person in the world who can do whatever he pleases. Wrong as it is for people to guard against typhoon, it is advisable for a man to stop to think for a moment before he complains. “ 54 typhoon disappeared all together What would the world become then ” The 55 will keep him calm and lead him closer to truth—he will be better aware of the world he lives in.

"I was curious and danced with him. We talked for a while during a break, when I learned about his story," said Liu, who later wrote 58 article titled Goodbye Evening Star, which he published on his social media platform. Mohe Ballroom, 59 (write) in March last year, is based on the old man's story.
On May 6, 1987, about 200 people were killed when a fire that broke 60 in mountains near Mohe tore through the city. The fire, which lasted 28 days, destroyed more than 10,000 square kilometers of forest. Direct economic losses were estimated at 500 million yuan.

The song's huge 63 (popular) has made Mohe an in-demand tourism destination. Visitors flock to the city 64 （see）the ballroom, in the hope of meeting the elderly man.
Li Jinbao, who owns the ballroom, told Beijing News: "The man often visited my ballroom in 2019. However, since the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, I have not seen him.

TALK TO ME
Mom was having a surgery on her throat. She had lost her voice four years before. Mom loved writing and was a popular newspaper columnist among the online circles.
“We really believe you’ll get your voice back. The surgery will work. Right, Mom ” I stared into Mom’s eyes, eager for a positive answer. Expressionless, Mom lifted her eyes from her laptop and pulled out one of the post—its（便利贴）that were stuck to the plastic case of the LCD display. It said “Yes”. I pursed my lips.
Her eyes fell back to her laptop. She didn’t smile, and she didn’t even look at me while raising the post—it in front of me as if she didn’t care at all. But I did. I was desperate to hear her speak again. She meant the world to me.
But Mom was not in the least excited about getting her voice back, because it was her third surgery and the last two didn’t work out. She was hopeless.
“Dad will be here soon,” I told Mom. She shrugged（耸肩）.
Just then Dr Smith entered the ward. “Relax, Lisa. There’s a good chance that your mom can speak after the surgery,” he comforted me. And I nodded with a forced smile. After two nurses wheeled Mom away to the operating room, I sat outside as the surgery went on. Resting my elbows on my knees, I buried my head in my hands, praying for the surgery to go well.
Mom had developed throat cancer. When she woke up one morning as a mute（哑巴）, I cried my eyes out though I was tired of her continually lecturing me about my improper behavior. Being unable to hear her voice was heart—breaking. Worse still, she no longer smiled at Dad and me and stopped giving us those morning hugs I always looked forward to. I couldn’t bear seeing her like this, so helpless, so quiet. All those post—its saying “I love you”, “I miss you”… had lost their meanings. Recalling all this, I couldn’t help weeping.
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。
Then I felt a hand on my shoulder. Dad and I held Mom’s hands until she woke up.

Dear Peter,
Knowing that you are writing a report about Chinese rural life, I sincerely invite you to my hometown to spend the coming winter vacation.
My hometown is a typical village of northern China, where you can not only be exposed to the living environment of the villagers but also truly experience their daily life in every aspect. Meanwhile, you can participate in the colorful activities in celebration of the Spring Festival and immerge yourself in the authentic Chinese culture. All this will provide rich first—hand materials for your report.
I believe it will be a rewarding experience. Looking forward to your coming.
Yours,
Li Hua

Then I felt a hand on my shoulder. Looking up tearfully, I found it was Dad. “Dad!” I got up and threw myself into his arms. “Mom will be fine,” Dad comforted me, patting my back gently. “I hope so too,” I whispered. Three hours had passed before Dr Smith came out. Dad and I sprung up and rushed forward. Dr Smith told us the surgery was a success and that Mom would be able to speak when she woke up. We were overwhelmed by joy. Before long, Mom was wheeled back to the ward.
Dad and I held Mom’s hands until she woke up. “Honey, you can speak now,” Dad said fondly. But we found no sign of pleasure in Mom’s eyes. “Mom, say something,” I encouraged her. Ignoring me, Mom attempted to pull out a post—it saying “Hi”. “No more post—its! Talk to me! You can, Mom!” I seized her hand tightly and gazed deep into her eyes, trying to give her courage. Hesitant, Mom opened her mouth, forcing out a weak “Hi”. Strange as it sounded, it was the loveliest voice I’d ever heard. We three embraced, tears of happiness streaming down our cheeks.
