第二部分：阅读（共两节，满分50分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2. 5分，满分37. 5分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
American Express Gold: Best “non-travel” travel card
Why it’s great in one sentence: The American Express Gold card earns tons of valuable Amex travel points on practically all the food-related purchases you’re making even when you’re not traveling, and the credits available on the card nearly offset（抵消）its annual fee.
This card is right for: People who can use all of the card’s various credits and who spend significant money at restaurants, on food delivery services or at U. S. supermarkets while they’re not on the road.
Highlights:
First, with the Amex Gold, you’ll eam 4 points for every dollar you spend on restaurants worldwide, and on up to $25,000 in annual purchases ar U. S. supermarkets（I point per dollar afterwards）. Most food delivery services count as “restaurants” on this card, so that means the vast majority of your food purchases will earn 4 points, regardless of how you’re eating.
You’ll also earn 3 points per dollar when you book airfare directly with an airline, so if you’re looking to jump on any sales for flights later in the year, you can pay for them with the Amex Gold and earn extra points on those as well.
The points earned on this card are American Express Membership Rewards points, which are extremely useful. You can redeem（兑取现金）them directly for flights via Amex Travel at I cent each, but if you put in some extra effort and research, you can potentially get much more value from them by transferring them to any of Amex’s 21 airline ang and hotel partners, which include Delta Air Lines, JetBlue, Marriott and many more.
21. Which is true about the American Express Gold card
A. It requires much annual fee. B. It is suitable for restaurant owners.
C. It focuses on supermarket services. D. It is closely linked with food purchases.
22. If you spend S 26,600 annually at U. S. supermarkets, how many points will you earn
A. 100,000. B. 106,400. C. 101,600. D. 100,800.
23. What can you do with these points on this card
A. Change them into money for daily use. B. Buy services in recommended airlines.
C. Take certain airlines for free. D. Use them to do research into airlines.
B
“Twelve years ago, I was a professional dancer and black belt in taekwondo（跆拳道）when a disease went undiagnosed and wiped out my muscular system. I finally ended up on life support in intensive care with organ failure. “Kaufman recalled,” I went from living this big life to not knowing how I was going to survive. Fortunately, on my birthday in 2009, I received a new heart and was given a second chance at life!”
After volunteering in Los Angeles hospitals, Kaufman started the non-profit, Ava’s Heart. She and her organization offered transplant patients services that were often not covered by insurance, including food, gas, co-pays on medicines, and housing.
“What I found out was that if you didn’t have post-transplant-housing, you couldn’t get listed and admitted into the hospital, “Kaufman said. She learned that for the nearly 110,000 people in the US waiting for a lifesaving organ transplant, it was not just a matter of adding your name to the list. Patients must be financially secure and be able to afford transportation. What’s more, they must find accommodations near their transplant hospital: Kaufman runs two housing locations, which allows the patients to remain close to their transplant hospital during the period of their aftercare, typically about three months at no cost.
Her organization also helps donor families, which she thinks makes the whole cirele complete. “One organ donor can save eight lives and then there’s tissue and skin and eyes and blood vessels（血管）and so many other things,” Kaufman said. “The donor is the whole story. Without the donor, there are no transplant centers, no transplant surgeons, no me. In my eyes, the donors are the heroes. ”
To date, Ava’s Heart has helped nearly 90 families with burial costs for their loved ones whose organs have saved countless lives. Kaufman also works closely with those who receive donations to build relationships with donor families and spread awareness about the importance of organ donation.
24. What is the purpose of Kaufman’s mentioning her memory in the beginning
A. To hint her motivation for paying it forward. B. To illustrate life is unpredictable.
C. To recall her sufferings from a disease. D. To show her enthusiasm for dance and taekwondo.
25. For a transplant patient, admission into the hospital requires the following EXCEPT ______.
A. convenient housing B. health insurance C. financial safety D. transportation expenses
26. What is the meaning of the underlined words “wiped out” in the first paragraph
A. destroyed B. improved C. weakened D. enhanced
27. What message does the text mainly convey
A. One good turn deserves another. B. Health counts more for every individual.
C. The blessed bear the heart of giving. D. Donors are the whole story for transplant.
C
Combining knowledge of chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering, scientists from McGill. University develop a biomaterial tough enough to repair the heart, muscles, and voeal cords. representing a major advance in medicine.
“People recovering from heart damage often face a long and tricky journey. Healing is challenging because of the constant movement tissues must withstand（承受）as the heart beats. The same is true for vocal cords. Until now there was no injectable（可注射的）material strong enough for the job，” says Guangyu Bao, a PhD candidate in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at McGill University.
The team, led by Professor Luc Mongeau and Assistant Professor Jianyu Li, developed a new injectable hydrogel（水凝胶）for wound repair, which is a type of biomaterial that provides room for cells to live and grow. Once injected into the body, the biomaterial forms a stable structure allowing live cells to grow or pass through to repair the injured organs.
“The results are promising, and we hope that one day the new hydrogel will be used to restore the voice of people with damaged vocal cords,” says Guangyu Bao.
The scientists tested the durability of their hydrogel in a machine they developed to copy the extreme biomechanics of human vocal cords. Vibrating（振动）at 120 times a second for over 6 million cycles, the new biomaterial remained undamaged while other standard hydrogels broken into pieces, unable to deal with the stress of the load.
“We were incredibly excited to see it worked perfectly in our test. Before our work, no injectable hydrogels possessed both high porosity（多孔性，疏松）and toughness at the same time. To solve this issue, we introduced a pore-forming polymer to our formula（配方），” says Guangyu Bao.
The innovation opens new ways of making progress for other applications like tissue engineering. The team is also looking to use the hydrogel technology to create lungs to test COVID-19 drugs.
28. What did the researchers develop the new biomaterial for
A. To experience a tricky joumey. B. To substitute damaged organs.
C. To advance the progress of medicine. D. To repair the injured organs.
29. What is special about the biomaterial compared to other materials
A. It is heavier but advanced. B. It is injectable and strong.
C. It is more expensive. D. It is easier to break.
30. What might the researchers do about the biomaterial
A. Use it to cure COVID-19. B. Increase its toughness for repairing lungs.
C. Invent artificial organs for drug test. D. Improve its formula further.
31. What does the author intend to do by writing this passage
A. To introduce a newly-developed material. B. To stress the importance of innovation.
C. To promote the sales of a new hydrogel. D. To show his respect to the researchers.
D
Human is struggling to contain two major crises: Skyrocketing global temperatures and deep-diving biodiversity（生物多样性多）. But people tend to solve each problem on its own, for instance by using green energies and carbon-cating machines, while surrounding ecosystems to preserve them. But a new report argues that treating each crisis in isolation（孤立地）means missing out on solutions that resolve both. Human can’t solve one without also solving the other.
So what might these solutions look like Say, for instance, you tum a heavily logged forest into a national park. As the trees grow back, they would provide habitat for the returm of animals . Letting a forest come back naturally, rather than planting a single species of tree to balance up some corporation’s carbon emissions（排放）, makes it recover faster. This is known as a nature-based solution, a campaign that both absorb carbon and provides an extra ecological or economic benefit.
Stopping human’s attacks on ecosystems can also help fight climate change, the study’s authors write. Even cities can get in on the action, the report notes. Urban areas turn into “heat islands” because they absorb the sun’s energy during the day and slowly release it at night. They are therefore much hotter than surrounding rural areas. Planting more trees cools cities and provides habitats for birds and shade for humans, which will be even more critical as global temperatures rise.
The big threat, the authors stress, is that nature-based solutions alone can’t stop climate change. As temperatures climb and droughts get more severe, it’ll be harder for forests, wetlands, and mangroves to survive, even with our help. First and foremost, human has to dramatically reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. “Nature is not going to save us. ” the authors say. “We can only use nature to support efforts. ”
“Still, governments and corporations are becoming more conscious of the importance of maintaining biodiversity while also fighting climate change,” says Beymer-Farris, from the University of Kentucky. “I, myself, as a professor who has been working in this for 20 years, I see a lot of prospects, because I see a lot of change on the horizon. ”
32. How should we humans tackle the two crises based on the new research
A. Applying carbon-eating machines. B. Attaching more importance to one of them.
C. Solving them in isolated ways. D. Coping with them in the meanwhile.
33. What figure of speech does the underlined sentence use in the third paragraph
A. Simile. B. Metaphor. C. personification. D. Irony.
34. What is Beymer-Farris’s attitude to the future of the ecology”
A. Negative. B. Skeptical. C. Ambiguous. D. Positive.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. How to fight climate change and protect species. B. New ways to live harmoniously with nature.
C. Reasons for urban areas becoming “heat islands”. D. Two major crises facing humans.

It was dark and freezing cold outside though it was four o’clock in the afternoon. The wind kept blowing. At that time, the bell rang loudly, and everybody packed their schoolbags and got ready to go home. The teacher dismissed the students, and they walked orderly to the school gate.
David was in Class One, Grade Seven. His mother would come and pick him up from school but today she was absent. David wondered what had happened, but he was not worried at all. It usually took only ten minutes for his mother to get to school by riding an electric bike. David saw his best companion, Tommy, who was his deskmate. Tommy was waiting patiently for his mother as well. They began to talk freely and happily. David congratulated Tommy on his excellent performance in the last math exam. Five minutes later. Tommy’s mother picked up Tommy and they said goodbye to each other.
David had to put up with moments of solitude（孤独）. He had no choice but to wait until his mother came into his sight. However, half an hour passed, and there was no sign that his mother would come. David was determined to walk home.
On his way home, David could hardly see any passers-by. The trees shook with the wind and the leaves fell from them without making any noise. David was lost in thinking what was wrong with his mother. Some terrible thoughts jumped out of his mind. “Maybe an accident happened to her. Maybe she got hurt by some robbers. Maybe she was seriously ill. ” Little David burst into tears and quickened his step. He did not dare to think over the results. What he could do was pray for the safety of his mother and wish everything was all right.
Time slipped away like an arrow. In the short distance, it was his beautiful house with a garden. “This must be the worst experience in my life,” David thought to himself and felt scared.

Dear Mr. Davis
I am Li Hua, an exchange student from China. I’m writing to apply to you for an idea that we should set up a Traditional Chinese Painting Club in our school.
As far as I know, many students in our school are very interested in traditional Chinese painting, so it is a good idea to start one. What’s more, I also believe this club will offer an excellent opportunity for students to learn different cultures and make more friends.
I’d appreciate it if you could take my application into consideration.
Yours sincerely.
Li Hua

Paragraph 1:
David stood in front of the door and opened it hurriedly. He turned on the lights without hesitation. Everything was in order. The floor was clean. The sofa was neat. It seemed nothing special. David pushed all the doors and was eager to look for his mother. Still, he couldn’t find her anywhere. There was no doubt that his mother was not at home right now. It was hard for him to control his nervous emotion. He ran to the telephone and began to make a phone call to his mother.
Paragraph 2:
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door and came a familiar voice. It was his mother. He hurried to the door and opened it excitedly with a tremendous sense of relief. His mother wore a big smile, saying, “I just want you to be independent. And I followed you along the way. You made it. I am proud of you. ” David hugged his mother tightly, making a promise that he would never worry her and he would become brave and spare no effort to maintain independence.

Text 10
W: A travel website conducted a survey on hotel complaints and found some unusual things. The site surveyed 400 hotel staff in 39 countries. It asked about the strangest things guests had asked for or complained about. Staff said that most of the unusual complaints were about food. Other requests were about rooms. Not every hotel room is to everybody’s taste, but the complaints in the Skyscanner survey were so strange that they make you wonder how the hotel staff answered. It would be impossible for any hotel to make some of these complaining guests happy. The complaints about food were very strange. One guest asked for 16 cucumbers a day. Another requested only the right leg of a chicken. The staff wondered if the left leg didn’t taste as nice as the right leg. One guest asked for something not normally on the menu—crocodile soup. Other complaints were totally crazy. A man at a luxury hotel in London complained that his room did not have a sea view. The nearest beach to London is about 75 kilometers away. Other guests wanted the toilet filled with mineral water, a bath full of honey and a discount because his girlfriend snored（打呼噜）.

【解析】本文是应用文，文章主要讲述美国运通金卡的用处。
21. 细节理解题。根据第一段“The American Express Gold card earns tons of valuable Amex travel points on practically all the food-related purchases you’re making even when you’re not traveling”（张美国运通金卡可以挣到许多值钱的美国交通运输的旅行积分，这些积分可以用于即使你不在旅行的时候的实际的所有你在做的食物相关的购买，）可知，这张卡和食物购买有联系。故选D。
22. 细节理解题。根据Highlights: “First, with the Amex Gold, you’ll earn 4 points for every dollar you spend on restaurants worldwide, and on up to $25,000 in annual purchases at U. S. supermarkets（1 point per dollar afterwards）. ”（首先，有了美国运通金牌，你在世界各地的餐厅每消费1美元就能获得4分，在美国超市每年消费可获得25,000美元（之后每消费1美元可获得1分）。）可知，在超市一年花费26600美元的话，2万5千美元内的是1美元获得4分积分，剩余的是1美元1分积分，即25000*4+1600*1=101600分积分。故选C.
23. 细节理解题，根据最后一段“You can redeem（兑取现金）them directly for flights via Amex Travel at 1 cent each, but if you put in some extra effort and research, you can potentially get much more value from them by transferring them to any of Amex’s 21 airline and hotel partners, which include Delta Air Lines, JetBlue, Marriott and many more. ”（你可以通过美国运通旅游直接兑换1关分的机票，但如果你付出额外的努力和研究，你可以通过将它们转移到关国运通21家航空公司和酒店合作伙伴中的任何一家，从中获得更多的价值，这些合作伙伴包括达美航空（delta air lines）、捷蓝航空（jetblue）、万豪（marriott）等等。）可知，用这张金卡上的积分可以购买它们合作公司的航空服务和宾馆服务。故选B。

25. 细节理解题。由第三段“Patients must be financially secure and be able to afford transportation. What’s more, they must find accommodations near their transplant hospital: Kaufman runs two housing locations, which allows the patients to remain close to their transplant hospital during the period of their aftercare, typically about three months at no cost. ”（患者必须有经济保障，并且能够负担得起交通费用。更重要的是，他们必须在移植医院附近找到住处：考夫曼经营着两个住宿地点，这使得患者在后期护理期间可以留在移植医院附近，通常大约三个月是免费的。）可知，病人必须在医院附近有房子、有经济保障、能负担起交通才能进医院治疗，只有B项没提到。故选B项，
26. 猜测词意题. 根据上下文句意，wipe out是“消灭，摧毁”的意思，结合下文句意，故选A项。
27. 主旨大意題。由尾段“To date, Ava’s Heart has helped nearly 90 families with burial costs for their loved ones whose organs have saved countless lives. Kaufman also works closely with those who receive donations to build relationships with donor families and spread awareness about the importance of organ donation. ”（今为止，Ava’s Heart已经帮助了近90个家庭，为他们的亲人支付了丧葬费用，他们的器官挽救了无数生命。考夫曼还与接受捐赠的人密切合作，与捐赠者家庭建立关系，并传播对器官捐赠重要性的认识。）并联系全文可知，Kaufman她获得保佑，获得了别人捐赠的器官而重获新生，之后有爱心、懂得感恩，去帮助别人，所以本文的中心思想是“被保佑祝福的人有奉献的心”。故选C项。

American Express Gold: Best “non-travel” travel card
Why it’s great in one sentence: The American Express Gold card earns tons of valuable Amex travel points on practically all the food-related purchases you’re making even when you’re not traveling, and the credits available on the card nearly offset（抵消）its annual fee.
This card is right for: People who can use all of the card’s various credits and who spend significant money at restaurants, on food delivery services or at U. S. supermarkets while they’re not on the road.
Highlights:
First, with the Amex Gold, you’ll eam 4 points for every dollar you spend on restaurants worldwide, and on up to $25,000 in annual purchases ar U. S. supermarkets（I point per dollar afterwards）. Most food delivery services count as “restaurants” on this card, so that means the vast majority of your food purchases will earn 4 points, regardless of how you’re eating.
You’ll also earn 3 points per dollar when you book airfare directly with an airline, so if you’re looking to jump on any sales for flights later in the year, you can pay for them with the Amex Gold and earn extra points on those as well.
The points earned on this card are American Express Membership Rewards points, which are extremely useful. You can redeem（兑取现金）them directly for flights via Amex Travel at I cent each, but if you put in some extra effort and research, you can potentially get much more value from them by transferring them to any of Amex’s 21 airline ang and hotel partners, which include Delta Air Lines, JetBlue, Marriott and many more.
21. Which is true about the American Express Gold card
A. It requires much annual fee. B. It is suitable for restaurant owners.
C. It focuses on supermarket services. D. It is closely linked with food purchases.
22. If you spend S 26,600 annually at U. S. supermarkets, how many points will you earn
A. 100,000. B. 106,400. C. 101,600. D. 100,800.
23. What can you do with these points on this card
A. Change them into money for daily use. B. Buy services in recommended airlines.
C. Take certain airlines for free. D. Use them to do research into airlines.

“Twelve years ago, I was a professional dancer and black belt in taekwondo（跆拳道）when a disease went undiagnosed and wiped out my muscular system. I finally ended up on life support in intensive care with organ failure. “Kaufman recalled,” I went from living this big life to not knowing how I was going to survive. Fortunately, on my birthday in 2009, I received a new heart and was given a second chance at life!”
After volunteering in Los Angeles hospitals, Kaufman started the non-profit, Ava’s Heart. She and her organization offered transplant patients services that were often not covered by insurance, including food, gas, co-pays on medicines, and housing.
“What I found out was that if you didn’t have post-transplant-housing, you couldn’t get listed and admitted into the hospital, “Kaufman said. She learned that for the nearly 110,000 people in the US waiting for a lifesaving organ transplant, it was not just a matter of adding your name to the list. Patients must be financially secure and be able to afford transportation. What’s more, they must find accommodations near their transplant hospital: Kaufman runs two housing locations, which allows the patients to remain close to their transplant hospital during the period of their aftercare, typically about three months at no cost.
Her organization also helps donor families, which she thinks makes the whole cirele complete. “One organ donor can save eight lives and then there’s tissue and skin and eyes and blood vessels（血管）and so many other things,” Kaufman said. “The donor is the whole story. Without the donor, there are no transplant centers, no transplant surgeons, no me. In my eyes, the donors are the heroes. ”
To date, Ava’s Heart has helped nearly 90 families with burial costs for their loved ones whose organs have saved countless lives. Kaufman also works closely with those who receive donations to build relationships with donor families and spread awareness about the importance of organ donation.
24. What is the purpose of Kaufman’s mentioning her memory in the beginning
A. To hint her motivation for paying it forward. B. To illustrate life is unpredictable.
C. To recall her sufferings from a disease. D. To show her enthusiasm for dance and taekwondo.
25. For a transplant patient, admission into the hospital requires the following EXCEPT ______.
A. convenient housing B. health insurance C. financial safety D. transportation expenses
26. What is the meaning of the underlined words “wiped out” in the first paragraph
A. destroyed B. improved C. weakened D. enhanced
27. What message does the text mainly convey
A. One good turn deserves another. B. Health counts more for every individual.
C. The blessed bear the heart of giving. D. Donors are the whole story for transplant.

Combining knowledge of chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering, scientists from McGill. University develop a biomaterial tough enough to repair the heart, muscles, and voeal cords. representing a major advance in medicine.
“People recovering from heart damage often face a long and tricky journey. Healing is challenging because of the constant movement tissues must withstand（承受）as the heart beats. The same is true for vocal cords. Until now there was no injectable（可注射的）material strong enough for the job，” says Guangyu Bao, a PhD candidate in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at McGill University.
The team, led by Professor Luc Mongeau and Assistant Professor Jianyu Li, developed a new injectable hydrogel（水凝胶）for wound repair, which is a type of biomaterial that provides room for cells to live and grow. Once injected into the body, the biomaterial forms a stable structure allowing live cells to grow or pass through to repair the injured organs.
“The results are promising, and we hope that one day the new hydrogel will be used to restore the voice of people with damaged vocal cords,” says Guangyu Bao.
The scientists tested the durability of their hydrogel in a machine they developed to copy the extreme biomechanics of human vocal cords. Vibrating（振动）at 120 times a second for over 6 million cycles, the new biomaterial remained undamaged while other standard hydrogels broken into pieces, unable to deal with the stress of the load.
“We were incredibly excited to see it worked perfectly in our test. Before our work, no injectable hydrogels possessed both high porosity（多孔性，疏松）and toughness at the same time. To solve this issue, we introduced a pore-forming polymer to our formula（配方），” says Guangyu Bao.
The innovation opens new ways of making progress for other applications like tissue engineering. The team is also looking to use the hydrogel technology to create lungs to test COVID-19 drugs.
28. What did the researchers develop the new biomaterial for
A. To experience a tricky joumey. B. To substitute damaged organs.
C. To advance the progress of medicine. D. To repair the injured organs.
29. What is special about the biomaterial compared to other materials
A. It is heavier but advanced. B. It is injectable and strong.
C. It is more expensive. D. It is easier to break.
30. What might the researchers do about the biomaterial
A. Use it to cure COVID-19. B. Increase its toughness for repairing lungs.
C. Invent artificial organs for drug test. D. Improve its formula further.
31. What does the author intend to do by writing this passage
A. To introduce a newly-developed material. B. To stress the importance of innovation.
C. To promote the sales of a new hydrogel. D. To show his respect to the researchers.
D
Human is struggling to contain two major crises: Skyrocketing global temperatures and deep-diving biodiversity（生物多样性多）. But people tend to solve each problem on its own, for instance by using green energies and carbon-cating machines, while surrounding ecosystems to preserve them. But a new report argues that treating each crisis in isolation（孤立地）means missing out on solutions that resolve both. Human can’t solve one without also solving the other.
So what might these solutions look like Say, for instance, you tum a heavily logged forest into a national park. As the trees grow back, they would provide habitat for the returm of animals . Letting a forest come back naturally, rather than planting a single species of tree to balance up some corporation’s carbon emissions（排放）, makes it recover faster. This is known as a nature-based solution, a campaign that both absorb carbon and provides an extra ecological or economic benefit.
Stopping human’s attacks on ecosystems can also help fight climate change, the study’s authors write. Even cities can get in on the action, the report notes. Urban areas turn into “heat islands” because they absorb the sun’s energy during the day and slowly release it at night. They are therefore much hotter than surrounding rural areas. Planting more trees cools cities and provides habitats for birds and shade for humans, which will be even more critical as global temperatures rise.
The big threat, the authors stress, is that nature-based solutions alone can’t stop climate change. As temperatures climb and droughts get more severe, it’ll be harder for forests, wetlands, and mangroves to survive, even with our help. First and foremost, human has to dramatically reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. “Nature is not going to save us. ” the authors say. “We can only use nature to support efforts. ”
“Still, governments and corporations are becoming more conscious of the importance of maintaining biodiversity while also fighting climate change,” says Beymer-Farris, from the University of Kentucky. “I, myself, as a professor who has been working in this for 20 years, I see a lot of prospects, because I see a lot of change on the horizon. ”
32. How should we humans tackle the two crises based on the new research
A. Applying carbon-eating machines. B. Attaching more importance to one of them.
C. Solving them in isolated ways. D. Coping with them in the meanwhile.
33. What figure of speech does the underlined sentence use in the third paragraph
A. Simile. B. Metaphor. C. personification. D. Irony.
34. What is Beymer-Farris’s attitude to the future of the ecology”
A. Negative. B. Skeptical. C. Ambiguous. D. Positive.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. How to fight climate change and protect species. B. New ways to live harmoniously with nature.
C. Reasons for urban areas becoming “heat islands”. D. Two major crises facing humans.

Some people get well caught up with their daily responsibilities. So they don’t consider whether the level of anxiety they feel is proportional（成比例的）to whatever situation they’re worried about.

Accept uncomfortable feelings

Get up and move
It’s common to feel like your body is filled with extra energy when you’re anxious. That can create cognitive（认知的）disagreement. If you’re feeling restless, go for a walk around. 39 .
Seek help
If you’ve tried various relaxation techniques and still aren’t able to shake continuous anxiety, it may be time to seek help. Talk to trusted friends, relatives and spiritual leaders. 40 . Many employers have such programs to put you in touch with the right mental health professional.

C. Learn to say no to the uncomfortable feelings
D. Even a small amount of exercise can improve your mood.

It was dark and freezing cold outside though it was four o’clock in the afternoon. The wind kept blowing. At that time, the bell rang loudly, and everybody packed their schoolbags and got ready to go home. The teacher dismissed the students, and they walked orderly to the school gate.
David was in Class One, Grade Seven. His mother would come and pick him up from school but today she was absent. David wondered what had happened, but he was not worried at all. It usually took only ten minutes for his mother to get to school by riding an electric bike. David saw his best companion, Tommy, who was his deskmate. Tommy was waiting patiently for his mother as well. They began to talk freely and happily. David congratulated Tommy on his excellent performance in the last math exam. Five minutes later. Tommy’s mother picked up Tommy and they said goodbye to each other.
David had to put up with moments of solitude（孤独）. He had no choice but to wait until his mother came into his sight. However, half an hour passed, and there was no sign that his mother would come. David was determined to walk home.
On his way home, David could hardly see any passers-by. The trees shook with the wind and the leaves fell from them without making any noise. David was lost in thinking what was wrong with his mother. Some terrible thoughts jumped out of his mind. “Maybe an accident happened to her. Maybe she got hurt by some robbers. Maybe she was seriously ill. ” Little David burst into tears and quickened his step. He did not dare to think over the results. What he could do was pray for the safety of his mother and wish everything was all right.
Time slipped away like an arrow. In the short distance, it was his beautiful house with a garden. “This must be the worst experience in my life,” David thought to himself and felt scared.

Dear Mr. Davis
I am Li Hua, an exchange student from China. I’m writing to apply to you for an idea that we should set up a Traditional Chinese Painting Club in our school.
As far as I know, many students in our school are very interested in traditional Chinese painting, so it is a good idea to start one. What’s more, I also believe this club will offer an excellent opportunity for students to learn different cultures and make more friends.
I’d appreciate it if you could take my application into consideration.
Yours sincerely.
Li Hua

Paragraph 1:
David stood in front of the door and opened it hurriedly. He turned on the lights without hesitation. Everything was in order. The floor was clean. The sofa was neat. It seemed nothing special. David pushed all the doors and was eager to look for his mother. Still, he couldn’t find her anywhere. There was no doubt that his mother was not at home right now. It was hard for him to control his nervous emotion. He ran to the telephone and began to make a phone call to his mother.
Paragraph 2:
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door and came a familiar voice. It was his mother. He hurried to the door and opened it excitedly with a tremendous sense of relief. His mother wore a big smile, saying, “I just want you to be independent. And I followed you along the way. You made it. I am proud of you. ” David hugged his mother tightly, making a promise that he would never worry her and he would become brave and spare no effort to maintain independence.

W: A travel website conducted a survey on hotel complaints and found some unusual things. The site surveyed 400 hotel staff in 39 countries. It asked about the strangest things guests had asked for or complained about. Staff said that most of the unusual complaints were about food. Other requests were about rooms. Not every hotel room is to everybody’s taste, but the complaints in the Skyscanner survey were so strange that they make you wonder how the hotel staff answered. It would be impossible for any hotel to make some of these complaining guests happy. The complaints about food were very strange. One guest asked for 16 cucumbers a day. Another requested only the right leg of a chicken. The staff wondered if the left leg didn’t taste as nice as the right leg. One guest asked for something not normally on the menu—crocodile soup. Other complaints were totally crazy. A man at a luxury hotel in London complained that his room did not have a sea view. The nearest beach to London is about 75 kilometers away. Other guests wanted the toilet filled with mineral water, a bath full of honey and a discount because his girlfriend snored（打呼噜）.

25. 细节理解题。由第三段“Patients must be financially secure and be able to afford transportation. What’s more, they must find accommodations near their transplant hospital: Kaufman runs two housing locations, which allows the patients to remain close to their transplant hospital during the period of their aftercare, typically about three months at no cost. ”（患者必须有经济保障，并且能够负担得起交通费用。更重要的是，他们必须在移植医院附近找到住处：考夫曼经营着两个住宿地点，这使得患者在后期护理期间可以留在移植医院附近，通常大约三个月是免费的。）可知，病人必须在医院附近有房子、有经济保障、能负担起交通才能进医院治疗，只有B项没提到。故选B项，
