Modern Cities on Ancient Ruins
All around the world, some cities were built on top of ancient ruins. The presence of ancient ruins in a city not only adds reputation but also increases the economy. Here are four modern cities built on ancient ruins.
Seoul, South Korea
Seoul is currently the largest city in South Korea, whose history goes back almost 2000 years. While Seoul is considered a very modern city, the ancient city wall can still be found in its very center. The wall, which was built to protect the city from enemies, dates back to the early 1300s.
Kyoto, Japan
Kyoto is known as one of Japan's oldest and most historically significant cities. It is believed that Kyoto was founded around 794 A. D. and was the capital of Japan until 1868. For a thousand years, the city remained faithful to its roots and became famous for its classical Buddhist temples, gardens, and royal palaces.
Mexico City, Mexico
The Nahua Aztec established Mexico City around 1325 and it became the capital of an advanced growing empire. Temple Tempo Mayor is one of the last surviving ruins dating back to the pre-Columbian Aztec empire. Making handmade products in ancient ways attracts visitors there.
Luxor, Egypt
Luxor is a modern city located on the east bank of the Nile River in southern Egypt. During the 16-14 centuries B. C. , this city was called Thebes. Large temples, royal tombs, and the Valley of the Kings are located around this area in Egypt.

During his second year in college, Ben took a few business classes. They got his head spinning with ideas to start his own business. He started by thinking about things he liked. First, it was clothing. Then coffee. He thought about opening up a coffee shop. But both ideas seemed too hard and costly.
Some might give up right there and keep going about their regular life. But Ben is different. He kept thinking and came up with the idea of selling his own brand of coffee. He felt like there was potential to do this without too much money or risk. He didn't give up. So he took to the Internet and started doing research. He eventually found a coffee bean supplier. He learned about all of the legal affairs of starting a business. It all seemed daunting（令人气馁的）but he stuck to it.
After setting up his business and starting to order coffee he began testing different versions with his friends and family. He got feedback and improved his product. He appropriately named his company Clouds Coffee Company. He had a little bit of savings from his birthdays but that was far away from starting a business. So, he traded with an advertising designer to help him with his naming, logo, product pictures, photography, and website design. In return, he would supply him with coffee in exchange for his design talent!"
Ben received great support from his tutor, Clyde Rucker, a very successful businessman and best friend of his grandparents. Many others in the community supported Ben in his earliest day, trying to help him succeed at such a young age. They were inspired by his activeness and energy. And his good coffee!
Ben Cloud is a fantastic example of a young person struggling to become the best version of himself.

26. Which words can best describe Ben
A. Intelligent and fully-developed. B. Ambitious and strong-minded.

Job interviews are rarely fun, especially when you are young, about which I have deep feelings. I will never forget the opening question in my first interview for the Financial Times:"So, apart from the week before your interview, do you ever actually read the FT "
Young jobseekers today face a different but no less difficult challenge. They find themselves smiling anxiously into their laptop cameras, answering questions as a timer ticks down with no human to interact with at all, which is equally boring.
Large employers are using these "asynchronous（异步的） video interviews" （AVIs）to narrow down job applicants to a smaller pool they can meet in person. Platforms such as HireVue and Modern Hire record applicants answering pre-determined questions, usually with a time limit for each answer. In some cases, the recordings will be watched by the employer's hiring managers. In others, the platform's algorithms（算法） will assess the candidates based on what they said or even their facial expressions.
These interviews can be done cheaply and massively; one grocery chain in the US was gathering as many as 15, 000 per day during the pandemic, according to HireVue. The platforms say the process is fairer than human recruiters（招聘人员）, leading to better and more diverse candidates making the cut.
But employers need to pay more attention to how the process affects potential employees. Researchers at the University of Sussex Business School, in association with the Institute for Employment Studies, have warned that young jobseekers feel confused and exhausted by automated recruitment systems.
Employers suffer the loss too. AVIs select for people who can talk into air, not people who can interact well with others, though the latter is more important in most jobs. What's more, an interview is a company's first real interaction with potential employees, some of whom it will want to hire. It should be a chance for both sides to learn about each other.
28. Why does the author mention his first job interview experience
A. To make young jobseekers confident.
B. To show the boredom of job interviews.
C. To indicate the difficulty in job seeking.
D. To prove that he was superior to others.
29. What's paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The use of AVs. B. The advantages of AVIs.
C. Introduction to brand platforms. D. Roles of AVIs and hiring managers.
30. What does the underlined phrase "making the cut" in paragraph 4 mean
A. Going backdoor. B. Spending less. C. Being chosen. D. Being interviewed.
31. What's the author's attitude towards AVIs
A. Disgusted. B. Tolerant. C. Supportive. D. Cautious.
D
There's nothing better than a walk in the countryside for refreshing ourselves. Connecting with wooded nature has been proven to help our mental and physical health. For some, the best thing is to wander through a forest, but as we admire the trees that surround us, it's worth knowing these trees are doing more than just being nice things to look at.
We're also aware of trees' functions of improving environment—they produce oxygen and clean the air we breathe by absorbing about a quarter of all human-caused carbon dioxide emissions（排放）. Deforestation isn't helping with this, which is why so many people want to save them. But there's more to these impressive forms of plants than we might think. Researchers have discovered evidence that proves they are actually intelligent.
It's thought that trees talk and share resources right under our feet, using a fungal（真菌的） network. Under the ground are tree roots, and mixed among them, along with bacteria, are thousands of superfine threads of fungi, known as hyphae. And research has shown that they are all interconnected. They can help each other by sharing nutrients, and they can even warn of approaching dangers. Scientists say it's like the trees are talking to one another.
Ecologist Suzanne Simard has called this network the Wood Wide Web. She discovered that parent trees use this network to help their seedlings（幼苗）. "We found that the parent trees would favour their own seedlings versus the strangers, by sending them more nutrients, "she spoke to the BBC. She also found that trees are smart enough to change their behaviour and have managed to adapt and survive in a changing environment.
So it seems trees really are the stars of our natural world, and with a huge number of them on our planet, it's time to show them some respect if we want them to boom.
32. In what aspects do trees benefit us according to the text
A. Intelligence and education. B. Health and environment.
C. Working and living conditions. D. Tourism and construction.
33. What plays a key role in trees' communication
A. Interconnection of fungi threads. B. Waving of tree leaves.
C. Mixing of roots. D. Combination of bacteria.
34. What can we know about parent trees according to Suzanne Simard
A. They send nutrients to their own seedlings only.
B. They help their seedlings to compete with others.
C. They also feed seedlings that are not their own.
D. They build the network to raise the young all day.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Stars of Our Planet B. Unknown Benefits of Trees
C. Survival of the Fittest D. Lovely Smart Trees

Peloton

Sacha Jafri is a 44—year—old artist from England. He decided to create the world's largest painting. He asked children to send him pictures showing their true feelings, and he got artwork electronically submitted by children from over 140 countries.
Using the children's ideas as a starting point, he started to paint at the beginning of March last year. He tried to keep the ideas from the children's pictures in his mind. He even included the children's drawings in the artwork.
Jafri used a huge ballroom in a fancy hotel to do this. He worked long hours— often up to 20 hours a day. He hurt his back by bending over so much while he painted so that he had to put it aside and have a rest for some days in July. It took seven months, over 1 ,000 paintbrushes and 1 ,664 gallons of paint to create the painting which is over 1,600 square meters. He set a Guinness World Record for the world's largest painting—roughly the size of four basketball courts.
The artwork called The Journey of Humanity is about connection between people. Jafri hopes that no matter what difficulties people meet, it will help bring the world together and unite as one to fight against them. Since Jafri's goal was to raise money to help children, he planned to cut it up into smaller sections, so he could sell them for charity.
Jafri hoped that by selling the sections separately, he could raise $ 30 million. But when the auction (拍卖)ended on March 22, 2021, Jafri did much better than that. And he didn't have to split up the pieces. The whole artwork was sold for $62 million. That's the fourth highest price ever paid for a painting by a living artist. The buyer plans to build a special building to show the artwork off and let more people appreciate it.
4. Why did Jafri ask the kids from different countries for their pictures
A. To sell them to raise money for his painting.
B. To collect their ideas to be used in his painting.
C. To make his painting the world's largest one
D. To show the worldwide influence of his painting.
5. When did Jafri finish his painting
A. Last July. B. Last August.
C. Last September. D. In March ,2021.
6. What is the theme of Jafri's The Journey of Humanity
A. The protection of children.
B. The development of charity.
C. The appreciation of different arts.
D. The partnership between people.
7. How did Jafri feel about the outcome of the auction about his painting
A. It's unexpected. B. It's doubtful. C. It's discouraging. D. It's worrying.

Many kinds of birds migrate (迁徙) north in the spring and south in the fall, with most flying at night, looking for food and better conditions. But many birds die along the way. Some of these deaths are the result of human actions, such as hunting, or clearing huge areas of land that used to be used by migrating birds. Most importantly, experts say that as many as one billion birds may die every year in the US alone as a result of flying into buildings. Other tall structures, such as power lines and cell towers also lead to many bird deaths.
Now people in Philadelphia are working to remove at least one of the ways that migrating birds die. Birds can get disoriented by the lights and glass of buildings along their migration paths, causing them to strike buildings or windows. Buildings are a special challenge for migrating birds. The windows can reflect things like the sky or tree branches, causing birds to fly directly into the glass. Many birds migrate at night. Bright city lights add another layer of difficulty, confusing birds that might normally be guided by the stars.
Now the city has begun a program called Lights Out Philly, which requires building owners and people who live in the area to turn off all outside lights that aren’t needed between midnight and 6 in the morning. So far, the majority of the public have been taking part, including the city’s best-known and tallest buildings: One and Two Liberty Place, the Comcast towers, and the BNY Mellon Center. “We want to be part of the program in preserving the bird population,” they said.
Twice a year (from April 1 to May 31, and from August 15 to November 15), the lights on many of the city’s buildings are turned off.
8. What does paragraph 1 center on about migrating birds
A. The dangers they face.
B. The processes they experience.
C. The directions they take.
D. The barriers they overcome.
9. Which can replace the underlined word “disoriented” in paragraph 2
A. Tired. B. Blind. C. Angry. D. Lost.
10. What is most people’s attitude to the program
A. Tolerant. B. Positive. C. Disapproving. D. Ambiguous.
11. What is the suitable title for the text
A. Birds Meet Dangers While Migrating
B. Migrations Lead to Mass die-offs of Birds
C. Philadelphia Goes Dark to Protect Birds
D. Birds Migrate to Look for Better Conditions
D
In 2016, Japanese scientists found a kind of bacteria, which they called Ideonella sakainesis, could “eat” plastic.
The secret for Ideonella sakainesis is enzymes (酶) used by bacteria and other cells to make chemical changes happen. It uses two enzymes to turn plastic into something it can eat. What's left over afterward could be used to make new plastic. One of them, called “PETase”, is the one that breaks down the plastic. Recently, scientists have figured out a way to make the bacteria eat plastic even faster. They did some chemical work with the enzyme PETase. They thought what they did would make it eat plastic even slower. However, they were surprised to find that the change made it eat 20% faster.
This is an important step, but it will still be a while before we will know if Ideonella sakainesis can really make a difference. Everything has to be just right for it to do its work. It can't be too hot or too cold. The scientists say they'll keep exploring to make it work in all kinds of conditions. Besides, it only eats one kind of plastic called PET, which is usually used for making bottles. But scientists think it is possible that there may be other kinds of bacteria that eat other kinds of plastic. They think that even if these bacteria don't already exist, they may come along soon. Bacteria can change their habits quickly, compared to bigger life forms.
Most plastic can already be recycled, and this is really just a new way to recycle it. However, as scientists warn seriously, Ideonella sakainesis' new function does not change the fact that only about 9% of plastics actually get recycled, while the rest get thrown away. They also point out that harmful chemicals are added when plastic is made. If bacteria break down plastic in natural areas, those poisons will be given off, and could affect plants, animals, or humans.
12. How did the scientists find the fact that the bacteria eat plastic faster
A. They made changes to PETase.
B. They added more PETase to plastic.
C. They mixed plastic's two enzymes.
D. They removed enzymes from plastic.
13. What do we know about Ideonella sakainesis from paragraph 3
A. It breaks down some special kinds of plastic.
B. It eats plastic under demanding conditions.
C. It stops other bacteria possessing PETase.
D. It produces enzymes when eating plastic.
14. What do the scientists convey about plastic recycling in the last paragraph
A. They are confident to do it. B. It's hard to recycle plastic.
C. Its situation worries them. D. It has been well done so far.
15. What's the author's purpose in writing the text
A. To advocate recycling plastic.
B. To praise scientists' hard work.
C. To show severe plastic pollution.
D. To introduce a new discovery.

In the last few years, companies like oBike have begun flooding streets in places like Japan and Australia with bikes. Businessman Mike Than Tun Win realized these bikes could do much good for schoolchildren in Myanmar, of whom some walk an hour or more every day to school. Then he created LessWalk which buys up the bikes from other countries.
LessWalk modifies （改装）bikes to make them more useful for students. The rental bikes used to require a smartphone app to unlock them. LessWalk changed this for a lock with a key. They also added a second seat in the back of the bikes, allowing two children to ride to school on one bike.
Recently they're replacing the bike's regular tires with a solid tire that can't go flat. With all the changes, each bike packed attractively costs LessWalk about $35. “ Despite the cost, the benefits it can develop are well worth trying.” Than told TechCrunch.
The project bought thousands of rental bikes from failed companies and shipped them to Myanmar. The process wasn't as easy as it sounds—there was lots of paperwork concerned in moving the bikes from one country to another. But giving out the bikes takes a little longer given that LessWalk wants to make sure that the bikes go, for free, to the students who need them the most and Myanmar has a population of over 50 million people and more than nine million students. The project is working with Myanmar's government and school systems to focus on poor students walking long distances a day to school.
Than hopes to bring in as many as 100, 000 bikes and expand the program to other countries like Laos and Cambodia. Than is also hopeful that he can inspire " global friends" to follow him to put the abandoned bikes to work, instead of creating yet more urban waste.
24. How many modifications does LessWalk do to the bikes
A. 2. B. 3. C. 4. D. 5.
25. Why does it take longer to donate the recycled bikes
A. Shipping the bikes is so difficult. B. There're too many poor students.
C. The bikes need packing carefully. D. Targeted bike donation is needed.
26. Which can best describe Than Tun Win as the leader of the project
A. Ambitious. B. Encouraged. C. Well-experienced. D. Nature-loving.
27. What can be a suitable tide for the text
A. Removal of Urban Rubbish B. Recycle of Donated Bikes
C. Benefits beyond the Cost D. Students* New Vehicles
C
There's a well-known story in the world of literary translators about the translator who was thrilled to see his work appear at great length in an article in a popular magazine. He had translated many novels by a little-known Scandinavian novelist, who he believed had been ignored and not received the attention or praise the novelist deserved. He had devoted much time to trying to get this novelist some recognition. The article agreed with his assessment of the novelist’s works mentioning long passages from his translations.
But something was missing. The translator searched in vain for a mention of his name. It didn't appear anywhere. The translator's joy at the coverage （报道）of the author he liked was considerably ruined by this. He felt that he himself should have had some recognition in the article.
It was as if the translator did not exist, and all the efforts he had made had never happened.
Most people would agree that it was wrong of the magazine not to mention the translator.
However, it is also true that most readers themselves operate in exactly the same way, and for them it is also as if the translator didn't exist. When people read a translation of a novel, they want to feel they are reading what the novelist, and not someone else, wrote. They don't want to be reminded that they are not reading, and would not be able to read, the original novel created by the novelist, not wishing to know who the translator was or pay any attention to what they have done.
In this global age, more and more works of fiction are being translated into more and more languages. Readers are now able to experience and understand other cultures more than ever through the reading of translated novels. So the works of more and more novelists can reach people in other parts of the world. This applies not only to new novels but also to fresh translations of old classics.
28. What can we know about the translator in Paragraph 1
A. His opinion was shared by the magazine.
B. The novelist's works were his favourite.
C. He often sent articles to the magazine.
D. The novelist got famous with his help.
29. How did the translator feel when he looked closely at the article in the magazine
A. Regretful. B. Proud. C. Upset. D. Skeptical.
30. What is the third paragraph mainly about
A. The contributions of novel translators.
B. The general attitude towards translators.
C. The readers' different tastes in literature.
D. The importance of reading original works.
31. What does the author stress when talking about the global age
A. The shortage of able novel translators.
B. The number of readers of original works.
C. The value of novels in different countries.
D. The variety of fiction available to readers.
D
On 23 June 2016, UK (United Kingdom) adults made a historic decision. More than 33 million people voted for the UK to leave the European Union (EU). In the referendum, the result was that around 52% of them—just over half—voted to leave the group of 28 countries. This is called Brexit made up to describe the MBritish Exit". No country had ever left the EU before, so Brexit was a significant moment in European history.
After UK and EU leaders had lots of hard negotiations about how Brexit would work, on 22 nd, January , 2020, Wednesday, the British Parliament finally approved an agreement about the UK's divorcing the EU, which Queen Elizabeth II agreed to on Thursday. The deal was expected to pass in the European Parliament the next week. If everything went well , the UK would leave the EU on January 31, 2020. It did* The UK finally and officially left the EU at 11 pm on this day, ending a process that began three and a half years before. Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Brexit fans celebrated with fireworks and big parties. For many they called it the UK's Independence Day. For many others in the UK , it represented the final stage of something they fought hard to prevent. Now the deal has been signed and Britain has left, but it doesn't mean the life in Britain will change suddenly. Until 31st December 2020, freedom of movement will continue and this means UK citizens will have the right to live and work in the EU.
Making things even more difficult is the fact that the next challenge of Brexit has arrived. The UK and EU now have almost one year to work out the details of the relationship they will have in the future. Many experts express their common concern that making these new agreements will go through the same experience as the original Brexit deal.
32. What does the underlined word "referendum" in Paragraph 1 mean
A. Explanation. B. Vote. C. Deal. D. Statement.
33. What day was it when the UK left the EU officially
A. Tuesday. B. Wednesday. C. Thursday. D. Friday.
34. What can we say about Brexit
A. It was an extremely difficult process. B. It is a great victory for all UK people.
C. It means a temporary loss for the EU. D. It brings UK people a new life overnight.
35. What is the experts5 attitude towards Brexit's next work
A. Ambiguous. B. Confident. C. Worried. D. Cautious.

解题思路从第一、二段可知，Ben 想创业并积极投入其中，所以他是一个有抱负的人，堪称ambitious;再根据第二段中的"He didn't give up. "和"It all seemed daunting but he stuck to it. "可以推断出 Ben是个意志力很坚定的人，堪称 strong-minded。故选 B。27. A 推理判断题（意图目的）。

【解题思路】根据第一段首句"Job interviews are rarely fun，especially when you are young，about which I have deep feelings. "和第二段尾句"…which is equally boring. "可推知，作者提及自己首次参加面试的经历，考官提问呆板无聊，其实就是实话实说，告诉读者求职面试枯燥无趣，包括下文介绍的 AVIs也如此。故答案选 B。本题不同于一看便知的常见命题所设答案"To introduce the topic"，意在提高考生的应变能力。29. A 段落大意题。

【解题思路】文章讲述了AVIs自动招录系统的利弊，最后一段作者谈到雇主也会有损失，警示不要完全依赖机器，否则会错过一些优秀人才，强调了现场面试的必要性。从全文来看，作者态度可谓不偏不倚，告知读者∶AVIs 有利也有弊，使用须谨慎，因此用cautious 概括作者态度最精准。其他几项都不对;对 AVIs 没有流露出明显的厌恶之情，所以不能用disgusted;没有包容其缺陷之言辞，因此不可用 tolerant;更没有鼓励支持企业使用，当然谈不上supportive。故答案选 D。
D

【解题思路】根据第三段"Under the ground are tree roots，and mixed among them，along with bacteria, are thousands of superfine threads of fungi, known as hyphae. And research has shown that they are all interconnected. "可知，树木通过地下树根交错形成的成千上万根互联菌丝，才可以互相交流，共享营养等。因此，菌丝互联在树木之间的交流中发挥了关键作用。故答案选 A。34. C 推理判断题。
【解题思路】根据第四段生态学家 Suzanne Simard 所言"We found that the parent trees would favour their own seedlings versus of the strangers, by sending them more nutrients, "可推知，相对于陌生幼苗，母树给自己的亲生幼苗提供更多的营养，言下之意也会给非亲生幼苗提供营养。故答案选C。35. D 标题概括题。
解题思路】本文通过讲述树木的作用引出主题，主要揭示了树木之间如何交流互助，共同成长，因此标题用smart 可精准概括出树木的生存智慧，而字里行间也体现出了作者的爱树情感，用lovely 一词则可激发起人们热爱树木，保护生态的意识。故答案为 D。

Modern Cities on Ancient Ruins
All around the world, some cities were built on top of ancient ruins. The presence of ancient ruins in a city not only adds reputation but also increases the economy. Here are four modern cities built on ancient ruins.
Seoul, South Korea
Seoul is currently the largest city in South Korea, whose history goes back almost 2000 years. While Seoul is considered a very modern city, the ancient city wall can still be found in its very center. The wall, which was built to protect the city from enemies, dates back to the early 1300s.
Kyoto, Japan
Kyoto is known as one of Japan's oldest and most historically significant cities. It is believed that Kyoto was founded around 794 A. D. and was the capital of Japan until 1868. For a thousand years, the city remained faithful to its roots and became famous for its classical Buddhist temples, gardens, and royal palaces.
Mexico City, Mexico
The Nahua Aztec established Mexico City around 1325 and it became the capital of an advanced growing empire. Temple Tempo Mayor is one of the last surviving ruins dating back to the pre-Columbian Aztec empire. Making handmade products in ancient ways attracts visitors there.
Luxor, Egypt

During his second year in college, Ben took a few business classes. They got his head spinning with ideas to start his own business. He started by thinking about things he liked. First, it was clothing. Then coffee. He thought about opening up a coffee shop. But both ideas seemed too hard and costly.
Some might give up right there and keep going about their regular life. But Ben is different. He kept thinking and came up with the idea of selling his own brand of coffee. He felt like there was potential to do this without too much money or risk. He didn't give up. So he took to the Internet and started doing research. He eventually found a coffee bean supplier. He learned about all of the legal affairs of starting a business. It all seemed daunting（令人气馁的）but he stuck to it.
After setting up his business and starting to order coffee he began testing different versions with his friends and family. He got feedback and improved his product. He appropriately named his company Clouds Coffee Company. He had a little bit of savings from his birthdays but that was far away from starting a business. So, he traded with an advertising designer to help him with his naming, logo, product pictures, photography, and website design. In return, he would supply him with coffee in exchange for his design talent!"
Ben received great support from his tutor, Clyde Rucker, a very successful businessman and best friend of his grandparents. Many others in the community supported Ben in his earliest day, trying to help him succeed at such a young age. They were inspired by his activeness and energy. And his good coffee!
Ben Cloud is a fantastic example of a young person struggling to become the best version of himself.

26. Which words can best describe Ben
A. Intelligent and fully-developed. B. Ambitious and strong-minded.
C. Helpful and warm-hearted. D. Energetic and self-centered.
27. What message does the author intend to convey in the text

C
Job interviews are rarely fun, especially when you are young, about which I have deep feelings. I will never forget the opening question in my first interview for the Financial Times:"So, apart from the week before your interview, do you ever actually read the FT "
Young jobseekers today face a different but no less difficult challenge. They find themselves smiling anxiously into their laptop cameras, answering questions as a timer ticks down with no human to interact with at all, which is equally boring.
Large employers are using these "asynchronous（异步的） video interviews" （AVIs）to narrow down job applicants to a smaller pool they can meet in person. Platforms such as HireVue and Modern Hire record applicants answering pre-determined questions, usually with a time limit for each answer. In some cases, the recordings will be watched by the employer's hiring managers. In others, the platform's algorithms（算法） will assess the candidates based on what they said or even their facial expressions.
These interviews can be done cheaply and massively; one grocery chain in the US was gathering as many as 15, 000 per day during the pandemic, according to HireVue. The platforms say the process is fairer than human recruiters（招聘人员）, leading to better and more diverse candidates making the cut.
But employers need to pay more attention to how the process affects potential employees. Researchers at the University of Sussex Business School, in association with the Institute for Employment Studies, have warned that young jobseekers feel confused and exhausted by automated recruitment systems.
Employers suffer the loss too. AVIs select for people who can talk into air, not people who can interact well with others, though the latter is more important in most jobs. What's more, an interview is a company's first real interaction with potential employees, some of whom it will want to hire. It should be a chance for both sides to learn about each other.
28. Why does the author mention his first job interview experience
A. To make young jobseekers confident.
B. To show the boredom of job interviews.
C. To indicate the difficulty in job seeking.
D. To prove that he was superior to others.
29. What's paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The use of AVs. B. The advantages of AVIs.
C. Introduction to brand platforms. D. Roles of AVIs and hiring managers.
30. What does the underlined phrase "making the cut" in paragraph 4 mean
A. Going backdoor. B. Spending less. C. Being chosen. D. Being interviewed.
31. What's the author's attitude towards AVIs
A. Disgusted. B. Tolerant. C. Supportive. D. Cautious.
D
There's nothing better than a walk in the countryside for refreshing ourselves. Connecting with wooded nature has been proven to help our mental and physical health. For some, the best thing is to wander through a forest, but as we admire the trees that surround us, it's worth knowing these trees are doing more than just being nice things to look at.
We're also aware of trees' functions of improving environment—they produce oxygen and clean the air we breathe by absorbing about a quarter of all human-caused carbon dioxide emissions（排放）. Deforestation isn't helping with this, which is why so many people want to save them. But there's more to these impressive forms of plants than we might think. Researchers have discovered evidence that proves they are actually intelligent.
It's thought that trees talk and share resources right under our feet, using a fungal（真菌的） network. Under the ground are tree roots, and mixed among them, along with bacteria, are thousands of superfine threads of fungi, known as hyphae. And research has shown that they are all interconnected. They can help each other by sharing nutrients, and they can even warn of approaching dangers. Scientists say it's like the trees are talking to one another.
Ecologist Suzanne Simard has called this network the Wood Wide Web. She discovered that parent trees use this network to help their seedlings（幼苗）. "We found that the parent trees would favour their own seedlings versus the strangers, by sending them more nutrients, "she spoke to the BBC. She also found that trees are smart enough to change their behaviour and have managed to adapt and survive in a changing environment.
So it seems trees really are the stars of our natural world, and with a huge number of them on our planet, it's time to show them some respect if we want them to boom.
32. In what aspects do trees benefit us according to the text
A. Intelligence and education. B. Health and environment.
C. Working and living conditions. D. Tourism and construction.
33. What plays a key role in trees' communication
A. Interconnection of fungi threads. B. Waving of tree leaves.
C. Mixing of roots. D. Combination of bacteria.
34. What can we know about parent trees according to Suzanne Simard
A. They send nutrients to their own seedlings only.
B. They help their seedlings to compete with others.
C. They also feed seedlings that are not their own.
D. They build the network to raise the young all day.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Stars of Our Planet B. Unknown Benefits of Trees
C. Survival of the Fittest D. Lovely Smart Trees

Sacha Jafri is a 44—year—old artist from England. He decided to create the world's largest painting. He asked children to send him pictures showing their true feelings, and he got artwork electronically submitted by children from over 140 countries.
Using the children's ideas as a starting point, he started to paint at the beginning of March last year. He tried to keep the ideas from the children's pictures in his mind. He even included the children's drawings in the artwork.
Jafri used a huge ballroom in a fancy hotel to do this. He worked long hours— often up to 20 hours a day. He hurt his back by bending over so much while he painted so that he had to put it aside and have a rest for some days in July. It took seven months, over 1 ,000 paintbrushes and 1 ,664 gallons of paint to create the painting which is over 1,600 square meters. He set a Guinness World Record for the world's largest painting—roughly the size of four basketball courts.
The artwork called The Journey of Humanity is about connection between people. Jafri hopes that no matter what difficulties people meet, it will help bring the world together and unite as one to fight against them. Since Jafri's goal was to raise money to help children, he planned to cut it up into smaller sections, so he could sell them for charity.
Jafri hoped that by selling the sections separately, he could raise $ 30 million. But when the auction (拍卖)ended on March 22, 2021, Jafri did much better than that. And he didn't have to split up the pieces. The whole artwork was sold for $62 million. That's the fourth highest price ever paid for a painting by a living artist. The buyer plans to build a special building to show the artwork off and let more people appreciate it.
4. Why did Jafri ask the kids from different countries for their pictures
A. To sell them to raise money for his painting.
B. To collect their ideas to be used in his painting.
C. To make his painting the world's largest one
D. To show the worldwide influence of his painting.
5. When did Jafri finish his painting
A. Last July. B. Last August.
C. Last September. D. In March ,2021.
6. What is the theme of Jafri's The Journey of Humanity
A. The protection of children.
B. The development of charity.
C. The appreciation of different arts.
D. The partnership between people.
7. How did Jafri feel about the outcome of the auction about his painting
A. It's unexpected. B. It's doubtful. C. It's discouraging. D. It's worrying.

Many kinds of birds migrate (迁徙) north in the spring and south in the fall, with most flying at night, looking for food and better conditions. But many birds die along the way. Some of these deaths are the result of human actions, such as hunting, or clearing huge areas of land that used to be used by migrating birds. Most importantly, experts say that as many as one billion birds may die every year in the US alone as a result of flying into buildings. Other tall structures, such as power lines and cell towers also lead to many bird deaths.
Now people in Philadelphia are working to remove at least one of the ways that migrating birds die. Birds can get disoriented by the lights and glass of buildings along their migration paths, causing them to strike buildings or windows. Buildings are a special challenge for migrating birds. The windows can reflect things like the sky or tree branches, causing birds to fly directly into the glass. Many birds migrate at night. Bright city lights add another layer of difficulty, confusing birds that might normally be guided by the stars.
Now the city has begun a program called Lights Out Philly, which requires building owners and people who live in the area to turn off all outside lights that aren’t needed between midnight and 6 in the morning. So far, the majority of the public have been taking part, including the city’s best-known and tallest buildings: One and Two Liberty Place, the Comcast towers, and the BNY Mellon Center. “We want to be part of the program in preserving the bird population,” they said.
Twice a year (from April 1 to May 31, and from August 15 to November 15), the lights on many of the city’s buildings are turned off.
8. What does paragraph 1 center on about migrating birds
A. The dangers they face.
B. The processes they experience.
C. The directions they take.
D. The barriers they overcome.
9. Which can replace the underlined word “disoriented” in paragraph 2
A. Tired. B. Blind. C. Angry. D. Lost.
10. What is most people’s attitude to the program
A. Tolerant. B. Positive. C. Disapproving. D. Ambiguous.
11. What is the suitable title for the text
A. Birds Meet Dangers While Migrating
B. Migrations Lead to Mass die-offs of Birds
C. Philadelphia Goes Dark to Protect Birds
D. Birds Migrate to Look for Better Conditions
D
In 2016, Japanese scientists found a kind of bacteria, which they called Ideonella sakainesis, could “eat” plastic.
The secret for Ideonella sakainesis is enzymes (酶) used by bacteria and other cells to make chemical changes happen. It uses two enzymes to turn plastic into something it can eat. What's left over afterward could be used to make new plastic. One of them, called “PETase”, is the one that breaks down the plastic. Recently, scientists have figured out a way to make the bacteria eat plastic even faster. They did some chemical work with the enzyme PETase. They thought what they did would make it eat plastic even slower. However, they were surprised to find that the change made it eat 20% faster.
This is an important step, but it will still be a while before we will know if Ideonella sakainesis can really make a difference. Everything has to be just right for it to do its work. It can't be too hot or too cold. The scientists say they'll keep exploring to make it work in all kinds of conditions. Besides, it only eats one kind of plastic called PET, which is usually used for making bottles. But scientists think it is possible that there may be other kinds of bacteria that eat other kinds of plastic. They think that even if these bacteria don't already exist, they may come along soon. Bacteria can change their habits quickly, compared to bigger life forms.
Most plastic can already be recycled, and this is really just a new way to recycle it. However, as scientists warn seriously, Ideonella sakainesis' new function does not change the fact that only about 9% of plastics actually get recycled, while the rest get thrown away. They also point out that harmful chemicals are added when plastic is made. If bacteria break down plastic in natural areas, those poisons will be given off, and could affect plants, animals, or humans.
12. How did the scientists find the fact that the bacteria eat plastic faster
A. They made changes to PETase.
B. They added more PETase to plastic.
C. They mixed plastic's two enzymes.
D. They removed enzymes from plastic.
13. What do we know about Ideonella sakainesis from paragraph 3
A. It breaks down some special kinds of plastic.
B. It eats plastic under demanding conditions.
C. It stops other bacteria possessing PETase.
D. It produces enzymes when eating plastic.
14. What do the scientists convey about plastic recycling in the last paragraph
A. They are confident to do it. B. It's hard to recycle plastic.
C. Its situation worries them. D. It has been well done so far.
15. What's the author's purpose in writing the text
A. To advocate recycling plastic.
B. To praise scientists' hard work.
C. To show severe plastic pollution.
D. To introduce a new discovery.

In the last few years, companies like oBike have begun flooding streets in places like Japan and Australia with bikes. Businessman Mike Than Tun Win realized these bikes could do much good for schoolchildren in Myanmar, of whom some walk an hour or more every day to school. Then he created LessWalk which buys up the bikes from other countries.
LessWalk modifies （改装）bikes to make them more useful for students. The rental bikes used to require a smartphone app to unlock them. LessWalk changed this for a lock with a key. They also added a second seat in the back of the bikes, allowing two children to ride to school on one bike.
Recently they're replacing the bike's regular tires with a solid tire that can't go flat. With all the changes, each bike packed attractively costs LessWalk about $35. “ Despite the cost, the benefits it can develop are well worth trying.” Than told TechCrunch.
The project bought thousands of rental bikes from failed companies and shipped them to Myanmar. The process wasn't as easy as it sounds—there was lots of paperwork concerned in moving the bikes from one country to another. But giving out the bikes takes a little longer given that LessWalk wants to make sure that the bikes go, for free, to the students who need them the most and Myanmar has a population of over 50 million people and more than nine million students. The project is working with Myanmar's government and school systems to focus on poor students walking long distances a day to school.
Than hopes to bring in as many as 100, 000 bikes and expand the program to other countries like Laos and Cambodia. Than is also hopeful that he can inspire " global friends" to follow him to put the abandoned bikes to work, instead of creating yet more urban waste.
24. How many modifications does LessWalk do to the bikes
A. 2. B. 3. C. 4. D. 5.
25. Why does it take longer to donate the recycled bikes
A. Shipping the bikes is so difficult. B. There're too many poor students.
C. The bikes need packing carefully. D. Targeted bike donation is needed.
26. Which can best describe Than Tun Win as the leader of the project
A. Ambitious. B. Encouraged. C. Well-experienced. D. Nature-loving.
27. What can be a suitable tide for the text
A. Removal of Urban Rubbish B. Recycle of Donated Bikes
C. Benefits beyond the Cost D. Students* New Vehicles

There's a well-known story in the world of literary translators about the translator who was thrilled to see his work appear at great length in an article in a popular magazine. He had translated many novels by a little-known Scandinavian novelist, who he believed had been ignored and not received the attention or praise the novelist deserved. He had devoted much time to trying to get this novelist some recognition. The article agreed with his assessment of the novelist’s works mentioning long passages from his translations.
But something was missing. The translator searched in vain for a mention of his name. It didn't appear anywhere. The translator's joy at the coverage （报道）of the author he liked was considerably ruined by this. He felt that he himself should have had some recognition in the article.
It was as if the translator did not exist, and all the efforts he had made had never happened.
Most people would agree that it was wrong of the magazine not to mention the translator.
However, it is also true that most readers themselves operate in exactly the same way, and for them it is also as if the translator didn't exist. When people read a translation of a novel, they want to feel they are reading what the novelist, and not someone else, wrote. They don't want to be reminded that they are not reading, and would not be able to read, the original novel created by the novelist, not wishing to know who the translator was or pay any attention to what they have done.
In this global age, more and more works of fiction are being translated into more and more languages. Readers are now able to experience and understand other cultures more than ever through the reading of translated novels. So the works of more and more novelists can reach people in other parts of the world. This applies not only to new novels but also to fresh translations of old classics.
28. What can we know about the translator in Paragraph 1
A. His opinion was shared by the magazine.
B. The novelist's works were his favourite.
C. He often sent articles to the magazine.
D. The novelist got famous with his help.
29. How did the translator feel when he looked closely at the article in the magazine
A. Regretful. B. Proud. C. Upset. D. Skeptical.
30. What is the third paragraph mainly about
A. The contributions of novel translators.
