二、阅读理解
Do you have a job If you do, you'll know the world of work can be tough, long hours, boring tasks and stress. But it can bring benefits too, such as a regular salary. Maybe that's why more of us are now taking on a side hustle—another name for a second job.
For some having two jobs is a necessity—a way to make ends meet and provide extra income. But it now seems that more people want to put their skills and passions into practice to make money. These tend to be entrepreneurial young people who want to work on their own projects alongside their main source of income.
According to Henley Business School, around one in four workers runs at least one side hustle business, half of which were started in the past two years. Those aged 25 to 34 are most likely to be involved, with 37 percent thought to run a sideline(副业) of some kind. It calculates that the average side hustler makes about 20 percent of their income through their second job.
But what's interesting is that many millennials(千禧一代) are turning their hand to new jobs not just for money and security. Research has found that almost three-quarters of people are following a passion or exploring a new challenge. Becci Mai Ford, who works some of the time for a telecommunications(电信) company to pay the bills, spends the rest of her time developing her craft company. She says going full-time is "not financially worth it right now but it fuels my creative soul and makes me happy".
Of course having a side hustle means you are self-employed, which can give you flexibility to work when you like, but it can be risky. You sometimes work on a zero-hour contract and may not get offered enough work. Or what was originally your passion may become more of a chore. However, this could be the best way to try out a new career or follow a passion while not giving up the day job.
1. Which of the following is NOT the reason for people to take on a side hustle
A. To make money. B. To obtain job satisfaction.
C. To have the flexibility to work. D. To enjoy a risky lifestyle.
2. How does the author explain the study from Henley Business School
A. By describing the process. B. By making a comparison.
C. By presenting research findings. D. By analyzing cause and effect.
3. What is the author's attitude towards having a second job
A. Critical. B. Indifferent. C. Neutral. D. Favorable.
A company in San Francisco, California, has found a way to turn used plastic bottles into women's shoes.
Every day, millions of Americans drink water and other liquids from plastic bottles. More than 60 million of them are thrown away each day. Many of the plastic bottles end up in landfills or are burned with other waste products.
A San Francisco-based company called Rothy's, however, turns this plastic waste into environmentally friendly shoes. Roth Martin is the company's co-founder. He explains how they turn plastic into soft material for women's feet. They take plastic, clean it, and break it down into small pieces. Then they press them through a device that makes soft fibers. Those fibers are then bonded together. This is done by a 3-D machine. It is designed to reduce waste while people are making the shoes. The knitted stuff and the inner part of the shoe are then attached to the shoe's outer part called the sole (鞋底). This outer sole is also made from environmentally friendly material: responsibly sourced no-carbon rubber.
Rothy's shoes are sold online. They are flat shoes, with either a rounded or pointed toe. They come in different colors and designs. They cost either $ 125 or $ 145 per pair, depending on the design. After American actress Gwyneth Paltrow discovered them, the demand for the shoes grew. Martin says there is no shortage of material to fill that demand. "We're not going to run out of water bottles any time soon, so we have a limitless supply of material, and I think that is a good sign for our future." When the environmentally friendly shoes wear out, customers can return them at no cost to a company that uses the recycled material to make other products.
For now, the shoes are only available to be shipped in the United States. However, the company says it will add international shops in the near future.
4.How are used plastic bottles usually dealt with
A.They are used to make shoes. B.They are buried or burned.
C.They are changed into soft material. D.They are returned to factories for reuse.
5.What does the underlined word "knitted" in the third paragraph mean
A.Combined. B.Fixed. C.Spotted. D.Repaired.
6.Which of the following directly helped to increase the sales of Rothy's shoes
A.The design and color. B.The reasonable price.
C.The power of famous people. D.The company's advertisement.
7.What is the purpose of the text
A.To advertise a new kind of shoes.
B.To describe the process of making shoes.
C.To introduce a new way of recycling plastic waste.
D.To stress the importance of environmental protection.

3.答案:with/ among
4.答案:were
5.答案:about
6.答案:on
7.答案:attached
8.答案:dealing

10.答案:Were
解析:考查虚拟语气和倒装。句意:如果我是你,我会带一些合适的礼物,比如我们自己国家的纪念品。由句意和主句谓语的形式可知此处使用了虚拟语气,表示与现在事实相反,省略了if,把be动词提前,be动词用were,故填Were。
11.答案:financial
解析:考查词性转换。句意:他们由衷地坚信政府会带领他们走出金融危机。设空处修饰其后名词,故填形容词financial。financial crisis金融危机。
12.答案:a
解析:考查冠词。句意:这个老人想为他上个月买的鸟编一个鸟笼。cage为可数名词,此处表示泛指,需用不定冠词a。
13.答案:proficiency
解析:考查名词。句意:你认为你的书面英语和英语口语熟练程度如何?由设空处前的your可知此处需用名词proficiency,意为“熟练”。
14.答案:be supervised
解析:考查被动语态。句意:驾驶学员必须由至少21岁的成年人监督(驾驶)。句中指被监督,设空处位于情态动词之后,故填be supervised。

解析:考查形容词。句意:羊毛的衣服洗的时候常缩水。此处用形容词形式woolen,意为“羊毛的”。
二、阅读理解
答案:1-3 DCC
解析:1.细节理解题。结合文章可知人们做副业是因为要赚钱、获得工作满足感和能灵活地工作,并未提及D选项“享受冒险的生活方式”。故选D。
2.推理判断题。第三段指出,根据亨利商学院的数据,大约四分之一的职工至少经营着一种副业,其中一半是在过去两年开始的。年龄在25到34岁之间的人最有可能参与,其中37%的人被认为经营着某种副业。据计算,一般从事的副业的人能通过第二份工作挣到他们收入的20%左右。由此可知,作者通过展示亨利商学院的研究结果解释了亨利商学院的研究。故选C。
3.推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,作者对于做副业的态度是中立的。故选C。
答案:4-7.BACC
解析:4.考查细节理解:根据第二段中的 "Many of the plastic bottles end up in landfills or are burned with other waste products" 可知,废弃塑料瓶的处理方法通常是被填埋或焚烧。故B项正确。
5.考查词义猜测。根据第三段中的 "Those fibers are then bonded together" 可推知, The knitted stuff 指的就是上文中提到的结合在一起的纤维,故A项符合语境。
6.考查细节理解。根据第四段中的 "After American actress Gwyneth Paltrow discovered them, the demand for the shoes grew" 可知,是 Gwyneth Paltrow 的名人效应直接促使了 Rothy's 鞋子销量的增加。故C项正确。
